Jim’s Testimony

This is the actual photographer’s, testimony of our most recent “sighting”, Hilo side (Kawika’s “Garden of the gods“). Jim Becker is a California business man.  There are many more Big Island ”encounters” to gather and share, from floating orbs to bright and shadowy humanoid forms, to what locals refer to as “classic Pele encounters”. Some of my favorites include the photos of a German Archeologist, a wealthy Philippine business man, and the prominent architect of the renown Shangri La hotel chain. Hawaii seems to be the “home office” for such “otherworldly” goings on. It has to do with the place where the “veil is thinnest”, where the concrete-constructs of our 3rd dimensional world and even the earth itself “liquifies”. Important to point out in this “encounter” is that Dave (Kawika) had nodded to his long time friend just prior, that “unspoken moment alone” to “connect”. A kind of acknowledgement by both men. This notion is the entire inspiration behind my red book, “Secrets & Mysteries of Hawaii”. As I read Jim’s testimony, I find myself, as always, going back to the original moment I decided to write “Little Red”, recalling the 40 odd other, first time authors who have now written their stories since. For me it was traveling on the old Mamalahoa Highway Kona side, when I noticed a business man who had pulled over in his rental car to witness the setting sun. As he stood alone loosening his tie, I knew he had just taken his first step on “the road less traveled”.

Welcome “home”, Jim. In this time of greatest change, know that the veil is finally rising. Please, all of you out there, share. There are so many souls, in this time of greatest change, yearning to hear.

Photographer testimony:

Hello Dave & Pila,

I really enjoyed your response to the photo and the way you handled this life changing experience for me. I have no problem with you using the photo on your web site or Blog to share the experience with the people you connected with. I just want to make sure the photo is not used for profit making or commercial use. It demonstrates to me that supernatural beings are around us, we just need to be in the right state of body and mind, and then be aware enough to pick them up, In my case, the digital camera did it for me.

First of all, I have no experience in this area, nor do I even still understand what I photographed. I guess, it’s one of those cases of being in the right place at the right time. I’m just lucky, fortunate, blessed, special and my reward is in experiencing this phenomenon.

I had been on the Islands for about a week and spent a lot of time by myself while finishing the reading of a book called The Celestine Prophecy. It’s about insights into ones life and how these experiences were written in a manuscript in Peru. I had been in Peru just 6 months prior and was in Machu Pachu and found the experience very spiritual. The book talks about learning to experience energy fields in unique and beautiful locations. I was almost at the end of the book when arrived at Dave Bennett’s on the afternoon of Jan 3, 2008.

I arrived with good friends and travel partners to the Big Island Robert and Shirley Mitchell and David promptly took us on a quick tour of his magnificent columns of palms and hundreds of exotic fruit trees. As we toured, David’s local guests started arriving with food for the welcoming party. We spent time exchanging the usual names and where we live and all of that and everyone headed for the house as the sun was setting. It was slightly overcast with no wind or rain, but the sun clearly down.

I broke off from the group and had previously forgotten my camera and also wanted to go up in the front of the property and have a smoke and look around and maybe take a photo. I was captivated by the entrance (near the main road) and the large palm with seeds. As I finished my smoke, I looked at the row of Magosteen trees and their trunks were a brilliant golden color with the tree limbs and leaves also in deep rich vivid colors. I felt very conformable there as it was motionless and quiet

I simply pulled my camera out (Sony Digital easy shoot) and shot the photo.

I went back to David’s house and joined the party. I noticed the photo of David on his piano that I had seen before taken a few years ago in Petaluma, Ca. of this similar spirit in front of him while at a local restaurant.

A few days later, I finally finished my book and had forgotten to look at my photo’s on my digital camera in detail. That is when I noticed the white lines in the photo, but this was on the small 2 inch by 2 inch screen. It was difficult to see much detail. My last day in Hawaii, I spent with David on his farm sorting Magosettn fruit and we discussed my photo’s and similarities to the photo of him that sits on his piano.

Since this has happened, it has changed my life in that I’m now very open to the reality of living spirits and amazing energy fields. I look forward to more input and discussion of my photo and hope that it allows all of us to experience this type of phenomenon in the future.

Best regards,

Jim B.
