- So many of us are feeling reduced to quietly observing
the exponentially explosive chain reaction of mass insanity with
increasingly
heavy hearts. The dank fog of fear surrounding all forms of protest has
already succeeded in muffling the voices of a number of previously
enthusiastic
activists. This sudden social climate change signifies the onset of a
chilling nuclear winter rapidly overtaking the land of the free and the
home of the brave . Overnight, we find ourselves merely free to agree,
or be seen as traitors to a simpleminded and heavy-handed national cause.
Yet nothing in this unfolding sequence of mindless reactions-at-large is
particularly surprising. For all those who are reasonably free of mass
cultural programming, it is easy to understand that this global nightmare
has been long in the making, and has a terrible inevitability about it.
Considering humanity s past, and considering humanity s collective level
of awareness: what else could have happened? And at the same time we know
that, in another way, the world madness in progress has been resolutely
conjured out of thin air. The predicament we find ourselves in exists
for no other reason than that the human race has been deliberately
conditioned
to just such an end.
-
- We are witnessing the gruesome culmination of generations
of carefully applied external manipulations, focused on shaping our
emotional
reactions to our belief systems. Belief is the most easily harnessed
energy in the human mechanism, and until we begin to see who manipulates
our deepest beliefs, and why, we are silly putty in the hands of darkness.
Generation after generation, those whose business it is to retard human
evolution bring to bear the most powerful and subtle forces of social
engineering on us all, from birth onwards. As a result, most human beings
reach adulthood having internalizing unquestioned belief in the
superiority
of their own version of disparate political systems, religions, tribes,
races, and nations. This constitutes a deliberately fabricated schism
at the basic level of human existence. And from this fundamental lever,
applied at the deepest point of human life, all manner of evil stealthily
arises and invisibly stretches forth its tentacles.
-
- We are hypnotized from birth into accepting interminable
variations on a stunningly simple lie. From this single twisted
misconception,
entire worlds of complicated evil grow. On every level, from the personal
to the national to the international, this same basic error invests human
emotion and thought: If I am right, then you are wrong. If my way is
right, then your way is wrong. If my religion is true, then yours is
false. My country is good; therefore yours is bad. Mankind is being
carefully kept on this crudest level of misunderstanding about the nature
of reality, and of belief itself. Just as the physical landscape of the
planet derives its beauty from exquisite variation, so does the human
race. Monoculture on any level is a false stasis and leads directly to
disease and death. The health of nature depends on and delights in endless
variations on basic themes, and this is as true in human nature as it
is in the other kingdoms. It is no accident that almost all people are
raised to view the natural proliferation of differences as threatening
and hateful. There is endless profit to be made from causing such a fatal
lie to take root in the consciousness of the human race. Divide us at the
core, indoctrinate us into fearing the most wonderful quality we have
to offer, and you have a juicy species traumatized at the very heart of
itself, and therefore ripe for endlessly repeated plucking.
-
- The human race has been here for quite some time now,
scattered across the surface of our beautifully balanced whirling top.
And all along, carried on the back of this enigmatic sphere, cycling
majestically through the empyrean, we ve been looking around and thinking
it over. In doing so, an astonishing variety of ideas and beliefs about
what all this means have arisen and flourished throughout human history.
This is a fact. And the sheer number of vastly different human belief
systems
tells us something crucial. It tells us that almost everyone believes
in some kind of invisible power behind the material scenery. To stretch
out our minds beyond our small selves, to reach toward a greater truth,
and to form beliefs about all this is as natural to us as breathing.
Hardwired
into the human brain is the necessity to search for greater truth. And
this is why it is the nature of belief itself that has been methodically
used to manipulate us into endless divisiveness, hatred and wars. Belief
is the foundation of life for the majority of the human race, no matter
what forms it may take.
-
- And that s it. That is nearly all we have completely
in common as far as our personal political, ethical, existential,
religious
and spiritual convictions go. We mostly agree that the Creator and/or
the Creation is good, and that we humans didn t create ourselves, or the
planets, or the solar system, or the billions of galaxies receding into
infinity all around us. We agree, as a species, on little else when it
comes to the details of anything at all, let alone religion and the higher
realities. This is the basic fact of our lives. The great secret of
the human race is that we contain the seeds of divine powers, and this
is what threatens the forces of darkness in the universe. Our evolution
in consciousness has been forcibly derailed and detained, time and again,
throughout our history. And now we have reached the point where our
inability
to thrive on differences, combined with technological weapons of mass
destruction, has led us to the outskirts of annihilation. We needed to
become far more conscious than we are, and now we are stuck with facing
physical, emotional and mental chaos devoid of sufficient collective
awareness
to deal with it wisely. Each of us at the very least has a slightly
different
perspective on reality, and at most, we may disagree about everything.
But that we should experience this as a problem requiring mutual murder
has been an idea cunningly and successfully nurtured in order to prevent
us from understanding our essential unity. Because if we experienced the
spiritual fact of our basic unity in any large numbers, then and there
the long reign of the forces of darkness on this planet would come to
an abrupt end. Only by the ancient method of divide and conquer can we
be prevented from entering into the awareness of our spiritual
destiny.
-
- So here we are. We are actually capable of imagining
ourselves to be grownups, even as we kill each other more and more
cleverly
and in larger and larger numbers. We indulge ourselves in boastful and
deadly inter-species primate displays, brandishing banners of low-grade
rhetoric. The human mouthpieces of the various types of insanity
manifesting
on earth right now all act as if vainglorious language can disguise the
ridiculously primitive level of our behavior. Perhaps nowhere is this
so excruciatingly, tragically absurd than in our ability to use our
various
religions as a weapon against others. We do not listen even to common
sense in this regard, let alone higher wisdom. We have allowed ourselves
to be manipulated into accepting endless religious strife as some sort
of naturally occurring event. Yet we have been blessed from the beginning
with the limitless gift of individualization, and are not a hive, a flock
or a herd in complete thrall to a mass shared mind. This treasured
invaluable
individuality allows for each human being to exist as a separate and
potentially
free agent. And even so, despite the obvious relation between freedom
and inevitable differentiation, we still Hate for God s Sake. Nothing ever
was or ever will be more pitiably absurd than this fundamental folly.
Oh, but it is so very profitable to those who feed off the subjective
unconscious energies of the human race. And they will do everything
inhumanly
possible to enforce our continued passionate adherence to this most
powerful
of all delusions.
-
- Therefore our little planet here is temporarily boiling
over again with heated-up bipeds waving the black magic wand of pointless
mass death. To the funeral march of hysterical sloganeering, all over
the world, forces are waving bits of cloth and chanting death mantras
before the maddened bull of mass consciousness. The unthinking levels
of reactionary patriotism and religion have begun to break out
uncontrollably.
What do those who love humanity and wish it well do at a time like this?
We can only try to point out that when humanity suffers, there are those
behind the scenes who always reap the benefit. We know something about
who is really going to profit from this chaos: out of the present carnage,
there are great fortunes to be made and delicious worldly powers of many
kinds to be consolidated.
-
- It s not only religion, of course, that inspires the
worst of our behavior towards one another. Any belief system will serve
to galvanize the ego into despising others. No matter what combination
of beliefs anyone has, about anything at all, these will serve as a basis
for loathing others of unlike mind. What this says about us is that we
are still so childish we can t face the obvious: which is that our
personal
belief system is not the beginning and end of universal realities. This
fact is more threatening and deranging to undeveloped human spirits than
any other. We fearfully imagine we will lose our minds and souls merely
by recognizing that belief is somewhat personal and somewhat limited,
like everything else we have, are, and do. It takes serious and sustained
effort these days not to become at least mildly acquainted with a large
number of people outside our own little personal worlds. And it is
becoming
exceedingly hard to ignore the fact that there are likable and interesting
people adhering to belief systems other than one s own. Likewise, within
our own chosen belief-circle, we will no doubt notice a certain number
of unpleasant, underdeveloped humans. This is just the way it is. Yet as
long as we are capable of caring first about the belief system, and only
secondarily about the quality of the human being, we are being divided
and conquered by the forces of hate and darkness.
-
- These interminable human belief wars are deliberately
created and sustained, dutifully serving a very dark purpose for those
who wish to control this planet and keep stupefied all who live here. So
long as we are easily diverted into religious wars, and endless struggles
for other types of internecine belief-supremacy, we will not be noticing
who is causing and fomenting all this behind the scenes of our earthly
institutions. We won t be observing who benefits from all this directed
hate and mayhem. We won t be tearing the veil away to take note of what
groups and what forces are promoting and encouraging human divisiveness.
While we are busy, nicely distracted into loathing one another wholesale,
in the name of God and of all our other basic beliefs, the forces of
global
totalitarianism sit back and smile. They believe in nothing at all, except
the single goal of our standardization, degradation, and enslavement.
They are undivided. They have no other aim except the domination of the
human species, and to quench all sparks of individual freedom once and
for all. And their genius is in using religious differences, economic
differences,
political differences, and social, cultural, and national differences
for their own ends. Their technique is to strike these discordant notes
whenever possible, and to amplify each sour chord until hapless humans
mechanically dance in mass step to their orchestrated tunes. They are
experts at slyly manipulating and encouraging us to hate each other, in
every possible way, while they are quietly, secretly and openly,
dismembering
the human race and feasting on the twitching remains.
-
- The ultimate cause of war framed as a religious activity
is the absence of the awareness of God in the heart of the human race.
The primary tool of terrorism per se is the near-ubiquitous presence in
human hearts and minds of the abysmal force of hatred. This perpetuates
itself through the self-righteous, self-justifying cooperation, to one
degree or another, of the majority of human beings. Once these forces
of accumulated hatred erupt, and physical warfare is set in motion, the
unfolding battle is inevitably, obviously, difficult to bring to a halt.
People caught up in the immediate physical struggle to survive have little
leisure for or interest in contemplating the deeper origins of their
situation.
Yet whoever is not thrust into such a brutal level does have the time
and responsibility to consider the deeper meanings of our collective
predicament.
While outward battles rage, each of us more or less on the sidelines might
do well to ask of our own conscience whether or not we are contributing
in the slightest way to the vast general pool of human hatred. There will
never be any real freedom or peace on earth without such painfully honest
self-questioning. Because, in reality, there are very few of us who are
not at least occasionally puppets in the hands of hate. Most of us are
still aggressively angry at times, and quite enjoy that hot little surge
of accompanying hate.
-
- Technically therefore, almost all of us perpetuate some
degree of emotional or mental terrorism against others, even if well
within
the dismally low standards of socially acceptable limits. And the ones
who deny this with the greatest fanfare of self-righteous anger are, of
course, the worst offenders. God is Love. There is no getting around this
highest truth. We can and do lie to ourselves and to others about the
real names of the forces we allow to run rampant now and again through
our beings. But the truth of God as the embodiment of impersonal Love
remains forever unmoved by our fear of it. And eventually, if we have
the spiritual courage to let it, this truth may set us free. Since
impersonal
and all-encompassing Divine Love is the only reality that can ever unite
the disparate little paths of human beings, the human species is facing
a starkly clear choice. Either figure out what it means to love one
another,
or die.
