Rewriting Your Soul's Code: You Are Not Your Programming

Michael Herst00:00:00

Hey, one more thing before you go. What if the beliefs you left behind are still running you?And what if guilt, obedience and self denial aren't virtues but inherited scripts designed to keep you small? What if there was a new way of thinking that could rewrite your soul's code?In this week's episode of One With Me before youe Go, I sit down with Reginald Martin. He's a spiritual architect, a metaphysician. We'll talk about that. And the creator of cometophysics. Again, we'll talk about that.It's a soul level methodology that helps seekers, leaders and creatives rewire the subconscious architecture of their identity. Reginald didn't just walk away from Christianity. He stepped out of a system that equated suffering with worthiness and obedience and holiness.Through ancient kemetic sciences and modern psychological insight, Reginald creates a blueprint for liberation. Not just to deconstruction, but resurrection.His work reveals how spiritual programming lingers long after we've left the church, shaping how we lead, love and create, and more importantly, how we can rewrite it. This isn't just a conversation about belief. It's a reckoning, a remembering, and a call to reclaim your soul's original code.I'm your host, Michael Herst. Welcome to One more thing before you go.In this episode, together we unpack how subconscious religious programming shapes our identity and limits power. Why guilt is often a leash, not a compass. How come metaphysic physics can rewire your inner operating system.And the difference between obedience and alignment and how to lead, create and live from the soul, not just shame. Welcome to the show.

Reginald Martin00:01:51

Thank you, Michael. So glad to be here. I'm excited.

Michael Herst00:01:54

Your life is. It's an amazing journey you've taken in your life.

Reginald Martin00:01:59

Oh, most definitely, most definitely. It has been an amazing journey. I've went through the normal ups and downs and through that, I guess I've just learned to kind of surf the.

Michael Herst00:02:11

Waves, you know, I think that's the best way to go. Life lessons is the best educator, isn't it?

Reginald Martin00:02:17

Absolutely, positively. And I think that that's one of the things that the ancients were teaching was really how do we navigate life?Because for them we came here for a reason, you know, we came here by choice, you know, and, and they were giving us blueprints oftentimes of how to navigate life and that, that's the perspective that I operate from with cometa.

Michael Herst00:02:41

Physics, which I can't. I mean, it's gonna be exciting to get into that. But I do like to start at the Beginning. Where'd you grow up?

Reginald Martin00:02:49

I actually grew up in Dallas, Texas. So that's where I live now. And grew up in a single parent home. Grew up in poverty, so, you know, just dealing with mentality.So ended up having a lot of questions because we, I was in a staunch Christian family. I mean, man, when my family got together for a gathering, you know, it was almost like a, a religious war broke out.And these were all Christians, so. But they had a. Had an idea that their belief in Jesus was the right belief.And anybody else that didn't kind of believe like they did, then you were suspect. Yeah, that was kind of.

Michael Herst00:03:40

Yeah, yeah, I can relate to that. I grew up also with a single parent. I lost my father at a very early age. And so I respect that. And you know, we.My mother, I grew up Catholic and I am not a practicing Catholic. I'm here to admit I haven't been a practicing Catholic for a really long time because of the.And this is my opinion, I said, you know, they were a little hypocritical in certain aspects and they were too overreaching in other aspects, and they didn't live up to par in many aspects. And my mother did the same thing. She went.We had, in my whole family, we had Catholics, we had Southern Baptists, we had Baptists, we had Nazarenes, we had Mormons, a wide variety. So that little war you're talking about, been, been there, been there, done that. Every time we had a family gathering.What'd you want to be when you grew up? Did you go to college? University?

Reginald Martin00:04:40

I ended up, well, I guess when I was young, I wanted to be. What did I want to be? I wanted to be in the NBA. So that, that was one of the things. So from a very young age, man, I played basketball relentlessly.And that actually paved my way to go to college because I wouldn't have been able to pay for it any other way. I ended up getting a basketball scholarship. So that took me to actually a religious college, this college of all things.But by that time I considered myself atheist. So it was an interesting few years at that Christian college, but I wouldn't have traded it for anything. So I wanted to be an NBA player.Got to play against some of them in practice and stuff like that. But of course, I never made it to the NBA.

Michael Herst00:05:33

Well, yes, you know, life puts us on our path, like sometimes what we're supposed to be. And I believe, I do believe in the universe putting us where we need to be.

Reginald Martin00:05:42

That makes two of us.

Michael Herst00:05:44

We may not be having this conversation if, you know, if you don't want the other direction or I may have seen you at a basketball game. Yeah, one of the two.

Reginald Martin00:05:55

Right, right.

Michael Herst00:05:56

You said you, you know, in some of the stuff that I have read in your bio and everything else, you, you didn't just leave Christianity, did you? You left kind of an identity script.What was, kind of, what, what was the moment you realized that something deeper was running in you because you were an atheist, even though you grew up in a very religious background. Can I ask why? What turned you into an atheist coming up from that background?

Reginald Martin00:06:24

No, that's a very good question. Because it really started when I was 15 years old and I can just, just remember the age that, that I asked my mother a question.And so, and I had been pondering this for a while, you know, these, these questions. But the question that I asked my mom was, I gave her a scenario.I said, mom, I said, if a person who's Jewish that does not believe in Jesus as their savior, they do good all their life and then they die and, and not as a believer, they're going to go to hell. This is what I'm taught. But a person who can be a mass murderer can be on their deathbed and accept Jesus as their savior at.On their deathbed and they can go to heaven. So you're telling me that a person that can do good all their life and then a person who can do bad all their life goes to heaven?I said, something does not seem right about that for me. Is, is that true? Would that person that's Jewish go to hell?And Michael, she looked at me and she goes, yeah, there was no other explanation after that. It was just, that was it. That was the truth, her truth, and that was it.And that that answer left me with so many questions and, and just not really even wanting to accept something like that, you know, that a, that a good person could go to hell. That, that just I, that just, just seems so unfathomable to me, especially for something simple.

Michael Herst00:08:04

So I'm sorry. Yeah, I say something as simple as not believing in Jesus. Let me see.

Reginald Martin00:08:10

Yeah.And, and for Christians, of course, you know, that is the ultimate step is just the belief in the faith that, you know, Jesus is the savior, you know, but just the idea that a person, it didn't matter how good a person was, it was just, just had to believe and accept something.

Michael Herst00:08:33

Yeah. I find that, I mean, this, again, this is just a personal perspective of my own.And the fact that I'm Watching my mother desperately trying to find a home in a church, in some form of a church or religion, because I grew up in a very dysfunctional family. We grew up poor as well, and it was very dysfunctional. Both my parents were alcoholics.And when my mother got a divorce, she was excommunicated from the Catholic Church because she couldn't go to church, couldn't take communion, all because she was divorced now. And the. The us Kids, we'd go. We could go to church, but we weren't allowed to take communion either because our parents got divorced, which I.Which that's what turned me a little away from that. It's like I thought you should. You should reach out to somebody if they're having issues or problems or if they're alone now, you should help them.You should help the family. And it didn't happen that way. So I started questioning at about that same time in regard to. And I think you call it, you left an identity script.The identity of my mother was she. She was a Catholic churchgoing woman. She went religiously every week. She went to, you know, midnight mass.She did everything, everything, everything she was supposed to. But the minute she divorced, then all of a sudden, you're a sinner.

Reginald Martin00:10:01

Right? None of it, none of the other stuff matters.

Michael Herst00:10:03

Yeah, none of the other stuff mattered. You know, she. She gave money. Even though, I mean, my mother was. My mother was single mother growing up in the 70s.She, she, you know, women in the 70s couldn't even have a. Their own checking account till 1974. So, you know, you could only be a server or you could be a secretary, or you were limited with what you can do.Struggling. But she would still always give to the church. But they turned her back, turned their back on her.So, you know, that that's, you know, I think that we have something in common in the. In a way, because it was a. It was a moment for me, like a moment for you. We realized that, you know, something deeper was kind of embedded in us.

Reginald Martin00:10:50

Yeah.And, Michael, what I've seen just through my practice is that, you know, so many of us and, And I. I know that that's why I, you know, have even amassed, you know, a number of people that have followed my YouTube channel, you know, over a hundred thousand people, as. Because our. Many of our stories are so similar, you know.

Michael Herst00:11:10

Yeah.

Reginald Martin00:11:11

So it's just. It's just yours, your story and my story is so common that, you know, it's ridiculous that it's so common. You know, my mother dealt with.Because of the belief of being a born sinner and stuff like that. You, you imagine having a child out of wedlock, which was me at the age of 16.

Michael Herst00:11:33

Yeah.

Reginald Martin00:11:34

Okay.You know, the idea that, you know, being sexual, being sinful, being all of that, and you are carrying your sin, you know, you are, you, you can't hide from what you've done. So, Michael, that, that basically destroyed my mother mentally.She dealt with psychological issues and have dealt with psychological issues for her whole life.And I think a big part of that was because how she was taught to see herself as something is broken and something is sensible and something was wrong with her. So I've seen that, I've lived that, you know, through her, you know, so, so a lot of those. And a lot of people have dealt with that same stuff.I, I know.

Michael Herst00:12:28

Do you, do you think those early beliefs in the humility, the like, the obedience to the church kind of a thing, and the suffering, like what your mother had gone through, what my mother gone through, things like that, do you think that that shaped your sense of self, who you are today?

Reginald Martin00:12:45

Oh, absolutely, yeah. It shaped just that.It shaped my sense of self and how I looked at myself because I didn't know any other frame, understand, so, so I didn't, I didn't have.So the idea that I was a born sinner, that I was a, you know, a wretch, you know, and all of that, that was supposed to be said in a way that humbles you, that makes you think that you're nothing special, that you know those types of things, but that impacts you in so many other ways in so many areas of your life. So that, that's how I grew up thinking of myself and, and just interacting with the world.So, and, and I know from, you know, when, when things happen negatively in your life, the default programming was, am I being punished? Yeah, you know, that was, that was one of the first thoughts.And of course, if we're being punished, then we had to accept the punishment because there's no way that we could fight against God. And, and of course, if we were being punished, we were deserving of that punishment, you know, it wasn't to be questioned. So.Yeah, so you, all of that, all of that training impacted me in a way that, that carried on for many years.And quite honestly, there are still layers that I bump into now that I didn't even realize as you, as you going on through life, you know, so we don't just get over that stuff, you know, overnight.

Michael Herst00:14:22

I like how you call, you call it and refer to it as mental malware.

Reginald Martin00:14:27

Mental malware? Yes, sir.

Michael Herst00:14:29

Yeah, I think.I think because, you know, it's same thing, you know, again, I walked away from that religion, the organized religion, a long, long time ago, but I was about 16 years old, 17 years old. I'm very spiritual. I do believe that we have a higher power. I do believe that the universe. We're all connected. You and I are connected.We're all connected. We're all human beings. We all have that uniqueness with us. And I do believe from that perspective.But I don't believe in organized religion any longer for that same reason. I think it is mental malware the first time I've heard that. So I smiled just a little when I read menthol malware.I said, oh, yeah, that's the word I'm looking for. Or the phrase. Do you think that kind of mental malware, how does that. How does that affect our subconscious programming to show up in everyday life?I think we kind of might have just touched on it a little bit. But do you think that we are indoctrinated from that for a reason?

Reginald Martin00:15:42

Yeah, I think that it ends up impacting us. And this is where I have to really go into the comedic belief system and really what.One of the reasons why I got involved with the comedic ideas were at first, I was trying to find out about Law of Attraction, okay? And. And it. And really trying because having grown up in church, anytime somebody.Anytime somebody teaches something, my automatic default now is to question what they're teaching, because I was told in church not to, you know, and that didn't go too well for me. So when I heard the secret, I basically said, hey, let me find out if there's truth behind this, where it comes from.To make a long story short, I ended up finding out about the secret, where it was taught and where it came from. But it also taught me or helped me to uncover some stuff about Christianity that I didn't realize was even discoverable.So a lot of the stuff that we were taught about being a born sinner, stuff like that was actually came from ancient comedic or ancient Egyptian concepts that Christianity distorted. Those distortions impact us mentally and psychologically for life. And probably you grew up in it, grew up young as a Catholic.I was indoctrinated in it from birth as a Protestant. And those of us that are indoctrinated early spend our entire lifetime getting over that indoctrination, if we ever try to get over it.

Michael Herst00:17:32

And I think to this day, I still fall back into old routines sometimes, especially if I'm having, I mean, I, I, I've been through eight operations. I went through a lot of physical therapy. I spent four years in a wheelchair, was told I'd never walk again.I had a lot of reflection back on that and went back to the same methodologies that you spoke about with, you know, what did I do wrong? I was a cop. I was doing my job. I was arresting a bad guy, taking a bad guy off the street.Why does he get to sit and sit in jail, you know, and watch TV and get his meals fixed for him, everything. And I'm sitting in a wheelchair. My kids have to grow up with that. My wife has to deal with that. I have to deal with that.And I was angry and resentful.

Reginald Martin00:18:20

Yes, A little depressed.

Michael Herst00:18:21

And again, why me? Why did this happen to me? And then I started questioning whether or not I did something wrong and I just, I had to stop myself.Yeah, so, so I agree with you.It even, I mean, where we're men of a certain age, but even, you know, years and years and years later, decades later, sometimes we still fall back into that because like you said, I think you hit it. It's kind of embedded in us so deeply.

Reginald Martin00:18:53

Yes. It is literally mental malware. And if you don't and if you're not aware of it, you can't even work to extract that malware from your mental system.

Michael Herst00:19:06

Yeah.Do you think our societal systems have kind of brought the implemented or not intimate, more like integrated faith education, leadership and so to reinforce those limiting beliefs and those scripts?

Reginald Martin00:19:25

I think that they do. And I think that it on some level society, we have a religious society because we feel like religion is supposed to help us morally faithfully.So our whole society is constructed with an underpinning of these ideas, you know, and a lot of people look at them in a way that if those ideas are gone, then society will be in chaos. Well, the ideas are around and society is still in chaos.

Michael Herst00:20:06

That's fine.

Reginald Martin00:20:07

So something doesn't, it just doesn't what we're told and then what reality is doesn't add up, you know, know, so, so that started, started me to questioning just so much of, of this stuff, you know, so, and I've always been like a, I guess a, an amateur psychologist. So much so that I ended up getting a degree in it in college. But, but I've always liked to ask why do people do what they do?And when I, you know, started to study religion and how that impacts us us, you know, just As a. From an individual perspective and from a societal perspective, even from.I looked at my culture and how many of us are very, very religious, but our communities are broken, you know, and. And I attributed that to the idea that we are broken or we're taught that we're broken. And from comedic.From a comedic lens, the inside of us is going to be reflected back to us as life. So life becomes the feedback. So your belief system is reflected back as your life. In a lot of ways, that kind.

Michael Herst00:21:25

Of falls along the same line of what you were talking about with the secret in the manifestation. What we believe.

Reginald Martin00:21:32

Thoughts become things.

Michael Herst00:21:33

Yeah. What we believe that we become. And. And, you know, I wholeheartedly believe that. It's an interesting perspective.Can I touch back on something that you mentioned earlier in regard to the Egyptian talking about the idea of the we've been born sinners came from the Egyptians. Can we talk about that a minute?

Reginald Martin00:22:02

Now, that idea didn't come from the Egyptians.

Michael Herst00:22:04

Didn't come from the Egyptians.

Reginald Martin00:22:06

That was something that Christianity distorted. Okay? So the way that the Egyptians taught and. And I, I switched between comedic and Egyptian. So cometic is just the.The prehistoric Egyptian societies that. That were part of that area. But the ancient cometic teachings was that we were all. We're first of all, the metaphysical world.The world that, as that souls come from is the real world. Okay? So souls project into the physical. So we, the souls project an aspect of themselves or ourselves into the physical. Okay. That the.The soul is an aspect of the creator, the light of the creator and the will of the creator being projected into the physical to experience the physical. Okay?Christianity changed that idea and said that when we were souls projected into the physical, instead of a projection, we failed because we were punished. Okay? That's the idea of the. The angel that Lucifer or Satan was the. The angel that rebelled against God.But from a comedic perspective, Satan was actually simply the idea of us falling into duality. Okay? So Satan, which was the ancient Egyptian idea of set, which was the. The letters ST became the idea of opposition. Okay?Later that word became Satan through the Hebrew idea. And even the Hebrew idea, the word meant the original meaning of Satan was adversary, okay? Not evil, not the devil or anything like that.So in that context, it had the same meaning of the. As the ancient Egyptian idea of simple opposition. Okay? So from a comedic perspective, we are all born divine.We are the divine emanation or a fragment of the divine emanation experience in life as a creator. So we're born divine, not sinful. That's the comedic perspective on that.

Michael Herst00:24:36

What an interesting and unique perspective. I think that got lost with time. And like you said, it was distorted to a point that it's unrecognizable in reality from that. That's brilliant.You just opened my eyes in my mind. I'm going to do a little more research myself because I think I have found that a new path to go down to kind of check out.So from a cometic perspective, what is cometophysics? And, like, how does it differ from traditional metaphysical or spiritual teachings along that line?

Reginald Martin00:25:19

The only difference is that it is through the comedic lens. Okay. So what I had to do is I was teaching what was called cometic spirituality for a long time. But what I found was, is that there is a.There's already a preconceived notion of what comedic was. Okay. And. Which was basically teaching history, teaching the historical aspects of really ancient African spirituality. But that also made people.When I talked about comedic, it made people assume a. A. A historical perspective. Okay. But I wanted to talk about the spiritual system, which was more about metaphysics and the idea of spirituality. Okay.So outside of the context of history a lot of times. So I coined the phrase cometaphysics, which is the ancient idea. The ka is the ancient Egyptian idea of the soul. Okay.And then metaphysics, of course, is the philosophy of spirituality is what it is. So I. I coined the phrase cometaphysics so I could reposition myself away from historical ideas and teachings to more. Let's talk about the.How this stuff impacts us on a daily basis from a spiritual and metaphysical perspective. So that's what cometa physics is. So it's the idea of the. The Egyptian car, which was their term for the soul. And then metaphysics.

Michael Herst00:27:00

You know, I. I think, you know, I believe, obviously, I believe we all have a soul, and I think that their soul lives on, you know, after we depart this world and we come back again. Which is what the Egyptians have always believed, obviously.

Reginald Martin00:27:12

Yes.

Michael Herst00:27:12

They always buried.

Reginald Martin00:27:13

Always they.

Michael Herst00:27:14

They, you know, they buried them with everything so that they knew they were coming back. And you had this, and you had this, you had this with you when you come back kind of thing. How does. Do you think that.Based upon that theory, that methodology, that practice, do you think our soul has a blueprint? I mean, from what I've learned in my conversations over the last almost six years now, I've had a lot of conversations with.We as an individual have a blueprint that we can go back and kind of Check and look and say, oh, I'm supposed to do this, I'm supposed to do that. And, you know, this one. This one, I'm supposed to learn this.You know, I'll come back until I relearn it or, you know, figure it out or whatever, and then I can move on to the next level. Does comedic science kind of follow along the same lines about.

Reginald Martin00:28:07

Yes.

Michael Herst00:28:08

Souls blueprint?

Reginald Martin00:28:09

Yes, yes. They. They actually are the ones who instituted a lot of those ideas. So the idea of you. I don't know if you've heard of the. The. The.What they call the God Osiris and then in the Greek. That's the Greek name for it. And. And then the God Heru or Horus. Okay, Are the two Greek names?Well, this is actually connected back to the idea of Jesus Christ. This is where this idea came from. Jesus Christ. But in ancient comedic terms, the. The. These were two different functions of nature, okay.Which they call netters. Okay. So Horus, which was Heru in ancient Egypt, and Asar in ancient Egypt, was. Was the. The idea of the cross Christ. Okay?But these were functions, two separate functions that Christianity fused together to make the idea of Jesus Christ. What Jesus Christ was, was actually a Gnostic personification of the idea of the Revealer, okay. Which is basically the.Think of the concept of us having, aha. Moments. Okay? The light bulb comes on, okay? The idea that. That when we go through and have our aha.Moments, then we become enlightened, and it ends up, on some level, bringing peace within our life, peace and reconciliation. That's the idea of the Christ, the Krst. Okay? These concepts, Michael, are a part of all spiritual systems.It is only Christianity that has basically historicized these ideas where in reality, they were ancient philosophical concepts personified.

Michael Herst00:30:14

You know, I find it interesting that, you know, I have Native American friends and family, and, you know, they kind of follow along what you speak about with. With that connection with the universe in that way and mother nature and the earth and what our soul is supposed to do and. And how we interact with.With each other in regard to all of that. In particular, not necessarily in a. A, a, a specific religious aspect. This is. You got to believe this. You can't believe that. You got to do this.You can't do that. They believe in harmony with nature. They believe in harmony with our soul. And so that's.I find that interesting because you go from ancient Egypt, for example, and then you see Native Americans who they never met, at least that we know of.

Reginald Martin00:31:06

Right, right.

Michael Herst00:31:07

I should put that out there, to put that out there.

Reginald Martin00:31:09

There are some. You can go back and they might have met, so a little overlapping there.Yes, but, yeah, but, but I, I get what you're saying, and you're, you're the connection that you're making as far as the similarities really, when you start looking at spiritual systems around the world, the outlier is Christianity.

Michael Herst00:31:30

Yeah, yeah, I agree with that.Same thing with Buddhist, with Zen, everything, all the, all these philosophies that go along this same line about the spirituality, how we're connected, how our souls connect to the universe in one source and live on.I have found, at least in my experiences as well, I have found that the only, again, outlier, like you said, is the religious aspect, the organized religious aspect. That said, the dogma. Yes, dogma, yes. You know, you, you live once, you either die, you go to heaven, you go to hell, or you go to purgatory.In Catholic, you had purgatory, so if you did something really bad, you were in purgatory forever. It means your soul wandered around forever, no place to go. So, yeah, I mean, the rest of my day, I know what I'm doing for the rest of my day.

Reginald Martin00:32:31

Well, let me, let me give you, let me give you some and, and, and your audience some ideas that they can go and research because what will happen is invariably, and this is what I've, you know, found and researched for, you know, over 20 years, Michael, to confirm a lot of these ideas. So I'm just not like, making them up. I can back them up. Okay, but look up the idea of Platonic theophysy, okay?And this is why I say Platonic theophysy, because Plato actually distilled a lot of the ancient Egyptian teachings into what became his theophysy.But you got to understand too, that around the Mediterranean back in the 3rd and 4th centuries BCE they were all teaching these ideas all around the Mediterranean, okay? So it wasn't just the Greeks, you know, it wasn't just the Egyptians that were, that were talking about these ideas.It was all around tyranny that, that spread from, from the Mediterranean into the, the Eastern religions and our Eastern spiritual systems. But they, but the Platonic. The opposite. When you understand it, then you'll start to understand actually what Christianity changed. Okay?Because again, the, the idea from, from a kemetic perspective, the idea that we call Jesus actually came from the kemetic idea of ye sai and the Y and I are interchangeable in ancient times. Yay, USA is the primordial light fragmenting and in and dispersing into physicality. Okay. So that primordial light is in all of us.That word ye, USA y or I u s A became Yeshua in Hebrew. Okay. And the sa was sh is simply a little different nuance about the fire. Okay. Yeshua or ye, USA in Greek became yes, yes, I U S E, O U S. Yes. Okay.So that name, you can track the name changes through languages, but once you get to see what the names actually meant philosophically, then you'll see that it changed from a philosophy to a person with Christianity. And what I like to say is that what was new in Christianity was not true, and what was true was not new.So you can trace all of this back thousands of years, and you can see where Platonic theophysy is talked about in many different spiritual systems. Many different spiritual systems have saviors, but they're not literal.

Michael Herst00:36:00

It's not literal. That's interesting. Yeah. I'm going to. Thank you, Reginald. I'm down another. I'm down another rabbit hole.

Reginald Martin00:36:09

It's fascinating.

Michael Herst00:36:10

I'm telling you it is. Yes. It's always fascinating me. And obviously we're all seeking.We are all, hopefully, we are all always seeking information, knowledge, and desire to get a deeper understanding of. Of number one, why we're here, who we are, why we're here, what we're here for, and so forth. Do you think, help decoding.Do you think kemetic science helps us to access our soul's original blueprint, to allow us to understand from that perspective of who we are and why we're here?

Reginald Martin00:36:42

Absolutely. It liberates us. You know, and this is another thing that I'd like to say is a lot of times Christians think I'm attacking Christianity, but I'm not.What I'm doing is helping people get beyond. Especially people that have. Have deconstructed, helping them get beyond the guilt, the shame for even questioning. Okay.But also giving them a way to reconstruct.Because for me, having been an atheist for a while, I deconstructed, but I stayed in that limbo state for almost 20 years, you know, because I didn't know anything else.But comedic science helped me to reconstruct in a way that it actually empowered me to see myself as a soul having a human experience and to understand that we are here to learn forever, not burn forever.

Michael Herst00:37:36

Okay, that's a nice.

Reginald Martin00:37:37

So. So it will. Actually the. What I like to say is the truth is more empowering than the lie that we were taught through religion and religions.The dogma is a lie.

Michael Herst00:37:51

Yeah, that resonates with me a lot. I like those statements.Speaking of that you guide people through identity resurrection, I think that identity resurrection is a unique way of putting. I almost say reborn, but for us.

Reginald Martin00:38:11

To realize, yeah, you're speaking the ancient language. That's what this stuff meant.

Michael Herst00:38:17

Yeah. So it. I think that. What is that? What does that process look like when we put it into practice? I mean, I think we all. It's interesting.I get so excited. I'm going to start talking really fast, and then there's so many questions that are still, like, running around in my head.It's interesting the way this all pieces together, because I think that as I always believe this and I practice this, I know that there is something bigger out there for us. I know that there is more opportunity for us as a human being, as an individual, as a spiritual being.So in helping somebody through this identity resurrection, this rebirth kind of purpose, what does that process look like for if somebody wanted to go through it?

Reginald Martin00:39:07

Yeah. And. And part of that is like. Like, you know, I teach in my class. My classes. My. My content on Substack is. Is how I help people through that.But what that looks like is, is that first you have to literally get rid of that frame that you are getting given of being a born sinner. Okay. And a lot of people can logically say, oh, that, you know, that doesn't make sense.But when you're deconstructing, you need to be able to reconstruct too. Okay. So the reconstructing part is to go back to the ancient teachings, the ancient comedic teachings, which was the source of these ideas.And I can show you through the classes, courses, articles and stuff that. The content that I do, I can literally show you what it meant before it was distorted.And in that way, you're able to say, okay, yeah, that doesn't even make sense. This makes more sense. And it gives you a new frame to think inside. Okay. To think about your life in a new context.So instead of being a born sinner, ancient comedic teachings are, you are born divine. And let me tell you, explain this philosophically, because it actually makes more sense than what we were taught as Christians.So Christianity teaches us that. That the Creator created the world and then created mankind and humankind. Okay? And we are his creation to do as. As the Creator sees fit.You know, whatever. Okay? We need to form a relationship with the Creator. Creator. Because. Informal relationship of something that is external to us. Okay.We need to believe that the Creator came down as this one particular special being. And Incarnated to, you know, save us from this. This original sin. But the ancient comedic teachings are.Is that there is only one source of all creation in the entire universe, whether. Whether that be physical, metaphysical, different planets, different solar systems, whatever is. There is one creator and one source.So the analogy that I like to use to explain the ancient comedic concept is if you think of the creator as an ocean of consciousness, okay, everything is. Is in that ocean and imbued with that consciousness, that. That. That life, that fire, everything that includes us.So we can consider ourselves drops in that ocean, okay? But we are also oceans in the drop, or the ocean is also in the drop, okay? So we are one and the same.The drops are not the same magnitude as the ocean, but we are the same stuff. So in that sense, it's a new frame to think of yourself as being born divine. You are the creator, you are the source being.Living as a human for a short time. That's a whole new frame to think about yourself in. Okay?That's part of reconstructing, is to first change that old belief that something is wrong with you, that you're broken, and that you need saving. Saving to the new idea that you are born divine and your life is about recognizing and developing that divinity within you.It's about developing yourself as that spark and learning the power that you have to create your life on your terms. That's reconstruction.

Michael Herst00:43:01

Yeah. Yeah, I love that. I. I've never agreed with the. The concept that we are born with as a center. My wife's grandfather was a preacher, and he. He.His whole life, he and his wife both traveled everywhere, all over the world. And. Because that was their calling, and I respect that. But he used to always. We send this stuff to the kids, our kids. I have two daughters.We have two daughters. That was just a little slip. Sorry, Diane. We have two daughters. And the. He would send these things all the time. And, you know, he'd send a.Send them like a birthday gift, and it'd be a little check, little something. And then he'd put in this stuff in there about, you're born a sinner, you're a sinner, you're a sinner.And I finally had to have a conversation with him where I said, please don't do that anymore because I'm just throwing that stuff away. And I'm throwing it away because I cannot believe. And I do not believe that we are born as a sinner, that you have not committed any sins yet.You were just born. You don't know what sin Is you don't know what's right, what's wrong, what to do here, what to do there. You don't know what that is.So you can't be born a sinner. So please stop doing that. So it took a little agree with that took several conversations.He finally stopped sending the material because I said, I'm just throwing it away. He said, we'll give to somebody else.I said, I'm not going to give to somebody else because I don't believe in what you're doing with regards to this. These are children. When a baby's born and you look that baby in the eye, I'm looking down like I'm looking at the baby.You look down at that baby and you see that joy and the light and the life in that child. There is no way that that child is a sinner. That child is a gift. You know, it. It just irritates me, Michael, when you.

Reginald Martin00:44:56

Start to think about it and analyze it, it makes absolutely no sense logically other than to. But because we're told to believe. Yeah, we have. We accepted it.

Michael Herst00:45:09

Yep. Yep. That indoctrination, you know, we can call it. We'll just call it like it is. It's like an indoctrination.

Reginald Martin00:45:16

It's mental malware.

Michael Herst00:45:17

It is. I'm going to use that. I'm sorry, I'm going to have to borrow that from you because you go right ahead. I love that analogy.How can we begin to reprogram our guilt, our shame in the root of all that if we were indoctrinated? That malware is in our head. Do you have any tips that we, as an individual can. Can maybe.

Reginald Martin00:45:39

Yeah. And it starts with. Absolutely. And it starts with breaking that old frame. Just. Just like I was discussing about the idea of being.You being born a born sinner or born divine. Really, which one makes more sense, you know, so as soon as you break that frame and. And you release those beliefs, then the. All the tentacles that.That were streaming from that belief of being a born sinner is shattered. You just need somewhere else to go then. Okay. And then you can go to. And.And once you start to research these ideas and you recognize that there is only one source and that you are from that source is easy to understand and accept that you are born divine.

Michael Herst00:46:31

Yes.

Reginald Martin00:46:32

So the difference between Christianity or. And any. Really any. I'll have to speak to Christianity because that's what I know, right?The difference between Christianity and spirituality, the difference between religion and spirituality is the idea. Religion says that. That God is Something outside of us that we must form a relationship with. It's external, okay? It's not even a part of us. It's.It's an external thing that we have to get its blessings. We have to get everything okayed. You know, we. We have to hopefully do the right thing to where God will accept us. Okay?And one of those things, of course, God is unconditionally loving, except for the condition that you got to accept Jesus. If you don't accept that condition, then the unconditional is not acceptable.

Michael Herst00:47:38

I have to laugh. That's all we can do is laugh. Because it's interesting. It is. You go back to God is loving. God is all loving.Unless you do this or you don't do this or you do this or you don't do this. And I'm pointing to the do's and the don'ts for anybody. And to me it's like, okay, well you can be all loving or you can be. You can't be bothered.Number one. I think that I have always believed, and I've come to believe in the fact that we are all from one source.And I do believe that there is a power there. I do believe that there's a God there. I do believe that we're all from the same source. That's why I believe we're all connected. We are all connected.We're all one big family. There's a lot of sibling rivalry and.

Reginald Martin00:48:37

A lot of it is caused because we. Many people want to believe that they have the exclusive being the chosen people or whatever. You know, I mean, come on.

Michael Herst00:48:45

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

Reginald Martin00:48:46

And that's, that's just. Again, it becomes.When you go back to the ancient concepts, the idea that we are all one, it just, it makes so much more sense, you know, and then even the idea of a chosen people from. From an. And. And this is something I actually wrote about on my substack blog here last week about the idea of the chosen people.And really the chosen people is a self choice of following the universal laws. And which is one of those is understanding that you are connected to everything and that is not something outside of.

Michael Herst00:49:25

You includes the earth where we live, Mother Nature.

Reginald Martin00:49:30

Yeah, absolutely. Earth is alive, you know, so. Absolutely so. And, and I, I even go to Michael, this, this is not the only place that there is life. The Earth there has.We got. We have trillions of stars. What are the odds that we are the only life in the entire universe?

Michael Herst00:49:54

Yeah. Arrogance would have you believe otherwise. Arrogance and ignorance.

Reginald Martin00:50:01

Arrogance and ignorance and I like to say a lot of times that Christians can be arrogant in their ignorance.

Michael Herst00:50:08

Absolutely, absolutely. And we're not bashing Christians. If that's what you feel and that's what you want and that's fine, I respect that.But I think we all have the opportunity to open our eyes and kind of open our hearts, our minds and our souls.The whole idea as we as human beings is to connect our mind, our body and our soul to live a valued life and to move that life forward in a positive way and for those around us in the same form.So in doing so, the best way to do that is to seek the knowledge, gain the knowledge and grasp the knowledge that allows us to connect our mind, our body and our soul, and how we connect to the universe. Universe, and then put that forward in our own lives, in those people around us.

Reginald Martin00:50:55

So, and I, I think the ultimate deal with all of that, Michael, is that how do we want to live our life? You know, how do we want to express who we are through this life?You know, and, and, and one of the ways that the ancient Egyptians taught that was you live life through your joy. You know, you, you let joy be the guide for you, really finding your purpose, connecting to your, your, your soul's purpose.When you, when you act through joy, which is the same vibration, because the, I don't see the Creator as a, as a being. Okay. The ancient Egyptians didn't see it as a being. It is a field, a form force that all of us can interact with to create the life that we desire.It's an energy. Yeah. And, and using that from an energetic perspective, that's really how you end up integrating mind, body and soul.And when you understand that you live life from your joy, then you won't accept ideas of sacrifice, of being a born sinner, of being all this negativity that ends up being vibrational, operationally antithetical to living life through love and peace and joy.

Michael Herst00:52:15

I agree. Well said. Profound. Well said. Do you think there's an in between space that we should be aware of?

Reginald Martin00:52:23

We go through it every night when we dream. We literally. You're literally more aware and conscious when you are asleep and you go into that in between state.And you commiserate with people, with your past, your loved ones, past lives. You commiserate with all of that when you're sleeping. That's why dreams can seem so real.

Michael Herst00:52:49

Real, yeah. That's an interesting way. I hadn't thought about the dream state being the in between it really.And to be honest, when you think about the in between. And again, this is just remnants of stuff still embedded in my head which I know are false, but it reminds me of like purgatory.That's what, that's what the Catholics put it. You were in purgatory. That's kind of in between. You're not in heaven, you're not in hell, you're in purgatory.You wander around aimlessly for eternity, not knowing where to go, what to do, you know, what direction.

Reginald Martin00:53:30

They distorted so many of these teachings and a lot of it, they just, they've accumulated the distortions over centuries. So they've had centuries to put a lot of the stuff together, but that was not part of the original teachings.From the ancient Ketic perspective, there are basically three levels. Okay? So there is what, what we call the heavens. Then there is the, the middle, the middle area which they call the Duat.And then there is physical earth or the physical plane. But there are all different vibrational constructs that we can experience at any time.Okay, but the idea of, of you going to hell for eternity and stuff like that, they had no concepts like that. As a matter of fact, the idea of the Lake of Fire was actually where souls are born. Born.In other words, the Lake of Fire is the Creator, the will and, and, and, and, and the will of the Creator was imaged or use of the, the light. And fire was a metaphor for that will of the CR. Creator that fragments into reality and into the universe.But the Lake of Fire was the birthplace of souls, not the end place. So again, it's a different shift.They literally flipped so many of these ideas to make it something negative and controlling when it wasn't supposed to be that way.

Michael Herst00:55:08

I think that we have an opportunity as an individual, as a human being, as a soul to have a deeper reflection in regard to why, again I said it earlier, why we're here, what our purpose is, how we can integrate and how we can improve ourselves. And I think that you, you present that in. Let's talk about how somebody can connect. You connect to. Let me try that again in English.Let's talk about how somebody can connect with, with you and learn more about Cometa physics and how they can improve themselves or open, open that up.

Reginald Martin00:55:50

Yeah. So the, the place now to the simplest places.Just go to my sub stack and that's a newsletter that I do that I write and teach on a lot of these concepts. So I, I have articles just about every, every other day, just things that I'm teaching these ideas.But reginaldmartin.substack.com and then through that. That's kind of like a portal for everything that I do and. But I also have a YouTube channel.I don't do a lot of new content on YouTube, but I have a repository of over a thousand videos that, that I've done over the years on YouTube that people still go to. And so. So those are a couple of places. But substack reginaldmartin.substack.com that's like the portal.And then you can go from there and I can send you in a lot of different directions just depending on what your interest might be. But you have an interest in learning about Platonic theophysy and all that. I'm writing articles and stuff about that.So I'm always teaching and it's just something I love to do.

Michael Herst00:57:01

And you have classes on there as well, correct?

Reginald Martin00:57:04

I have courses that. Yeah. That you can connect to through. Through my substack. So just through the newsletter you get an email.So I have different resources that you can go to our classes. I've actually just recently I created an AI that has. That I've trained on everything that I know and teach over the years.All my research and other people's research from a metaphysical perspective. And they can actually tap into that, learn, they can use it to learn, they can use it to create content, all stuff. So. And that's at Solpreneur AI.

Michael Herst00:57:44

Okay, I'll make sure that's all in the show notes. Everybody has an easy way to just click and go. And that'll help hopefully connect people to you. This is one more thing before you go.Do you have any words of wisdom that you can share with everybody?

Reginald Martin00:57:59

I would say the. The one thing is, is to learn how to be your own standard for your life. And I like to say live life on your terms without guilt or shame.And in a lot of ways we were taught that that was selfish to do. But when you live life through your joy, then you can spread joy and that level of consciousness into the universe.Other people can connect with it as well. Live life on your terms. Live it. Live it through joy.

Michael Herst00:58:28

Brilliant, brilliant, profound words of wisdom. I think that we all should all heed those. Reginald, thank you very much for being on the program.Thank you very much for sharing your wisdom, your experience and your journey. I greatly appreciate it. I hope that we've touched in people's lives.

Reginald Martin00:58:46

Thank you for having me here, Michael. I really appreciate it.

Michael Herst00:58:49

Reginald Martin reminds us that freedom doesn't begin with beliefs, it begins with awareness that guilt isn't a guide as a ghost, and that our power isn't outside of us. It's buried beneath the scripts we were handed.Cometophysics isn't just a framework, it's a soul level resurrection, a return to the truth we've always known, but we're taught to forget. Because sometimes the most sacred awareness awakening begins with just one more thing before you go so that's a wrap for today's episode.I hope you found it inspirational, motivational, and a new perspective to take with you.
