I question some of this. Bacteria and much simpler organisms than
ourselves do not share "95% of the same DNA". Their DNA is a good deal
simpler although obviously related. There is no mechanism by which the
DNA changes that produce one species would travel backward to an earlier
species and become parts of its DNA that I am aware of. Natural
Selection is only one of the methods by which evoluion, changes in the
genetic structure of a population over time, takes place. Which two
coming together? Creationism has zero evidence in its favor. This is
not to say that some/all of life couldn't have been "designed" but that
Creationism has not managed to do much more than throw rocks at
evolution (some on target and a lot off). There is no evidence at my
disposal currently that all DNA on this planet is a collective
consciousnes. That it sometimes feels this way to my intuition is not
enough for me to believe this at this time or to believe that a tree is
every bit as conscious and self-aware as we are.
I do not know how separate primitive cultures end up with very similar
creation stories although common human experience and needs might cover
part of it. But it doesn't follow that this unexplained correlation is
because there is a Cosmic Kundalini snake embedded in everyone's
consciousness. For one thing, a lot more than just snake symbolism is
shared by many cultures.

DNA is only part of what makes you you. Some DNA in ALL human beings
(not just males), known as transposons, is silent. It seems to not
produce anything in human beings that we know of. If we arose by
evolution it is to be expected that quite a bit of DNA would be
left-over junk that has been de-activated over time but that does no
harm anything enough being there to have been eliminated by natural
selection and is thus copied and passed along like all of the rest.
There is no evidence I know of that people with K experience have any of
that other DNA activated although there has been speculation about it.
There is no evidence that some alien race hid themselves in our genetic
structure although it is certainly a clever way to lay low for quite
some time.

What piezo-electric exchange is this?

The winged cadaceus is the "rod of Mercury". However I have felt like I
had vestigal wings all my life. :-)

That it is a long sequence does not say it is terribly complex in and

But it is not an arbitrary mag tape at all. It is a set of instructions
for producing a set of protein sequences that fold up to produce the
basic components of our cells. We have now sequenced this information,
we now have walked the sequence. We don't know why the produced
proteins fold into the shapes they do (this info is not in the DNA) but
we do know the sequence. And we do have good enough information theory
that we would have noticed encoded general messages (if anyone thought
to do those sorts of tests). So I have my doubts about the above
contention. It shouldn't be that hard to find out though.
That said I did here about a very strange project to store the
collective knowledge of humankind in a way that would survive even a
major nuclear war and would last thousands of years. Among others, I
think Stewart Brant of the Whole Earth Catalog fame was involved in
designing such a system. One serious proposal was to use the transposon
space of some very simple creature that would be likely to survive (I
think cockroaches were proposed) to store the information encoded in its
DNA where it would be faithfully reproduced generation after
generation. Very strange. It made me think twice about all of those
pictures of the Egyptian scarab!
I have intuitively experienced walking through generation after
generation of women back to pre-history. I have looked out of their
eyes and known their cares and the sometimes horrible decisions that it
fell to them to make for the good of their people and of their
children's children's children. I have experienced the Grand-Mother. I
understand why the Mother gave way to the Sky God for a time at an
intuitive level.

Perhaps. But it does not quite ring true to me at this time.
