KIM ON THE CREATION OF CASH FLOW
Philippe Matthews
Tell me how the conversation goes when Robert comes to you with this idea about Rich Dad and the Cash Flow game.
Kim Kiyosaki
“He had been working on Rich Dad for years. Neither of us had any inkling or ever thought this would be the success that it is - not a clue! He wrote this book, we printed a thousand copies and thought we would give it away for Christmas presents for years and it will be done. He wrote it, it’s done, it’s on paper and it’s recorded. He spent a couple of years working on this book and as he was working on that he said, ‘I have this idea about a game.’ And the game is really everything we’ve done in our life in terms of how we invested and how we got out of the rat race. Even all those deals on the fast track, they are all somehow related to us. We have done most of them or all of them, failed on many of them and we have lots of memories but the story on that is when we sold our business in 1994 to an education company and we were trying to figure out what we wanted to do next, I thought maybe I would go do my own business and he start his own business and maybe we would do it separately this time. We went to New York City right before Christmas in 1995 and you know on the Today Show when they go outside? If you look there is sign that reads Dean & Deluca; it’s a coffee shop? Well, we were sitting there one morning and the Today Show was taping and we started talking about this cash flow game and it was there that we decided we were going to do this together. We were going to be business partners and see where this takes us. We built the game in 1996, launched it actually in Singapore in October of 1996 and launched it in the US in November 1996.”
Philippe Matthews
How did you meet Sharon Lechter?
Kim Kiyosaki
“We met Sharon when we were beta-testing the cash flow game. Robert was looking for a patent attorney and he called me one day and had interviewed three. He called me from his car and said, ‘Okay, I’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is I found the perfect patent attorney. The bad news is he is the most f#$% expensive attorney I’ve ever met!’ That was Michael Lechter (Sharon’s husband). One day I was driving to meet with Michael and he was charging $500 an hour! I’m driving down there and thinking, ‘I don’t have anything specific to talk with him about, maybe I should call and cancel the meeting?’ I almost picked up the phone and cancelled it and said to myself, ‘No, no, no; I made the appointment - go through with it.’ I don’t know why I even asked Michael this question but I said, ‘Michael, we’re looking for someone to help Robert complete his book. It needs editing and needs some work. Do you know anyone who writes?’ He said, ‘yeah, my wife Sharon.’ We had met Sharon at a beta test a couple of months earlier and that’s how Robert and Sharon became writing partners. Sharon also helped us out when we were doing the game and would meet with us, give us ideas on the corporate side and helped us set up the business. She gave us a lot of free advice with no agenda.”
Philippe Matthews
Tell me about Robert’s new rich dad and your partnership with Sharon.
Kim Kiyosaki
“Robert has a new rich dad, his name was Frank and he had taken sixty six companies public. We’re having lunch with Frank one day and he has been one of my best teachers. He’s 84 years old and is just as curious as a five year-old, he’s just amazing. Frank turns to us and says, ‘Okay, you’ve got this cash flow business now.’ He turns to Robert and asks, ‘You want to run this thing?’ Robert goes, ‘Heavens no, I don’t want to run this thing.’ He turns to me and asks, ‘Do you want to run it?’ I already know I am not good with day-to-day stuff, I don’t do it well. He says, ‘Well you better hire a president.’ I said, ‘don’t you have to bring somebody in and train them; get them comfortable with the business and get them to learn it?’ He says, ‘No, put an ad in the Wall Street Journal, there’s plenty of people out there, hire somebody.’ One day we were talking with Sharon, sitting down at her dinning room table and said, Sharon would you like to be our partner? That’s how we became partners. We are all equal partners in the business and to this day we still abide by our same policies; decisions are not made independently, we all make them together. Somebody will come and say, ‘Well, Robert agreed to this.’ I’ll look at Sharon and Sharon will look at me and say, ‘No, he did not because we haven’t talked with him about that yet and he would not do such a thing.”
Philippe Matthews
Did you ever feel this was something divinely guided and produced?
Kim Kiyosaki
“I do! This may sound strange but I really felt when we made that decision at the Dean & Deluca Coffee Shop, I got very calm. It felt like the Great Spirit — some people use the word God — I use Great Spirit was saying, ‘Just do it and it will work.’ The book just surprised the heck out of us, we just had no idea.”
Philippe Matthews
How did that level of success affect you?
Kim Kiyosaki
“I would like to think it hasn’t changed us much but there are a couple of things that certainly have changed and I have to say my relationship with Robert and our marriage has become much stronger because we battled through everything from 1985 to now. We can now sit back and take a breather. One big thing that has changed is because we are so much in the public when we do these events; we really have become more private. We really value our time together and our time alone. A lot of our friends are the same friends.”
KIM ON THE ADJUSTMENT TO SUCCESS & WEALTH
Philippe Matthews
With friends, you can change or trade them in, but family is another issue. How has your family adjusted to your wealth and success?
Kim Kiyosaki
“We’ve had some interesting changes just in the last month. My family and I have always been very close. I have two older sisters so there is five of us and when Robert and I were going through our very tough time, they were very concerned and there was definitely tension but they were always very supportive. Robert’s family on the other side, he and his brother were at odds for many, many years. There was a bit of anxiety because Robert had written a story about their dad and some people felt he made fun of his dad which he really was not doing. So, there was some animosity there. Just recently though and this was the neatest thing, Robert’s brother, John and his son Jason who is sixteen years old, last year we were talking with them and said, ‘We’re doing this seminar,’ and Jason got interested because we did this one day event in Honolulu and Jason wanted to come to the event. We brought them both over and Jason got really turned on by real estate and now his older brother is interested and we get this letter from Jason saying, ‘I just want to let you know that at 16 years old, these courses have changed my life. I have a job selling window tinting. I am researching all of the real estate in Honolulu and my life has changed forever!’ Robert’s brother, John who was always in his own world and really not interested is now turning his life around and actually got a position with a property management company to learn property management and learn real estate. That has been pretty spectacular!”
Philippe Matthews
I hear it in your voice that there is a massive passion to teach. Where did that come from? You came from being an “E” on the Cash flow Quadrant but you don’t have an “E” (Employee) mentality.
Kim Kiyosaki
“That’s a really good question because my father was an employee all of his life, he was in sales for a paper company and everybody around me were all employees. I didn’t meet any entrepreneurs or business owners growing up but I think when I got fired twice from my first job; to be honest, I hate being told what to do. That was the problem! They wanted me at the job at a certain time and it was very structured and I am not structured. Thank God I didn’t move to New York City that would have been a huge mistake. The teaching part for me comes from people coming up to me at the events and asking questions. They are so interested in learning and they are so excited that they (Robert & crew) have to sometimes pull me back and tell me the show is about to start and I just want to talk to people. If I can share something that I have learned and make it a little easier for somebody else, great! What happens is it comes full circle because I’m always looking for new teachers and looking for new information and I find that people really do want to share what they know. Not everybody but the majority of them and especially successful people, I find that they do want to give back and they do want to share their knowledge.”
KIM ON RICH MARRIAGE POOR MARRIAGE
Philippe Matthews
I see a book coming from the two of you called Rich Marriage Poor Marriage!
Kim Kiyosaki
“There you go!”
Philippe Matthews
Speaking on that, how important is it to do what you do and be married to the right person?
Kim Kiyosaki
“Good question. I knew from the very beginning that I wanted my life partner to be my business partner. I don’t recommend it for everybody. I know some couples that would probably kill each other but when Robert and I have an argument, it’s always about business - it’s not personal, it’s about business; that’s where our biggest blowups happen. When it works, I think it’s brilliant. I am not the same person I was back in 1986 when we got married. You grow, you learn and a lot of people grow in different directions.”
Philippe Matthews
What happens when two evenly yoked people grow in two different directions and try and maintain a marriage and/or a business?
Kim Kiyosaki
“I would think that would be hell to be honest and I hear that a lot from women and men - ‘I really want to move forward but my partner is not interested and how do I get them interested?’ That’s the million dollar question. It’s like anything when you have a team and especially with marriage, you always have something to talk about. I see these couples at restaurants, older couples, and they are just sitting there with nothing to talk about. Robert and I always have something to talk about, it’s always exciting and we’re always sharing. We don’t have kids by choice. We love our lifestyle, we love to travel and Robert asked me earlier about my reaction toward having kids and I was in my late twenties and said, ‘Not right now, maybe later but it’s not a high priority for me.’ He thought I was lying and trying to trick him. We love our lifestyle but I see couples and all they have in common is their kids and then when the kids move on they are left with ‘Who are you?’ I think the main thing with couples even if you don’t work together is you have to grow together. We have a policy that anytime one of us wants to attend a seminar, we both attend. A lot of times, we will read the same books and then discuss it. When you attend a seminar, it’s really hard to explain it and verbalize some of the things that happened because sometimes a light bulb will go off or a mind-shift change and its hard to explain that in words. But it is really easy when your partner is sitting there next to you, experiencing the same thing you are.”
Watch and listen to what Robert Kiyosaki has to say about the importance of being in the right relationship to be rich!

Part 1 of 3 - The Currency Couple: An Exclusive Interview with Kim Kiyosaki By Philippe Matthews

Kim Kiyosaki
Kim Kiyosaki entered the business world in a position with a top Honolulu advertising agency and by age 25 she was operating a Honolulu magazine that served the city’s business community. It didn’t take long for Kim’s entrepreneurial spirit to surface and two years later she ventured into her first business: a clothing company with national distribution.
Not long after launching that company, Kim joined Robert Kiyosaki as a partner in a company that taught entrepreneurial business throughout the world. That business grew to support 11 offices in seven countries, presenting business seminars to tens of thousands of attendees.
In 1989 Kim began her real estate investing career with the purchase of a small 2-bedroom, 1 bath rental house in Portland, Oregon. Today Kim’s real estate investment company buys, sells and manages millions of dollars worth of property. Kim strongly advocates and encourages women to get into the world of investing. According to Kim, “Investing can ultimately lead women to freedom – freedom of never having to be dependent on anyone for their financial well-being.”
Kim and Robert, who married in 1984, sold their education seminar business in 1994 and ‘retired’. In 1997, Kim and Robert – with partner and Rich Dad Poor Dad co-author Sharon Lechter – founded the company that would take the Rich Dad® message and mission of financial literacy – through books, games, and other educational tools – to international recognition and acclaim.
Rich Dad’s Organization is the collaborative effort of Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter, who, in 1996, embarked on a journey that would afford them the opportunity to impact the financial literacy of people everywhere and carry the Rich Dad mission to every corner of the world.
I had the opportunity to sit down and Q&A with Kim about the power of building the Rich Dad brand, the strength of relationship and the power behind their plight to the top of the wealth food chain.
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
How did you meet Robert and when did you know that this was the guy?
Kim Kiyosaki
“That goes back to 1984. I was working in Honolulu, I had been living there for about seven years and one day at TGIF, a girlfriend and I, Karen was in there having a drink after work and she introduced me to Robert. At the time I was moving to New York City. I was in advertising and thought it was time for me to climb the corporate ladder and that’s what I wanted to do, and I was going to get the corner office on Madison Avenue; I had the whole plan. So when I met Robert that was already in the works and I had actually given notice at my other job. Robert kept calling and sending me flowers and asking me out and I kept telling him, ‘no, no, no; I’m moving to New York City. This went on about six months. He would leave on business trips and send me postcards. Finally one day he called me at work and said he would like to get together and have drink after work and I said, ‘okay, how about tonight?’ He said ‘okay.’ Unbeknownst to me he had been talking to my girlfriend, Karen who was an old girlfriend of his from about seven years earlier and I didn’t know that at the time.”
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
What was Karen telling Robert about you?
Kim Kiyosaki
“He was asking Karen what is Kim like? She told him, ‘well, she likes champagne and walks on the beach.’ Robert is such a good salesman; after work, I drove up to his apartment building which is an apartment/hotel that was a really nice, beautiful hotel right on the beach outside Wai Ki Ki. I pulled up in my orange Toyota Celica and the valet is there and he opens my door and says, ‘oh, you must be Kim, Robert’s been waiting for you. Let me show you to his apartment.’ I swear to God, I walk up these stairs, Robert opens the door and inside I said to myself, ‘I’m home.’ It was instant even though it was six months leading up to it but I really didn’t give it a chance but when he opened the door I just knew I was home. Afterwards, we went down to the restaurant and had our champagne by the beach, went for a walk and we have been together ever since.”
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
Did the two of you talk most of the time?
Kim Kiyosaki
“That evening we sat up until about three o’clock in the morning talking and he said, ‘what do you want to do with your life?’ and I said, ‘I want to own my own business,’ and he said, ‘I can help you with that.’ About two months later we started this very small business and we have been business partners ever since as well.”
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
What business did the two of you start?
Kim Kiyosaki
“At the time, Robert was studying under his mentor Buckmeister Fuller and we really wanted to build our next business. We had this small business where we designed this logo and embroidered it on shirts and the purpose was to fund all of our travels, seminars and educations for one year throughout the US and we would sell these shirts and jackets wherever we went and it was all tied in to Bucky Fuller who was our mentor.”
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
Was this before or after Robert’s failed Velcro business?
Kim Kiyosaki
“We met February of 1984 and December 1984 is when we left for the mainland. Robert had taken a lot of trips to Asia where they did the manufacturing and he saw the kids in these sweat shops where they were doing silk screening and breathing in these fumes and horrible conditions and he came back and said, ‘I can’t do this anymore. It’s against my conscience’ and he sold the company over to his partners and that’s when we took off.”
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
Robert always tells the story about when he wanted to by a Porsche, you were the one who told him that he needed to buy an asset to pay for it, is that a true story? (See Part 2 Private Screening with Robert Kiyosaki http://bit.ly/4UXBeV)
Kim Kiyosaki
“That is a true story. I love to encourage women in investing just because there is not a lot of good education out there for women and women haven’t been geared towards investing. I didn’t know anything about investing until 1989 and Robert came to me and said, ‘it’s time that we start investing.’ Robert is not the one to tell you how to do it; he doesn’t give you the step-by-step but he said we needed to do it. He had done some real estate investing in Hawaii so I ventured out and my very first rental property was this little one bedroom, one bath house in Portland, Oregon and I was scared to death! I did due diligence up and down, one side to the other and tried to find every reason not to do this deal and finally came to the point where I either put the money down or walk away from it; it’s now or never. I put the money down and it put $25 in my pocket every month – that was it and I was thrilled!”
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
It appears that Robert’s Rich Dad mindset was at the helm of your decision to take action and do something bold. (See Part 4 Private Screening with Robert Kiyosaki http://bit.ly/5OrCeu)
Kim Kiyosaki
“The whole philosophy behind Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert’s rich dad’s philosophy and it was just engrained in me even when we sold our company in 1994 and we had some money and asked what do we want to do? My biggest fear was that we would just burn through the money so we started looking at apartment buildings and businesses to buy. The choice was either a taco franchise of which we negotiated the rights to Arizona and was very labor intensive, very people intensive and we had to be hands-on operators and Robert and I are not good operators, we know that about ourselves so, instead, we bought two apartment buildings. That was a lot easier; it gave us the cash flow. I was so engrained about your assets buy your liabilities that when he came to me with this Porsche idea, it was so funny! He went down to Scottsdale Porsche, saw it; it was the car he had been looking for and sniffs the tires, takes it on a test drive which is stuff that guys do. For me, it’s the leather inside not the tires. He came back and said, ‘I really want to get this car.’ I said, ‘great, let’s go find the asset to pay for it.’ We ended up in a limited partnership in Austin, Texas with some people we know well and bought a mini-storage and the mini-storage every month would throw off the cash flow that would pay for the Porsche. The Porsche is paid for free and clear and we still have the mini-storage.”
Philippe “SHOCK” Matthews
So you were never one of these women who would tell their husbands to go out and get five jobs?
Kim Kiyosaki
“No! When I met Robert, I was looking for something new. I got fired twice from the same job. I was really good and they hired me back but I was a little overly enthusiastic. I wanted to learn so much and I would get my work done and go help somebody else and my boss and I couldn’t get along so when they fired me somebody else in the company wanted me so they hired me back and it still didn’t work. That’s when I knew I better do my own thing. So, I was looking for something new when I met Robert and he was talking about building businesses and life’s purpose, spirituality which I really hadn’t had and was looking for something.”
In my exclusive TV interview with Robert Kiyosaki, he shared the power of being in the right relationship to be rich is crucial. Watch for yourself and learn the power behind this powerful Rich Dad principle: See Part 3 Private Screening with Robert Kiyosaki http://bit.ly/4txMYg)

What’s Killing Your Intentions Before They Are Born?
November 4, 2009 by Philippe Matthews
Filed under Blog
STOP LIVING AN UNFULFILLED LIFE
What’s Killing Your Intentions Before They Are Born?
What’s stopping your brain from accessing the wisdom of your spiritual journey, the modalities taught by your spiritual masters and the lessons learned on of your journey?
There are two neurological and psychological systems that through evolution, have a built-in security system that guards you against the unpredictability of success, next-level thinking and next-level wealth manifestation.
This mechanism is analogous to an anti-virus program running in the back of your mind that fights to maintain the integrity of your current reality (programming). When you decide to change your current reality using various spiritual, self-help systems and/or psychological disciplines, this psychological and neurological program automatically activates to create mental, physical and environmental (internal/external) distractions to block access or delay the wisdom and knowledge needed to manifest the new reality.
Even if through focused determination and discipline, you win over the neurological system and it fails to maintain your current reality, then the psychological system activates to keep you in the pathology of procrastination, dilution and distraction. When these two systems work together (biological/psychological), there is no single theological system that can penetrate it – nature will always find a way.
“At four and a half months old a human fetus has a reptile tale; a remnant of our evolution. Maybe that’s what I couldn’t escape. You can fight a lot of enemies and survive but if you fight your biology, you always lose.”
– Nicholas Cage (Lord of War)
As we evolve as a species and our science and technology increases; our neurological and psychological systems are equally becoming more and more complex thus requiring a deeper understanding and process how to access the wisdom of our spiritual self-help journey along with the modalities taught by our spiritual masters and the lessons learned on our journey.
- FACT: Procrastination Is A Neurological Disorder And Not A Mental Disorder!
- FACT: Will Power Does Not Work!
- FACT: Positive Thinking, Hope and Faith Has A Neurological Shelf Life!
Right now, over 99.9% of the population has (two) automatic systems running their brain: 1) the neurological system known as the Neocortex and 2) the psychological system known as the Identity System (mind). Both are the number one reason you have not been able to manifest next-level reality, break free you’re your existing reality and end the cycle of a repeated reality.
Would it be beneficial to learn how to identify, isolate and sever old neural connections that are keeping you stuck in a looping neural net?
I believe that not learning how to train your brain to process at a higher levels of spiritual evolution leads to addiction and premature death or worst yet, a life full of unfulfilled dreams — the walking dead! If we as the highest, most evolved species on earth do not learn how to outthink our thinking and become aware of our awareness and learn how to train our brains; there is no amount of tithing, praying or worshiping that will save us from our own psychological extinction!
Are you ready to prematurely die with unfulfilled dreams in life? I DON’T THINK SO!!!
What neural net are you trapped in and don’t know how to break out of but still find yourself consciously and unconsciously defending?
A CALL TO ACTION
If you are guilty of not doing the things necessary to breakthrough to the next level, have a difficult time focusing on a logical outcome, and find yourself easily distracted from living your best life; I would like to personally share with you the science behind what invisible force is killing your good before it even arrives!
When I share with you my findings, you will discover first hand the mechanism in your brain that is causing you to procrastinate, limit your good and many times sabotage your own good!
Reflective Questions to Ask Yourself Before You Take Action:
- What invisible mental force is holding me back?
- What keeps happening to me or showing up in my life that I can’t seem to shake?
- Is there something I want to get rid of or escape from my reality that no matter how hard I’ve tried or how much I have prayed, used affirmations or read positive books; it won’t go away?
- Do I sometimes feel absolutely helpless?
- Do I know where I want to be in life but have no idea how to get there?

A motivational speaker from Cincinnati, Ohio has been featured on FOX News on how to make every day Saturday: LEARN MORE
His name is Sam Crowley, and he has an incredible story…
Just a few years ago, Sam was a “corporate drone”
working for a Fortune 100 company.
He had all the perks… a six-figure salary, a corner office, the works.
But… he was MISERABLE!
Sam arrived home late every night, and he gave his best at work while his family was stuck with leftovers.
One night his 3 year old daughter asked him, “Daddy, is tomorrow Saturday?”
Those 4 little words shook Sam to the core, and he decided that something had to change.

What President and Mrs. Obama can teach us about relationships
August 5, 2009 by Philippe Matthews
Filed under Blog
By Dr. Darnise Martin
In light of the new CNN program Black in America 2 currently running on television, highlighting African American leaders and change-makers, I felt compelled to add my comments on the new model of black marriage and family before us everyday.
President Obama and Michelle Obama are what I call a Super Couple. They are individually and collectively very successful, intelligent, and articulate achievers. Together, they make a super dynamic couple. The fact that they are an African American couple is a great example to the world that yes, indeed, Black people can have and maintain loving relationships. Our media shows us far too many images of pathological relationship and community patterns among African Americans, and too few images of positive Black family life.
We have had examples over the years, The Huxtables, longtime real-life couple Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee, but, the Obamas represent an outstanding model for the whole world to see. Their obvious love and affection for each other and the importance they place on their family unit does more to combat negative stereotypical images than all the “expert” panels and institutional studies combined.
In my business as a relationship mentor, I hear far too often the pain and disappointment of women who believe there are no good men left. To them I say, be encouraged, don’t fall for the okey-doke that the media presents or even the gossip of your girlfriends. Affirm for yourself that you can have whatever you desire to have. Don’t let yourself be defeated before you even start.

The Power of The Soloist
May 22, 2009 by Philippe Matthews
Filed under Blog
The Soloist is an 2009 drama film starring Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr.. It was directed by Joe Wright based on a screenplay written by Susannah Grant.
The Soloist is based on the true story of Nathaniel Ayers (Jamie Foxx), a musical prodigy who developed schizophrenia during his second year at Juilliard School. Ayers becomes homeless in the streets of downtown Los Angeles, playing the violin and the cello.
Robert Downey Jr. portrays Steve Lopez, a Los Angeles Times columnist who discovers Ayers and writes about him in the newspaper.
When you see this movie, make sure you bring plenty of tissue to capture the tears of empathy and compassion as this movie tells a story about an uncommon friendship and bond that happens between two strangers from two different worlds.
One of the most poignant lines in the movie came from Downey’s character when he looked at Nathaniel and said, “I’m honored to be your friend.”
When was the last time you had a conversation with someone who is homeless? When was the last time you saw someone who was mentally disabled and blessed them with the simple act of attention and acknowledgment?
That is what this movie teaches all of us. How to love our disowned and misunderstood parts.
I recommend you rush to see this movie and purchase it for your personal home library when it is released on DVD. I also recommend that you make an effort today, this week to strike up a conversation with someone who has become homeless and allow them to share their story.
Don’t be scared or apprehensive; remember, we are all connected by one mind and one source. When you look into the eyes of someone who has seemingly lost their mind, you are looking into the mind of divinity.
Here’s a better question for you: how many missed paychecks are you from being homeless? Is there someone who is mentally ill in your family?
Please read this powerful blog entry simply entitled: Empowering the Homeless One Success At A Time.
I wish you heaven

The Spiritual Science of Angels & Demons
May 15, 2009 by Philippe Matthews
Filed under Blog
I just saw Ron Howard’s, Angels and Demons; fantastic!
Angels & Demons - Movie adaptation of Dan Brown’s bestseller book Tom Hanks second time in a role of symbologist Robert Langdon.
Angels and Demons is prequel to The Da Vinci Code Movie
This movies underlying theme was that science and religion or spirituality are actually one and the same.
For Hollywood purposes, they didn’t come right out and say that because that would have been way to controversial so they said “Science is eroding religion.” And the Catholic church and many denominations are falling by the wayside as we get closer to understanding the laws of the universe and what God (or whatever name you use) really is and what it means to us.
The movie also demonstrated how much history, truth and information has and still is being kept from the 1 billion catholics and the world at large as Robert Langdon, played by Tom Hanks gets access to the Vatican’s archives and was able to decode the plot to shine light on the city.
If you are a devout catholic, christian or otherwise, don’t go see this movie as it will completely alter the cloack of faith you may currently be under. However, if you have questions, that your religion has not been able to answer or if you have been criticized, ridiculed and repremanded by any religious faith, this is the movie you need to see.
Okay, so here is the science and premise of the movie.
In Angels & Demons Tom Hanks plays Harvard academic Robert Langdon, who discovers evidence of the resurgence of an ancient secret brotherhood called the Illuminati - the most powerful underground organization in history. An organization that embodied leading thinkers and scientists of the time.
According to Wikipedia, Illuminati (plural of Latin illuminatus, “enlightened”) is a name that refers to several groups, both historical and modern, and both real and fictitious. Historically, it refers specifically to the Bavarian Illuminati, an Enlightenment-era secret society founded on May 1, 1776. In modern times it is also used to refer to a purported conspiratorial organization which acts as a shadowy “power behind the throne,” allegedly controlling world affairs through present day governments and corporations, usually as a modern incarnation or continuation of the Bavarian Illuminati. In this context, Illuminati is often used in reference to a New World Order (NWO). Many conspiracy theorists believe the Illuminati are the masterminds behind events that will lead to the establishment of such a New World Order. Confusing the issue further is the fact that there are also several modern fraternal groups which include the word “Illuminati” in their names.
When Langdon finds evidence that the Illuminati have stolen antimatter from a secret laboratory at CERN, which they plan to use as a devastating weapon to destroy the Vatican, he and CERN scientist Vittoria Vetra begin a race against time to recover the antimatter and prevent catastrophe.
But what is antimatter? Is is real? Is it dangerous? What is CERN?
CERN is a group of scientist who are searching for what’s known as the Higgs Boson or The God Particle. Many organized religons are quivering in their boots if this smallest of sub atomic particles is every isolated and studied. However, some religions and spiritual organizations such as SHOCKphilosophy welcome the discovery as it may finally answer the question of what God/Universe is and how intention and manifestation actually work.
In particle physics, antimatter is the extension of the concept of the antiparticle to matter, where antimatter is composed of antiparticles in the same way that normal matter is composed of particles. For example, an antielectron (a positron, an electron with a positive charge) and an antiproton (a proton with a negative charge) could form an antihydrogen atom in the same way that an electron and a proton form a normal matter hydrogen atom. Furthermore, mixing matter and antimatter would lead to the annihilation of both in the same way that mixing antiparticles and particles does, thus giving rise to high-energy photons (gamma rays) or other particle-antiparticle pairs.
Angels and Demons is about 2 hours and 20 minutes; every second is a valuable look into the question of our very existence.
