I Can See This Is not What I Wanted to Do. Let's Go to The Video."<p> Dog Poet Transmitting.......</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I have decided to have an occasional
vehicle to speak my mind about cultural doings or doings in the
culture. Basically, I'm going to offer my opinion on films, series,
events, and whatever else either inspires or offends me. I can tell
you right off the bat, very... very little inspires me, and I am
working on not being offended by what I tell myself is not real in
the first place. Let's get right into it, shall we?</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Earlier this week I saw something
called “1883”. I'm guessing they gave him all the money to do it
because “Yellowstone” had been such a success; except for this
last season when Yellowstone sucked. I don't know if lightning hit a
couple of times here and there, but it did not hit 1883. I wish it
had hit it, right from the first episode. It is one of the worst film-making efforts I have ever seen.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">We will usually include spoilers,
especially if the film or whatever was a piece of shit. If you don't
want to know how something turned out, don't read about it.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">His chief actor is a pasty-faced bimbo
who you might have expected to see in Beverly Hills 90210 or whatever
the numbers are or Baywatch, of which I have never seen a single
episode of either, but I know what they are. She is supposed to be 16
years old. She is SO WRONG for the part.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She can't act, at all. In fact... it is
the single worst female acting I have seen in a film since Sophie
Coppola was in Godfather 3, and never acted again. She went on, instead, to make unwatchable movies, but at least she wasn't the face
the rotten vegetables were thrown at. I thought a similar nepotism
must be at work here but I don't care enough to find out.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">They waste Sam Eliot in this mess. He
was the reason I watched it. This horrid creature who played the
young lady; first she jumps into bed with some cowboy while a virgin
and they aren't far enough from the camp so people hear them. Wait!!!
Before I go on, I should say it is about a wagon train going
somewhere west. It doesn't matter. It could have been on a submarine.
It would have still stunk. The first boyfriend dies. So she moves on
to having an affair with an Indian brave. Yeah! That happened all the
time back then. People were REALLY liberal back then, weren't they?</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Some Indian lady makes her an Indian
brave's outfit that looks like something you would wear if you were a
waitress at a Native American Hooters. Perhaps they have these at
their casinos? She looked like a cos-play escort that you send to a
Halloween orgy. The whole thing... ALL THE WAY THROUGH is ridiculous.
I've seen them take liberties with the truth many times before, but...
this time they went all the way round the bend. It is satire but not
funny.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She can out-ride anyone, including the
Native American (grin). At one point she gets shot in the stomach
with what we are later told is a septic arrow. It goes right through
to the other side. Next thing we know she's riding a horse again.
Then it seems everyone knows she is going to die from the arrow later on, the way you usually die from arrows or gunshots; down the road a piece. She
doesn't look like she's going to die from anything except exposure to
public scorn. Regardless, her dad rides off with her to some place
that another Native American told him meant Paradise and they sit
under a tree and mercifully she dies a celluloid death. Why couldn't
it have happened in the first episode?</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">To make the whole project even worse
than it already was, this content creator who made the thing, a man
called Taylor Sheridan (who looks like a GQ model and probably was in
Baywatch or the Beverly Hills series) includes country singers, Tim
McGraw and Faith Hill into the mix as main characters. I do not have
time or space to describe for you the many ways they stank up the
joint. About halfway through, McGraw looked like he was going to cry
every time you saw him. Maybe it was that... by now, he could see how
bad the series was going to be, or maybe he was working himself up to
be really sad at the end over his daughter's death. If that was the
case he started way too early as his Barbie Doll offspring hadn't
even been shot in the stomach yet. I could go on and on and on about
how bad this was.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">It is almost worth watching it just to
see how bad it is. I knew from the first episode and could not
believe it had even been made. There were dozens of glaring errors,
misrepresentations, and bad dialogues in every episode. Some of the
father-daughter, mother-daughter conversations were almost bad enough
to make you want to hurt some innocent creature the way watching this
hurt you. It's enough to make you want to kick your dog. It's that
bad. At the end, Sam Eliot... who, all through the film looked like
he should be sitting on the porch in his rocker at a retirement
community, instead of on a horse, and who is crying about his dead
wife, through the whole of this pointless excursion. He gets to the
ocean. They skip the major portion of the journey there. He is
sitting on the beach, looking out to sea. The camera moves and he
shoots himself. Nice... really nice. He should have shot the guy who
made the film.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">It is hard for me to watch many films
because EVERY SINGLE ONE now has absurd, calculated race-mixing but little matching and
with zero regards for the history of that place and time, whatever
place and time they are revising. They have women doing things that
even men can't do, and each film must include some fruit-music for
the trans-humanists who insist on representation in the films. It is
an astounding thing to see... this free fall into the abyss.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">We cannot be very far away in time from
utter chaos in a massive die-off or... some cosmic segue into a finer
state of being. I suspect both will happen simultaneously, and at
both wide... and narrow remove. It will be individualized and
collectivized with surgical precision... and it WILL NOT be carried
out by those who presently seduce and oppress us. This they are
PROBABLY already finding out.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">AS I am writing this, I am realizing
that this is not something I want to do. I thought it was but I
suspect I am wrong. I realize, by trying to do this that there was a
reason I drifted away from such commentary in the first place. It
used to be I often wrote of such things at Petri Dish, and most of
the blogs were true to what the masthead said about it. Time has
passed and I find NOTHING but God and his kingdom to be worth my
talking about. I had always been talking about God and sundry (grin),
but everything else was there too. Everything else is not there as
much anymore.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I think what I will do is what I was
doing already, and that was to include mention of films and the like
at the end of the posts and before the links that follow, now and then. I will
simply rate them according to my internal abacus.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Well... you never know until you try,
and now... I think I know by having cooked with fire. Let's just
forget this ever happened, shall we?</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I have seen some entertaining efforts
recently. Space Force with Steve Carrel was a mixed bag. Sometimes it
was Dr. Strangelove-like and really funny. Sometimes it trended
inexplicable as if the writer and the director had lost the plot.
Overall... it really was funny here and there.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">If you are a fan of Lee Child's, Jack
Reacher books, and thought that Tom Cruise was a bad fit, I can
recommend the first season of “Reacher”. They REALLY got the
character right. This guy looks and acts like the Reacher in the
books. It is startling how close this is to the book. It might not be
your cup of tea, but if you liked the Reacher books, you will REALLY
like this. It may be the most authentic representation of book-to-film that I have ever seen. DO NOT READ ANY OF HIS LATEST BOOKS as
his son is writing them and they are terrible. I had to throw away
the one I accidentally bought. I even tore it up before I threw it in
the trash so that no one would find it among my effects when I
disappear for my native planet.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I rewatched “Fallen” with Denzel
Washington. This is a well-conceived and well-executed film. It was
well written, cast... acted, and directed. It's a supernatural thriller
that deals with demon possession, so... be advised.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Along with my regular readings of
Master Aivanhov, I've reread some old classics, and if you are of a
mind for escapist entertainment. I recommend “Lord of Light “ by
Roger Zelazny. It's an interesting take on the Hindu Gods.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Now... I see I can't do this. I'll find
a way of just listing... making two lists of like and dislike. The
reason for doing it is to excoriate certain sectors for slipshod
work and to inform the reading public, and perhaps save them valuable
time of what's left on their life meter.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Thanks for bearing with me.</p>

<br />
<br />
Today I wondered if I should talk about this... or talk about that and no matter what crosses my field of attention, I am drawn back to Mr. Apocalypse. It is ALWAYS about Mr. Apocalypse, because he is deeply involved in EVERYTHING happening, in the external theater of human drama and what is often enough... the theater of human comedy as well.<br />
<br />
I am presently watching this outrageous farce of an impeachment hearing and... heh heh... Mr. Apocalypse is the elephant in the room and the 900 pound gorilla. It is startlingly clear to me that an invisible power for Truth and Revelation is operating in this room, independent of the awareness of the players there. It is amusing in the extreme to watch pompous fatheads, filled with fast food gravitas, try to act like statesmen and come off looking like Tweedledee and Tweedledum. They are definitely in the realm of fairy tale characters. I have NEVER seen so much smoke and so many mirrors, reflecting nothing but the vapor trails of ghosts across a desert landscape of Fata Morgana.<br />
<br />
The increments of change are small and it is difficult to see the nature of the pattern of change over the short term BUT... if one steps back and widens the breadth of their perspective, it shows a surprising trend toward the ridiculous and embarrassing. The players are all of a short term attention span, so they DO NOT SEE the actual quality of their persona in demonstration. If they could see clearly into the true meaning of their own behavior they would be red faced with shame. They can't see because they have the blinders of self interest over their vision and everything they observe is viewed through the lens of self interest. The last thing any of them are concerned about is... self inquiry.<br />
<br />
Manipulating the destiny of self interest is one of Mr. Apocalypse's chief duties. He is like a grand weaver, or symphonic conductor, who threads the fabrics of different colors into a single, woven presentation, or the totality of the musical instruments, into a series of patterns, with the intent of evoking an emotional response. Let me be more clear and precise. Mr. Apocalypse directs all human activity to a particular end. It is to be presumed, unless you are bone dead stupid, that Mr. Apocalypse's duties, pretty much exclusively, ALL HAVE TO DO WITH THE APOCALYPSE. Apokalypsis is the classical Greek spelling of the word. It has to do with, <b>especially a particular ( spiritual ) manifestation of Christ (His will) previously unknown to the extent (because "veiled, covered"). Please read that several times until is becomes perfectly clear.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
An apocalypse is concerned with UNVEILING... DISCLOSURE... REVELATION... UNCOVERING. Let's put this in conversational terms... THE TRUTH WILL OUT! WHAT IS HIDDEN WILL BE REVEALED!!! This implies also that often, when this happens, it can have a cartoonish aspect to it. It can appear incongruous; especially when it doesn't reflect what was said about- whatever 'it' is- <b>what was previously hidden, not yet uncovered.</b><br />
<br />
Mr Apocalypse TOLD ME, with such power, that I was shaking... trembling with the force of it... he told me that he was going to show up in the middle of them and pull their pants down in front of the world. This... falls well within the parameters of UNCOVERING. REVEALING, UNVEILING and all terms similar. He said to me... <i>“you have some idea of who I am and from this you can surmise that I am certainly very... very clever. One might say ingenious, yes?”</i> I responded in the affirmative. He then continued to say, <i>“Well then, perhaps you can imagine how ingenious I can be if I turn my attention to that manner of expression, with these objects of my attention.”</i> I seem to remember saying something like... “Oh yeah!” This was because I knew that Mr. Apocalypse, a divine persona, operates under a divine imprimatur. He has the authority of Heaven behind him.<br />
<br />
So... I am much amused when I watch these hearings. I'm one of the few people on the planet that sees the hand of God in EVERYTHING. I'm not trying to paint myself as exceptional, or exclusive, or more in the know than anyone else; no way, not hardly. I'm no one and before the Throne of Splendor I am less than nothing. I ONLY HAVE VALUE ...according to what animates me and illuminates me to the degree that I can see or think or feel at all. I'm simply saying that most people, in these times of material darkness, do not see God in EVERYTHING. What most people see is whether they can avoid or acquire, eat or fuck whatever has their attention. Please forgive my use of possibly rude terms to describe what most people get up to. I am only commenting upon what I have observed, sometimes while hidden in the surrounding foliage around various activities. It is safe to say that I have been in places of intense light and very deep darkness more than the average person. I have gone to, or been sent to, all manner of places, to see for myself, what people were getting up to in them.<br />
<br />
As for the places of light that I was permitted to visit, for temporary periods of time, I have my spiritual teacher, my spiritual master, to credit for making that possible. I have a good idea what the residents of Heaven are like and how they interact and behave. I've been there. I also know what the residents of The Infernal Realm are like and how they interact and behave. I've been there. Here I will quote the venerable, Lao Tzu; <i>'though Heaven prefers (favors) no man, the wise man prefers (favors) Heaven.”</i><br />
<br />
Because we are in a time of intense material darkness, the nature of humanity is, for the most part, more influenced by the Infernal Kingdom rather than the Supernal Kingdom. That is changing, incrementally, by the day but... for the moment, most of humanity is in thrall to the darkness. That's just how it is and ALL YOU HAVE TO DO is walk out of your door and into town to see what I am saying, or turn on your TV, or go to the movies, or listen to the radio, or visit the internet. Anyone attempting to argue to the contrary is either remarkably dense and clueless, or an agent of the darkness and we have no shortage of them at this time.<br />
<br />
Now I want to address the MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE OF THE INDUSTRIES OF MR. APOCALYPSE; <b>AWAKENING.</b> Mr. Apocalypse is here to awaken us, in the process of UNCOVERING AND REVEALING. Things shown to us, in dramatic fashion, can have the effect of awakening us. Natural catastrophe's can do this. Personal calamities can do this. Trauma of all types can have this effect. Many people who no longer drink or take certain drugs, or behave in certain questionable ways, do so because of TRAUMA that was visited upon them, as the result of these behaviors, or catastrophes in their personal life. It happens... and we have many witnesses to this.<br />
<br />
Time is marching by my friends and the efforts of Mr. Apocalypse are intensifying. You are going to begin to see things you have not seen before. This is all for THE PURPOSE OF DEMONSTRATION, so that we might learn what is true and what is not, what is real and what is not and... WHO WE ARE AND WHO AND WHAT WE ARE NOT.<br />
<br />
Today... the Fisa warrants are in the public domain. Sparks will fly and those who have been dedicated to impeaching a legally elected president have not been paying attention to their own hindquarters and to just how far into the public view they have intruded themselves and just how much they have REVEALED and EXPOSED about themselves. One must ALWAYS be aware of the vulnerable position they place themselves in when they set about destroying someone else. One should be further aware of what they reveal about themselves when they seek to expose another. Amen to that... as we shall soon see.<br />
<br />
They are going to seek to whitewash this Fisa investigation and soft pedal the findings. Be aware of this but... heads will roll nonetheless. It is the John Durham findings that we need to pay the most attention to because certain individuals are compromised and certain individuals are not.<br />
<br />
<br />
Reality as we think we know it and the world as we think we know it, is about to be set upon its head. I do not know the details of what is going to come to pass. What I do know is that it is going to be unprecedented and astounding. Meanwhile... Lady Nature is due to make several spectacular and gripping appearances. This has already been taking place but... Calamity is on the menu, because those who cannot hear must feel. Also, God Almighty is going to become more and more present in the affairs of humanity; always has been hands on but NOW... it's going to be more apparent. Remarkable appearances are also due to manifest.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is what I have for you, my friends, today.<br />
<br />

<br />
I have been going through some of the most remarkable spiritual changes, ever experienced in my life to this point. Perhaps this is not truly evident in my writings lately (grin) but suffice to say... these days I am in and out of states of childlike wonder that are as surprising as they are welcome. It is as if I have been transported to a much earlier time in my life, a life I never lived but can now feel, as if it really happened. I sense a coming change in the fabric of existence. I can actually feel light breaking through the curtains of darkness that have surrounded us for such a length of time. Maybe I'm just dreaming but this feels... it feels incredible. In respect of this I am going to share with you some of the ideas that have been passing through my mind for a considerable length of time. I hope you will indulge me in this.<br />
<br />
Some of these ideas are very recent, like my idea of a church. Some have been with me for many years. First let me speak to my character and the nature of my composition, as a member of the human race. ALL OF MY LIFE... I have searched for God... persistently... even recklessly... even to an utter indifference to my survival in physical form. I wound up in epic contests with law enforcement and certain mores of this culture. I've been imprisoned more than once and for considerable lengths of time. The result of all that, today, is that I have NO CRIMINAL RECORD. Justice was served, though at great personal cost.<br />
<br />
Over the course of residence on this plane, I have grievously offended various individuals. Although I have forgiven everyone who has ever plotted to have me destroyed, killed and also locked up for the rest of my natural life, none of them have forgiven me, for offenses of a far less serious kind but I understand all of that. My desire has always been to grow spiritually. Not everyone shares my desires and it is good to remember AND I DO REMEMBER that when you offend people's vanity and when you refuse to cooperate with plans they might have for you, which involve your having to present yourself in a dishonest manner and to behave in a dishonest way and WHEN you expose these machinations to them, they are not going to be very forgiving.<br />
<br />
ANY TIME that your objective is to change the status quo and upset the balance of temporal power, be it in the smallest way, or on a larger stage, you are going to get enemies, because you threaten their masquerade and the protocols by which they make their living and the position from which they exercise their influence in life. It all comes down to breaking eggs and making omelets.<br />
<br />
What I will mention today, stems from a conversation I had with the ineffable in which I was told that I might be around for a longer period of time than I imagined previously. It is possible that my real reasons for being here on this plane haven't even been in put into play yet.<br />
<br />
For a very long time I have had an idea for a teaching workspace that covered the gamut of human potential in that area of enterprise. I am talking about a restaurant, deli, food manufacturing business where the people employed lived on the premises.<br />
<br />
I don't like to eat in restaurants. I don't walk into a restaurant thinking about dining out and enjoying whatever the fashioned atmosphere of the place may be. Eating is a sacred thing to me. It involves a state of grace, in which thanks is given and conscious ingestion takes place. When I am in a restaurant I am thinking about what it is the workers in the kitchen are thinking and talking about. I am observing the wait staff and the attitude they bring to their tasks. I am thinking about the oils they use in cooking and whether certain oils from certain meats are permitted to run into other compositions. I am wondering if they are cooking, AS I CERTAINLY DO, with LOVE and INTENTION. Subsequently... I almost never eat in restaurants. Let me add that I have worked in many restaurants in every position there is in that industry. I have also owned several restaurants, as well as managing others. I know what goes on in commercial kitchens.<br />
<br />
I have dreamed of working with a chemically trained chef that knows how to reconstitute things like beans into meat substitutes and... well... all kinds of things. There would be around a dozen tables on the inside, with large deli cases that sold a selection of the comestibles that are made there. Perhaps there would be a few tables outside. Attached to the restaurant would be a dormitory living section, with separate areas for men and women. Those who lived there would be in residence for a period of time. They would receive free lodging, free food and all the basic amenities like bath soap, toothpaste, hairdryers and all of it of the best quality. For money, they could have a part time job on their off time. Pretty much everything they needed would be there for them. Let me point out here that I ALREADY DID THIS for several years in Woodstock NY and it worked in fantastic fashion. It was a big success, until a spiritual teacher came to town and took everyone with him (grin) to Philadelphia.<br />
<br />
Given the opportunity, I would like to do this again, near... but not in, a larger metropolis. There would be, as there was in the last one, a NON-SECTARIAN spiritual atmosphere. The prevailing philosophy is, Love Preeminent and a celebration of The Presence of God, manifesting in and through us. This leads me to the next item on my to do list.<br />
<br />
By this time tomorrow, I will be an ordained minister in The First Church of the Presence of God. Somewhere around next week, the first sermon in this 'presently virtual church' will be available online in video format. Those who have been urging me in this direction for some time will, no doubt, be pleased. Those, who are in opposition to my endeavors (and who remain around 100% anonymous), at the blogs and in the various arenas I operate in, will, of course, be dismayed or scornful. We will proceed nonetheless (grin) just as we always have, come rain, come shine, come support, or opposition, we will proceed.<br />
<br />
I have been in an ever increasing conversation with my invisible friends about the state of the world, about my behavior in the day to day, about so many different and diverse subjects that listing them would probably be more amusing than anything else. I delight in the Presence of God and the sure and certain knowledge of the presence of his angels of all ranks and duties. I can only speak for myself but I will say, unequivocally, that despite the majority of my life having been composed of a relentless procession of misfortunes, adversities and torments, by degrees... by incremental degrees, the distress and hardship has decreased and virtually disappeared in recent years. If you persevere, you will prevail. This is no journey to be undertaken lightly and if you lack the necessary sand you will soon find yourself terminally discouraged.<br />
<br />
I can think of no better testimony to the nature of this journey than the poem, “The Wayfarer” by Steven Crane; “The wayfarer, perceiving the pathway to truth, was struck with astonishment. It was thickly grown with weeds. "Ha," he said, "I see that none has passed here in a long time." Later he saw that each weed was a singular knife. "Well," he mumbled at last, "Doubtless there are other roads." This is what I encountered. It is what everyone encounters who sets off on this quest. It is why the narrow way, the high road, is so empty of traffic.<br />
<br />
By ordinary life standards, I've been here awhile. I am not the same fellow who set out upon this adventure. I am not the same fellow who occupied this form a year ago. I suppose this could be said of all of us but some of us change more dramatically, depending on the drama in which we are engaged. I know there are people who appreciate what I do and people who don't. I will add that, at no time, were those who do not appreciate what happens here, invited here to begin with. For reasons that remain unclear, some of these anonymous critics have been coming here for years. I wonder why that is?<br />
<br />
The dogs bark but the caravan moves on. ANYONE who seeks to discover the secrets of existence and who is not deterred in the initial stages, can count on routine and regular obstructions the whole way. It is permitted by the invisible hierarchy, to check and to temper the mettle of the voyager. It comes with the territory. One can either keep their eyes fixed upon the prize, or they can devolve into meaningless arguments with those who employ such stratagems for lack of an otherwise compelling enough vocation. Idle minds are the devil's workshop. It also speaks to the certainty that you will serve someone or something, if only by default. ♫That's just the way it goes. Some things will never change♫ We all have to answer to ourselves.<br />
<br />
We are all called to something and we all answer to something, even if some of us NEVER understand any of it but simply continue to go through the motions. I am making plans to make God laugh because I like God's laughter. I left the ranks of the self important a long time ago. I recognize my insignificance before the splendor of the throne of the Almighty. No one, following an encounter with The Divine, is left with any sense of their own value and importance, by comparison. This is one of the unique qualities I have observed in every illumined soul that I had the good fortune to encounter, their remarkable humility. It was as if they had seen something, or someone, that reduced them to the status of as 'humble as dirt'. They all shone with an interior light because their personalities had become a stained glass window, through which the light of Heaven shined. By comparison with the author and permitter of all things, we each amount to not very much at all. Another unique quality that I observed was their capacity for selfless service.<br />
<br />
Losing oneself in selfless service, amounts to a state of liberation that no words could ever describe. How could anyone, having once tasted the bliss of the resident indwelling, ever, ever consider anything else as being of any value at all?<br />
<br />
<br />
Opportunities to do remarkable things are present in the lives of every one of us. It's up to us what we do with them.<br />

Dog Poet Transmitting.......<br />
<br />
I have a lot of time on my hands. This is not because I am a member of the idle rich. I am not. However, there is a context in which I could be considered rich, far richer than anyone you know and with a great deal more freedom than they because I am not mortally invested in the possession of what they require to maintain their lifestyle. Also... the source of my wealth cannot be challenged. It can't be taken from me.<br />
<br />
As I said... I have a lot of time on my hands; eternity, actually, to do as I wish, even though I don't wish to do anything but serve. I might wish to cease the various conflicts and states of war across the planet but that would be both foolish and ineffective. Conditions are exactly what people want them to be. Of course, they don't know this but it is true none the less. <i>“But surely, Visible, there must be much that you wish to do; what about Self Realization, Liberation, Nirvana, Enlightenment? These are all the sort of things you talk about as being desirable?”</i><br />
<br />
<br />
How would I answer something like that? First I would say that wishing or desiring any of these items would only serve to drive them away. Furthermore, all of those are guaranteed and in the process of coming to me as these words are being written... alternatively, I might be moving toward them as well.<br />
<br />
Let's say that we call all of these states of being, Kansas City and let's say that I might take a train. I might take a plane but... if I have to walk, I'm going to get there just the same. I've been previously informed that all of these things and all things similar are indeed to be found in that metaphorical Kansas City. Well, of course, I am headed for Kansas City at this very moment. Not the terrestrial Kansas City that shows up in your GPS, if that happens to be your objective, but the 'other' Kansas City we have come to understand possesses all of the items and states attractive to Visible.<br />
<br />
What if I told you that I could tell you in detail how to get to your own Kansas City and that it isn't bullshit... or part of some philosophical construct designed to make a point. No! It's a real thing and I most certainly could tell you how to do this. In fact, I have been doing just that all along, for as long as I have been doing this. I've pointed out the location of valuable sources of information, directly relevant to this. I've indicated practices and behavior patterns that will put you on the fast track to hot-housing your own spiritual evolution.<br />
<br />
What if I told you that rather than go through many, many lifetimes of suffering and toil, interspersed with brief intervals of pleasure and occasional draughts from the waters of Lethe, you could waltz right out of here in a single lifetime? What if I told you the pursuit of happiness was a dead end and that you HAD TO EXPERIENCE equal amounts of unhappiness to enjoy that happiness? What if I told you this whole world is a sham designed to break your heart and leave you empty and bitter? Well... I have told you that in many different ways all along. Let's go back to the first sentence in this paragraph; the one about evading all of the guaranteed misery, awaiting you in the aftermath of capturing ANYTHING you desired or set out after, motivated by desire to do so.<br />
<br />
<br />
Krishna said,<br />
<br />
<i>“Success is speedy for the energetic.”</i><br />
<br />
He didn't lie. He was/is an avatar. Avatars don't lie.<br />
<br />
<br />
Yes... I could clearly and definitively lay it all out for you and if you took off after any one of SEVERAL options I could present you with, you would... with the aid of Faith, Certitude and Determination and Invisible Friends, reach your goal in this lifetime... or... so fast track your objective that you would never have to concern yourself with the gain and the loss, the failure or success of it again. In fact... I know of portals where you don't even have to come back here again. You can finish it all up in an astral loka and evade the torments of the flesh entirely. You would 't have to worry about running into Pinhead and the Cenobites. Everything I am telling you here is the truth. It profits me nothing to lie to you and the penalties for that are not something I would EVER CONSIDER. <i>“But... Visible... what if you are misinformed and you lead us astray unintentionally; not meaning to, of course but... nonetheless...”</i><br />
<br />
No... I am as certain as certain can be that I speak correctly, insofar as such things can be put into words, which... in the elementary stages, they can and beyond that... indications can be given.<br />
<br />
Here we are... halfway through this commentary and we haven't arrived at the point of it yet. The point of it is that I can most certainly do what I have stated I can do and long before this came before you, many another has said the same thing, with variations shaped for the time and place they appeared in. This is not the problem. The problem is that hardly anyone wants it. Oh yes... hardly anyone, confronted with clear and precise directions, wants to go to Kansas City. Oh sure... everyone wants to BUT... BUT... BUT... First they have to do this and then they have to do that and there's always the possibility... the certain possibility that they will miss out on something else if they do. Yes... that is quite true. You will definitely miss out on all kinds of things that you have misidentified as containing something that can't be found in any of those things ...BUT... that is the point of being here; finding that out.<br />
<br />
A thousand... a hundred thousand lifetimes down the road... epiphany will finally make its presence known. The Road to Damascus will appear and that timeless drama will take place. Alternatively, you might wake up in a pigsty and remember your father's house. There are all sorts of circumstances that this can take place in and eventually it will BUT... at what a cost in the interim? First the kiss, then the lash... then the kiss... then the lash... then the kiss... then the lash... for as long as you can stand it and... sometimes... well beyond that.<br />
<br />
You can get the sense of the meaning of Karma RIGHT HERE... right in this moment, because... what is it that would prohibit you... or anyone... from deciding right this moment to head off for the ever flowing fountain of perpetual bliss (which is your own intrinsic nature) and NEVER LOOK BACK? What is it that has put these blinders over your vision... these Samskaras? It's Karma, neh?<br />
<br />
YOU ARE the eternal pure and free, self illumined Atman (soul) right now. All that is lacking is the awareness of it and all that is coming between you and that awareness, is the more persistent awareness of that kingdom presented to you upon the narrow bandwidth of the physical senses.<br />
<br />
This is a world of pain and anguish, of doubt and uncertainty, of disease... old age and death. Sure... just about every time you've had enough of that... along comes something else to capture your attention, to distract you. The kaleidoscope of enchantment is always turning. It's the nature of the beast. It is how The World, The Devil and The Deep Blue Sea operate. There is ONLY ONE SANE MOTIVATION IN LIFE and that is to GET OUT OF HERE! If you don't think so right this moment, you will. You will.<br />
<br />
Up and down. In and out. The wavy Bio-Rhythmic convolutions of Cause and Effect, dance in their timeless choreography for the Purpose of Demonstration. The perpetual sex act of interacting opposites and their countless offspring, are coming round the mountain to greet you, further down the road, which runs, 'ever on and on'.. Some of us spend each day, dining in the ivory tower, moving through our circles of acquaintances in the ballroom at the Overlook Hotel... 'redrum... redrum...' The hungry ghosts are magnetized by the centers of attraction, where the appetites of manifest life, were once celebrated. Many another of us, exists in a state of perpetual want, with adversity close at hand and each of these momentary states of Fortune and Famine... trade places with regularity. On rare occasions, those few of us who have been, the good stewards of prosperity, have behaved in that fashion appreciated by the Lords of Karma... otherwise... look out.<br />
<br />
It is a mystery, is it not? Why would anyone prefer the vicissitudes of chance and change to have their unforgiving way with us? Why do we persist in our residence in the land of temporary dreams? Now and again, one will break free of the herd and with a determined persistence... find the Kingdom of God within. Often that singular soul will leave footprints, should another care to inquire about what is really extant in the (no so) fearful unknown.<br />
<br />
The time in which we are presently here is a remarkable occasion. Times like these and the opportunities available, come round at rare intervals. It is possible in these times to make spiritual progress that would not be possible at another time. Will you avail yourself of this precious moment? Time will tell and we shall see. Angels unseen, await the chance to assist you. Once the commitment has been made, all the forces of good will rush to your side. Perhaps I am just a voice, howling in the wilderness of personal delusion. Better men than me, by far, have said much the same thing. There is something within us that KNOWS the truth of this. It is that very something that is speaking right now through your humble servant.<br />
<br />
<br />
In a moment... it could all change. In a moment, the moment will have passed. Seize the moment, while it is yet upon you. No one of us knows when the hour will come round and the note will come due. To get a vague idea of how close anything may be, one has only to observe the trends passing and what they suggest of things to come.<br />
<br />
<br />
May God make his presence known to you and may you answer the call. This is my prayer for you.<br />
<br />
<br />

Dog Poet Transmitting.......<br />
<br />
Sometimes... and increasingly more and more... one has to repeat certain statements because... as time passes, they become progressively more and more obvious, palpable, present and... in this particular instance, more and more, OFF THE HOOK!<br />
<br />
We've said this half a dozen times already and it looks like we are going to be saying it even more than that. We are thinking of posting it as part of a PERMANENT MISSION STATEMENT, front and center and maybe even to either side in every blog, or creative construct we work through, given that video is soon to become a predictable mainstay. As time gets short, there is a need to, literally, get in your face. Of course we are not talking about aggressive confrontation. We are talking about using every medium available to reach people, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU GIVE A SHIT.<br />
<br />
Now... what is it that we have been saying with an ever intensifying frequency? MATERIALISM is the go to corrupter of all good things. It's immediate offspring is INSANITY. From this further, slug-like coupling, comes the murky, oil slick rainbow of sexual perversity. Excess becomes a legitimate lifestyle. Fat, stupid and crazy becomes a desirable life goal. It is something to shoot for, even if the recommendation here is that you shoot yourself first and save yourself the pointless and ever heightening suffering that is ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEED to accompany you through every moment in your life, IF you continue in this fashion.<br />
<br />
One can literally trace the progression of CRAZY, as it moves through its recognizable and definable phases. Usually it starts... almost always it starts with LYING TO YOURSELF. The next step is to insulate yourself from the truth of this, with as many layers of flesh, denial and delusion as is possible. The goal is to look as much like the functionaries sitting behind the members of the <b>House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence</b> (during the impeachment proceedings) as is possible. The next step is to dress in tight, form fitting clothes, like a Victoria's Secret, runway or magazine model... because... because; YOU GO GIRL!!! (or boy- or whatever you are trying to morph into) The next step is to buy a garden trowel and make liberal use of EVERY Walgreen's cosmetic you can find, for that Kabuki effect and then get a pictorial, tattoo graphic, of the Pentateuch, on every available area of skin, thus also justifying the need for so much extra skin. Following that... you are going to need a combination of purple, green and pink streaks through your hair. Your personality is going to adjust accordingly as you continue, from alienated, to agitated, to angry and then to a shrieking, hysterical shitfit of tragic comic proportions.<br />
<br />
All of these changes are not only to be desired but are also socially encouraged and legitimate, because YOU SAY what is beautiful and attractive and if anybody doesn't like it? Off with their heads! Fire them from their teaching positions or jobs of whatever type! Marginalize them and shame them with public disapproval. How could they possibly know what sublime empyrean, of an all encompassing sky of wonder, is presently trapped in horrific disguise?<br />
<br />
Okay... okay... enough of my demeaning people with no self control and no sense of self. (WHAT?!?) Wait a minute! There's a cosmic secret hidden in that first sentence. It's right there on the tip of my mind... it's coming! I can feel it coming! It's just out for clearance. Yes!!! Thank you! I love it when I find out some deeper and generally hidden truth about existence. Don't you?<br />
<br />
<br />
No doubt... and more and more these days, there will be people offended at my exercising my First Amendment rights. Need I point out that an unfortunately large percentage of the rest of you, offend me constantly but I manage to contain my disapproval... usually if barely? However, this is the blog titled, “Reflections in a Petri Dish” and you might want to read the blurb up at the masthead.<br />
<br />
I take no pleasure on calling out elements of cultural decay... but if something isn't done and if no one says anything, it's not going to be here much longer and whatever there may be that remains of it will not be fit for living in by SANE PEOPLE. Then again... the Lord God is in control of everything so... don't let manipulated appearances deceive and bring you down.<br />
<br />
<br />
Social Justice Warriors are NOT SANE. Antifa Jacobin Reincarnates are NOT SANE. Most university professors and functionaries are NOT SANE. Most psychologists and psychiatrists are NOT SANE! Most Alt-Sex practitioners are NOT SANE. Gender Fluid Troglodytes are NOT SANE. People transitioning from one sex to another are NOT SANE. Materialists are NOT SANE. Satanists (Satanism is the official religion of Materialism) are NOT SANE. Most famous entertainers are NOT SANE. Most people employed in the media are NOT SANE. Liberals are generally NOT SANE. Religious figures, in most cases, are NOT SANE. Those preying upon the human race are NOT SANE. Just as that classic logic argument goes, about black crows, or anything... in that sense, it can be said that MOST PEOPLE ARE NOT SANE and the numbers are increasing commensurate with the escalating press of Materialism.<br />
<br />
I've considered sarcastic and satirical takes on what I see bubbling in this noxious cultural stew. I was a comedian of the stand up variety for a short while. It didn't take long for me to discover the kind of people you wind up hanging out with and the sorts of audiences that profession attracts. I've looked into all manner of occupations that provided me with a vehicle to support myself and promote my arts. It didn't take me long to see what you have to go through to be a touring or club musician. It didn't take me very long to see what you get subjected to as an actor. Being a writer, gives you the best case scenario for being less visible and the greatest freedom of expression. Being a mystic provides the best environment for an up close and personal relationship with The Supreme Being.<br />
<br />
As CRAZY amplifies, in accordance with the force of MATERIALISM, the sane head for the hinterlands and the hills. CRAZY people don't notice that people are being deliberately herded toward urban settings. Most people don't see the transit paddocks to the killing floor. CRAZY people don't notice the Mass Kill schematics that are being formulated and employed from a variety of levels of operation for varying degrees of impact. CRAZY people are ALL ABOUT whatever particular obsession proved to be the weakest link in the chain, as Mr. Apocalypse bears down upon it. This is why you see you so much acting out of different psychological abnormalities. What is or is not normal is no longer a consideration in any case. Now the sine qua non is, “How do you feel about it?” That is the base line for sanity. If you're okay with it, then you're good to go and if not? There's a pill or a therapy that will help you to integrate your CRAZY into the greater CRAZY.<br />
<br />
There is a psychological term called, 'accommodation'. A good example of this is, if you live in a city and you have your window open and someone is operating a jackhammer in the street outside, you will no longer hear it, following a period of accommodation. This applies to things you see as well. If you see it all the time, it becomes normal, or not even there. Often you don't even register its presence. It could be, (and is) certainly, NOT NORMAL but one's objective capacity is muted... because the subjective has become the ruling authority in your consciousness. It controls the nature and parameters of your awareness. There are people who are now doing all kinds of things that are CRAZY, just to fit in. Kids in school are claiming to be a sex other than their birth sex because it confers ACCEPTANCE AND ESPECIALLY... POPULARITY. How is it possible that we are now discussing gender in terms of statements like, <b>'the gender ASSIGNED to you at birth'?</b><br />
<br />
CRAZY is rampantly proliferate. It is a runaway bacteria. It is a mind parasite. It is latent in all of us but certain behaviors activate and feed it. Other behaviors render it quiescent. All would be lost by now were it not for THE PRESENCE of The Almighty, who is the prime mover and from whom ALL FORCE is resident and emergent. In his appearance as Mr. Apocalypse, he is initiating (has initiated) a GRAND AWAKENING. It is in progress as these words are being written. This IS AN APOCALYPSE!!! And it demonstrates in stages, each one of which is exponentially greater than the previous phase. This means that the levels of force are going to be dramatically intensified and as time is also collapsing, it's all going to be going down in what 'seem to be' shorter periods of time. In other words, YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHING YET!<br />
<br />
<b>“All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are 'the called' according to his purpose.”</b> So... factor that into the PURPOSE OF DEMONSTRATION. All manifest life, exists for the PURPOSE OF DEMONSTRATION. Let the ineffable demonstrate through you, as opposed to the opposer, who is the alternative format. It doesn't matter how CRAZY the world gets, <b>IF YOU ARE ALIGNED WITH AND IN ACCORD WITH</b> The Divine Indwelling. This means, basically, that you are not at war with yourself and therefore, not at war with the world you are in and which is then (by extension) defined by the nature and degree of your aggression. The truth is exceedingly simple. It only becomes complex WHEN WE SEEK TO ADD EXCEPTIONS to accommodate and justify OUR DESIRES. It is what it is. If ANYTHING is what it is... it would be The Truth which, is ALSO resident within. What do you know? You've got everything you need.<br />

Dog Poet Transmitting.......<br />
<br />
I have been sitting here, waiting for the Eagles/Seahawks game and asked the ineffable, “What do you want me to talk about today?” This isn't something I've done with regularity (like I probably should have been). Mostly I just sit down and let it produce itself. About every ten times, I'll have a problem with the post. A couple of days might slide by and then... so does the post. It's replacement will roar out of the gate in under an hour. So... I asked the ineffable what he might like me to write about and there was... silence. I went over to a news site and... there I saw a blurb, amidst a lot of other blurbs, which read, <i>“Ruth Bader-Meinhoff Ginsburg hospitalized for chills and fever.”</i> What is interesting here is that I had just been listening to a report about yet another judicial appointment by President Trump to the 11 Circuit Court of Appeals.<br />
<br />
What should be pointed out is that this court and the one in New York, handles almost all of the cases on their way to The Supreme Court and almost all of them get decided in these courts and don't get sent up the ladder. Was it Fate? Was it some mysterious synchronicity? Was it an invisible push that sent me from one news item to the next? Hmmmm... Whatever the case may be, I want to point out that 'fevers and chills' ALWAYS precede The Big P. AND... it is The Big P that takes you down, when you are at an advanced age and have been wrestling with increasing bouts of frailty and discomfort. I suspect Judge Ginsburg is arranging for the ferryman's fee at The River Styx, as I write these words; could be wrong but...<br />
<br />
I only mention this because I'm not emotionally invested in the outcome. I try to 'have made' such a thing, a thing of the past. Looks like Kismet will have its way anyway. What this means is that... regardless of the hopes and fears of supporters and opponents about the election, I doubt Ruth makes in much further down the road on this plane. This means a solid conservative is going to move through the Senate and the balance of power is going to be 6-3. It's been a long time since there was anything like that and NEVER has this country been in a state as critical as this, with big ticket legal briefs, that could decide major cultural issues. It ever we NEEDED a stanch conservative bench, IT IS NOW!!! This is especially true because of The Rhino Chief Justice.<br />
<br />
There are forces in this country that want to make Heterosexuality a second class citizen. There are forces that want to start race wars and... if there is chaos and havoc associated with it, there are forces pressing the issue. There are forces ACTIVELY pressing for the teaching of perversity in grade school. There are forces that want to make having an informed opinion, hate think and talking about it, hate speech. There is a subliminal technology at work that is acting upon the subconscious of the widespread unaware among us. We've gone some distance since Edward Bernays. Attitude, opinion, perspective and belief systems are being formed in the backroom of consciousness by a massaging, rhythmic shaping. No one is going to tell me otherwise about this because it is palpable to me, which is why I am not impacted on by it.<br />
<br />
You have to see the enemy of humanity as a creature, not unlike an octopus or a squid. Each tentacle is a separate industry and all of them work to the benefit of the creature. The industries that create cancer (processed foods, wave making techs and assorted) are a tentacle or two and the medical industry is another. The pharmaceutical industry is another. The 'banker financed' war making industry is a tentacle and the weapons manufacturers are another tentacle. I call this monster, Globoctopi. It's got rows of big sharp teeth AND poisonous fangs.<br />
<br />
I am going to speak as plainly to you as I can. First though and MOST IMPORTANTLY, God-The Divine-The Supreme Architect and Commander; the real Master and Commander, who is not Russell Crowe, is ALWAYS IN CHARGE OF EVERYTHING... PERIOD... WITHOUT EXCEPTION and ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH IS IT DONE UNTO YOU!!! So... if you have a deep and solid bond with your creator, it doesn't matter where you are. If you do not have such a relationship, it very much does matter. Karma is THE AUTHORITY... unless, you have a deep and solid bond with your creator and he is 'moved' on your behalf, that's what is written and so... you won't be reading anything like this. You won't be ceaselessly seeking the good offices of The Angelic Realm. HEAR ME! Unless you are persistently in the pursuit of the ineffable, you are in The Land of the Last Jot and Tittle.<br />
<br />
Let us say... you are paying attention and you are reading this... BEWARE OF THE CITIES. This is where it is going to go down. For decades now, I have been trying to put together a community of kindred souls and have met with opposition of all kinds; lack of necessary finances, timing, my own behavior (intentionally provoked by the ineffable) and sundry. Later it occurred to me that a community that does not form itself, is subject to all manner of undesirable conditions; not the least of these is <b>THE ENEMY WITHIN</b>. I am no longer concerned with this. If it is meant to get done. It will get done. It is not my affair. Now... my dreaming project, is to build a meditation garden for 'the practice of the presence' and possibly, help to found The First Church of the Presence of God. Basically, you celebrate the indwelling and recognize the indwelling in everyone you meet. Everything else is window dressing, ceremonies and rituals for those who need them (grin).<br />
<br />
I think we can be pretty clear about the timeline of it all now. The most critical election in American history is coming up a year from now. The world population continues to increase. Food shortages are inevitable. 5G is set to wreak turmoil AND Natural Calamity + Global Political Revolution, is coming or already in progress. The Satanists, with Little Georgie Sorrows and his ilk are pressing for catastrophe. Their plan has been in the works for a long time now. They knew about The Apocalypse and the one riding in upon the winds of change. For the Infernal Realm AND the Supernal Realm, it's a numbers game. It is all about the Grand Summing Up; the harvesting. Time to get with the program, my friends.<br />
<br />
What I suspect is that there is going to be a fury of ruination and a great passing of lives, followed by a Golden Age of fabulous technologies and an awakened humanity, expressed in the arts and letters of the time and guided and powered by the Second Coming of the Christ ...IN THE HUMAN HEART. I expect a flowering of the age and a time of wonder and celebration BUT... this will not be everywhere and it may not be at all. The wheel is still in spin. It is the aggregate intensity of Love in the hearts of humanity that will determine outcome. Let us pray and lend our shoulders to the great wheel of selfless service that The Master, The Galilean, drew the blueprint for, long ago.<br />
<br />
This is a time of the most remarkable spiritual opportunities. Seldom... very seldom does a time like this arrive. As has been stated here, MANY TIMES, that is why the degree of difficulty and the distractions are so great. This is why so many people are here. The force of pedestrian appearances is so great that few of us can see through them. Business as usual, has become most unusual, ...but there is something mesmeric in control of the collective mind.<br />
<br />
Yesterday, I found myself in the company of angels, via internal communication. I had been pressing for this for a very long time and only had encountered it previously, when in a seriously altered state of consciousness. This indicates to me that the time is now fast approaching, because I wouldn't be hearing from this particular group of invisible friends otherwise. To say that I am overjoyed and literally walking on air is an understatement. I know there is a whole area of humanity that talks about regular communications with the angelic order but... my name is not Crystal Blue Persuasion and I don't charge a dollar a minute to tell you about what they are going to do for you. You won't be getting details from me in any case. This is just to say that when the accouterments engines of the divine, draw near to the Earth, something is brewing. Some might say... “the angels are always here.” Yes... that is true. 'Some of them are'. Some of them are engaged in the daily affairs of humanity, JUST LIKE THEIR COUNTERPARTS ARE. There are also a surprising number of entities that masquerade as angels but a time comes when their presence becomes noticeable, even to one in the lower ranks, like myself.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is a time for attending to your spatial awareness. This is a time for praying as you go, as often as you can remember to. This is a time for practicing the presence of God ...at all times... BECAUSE NOT IN RECORDED MEMORY has the chance of divine appearance WITHIN been so fortuitous. Now is the time to seek to awaken the Great Love within that it might rule, motivate and inspire your EVERY THOUGHT, WORD AND DEED.<br />
<br />
<br />
That's what I got for today.<br />

<br />
The war is heating up. Somehow Chick-Filet backed off from donating any more money to The Salvation Army! Now... the slathering Huns of sexual excess are going after the Thanksgiving Day, Dallas Cowboy's game, where the Salvation Army traditionally launches their Christmas fund raising campaign. Some UK Bimbette, whom I have never heard of, has threatened not to sing at the game unless The Salvation Army is given its walking papers. Boo hoo!<br />
<br />
I find a lot of larger Christian churches and charities to be questionable in their intent and the manner in which they disburse their giving. I do not find this to be true of The Salvation Army. They are GOOD PEOPLE. They are a credit to their mission and they HELP EVERYBODY, regardless of where they put their genitals and no matter how delusional their sexual fantasies may be in these times of Pandemic Gender Hallucination and the latest Frankenstein efforts to turn anyone into anything they might temporarily think they are, whether that be a man, a woman, a 7 year old girl or a transsexual flower pistil which, in fact, many of them already are. Flowers are complex forms of being and they got Stamens that are combines of filaments and anthers and they got Pistils that have their variant of an ovary and ALSO a stigma and a style. The result is that they can be wholly male, wholly female or USUALLY....... BOTH!!!<br />
<br />
Flowers do not have the advantage, nor... as far as I know, the bizarre inclinations to surgically alter themselves at a whim, given that Lady Nature has given them the capacity to switch round all over the place without damage or censure. On the other hand, Human Beings have the capacity to be surgically altered and the result of that has been the highest suicide rate going, for any transition process that I know of. They live in gruesome regret when they don't kill themselves.<br />
<br />
Given what I just said and given the MANY... MANY... MANY other examples of this war against Natural Harmony, Human Nature, Common Decency, Freedom of Speech and most importantly; Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness; not to overlook Human Dignity and Freedom of Personal Beliefs and Choice, where they do not impinge upon the same in another person's God Given right to be here and express similar aspects of what we have come to call 'individual rights'... given what I've already said, if this is a war against all that is right and good and reasonable, what are we supposed to do about it? Should we pick up a cudgel or some-such and leap into the fray? Sounds to me like another potential case of blind people gumming each other to death.<br />
<br />
What we do is- in my estimation- seek a deeper communion with our own being and lead by example in all we think and say and do. Some part of me ALWAYS believed this but my behavior at times was not indicative of it. I was wild and reckless. I suppose it was a persona born of my fiery artistic nature; to put as romantic a spin on it as possible. I was consumed with the zest for living and I was not going to be constrained by any temporal authority whatsoever. As you can imagine, I ran afoul of the law for an extended period of time. None of that; the confinements and ancillary punishments, the very real dangers and threats against my life... moved me one wit. In that regard I am still as I was but I am more circumspect in my behavior (grin) of course and I am now left alone. Also, by this time, there is nothing I engage in anymore than runs contrary to any sane or sensible law. I have learned a few things after all. I added this in to give context to why I say what I say today.<br />
<br />
Whether there is a war going on out there or not, is of no matter to me AND... I am inserting myself more personally into this posting than I usually do because of what I said about leading by example so... all that I am going to say is of a personal perspective and you can take it or leave it. It is the product of what I have learned and some of which... came at the cost of extreme suffering. I'd rather no other person goes through what I did... or puts themselves through what I have. That said, I will continue.<br />
<br />
Whether a war is going on out there or not, is of no matter to me. There is ALWAYS A WAR GOING ON OUT THERE because a large portion of the people are at war with themselves and that makes perfect sense since, THEIR BODIES ARE COMPOSED OF 4 INIMICAL AND WARRING ELEMENTS! This is why there is such a remarkable book as The Bhagavad Gita, which I consider to be one of the more direct expressions of The Poetry of God and a composition of remarkable and enduring truth. Anyone who doesn't understand why the world is the way the world is should read it; if for no other reason than that. AND... anyone looking for a way out of this 'perception of endless conflict' should read it for that reason too, however, in that respect there is more than one holy book that can be referenced, such as the teachings of Jesus the Christ and Siddhartha Gautama.<br />
<br />
No one can make war on someone who is at peace with themselves and no one can threaten or intimidate anyone who understands the truth in the following statements; “If God is for me, who can be against me?” “Greater is that which is in you than that which is in the world.” Let me insert some of my own poor contributions to the whole, 'the Devil works for God', 'the Devil is the way the wicked see God', 'no man who is his own master can be made into a slave' and 'just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it isn't there and just because you can, doesn't mean it is.' I only include my own, which you have already seen before to again confirm why I say... 'Whether there is a war going on out there or not, is of no matter to me.'<br />
<br />
Don't go around seeing evil here and there. See good in everything. By example- trends that seem alarming in the world may well be on their way to turning into something else. Also... the raging fanatics and bonafide lunatics, presently running the asylum, are in the process of killing themselves off. Nature CANNOT BE USURPED! Nature IS THE POWER OF GOD IN EXPRESSION. Nature is the whirling, dynamic, manifesting energy of existence; the active expression of the will of God. God... the supreme, is in a motionless eternity of being. God is in a ceaseless meditation, by the power of which, all things are maintained. God can also be in quite a few more than two places at once. God is also and will ALWAYS BE, beyond the comprehension of our minds. Accepting this is a real helpmate to the acquisition of UNDERSTANDING. By the grace of God... impersonal and beyond definition, he routinely manifests in a personal fashion and THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO ENTER INTO A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, through his personal aspect. Some would argue otherwise. Let them. I only know what works for me.<br />
<br />
God has appeared in many different costumes, according to the needs of the time and the culture in which he appears. These all come out of the Cosmic Wardrobe and it is one of the unfortunate truths of manifest existence that people tend to worship the costumes, rather than THE LIVING GOD, who expressed through them. They wear coffin bound glitter suits and hold up old bones and state that they have the power of God. This is not true. Saying this, has on occasions, cost many people their lives. God is a living and presently living being. Whatever he may have worn once upon a time can contain elements of wisdom and spiritual resources BUT one is FAR MORE ADVANTAGED to seek for AND FIND the LIVING GOD within. “The Kingdom is Heaven is within YOU.”<br />
<br />
You don't have to look hither and yon. You don't have to contort yourself into all manner of postures and poses to get God's attention. God is already far more aware of you than you are of yourself. GOD IS WATCHING and you can't fool him. He knows your intentions and the deeper secrets of your heart, of which some amount is hidden from you. IF YOU are sincere and dedicated and DO NOT GIVE UP, you cannot fail to make contact with the indwelling almighty. YOU CANNOT FAIL!!! Books are an aid... meditation... prayer... these are all aids, but of far greater value is a surrendered and contrite heart.<br />
<br />
There are some things God treasures more than others. This I have learned through observation of those who have ATTAINED TO DIRECT CONVERSATION WITH GOD. He highly treasures, humility, constancy and a heart given over completely to him, so... therefore, unswerving loyalty as well. This is why there is such a thing as The Greatest Commandment. Ponder this well. Why??? Why did this get said, <i>“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?”</i> And he said to him, <i>“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, with all your strength and with all your mind.</i> This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: <i>“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”</i> What does this curious section imply- <i>“And a second is like it.”</i> What do you suppose that means?<br />
<br />
I LOVE little clues and leadings. I have profited greatly from a certain kind of curiosity and I recommend acquiring it. God knows, right this moment, what you are up to. He has multitudes of ranks of angels who minister to and record the events of existence. Angels are extensions of God and whatever they see and hear, so does God. Right this moment, God is watching you. Cave Dei Videt!<br />
<br />
<br />
I think we're done here (grin). MY DEAR FRIENDS... we do not know the hour of the coming of The Lord. This is why we are encouraged to be watchful and vigilant. Pray without ceasing to the limits of your ability and see what happens. Also... serve as you go, opportunities present themselves regularly but we often do not see them. IT IS REAL. This is a real thing. No more than that needs be said.<br />

<br />
There are, of course, many things and situations in this world for one to desire or aspire after. The resulting karma of acquiring or achieving anything here, comes to pass in various ways. It can certainly be said ...and... here I speak as a voice of experience on the subject, a significant majority of the things and situations we can desire or aspire after here are not worth the getting. Disappointment can be a significant feature of karma and so can Regret and 20/20 hindsight. I believe another byproduct of Karma is; 'live and learn'... alternatively... 'don't live and don't learn'. Both of these occur with regularity.<br />
<br />
In the end... life wears almost everyone down. We wear the marks of our struggles and those marks are what? They are the scars of the effort expended by the separated self, in its pursuit of personal desires and aspirations in this world, which also brings one into conflict with every other competing interest. THIS is SELF EVIDENT, unless you are not yourself. If you are not yourself, everything is seen through the lens of false-self interest. It makes sense (whatever 'it' is)... in THAT THEATER of enterprise.<br />
<br />
I often like to think of the Chakras as being like floors in a department store. The spinal cord runs like an elevator all the way to the Sahasrara Penthouse. It runs from the basement, where the Kunda Pool resides. When you exit the elevator on any floor, every item is a reflection of that department. Each floor is a world unto itself. Some people spend most of their lives on just a couple of floors, especially in times of material darkness and they've no idea of the wonders to be encountered on the floors above.<br />
<br />
Imagine, if you will, (cue Rod Serling) finding yourself on a floor where you want nothing at all because you are filled to the brim (and overflowing) with Bliss beyond description. You can sample every ware in every department, move effortlessly between them and your state of being is not changed. You are then, truly... in the world but not of it. We want things until we get them and then we don't want them anymore. This is the result of the relentless cycle of desire, more often that anyone cares to think. This is especially something most do not want to think about. It takes all the fun out of it.<br />
<br />
There are a number of magical rules and laws of Nature that exist which most people are totally unaware of. Still... every one of us has had magical, inexplicable things happen to us, like an act of serendipity. Some might think it was simply their due and that can be the case. Some might think it is in answer to a prayer, or just good luck. I don't bring this up to provide some all encompassing answer for this happening. I bring it up to STATE that it is altogether possible to live in a world where these sort of serendipitous occurrences are happening, ALL THE TIME!<br />
<br />
A clue can be found in one's childhood. Surely you remember when the days were brimming with a Rolodexing waterfall of wonder and delight. Summer lasted seemingly forever. First loves were a joy beyond description. These are a few examples of a state of being which was also a state of mind. The world had not yet divided into the duality dance of opposites; most especially male and female, although... these days... the waters of identity insanity, are muddier than The Big Muddy, in flood times. The world changes after the loss of one's innocence, which is why REGENERATED INNOCENCE is the divinest of consummations to be wished.<br />
<br />
One can readily see, with the sexualization of children, the spread of rampant pedophilia and all attending outrages; the cynical hand and eye of the Prince of Darkness and his minions. Job One for the Infernal Realm is the despoliation and destruction of innocence and YOU SEE IT AT WORK EVERYWHERE!<br />
<br />
<br />
We're not here to talk about what we can do about any of this because ALL OF IT comes down to personal choice and each choice will be judged on the merits, <b>as it meets the touchstone of Truth</b>. We are here to talk about how to protect your innocence and- if it is gone... how to get it back.<br />
<br />
Of course, all of you are familiar with the statement by Jesus the Christ;<br />
<br />
<i>“Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”</i><br />
<br />
People tend to... after a certain time... gloss over remarks they have read or heard before. They have perfunctory reactions. Timeless and eternal truths become no more than Yadda Yadda. Timeless and eternal truths deserve serious reflection. They deserve deep consideration BECAUSE... timeless and eternal truths have deeper and ever more deep meanings, when one studies them with intention and an open heart and mind and is patient, as needs be, when waiting for inspired scripture to respond in an oracular fashion. It will speak to you on a deeper level if you are patient. It does not reveal itself to the impatient, the dabblers and dilettantes and assorted small change operatives. Here is an example for reflection on the previous quote;<br />
<br />
<b>“Truly I tell you,</b> <b><u><i>UNLESS YOU CHANGE</i></u></b>.” That part of the quote seldom gets included.<br />
<br />
This 'child-like' state is often associated with the persona of saints, when they are described by observers, biographers and similar. It has also been associated with those considered simpletons who later proved not to be simpletons. It is a gift of the spirit, conferred upon the deserving. There are many gifts of the spirit, which are like the serendipitous, mysterious rules and laws. It is possible to get these rules and laws to act in your favor, by putting yourself in a position, where they are caused to react.<br />
<br />
We do not have to appear to be, or be, beaten down by the ravages of pedestrian desire and one of the most expedient and certain ways to get whatever you want, is to not want it. Two VERY IMPORTANT considerations, tasks, objectives; call them what you will, need to be addressed, in order for you to find yourself in the spiritual catbird seat. Firstly, put an end to all personal desires and secondly; still, or kill, the reactive mind. In this case the end is more important than the means. Guru Bawa once told me, <i>“get wisdom any way that you can. Steal it if you have to.”</i><br />
<br />
Both of these seem to be an industry similar to Hercules cleaning the Augean Stables. Let me illustrate that a bit. The stables housed over a thousand cattle and had not been cleaned in 30 years. If you think about it, it sounds ridiculous to begin with; that it hadn't been cleaned in 30 years but that is sometimes the way it is with myths. This is the 5<sup>th</sup> labor of Hercules and he was set to accomplish it in a single day. What did he do? He diverted two rivers and they washed out the stables lickety split. I don't think Peisander used that term as a descriptive but I shall, even though, 'lickety split' has an unsavory sound to it when applied to cleaning out stables (grin). It does sound a little like the task set to Alexander, concerning the Gordian Knot. He also had an expedient solution for it. One might harvest considerable fruit by applying similar thought processes to curtailing all personal desire and stilling the reactive mind.<br />
<br />
As for personal desires, another one of the remarkable, serendipitous rules and laws states that whatever is coming to you, whether you want it or not, is going to come anyway so; what is the use of chasing after anything that is yours already... even if it is not yet present? AND... if you've any hope of evading or canceling out undesirable circumstances coming your way, the ONLY possibility of that is to put it in the hands of the Supreme Mover who can do ANYTHING. His powers are LIMITELESS! LIMITLESS!!! There is NOTHING that God cannot accomplish in the wink of an eye. The Divine Being thinks whatever it is into being and... just like that... it exists. This Divine Being is RESIDENT WITHIN YOU!<br />
<br />
Do you see where I'm going with this? Spiritual teachers have, for ages, been advising us to put the whole of our life in the hands of the Supreme Being. Surely there is a practical side to this??? It's not just poetic whimsy AND... from what I have been able to glean and understand about ALL of these spiritual teachers is that... they ALL did exactly that. Apparently this is not Rocket Surgery. Emulation is not only the sincerest form of flattery. It can also be the smartest course of action, depending on whom you are emulating.<br />
<br />
I've watched people. go round and round about, trying to make spiritual progress. I've watched them join ashrams and make their way up the pecking order of whatever establishment they were operating in. I've watched them try to be Buddhists and Muslims, Hindus, Christians and especially New Agers. I've watched them operate according to the strict letter of the law and become unbearable pains in the ass and I have watched them shut off their gyroscopes and free flywheel it into a Floogie Bird flight, until they disappear in the usual manner of Floogie Birds. I've seen all manner of methods and techniques, both ad infinitum and ad nauseum. I've come away from the fray of it, with no more than The Greatest Commandment, as the sanest course of action. At least this is what works for me. I'm not talented or informed enough to follow the more complex paths. It is why I walked away from Hermetic and Occult modalities, though I still reference some of them when they prove useful.<br />
<br />
I don't know what the rest of you want. It took much longer than it should have for me to discover what I wanted, which might be now defined as not wanting anything OR wanting only one thing. It amounts to the same for me (in my mind). What I do know is that each of us has a limited period of residence in this particular go round and none of us know what the length of that is. I also know that you leave here with ONLY what you have become and whatever debts and bounties might have accrued to you, for a future exercise of Destiny, in the next go round. You don't take anything else, so... it would seem to me that EVERYTHING ELSE IS SECONDARY to that and worthy of only secondary fealty... if that. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength and with all your mind. The second part of it comes automatically with the first, at least it does for me.<br />

<br />
Finally... finally, I have found all the evidence that I have been relying on, in one place; <a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/political/everything-you-need-know-about-trump-were-afraid-admit-you-wondered">courtesy of Tyler Durden</a>. I've had to explain myself to people more often than I wanted to. So much so as to refuse to do so anymore. If you can't read the litany of evidence on the circling wind... you are more likely to get caught up in the grasp of the cyclone, rather than enjoy the power and spectacle from a distance.<br />
<br />
I'd say that most people don't know the difference between a cyclone or a tornado. Certainly a cyclone can be much bigger. Basically, you get a tornado when a cold front and a warm front come together and a cyclone wherever you get air circling around a cold front. These conditions don't always promote a powerful spinning madness. Sometimes you just get a severe thunderstorm.<br />
<br />
So it is in political climates, when you get cold hearted reptiles spinning around an even colder theater of enterprise, you're going to get a cyclonic weather condition, called Orange Man Set-off. Perhaps you have invisible angels, wafting upon the warm air of the Almighty's love in their passing ...and they encounter a Cold Front of Sumbitches, led by a Sexual Degenerate with Sanpaku Eyes. You are going to get a tornado.<br />
<br />
<br />
Cyclones, Hurricanes and Typhoons are basically the same thing. Perhaps the reason they get the weather wrong so much is that they don't fully understand all the subtleties of it. They don't have THE BIG PICTURE. Political storms are similar in this respect. Our present political storm is like that; wheels within wheels. But... like John Milton (Al Pacino) in The Devil's Advocate said, “Don't get too cocky my boy. No matter how good you are don't ever let them see you coming. That's the gaffe my friend.” This is what President Trump is doing.<br />
<br />
As the 'joined at the hip of evil' Sumbitches, do their Armageddon Macarena, all their attention is focused on the orchestrated farce of their theatrics... guided by the protocol breaking, sexual degenerate with Purse Mouth Syndrome. They seem to have forgotten all about the IG Report on the Fisa Warrants. I don't know if <a href="http://napolun.com/mirror/web2.airmail.net/napoleon/Napoleon_tactics.htm">you are familiar with some of Napoleon's tactics of war</a>. It seems to me that is what is presently in play. It's one of those 'reach-a rounds' that are not as pleasurable as is generally thought to be the case. Now... this in not something I would know about but... on the advice of experts (grin) I have concluded the pleasure is all with the reach-a rounder.<br />
<br />
It appears that the long awaited report (with attendant recommendations for action followups) includes all the usual suspects AND a former president and his Secretary of State. Oh my... Oh my...<br />
<br />
<br />
Given that there are some actions that President Trump cannot 'directly' bring about, he has to play one of those Chance/Strategy games, where you have a tall structure and you keep pulling out one piece after another, until... it collapses and the collapser loses. It's 4D legerdemain. More and more, I begin to suspect the intrusion of unseen hands and the presence of a presence undefined.<br />
<br />
The greatest problem in the world, besides ignorance, is selfishness. When you cannot- or do not want to- see the wider benefits of your every act, your field of vision narrows; eventually you are blinded if it continues to narrow. Many people look upon the possession of a selfish or generous nature as being a personal choice that could have come about in all manner of ways. The presence or absence of a moral compass could have a lot to do with it; bad parenting and bad mentoring also can be causes. Most assuredly, no matter what other causes or ancillary influences come into the press, Materialism is ALWAYS a major player.<br />
<br />
When you are guided by a selfish nature, there will ALWAYS be aspects of your life, critical aspects that you will not see. Your selfish nature will have occluded them. Some of what you miss can affect your survival, whether that be literal, or something like your reputation and standing in the world. For some reason, being selfish is never to a person's advantage over the long term. You miss important features and you render yourself vulnerable and exposed.<br />
<br />
More and more... it appears to me that an unseen hand is at work. This thrills and comforts me. Of course, I KNOW that an invisible hand is ALWAYS at work, in the known and unknown worlds, however far the reach of them extends BUT... even though I know this... I forget. Memory and the ability for remembering, are extraordinarily critical to Spiritual Realization and Spiritual Revelation. Your real self already knows everything. It just has to be contacted and provoked. Perhaps the contact is all the provocation that is needed.<br />
<br />
Every religious tradition has a element of constant prayer- constant remembrance. Each of them has a tenet whereby, at the approach of death, one has only to engage the discipline of remembering The Ineffable, or repeating the name or phrase of the celebration of the presence and salvation is automatic. I have found this to be present in Buddhism, with the Amitabha Buddha. I have found it in Hindu system with the Mahamantra and I have found it in the Christian Tradition also with, “pray without ceasing”. What many fail to realize, or simply do not know, is that there are entities dispatched at the critical moment to cause us to forget the practice. If you have been, at all, inconsistent or cavalier in your performance, of whichever process you employ, you may well forget; you might well forget.<br />
<br />
When you set out to trap anyone, you must have your priorities in order and also be on the side of the angels, unless, of course, your target(s) are doomed in their Karma. It is probably best to never set out to trap anyone (given how it can impact on your own Karma) but... such is life and especially such is life in certain periods of display. It is the divine who both traps and releases us at different times. It is why we pray, “lead us not into temptation”. It is why Lord Ganesha carries the two accouterments of binding and liberation with him.<br />
<br />
We have a number of phrases that have been in the common parlance for awhile. One of them refers to being hoisted on your own petard. As the other John Milton once said, <i>“Revenge, at first though sweet, Bitter ere long back on itself recoils.”</i><br />
<br />
SO... SO... it behooves us to spend some time of deep reflection upon our acts of malevolence toward others because, one way or another, it will come back on us. This applies as well to Schadenfreude. Thoughts can kill and have killed. The longer I live, the more impressed I am with The hand of God. The longer I live, the more impressed I am with the wisdom of possessing those features called, 'The Virtues' The world is incredibly deceptive. One could say it is entirely deceptive because nothing it tells you is true. It is always misleading and misdirecting. Here I mean to indicate ALL AREAS of deception, crimes of omission, as well as the crimes of commission. Then there is a whole field of prohibitions that have to do with a failure to render aid.<br />
<br />
Yes... I'm dancing all over the place here today but some things cannot be said outright. It is not possible. The corner around which they wait must be indicated, or the attention directed toward it... it must be hinted at and then one can only hope the point is made. We are coming up on a whirlwind of riffling events... a cyclone of bada bing... a tornado of sequences that will sometimes be moving faster than the eye can see, especially if the eye has been coerced to look in the wrong direction. It's all going to be coming around the mountain when it comes.<br />
<br />
Whatever the real nature and intention of this present president of the United States is, at this time, we are going to be witness to a grand spectacle of venality, duplicity, revenge and a scrambling mayhem after personal profit and vain ambitions, the like of which... the like of which, we have not seen in this lifetime. Never before has the lines between the combatants been so radically defined. Never has the animosity and rancor been so great. This is positively Shakespearean! I suggest you arrange your comestibles ahead of time. You are not going to want to move away from the performance once that has been set in motion before you.<br />

<br />
A couple or more of centuries after Jesus the Christ walked upon this Earth, there was a schism in the faith. This schism became so contentious that the Emperor Constantine was obliged to intrude himself into the controversy. This would come to be called the Council of Nicaea. Give or take, this took place in 325 AD. The reason for it was due to the rise of Arianism. Anyone who has studied the traditions of any of the long enduring religions has discovered what an entangled affair ALL OF THEM HAVE BECOME.<br />
<br />
We have Sunni and Shiite Muslims and it gets more and more complex as time passed. We've Mahayana and Hinayana Buddhists and it gets more and more complicated as time passed. We had... around the time of the Council of Nicaea, the Arian and the non-Arian, which I suppose I will call the 'traditional' following; given that Arius, after whom this system of thought is named; basically, the schism centered around an argument which, on one side, claimed that Christ was divine and co-equal with God (same thing as) and on the other hand, he was someone God created at some point for whatever his reasons were. What you have here is the dispute over Christ being Divine... or not.<br />
<br />
Regardless of any of the positions anyone might take about this that or the other thing, either Jesus the Christ was the son of God or... he wasn't. Of course he was and I will tell you why. We have had something like 2,000 years, over the course of which the entire world has been changed and the testimony of recorded history, of the lives of saints and miracles abundant, in many another case show us, gives evidence of Christ, as the living manifest expression of God in human form. This isn't even open to debate and if it is... please go round the corner somewhere and haggle with one another; don't come round here.<br />
<br />
Whenever priests and scholars get involved in what God is or is not, you are looking at a duplicitous and convoluted, round and round the Mulberry Bush, stifling ration of bullshit, from some location where the sun don't shine (please pardon my syntax). All of that ration is about, “SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!” Generally... churches and religions, are the outer concourse of doe see doe financial sucking it in and holding your breath. Are you with me so far?<br />
<br />
<br />
Every major religion, by this time, is an intricate vampire entity that... like government, is created to enslave the populace and bleed them dry.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now... Emperor Constantine... probably still a closet pagan at the time, but... also a skilled negotiator and not someone you want to mess with; otherwise he wouldn't have the title of Emperor, left this council gathering ...with the idea that it had been fixed and would have at least a refurbished 90 day warranty. I don't know if extended service contracts were available but... I digress. So... what followed was a lip service agreement that did one thing on the surface and something else below decks because there were powerful individuals on both sides of the 'me first, you later... maybe' Danse Economique.<br />
<br />
So... of course... this all got back to the Emperor and I'm guessing here, cause I don't know and neither do any of you... I'm guessing that they then went looking for an advocate with a 'heavy rep'. So it is that he, who would later be called Saint Anthony, was sought after and... that was no walk in the park to find the guy because this was back in the time of the pillar dwellers and people who shut themselves away from any contact with the corrupt side of human intercourse, of all kinds, at that time OR... ANY TIME FOR THAT MATTER.<br />
<br />
After many a roundelay of 'over hill and over dale', they found the (later to be called) redoubtable Saint Anthony and brought him into some larger venue of many a witness and Saint Anthony said, “I have seen him!” 'Him' being Jesus the Christ. You need to understand some things about Saint Anthony. He spent decades at a time in the performance of austerities and all manner of painful rejections of everything that might be constituted as a material pleasure. He was the real deal, apparently. He lived for a very long time as did St. Paul who passed while they were praying together. It's nice to have information like this on tap; isn't it??? This is the fruit of viscerally knowing that you do not know. As long as you don't know... God does know (within you) as long as you know; God does not. It doesn't get any simpler than this.<br />
<br />
So... Saint Anthony saying this... had a wide spread and long lasting impact upon the question of who and what Jesus the Christ is/was. Personally, I don't get into arguments about this or ANYTHING having to do with the nature or presence of God. Either you are celebrating the presence of God or you are celebrating the presence of someone else;<br />

<br />
I consider myself one of the most fortunate men on Earth because I do not just believe in God, I KNOW God is real and present; no ifs ands or buts about it. There is a comfort, beyond the bounds of human reason or any 'other' kind of awareness, that comes to one who has walked into the howling wilderness of the forever unknown and who has found that wilderness was only their own internal being and that once revealed it was a joy and a wonder to experience. In other words, there is no howling wilderness. There is only the fear of the unknown and for WHATEVER REASON, most everyone avoids this self inquiry. I do not. Job One... don't run from yourself because that is who you are going to encounter when you leave here. You are going to have yourself, exposed to yourself. You can COUNT ON THIS. It will happen and what will follow is your having to decide what you are willing to do next time you come back in the this dance of temporary embodiment.<br />
<br />
DON'T BE A FOOL!!! Honestly my friends, don't be foolish. ♫Your time is gonna come♫ You will have to face yourself and there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide in this regard. Why don't people get this? Okay... okay... self deceit... the mesmerizing hallucination of repurposed, refurbished illusions. It keeps on and it keeps on. You know this! I know this! Once again, IT IS WHAT IT IS. Come on humanity!!! Wake the fuck up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />
<br />
I know there are people who don't like me; I'm too self assured, too convinced that I know what I'm talking about. Here is something to consider----- God speaks to all of us BUT... only some of us hear God. That's right. Why would you think God is far away when God is your own true self to begin with??? You CANNOT BE DISHONEST WITH YOURSELF! Listen up people. I know that all of you don't like me. I can understand that, I really can. I am not everyone's cup of tea. I can be abrasive, impatient, pugnacious and what have you ...BUT... it is only because I care about you. I really do care about you, even those of you who do not like me because I KNOW (or at least God does) that we are all a common consciousness beneath the skin. We are all the same person. Sure... you came in here as an Aquarius from Montana, or a Pisces from Florida, or any other permutation of astrological, fixed perspectives, for the Karmic roundabout of a temporary life and we can't, by nature of our separation by planetary disposition, all agree BUT REMEMBER... REMEMBER... a wise person rules the stars.<br />
<br />
You do not have to be managed by your predispositions! You do not have to be ruled by the instinctive nature of your karmic nature. Truly... my friends. Listen up for a moment, I had my head handed to me with brutal efficiency by a monster who was large and determined. It did him no good and I have completely forgiven him because I know I chose this route as the most expedient. I chose this. It's over. After I left the less than tender care of his ministrations, I had six years of off again, on again, incarceration in life and death prisons and housing locations for the criminally insane. Why was I confined in the latter? Simple... I wasn't going to let anyone rape me. I was willing to respond in ANY MANNER, to make sure of that and so it goes. You got to stand up for yourself and if you do... Angels will appear on your behalf. I have had the truth of God's presence proven so many times that I cannot remember them all.<br />
<br />
<br />
My friends... time is short. You have no idea. It's getting closer. Go and introduce yourself to The Ineffable. Let God know you're here. Speak to the Divine Mother! Speak to God's agent here on Earth. Do you not know that the moment you speak to God, God IS LISTENING??? God ALWAYS hears you; ALWAYS!!! ALWAYS!!! Please... I'm not here to shout into the passing wind. I am here to echo your own conscience. Listen closely... you might be surprised.<br />

<b>(we are ushering in a new era at the blogs. There will <span style="font-size: 115%;">generally</span> be no links except at the end, other than the song of the day and Pocketnet. Then... then... if there are links they will be at the very end with a short bio on why it happens to be included. What is going on in the world has little to do with what is going on here, with me. You can find the news on your own and Pocketnet has got the widest selection of the most up to date and relevant items so... you don't need me for that and I don't need all the extra work that is wasted when people don't pay attention.)</b><br />
<br />
<br />
I sit and wonder a lot. I stand and wonder too. I wonder a great deal, no matter what position or posture I am in. I try to trace the origins of conditions as they presently exist. I make comparisons between living conditions now and at many another time. I take into consideration the intellectual and moral climate of cultures. I wonder about the Doctor Pangloss clones of today, who imagine that this is “the best of all possible worlds”. I even wonder about things like the merger of the words 'Pang' and 'loss'. Was Voltaire trying to say something? I'll attempt to reassure you at this time that I am not one to get buried in minutiae, or endless sidetracking digressions. As far as I'm concerned, there is one supreme and ineffable being and no other thing, known or unknown, seen or unseen worth thinking about or looking for.<br />
<br />
In a single year now, my world has been changed beyond recognition. It is pretty amazing what you can accomplish, if you set your heart and mind on it and it doesn't matter what your age is. The loss of flexibility is what dooms most of us. We harden and stratify as we age. We lose flexibility. We lose range of motion. We lose the desire for most everything except habitual repetition BUT... if that is not the case with you... all bets on the usual declines are off. Our perspective becomes fixed. If it is wrong and... MOST OF THEM ARE, then... your fixation on what is not real, intensifies.<br />
<br />
When I say most perspectives are wrong, I am seriously understating the matter. What I should have said is that all personal perspectives are in some degree of error. There is ONLY ONE PERSPECTIVE that is not in error and that is the perspective of the indwelling true self. It is OFTEN silent on the matter as well. The indwelling self knows that, in the manifest existence, change is the only constant. If change is all there is then there is NOTHING... in the long run, that you can see, or hear, or taste, or touch, or smell that you can depend on. The radiant energy of existence is likened to a serpent, it moves in sinuous twistings from side to side. It coils. There is much to ponder, here much to wonder about.<br />
<br />
NO MATTER WHAT you may think, there are only two directions you can go in; up or down. You might say that you can go to either side, or back and forth. With the former... ALL STRAIGHT LINES become circular. With the latter you are in stasis limbo. SO... The energy of your being is either MOVING OUT or MOVING IN. You can haggle about the terms I am using and whether 'in and out' would qualify as 'up and down'. Let's just put this all down as allegory. Of course, you can haggle about anything and some people do. I don't haggle and I don't argue. It is what it is. I would rather get to the heart, of the truth, of the matter, or nowhere at all. There is no Option B. You may have more than one option, I do not.<br />
<br />
The dynamic energy of our being; the sacred energy that exists as the life within us, gets routed in one of two directions; outward into the world, or inward and upward to planes of consciousness beyond the terrestrial. You are having sex and battling for survival and all else; the brutal fantasies of wealth, power and fame, OR you have turned your attention away from these things because they lead ONLY to death and redundancy. They are the process and procedure of an endless cycling routine of suffering, upon the rack of the ring of fire, karma bound and harnessed to the wheel of inevitable outcome... on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on. My friends... it does not have to be like this.<br />
<br />
So many of us deeply resent the loss of the pleasures of this plane. They are less than the rooting squalor of pigs in offal, by comparison to what waits beyond. The pigs know of nothing other than what exists at the end of their snouts. Some of them were once as you and I are now. Existence operates like an elevator and is similar to a spiral stairway but these are all analogies for something that can only be experienced, not described. Some things have to be taken on Faith. I will add that there are levels at which Reason can come very close. Pure Reason is a remarkable tool.<br />
<br />
If we don't have what is available, in seemingly endless quantity for some, we want it so bad our teeth hurt. If we have it on tap, for however long there is time left on the meter, it gets old. Then we get old and then... whatever we had is gone. All that remains is what we became and that is the arbiter of our next place of residence. Whatever you have, YOU WILL LOSE ...and depending on how you managed it and how you behaved, you will literally, up close and personal, see the results of that.<br />
<br />
With what we presently know we could not build things like Notre Dame and other similar structures today. Somehow we lost the capacity. There are some people now engaged in attempting to do this by reverting to the tools and methods employed back when. It doesn't make sense, does it? Here is why this is so... whatever the level of materialism is at any given time, that sets the tenor for intellectual accomplishment. Surely you are familiar with the term, 'dumbing down'? Take a look around. Do you see composers like Mozart, Beethoven, Bach and Brahms at work? No... you do not. Are we in a time of lyrical and inspired poetry and books the like of those once written by Melville, Poe, Stevenson, Twain, Hugo, Dumas (father and son)? No... you do not. Do you see paintings similar to Rembrandt, Da Vinci, Goya, Monet, Manet or similar? No... you do not. Do you see the sorts of galvanizing architecture of previous times? No... you do not. Are there illumined philosophers to be found among the atheists, secular humanists and dirtbag gender and identity pundits? No... you do not.<br />
<br />
Materialism is responsible for all this paucity and depravity. Now depravity and perversity are being CELEBRATED! Operational Insanity has become an actual form of government. Witness Kalifornia. People by droves, in an uncountable swarm; a ravening mob of berserker appetites, are loosed upon the glittering marketplaces of chattels and consumables. They are now killing people over chicken sandwiches. An angry revolution is brewing among the terminally disappointed. They don't know where they're going and they don't know what they want. All they know is that they are terribly angry. The whole world is an ongoing expression of bad parenting.<br />
<br />
<br />
So far... this all adds up to an ominous and depressing portrait, with Hell hammering at the gates of the material plane. It has already broken through in places. What to do... what to do.<br />
<br />
<br />
There is good news and it all comes down to the Purpose of Demonstration. Everything taking place is being directed to orchestrated ends for the purpose of demonstration. Are you in need of a lesson? In that case, simply continue along as you have been. Your lesson will be along at some point; 'objects in the mirror are closer than they appear'. Perhaps you are not in need of a lesson, or you learn your lessons on the way, as needed, as they pertain to course adjustments. AT NO TIME has there ever been a time when the Supreme Master of all Planes is not fully at the controls. That supreme master is resident within you at this very moment and YOU CAN MAKE CONTACT. You have ONLY to want it more than anything else. Let this urge consume you. Pray without ceasing. Time and time and time again, remind yourself and pull your attention back to this single pressing need. “Success is speedy for the energetic.”<br />
<br />
Never before has the opportunity been as great as it is now. EIGHT BILLION PEOPLE ARE HERE!!! A drama is unfolding that is unique in recorded history. The Great Summing up is at hand. THIS IS WHY THE DISTRACTIONS ARE SO GREAT! Put down that cellphone and step away. Go within. Your true self awaits. Your true self is beyond Space, Time and Causation. It is IMMUNE to every danger of every kind.<br />
<br />
FEAR and APPETITE. Dismiss the one and restrain the other. All fear is based on a dance of shadows. NONE OF IT IS REAL. Only your belief in it grants substance to the illusory presence of what you fear. We are the authors of whatever manifests. NONE OF IT IS REAL! NONE OF IT IS REAL! It is a simple trick of the mind. Pivot your attention. Gnothi Seauton.<br />

<br />
At this given moment in the course of our brief history, in this brief incarnation of temporary residence, for the purpose of appetite, desire, some kind of ambition... but in all cases, as an opportunity to pay the bill for previous appetites, desires and ambitions, or to experience new ones, we are present in a dreamscape. This dreamscape is woven like a web, or a tapestry. It is accordion like and it unravels like a scroll, over a particular reach of time. Just like a web, this dreamscape vibrates and attracts the attention of other entities moving along the web. The key term here is vibration. This is how like attracts like and that out-plays as experiences, with other people, interacting with the residents of every realm, invisible life forms and forces as well as the creations of Lady Nature; be they natural... like forest and mountains and seashore, or unnatural, like cities and towns. There are implements of technology that move between the natural and unnatural, or only within the parameters of one.<br />
<br />
There are dividing lines that exist in the dreamscape and they are of many different types. There are seasons in Nature and there are larger seasons that are called ages and they each have their measured reach. Characters appear to play particular roles and the kind of dramas they take part in can be significantly antithetical, or contradistinctive from what precedes and what follows each of them. Ergo you get your 'clash of civilizations' and cultures, lifestyles and what have you. Certain episodes of interaction appear in early portions of the age, or culture, or whathaveyou and certain episodes appear in the latter stage. This can vary widely.<br />
<br />
Surely you are seeing the sad results of bad parenting in these times. There is a rule in life that says, if you do not employ discipline on yourself and your offspring... bad results are certain. This is because a lack of discipline leads to a culture of excess. It behooves any thinking person to reflect on this feature of our times. A certain kind of persona has forced its zombies forward in the drama. They have created an army of the reckless, demanding and terribly uninformed. They have hijacked the educational systems and are programming those for whom real education was an afterthought (if at all) and have loosed them upon the rest of us.<br />
<br />
This period of history is a bump in the road. Astrologers and metaphysicians call it a cusp period. Since it is a demarcation line between two ages that last for 2200 years, the cusp period runs around 200 years; before you are fully into the next age. A considerable amount of upheaval and chaos occurs as the archetypes and infrastructure morph into their next representative state of being. We're near the end point of this cusp and once that's gone, so will all of these creatures be gone and where they may physically remain, their influence will be nil. We just have to be patient.<br />
<br />
It is a COMMON CIRCUMSTANCE in every cusp period for the appearance of revolutionary actors. Some amount of these are highly desirable contributors to new ways of thinking and living. Others are rampaging nihilists who, having found no (and not having looked) meaning in their own lives, have declared there is none elsewhere either, or have declared that certain awful transitions must take place to manifest a system where they are, finally, all equal and the rest of us are not.<br />
<br />
All too few of us possess the capacity for self introspection and higher reasoning faculties. All too few of us possess that impartial objectivity that makes an understanding of deeper issues possible. The majority of us are blown hither and yon by the winds of appetite and the fires of desire. These are easily convinced of all manner of absurdities, as can be clearly seen by those possessing the qualities previously mentioned.<br />
<br />
Off stage and hidden from the immediate line of sight, are those who play upon atavistic fears and desires of the people, most especially, they prey upon the minds of the disenfranchised, or those who've not accumulated what they wanted in life, either through an insufficiency of intelligence or drive, or imagination. They stoke the darker passions of these people, inflaming prejudices and telling lies, about all that they declare has been stolen from them, denied them, or not permitted for them and this includes not only objects and station in life but also... kinds of behavior. These manipulators control the avenues by which information is disseminated. They control the industries of entertainment, where certain lifestyles are lauded or promoted and others are decidedly not. They control the mediums through which Art is marketed and this gives them authority to determine what is... and what is not... Art.<br />
<br />
Ultimately, in a relative sense, this confers a power upon these manipulators to define what is real and what is not real; what is desirable and what is undesirable, what is right and what is wrong, who should be elevated and who diminished... honored or dishonored. It CAN SEEM as if they are firmly in the driver's seat and little can be done about it. One is advised that they must conform to the pleasure of the Overlord, who dictates the acceptable and unacceptable protocols of life. This is, like everything is, only temporary. It is... in the common vernacular, BULLSHIT.<br />
<br />
These manipulators and profiteers are, empowered in their season, for only the length of that season. This is why they are such busy little bees of the moment. They know that their sell by date is soon to pass. They know that one is coming who is going to set aright all that they have knocked and encouraged to go out of kilter. A time is coming, when the poisonous cloud of confusion and stupidity, shall be dispersed. This will, most definitely, result in an awakening. The people will rub the residue of dream dust from their eyes and ask... “What happened?” “Where was I?” Their eyes, having been opened, will clearly see who it was that ensorcelled and bewitched them. In that short moment there will be a rush of air, trailing in the passage of the manipulators, fleeing for the hills and the following rage of those now released from their stupor.<br />
<br />
It's just a bump in the road my friends. The previous century and more, has been a Grand Guignol of horrific murders and pillaging, the like of which had never been previously seen. Even in the times of Tamerlane and the Khans's, it did not reach anything like the scale of what has most recently passed. Now... the befuddlement and somnambulism are destined to fade like the morning dew upon the grass because another sun, a spiritual sun, is set to shine upon the human heart and mind and all things are to be made Gnu.<br />
<br />
I have been waiting... anticipating... for most of the extent of my life for this time to come upon us. I've been mostly awake. At first I had the initial problems of running into the sleepers, who passed on all sides, as well as the perception disability that my comestibles conferred upon me. I needed to slow down. It took longer than it should have for the toreador aspect to come forth. It's been fair smooth sailing since.<br />
<br />
Some changes take a very long time. The process is beyond the comprehension of most; like the rising and falling of a mountain... antediluvian... primordial changes. Interestingly, the changes in us, from our first inception, to the realization of Godhead, occurs over an even greater spread of time. It is like the brief puffs of air in every breath, as if they were each a lifetime and the totality of all of the breaths in a lifetime of average length, being the stretch from inception to realization. As hard as it may be to believe, in some cases it is more than that, even much more than that.<br />
<br />
The mysterious workings of the cosmos take place over an unimaginable stretch of time and the whole of a cycle, is no more than a single breathing out and in of the divine. That is creation... an out breathing, followed by an inhale with a pause between at either end. The divine expresses outward into everything and then gathers itself all up again. No mind can grasp this and our thousands upon thousands of incarnations amount to nothing at all. Until realization occurs it is no more than a dog chasing its tail. How many ever tumbled to one of the last things the Lord Buddha said, “I will return in 500 years.” Go ahead... do the math.<br />
<br />
When you think about the enormous periods of time and the scrabbling of appetites all along the way. There are the massive stomachs of the dinosaurs and the progression until now and still.... appetite...desire and ambition. Once it may have been a tearing, rending and chewing, a panting pursuit after sexual union, the scrimmaging of armed men and who would be king. Only the objects and methods of performance have changed. The nature and objectives of the passions have not.<br />
<br />
Now we observe the fury of literal insanities, seeking a preeminence over a competing madness... bones in the nose to studded rings in the nose, shaggy manes to purple hair... perhaps some changes in the image and quality of the tattoos but... savages none the less. One of them obvious and apparent and the other disguised by a thin veneer of pretended civilization. Thank God for the hidden hand of inspired and divine reason that here and there appears.<br />
<br />
He/She (heh heh- preferred pronouns; really ought to be 'it' and 'that') finally achieves when they abandon the field of play and walk away from every promise and lie, walk away from every object of desire and from desire itself... walk away in one's own variant of Lao Tzu on the water buffalo... walk away to that sheltered glade at Cold Creek, to sleep the dreamless sleep of the realized and to purify the ears. To hear or see no more of the corruptions of the euphemistically civilized. Ah... to be free of all this. Still... one in Jivanmukti Duty must serve on the way. Let the lies and perversions fall where they may and hear and see them not at all... simply smiling, in the childlike delight, of seeing God face to face in everyone you meet.<br />

Dog Poet Transmitting.......<br />
<br />
It's all calm on every front here. Then I go out into the wide world, as seen from my various internet perches and all is not calm on almost any front. I walk away from the computer, troubled by the things I have seen... knowing it is all out of my hands. The only thing I have any possibility of influence over is me. Then... there is the consideration that there is no me. All there is a a temporary amalgam of persona brought together by the aggregate of what I've been through and the product of that astrological map that set in place the predispositions and inclinations I brought from the last go rounds. The eternally existing me is like the white screen that a film is projected on. Each lifetime is a film that begins and ends and the white screen is always there in the interim, unaffected by any of the movies that were screened on it.<br />
<br />
None of the troublesome conditions are anywhere in the house as I walk through it. None of these conditions are outside my door, or down the street, in the nearby stores or the faraway stores; where they are is in my head. I saw evidence of them. I heard about them and the magic manifestation machine in my head, the subconscious factory below decks, brought an experience of each of them into my thoughts. If I don't personally attach myself to any of these situations or conditions, there's no context for interaction between me and whatever facsimile of something my mind created, as representative of whatever it is or was. The facsimile, of course, is a subjective and seriously incomplete projection on the screen of the mind.<br />
<br />
It seems like the only important consideration is; what's behind the mind and... what is behind that and what, if anything, is behind that? The heart has similar considerations. It generates feelings that have to do with sensory reports. We're talking about the heart as a creative force that makes identifiers for whatever comes up, whatever is encountered or experienced. We call it something, we label it as good or bad and it gets an emotional qualifier that is associated with it and... the heart moves on to the next thing... or it doesn't. There are all sorts of potential results... limitless prospects. Let's say a particular heart's most recent encounter involved a bullet passing through it. This would involve it moving on in a more dramatic fashion than what it had previously been used to running into. Wow, Visible, that was abrupt (grin).<br />
<br />
The near totality of my life has been a search for The Divine Being. It stands to reason that if you persist in anything, you're going to either get very competent at it, or eventually succeed in the acquisition of it. There are the alternatives that... you'll never get more than basically competent because you lack, 'the gene' and also that you won't get whatever it was, because; it is exceedingly rare and the competition for it fierce, it turned out to be non existent, or... you changed your mind because you changed along the way.<br />
<br />
I'm not going to go too deeply into my struggles, beyond a few thoughts, concerning terrain and degree of difficulty. From the time I could walk, I was used as a handball and a punching dummy. This could have had a lot to do with the intensity of my quest from the inception. I suspect I asked for this 'direct route', prior to entry. Regardless of the pain and attendant psychological torment, it toughened me to a serious degree and also resulted in my becoming a redoubtable martial artist and that stood me in good stead, considering the landscape I was compelled to traverse to this point.<br />
<br />
My search for the ineffable also resulted in countless encounters with The Truth behind appearances; caused me to not trust appearances and to delve ever deeper and deeper into the mix after essence and substance. I learned the difference between 'essential' and 'substantive'.<br />
<br />
In the beginning, I became quite a pedant and pseudo-intellectual. That can happen when you are a teenager and read too many philosophical discourses and all things dense and convoluted. That, thankfully, did not last long. LSD came into the picture and I learned many, many lifetimes worth of what I consider worth knowing, in a very short space of time ...and also led me to a fundamental conviction that I DO NOT KNOW. If I know, then I close the door on divine knowing. If I do not know- viscerally- and with the certitude of unshakable conviction, that which does know, can know within my consciousness, for so long as I need to know it.<br />
<br />
I encountered Eastern Thought and hardly ever looked back at Western Perspective again. Both of these are viable schools of thought. Some do well with both. For me, Eastern Thought rang my bells, especially since all western though is a product and extension of Eastern Thought anyway. Then I had a life changing Kundalini Rising and that led to my 'fixation of the volatile' but it took a long time.<br />
<br />
Life did not ease up until later in the game. Some of it was due to the 'degree of difficulty' chosen. The more severe that is, the greater the overall reward. There are also external examples in terms of environment. Real spiritual progress can be/is severely hampered by however intense the levels of materialism are. Suffice to say, it doesn't get much more intense than this and if it does, it's right up ahead. Then... like the end of a seemingly endless cloud cover, The Sun broke through and it has gotten finer and easier and all round more tolerable than ever I had begun to think it might (nice sentence structure, Visible). That sentence reminds me of something Les Paul once said to Chet Atkins. Both of them were guitar masters and they did a lot of recording together. On one project they were listening back and Chet said to Les. “There's some mistakes in there, Les.” Les replied, “Leave em in, let em know we're human.” If you've not listened to these two maestros together and you have enough musical sense to recognize and appreciate excellence, give em a listen.<br />
<br />
I took more chemicals than most and I'm neither recommending this or apologizing for it. That's my business, no one else's. I was in a hurry. I was reckless and caused myself a great deal of pain that I could have otherwise avoided BUT... as it turned out, the ineffable appreciated the passion in the gesture. A point came when I put it all aside and that portion of The Work which requires this began.<br />
<br />
I found what I was looking for. By now I know it is authentic. To say that it cost everything would not be hyperbole but... EVERYTHING IS NOTHING by comparison. Scripture talks about giving up the chase after all manner of worldly objectives and how it gets added unto later. I've small concern about that. I'm going to try to explain what this means now, by using a medium that has ALWAYS AND INFALIABLY fallen short of the task ...but I think I can leave a good indicator.<br />
<br />
Imagine that there is an emptiness within (as, in fact, there is) and... as one can easily observe in life, ANYWHERE that there are people who are looking to fill or satiate that emptiness with everything under the sun. Imagine also (though you do not have to imagine) that NOTHING external to a person will satisfy this internal hunger. The entire Purpose of Demonstration thing about existence is ALL about this. Imagine that the cure for the emptiness is already in place BUT... it has not been located or identified yet. Consider that NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, you WILL NOT find it on your own and there is good reason for this. Here is a bit of scripture in respect of that; “For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.” (For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus.)<br />
<br />
<br />
You can find your way to the door but after that...<br />
<br />
<br />
For years, my conversations and appeals were, for the most part, one sided and the only exceptions were in rarefied states and in extremity. Then 'the voice' came to me and said, “I'm here now.” This was only about 8 years ago. What has followed since has been a increasingly clarity, as if the fine tuning dial has come into more precise position and the frequency of contact has, incrementally, increased.<br />
<br />
Imagine that you find something that will remain undefined and it fills up every crevice and corner of that emptiness, in such a way that NOTHING has ever previously done. Attendant with it is an assurance, a kind of confidence that also cannot be defined or described. A certitude arises that cannot be impacted upon by any event or challenge. If you had nothing else, the sense of it is... that's okay. What is needed appears of its own. All of the problems of life and all of its uncertainties melt away. They have no place to be in residence. This... inexplicable thing, automatically displaces all negative concerns.<br />
<br />
This is as close as I have come to putting the sense and feeling of it into expression and it falls remarkably short of the reality of it. I hesitate to post this when it is nowhere close to the reality but, it is what it is.<br />

Dog Poet Transmitting.......<br />
<br />
Fashion and the entertainment business are linked at so many levels there is no reason to list them. If you need context to get this, you won't understand it when it is presented to you. The fashion industry is controlled by alt.sex practitioners. The fashion industry is the place where <a href="https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=high+fashion+ridiculous&qpvt=high+fashion+ridiculous">clothes are designed by men who hate women</a>. The entertainment business is run by men who have sex with men. This should explain everything you don't presently understand about why entertainment, fashion and art now look like they are being filmed, or constructed, in a funhouse mirror. A certain group of people are <a href="https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2008-dec-19-oe-stein19-story.html">provably, factually, in control of the entertainment business</a> and these people are more than twice as likely to be alt.sex <a href="https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=88701">than any other demographic</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
They are the highest concentration of atheists.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is true and <a href="https://holocaustdeprogrammingcourse.com/">all the information is right there</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is true <a href="http://lesvisible.net/DOCS/MastersOfDeception.pdf">and the information is all there</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is true and <a href="https://rense.com/general77/bols.htm">you can exhaustively research this to prove it so</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is true and <a href="https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2009/09/19/the-plot-against-art-part-1/">has been painstakingly delineated for anyone to ponder</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
They are <a href="http://www.finalcall.com/docs/Jews_in_porn_abrams.pdf">also in control of the pornography industry</a> and all related areas of commerce. There are many theories out there as to why this group of people happen to be deviant in their sexual practices. The arguments go back and forth among those inclined to argue. I am not a member of that group which argues. I don't argue. I state (take it or leave it) and here I will state why it is that this group engages in the sexual behavior they engage in. It is due to the influence of the maternal side of their family unit.<br />
<br />
Here is <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/parenting-son-princess-halloween-costume_n_5db72b2fe4b05df62ec383b7">an example of that influence by the maternal side</a>. I don't know the religious background of this person and I purposely chose it to give evidence that this kind of 'child molding abuse' can be performed by anyone. All that is required is for you to be mentally ill. It doesn't matter what religion or race you are. It's also true that some groups do it more than others.<br />
<br />
You can argue about the content of what's been said so far. There are two main reasons why you might. One reason is that you haven't studied it and have no REAL information. The other is that you are a member of that group. There are other possibilities why you would object to what's said here but they can each be traced back to one of these two reasons.<br />
<br />
I don't care for this plane of existence but I am here. However, I am of proactive inclination, so I am working on that and... near a solution for it, which is to be able to be here and not here at the same time. As a matter of fact, I am now able to slip in and out of one into the other for brief periods of time. I can't stay in that state permanently yet because it isn't something anyone can accomplish on their own. You have to be ALLOWED to do that. You have to be... almost led by the hand, by another, for that to become a constant for you. At this point I would like to say that HEAVEN BEGINS WHERE YOUR FEET TOUCH THE EARTH.<br />
<br />
What is my point here, with all these disparate but connected REALITIES? My point is that I did not want to believe what my lying eyes brought to my attention but I had no choice. As has been said many ways by many people; “it is what it is”. I know why this is all as it is. I understand the influences, dispositions and inclinations that made it all what it is but I've gone into depth about it so many times that I just don't want to do it anymore and I suspect that the reason I am doing it today (to a certain degree) is because this is the last time I want to talk about it. In a short period of time, sooner than one might think, a certain transformation is going to come upon the human mind. It is going to impact differently on different states of awareness. Depending on your level of present awareness and the distance between you and the awareness that is going to descend, on that depends the severity it is going to come upon you with.<br />
<br />
No one is going to be able to argue with or negotiate with this awareness. You either concede to its superior power, or it is going to be visited upon you in ways you are NOT GOING TO ENJOY. How do I come by this knowledge? It is what I have been told. Of course, anyone can dispute the authenticity of what I've been told. Anyone can dispute the existence of the source of this knowledge. That's neither here nor there for me. I had only to be convinced myself. Whatever anyone may think of that, it has no importance to me whatsoever. It is as if I walked into a room and saw someone sitting there and I had an exchange with the resident of the room. Then I left the room and mentioned the conversation and the experience to others and certain individuals, who had not been in that room, nor privy to the information that was discussed, have decided to disagree with what I heard or experienced. I had an experience. They did not have the experience, so, who am I going to believe?<br />
<br />
Of course I may have been lied to. My response to that is, 'time will tell and we shall see'. Until that plays out, everyone is going to go on doing what they do. The same applies to me. I'm going to go on doing what I'm doing, except... perhaps... with an even far greater determination and consistency. I accept NOTHING until I have proven it to be so, according to my methods of inquiry and analysis and this is the case with everything I have come to believe or disbelieve over the course of time.<br />
<br />
The present state of existence is one of intense material presence. We are surrounded by the products of matter, shaped in the foundry of the human subconscious and brought forth into form through the Shake 'n Bake process. The speed at which product is now coming from the foundry to the shelves of commercial enterprises is incredibly swift. What is lost in this is that the whole of it is SPIRITUAL, not MATERIAL. The material angle is the appearance via the senses and because change is the cornerstone of existence and due to that, all appearances are temporary, things come and go and none of it remains... except for the spiritual aspect. That does not come and go and that does not change.<br />
<br />
Let me take the pending arrival of certain material change a step further. The whole of what we call, culture and social order, civilization and our material environment, moves like sequences in a film. The film begins and eventually the film ends. In between we have plot development and the characters who perform in the plot. We have drama... tragedy... comedy; depending on one's experience and perspective. We have denouement, anti-climax and climax. We have character development (hopefully of a positive kind). Life is a movie but... perhaps more accurately, a dream. Nearly everyone here is dreaming and that dream, depending on the dreamer, can... like sleep, be light or very, very deep.<br />
<br />
In the dream of life it usually takes trauma for one to awaken; or a nightmare? Life... this life movie is moving, inexorably toward nightmare. This is simply the logical outcome of material culture in which the residents, devoted to that culture, go slowly at first and then ever more rapidly... insane. If you are not seeing or hearing elements of this at this very time, you have willfully shut up your eyes and ears. If a train is speeding toward you and you are standing on the tracks, closing your eyes will not cause the train to miss you. Mr. Apocalypse is the conductor on that train.<br />
<br />
I have NO SOLUTION to the conditions brought about by the people mentioned in the article. It is what it is. However, the forces that rule manifest existence; not the forces that appear to but the forces who do rule manifest existence, they have a solution.<br />
<br />
<br />
Not everyone who reads this article will study what is contained in the links. On the one hand, many who read here already know these things. Then there are those who do not want to know because with knowledge comes responsibility. Not all of us have been able to put our lives in such a place that we are no longer vulnerable to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/florida-principal-who-wouldn-t-call-holocaust-factual-event-fired-n1074471">those who would harm us by costing us our jobs</a>, or threatening us on any variety of levels. You have my sympathy. I have no hostages to fortune. I also do not have many of what some would call the benefits of these times in this culture but... I don't want any of them either.<br />
<br />
Let me riddle you something. Let's say there are those who have everything that material comfort and entertainment can provide but they are not able to fully enjoy any of it, due to a power that is resident within them and whose influence THEY CANNOT ESCAPE. Then let us say there are those who have none of these things but... that same power is resident in them as well, only it their case, it floods them with bliss and joy and makes whatever they do or experience a wonderful event. Who of these two groups is the better off? Especially since this interior power can also provide or remove anything there is to be had in life, effortlessly. Every single one of us has access to the good offices of this power but very few of us take advantage of it.<br />
<br />
I am not the one who is going to hold certain people accountable for their acts but I do know that they are going to be held accountable. I'll also be held accountable and I am more than passing fine with that. It's always puzzled me how people go through their whole life without giving any serious thought to what comes after. Then... I suspect they find out anyway. One can be an atheist but... whether one is or is not, has no bearing on whether God is real or not. Pascal's Wager was about that, in it's own fashion, though... 'enlightened modern thinkers' <a href="https://charltonteaching.blogspot.com/2011/12/why-pascals-wager-failed-for-me.html">consider it rubbish</a>.<br />

<br />
I'm going to start this off with an anecdote. It was a real teaching moment for me and left me feeling pretty good about myself. When I left the Big Island of Hawaii a few years ago, I wasn't in the right headspace, I guess that's what it was, to sell my car. I had met this fellow, Charlie Abel at the weekend market up in my neighborhood, about 10-12 miles out of Hilo. I used to go there every weekend for papayas and vegetables. Charlie sold motor oil and also did some amount of mechanical work and I had hired him to do something minor to my car. It worked out that I left the car with him and he was going to sell it for me. I left him my email and off I went.<br />
<br />
Time passed and I never heard from him. I figured, '<i>well... I guess something or other happened</i>' and I put it out of my thoughts. It's been around 4 years now since that happened and last night I was communicating with my friend Issac Shapiro who lives in Australia. We were friends on Maui when I lived there. We parted company at some point and (I see this story is getting a tad over involved... ah... so what?) Zac (short for Issac- grin) went and married the heir to the Otis Elevator fortune. I attended the wedding; talk about a big time extravaganza... heh heh.<br />
<br />
As relationships go in this day and age, the marriage only lasted a few years and during that time and following that time, Zac had had <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._W._L._Poonja">something to do Papaji</a> who was... how do I put this? He was a tad eccentric. The story I heard and I can't verify this tale but the source was fairly unimpeachable... the story I heard was that he knew he was about to pass on, so he initiated a half a dozen or so (could be more) of his student as gurus. That is not the interesting part. The interesting part is that after he did this, he told this source that he did it as a joke to see what would happen. Like I said, he was a tad eccentric. As it so happens, in my view, some of those students/followers proved to be full on opportunists and all about the money and the profile. I know this is not true about Zac and that is the only reason I tell this story because... otherwise, it would have gone into this vault I have; a vault of events and goings on from the past, that are best left in the vault. I suspect we've all got a vault or... we should have. Zac actually helps people.<br />
<br />
Zac has matriculated into a spiritual teacher and he travels to Europe and other places where he has followers. I met up with him in Munich about ten years ago.<br />
<br />
So... not likely to make a long story short at this point. Anyway, I'm engaged in this back and forth with Zac about my music, since he had really appreciated the song I sent him over the weekend and it was decided I would send him a selection from the albums, which led to a discussion about movies since the flash drive was 16 gigs and the music only came to 540 megs of mp3's (which is still about a hundred songs) and we were going back and forth on that, as to whether he had seen this movie, or that series AND OUT OF NOWHERE, the left hand side of the page changes and it is a list of messages from as far back as 2016 that I NEVER GOT! Several of them were comments that would have been important at the time and one of them was from Charlie Abel, circa 2016, telling me that he hadn't been able to sell the car for the price it was worth, which would have been between $600-$800 and he'd let it go to a young student for $250.00 and he needed an address so that he could send me the money. Wow!<br />
<br />
I spent some time last night responding to various messages and one of the responses was to Charlie, to let him know I finally got his message and in case he still had that money and was inclined to send it. None of this is the primary issue that has caused me to tell this story in the first place. One of the key features is this; I'd given Charlie my email and that was how I expected to hear from him. It turned out that he found me on Facebook and messaged me there and this message went into some internet bardo and sat there.<br />
<br />
Time passed while I was in Corning, California and then I traveled to the East Coast to stay with my friend in Ocean City, New Jersey. The weather coming off the ocean in the winter is pretty fierce and in the summer it is a madhouse, with families going up and down the sidewalk, some of them have massive carts filled with umbrellas, coolers, boogie and surf boards, beach chairs, tables, tents and you name it, they probably put it on these huge carts, or in these super large wagons. I was stunned at the amount of items people felt were necessary for their beach experience. Try to imagine what I am talking about, volume wise and then, double it, triple it.<br />
<br />
All day long they would go by the house and in the evening they'd head back the way they came. It was impressive, this march of material excess. There was a lot of living that had to be shoehorned into the week or two they had apportioned for that year's beach visit. Ocean City is not cheap. The houses rent for around $2500.00 a week and it goes up from there. There are some houses there that rent for $5000- S10,000. a week and more. Certain realtors and landlords are making a fortune over that time span from May 30 to Labor Day. The rent for a small 8' to 10' by 16' to 20' space, to have a shop on the boardwalk, will run you around $80,000.<br />
<br />
Ocean City is an unusual place. It is one of the premier family resorts on the East Coast. No alcohol is sold or served on the island (it is a island), except for (drum roll) The American Legion. So... right where one enters the bridge to OC, there is a humongous liquor store, with at least half a dozen cashier lanes and... in season... it can get a tad (understatement alert!) crowded. I used to crack up, watching people's shopping carts go by. Some of them contained hundreds of dollars worth of booze.<br />
<br />
Rarely, I would take a walk on the boardwalk. I'm guessing you've all been in a beach town at some point in your lives, so you know the tawdry and tasteless array of crap for sale. You can get one scoop ice cream in a cone for $5.00. Everything is very overpriced!<br />
<br />
The back and forth clatter on the sidewalk, in front of the house, wore on me over the course of that single season I spent there. I did see some very funny things, like a never ending procession of hundreds, thousands of Cellphone addicts, thumbhumping their units. One time I saw 3 teenage girls go by on bicycles at around 30 miles an hour, thumbing away on their cellphones, with no hands on the handlebars. I watched them shoot through an intersection without looking; truly an impressive display of stupidity.<br />
<br />
We'd walk the dog in the evening and perambulate past the largest collection of Audi's and Volvo's, with a goodly amount of Honda Odysseys and the occasional Bentley Maybach or classic T-Bird. Poor people don't come to Ocean City. The middle class doesn't come to Ocean City, though there are probably a few. The houses are ramshackle affairs, with the cheapest of fixtures and amenities. Every few years they tear them down and build another.<br />
<br />
I told my friend, “I can't take this place long term. Let's go west.” That suggestion met with approval and so I set out , guided by the indwelling (that is a story in itself) and shortly thereafter, we were in The West... balmy year round temperature, for these less than youthful bones. Safe and serene it is and half the year, nearly everyone up and down the street and around the corner, goes home to Canada (they have to spend half the year there to maintain their heath care.) so... there's no one here.<br />
<br />
Earlier in this posting which, at a certain point, took off like a runaway horse, I was talking about a car left with a fellow on The Big Island, in Hawaii. There's a little more backstory required here in order to provide a complete picture. I'd been away from America for 15 years. A lot can happen in that time. A reader that I knew from the blogs, offered me a place to stay while I got myself oriented. I'm one of those people that moves very quickly when I think I have to, so... in a little over a week, I had a place to stay, a car and that was that. I knew a number of people there from my writings on the internet. I stayed on the Big Island for a year.<br />
<br />
There was one group of people that I saw every month during a film club get together. Then there was a fellow named Robert, who had worked in Hollywood as a scene builder for the movies. He used to come by at least once a week, most of the time it was more. I'd provide a movie and some small amenities and we would talk about God. At one point he brought over this martial artist named David (from Las Vegas) with an, allegedly, natural, snow white eyebrow, who came and went for a month or two. We all got on well. So... I never expected David to come up to me from the side one afternoon and... without warning, hit me so hard that he fractured my jaw. The attending doctor who repaired it said it was the worst break he had ever seen.<br />
<br />
The attack had been arranged for some time. The police refused to investigate and got ever more pissed at me for inquiring. I was unable to move in any direction. I later found out it had been set up by Israelis who wanted me taken out. The doctor said I was lucky not to have died. Of all the people I knew there, one fellow, Kelly, helped me out as I went through the process of leaving. Since I left I have not heard from a single person there and that is quite a number of people and that has NEVER happened to me before. It was as if I had never even been there.<br />
<br />
I've never seen a place like the Big Island of Hawaii. Perhaps it is the high cost of living there and so many people are on a hand to mouth existence. Meanwhile the percentage of alcoholics, drug addicts, people on social services, is unlike anything I've ever seen anywhere. No one trusts anyone else. People are constantly being ripped off. Their homes are broken into. Then there is a very large New Age, Trust Fund, airhead contingent that behaves like they have completely lost their minds, which I suspect is true. One needs only to read the Craig's List personals to see what kind of romance climate is present. I saw what it would be like if America went Communist Socialist because that is the atmosphere there. It is the most depressing environment I have ever been in.<br />
<br />
For all the pretentious, over the top, cartoon spirituality I saw there, that island was a hotbed of the most intense materialism and epidemic selfishness and narcissistic self involvement I have ever seen. It is as if, they being unable to see themselves as they are, are able to behave in ways that even a mental defective would know better than. It's truly a land of the haves and have nots and the width of the separation is remarkable and... not in a good way. If you're ever in the area and enjoy unintended humor and irony, locate some of the island billboards and local new age publications and you'll be in for a treat. You really have to experience it. My telling you about it won't convey the unreality of it.<br />
<br />
There is a palpable anger in the air and a racial divide that is striking. I went to a few events where this was in your face and intimidating. Nearly every man I met was on their own. I was told the women were impossible to be around and I did see evidence of that, though personally, I had no interest in that kind of company. It was so crazy there that when I arrived in California it seemed sane in an almost surreal way by comparison.<br />
<br />
In conclusion; Charlie had asked for an address in the initial, time warp, query. I sent it to him. This morning I received a reply from him, telling me he had already sent the money off. Wow! Here's the thing. The whole time that time kept passing, I never thought badly of him, or cursed him out in my head. I did think of it being emblematic of that location, a zone of lost souls, some kind of material purgatory where nothing works out. Then I come to find that he had tried to contact me, soon after ...and had done the right thing and was a good guy (God bless you Charlie for being a diamond in the rough!!!) and... so was I; for not projecting negative intent on his part, regardless of the island leaving me with that impression about nearly everyone I had met. This has proved to be a powerful lesson for me. NEVER...never make assumptions about people until you know what's going on. As for what I've said about the island, those are not presumptions but the result of a full year of contact, wherein nothing changed and my worst impressions were confirmed. The only exception being Charlie and a couple that I knew from the film club.<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's <a href="https://www.facebook.com/charlie.abel.73">Charlie's page</a>. If Tom Waits shaved his head, this is who he would look like. I know this has been a strange posting. I don't know why it turned out like this or went where it did. Sometimes things just happen all on their own. This certainly did.<br />

<br />
Modern Society, in the grip of Materialism, is an offense that is visited upon Nature, through the vehicle of what is called civilization and the outcome is that Nature is distorted into an artificial construct that makes men effeminate... Balance goes missing and the result is an ever increasing perversity of sexual expression. The rot of corruption appears and the moral compass goes awry. Then comes the sexualization of children and a War on Innocence.<br />
<br />
<br />
Civilization is humanities reaction to pain.<br />
<br />
<br />
The political arena becomes the playing field for rich men, who have surrendered their souls for gain and who subsequently have no presence of conscience. Laws are passed for ever greater degrees of permissiveness. There's money to be made in that. It's drinks all around, at the high table, for lawyers. The Fallen Angels dance in celebration for the depravity of humanity. Evil is performed for the sheer joy of it.<br />
<br />
Those whose job it is to fabricate history and misrepresent the present, arrange for what never happened to be a common memory and justification for all that follows. The journeyman psychologists and diseased psychiatrists, rewrite The Book of Normal. They proceed with Byzantine minutiae, in a dance of intricate convolutions, which make right and proper every excess and indulgence, while casting a baleful eye and official censure upon every aspiration for a better world.<br />
<br />
The sane and righteous among us are shouted down, accused of every heresy their critics can invent. Men and women shove one another aside, in a frantic rush to proclaim their fealty to the Gods of this world. Any other devotions, or thinking to the contrary, are determined to be anathema to the public good which... has nothing to do with the public good but everything to do with the climate of manufactured perspectives.<br />
<br />
This morning I find that the administration is celebrating the alleged demise of a highly ranked, media bad guy, with commentary on him being a whinging coward. This was EXACTLY the same treatment I saw for fall guy Bin Laden and that great hero of Africa, Muammar Gaddafi. What wasn't mentioned was that ISIS was created by American and Israeli intelligence services, so it looks like we did (or didn't) bump off one of our own employees.<br />
<br />
Every time I, foolishly, let myself be drawn into admiration for President Trump, something like this happens; a shameless publicity stunt. I am a huge fan of his accomplishments and a strong adherent, due to the horrific potential of his rivals for office ...but... I have to fall back on the unshakable certainty that it is The Divine Persona who is in charge of EVERYTHING that does and does not happen. I am then obliged to pray that he guide this president in all he says and does, for the good of this country. It's going well for the latter, not so swimmingly for the former.<br />
<br />
If you are one of the remaining sane, in these times of general, pervasive madness, you are transphobic by default. If you are a consciously participating, upright member of the human race, you have to be default transphobic and all manner of other phobic. If you are FOR SOMETHING, you must also be FOR WHATEVER RESULTS BY ITS PRESENCE. If the Gay Agenda results in sybaritic grope-fests, in the moshpits of The Swamps of Entropy, in some Meth-infused bathhouse, where hundreds upon thousands, writhe in a sightless Hell of flaming darkness, is this some kind of PG-13?<br />
<br />
If they march in celebrations of their behavior, waving their pierced genitalia in the faces of children, is this truly an example of the high road of social evolution?<br />
<br />
Now we are provided with offenses against childhood and every tricycle it rode in on, via Drag Queen Story Hour, as porcine Halloween, cartoon characters, from the dark side of H.P. Lovecraft's nightmares, grope 6 to 8 year old children, rolling on the floor with them and Transpreading in fairy tale princess outfits, as their junk extrudes through pantyhose then... well, there you go, don't you? AND... if you say anything. IF YOU SAY ANYTHING, you're an evil NAZI, who must be shunned and possibly (as soon as it is legal) liquidated by all right thinking people who do want this in their backyard. WELL... COUNT ME AS ONE WHO SAID SOMETHING. PUT MY NAME UP ON THAT WALL OF SHAME, WHEREVER IT MAY BE. I WILL PAY THE STONE MASON TO INSCRIBE IT THEREUPON.<br />
<br />
No one... much cared, once alt-sex dancers got the right to doe see doe in the privacy of their own abodes; live and let live but... it didn't stop there and so far it hasn't stopped here and it isn't going to stop until every straight (preferably white) male, willing or unwilling, is stripped naked and strapped over a barrel, for the passing pleasure of all and sundry. The operative phrase will be; “if they're old enough to stand, they're old enough to be strapped to the barrel.” It will be a modification of that old saw, “old enough to bleed, old enough to butcher.” which was one of those Red Neck Anthems from days of yore.<br />
<br />
I remember being in Big Sur a good long time ago and I went into a bar. I remember standing at the urinal. While I did my business, I read the graffiti and came upon one I will NEVER FORGET, “Hippies are living proof that Niggers and Jews Fuck Dogs.” I was a Hippie, thankfully I did not have a dog. I'd already heard about the right wing types in that neck of the woods. Those words of depraved wit, from some hardscrabble philosopher, were all I needed to see to confirm it. What was more telling, was that the phrase had been left up and... from what I could see, had been there awhile.<br />
<br />
Eventually, most of these alt-sex dancers, are going to Allemande Left off the Cliff's of Darwin but... for the moment, they and their Satanic handlers in the shadows, are fair capable of making your life Hell on Earth, which is the intended objective after all. I've often thought that one becomes a slave, when they cease to be their own master. Presently, humanity is well on its way to being enslaved. It's being enslaved by appetite and corporation stimulated, base desire. It's being enslaved through fear and its own cowardice to confront the encroachment of behaviors, fabricated to ensnare their children and turn their children against them. “Citoyen J'accuse”, was the calling card of the Jacobin's in Revolutionary France. It was another variant on “Burn the Witch!” and “Stone the Heretic!”<br />
<br />
Remember the last scene in the Donald Sutherland version of Invasion of the Bodysnatchers? He turns and points with an open mouthed silent cry, identifying one of those who has not yet fallen asleep. Don't fall asleep, even if you do have to get out of Dodge.<br />
<br />
<br />
Yes, count me in as one who is not going to be intimidated by feckless poltroons, whose only confidence is to be found as a Masked Pillsbury Dough Boy in a ravening mob.<br />
<br />
<br />
I've been watching videos of late. Possibly I need to cut back. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND how these people became convinced of such absurdities. They are openly admitting to a desire to hurt anyone who fits into the wrong demographic of being alive. I haven't seen a white supremacist in I don't know when. I know the argument being used. It's called, 'playing the victim card' and that has been honed to perfection by a certain group who use it in every circumstance, who manufacture events where they can flaunt their victimization. In recent times, in France, when events of this nature were investigated, the facts showed that the events were fabricated by members of this very group, almost without exception.<br />
<br />
There is a reason why certain people might want to gain control of a nation's money supply. There are reasons why one would wish to control the media, SO THAT THEY CAN CONTROL THE NARRATIVE, to control the entertainment industries so that THEY CAN SHAPE HUMAN VALUES AND BEHAVIORS. It is PATENTLY OBSERVABLE! This is ALL EASILY PROVEN WITH OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE. I did not invent this. I discovered it. I went where the truth led me. I am not happy to have found what I have found. How much simpler and easier it would be for me if I had discovered something else. Well... that ship has sailed. It is what it is and as Mr. Apocalypse perambulates with purpose through this world, more and more people are awakening to this truth, so there is a concerted and impassioned effort to steer the public's attention into ANY OTHER DIRECTION.<br />
<br />
If we had to rely on our own power, on our own efforts, the battle would have been lost long ago but, in fact, the battle was won long ago, when The Master walked this Earth and demonstrated the Power of Love over everything, including Death itself. Now we come upon the time of The Harvesting of Souls. We are in the time of the new arriving age. The Throne of God is to be revealed to those with eyes to see. Shall some measure of us be caught up to meet him in the air? Will he simply, with his Angel Armies, vanquish all evil and drive it to its nether home? I do not know what shape it will take and there are VERY FEW who do. What I do know is that whatever shape it may take, it will occur. The Bat Shit Crazy that we are witness to in these times is ALL FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEMONSTRATION. We live in that time of the coming of The Lord and he will, assuredly, “trample out the vintage where the Grapes of Wrath are stored.”<br />

Dog Poet Transmitting.......<br />
<br />
Today is the 25<sup>th</sup> of October and this is some kind of a power portal for Witches. I knew that Halloween, Samhain was a power date. I didn't know anything about October 25<sup>th</sup>. Way...yell- it turns out that October 25<sup>th</sup> is Halloween. This comes as news to me but then... I was thinking, Christmas is on the 25<sup>th</sup> of December but it is intended to be the Christian overlay upon the Winter Solstice, which is 21-22 so... I guess that might be the reason somehow.<br />
<br />
This evening, Witches here and witches there, witches everywhere, with or without purple hair, ugly or beautiful, in the eye of the beholder, are going to be <a href="https://www.churchmilitant.com/news/article/witches-to-cast-spell-on-president-trump-at-midnight">gathering or acting in singularity to perform a 'binding spell' on President Trump</a>. The intention is to prevent him from doing harm to the country. Now... RIGHT THERE... RIGHT THERE... I got a question; WHAT IF HE ISN'T DOING ANY HARM? That's subjective isn't it? Who is deciding what is HARMFUL? Is it harmful to close the southern borders, against an influx of millions of immigrants, whose immigration is being engineered by George Soros and ancillary Satanic brethren, so that the Democratic party can have a wave of newly minted Democratic voters? Is that harmful?<br />
<br />
Is it harmful to create the most robust economy in decades? Is it harmful to generate the best employment figures in decades? Is it harmful to drain The Swamp of the Deep State Alligators? Is it harmful to go after the human traffickers and pedophiles in a way that NO ONE HAS EVER DONE BEFORE? If none of these things are harmful and if it is not President Trump's intention to harm America in any other manner; doesn't this mean that 'the binding spell' will have no impact whatsoever?<br />
<br />
They are not asking that President Trump be bound from performing any act that they (the witches) identify as harmful. They are simply talking generically harmful. That would then- as I understand the principles, mean whatever the general idea of harm is in the minds of the largest body of people. I imagine you can do the math on that.<br />
<br />
I don't want to say that there are a lot of very stupid people. I DO NOT WANT to say this. I do not want to also say that there are FAR MORE STUPID PEOPLE than there ever was previously. I don't mean this to be true simply because there is a greater population. I am implying a percentile density of stupidity over all.<br />
<br />
Even though I don't want to say that there are a WHOLE LOT OF STUPID PEOPLE, I do want to discuss what accounts for it, if it proves to be true, that there are not only a lot of stupid people but more stupid people than ever before (and, if it's true, it's increasing). The reasons are; (drum roll) the intensification of Materialism, the advances in technological convenience, the loss of educational standards, possibly a watering down of the gene pool, the aggressiveness of vaccine programs, drugs and alcohol abuse, epidemic sexual promiscuity (Yes, that will render you stupid), relentless brainwashing and... RAMPANT APPETITE EXCESSES + an obsession with trivial pursuits to the exclusion of all other interests and which leads to the death of curiosity in the deeper considerations of life. I could add a great deal of minutiae to this brief listing but this will serve, for the moment.<br />
<br />
When I was in Europe I used to visit this German pub in the town where I lived. It was called The Bahnof, which means train station. There was a single track, train there and it did run on Sundays to some town a few kilometers up the road. The Germans are often a garrulous lot and I would wind up in conversation with them. Some percentage of them are taciturn. I did not talk to those.<br />
<br />
On one occasion I found myself talking to this one fellow who began to tell me about his problems. This is a common features in bars and the problems are often the reason people are there in the first place. People at a certain level of emotional development also get lonely. That can be a problem for them. I vastly prefer being alone, mostly because I never am, even when I am, alone.<br />
<br />
So this fellow is telling me about his problems, which like most problems, centered around other people (probably another reason I like being alone). Although we may not be as effective with our own problems, some of us are very good at solving other people's problems. I'm pretty good at that (or I thought I was), or so my past history indicates. There are a couple of reasons for this; I'm empathetic and I give a shit. Those might both be the same thing. I also rely heavily on my Objective Perspective. <b>I've seen what happens to people who don't</b>.<br />
<br />
So... this fellow is telling me his problems and it did not take long before the solution leapt into my mind- almost as if it had been deposited there from another location- and I told him what it was. He responded with a resounding, “Yeah, that's what I must do.” (“Ja! das ist es, was ich tun muss.”)... or something like that. He was pretty cheerful after that, as if a weight had been lifted from his shoulders. Sometimes the perception that something has been remedied, even if it has yet to occur, is as good as if it has happened already. He probably bought me a beer and we went on to other great matters of the world, which we no doubt sorted out on that afternoon. I left at some point and forgot all about it. That's what I do.<br />
<br />
Fast forward some months; I walk into the same pub, of an afternoon ...and encounter the same fellow, sitting in morose introspection. I think that used to be called a 'brown study'. I joined him and asked him how it was going. He proceeded to tell me about the very same problem that he had told me about the last time, as if he did not remember even discussing it with me. He did not. I reminded him of our conversation and then he remembered. I asked him if he had applied the solution that was proffered. He said, “No.” When I asked him why that was, he could not tell me; “I must have forgotten.” I think he said. Then it came to me in a flash of revelation. Boom! I saw what was what. This happens to me sometimes and it happened then. I saw that HE IS HIS PROBLEM. This is how he identifies himself. Without his problem he would not be who he is. He needs the problem(s) to be him.<br />
<br />
I left the pub that day greatly changed. What I had seen has stayed with me and since that time I have looked at people in a very different way. It has been of great value and saved me a lot of time I would have otherwise wasted, trying to change what it is not my place, or in my power, to change. I had always been devoted to helping people. It is some kind of an impetus that makes me who I am. Hopefully I did less harm and more good overall. I suspect that in many instances, there was no change.<br />
<br />
I am not saying you can't help people. You can. Along with what I learned that day, I learned a new method for being useful and that is to just listen to people and see the nature of their need in my mind. Since there is ONLY ONE MIND, whatever I am thinking is accessible to the person(s) I am with. You can heal people in quietude. You can just be around people and make them better by being better yourself. Healthy and well balanced people have a contagion to them, just like sick people. Negative people spread negativity and positive people spread positivity. Look at what The Sun accomplishes.<br />
<br />
I saw a discussion at Pocketnet a couple of months ago. Two people were talking about magic spells and one of them said, “Yeah... and it just rebounds on the person who cast it.” That's not true. It CAN BE true (One has to use the mirroring principle, in defense, to get the rebound) but it is not per se. There would be no point at all in practicing such things if the inevitable result was to harm yourself. Of course, we can think of many examples where this is IN FACT true.<br />
<br />
People can be very self destructive but in the matter of Magic, certain rules apply. I'm reminded of a tale told by Aleister Crowley. He was involved in a magical war with someone, it was around the time he was with MacGregor Mathers. He knew (for reasons I do not recall) that he was going to be under magical attack that day during a certain period. He then went to the cinema and watched two Charlie Chaplin movies and the spells had no impact. This should lead a person to consider the connections between The Devil and laughter. Laugh at the devil and he will run from you. I'm not promoting Crowley, who I consider a wastrel. I have had many of the same difficulties as he but... also the good sense to eschew Magic as a result. You need a certain mindset to get into these things. It would not have gone well for me if I'd gone that route. I studied these subjects for decades but... that's as far as it went. I'm a mystic, not a magician. One REALLY needs to know the difference.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Powers WILL COME if one practices austerities and spiritual disciplines. They come with the territory, so to speak. My posture on this matter is to leave those powers in the hands of the indwelling and should HE FIND A NEED to exercise them, fine... otherwise? Not happening.<br />
<br />
So these witches are going to get together, here and there, in whatever which way and do a 'binding spell' on President Trump. I should point out that they have been casting these binding spells for several years now. Here is what I have seen, as far as the broad strokes of contemporary, self styled, magical workers go. I'm talking about the gamut from Tarot Card readings to child sacrifice. VERY FEW of these people have any idea of what they are up to. For instance, they go around doing Tarot Card readings, telling the fortunes of strangers. I have studied the Tarot and related subjects for decades. Some of that time was under the tutelage of experts. Anyone with a particle of common sense knows better that to study Tarot Card arrangements to predict the future, which I might add, they fail miserably at. It's carny action. WHAT IS THE POINT OF TRYING TO PREDICT THE FUTURE WHEN YOU CAN CHANGE THE OUTCOME?????????????????????? The whole point of Tarot Cards is that they are meditation devices that permit you to transform your personal being and dramatically alter your Fate. Do you see what I am saying here? It gives new meaning to 'stupid' in this context.<br />
<br />
Some VERY FEW of these witches <a href="https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/sex-drugs-and-broomsticks-the-origins-of-the-iconic-witch">know their broomstick from their vibrator</a>. I've no beef with Wicca or any of the other Nature Worship systems. However, I do know the difference between a CIRCLE and a SPIRAL. Think upon that if you will.<br />

<br />
I am an exceedingly fortunate fellow. The reason for that is that I have direct experiential evidence of the existence of a Divine Persona and Impersonal Persona. How this happened for me was the result of revelation attended by brutal trauma and ensuing protection from brutal trauma but we won't be talking about that.<br />
<br />
I got arrested around the age of twenty for the sale of 2 ounces of Marijuana. I didn't sell it myself. I was in the middle of the operation and I smelled a rat and kept saying, “I'm not going to handle the money.” How they got me was, I got out of the car and John Reed, who I think was cooperating with them, took off for Frankie's apartment, real quick like (Frankie was the guy with the pot) and one of the Undercovers called me back and said, “Here's twenty dollars, get me another ounce.” I said, “I'll give this to John.” I guess that was enough to implicate me. We crossed the border from D.C. Into Virginia to do this so... it was Federal. At first they wanted to give me 20 years for The Marijuana Tax Act but it got broken down to a 2-10 and turned into what's called a Zip-6. That's 60 days to 6 years and it runs if you are in or out so... 2.5 of those years were spent on the run and I did every day of it, one way or another but... got a pardon from the governor at the end (yet another story).<br />
<br />
John Hall, who was my closest friend at the time, was along for the ride. There were half a dozen of us in two cars. John went on to write <i>“Still the One”</i>, <i>“Dancing in the Moonlight”</i> and a few others. He sold <i>“Still the One”</i> to Burger King for a million dollars. He got quite famous for these songs and as a studio guitarist. After months on the run, I was arrested by an armada of cops at his parent's house. They had spotlights on it and some number of them were on their knees with guns drawn. The detective that arrested me was know as 'the White Rabbit'. He was an infamous narco-cop at that time. It was later that I found out that John had told his parents I was on the run and they, because they felt I had a negative influence over John, called the police on me. He knew about this happening too. I don't know what his reasons were. We had been near inseparable for almost two years at that time.<br />
<br />
I had my Kundalini experience during this period and it freaked John and many others out because of the supernatural events that attended and followed it. This also caused the police to think of me as a Rasputin type of guy, although I wasn't mesmerizing the ladies for sex, or doing much else except talking about God; but the supernatural events were inexplicable and intense and you know how the authorities are about things they can't understand.<br />
<br />
At the time, all the jails and prisons in the area were about 90% black. I was tall and slender. You can do the math on that BUT... NOTHING ever happened to me. I think this may have affected the authorities even more. Then, all that time on the run, they couldn't find me, even though I was RIGHT THERE. They came after me because Scientology sold them a big line/lie about me. That amplified the myth as well. Scientology considered me a 'suppressive'. I didn't do anything to them except tell the truth. It turned out that they don't like that.<br />
<br />
All of this led to my being confined in The John Howard Pavilion for the Criminally Insane, at St. Elizabeth's Hospital, which is now the main center for Homeland Security. The first day in there, I went to lunch and there was only one seat available and it was at the table with the heaviest hitters in the place. Albert Smith was a bank robber. Waverly Holden was a stickup man who liked liquor stores. One day he was coming back from the grocery store with two bags of groceries, one in each arm and a couple of guys were hiding in the basement stairway, waiting for him. He came in, guns went off, he dropped his groceries and blew them both away. Following that, he burned down the apartment building to get rid of the evidence. That's how he wound up at St. E's.<br />
<br />
Then there was 'Feets' Robinson. Feets was about 6'8” and somewhere around 300 pounds and was the most amazing athlete I've ever seen up close. Watching him play basketball and football out in the rec field was a wonder to behold.<br />
<br />
Feets liked to rape and strangle nurses. He got six of them before they caught him and locked him up at St. E's. Later on... toward the end of my stay there, the head doctor at John Howard instituted a program to release some number of inmates out into less restricted housing. Feets was one they let out. He promptly raped and strangled a nurse on the grounds and was right back in; unconcerned. I went to Dr. Kunev who was our ward doctor (this was before Feets strangled the nurse) and said, “Dr., All you have to do is say I'm okay and they'll let me go!” He replied, in his deep Hungarian accent, “No... no, Mr. Crook” (my birth name was Leslie William Crook). “You are far too sick and dangerous. I could not possibly release you.” How I did get out is an amazing tale but for another time.<br />
<br />
So there I am, sitting at the table with these guys. I was a vegetarian and only ate once a day at that time. I asked if anyone wanted the meat on my plate and there you go. We got to talking and it turned out they really liked me. They called me, “Gypsy”. I've no idea why. My association with them kept all predators at a distance. Heh heh... the tales I can tell about those 22 months; later. Anyway, they were all black men. So you could say, as I do in the song that will attend this post, <i>“Blackman saved my ass in prison.”</i><br />
<br />
None of this is directly related to why I am writing this today. It is and it isn't; just like everything in life. I've a more than average association with black people in my life and I've had some enduring friendships over time. Still do.<br />
<br />
My point is this; from my experience with black people and brown people and Asians, which is pretty considerable, most of all of them... and I mean the far larger percentage, are really decent people and will take you as you present yourself, until you show different. There is a great deal of nasty rhetoric and violent encounters taking place these days. They steal all the headlines and make you think that there is a race war brewing, that color defines you, that white people are evil and yadda yadda. This is what THEY want you to think and you know who THEY are. THEY own the media and control the entertainment worlds, which contribute VASTLY to the perspectives, the subjective among us form.<br />
<br />
What I am telling you here, which is the truth, is that the humanity in humanity, worldwide, is a Saving Grace. These are the people who work in the stores and offices you visit. They pass you in the streets. They fix your car and they sell you your car. They attend those sporting events you go to, the concerts and movies. They are your neighbors and they are all HUMAN BEINGS and it is NOT the way that the social influencers and manipulators tell you with their, “If it bleeds it leads.” You get from people what you invest in them and Love overpowers everything, PERIOD.<br />
<br />
When the time comes, it is the humanity in the majority that will absorb and quiet the minority. We are all going to be awakened, like it or not, to our true nature. For some this is going to qualify as a true delight of discovery. For some it is going to be otherwise.<br />
<br />
<br />
The Avatar is coming, or already here. There are 8 billion people on the planet. There is no way that The Avatar comes as a single individual, for this massively populated world to interact with. The Avatar is going to appear in every heart that has prepared a place for him. This is regardless of the religion you follow and independent of your expectations. One thing you may be ABSOLUTELY SURE OF, what happens and when it happens, is not going go down according to ANY fundamentalist doctrines. THE LOVE... THE LOVE of the Divine is going to awaken in every heart that is at all welcoming. The Avatar is also going to show up in every mind and... ACCORDING TO YOUR DISPOSITION... so shall be the tenor of the experience. For some, a golden age is going to arrive. For others, I cannot say.<br />
<br />
In the Lord of the Rings, there was that final battle on the Fields of Cormallen. It was called the <a href="http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Battle_of_the_Morannon">Battle of the Morannon</a>. The army of The West was greatly outnumbered. Many might have felt they were marching into certain death.<br />
<br />
The whole effort of calling out Sauron's legions was to act as a distraction and keep the eye of Sauron away from Mt Doom, where Frodo and Samwise were going to drop the ring, into the molten fires where it had been formed. The short of it is that The Ring went into the lava and was destroyed and AS THAT HAPPENED, the Dark Lord's forces LOST THEIR MINDS and direction. Sauron had put a great deal of his power into The Ring. Game Over. I often think of that moment and how it parallels the state of our times. It really seems that the Infernal Realm is rising into manifest being in places. People are ALREADY losing their minds and it is clear to any objective consciousness that some dark, magical force has taken possession of them. When the avatar breaks the spell that has been cast over the consciousness of the enslaved, it is all going to change. Those who had been doing great harm to the many are going to find themselves powerless and without purpose.<br />
<br />
GOD IS REAL and you are his/her manifest extension and expression in this dream of life. The appearance of the Divine is the penultimate event of The Purpose of Demonstration. This is why so many people are here (though they have forgotten), for The Grand Summing Up. It is closer with every moment that passes, in the human mind, where time is a measuring tool, for the movement of every incident that appears in the Event Horizon.<br />
<br />
When the time comes, the humanity in the hearts of the people is going to rise to the occasion; black, white, brown, red, yellow (and green), man and woman and child, are all going to feel their essential being coming to the fore. The force of this will blow away the darkness, in every backroom and boardroom where it has collected. The lizard mind of the servants of Satan will flee to the caverns in the mountains. They will hide at the bottom of the ocean. The living light will be everywhere and there will be <i>♫ nowhere to run, nowhere to hide ♫</i><br />
<br />
<i>“And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;</i> <b><i>And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne,</i></b> <i>and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?”</i><br />
<br />
Don't be discouraged by the bad behavior of small congregations of wanna be revolutionaries. They are as pathetic in appearance as they are in pretending to be bad asses. They are essentially confused and misled. They got a wake up call coming. If the light of the divine goes before you, the agents of the darkness will flee. They will seek for those with the darkness in them that attracts. Be without darkness. There is more power in a single surrendered heart than there is in all the armies of the world. <i>“Little children, you are from God and have overcome them,</i> <b><i>for He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”</i></b><br />

<br />
And... here we are again... day follows day... post follows post. The world spins and twists in an agony of global revolution; The Catalans are at it again in Spain. Chile is going off. Hong Kong is in open revolt against China and intensifying. Mr. Apocalypse is walking the world with his walking stick, lifting up the skirts of the dark underneath... uncovering, revealing, exposing. An apocalypse is a season of the Cosmos. It is in regular rotation, like our four seasons. Our terrestrial seasons are mirrored from The Cosmos, which has its own seasons. An apocalypse comes at the end of a cycle of cosmic seasons, so that all can begin afresh. This necessarily involves a great deal of pain for those who resist change. Change is the eternal constant. Change is the cornerstone of eternity. Stress is the biggest killer of human life. It may express in a variety of forms; acting on a particular organ, or the entire physical system ...but Stress is the initiator and stress occurs as a result of resistance to change.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you literally did not resist change you would not die. <i>“We shall not all die (sleep) but we shall all be changed.”</i><br />
<br />
<br />
Cultures have seasons. This is why there is the rise and decline. History gives us ample example of that. Nothing external can be depended on and it is the nature of the deluded to rely on facets of the external manifest. This is followed by inevitable loss and disappointment. <b>You attach your fate to that which you have put your faith in</b>. I suggest that sentence be pondered.<br />
<br />
<br />
You can't tell anyone anything if they are convinced they already know. This is one of the major differences between children and adults. Adults become rigidified and stop learning, except when trauma or some other life changing event comes into play. Christ admonishes to become as a little child if we want to enter the kingdom of Heaven. There is more to this than the state of innocence (presently under world wide threat). Children are ALREADY in the Kingdom of Heaven. They forget this when they cease to be children and their invisible friends disappear too (their invisible friends disappear? Yeah... there's something wrong with that sentence).<br />
<br />
People come to the end of their lives, if they survive to the latter stages and often... senility occurs. There is an alternative to that called, “regenerated innocence”. You can have this if you are able to regain your child-like mind. It is still resident within. There is a deeper reason for the pedophilia virus that afflicts the corrupted elite. Of the many things that Satan hates, Innocence is at the top of the list. That is why there is such a push for the sexualization of children and for many who are sexually attracted to children, it is often a perverted effort to regain their own previous state. They're just going about it wrong.<br />
<br />
Life does not have to be misery and it certainly is for many people and that number increases in direct proportion to the degree of Materialism that pervades the culture. Religions have become so corrupt at this point that anyone with any intelligence is driven away. They are often driven in a direction that harms them spiritually. Most every virulent atheist (with the exception of those attracted to evil for the joy of it) is as they are because of Religion and the many offenses committed by Religion, over the course of history. Any time I talk to someone who does not believe in living divinity, it always revolves around Religion. Religion is like the training wheels on a bicycle. It ceases to have useful function once you encounter the entity that it is created to celebrate.<br />
<br />
Religions are like a suit of clothes. They are the clothes that Divinity wore at a certain time. Then time passes and the divinity is no longer wearing those clothes and now those clothes are worshiped and not the one who was wearing them 'once upon a time'. Divinity is a living thing. It is resident in you at this very moment. The truth is that you would not be alive otherwise. Let me give a manifest example. The Sun is the source of all physical life on this planet. If The Sun ceased to shine, all life here would end. EVERYTHING here is an expression of sunlight captured in form. Just as there is a material state, there are also finer and finer states that exist outside the reach of the narrow bandwidth of the senses. It is possible to live in one of those states, while still being resident here. There are those who do. I know this because I have met them.<br />
<br />
If you study the world and what takes place in it, certain features should come to your attention. The World, if it is considered as a force, has a particular purpose and that is to fascinate your mind with what is to be found there. It also serves to awaken your passion, in respect of the items in its possession. The point is to hypnotize you into the belief that it is real. It is real in a relative sense but otherwise it has no permanence and your affinity with it renders you into a 'mortal state'. Everything comes and goes and... so do you. Out of this comes your value system; <i>“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”</i> That quote is part of a larger statement and what follows it is this; <i>“The eye is the lamp of the body. If your vision is clear, your whole body will be full of light.”</i><br />
<br />
<br />
It is a truth that we wander in darkness and that is because we wander blind and that is because of what leads us and where it leads. It is possible for you to reside in a living solar body and not have to be an animated corpse, walking moment to moment toward your departure. Here is one of the clearest expressions of insanity; when one is walking for a temporary length of time, through a world of temporary things, where all of their attention and love is placed upon what is CERTAIN to be lost and to depart and to be ignoring the alternative, which is literally, eternal life. The truth of this has already been put into evidence in the life of Jesus the Christ and others. Once again, I want to include that chapter from Autobiography of a Yogi, where Yogananda's teacher, <a href="http://thenazareneway.com/Autobiography_of_a_Yogi/Chapter%2043.htm">Sri Yukteswar returns to visit him in a physical body</a>.<br />
<br />
The tale of Yogananda's spiritual teacher is simply of one of so many that I have experienced in this life that I can't even remember most of them. If you are a dyed in the wool materialist, or a religious fundamentalist, most of this will never even come to your attention. In fact, most people miss most of everything. It all just streams by, in an endless carousel of the objects of desire, wreathed in the smoke of appetite and interspersed with sexual fantasies, hopeless ambitions of mismanaged daydreaming, periodic bouts of anger and resentment, followed by waves of guilt and regret AND endless commercials for shit you don't need. Those are the components of the nature of ordinary existence.<br />
<br />
You show up here, you have (if you're lucky) a short period of irrepressible wonder and outbursts of unrestrained enthusiasms, where Summer lasted for near forever and first love was so awe inspiring that no recollection of it even remains now and then... your world separated in two through puberty, which is the headstone for childhood's end. After that... everything changed and nothing lasted very long, except for regret and the pummeling shame that uncontrolled memory lashes most of us with. There are some success stories, many of them came at great expense to others. There were those whose special dreams came to fruition and they surely paid for that previous to. Then it's over.<br />
<br />
One MUST regain their innocence and... as is ever the case with anything. One must want it more than anything else. When you are through sleeping with the swine and being drunk on bad wine, Jacob's Ladder will appear in your dream (of life) as it did for Jacob.<br />
<br />
The Good, the Bad, the Ugly and the Beautiful are over and you go somewhere (apparently there are different places, depending on how you conducted yourself) and then you come back here again, to get that anticipated dream, or to pay for injuries you inflicted and on and on and on it goes but... here and there, some of us slip through the cracks of the material darkness, into an effulgent, incomprehensible, indescribable light of rapture and bliss supreme and ANYONE CAN DO IT! YOU JUST HAVE TO WANT IT MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE, just like you did all those other things earlier on. DESIRE IS THE AGENT OF GOD'S WILL.<br />
<br />
It's best to forget about things like Good and Evil. It's a form of lasting Liberation, not to want anything. It is a Joy past description to be Self Contained. The oddity of it all, is that thing. That thing we are all seeking in everything else and not finding, is right there in the center of us the whole time. You might well ask, “How come it can take so many lifetimes to find it?” First off, it can't be found in anything outside of you and that is where the vast majority of us spend our time looking. It also cannot be had, unless you are that certain one who is permitted to have it because you cut your false self loose. Two things can't occupy the same space at the same time (unless you're a wave). There are the things, that the thing we are all searching for, will not abide among. Finally... you have to impress the one who facilitates its acquisition, or... you... WILL... NEVER... GET... IT. You have to impress the ceaseless watcher of your sincerity and inflexible resolve, after that, it's child's play.<br />

<br />
I'll admit that I don't know what's going on in its entirety. I only know what presents itself to me on the surface and then what my Reason presents to me; what my Logic delivers through my internalized Socratic dialogue and most importantly, what my intuition provides me with.<br />
<br />
I came to Pocketnet this morning, as I often do and I had been coming here for a few months because, regardless of the perpetual waves of Trivia that I am exposed to there, I invariably encountered bright spots of articulate intelligence, as well as information I hadn't previously encountered. Sometimes there were well thought out graphic images of ironic sound-bytes. I'm not into the Lazy Twitter, armchair Budweiser sots, who need a shopping cart for their potbellies, as they push through Walmart World, filling them with toxic, industrial, salt and sugar comestibles, guaranteed to do worse than kill them, before they kill them.<br />
<br />
I never joined Twitter and I won't. I'm not a Twit. I still have an amount of Dignity, Integrity and aspirations to Honor. I try EVERY DAY to be a better person. Sometimes I am furious with myself, not having accomplished more in that respect by this time. Life is hard; can be hard ...but it is NEVER SO HARD as when you are TRYING TO CHANGE. That is why so many people give up after the cursory foreplay, in the pitched, sexually magnetic battle between opposites, that then cross over each other like legs and break their nose. There is a dangerous myopia that sets in when you get too close to something you badly want but have misidentified as something else.<br />
<br />
Today was a trial for me at Pocketnet. Maybe it was just today, just this morning and... it will change later on. The larger saner part of me says, “No” but I am willing to ignore the handful of shit and wish upon the handful of hope.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>I KNOW THIS POSTING IS GOING TO DEEPLY OFFEND SOME PEOPLE</b>. I'm sorry about that. I've only got two choices. One is to tell the truth and the other is to rise above the scrum, rise above the moshpit of stupid, that wars against itself, in the hateful turf wars over non existent landscapes. What do I gain in argument with people whose entire identity is built around erecting a support structure for personal hallucinations? People who are dead wrong about things they don't understand are not likely to be swayed by evidence of the real, which can't be directly presented anyway but only hinted at, in the hopes that an effort will be made to ruminate thereupon. Good luck with that!<br />
<br />
Yes, I could rise about it. That is what I have been trying to do and to not react as was the case in times past; to take the high road and keep my own council but... it seems like... it feels like I had better get this off my chest, however much it may wind up costing me and I'll feel better having done so. I am convinced that I am NOT THE ONLY ONE who feels like I do. So... let me preface this with- I'm sorry for what I am going to say but... here it is.<br />
<br />
What I saw today was... unsettling commercials for BACON and PORK, cutesy cat pictures that belong on preteen social media, arguments about what name God is going by, endless hammering on crypto currencies with ZERO useful information, really stupid and pointless cartoons, cutesy animal graphics- Photoshopped with captions. Then there is the YouTube guy with no lips, whose personality is so off-putting you can't even listen to what he says.<br />
<br />
Then there are the Fundie Zombies, who maintain that EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING that is not a literal extraction from a book that has been spindled, folded and mutilated a zillion times, is the work of The Devil who... by the way, works for God. Fundie ignorance is ONLY exceeded by that fabricated, smug, self righteousness that is the most valued possession of those whose greatest spiritual and intellectual achievement is knowing that <b>'YOU'</b> are WRONG ...and whose utter lack of humility in the consideration of that Ineffable, Unknowable, Incomprehensible Wonder of Everlasting Splendor and Beauty is... is... DEFINITE PROOF that they are NOWHERE NEAR that which they can't shut up about.<br />
<br />
Then there are over a dozen announcements that crony, political hack, Elijah (snort) Cummings moved on to his next port of call, with ZERO commentary. This is one of the most consistent and unfortunate realities about Pocketnet; people are so fucking lazy that they can't be bothered to write more than a Twitter minimum, if that. They spend their days, packing the Pocketnet Scroll with one cartoon of stupid pet trick pictures after another, accompanied by a one liner and that serves to jump their Reputation and POC resources. On and on it goes...<br />
<br />
There are a handful of REALLY intelligent, compassionate, thoughtful people here, unlike anywhere else I've been and I hope I don't burn my bridges with them but I'm not going to let that deter me from saying what has been increasingly more and more on my mind at Pocketnet. I have ONE identity there and I use my real name. That's me. I don't insist on the same from others. Everyone has their reasons and some of them have 'hostages to fortune'. I wrote off ALL CONSIDERATIONS on that account when I took this road.<br />
<br />
The stench of Fear and Paranoia in this world is at a crisis point and the level of stupidity has reached a point, where furrows have had to be dug below the Limbo Bar. The Inarguable Truth is that GOD HAS EVERYTHING COMPLETELY UNDER CONTROL, no matter what it may look like. Our single biggest problem is that our Faith is not equal to the full and permanent recognition of that. God made this world to EXPERIENCE HIM/HER/ITSELF in manifest creation. Life IS for THE PURPOSE OF DEMONSTRATION. That's it! I don't care how many angels you dream up to engage in convoluted, dances, upon the head of a fabricated pin. I don't care how dense and complex your philosophy is, how clever your wordplay is, how anything you whatever are. If you don't get that, <b>YOU WILL</b> ...because that is the purpose of demonstration, PERIOD. You will get it, one way or another and it will probably hurt a bit.<br />
<br />
A veteran member of Pocketnet reached out to me because I had posed the question, “Why, when I have, ON AVERAGE, nearly double the 5 star votes that regular residents of Top Posts have... why am I never on Top Posts?” First... let me say, I don't care a wit whether I am there or not. I simply dislike mysteries and when I encounter one, I am a Jack Russell Terrier about it. I just don't quit until I have an answer, or I discover it cannot be answered. I am like this to a pathological degree. This veteran member told me that the Top Post thing is controlled by an in house, Pocketnet Mafia. It's like the George Carlin line about The Club; the exclusive club that exists and “you are NOT a member.” I kind of had already figured this out when Pocketnet told me they have nothing to do with it.<br />
<br />
The thing is, I don't go to Top Posts at all. I did when I first got here and occasionally I drop by for less than a minute but I almost exclusively stay in All Posts. There's no difference between what you find at either site and there is more copy at All Posts, so I go there and this has nothing to do with the rest of this posting, it's just something I thought the rest of you should know.<br />
<br />
Yeah... there's no reason for me to write another word anyway. I've already said all I have to say and now I just repeat myself. I do this because, for whatever their reasons are, there is a substantial number of people who read it and it's what I do. It's what I do. John Lennon once said, “I'm a musician. It's what I do. I could bang two garbage can lids together and make music.” We do what we do and what we do is what we are; “by their works ye shall know them.”<br />
<br />
I love God more than anything and that is only going to increase. I don't love any particular versions of God and everyone who does have one of these versions, argues about it. You CANNOT KNOW GOD. You can ONLY perceive God through his primary vehicle of expression and that is LOVE. Therefore, Love as consistently as you can and you will become that. Then you will be informed of all the things you could never discover on your own. You WILL BE INFORMED.<br />
<br />
I wrote another post and it has sat here for several days. It was a good post but... something wasn't what it was supposed to be (in my mind). So... I sat down and wrote this because this is what was on my mind and all of a sudden I feel better. This has been rolling around in my empty head like a marble and every day it annoys me more. I KNOW I can't make people be other than what they are. For some people, cutesy Post-it notes are what they do. Unfortunately, this clutters up the place and you have to wade through all the flotsam and jetsam until you find the pearls and I do... and I do find the pearls and I want to personally thank those of you who have been a delight to me in the time I've spent here. I won't name names because I will leave someone out. But... thank you.<br />
<br />
I don't know how much more time I want to spend around Pocketnet. Everything externally informing is all running together in a Mulligan Stew; jabber, jabber, jabber and I'm just as guilty as anyone else. I'm trying to be relevant and talk about THE ONLY IMPORTANT THING and that is GOD. Wherever I wind up, that is what I will be doing. Everything else is bullshit. I only even mention anything else so that I can tie it into talking about God. It daily astounds me that more people do not get it. The Glory and Splendor of the Divine is everywhere to be seen and experienced but... because of Materialism, most of the people on this planet are in a feeding frenzy at the Sensory Smorgasbord and all they want to do is eat and fuck and own shit and control each other, until they are old (if they get that far) and everything hurts and then they die. Then they come back to do it all over and over again. It is insane.<br />
<br />
Alright... I've said most of what I had to say but now I'm tired of going on about it. I apologize in advance if I hurt your feelings. Just so you know, you have hurt my feelings too, by diminishing in my eyes what you could be, by behaving like chipmunks chattering on a dead, fallen tree. It's my fault for expecting more. It's not my place to police people's social intercourse, I have only to move down the block. This built up in me and I probably did myself no favors by posting it. However, post it I shall.<br />

<br />
When you find yourself wondering how the world got the way it is, there are all sorts of causes and conditions to point to and ALL OF THEM might have something to do with it but blaming any one of them is short sighted and forces you, at a minimum, to negotiate this world with one eye closed- at least. Paul Joseph Watson gives some of the most riveting examples and incisive commentary I've yet seen in his latest rant. This is REALLY amusing.<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFkN5H4CCY0"><span style="font-size: 90%;"><i>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFkN5H4CCY0</i></span></a></div><div align="center"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fFkN5H4CCY0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div><br />
<br />
You don't have to wander about for very long in the land of insta-pop opinion to find clear and concise analysis, IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. What the man <a href="http://www.unz.com/proberts/trump-is-history-and-so-is-the-usa/">says in this link may well be true as far as surface interpretation goes</a> but... NO ONE... NO ONE... has yet been correct in their predictions about the world at large. People have picked the right teams in sporting contests. Sometimes they even get the right score. People have gotten rich predicting what someone else might do at a card table. People have gotten rich predicting which stocks will go up or down AND have likely been wrong more often than not, in the long run. However... when it comes to the state of the world, ALL I have ever observed is people being partially correct for a limited time frame and wrong about most of the rest; often not even taking into consideration the REAL intentions of the players because they may well not know what they are, nor what the conditions really are and then... there are the cosmic forces of Nature and the Invisible Planes of Above and Below.<br />
<br />
We have, more than once, presented a reasoned schematic for WHY IT IS WHAT IT IS; for why so many people are unhinged or barely hanging on to REALITY, which is not real but a 'functioning delusion' that carries them from day to day. I'll be repeating that schematic in a moment, but first... let me say that one of the few things I do know is that not everyone will agree with me and ALSO, most people will already have their own explanation for why everything is as it is. I am after the truth, no matter what may be the cost and I have already paid, on the installment plan, throughout my entire life for this. The result is that I don't own anything much, not a house, not even a car (anymore), no 'material' investments. I have a SMALL monthly stipend. I have no insurance beyond my Jumping Jack Flash policy but... I am VERY wealthy, primarily because there is just about nothing that I want. I eat well. I have shelter and the basic amenities. I have my musical instruments and computers and... I have The Ineffable and that puts me as close to paradise as we are permitted to come... here.<br />
<br />
In the wider world (and this increases by the day) what I notice most is Hunger and the Pursuit of Appetite. I notice Confusion. I notice Fear and Anger. I notice Aggressive Polarization. I notice, Alienation and Despair... These are bookmarks for The Apocalypse. There are a number of secondary considerations, I don't think I'm telling you anything. I ALSO NOTICE, Incremental Awakening intensifying in exponential fashion. I notice people seeing through artifice that once held them spellbound. The bullshit isn't working anymore; not like it used to. It is almost as if the Crazies are getting crazier and the Sane are getting saner. The fork in the road is right there, no matter what direction you turn in, there is a fork in the road. This fork is counterpointed by SWEEPING WORLD EVENTS. Many of these are in early times or inception status... give it some time and you will see what I mean. Now... back to The Schematic.<br />
<br />
The primary offspring of Materialism is Insanity, attended by depersonalization, alienation, confusion and listlessness. More and more people are being left by the side of the road as Mammon's Hummer barrels DOWN the highway; witness the homeless pandemic. On the other hand, more and more people are having their chronic dysfunction catered to and even celebrated. The progeny of the feckless, helicopter parents, are a growing menace and are easily zombified by rapacious psychopaths like Soros, The Climate Nazis, Antifa and what have you. They are indulged in their gender bending lunacy, by parents who look at them as Bonzai plants and vehicles to neighborhood celebrity. Kids in early grades are aware of the notice paid to transitioning school mates and at the colitch level the 'protected status' is just the thing for calculating narcissists who LOVE that Safe Space, “I'm having a moment” culture. There is a classic example of this at the 1:01 point in this video from Evergreen College.<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oa5yZvUnJWo"><span style="font-size: 90%;"><i>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oa5yZvUnJWo</i></span></a></div><div align="center"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Oa5yZvUnJWo" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div><br />
<br />
Atheism is the default religion of Materialism and Satanism is the operating philosophy as per the 'me first, you later, maybe' <b>SELF INTEREST PREVAILS</b>, over every other motivation and it is how you get 1 percent of the population having as much wealth as the rest of the world and in more than a few cases, individually more wealth than many countries. This creates a perspective in the chosen few, that is also prevalent in all the fields of Entertainment and Media, where these elite players acquire a God-Complex, that invariably expresses in Satanic fashion BECAUSE, behaving in a true, God inspired selfless fashion is going to categorically deny your success in any of these environments.<br />
<br />
Materialism DOES NOT stop at some point and automatically correct itself. It intensifies as it goes. As a result, the insanity intensifies as well and it spreads like an infection as it intensifies. You can literally see and palpably feel this. Network television gives you powerful examples in its programs and the advertising and it keeps getting worse. Example; Reality TV... if ever there were an oxymoron! Insanity? Here is <a href="http://orbisvitae.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=89358&#Post89358">a truly classic example</a>.<br />
<br />
The <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/beto-church-of-tax-exempt-status-gay-marriage">desperation of politicians has gone wacko</a>. Look at the latest <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/boys-scouts-explains-how-it-will-distribute-condoms-to-minors-at-upcoming-g">from the 'no longer Boy' Scouts</a>. I have more examples of the point being made, right here at hand, than I will EVER use. In tandem with the culture, as if it were an unruly beast, trying to pull the rider off the road and into the ditch, Nature is also reacting to this sense of uncertainty in the human mind and <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-wildfires-rage-evacuations-dead">this is only one of many examples</a>.<br />
<br />
I do not want to go negative on life. I also do not want to blow smoke up anyone's posterior. From one perspective it is all trending bad indeed. On the other hand, hope springs eternal and it may well be that all of appearances of chaos imminent, are going to part like curtains as the light of the Avatar walks between them. I suspect it is going to go, simultaneously in several directions at once and the determining factor in all cases will be, Intention and Character. Everyone is going to wind up at the destination they are heading in. How could that be unfair?<br />
<br />
The outcome of life, aside from unavoidable departure, is the outworking of your investment. In the scheme of things, it is what you value and what ideals you serve that determine your fate (this is what I see). Diamonds are more valuable than Gold. Gold is more valuable than Silver. Silver is more valuable than Copper but how does any of them compare to the Love of God (coming and going)? You can go to school and become an Anthropologist, or a Doctor, a Lawyer, or an example of countless professions that are possible. Any of these will have a relative value and you can count on a certain return for the work you do. Some will score big and some will just get by BUT... what if you tie your profession to your Love of God? If you are a Botanist then you may well be a Luther Burbank. If you were an inventor, you might be a George Washington Carver. Whatever your vocation, if you combine it with a love of The Ineffable, the outcome will be far different than if you only did it for personal gain.<br />
<br />
Recently, The Ineffable told me that I could go no further on my own. In order to proceed any further I had to wait for him to lead me on. He told me I had accomplished the greatest thing possible for me. I had found him. I immediately, in my mind, began to go over the courses my life had taken and the ways in which I had acted. I said, “I don't understand how I could be deserving of this kind of attention.”<br />
<br />
He said, <i>“visible, that you see your life as a mistake plagued experiment gone wrong is irrelevant. I don't judge you the way you do and certainly not the way the world has, on occasion. You simply loved me more than anything else and that is all that matters to me. This is why I showed up in your life.</i><br />
<br />
<i>“You imagine that you are honored more than you deserve but... it's a numbers game. There are 8 billion people on the planet at this moment. Look at how the majority of them are spending their time. Look carefully at this world you spend so much time commenting on. You are just one of a certain number who expressed love for me to a particular degree. Most everyone else is running around serving their appetites and ambitions, chasing one thing or another but... how many of them are chasing me? How many of them are sincerely chasing me and how many of them persistently keep chasing me after I have thrown a few curve-balls into their life? How many of them relentlessly persisted when I did everything I could to stop them continuing? Now... do you see what I mean? You wound up in that small group that loved me more than anything else and that is how you came to be where there is nothing left for you to do... you found me and now you have only to let me take you the rest of the way.</i><br />
<br />
<i>“You're not happy just accepting this. You feel that there has to be more for you to do. Well... of course you continue to do what you do and you RELY ON ME. You keep me uppermost in your thoughts. You keep your heart and your mind open to my impress because... how are you going to be led otherwise? But seriously, it doesn't matter at this point. I am not fickle. Once I am convinced of someone, I remain convinced and I do not permit them to offend me. They lose all power to do that.</i><br />
<br />
<i>“I want you to go and tell your friends and your readers about this conversation because the same result that has come to pass for you is available to them as well. They have only to persist after me and not give up. These times are like no other times. There is a great deal more latitude to be had in these times and I am more likely to get directly engaged. People are very fortunate to be here in these times, though many do not think so. It is a matter of where their priorities are... 'where your treasure is' and all that. This is why there is so much material excess and so many attractions, to act as distractions for the insincere and otherwise magnetized. (He actually converses in a very colloquial fashion) Everyone is going to get out of life and themselves what they put into it. As you like to tell people, “God is watching.” Oh visible, they have NO IDEA. I am most certainly watching and listening at all times, I know what passes in their minds and I know what lives in their hearts. I cannot be fooled but I can surely be impressed and disappointed. I took on a human persona in order to experience it all just like everyone else. The only difference between us is the degree of attachment. I don't have any.”</i><br />

<br />
Today is Wednesday. According to patterns long in operation, Thursday is scheduled to follow and... Thursday is October 10<sup>th</sup>. This is being billed as a watershed moment. This watershed moment could well turn into a woodshed moment. The out of shape, overweight army, of helicopter dropped (on their heads) Arrested Development, Antifa children, are going to be marching out of the corn, with their scythes and pitchforks. They are organized now (sort of). The Furries and sexual degenerate armies are going to be on the Left Flank. You get <a href="https://nypost.com/2016/05/06/inside-the-life-of-a-furry/">a good sense of Furries from this article</a>. Furries are not hard to understand. It's anonymous and impersonal and even now, when they are gonna persona it, it's still no different than Antifa Thugs in Khmer Rouge outfits, who are also animalized humans; based on their behavior. Climate Change Junkies are arrayed on the Right Flank, preparing to march like Lemmings in search of a cliff, led by their own Soros puppeted, Joan of Arc, Alfred E. Neuman's little sister.<br />
<br />
Given that people of and before a certain age, have no idea of who they are and no real life suffering that might account for some maturity, it's a given that they lack the integrity necessary to be unmasked in word and deed. This way, masked, they can do anything and it's not really them doing it. It is difficult to stand up for principles you don't possess and represent ideals you don't understand. When generations lose their sense of humanity, they become easy prey for that which is not human and the destiny of that Bible verse is sure to come upon them; <i>“Where there is no vision, the people perish.”</i><br />
<br />
I am further reminded of the following;<br />
<br />
<i>“O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.”</i><br />
<br />
<br />
People have all kinds of ideas about what Evil is. Often enough it is no more than anything they don't like. Let me give it a shot... and for that I will refer to Hindu terminology. Just as Western alchemists used Mercury, Sulfur and Salt to stand for the Spirit, Soul and Body, in Hindu understanding, they become the Three Gunas (forces of action) of Sattva, Rajas and Tamas. Sattva is luminous intelligence. Rajas is passion and Tamas is inertia and of the latter, it is also said to be, 'lethargic, violent, dull, destructive, deluded' etc. I'm sure Evil would fit into that lineup nicely. So... one could say that one of the primary origins of Evil is simply 'laziness' and if you think about it, a lot of traditional expressions of Evil come out of laziness; Crime occurs often when people are too lazy to work for a living. Taking the easy way indicates all sorts of undesirable results. I'm not going to go on and on about this. Let's just say laziness is not a good thing. It is probably why Sloth is one of the 7 deadly sins.<br />
<br />
The no longer sheltered offspring of helicopter parents are notoriously lazy. This is how you get people who can't finish college, or find a profession, or maintain an independent lifestyle and wind up living with, or being financially supported by their parents. One <a href="https://nypost.com/2015/01/05/son-allegedly-killed-hedge-funder-dad-after-200-cut-to-his-allowance/">hedge funder was murdered by his trust fund child</a> for cutting his allowance. <b>He was 30 years old!</b> Here's the quote that concludes the article;<br />
<br />
<i>“The handsome Gilbert Jr. — a graduate of the Buckley School on the Upper East Side, Deerfield Academy in western Massachusetts and Princeton — was a fixture on Manhattan’s black-tie society circuit and was often photographed with a beautiful woman on his arm.”</i><br />
<br />
The helicopter children ran into a tragic reality and that is... <b>the world is going to treat you differently than your parents indulged you</b>. This accounts for the attractiveness of Socialism and the idea that everything can be free and that mediocrity is the new standard for humanity.<br />
<br />
Here is <a href="https://pagesix.com/2019/10/09/kristen-stewart-wears-a-bra-as-a-shirt-to-accept-film-festival-award/">one of the icons of the recent generations</a>. Here is <a href="https://thestir.cafemom.com/beauty_style/169964/miley_cyrus_latest_bare_butt">another classy role model</a>. I don't know if the reader is familiar with seminal events like Hot Girl Summer and Meagan Tha Stallion, Cardi B and many another. It doesn't take much research to hear what's being expressed in their lyrics. The same applies to nearly ALL male rappers as well. The more pornographic and disgusting, the better. The more that the feminine principle is debased and reduced to Back Alley Whore, the more you are going to run across it... if you're not careful. These women were 'chosen' for their complete lack of principles and inhibitions, as well as an overpowering lust for fame. Talent was NEVER a factor. The people choosing them have a particular intention in mind and that is to groom everyone with double digit IQ's into behavior similar to that being portrayed. Along with this come the Autism Vaccines, sexual perversity for population control, cultural degeneracy and the introduction of young male refugees from war zones for social chaos.<br />
<br />
I don't comment on or judge what I have not studied and pondered over and... the level of depravity and palpable Satanic presence in Rap is undeniable. Obviously there is a reason that this particular form of entertainment is being promoted. Following my research into the medium, I went looking into 'who' promotes and disseminates it. You come round to the same group of people no matter what, when it come to influencing the human mind into living self destructively. Interestingly, it has come to my attention that a startling amount of rappers are Gay. This is all for the purpose of programming.<br />
<br />
It is not my place to judge what people do, especially since I realize that EVENTUALLY everyone attains Liberation. However... this can and does (on occasion) take millions of incarnations. This is not to say that there are not those who inflexibly insist on doing evil for the sheer joy of it. Even were there those who refuse Salvation and Liberation utterly, they are STILL, at some point, integrated into the whole. As one should know, God sets the parameters and character of both Good and Evil on the relative plane. Who do you think you are praying to when you ask, “and lead us not into temptation”? The Devil is one of God's employees, for the purpose of demonstration.<br />
<br />
My intention is that, where possible, I seek to assist in the divine effort to SPARE human souls from unnecessary torment. One DOES NOT have to suffer for near unimaginable lengths of time. One can, in fact, attain to Liberation in rapid fashion (relatively speaking), should they find themselves empowered with the required intensity to achieve it. For those of a Western perspective, I mention St. Augustine. A study of the lives of the saints can provide profound insights. Yes... the established churches are riddled with terrible offenses against humanity. I am not here to treat with these matters. I am here to say, there is a Way Out; or a Way In... if you prefer. EVERYONE has the right and opportunity to develop a relationship with their author, should they choose to and... should it prove out to be of a greater importance than all the meaningless terrestrial attractions, presently occupying their attention.<br />
<br />
What I am talking about will be of interest to very few but it is, VERY REAL. I have personally experienced what I am talking about and it is of little concern to me whether it is believed by anyone else. I HAVE ONLY TO CONVINCE MYSELF. Of course, I could be deluded AND... in certain areas, I still am but... what I wish to communicate to the reader is that we are living in momentous times; times of astounding possibilities for spiritual advancement and this is precisely because of the intensity of the force of materialism at work. You might say it is a matter of DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY. Should you find Liberation and Realization to be an attractive idea, there are powerful celestial forces awaiting the chance to assist you. This life and all we think is so important to us here, is of no real importance at all ...and it will end when your particular cassette tape runs out. Alternatively, there are planes of existence and portals into them, which are going to present themselves to those with eyes to see them; eyes as yet undulled by perverse appetite and despair.<br />
<br />
I am no one and you are, of course, free to reject out of hand, everything you read here. This is all offered freely and always will be. The only cost to any of us, in respect of realizing Truth and attaining True Freedom, is the effort put into it. Think of it as being like digging into the darkness, until the light is reached. You have no way of knowing how much time and effort may be required but... if you do not quit, you cannot fail. The whole of manifest life is solely for the Purpose of Demonstration. It is here that we learn, should we be so inclined, what to do and what not to do, where to go and where not to go, what to be and what not to be and... the answer to that last is... 'you already are.'<br />
<br />
For so long as we insist on doing anything 'our way', because we have convinced ourselves that it is The Way, it is going to be demonstrated to us that we are operating counter to our own best interests. Within every living thing is a connection to the source of all life. You would not be alive if this were not true because it is The Life in everyone. The sun is the source of all life and we are all Frozen Sunlight; light in extension. There is another spiritual sun that is the source of the physical sun. Emanuel Swedenborg <a href="https://newchristianbiblestudy.org/exposition/translation/divine-love-mongredien/contents/10">had a few things to say about that</a>.<br />
<br />
Swedenborg said that, <i>“the spiritual sun never reaches its zenith”.</i> This is because once it does, it would have to descend. In other words, there is ALWAYS more power in reserve than everything that presently or EVER will exist in the manifest universe. Consider that when you think about the limitless power of God. WE are God's regents on Earth, should we chose to be and should we behave accordingly. WE are the means through which God expresses himself here, should we choose to be. Now consider how it is that you are presently spending your time. It took me a very long time (I don't know but I imagine it is so) to understand certain things. There was, no doubt, terrible suffering involved. Portions of that I have already seen in this life. I do not intend to waste another minute in trivial pursuit and I can only pray that the same will prove true of you.<br />

Dog Poet Transmitting.......<br />
<br />
As many of you know by now, Facebook has banned Smoking Mirrors for violating Community Standards. They didn't say how. This is something I have shown a real talent for through my life. It had been truly upsetting to me that nothing had happened before this; given that they are insidious reptiles who take their marching orders from Mammon and are working, alternatively, for the robotization and destruction of the culture ...and the human race, by LOWERING THE STANDARDS OF HUMAN DIGNITY and portraying us as mindless, appetite driven animals. They have also waged an all out war against Normal and Normal Behavior; working to criminalize the use of words and the portrayal of thought and opinion that goes counter to the transgender lunacy that is being set as New Normal and which is being force-fed into the minds of American (and international) youth through the bankrupt and corrupted education system.<br />
<br />
Cursive writing is no longer taught in 36 states. The ones <a href="https://mycursive.com/the-14-states-that-require-cursive-writing-state-by-state/">where it is taught are all in The South, or right next door</a>. These are the states where Christianity still has a strong presence. Strangely enough, out of the blue, cursive writing is <a href="https://www.today.com/parents/cursive-comeback-handwriting-lessons-return-some-schools-t41081">coming back here and there</a>. This egregious assault on human intelligence is one of the effects of Common Core. What most people probably don't know is that Common Core is the chemical vat-born, demonic brain child of Janet Napolitano. She was also head of Homeland Security under Bwak! Obama, was Governor of Arizona and now runs the Kalifornia Colitch System (into the ground). She's serious Deep State. Here's a little something to give you a brain hummer <a href="https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=80569">about Higher Education in Kalifornia</a>.<br />
<br />
There is an incestuous cluster-humping going on off stage and it involves a bizarre deportment that apparently (logic and reason tell me so) is a REQUIRED feature of being a member of The Satanic Glee Club. Ironically, being able to sing is not a requirement. Aspects of this bizarre deportment include, but are not limited to, Pedophilia, Ritual Child Killing, Consuming the Flesh of Children and killing anyone who gets in their way.<br />
<br />
There are some very heavily financed and politically powerful individuals and organizations that are relentlessly driven toward the suppression of Free Speech and Personal Freedom of Expression. Here is <a href="https://enigmose.com/enigmose_political/gay_mafia.html">an in depth article that names names and ties together portions of the web</a>, upon which the bloated and blood drunk spider of sexual darkness feeds on its victims. This is followed by Part 2 which <a href="https://enigmose.com/enigmose_political/gay_mafia_victims.html">details further on this conspiracy against Normal</a>. You can kid yourself about what's going on but it doesn't change the fact that it is going on. There are <a href="https://www.lukeford.net/essays/contents/homo_mafia.htm">DETAILED exposes on The Velvet Mafia</a> and YES... they are almost exclusively Tribe Members. Here on Page 44 you can find <a href="https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=jdWIRUVZ27wC&lpg=PP1&rview=1&pg=PA44#v=onepage&q&f=false">an incisive work by Mark Ebner on the whole whoop de do</a>. He was blackballed in the industry for years, following the publication of this article. This is a serious work that weaves like a snake through the concealing shrubbery of Reverse Kundalini- Sodomite Land.<br />
<br />
Of course... <a href="http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=195787">the specter of the invulnerable offspring of a nation state, created solely for criminal enterprise</a>, is precipitating more and more into palpable form; set free to act with impunity upon anyone in reach.<br />
<br />
The truth is that it's not only what it is but it has spread out into every area of human expression and one has to tip toe through the land mines these days, to survive to the point where they get heard. Usually you don't and certainly not in the mainstream, which they own entirely or control by indirect means of threats and blackmail. I arranged my life in such a way that these monsters could not take anything from me because I don't have anything to take. Sure... they can slander my reputation but they would have to let me out on one of the main stages in order for me to get a reputation they can slander. Heh heh... so it goes and... Godspeed!<br />
<br />
It is far worse than is being painted or linked to here. These depraved specimens of a corrupted age are as deep into iniquity as it is possible to get. They lack all conscience or restraint. For the moment, they don't see the need for either. A conscience seriously impedes their ability to break every Law of Nature and to act without regard for anything or anyone and... restraint??? Who is around that is in a position to compel restraint from them? So they think ...but... time and circumstance have, changed without their having noticed it, so great is their hubris and delusion. The Apocalypse is upon them as they WILL SOON SEE.<br />
<br />
<br />
God is patient and long-suffering, as God is also resident within the forms of everyone abused by the offenders of our times. Judgment Day approaches.<br />
<br />
<br />
It is difficult for the human mind to find a sense of succor and balance, in the uproar of this transiting age. Every area of life is out of wack. One CANNOT impact on the wider world to any marked degree, unless they have been gifted with rare power or position. Even then, the likelihood of positive outcome is very rare BECAUSE the preponderance of those with great power or position, is decidedly and observably on the dark side. This is going to change in a remarkable way... soon. You see glimmers and flickers of light, breaking through the crystallized shadow. The spiritual dawn approaches, now on the very edge of pending despair, when so many have given up hope, as they see all around them, the mass of humanity, faltering in the murk of the material swamp. Their cellphones buzz like flesh eating locusts. They feed out of fast food troughs. They waddle through wide aisles of endless products, whose ingredient list reads like an Eastern European telephone book. Life has become reality TV on the Walmart channel.<br />
<br />
The largest bandwidth on the internet is pornography, which... strange as it may seem, is owned by the same people who produce all the other entertainments and who control the degree of truth permitted in the media. If you have the brass to say anything (and few do), you are greeted with this.<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0kWAqZxJVE"><span style="font-size: 90%;"><i>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0kWAqZxJVE</i></span></a></div><div align="center"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/D0kWAqZxJVE" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div><br />
<br />
They freely admit it. They <a href="https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2008-dec-19-oe-stein19-story.html">even brag about it</a>. What are you going to do anyway? Even with the truth front and center and also on either side, even with the heavy, unliftable weight of the evidence of <a href="http://lesvisible.net/DOCS/MastersOfDeception.pdf">who did the 9/11 attacks</a>, even with the <a href="https://holocaustdeprogrammingcourse.com/">easily disproved greatest blackmailing fantasy ever committed</a>, it seems to make no difference. Why is this? Manifest existence is a drama. It needs contrast and duality for balance and the necessary tension of light and dark for its moral play. So... in each stretch of recorded history, one people is designated to get the keys to the candy store. This means they can do good and they can also do evil. Depending on the level of integrity in the population (and in them), upon that depends the character demonstrated by the people with the keys to the candy store.<br />
<br />
People have come to their wits end in wonderment as to how it is that out of the same group of people there come both such terrible monsters and such gifted individuals. They got their hands on a magical system that was originally intended to allow one to converse with angels and perform extraordinary acts. Unfortunately, due to the influence of this darkest of all periods of time, the magical system was reversed and used to converse with demons instead and to perform offensive acts against humanity. This is also why, in that criminal nation, blood sacrifices are required on their religious holidays because the deity they serve is an infernal character.<br />
<br />
Not all of the people of this genetic code are evil. There are those among them who do wonderful things but there has been a turn for the worse as we approach the Judis Apocalyptus.<br />
<br />
If... in the world, through indifference, cowardice or reduction of sight, through increase of appetite, the population cannot see what is patently obvious... that is too bad. It is hard to defend yourself against something you can't see, whatever the reason for that might be. For those of us who can, it is clear (to me) we must keep pointing it out. The possibilities always exists that it might prove helpful to have done so.<br />
<br />
<br />
Here is what I do... during this time... on the way to cosmic epiphany. I cast all thought out of my mind, until my mind is empty and all that remains is the author of mind. I maintain a state of not knowing and as a result, I am informed of what I need to know when I need to know it. I pray often. I meditate often. I press down upon my heart that the wine of love may be extruded. I deny all sense of self importance and praise, as often as is possible for me to remember, the Supreme Master of all Life, seen and not seen, here and not here. I read from the works of the great teachers of humanity daily. I watch with care, my every thought, word and deed. I make regular errors and... I correct them immediately, when it is possible, or carry the lesson with me, when it is not. I remind myself constantly that the world around me is a veil of appearances, stretched like a curtain over the everlasting light. I remind myself that appearances are a lie and none of it is real.<br />
<br />
At no time is my motivation to offend anyone. That this will occur, I am certain ...but the chips must fall where they may and the truth spoken, or I could not live with myself. I say nothing that I cannot PROVE and that is why I was able to deny something in the country where I lived for years and where it is a prison sentence to do so and... nothing happened. They prefer to marginalize and ignore me. How much damage can I do with such a limited profile? This is what they think. I agree but I am not the one they need to worry about and he... he is on the way, if not already here, waiting for the opportune moment to declare his presence in the hearts of the willing and the minds of the unwilling. I await that moment with all the Faith, Certitude and Determination I can muster.<br />

<br />
Just about exactly 30 years ago today (having nothing to do with Sgt Pepper) I performed at the 20<sup>th</sup> anniversary of Woodstock Festival. I either went on right before Richie Havens, or right after. I think it was after because I remember him chuckling about what was happening in the crowd when he went on. Then again, this might have happened in a discussion later that night. Details are fuzzy.<br />
<br />
This was a strange affair but talking about it in any complexity would be even stranger so... let's just leave it at, “this was a strange affair”.<br />
<br />
I'd gone there to play but also to help my yogi friend, Ram Tirth, also know as Fred Bloomfield. He's passed on to the blessed spheres last year or so.<br />
<br />
The event was not as well policed as it should have been and so... a rowdy crew of locals from the surrounding countryside; a aggregation of bi-pedal wildlife showed up, thirty or forty of them with a couple large kegs of beer. There was a good sized crowd there already. I was told there was something like 20,000 to 30,000 people but don't quote me because I didn't say that, I got told that. There is a difference and that is what makes it hearsay.<br />
<br />
I kinda, sorta, noticed, as time passed and I waited off stage to go on, that there was something like a mosh pit virus going on in the center of the crowd, which is where the keggers were situated. It was loud anyway and there was a lot of energy and I was preoccupied with what I was going to do when I went on. I hadn't settled on the tunes I was going to play yet. I wanted to see what it all felt like, once I got out there... just me and the guitar.<br />
<br />
So... the time came and I got introduced and I walked out to the mic and got my guitar plugged into the system by a techie. It was pretty loud but I knew I was going to be louder (hopefully) because I had the electronics. I launched into a reggae tune and about halfway through the song, a huge fight broke out in the middle of the field, where the drunken louts had congregated (grin). It looked like there was about three dozen or so individuals, firing on one another, or grappling at ground level. It was a pretty big skirmish and I could see that I had been forgotten for the moment, because all the attention was now directed at the melee.<br />
<br />
I paused then for a short while and considered the real life movie going on about 75 yards away, give or take and then it struck me that I had the perfect song for the moment. I set my guitar into a nearby instrument rack, took the mic out of the stand and walked to the edge of the stage. The stage was about eight to ten feet high. I took a deep breath and in my loudest voice, sang out the word... “Alcohol!” Instantly, for whatever the reason, the crowd, including those brawling, heard me and they stopped what they were doing (true story). With the audience now attentively focused on me singing, I continued the tune, with a small amount of moving like Jagger.<br />
<br />
The song ended and I was greeted with a thunderous applause (true story- grin) and people calling out, “Alcohol” as loud as they could do it. I figured that was the apogee of whatever I was going to get and doing anymore would wreck the moment. So... I thanked the audience and left the stage to the chorus of “Alcohol” that accompanied me back to my friend's vendor location. The fight never did continue after that and at different points people would drop by and thank me for what I did. Furthermore... for the rest of the night and on into the procession to dawn, you would hear someone cry out, “Alcohol” Heh heh. It was definitely an extended Kodak moment.<br />
<br />
I don't know what serendipitous force was at work that night but... it all came together beautifully. Let me be clear here that there was a major brawl taking place and there was every likelihood that this was going to set the tone for the rest of the evening. I went on at 11:00 or so. Meaning we hadn't even gotten to that post midnight phase, where multiple conflicts could well have become the theme of the evening. I didn't think that much of it at the time. I remember how amused I was that people kept shouting “Alcohol” every time a song ended or performers switched.<br />
<br />
Later on I realized that it was something larger than it seemed to be to me, at the time. It was one of those unforgettable things and I know we all have some amount of these, where events happened, one thing led to another and there was a point where whatever it was could have gone in various directions but... by the grace of God, did not.<br />
<br />
As I make it a point to say, whenever the opportunity presents itself, God is a big deal in my life. It is because of events like that and there have been more of them than I can remember. Without a doubt, the ineffable is the reason I am still here, not that here is any great shakes, compared to other environs I have been able to visit now and again, albeit... briefly, but... having been able to continue and continue to learn and adapt out of my crazier states of previous being... it's a big deal and I am grateful beyond measure for it.<br />
<br />
One either goes ever more and more direct toward the Kingdom of the Supreme Being or... one falls ever further and further away from the straight path that leads to the everlasting. Or... one just treads water and there are more than a few of those in these times.<br />
<br />
I want to scream it from the mountain tops. I want to call it out at every space I am passing through but... I do not. It would not be fitting or furthering. It would actually be a negative thing. People don't like being forced, or coerced, brow beaten or intimidated. When one has the conviction of a visceral knowing, that everyone will come to a higher understanding at some point, then one helps as one can, on the way... One also does not think about the profit or cost of anything that may be required of them. You do what you do because it is the right thing to do.<br />
<br />
Perhaps the doomsayers have a point. Maybe there is fruit to be harvested by carrying a sign saying, <i>“Repent, the end is near.”</i> It's a hard call, when you see people suffering and you wish with all your heart that there was something you could do. It is especially hard when it is so clear to you what the cause of their suffering is but... like The Preacher says... <i>“to everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven.”</i><br />
<br />
As hard as it may be, sometimes, to see it, there is an awakening taking place. This awakening can be a grand epiphany that settles your hash once and forever, yes. There is also a process whereby a series of events occur, in a gradual leading into understanding. It seems to me that the best approach is simply to serve as you go. One step follows another and one day... one day...<br />
<br />
Alright... let's get to the song that this whole posting is about- (my friends; Bud the Creep-Bud the Birdman and Franklin Stratosphere assisted in the recording, with Therese McManus rounding out the celebrants)<br />
