Register

ARE YOU READY TO REMEMBER WHO YOU REALLY ARE?

On March 21st, 2026 at the Spring Equinox, a transmission begins. Join us as the Victory Protocols—ancient wisdom from beyond this world—are unveiled to seekers ready to receive them.

THE DISCOVERY

 

You’ve Found the Cave

Lost in a Himalayan blizzard, Kasya stumbles upon a cave—and inside, a journal that would change everything. A chronicle written by Avalokana Chen, an interdimensional traveler known on Earth as “Elbud.”

You are Kasya now.

This book has found you. And like all true discoveries, the timing is no accident.

According to the Victory Protocols themselves:

“Only some beings access the methodology to become a Psynaut, although almost all have the capacity.”

If you’re reading these words, you may be among those ready to access what has always been within you.

THE TRANSMISSION

 

What Happens on First Contact?

On March 21st—the moment of perfect balance between light and dark—we gather virtually to initiate the next wave of Psynauts into the teachings that have guided awakening beings for millennia.

THE EXPERIENCE

Emotional Intelligence 2026

THE PROTOCOLS REVEALED
For the first time publicly, the Victory Protocols that form the backbone of Psynaut training will be demonstrated in action. Not just explained—activated.

VOICES FROM THE SOURCE
Hear directly from those who worked alongside Elbud (Qapel Doug Duncan) during his Earth incarnation. They’ll share what it was like witnessing a master teacher channel cosmic wisdom into story form.

THE COSMIC TRANSMISSION
Through dramatic readings, visual media, and guided group experience, you’ll be initiated into the Psynaut way of seeing—where ordinary reality becomes transparent to deeper truths.

YOUR NEXT STEPS
According to the journal, Volume 1 must be discovered. Volume 2 must be received from a mentor. Learn how to connect with the teaching lineage and continue your journey.

THE GUESTS

Meet Your Earth-Based Contacts

CATHERINE PAWASARAT SENSEI

Lineage Holder & Co-Founder, Clear Sky Retreat Center

Not all Psynauts have departed this dimension. Some remain to guide the awakening.

Catherine Sensei walked alongside Qapel for 2+ decades, co-founding Clear Sky Retreat in the BC Rockies and helping thousands of students remember their cosmic nature. She carries the transmission forward—and on March 21st, she’ll help you understand why this teaching chose fiction as its vessel.

THE EDITORS

Those Who Helped Shape the Transmission

Hear from those who worked directly with Elbud during his writing process. They’ll share what it was like editing the book and how the Victory Protocols worked their way into the editors’ own consciousness.

THE PROTOCOLS

 

A Glimpse into the 66 Transmissions

The Victory Protocols aren’t just teachings—they’re activations. Here are three that will be explored during First Contact:

Victory Protocol 1: The greatest value is compassion

The foundation that transforms everything—from playground conflicts to cosmic awakening.

Victory Protocol 23: We never feel ready for the challenge that comes next, but if it’s arising, we probably are

Why you’re here, reading this, right now.

Victory Protocol 66: The question is not “to be or not to be”; the question is “what to be?”

The choice every Psynaut must make.

On March 21st, you’ll experience how these protocols work not as abstract philosophy but as living technology for consciousness transformation.

THE INVITATION

 

Why the Spring Equinox?

The Spring Equinox marks perfect balance—day and night equal, light and dark in harmony. It’s the moment when new growth becomes inevitable, when what has been dormant underground breaks through into manifestation.

PSYNAUTS emerges at this exact moment of balance.

Like Kasya finding that journal in the cave, you’re being given an opportunity:

→ To see beyond the ordinary story you’ve been told about consciousness
→ To remember the cosmic nature you’ve forgotten
→ To join a lineage of awakening beings spanning worlds and lifetimes
→ To discover what it means to be a space-traveling being—a Psynaut

 

The Bigger Picture:

This isn’t just a book launch. It’s the activation of a teaching that Elbud spent 30 years preparing to deliver—wisdom refined through thousands of meditation hours, countless retreats, and direct transmission from enlightened masters.

Qapel chose story because, as he says in the book, “Sometimes the ego’s defenses are so strong, wisdom needs to sneak in through the back door.”

On March 21st, that door opens.

FAQs

Spacer Holder for the 1st Item

I can't attend live—can I still register?

Yes! Everyone who registers receives the recording, which will be available for 7 days. The transmission works across time and space—that’s kind of the point. However, the live experience includes real-time group consciousness activation that recordings can’t fully capture.

Is this really free?

Completely free. Elbud’s teaching was always about accessibility. No one is turned away from the dharma for lack of funds. (Though if you’re moved to support the teaching, the book will be available for purchase.)

Do I need to know anything about Buddhism or science fiction?

Nope. You need only curiosity and openness. The Victory Protocols meet you where you are.

What if I'm skeptical about aliens and interdimensional beings?

Perfect. Skepticism is healthy. As Victory Protocol 28 states: “If you don’t rebel, you probably won’t meet the Victory Protocols.” Come with your questions. The teaching works whether you believe in it or not.

Will this be recorded and shared publicly?

The recording will be available to registrants only for 7 days. We’re creating sacred container for this transmission.

How do I get Volume 2?

According to the protocols, Volume 2 must be received from a mentor. We’ll explain the process during the event and help you connect with the teaching lineage.

Is this a cult?

No. This is a book launch for a work of fiction that happens to contain profound spiritual teachings. You’re not joining anything except a community of fellow seekers.

THE MOMENT OF CHOICE

 

The Cave Awaits

Like Kasya in that Himalayan cave, you’ve reached a decision point.

You can close this page, return to ordinary reality, and forget you were here.

Or you can register, show up on March 21st, and discover what it means to become a Psynaut—a consciousness traveler, a space-time navigator, an awakened being.

The journal is in your hands now.
