Loneliness and hangovers.

There is no questioning the fact that we are separate individuals, as proven by our finger prints and our DNA.

So we can see that our bodies are completely separate.

But, we also know that we are tripartite beings, consisting of mind, body, and soul or spirit.

The separation at the levels of mind is less distinct than at the body level, and at the level of spirit eventually disappears altogether.

Our spirit knows that every 'body' is intertwined with spirit, even though the 'body', or 'mind' may not know.

One of the first emotions created by this spiritual 'togetherness' manifests in the body as loneliness. We realise that our body is separate, but our mind is yearning for some togetherness.

But how can we find a mind that is together with our own, when our own mind is flitting around from subject to subject, hardly ever deeply examining any of them.

A social drug has been in use since time immemorial to solve this problem - it is called alcohol.

The use of alcohol slows down the mind, and thus enables it to stay on one topic long enough for someone else to understand the topic. Then we have a chance of finding a like mind. But don't forget, it's a slow mind, and if through excessive alcohol use it has become accustomed to being slow, then it's not going to be easy to get it to speed up again. More alcohol slows down the mind even more, until, in a very sluggish state, it completely omits the memory function, as discovered during many hangovers when the brain makes repeated attempts to function normally, but fails.

This is the major benefit of internet - it enables like minds to meet in a short period that would otherwise take many lifetimes. Additionally, having once met, these minds are far more able to stay in touch on the material plane, as well as the mental place.

Is this a reasonable explanation of 'kindred spirit'?

What is immoral behaviour?

My theory is that if it is OK for everybody to do what I am about to do, then it is OK for me to do it.

Academics like Kant say the same thing, but take a book to say it.

This is my basis of brotherly love - this is the best idea I have come up with that seems to overcome all problems.

It's so very simple.

If each and every one of us decided that our New Year's resolution was to improve our moral values, then this improved morality would immediately destroy most of the world's ills.

Some humans have failed miserably in their task of evolvement, and they continue to behave like animals.

Reasonable targets for morality were laid out by many leaders over 2000 years ago, yet two millennia later, our own presidents and prime ministers still cannot abide by them.

Which part of "Thou shalt not kill" don't they understand?


Only today a non-spiritual government committed the crime of murder, in the name of some mysterious superior power that hates life. Not only that, but they are extremely proud of their murder, and have spent much time and money in justifying it.

In the eyes of higher morality, one human being causing the death of another human being can never be justified.

But this is not higher morality - this is two thousand year old morality that many souls just haven't understood yet.

The morality that has been learned in the last two thousand years is of a far superior nature than simply "Thou shalt not kill".

We have reached a level of understanding of what works, and what doesn't, and what works best can be easily defined as "be kind".

If everyone just had one quick thought of "Is it kind?" before finalising any decision, then the world would truly be transformed overnight

The Queen's speech/ UN bullion coins.

No doubt better analysts than myself will have stories after Christmas, but I thought I would pen my thoughts.

There were four significant topics in The Queen's Speech, being the Afghanistan War, The British Commonwealth, Christianity and Christmas. The very last word of her speech strongly indicates her disapproval of the politically correct arena.
It is fair to assume that The Queen is privy to far more true information than you or I, and that anything she says is already a part of the plan.

Why is the Commonwealth being pushed? My guess is to attempt to drive a wedge between India and China. With a total population of 1.8 billion, The Commonwealth is one of the largest associations of countries in the world , representing over 30% of the world's population.

The largest single association is the UN, which has just announced that the UN will license the minting of silver and gold bullion coins bearing the UN logo - obviously the introduction of a world currency, with equivalent power going to the Rothschild-owned World Bank.

There is obviously a huge rush towards a world government - which will benefit the world's elite, and not be of benefit to the world's less elite.

Happy new era, when everyone wakes up!

A Converstion with Gaia.

R:"Good morning Gaia, happy birthday. Do you have any problems?"

G:"I am becoming a little disillusioned with parasites."
"I am becoming even more disillusioned by a tail which keeps trying to wag a dog. Parasites are OK to a certain extent - we all had to start somewhere. But when one section of a parasitic species becomes overbearing, to the detriment of the remainder of the species, and subsequently to all other species, then something has to be done for overall survival."

R:"What choices are there?"

G:"There are two options available".

"First, and preferable, is to fix the obvious design faults in the over-bearing species. The second, and less desirable, is to eliminate the species. The possible third option of reducing the numbers of this parasitic species is illogical, because the same design faults will still exist, and reappear. It's either repair, or destroy."

R: "How urgent is this problem?"

G:"I think the urgency can be easily demonstrated by the fact that those who are considered the leaders of the parasites are gathering together to discuss the speed at which it is acceptable to destroy me - they consider this to be an important decision for their future".

R:"So you are saying that we are at a very serious point as far as the longevity of the human race is concerned."

G:"You can say that again. And again. And continue to repeat until those decision makers hear the words.......we are at a very serious point as far as the longevity of the human race is concerned."

R:"Is there any advice you would like to give to the leaders?"

G:"Yes, along with many of those further-seeing parasites who are not listened to, I would like to give some advice to these leaders. Quit eating and annoying me, or you will be extinguished - a terrible decision on my part, but there is too much at stake to allow this to continue."

R:"Do you have anything to say to those humans who do not believe that you are a living, breathing, thinking entity?"

G:"Yes, they are from the blood-line of the race which took three hundred years to believe when told "The Earth is not flat!". They are in serious need of maintenance and repair. There are major problems with their humility, respect and symbiosis generators."

R:"Do you have any advice for those non-leaders planning to go to Copenhagen."

G:"Yes, there is only one reason to go to Copenhagen and that is to be an eye-witness to the mass insanity and to record the identity of those who are the most insane. Then we can institute some sort of rehabilitation program for them. There is no other way possible - this destruction must stop."

R:"Thank you Gaia. We look forward to a further interview at the close of the Copenhagen discussions."

Increasingly bazaar and paranoid

I'm writing this because of my own experience since I first became an Expat, 20 years ago, so I will just mention that my belief system is now the totally opposite to the one I arrived with in Asia.

During this time, I have came across many things that I considered "bazaar and paranoid", but surprisingly, many of them eventually turned out to be true, as proven either by personal experience, or that of close and trusted associates, who provided irrefutable evidence.

The evolutionary situation of our planet is approaching a climax in the very near future, and as it does, change will occur faster and faster. What seems bizarre one day will appear normal the next day, and self evident the day after.

We must be prepared to open our minds, and to drop all those mental barriers that we have carefully constructed to keep ourselves comfortable.
Someone said that life begins at the edge of the comfort zone, and so it will, as our comfort zones gradually diminish until gone.

There are two sides to every story, and in this story there is 'our' side, and 'their' side, where 'they' are the wealthy fat cats in positions of government and control, and 'we' are the rest.

"They" are well aware of the evolutionary situation, and will do anything at all within their power to maintain the status quo - business as usual - I'm-in-charge position. This of course includes lying. So we must be prepared to disbelieve much information that is currently being disseminated by those who "follow the party line" as if it was rock-solid fact.

Then we come to the situation of "Well if what 'they' are telling us is not true, then how do we know what is true?

The answer to that is "Listen to your heart".

We have been informed about the New World Order in several presidential and prime-ministerial speeches, starting with Bush the elder in the late 80s.

But do we know what "The New World Order" is? Those who have read George Orwell's 1984 will have a very good idea.

Firstly, their plan, which you can find in writing if you do some research, involves a colossal population reduction, in the order of 11 out of 12 people or more needing to be disposed of to allow their plan to come to fruition.

I hear cries of paranoia, so I ask you to reread the intro, and to do some research.

As for those remaining half billion people, there are also plans - of slavery.

More bizarre stuff eh?

Look up "The Georgia Guidestones" and examine the photographs, or better still, go there and look for yourself at these huge 20-foot high monuments.

The words on the stones are in four ancient languages, as well as English, and say

1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely - improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion - faith - tradition - and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth - beauty - love - seeking harmony with the infinite.
10. Be not a cancer on the earth - Leave room for nature - Leave room for nature.[3]

This seems innocuous enough to non-maths orientated people, but that number of 500,000,000 is more easily expressed as half-a-billion. That's out of 6.8 billion people alive today - you do the maths.(6.8 - 0.5)

So now you know what plans our governors and world leaders have for us, then you probably need further information, some of which may seem "increasingly bazaar and paranoid", but at least you understand why!

Please let me know if you would like the next episode in this fascinating story.

A message from the Galactic Federation to The New World Order

Dear brothers, We would like to offer our most sincere thanks for the successful efforts that you have made to prepare earthlings for the Great Change. Of course the piddling changes proposed by yourselves, such as formalising your ownership and control of the planet are quite out-trumped by the Laws of The Galactic Federation. The Universal Laws do not allow so few to destroy so many. Most of your plans will be foiled as gradually one piece of technology after another begins to fail during the magnetic field fluctuations (and fluck to you Europeans too!!) of the universe, and similarly every single one of your conniving schemes will be laid open at the feet of the public. The mayhem that you have caused over the centuries, and particularly over the last fifty years does have some entertainment value, but otherwise appears to have had no benefit towards the evolution of the human race. But now the time has come. The planet is about to go through a huge evolutionary upheaval, the size of which will make Niagara Falls appear like a three-year-old boy's wee-wee! This happens from time to time you know, and it usually coincides with a period when the most advanced species has lost respect for the planet, and somehow considers itself to be superior to the planet. Of course that kind of tiny-minded insanity is unsustainable as will be proven within the next twelve hundred days. The belief that humans are superior to nature is as insane as the belief that the earth is flat, but it will take much less time for the realisation than was required for Galileo's ideas to be heard and welcomed. For many members of the human race, consciousness has already expanded to incorporate the necessary understanding for the times following the upheaval. All traditional institutions will have disappeared. The earth will be as virgin territory, with very few people, and very few animals. This will be like a rebirth, and those who have the ability to understand what is happening will be still in the same body, with full and complete memory of the fiasco created by the previous eras of mismanagement. The experiment in governance was obviously a dismal failure, and is therefore unlikely to be repeated again in the future. Many advanced civilisations on other planets have found that small inter- dependent communities of about five hundred inhabitants provides the ideal living environment. These five hundred make their own rules and laws within the guidelines of a much higher morality, which appears naturally once the oppression of a few dominant people on earth has been removed.

Why are these words not in your spell-checker?

If you like this story, you might like to help me circulate it. I don't see how it can harm anyone. Try sending this latest story to your doctor, for example. I'll give you two words that are not in your spell-checker. (with sincere thanks to trufax.org for the use of their most accurate history on the web) The question is: Why are these words not in your spell-checker? The words are 'chakra' and 'permaculture' The latter is a recent word. It has been in use for only twenty seven years, so we can maybe understand how all the spell-checkers and electronic dictionaries missed it. And chakra is a sanskrit word: not many modern word 'things' include sanskrit. Chakra was first written as an English word more than one hundred years ago, and understanding what chakras are and how they function is absolutely fundamental to understanding how the mind, body and spirit interact with each other. Our spiritual specialists, the priests, rabbis, vicars, mullahs and anyone who purports to represent a pathway to divinity never mention chakras. Our psychiatrists and all those who purport to be experts in the mind never mention chakras. Our doctors and nurses and all those who purport to be assisting the human body never mention chakras. How can the English language be so devoid of a word that describes a 5000 year old method of truly understanding the human mind, body and spirit. Is their a hint of conspiracy in the air. If so, this conspiracy must be so huge as to be mid blowing. Impossible! But is it? Let's just theorise for a moment. Let's just imagine that in 1848 someone decided that they would like to take control of the US medical system. And then let's imagine that this someone's family started to make a fortune in oil. Let's imagine that an important member was born into the family in 1839. Now let's imagine that over a twenty year period elite American students of Wundt in Germany return and become heads of psychology departments at Harvard, University of Pennsylvania, Cornell and all major universities and colleges. It would seem to me that by now, the world would be steeped in the Wundt system. Guess what. There are no chakras in the Wundt system! Now let's imagine the proponents of this Wundt system setting up various foundations which conduct all manner of evil experiments, yet the people believe that they are charitable, because they think the Wundt system is the most advanced known to man. It has never been the most advanced system. It has never dealt with the tripartite mind/body/spirit complex in a holistic way. 1890 Andrew Carnegie writes a series of eleven essays called "The Gospel of Wealth", a treatise which essentially stated that free enterprise and capitalism no longer existed in the United States, because he and Rockefeller owned everything, including the government, and that competition was impossible unless they allowed it. Eventually, says Carnegie, the young children will become aware of this and form clandestine organizations to fight against it. Carnegie proposes that men of wealth form a synthetic free enterprise system based on cradle-to-grave schooling. The people who advanced through schooling would be given licenses to lead profitable lives. All licenses are tied to forms of schooling. This way, the entire economy can be controlled and people have a motivation for them to learn what you want them to learn. It also places the minds of all children in the hands of a few social engineers. (German System). And they all lived happily ever after. You know those miracles and psychic healing things that we have all heard about, but are certainly no too sure about. Well how were they done? Right - a detailed knowledge of the chakras makes it possible for anyone to do these things, and if we did have a conspiracy, then the conspirators wouldn't like everyone to know about that, would they?

Why were you born?

A tale of a window cleaner This is a story about ascension. We all want to be the best person we can, to do a little better at this, and maybe do a bit less of that, but just the recognition that this "improvement" is the reason for our being born often brings about huge change in decision making processes. Most of us have spent since the day we were born trying to find out who and what we are, with little success, and so we have tried to follow the guidelines of our forefathers. These guidelines were provided in an attempt to bring a little civilisation to a bunch of barbarians. They are all millennia old, and were never designed to apply to times like today. We should be fifty or a hundred generations beyond all that by now, but for some reason, man's natural progression has been delayed. Is it possible to understand how more than two thousand years have passed, with education now available for most of the planet, yet our leaders still haven't learn the rule that we were taught on the first day we went to school - Thou shalt not kill. Instead of spiritual books, our leaders read military manuals - the Chinese take their life-style guidance from The Art of War, by Sun Tzu, the Americans follow something that crawled out of Fort Benning after Operation Paperclip had taken the cream of the German SS on board, the British follow some strange habits, with the end result being that the hottest news every day is how many of the human race have been killed by other humans. Two thousand years - learned absolutely nothing! But don't despair too much, there is a prick in the gloom ahead. We will follow that tiny glint, just to find out whether it really is a light or some hallucination caused by watching the dot on the TV fade away when we turn it off (do they still do that?), simply because we have no alternative. 1. So let's get moving. It really is dark - although we can see the dot of light, always there, unwavering, we are still stumbling along over ground strewn with huge rocks with the intermittent crevasse awaiting the unwary. We are in total darkness. We haven't crawled far under these conditions before we begin to realise that the terrain changes with our mood. When we are in a good mood, the going is good, but when we are in a bad mood, boy does it get rough. With little else to concentrate on except the pinhole of light ahead, we soon begin to realise just how much of our energy and life had been wasted on laughable trivia. "What brand name of trainers to buy?" is a totally insane question. That last person we argued with deserves a huge apology in the light of these circumstances. There we are, all alone in pitch blackness, with only a pinhole of light to guide our entire existence, when suddenly we meet another human being. Are we going to argue with him? Are we going to want to kill him? He might just be the only other being who knows something about this light. 2.Something seriously awry The previous paragraph clearly demonstrates that there is something seriously awry with human society at this point of planet earth's history. I have been considering this 2012 thing for some time now, and have wandered between belief and disbelief several times. But as I studied more, I found that some things were probably quite true, whereas before they had just been mere theory. The positioning of the planets in relation to each other really does reach an unusual situation on 21st December 2012. What effect this will have is anybodies guess. My guess is that things will be different. All things. Absolutely every single thought that has ever struggled into our minds. (click for explanation of planetary alignment) Dec 21, 2012: the real doomsday by Dan Eden for ViewZone) The totally different perspective available to us will make us aware that most of what we had based our thinking on was false assumption, and hence all the ensuing thinking was invalid too. We know that what we know is wrong, but we don't know what is right. We have reached the classic learning point of conscious incompetence, a huge step forward from our previous stance of unconsciously incompetent. Due to the complexities of the filing systems of tour memory, there is now no way of extracting from our belief system just those thoughts related to the false assumption. The thoughts have become so intertwined that it would need several lifetimes to untangle them. 3. Rebirth into the same body We find that the easiest way is to wipe the slate clean and start again, in a far more orderly fashion. This is known as a rebirth into the same body and is available to anyone with a little help from their friends. The first thing we must do is to destroy the soap box, once and for all. We have no right to try to impose our views on other people - we have no idea which path they were born to walk, so we have no idea what's right or wrong for them - we know only what is right or wrong for us, and the first thing we know is wrong is to impose our own thoughts on others. This doesn't mean that we shouldn't let others know our thoughts - of course we should - what use is a thought if we don't share it? But to expect anyone else to believe the thoughts that we share with them is unhelpful. When we truly share, we also listen to objective discussion, and quite a few erroneous thoughts can be nipped in the bud this way. Some special thoughts prevail, and gain momentum as more people become aware of these thoughts, and find them agreeable. Gradually, the collective consciousness adjusts as more thoughts become acceptable to more people. Now imagine the situation when a discovery is made that almost all of that thought is based on false assumptions. Quite obviously, the vast majority of people will become customers for the men in white coats, and we certainly want to avoid that demise. So it helps if we become familiar with adjustments to our belief system, just to make it easier on ourselves when the big shock arrives. Some of us have had the opportunity to adjust our belief systems quite considerably over the last few years, and we have become familiar with the process - further change isn't so difficult. But for those who have been sticking steadfastly to the same belief system for a few decades, life might become a little difficult, unless some kind of remedial practice is started now. But what about the window cleaner. He was a poor man, and although he had only a short ladder, his entire life view had been formed by staring through ground floor windows. But, after he had saved some money and bought a ladder extension, he was receiving new input from the bedrooms of many houses, and his views on life began to change rapidly. He was far proud of his new ladder-ascension.

Rockefeller Propaganda

This article below is an absolutely perfect example of why everyone is living a lie. The article is promoting milk for school kids, when the real health experts are saying refuse milk. The irony is that those who have been fed powdered milk, or "Formula", as our cousins over the pond would say, might find some benefit in cow's or goat's milk. But almost all those who say that milk can be beneficial insist that the milk is organic, unlike the tainted milk that we receive from inorganically fed cows. When I was a school-kid, I had huge migraines and nosebleeds. At the age of 45 I discovered that this was caused by too much milk. The only species that feeds milk to its young after weaning is man - it just ain't natural. The Asians used to have it right. I read the article below, knowing the information above, so I looked up The Stroke Association. I discovered that the Chairman is Sir Charles George who became Chairman of The Stroke Association on 1 January 2009. Sir Charles also served as Chairman of the Education Committee of the General Medical Council for five years until 1999. He was knighted in 1998 for services to medicine and medical education. His interests extend well beyond medicine as he is also a Fellow of the Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce, a distinction normally found in the Arts Faculty of Universities. Previous positions include Presidency of the BMA, member of the General Medical Council and Medical Director of the British Heart Foundation. This article is a Rockefeller promotion. We know that Rockefeller and his cronies have decided the planet's population must be reduced to less that one billion (5 out of 6 must die by 2012!), so we know what their propaganda is all about. Unfortunately, many dumbed-down people refuse to see just how pervasive this conspiracy is. That causes me to feel sensations of frustration, which I fight hard against. If you are not yet convinced about the pervasiveness, dig a little deeper. Google "milk is bad for you". The first entry is The Nutrition Diva, a wonderful Rockefeller gatekeeper. She witters on about the scarcity of vitamin D, yet never mentions that the main source is sunshine - no money in sunshine! If your not convinced yet then this might help. Today, I read the following:- Dr. Russell Blaylock interview on the Alex Jones Show, January 9, 2009 "Who Created Orthodox Medicine?" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOAyZDd8ekA (Transcript by Jock Doubleday) Dr. Russell Blaylock: Who created orthodox medicine? Where did that come from? Well, it actually came from the Rockefeller Foundation back in 1901. The Rockefeller's at the time, their family, because of the Standard Oil scandals, no one wanted to be called a Rockefeller. Everybody hated all the Rockefeller's. And so his friend, Reverend Gates, went to John D. Rockefeller, Sr. and told him, "Well, here's a way we can repair your reputation." And he gave him a good example. He said, "There was this man who everybody hated . . . and he started giving money out for all sorts of philanthropic enterprises, and soon people forgot all of the bad things. All they remembered was this philanthropy that he was pouring out." So he said, "That's what we need to do with you." So the first thing, because Gates' father was a physician, and John D. Rockefeller's father was a quack snake-oil salesmen, he said, "Let's form the Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research." And so they created this in 1901. And so Rockefeller owned what was called the drug trust: that's the major drug manufacturing firms all over the world: Merck Pharmaceuticals, Lederle, all of these . . . pharmaceutical companies -- Alex Jones: Because the Rockefeller's understood taking over an entire industry and controlling education systems is the key to dominating societies. These are monopoly men. Dr. Russell Blaylock: Right. And he also made himself a lot of money. And that's what Gates pointed out to him. Not only can we present this as philanthropy, but by promoting only drugs and the treatments that you promote as being so-called "orthodox," they'll feed back into the companies that you own. And of course . . . he didn't always directly own companies, he would buy enough shares so that he controlled them. Alex Jones: Yeah, it's very simple for people who don't understand what you're saying. This is all part of the mainline history, it just isn't taught in the mainline textbooks. But it is there for those who want to know. They took over the education system in medicine to then direct the course of it into their own companies. Dr. Russell Blaylock: Right. And the way he took over the medical education system at the time, he hired a person called Abraham Flexner. And he told him, "What we need to do is have you study the medical schools in the United States and write a critique . . ." And of course, the aim was to remove all nutrition, references to nutritional type treatments, from the medical schools. They closed down half the medical schools in the United States. There were 165 medical schools at the time. Well, he closed half of them. Then he had his "anointed" medical schools which he poured his money into, appointed the professors from his own stock of professors. And so they created an educational system that taught the things he wanted taught. And therefore every professor that came out of those programs taught the same things. And so he established an orthodox training system where everybody was saying the same thing. Alex Jones: Yeah, they call it now "standardization. " Just like international bodies fund every county and city and fly around all city managers and social planners, where now all the zoning is the same, or the schools are the same, or the anti-gun message is the same, or the anti-sovereignty message . . . Everything is standardized. And this all goes back to them doing this with banking, and then medicine, and then energy . . . Please continue. Dr. Russell Blaylock: Right. And if you look at the history of it, it all stemmed from Rockefeller. He did this in all of the segments that you discussed, including the municipalities and the cities and villages, so that he controlled their governments as well. He now has absolute control of all of medical care in the United States, as well as moved out into the world. He made it international. Alex Jones: And then when they have control of medicine, they can cover up by compartmentalizing, by giving false data to the doctors, who are compartmentalized, and scientists, they can cover up their eugenics program to make sure that real doctors and scientists never discover it. Correct? Dr. Russell Blaylock: Right. . . . ---------------------------------- http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/8170002.stm Dairy for children 'extends life' Milk Milk is a good source of calcium Children who eat plenty of dairy foods such as milk and cheese can expect to live longer, a study suggests. Some 4,374 UK children from a 1930s study were traced 65 years later by researchers in Bristol and Queensland. They found those who had had high dairy and calcium intakes as children had been protected against stroke and other causes of death, journal Heart reports. Despite dairy containing artery furring fat and cholesterol, high consumption did not raise the heart disease risk. The findings appear to back the practice of giving extra milk to schoolchildren. Protective The study looked at family diets and found higher intakes of both calcium and dairy, predominantly from milk, cut mortality by a quarter. A higher daily intake of calcium, of at least 400mg as found in just over half a pint of milk, cut the chance of dying from stroke by as much as 60%. We need to take a further look to really assess the benefits of milk in reducing the chances of dying from stroke Joanne Murphy of The Stroke Association These beneficial effects were seen at estimated intake levels similar to those currently recommended by experts. Three servings of dairy foods - for example, a 200ml glass of milk, a pot of yogurt and a small piece of cheese - will provide all the calcium most people need each day. Other factors may play a part - though researchers say they took into account that children with the highest dairy intakes came from wealthier families and ate better diets overall - but there is evidence that high calcium intake is good for blood pressure. Balance Prolonged high blood pressure increases the risk of stroke. Dairy consumption may also influence heart and circulation health through a hormone called insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), say the study authors from the UK's University of Bristol and Australia's Queensland Institute of Medical Research. In adults, high circulating levels of IGF-1 are linked with reduced cases of heart failure and heart disease deaths. Joanne Murphy of The Stroke Association said: "This is an interesting study, but we need to take a further look to really assess the benefits of milk in reducing the chances of dying from stroke. "In the meantime, we advise parents to opt for a diet rich in fruit and vegetables and low in saturated fat and salt for the overall health of their children." June Davison, cardiac nurse for the British Heart Foundation said: "It is important to include dairy as part of a balanced diet from the early years. "However, older children and adults should consume low-fat dairy products such as semi-skimmed, 1% or skimmed milk and low-fat yoghurts, which will help keep saturated fat intake low to help protect the heart." Studies investigating a link between cancer and dairy products have not given clear results. Some research shows an increase in the risk of developing cancer, and some shows a decrease.

American Naivety

Two major world events are taking place at the same time. 1 -The CIA, aided by the American press, is doing everything it can to foment unrest in Iran. US funds terror groups to sow chaos in Iran http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/1543798/US-funds-terror-groups-to-sow-chaos-in-Iran.html (A clear explanation of how the CIA works is given by the highest level CIA officer to testify to the Congress about his actions) http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article4068.htm 2 - The Shanghai Group. The meeting in Yekaterinburg, Russia, is designed to work out ways of removing reliance on the American dollar as a world currency. I'm not sure just how much accurate "intelligence" the Americans have, but they MUST know that they are very short of money. They also must know that they are dependent on outside countries to lend them money. Shanghai group leaders open talks http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8099918.stm The Shanghai Co-operation Organisation (SCO) brings together Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. India, Pakistan, Iran and Mongolia later joined as observer members. Iran will be represented by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad himself. So, at the same time that Ahmadinejad is being drawn over he coals by the American press, he is also involved in a discussion about loans to America. I wonder what the outcome of this meeting might be. When the White House realises what it has done, the death throws of America-as-we-knew-it will reach the equivalent of pandemic level 7.

I find the comics even more hilarious today. The declaration of stage eleventeen of the PPP (pig's propaganda program) has caused all sorts of disturbance. For example, this was published today: ".......leader of the Supply Chain Risk Management Practice said: “With the declaration of the pandemic, public and private organizations should seek to finalize, validate, and test their business continuity, supply chain resiliency, and crisis communications plans, so they will be able to cope more effectively with any potential jurisdictional and economic consequences." Nothing about getting the hell out of there. Nothing about deciding where to get our food from, because it is now far too late to start growing it. Nothing about forced vaccination, and concentration camps for the dissidents. Nothing about only three days to survive without potable water. Some may consider the above to be scare tactics, fear, negative, bad vibes or whatever. But I know I would rather be sat in a comfortable little spot in the countryside with a roof over my head and a meagre meal, than to be imprisoned in a city when the lights go out, along with elevators, air conditioning, fuel pumps, internet lines and mobile phones. I suppose it depends on either how much of a gambler we are, or more likely, how lazy we are. But either way, we can at least allow the subject to churn over in our mind once in a while. The drama is accompanied by drums and cymbals as we approach the crescendo of the New World Order plan "An official announcement of the change was due at 6 p.m. Geneva time on Thursday (noon in New York)." So some jerk tells us at an appointed time what we already know, and that is supposed to change everyone's lives. Whoever wrote the corny script for this particular episode of life either has a sense of humour way beyond anything I can imagine, or else believes that everyone is as thick as he is. I will try to get the story down to just seven sentences. If you need explanation, either ask, or do some research on the Internet. Many of the salient points are discussed at http://sites.google.com/site/humanevolution2008/ 1 - The world is controlled by money, and the money is controlled by a small group of bankers, often known as a Wunch*. 2 - The Wunch believes that the world is over-populated, and has a plan to reduce the population by over 80%. 3 - All finance, wars, medicine, education, secret services, mass media and public information services are controlled by The Wunch. 4 - A bunch of people have investigated the wunch, and they have come up with very similar stories - the Wunch does exist, under a variety of names - the Wunch does control everything. 5 - The Wunch has done a stalwart job in suppressing truth, and particularly in suppressing knowledge of innovations that would improve living standards, and thus encourage people to breed more. 6 - A small but ever-growing group has discovered the plot, and are doing their best to let everyone know. 7 Unfortunately, the pervasive mind control provided by TV, Radio, newspapers, movies, mobile phones, computer games, MP3s, music and pharmaceuticals causes many more stubborn individuals to refuse to understand - these are the people who will determine whether the human species continues, or becomes extinct! More explanation if requested. Please either email, or use the comments facility. *It is likely that the Wunch are so named as a wikipedia:spoonerism play on "wunch of bankers."

Did anyone mention "disinformation"?

Did anyone mention "disinformation"? I believe this is a sure sign that the conspirators are being overwhelmed. They no longer have all their ducks in a row. Swine flu 'in decline' in Mexico Swine flu in Mexico, the epicentre of the global outbreak, has peaked, the Mexican health minister says. On the other hand: Texan Doctor claims swine flu cases far worse than reported

A doctor in Texas claims that swine flu cases are at least ten times worse than officials are letting on, and that hospitals are becoming overwhelmed as the virus has already crossed the threshold to be considered a phase 6 global pandemic.

Political flu

A serious epidemic of politicians has come to light, with every country having several hundred people infected. It has been decided that they should all be quarantined for a minimum of five years, during which time the earth's problems are expected to be entirely solved. It is believed that all earth's problems have been created by a disease to which politicians are susceptible. (Corruptus politicanus: A serious disease affecting one on fifteen thousand people in England). It is these mentally-infected people who control the military and secret services which are also known to suffer from a variant of the same disease, displayed by their particularly warped and mischievous symptoms. Let's just try to follow the latest demonstration of insanity, due to corruptus politicanus. Fact A new way of detecting flu was being tested in Mexico by the USAF, and suddenly, totally by surprise, the scientists detected a type of flu that has never been detected before - the deadly H1N1. The process used to detect this type of flu must have been rapidly disseminated to hospitals around the world, otherwise it would be impossible to collect any data at all. There is no way could the doctors have known about H1N1 before March of this year, because the so-called first case has been traced to a little boy in Mexico who spent 3 days in bed in March, and then felt OK. Of the original 80 people who are said to have been affected by swine flu, only one had a mucous sample available - the same 5 year old boy. whose mucous was collected by a new doctor. When interviewed about swine flu, she just laughed. In fact there are no sensible statistics for influenza. It is such a common illness that most people treat themselves, and never become a statistic. Also they very rarely, if ever, die from influenza when self treating. A couple of days in bed, and all's well. It's usually the hospital cases that die. However if we were to just try to guestimate the numbers of people who catch flu, every day, we can see that 80 folk in Mexico is more like a fart in the ocean than an epidemic. But this has become an excuse to continue to use this unproven test, and surprise surprise, flu patients turn up all over the world. A few ways to beat this epidemic: 1)Turn off the TV. You've had quite enough bullshit for one lifetime. 2)Cancel the newspapers. The cost of toilet tissue is more affordable, and far more comfortable. 3)Stay away from hospitals, doctors, and anyone who insists on watching TV 4)Find a beautiful spot somewhere away from the cities, where there is fresh clean water, and some fertile land. 5)Build a simple house, and a simple life, devoid of political pleas for support. 6)Invite a few friends to create their own community with you, with their own rules, but don't call the village Mai Lai. 7)Stay out of the places where people might be infected by a politician's imagination, or with TVitus 8)Contact me after 2012, when your permaculture farm has flourished, and your house is powered by free energy. 

Flying pigs

In an article in The Times Online, just over a year ago (March 21st, 2007). Richard Lloyd Parry told us: "The Japanese government has warned doctors that Tamiflu, the drug being stockpiled around the world as a defence against a bird flu pandemic, should not be prescribed to teenagers for fear that it can lead to bizarre and self-destructive behaviour." "At least 18 Japanese children taking Tamiflu have died as a result of irrational behaviour." So what is happening in USA. Here's an example: "The government said it will release 25 percent of its stockpiles of the flu-fighting drugs Tamiflu and Relenza. Texas governor Rick Perry had previously requested 37,430 doses of Tamiflu be sent to his state from the Strategic National Stockpile." Presumably Mr Perry intends these vaccines to be used, and I would guess that a likely place to administer these concoctions would be in the schools. Can you imagine 37,430 teenagers in Texas with "bizarre and self-destructive behaviour"? No this is not a spoof. This is an accurate example of what the buffoons in charge have in store for us. The USA is not the only country lining Rumsfeld's pockets with Tamiflu profits (via Gilead Sciences) - all G8 countries have stockpiled Tamiflu. So we could be talking worldwide about millions of teenagers acting with "bizarre and self-destructive behaviour." But let's be realistic. Not all of the Tamiflu vaccinations would be given to teenagers. Some older folks would receive Tamiflu too, and everybody knows that "irrational behaviour" ends at age 20! This ironic conduct by the dark side is probably just about as stupid as the buffoons can get prior to the general citizenry wake up to the fact that they have been had. Surely they will wake up soon. They will wake up to discover that: Everybody gets flu, but very few die. The whole theory of vaccination is a complete hoax. Vaccination weakens the immune system when it needs to be strengthened. It is too much coincidence that a drug designed (but which failed) to combat avian flu could be one of only two drugs said to be effective against the latest hoax. And what of the other "flu inhibitor". Relenza is manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline, a British company, chaired by Sir Christopher Gent of whom Wikipedia says "Gent was one of four members of the compensation committee of the board at Lehman Brothers that authorized the payout for its failed CEO, Dick Fuld, considered in 2008 to be the most overpaid CEO with receiving $ 34 m in 2007 and $ 40.5 m in 2006." Yes, another of the companies working for the dark side. I believe there could be a significant benefit from this "pig flu over the cuckoo's nest" scenario. Anyone with an IQ above room temperature will realise exactly what is happening, and this realisation will be the start of a colossal wake-up, the flood tides of which the dark side will not be able to restrain. This could be the significant event that has been predicted to happen soon enough before 2012 to give time for the new culture to settle in, and all the rough edges to be worn off. It must be obvious to most people that the 'modern' culture is on the wrong path, if signalled by nothing other than the well-understood environmental destruction. On the other path, we have many treats waiting for us. Permaculture, to produce more healthy, more nutritious food at lower cost; the commercialisation of already-existing free energy devices, to provide us with free electricity - the revelation of thousands of previously well-held secrets - along with the freedom and happiness that truth and honesty, food and free energy provide. A world of love instead of a world of money. Yes, these flying pigs could be just the answer we have been waiting for.

Your friends need you!

Many of us do not realise that we are at war, and because many don't realise, we are losing. So many people are for some reason unable to accept that they have been led down the garden path. They insist on living in denial about the huge conspiracy that continues to control our lives - as soon as they see the word conspiracy, they switch off. Well now it's time to stay switched on. Our enemies are doing everything to maintain secrecy, so that we have to do some research and thinking before we learn anything. The reason for denial was that we were unable to make the huge changes to the belief system that become necessary once we discovered that we had been living on false foundations. However, when we took a huge stride back, and looked at the logic, we found it easier to accept. Few people refute that, during the times of Queen Victoria, Britain held most of the power in the world, and that Queen Victoria was a major element of that power. No monarch since Queen Victoria has featured quite so prominently. This is because of a decision taken on the death of Queen Victoria. The Aristocrats jointly agreed on the new plan, which was that overt colonialism should be replaced by covert colonialsm. A committee, called the Committee of Three Hundred, was set up to create a merger of business and government interests, and to continue with colonialism to its ultimate conclusion, one world power. This Committee has control of most of the world's money, through government banks, and control of the major industries that use the world's resources. Their major income comes through the control of the $400 billion per year illicit drug distribution industry, and the even larger legal drug industry. Not to mention the oil industry, South Africa's diamonds and gold, and many other aspects of commerce. You might already be saying "Oh! Another bloody conspiracy theory". If you are, then you are proving that the theory is fact. The intensity of insidious mind control techniques practised by The Illuminati/Committee of 300 means that full understanding and defensive techniques are required to avoid them. If you are not in possession of these techniques, and live amongst general society, then the chances are that you are no longer in control of your own mind, although of course you would never believe it. Here's a list of methods which The Illuminati try to use to control our mind, or to prevent it operating efficiently: Government Education processes TV, especially TV news Large circulation newspapers and magazines Internet, especially disinformation Mobile phones - vibrational frequencies Micro wave ovens - vibrational frequencies of food consumed Computer emissions HAARP transmissions Food, water and vaccinations Suppression of any alternative ideas Music and sport Polluted air and there are no doubt many others Here's an example of suppression Testatiker, or Swiss ML convertor Developed by Paul Baumann of the Methernitha movement during the seventies, this free energy device is a marvel that has been in operation for more than twenty years, supplying free electricity to the small self-sufficient Christian community, with no input except the surrounding atmosphere. For another example, try finding Permaculture, or chakra, in standard institutional dictionaries. So now we can see just how easy it is for our mind to be manipulated, especially if we are unaware. So, what do these conspirators plan for us? A One World Government and one-unit monetary system under permanent non-elected hereditary oligarchists who self select from among their numbers in the form of a feudal system as it was in the Middle Ages. In this One World entity, population will be limited by restrictions on the number of children per family, diseases, wars, famines, until 1 billion people who are useful to the ruling class, in areas which will be strictly and clearly defined, remain as the total world population. There will be no middle class, only rulers and servants. Only one religion will be allowed and that will be in the form of a One World Government Church, which has been in existence since 1920 as we shall see. Satanism, Luciferianism and Witchcraft shall he recognized as legitimate One World Government curricula with no private or church schools. All Christian churches have already been subverted and Christianity will be a thing of the past in the One World Government. To induce a state where there is no individual freedom or any concept of liberty surviving, there shall be no such thing as republicanism, sovereignty or rights residing with the people. National pride and racial identity shall be stamped out and in the transition phase it shall be subject to the severest penalties to even mention one's racial origin. Each person shall be fully indoctrinated that he or she is a creature of the One World Government with an identification number clearly marked on their person so as to be readily accessible, which identifying number shall be in the master file of the NATO computer in Brussels, Belgium, subject to instant retrieval by any agency of the One World Government at any time. Marriage shall be outlawed and there shall be no family life as we know it. Free sex shall be mandatory. Pornography shall be promoted and be compulsory showing in every theater of cinema, including homosexual and lesbian pornography. The economic system shall be based upon the ruling oligar-ethical class allowing just enough foods and services to be produced to keep the mass slave labor camps going. Industry is to be totally destroyed along with nuclear powered energy systems. Euthanasia for the terminally ill and the aged shall be compulsory. At least 4 billion "useless eaters" shall be eliminated by the year 2050 by means of limited wars, organized epidemics of fatal rapid-acting diseases and starvation. All essential and non-essential pharmaceutical products, doctors, dentists and health care workers will be registered in the central computer data bank and no medicine or medical care will he prescribed without express permission of regional controllers responsible for each city, town and village. No central bank save the Bank of International Settlement and the World Bank shall be allowed to operate. There shall be no cash or coinage in the hands of the non-elite. Rival factions and groups such as Arabs and Jews and African tribes shall have differences magnified and allowed the wage wars of extermination against each other under the eyes of NATO and U.N. observers. All information services and print media shall be under the control of the One World Government. The voluminous all-pervading and enormous social psychiatry apparatus put in place by the Tavistock Institute and its huge web of related capabilities has been under the control of one single entity, and that entity is still in control as we enter 1992. That single entity, the conspirators' hierarchy, is called THE COMMITTEE OF 300. It is a power structure and a power center that operates far beyond the reach of any single world leader or any government, including the United States govern-ment and its Presidents--as the late John F. Kennedy found out. The Kennedy murder was an operation of the Committee of 300............. This is what is happening right now, with the financial crisis being a part of the plan. We can defeat these monsters if we hang together. If you are not yet sure, please find some time for some serious research. Don't believe me - you must convince yourself, and it's not easy. But continuing in denial is a huge gamble. Advanced knowledge and preparation is far more expedient. I'm still horrified daily by new discoveries, after over ten years of research.

The Loss of Ego

The loss of ego means ceasing to make calculated decisions, with all decision making delegated to the higher self, resulting in higher quality decisions. But it really is a huge letting go. Do we really trust our higher self to make better decisions than our ego. Seems like a stupid question, but it perfectly describes our daily behaviour. We spend much of our time planning for the future, or living in the past, and very little time living in the now. Once we start to live in the now, we completely let go of our past guilt, and our future fears, knowing that our true, non-egotistical self is being well taken care of. Our problem all along has been a lack of confidence, combined with an excess of one-sided training. We have never trusted ourselves enough to just allow things to happen. We have always wanted to be an active part of the happening. We have been trained to make full use of or mind and body. But we have not been trained to make full use of our spirit. So in activating our body and mind to such extremes, we have completely buried the subtle vibrations of the spirit. If only we are able to discover some way to just stop.............. Once we have learned sufficient humility to realise that the body/mind combination is significantly inferior to the body/mind/spirit complex, then we begin to listen to the voice of the spirit. It is the still small voice that berates us when we screw up, and congratulates us when we do well. If we were able to listen to that still small voice all the time, instead of the sound of the MP3/TV/local gossip combination, then we would have a far more satisfying life. I know I do - when I remember!

Who are they?

Who are they? They go under a variety of names, designed to confuse the casual reasearcher, and most of the general public. They are amazingly tenuous in achieving their objectives. Many of them are very famous people. They have set the standards for human culture for well over two hundred years. They have decided what will be included in our education curricula, which diseases we should cure and create, what taxes are paid, the prices of oil and gold, what should be secret and what should be public, and what we believe. They already control our lives almost completely, but most people are not prepared to accept or admit it - which accelerates their rate of success. The intensity of pervasive advertising requires the very strongest of will power to ignore it, and most of the public have not had the opportunity to develop this power. Who are we There are several popular groups on this planet, with the most popular being the most controlled. But for every few hundred that have fallen completely for the illusion, then a few have gained the ability to see through it, or through some of the seven veils. The first veil is red and indicates survival. We have all danced through that one. The second veil is called social, and refers to the relationships between ourselves and our friends and acquaintances. The third veil remains closed for many, as it is the veil of the intellect. Logical reasoning and clear thought are the hallmarks of this veil. The fourth veil is related to love. But this isn't the romantic or sexual "girl meets boy or equivalent" love depicted in today's entertainment arena. This is a love of life. The fifth veil is dedicated to a special thought or thing. We become devoted to this thing and we dedicate our lives to this thought or thing. The sixth veil brings us intuition. We probably gain some psychic abilities such as telepathy, or clairvoyance. And the seventh veil brings us face to face with god - for a brief moment. We have a sudden and immediate understanding of so much more. And we will never forget that 'they' are The Committee! but we are much more!

"The Limits of my Mind"

I came across this short essay, and thought you might be interested. Its called "The Limits of my Mind" Some people are cleverer than me, and some are less clever, but everyone has limits to their mind - my mind is not infinite. The boundary between my mind and my spirit is unclear, with my subconscious having the task of clarifying, and being the translator and negotiator between my mind and my spirit. If I can dig into my sub-conscious, and clear out the pathways that lead towards my spirit, then I can have an infinite mind. Learning this would undoubtedly be a better form of education than sitting on my arse in a classroom with stacks of other kids looking at boring books, and listening to boring people drone on all day. This was in fact not the form of education that was given to our greatest ever teachers. In those days, interested people would gather on some mountain or other, to listen to a wise man speak. A bit like today's rock concerts really! And we all know that a rock concert is far more fun than school. I wonder why it is that these brain-dead adults insist that we all go through this ridiculously pointless torture. The things that we learn at school that are of any benefit to life could easily be learned at home. And while being at home, we would learn far more about life than we would ever learn in fifty years of school. Schools were originally designed to prepare children for adulthood, but now they are used to prepare adults to behave like children. The ridiculous things that the stupid teachers do without ever thinking or noticing the dozen or so signs that the students are showing are worse than visitors to a zoo. Here is the curriculum for teachers next few minutes of speed learning. Teachers. People who can't do, so they teach. Military. A handful of demented people who like playing war games. Terrorists. Secret service in disguise. Medicine. A way of killing you early. Cancer cures have been available for well over 20 years - vaccination is a complete hoax. Schools. A healthy teenager should never be sat on his arse all day - who's running this world? Sport. A way of making sure I don't do much speed learning. Food. A way of delegating the pleasures of food-growing and preparation to some puffs and clowns on the tele. Entertainment. A way of guaranteeing that my spirit and my body never meet. Going to work. Proof that slavery never ended. Reality. Something that other people are unaware off. That's enough speed learning for today. Back to school/work tomorrow! It seems to me that most of the people who relish the idea of making my life's decisions for me, don't consider me very much in their thinking. It is for this reason that I have decided to make my decisions myself and I hereby resign my nationality, and all memberships of any organisations that want to run my life. Up yours!

Secrets, computer security and character traits.

When computers were first built, they were so difficult to get started that no-one was ever concerned about data being stolen. No two computers were completely compatible, so there was no telephone communication between computers and most computers were so slow that a skilful abacus operator could almost beat them. Then as operating systems became more standard, and mass computing began under Windows, there came a problem within the computer industry of companies stealing each other's software. This was the first call for computer security beyond the use of passwords. Now look what we have today. A huge percentage of the world's computing effort is involved with computer security. Why is any of it necessary? What are all these secrets that everybody wants to keep? The simple answer is fear. It starts with the governments, who at some time or other started some kind of secret service, and now it is so huge, and so secret, that it is completely out of control. There are so many branches hiding true information and producing false information, that no-one in the world knows what is true, and what is false. So we have a world full of people, most of whom have a belief system based on the imagination of some computer geek in Langley. It's high time that something was done to put this right. In today's so called civilised world, we shouldn't be squabbling over the last vestiges of the earth's resources, we should be far more united and compassionate than that. We should smooth over these huge barriers between countries, and slowly allow all the border control requirements to subside, and allow the world population to complete is natural migrations. The reasons for one kind of people being in one particular place at one particular time are far beyond the understanding of man, with or without computers and their security. I wonder when it was that computers became deified. Probably quite soon after money. The best thing that can possibly be done with all this stimulus money that the IMF has so miraculously produced from nowhere, is to provide for a comfortable retirement for all secret service operatives, world wide. Then there would be no secrets, and then we wouldn't all have to spend half our lives trying to remember the name of the last dog but two, because we once used it as a password. But here we have an excellent opportunity for a lesson. If we find that there is some information in our computer that we do not want others to know about, then our first question should be "Why don't I want anybody to know about it?". If it's dirty pictures, it's far less obtrusive than last century's piles of Penthouses under every teenagers bed, so why not share them. If it's information about someone else, then aren't you perpetrating what you are afraid of. If it's information about you, then do you feel guilty or embarrassed. Please answer your own questions honestly, and you will soon find the next character trait that needs working on.

Living in real time

When we begin to live in real time, we will often appear to be crazy to those who are still living in dreamland, and actually are crazy. Of course, in real time, time itself has far less significance than it does in dreamland. Vibrations become far more significant than time. We are far more aware of what we feel like.. As the joke in our family used to run - Mother: "I feel like a cup of tea" - Father: "You don't look like one". Of course if we are going with the flow, which is what we are all trying to do, then we need to be aware of several things. The first thing we need to know is which way the flow goes, and the second thing to know is which way we are facing - it might be necessary to turn around. But having got those two fundamentals right, we still have more to do. As we lazily float along in our paradisic world, with time to smell the roses and experience everything that is happening around us, there are various obstacles that seem to be attracted to our position. The floating log that might capsize the boat, the overhanging branch that will be dangerous if we don't keep our heads down, the weather forecast, the lack of food storage, and a wide variety of fears and creations. All creations. Creations of our own mind. We really do underestimate our own magical personalities. We've all heard stories about "You make your own life" but few of us have considered the deepest meaning of that. When we consider what a life is, we realise that it is a series of decisions, with linking actions. We make decisions hundreds of time per day. What shall I have for dinner, who can I call now, What shall I wear - non-stop decisions. If any one decision goes one way instead of the other, then a portion of our life will have a different experience. As a result, we are never the same person again. Every single decision is literally vital. How much sugar in my coffee, shall I play with the kids, I must get some peace and quiet, I'm hungry, what time is it? It never stops. We never stop building our lives. If we want a better life, it is very easy. All we have to do is to make better decisions. And to do that all we have to do is to become better informed. Being better informed makes for better decisions. The better our decisions, the better our life becomes. So we have to gain several steps in increased ability. 1 - the ability to make decisions. 2 - the ability to critically observe the results of our decisions, in order that we may improve our decision making. (Most people are stuck on this bit). We decide to do something, and something unexpected happens, and we never relate the two, so we never learn. We have to gain the ability to observe the results of our decisions. And that is not easy, and learning this grows into a very self-critical and self-advancing process. Just to learn to regularly ask ourselves: "Is what I am about to do or say kind and helpful? Is this being done out of love?" and then making our decision, we will invariably find that our lives takes a turn for the better. It's only natural for it to do so.

This is taken from someone else's blog She says it so much more eloquently than I could.

COLLAPSE PSYCHOSIS: NAVIGATING THE MADNESS, By Carolyn Baker

Sunday, 05 April 2009

It's happening daily now, almost hourly-rampant eruptions of violence throughout the so-called developed world. As civilization unravels, the uncivilized behavior of humans is becoming viral, and the culture of empire is quite simply going mad as its values, assumptions, and reasons for existing are evaporating with dizzying speed. For those who are and have been collapse-aware for some time, it is important not only to make sense of the epidemic violence, but to incorporate skillful responses to it.

First, I believe we need to deeply discern what is actually happening psychologically. The current outbreaks of violence are about more than unemployment and financial stressors. Yes, job loss, bankruptcy, foreclosure, homelessness, and loss of health care are breaking people and communities in pieces. Yet something even more fundamental is seething beneath the surface--something of which these losses are symptomatic.

Underlying the chaos is the reality of civilization's dissolution. But what does that actually mean?

For one thing, it means that civilization has been inherently infantilizing. It teaches its members that their reason for existing on earth is to consume-that they have absolutely no other meaning or purpose but to produce money in order to spend it and thereby incessantly oil the machinery of maniacal, unrestrained growth. A world view of this kind can only result in a culture that has virtually no inner life-a culture in which one's reason for being lies entirely outside of oneself. We're not talking compassion or altruism here as in mindfulness of the well being of others. That results only from a highly developed inner life that understands that consuming is a miniscule aspect of life based on fundamental survival needs and that is willing to put even survival needs on the back burner in order to support other members of the earth community.

Empire, which I use synonymously with civilization, is all about keeping the focus external to oneself for the purpose of enhancing the well being of a few dominant individuals in a strictly prescribed hierarchical system which encompasses all of the culture's institutions. From birth, citizens of empire are taught to serve that system by way of education, career choices, work, marriage, family, home ownership, political participation, and religion. When citizens reach a certain age, they are thrown away by the culture because they no longer have value in perpetuating the system but now require service from the system. Until that time, throughout adult life, one's primary identity is that of a producer who willingly focuses above all else on working, consuming, and paying taxes. Any other role the producer has-parent, spouse, volunteer-must be secondary to the role of worker/consumer/taxpayer. Naturally, to maintain the level of growth the ruling elite of the culture believe is necessary, a certain level of production/consumption is required. I hasten to add that as I use the word "producer", I'm not referring to producing anything sustainable, but rather the production of whatever is of value to the system which that system compensates in the form of money which then, by way of the system, becomes debt.

Citizens of empire are taught that the total abdication of inner life on behalf of decades of servitude to the needs of the external hierarchical machine is not only normal and natural, but their fundamental duty as human beings. In other words, traversing any other path than this one is synonymous with "failure", "ingratitude", "slothfulness", even "treason." Nowhere is this more exquisitely depicted, in my opinion, than in the recent film "Revolutionary Road" by actors Kate Winslet and Leonardo De Caprio.

Moreover, citizens are constantly rewarded for refusing to question these assumptions. To question would be to demonstrate disturbing symptoms of adulthood. Empire needs infantile servility in order to perpetuate itself indefinitely.

The psyches, then, of empire's citizens are ill-equipped to deal with variation from the system's proscribed roles or functions. Empire, like a "good" parent, gives one everything one "needs" in return for production-until it doesn't, and when it doesn't, the citizen has no recourse emotionally because he/she has lived in psychological symbiosis with empire since birth. Does this sound like the relationship between an abuse victim and the abuser?

"I've been used!", cries the abused, having believed that to keep quiet and play by the rules would be better than breaking silence. But we have only to ask the currently unemployed, homeless, foreclosed upon, and bankrupt how well credit scores and paying their bills on time served them.

So now it becomes clearer to us what is happening in the psyches of millions of individuals who are losing their roles in the imperial system-and in the psyches of those who are not. The entire culture is under unprecedented stress, except perhaps for those old enough to have lived through the Great Depression. On some level, many of them "grew up" and stopped being infants during their ordeal. The 1930s in America was an enormous initiation which they moved through and became wiser and more authentically adult for having done so. This is not to say that every person now alive who lived through the Great Depression is a paragon of wizened maturity, but rather to notice that their survival of it has informed their behavior and attitudes since and actually equipped many of them to face the current crisis more skillfully than younger generations.

As for those in the present moment who have jobs, homes, and healthcare, they realize on some level how precarious their position is. They have these things now, but it's only a matter of time until they may not. And consciously or unconsciously, this is creating gargantuan levels of stress among "more fortunate" Americans.

But none of this is likely to be new information for those reading this article, and you may be wondering much more about the second half of the title than the first. Before addressing that, however, I believe that it's important to understand that the current epidemic of violence is likely to become far more severe and widespread. Understanding why it's happening is crucial, but if you have a beating heart, you have to be concerned about when and where it's going to erupt next. You also need to understand that as the violence exacerbates, more individuals and groups will be perceived as scapegoats. Currently, in France, CEO's are being taken hostage as they are experienced as the primary culprits of that nation's economic crisis. In the United States, we are likely to see as we did in Binghamton, New York this past week, the targeting of immigrant groups-even by other immigrants, or just intensifying family or random violence.

Some collapse-aware individuals have chosen to purchase weapons for protection. In a culture gone mad, it's debatable how much protection firearms can actually offer, but if it feels right to do so, in my opinion, one should respect that and act accordingly.

Dialog at this point is still an enormously important option, especially as we interact with folks who've been telling us for years that we are lunatics for preparing for collapse. In fact, the timing couldn't be better for these kinds of conversations, but we need to maintain an innocent, open attitude, not one of "I told you so", as much as some part of us might wish project it.

Equally vital and life-supporting is our involvement in community efforts such as Transition Town and relocalization groups which offer us the opportunity to take local action, develop deep connections, and delight in the healing energy of validation and support from our peers. I believe that as cultural violence spreads in reaction to the trauma of collapse, these groups will be forced to strategize methods for looking out for each other's well being. Dmitry Orlov has a great deal to say about this in Re-Inventing Collapse which I highly recommend reading.

Shamelessly, I must recommend my book Sacred Demise: Walking The Spiritual Path of Industrial Civilization's Collapse which is not primarily a book of information, but contains at the end of nearly every chapter, experiential exercises that both individuals and groups can engage in and which could be very useful in alleviating stress and promoting understanding.

I wrote Sacred Demise specifically to offer the kind of introspection in the face of collapse that is going to be crucial for all of us in order to navigate it emotionally and spiritually. Empire has stolen so much of the inner world from us, and in order to make sense of the turbulent unraveling, we must reclaim our interiority. John Michael Greer brilliantly titled his recent review of my book, "Facing Decline, Facing Ourselves." In truth, we cannot face one without facing the other, for only both in tandem will allow us to navigate the madness.
