MediaLens.org hosts a forum - I just had a look - and to a
thread on the idea of 'conspiracy theory' wrote the following:
- - -
Motivations can be analysed - but not without involving the bias of
one's own. The polarisation of perceptions operates war, as the
breakdown of communication to the operation of defence as each facet of
any struggle in terms of its perceived identification.
For beneath any such intention and act is the self-definition operating.
Everyone
always acts in any situation toward that which they define and believe
is closer to their pleasure and away from what they define and believe
in that situation to bring pain. The key phrase in the sentence is
define and believe.
True freedom operates at the creative level
of awareness. Whatever we accept as self definition and choose to
believe by reacting from such definition, automatically generates
perceptions and interpretations and behaviours in accord with such
premises.
Anything believed and accepted 'self' will be protected
with all the facility of will and strategy against what is perceived
and interpreted 'threat'.
Divide and rule is
associated with a tyrannous or coercive intent, but it begins firstly
within our own consciousness. A split mind is a fearfully defined sense
of self conceived as defence within an intolerable pain of
self-contradiction. It renders the core issue unconscious by the
coercive and active assertion of psychological defences.
This
picture of human consciousness as generally accepted, traded and
operating as currency, is an overlay or mask that could be called a
tacit and pervasive conspiracy to deny and suppress the exposure of
one's own loveless or hollow mask by maintaining a busyness of focus
away from Consciousness as Presence and upon the world of projected
fears and even constructed enemies. For the fearfully identified mask is
effectively running away from itself by using its own consciousness and
the world-perception of a distorted consciousness, as a screen on which
to escape a pervasive pain and validate a personal agenda.
Insofar
as psychological discovery can be weaponized, it will be embraced by a
fearful identity to generate subtler and more insidious forms of
disguise and persuasion for prevailing or at least persisting in power
struggle. For its primary identity dictates fearful struggle to prevail
and survive against a 'hostile world'.
War demands the active denial of truth excepting in tokenism of exceptions of strategic advantage. War justifies any means to gain the ends that fear justifies.
A
pervasive fearfully defined and joyless society automatically operates a
conspiracy against exposure - excepting in subverting such exposures to
generate its own agenda of power, of market and mind share, of
self-reinforcement. The split operates in innumerable forms but is
essentially that of sacrificing, giving up or depreciating one's true
power as Consciousness to externally defined 'solutions' that tend never
to resolve the issue, but disguise it in more complex forms of
dependence upon external 'authority', in which illusion of
self-specialness or illusion of freedom may be promised but cannot
deliver, because one's true presence Is freedom - BUT for the accepting
and engaging in self-definitions that are out of true and which generate
fear, and split the mind to operate a masked existence, blind to the
heart's knowing.
Fear would always frame our choices in such a
way as to deny our true freedom. The very tricks and devices that a
fearfully manipulative agenda are so audaciously employing to its
conditioned 'mind-share' illuminate the pervasive split-minded
consciousness that runs like a botnet of fear-feeding consciousness that
has in a sense been hacked through lack of true worth and vigilance.
What
we accept into our mind is given our power. To accept beliefs that are
NOT true of us, dis-integrates or splits off a segregated and
segregative consciousness that does works as tares among the harvest.
The personalizing of conflicts is the masking into terms that ensure the
issue itself will not be exposed or addressed. Any 'personae' will be
willingly sacrificed for the sake of the core agenda, and the charge
neutralized so that it can not only reassert itself without challenge,
but absorb and grow in its multi threaded subversion of all forms of
challenge and resistance so as to maintain an appearance or mask of
'acceptability', where such a mask is still strategically deemed necessary.
I
wrote this to remind and reflect that we not only have choice but are
always operating as choice, whether as an integrative consciousness in
freedom to be truly ourselves, or in terms dictated and defined by fears
we may not even realize are operating our mind - in our name.
Although
there may well be innumerable struggles of an external nature through
which consciousness wakes up to Its true nature, I simply offer the
reflection that the shift from fear to a true freedom of creative
endeavour, must rise from a willingness to recognize and own our fears
truly - no matter how much our fear of fear seeks to turn our eyes away.
No
one can change that which they have not first owned - even momentarily -
for the recognition of holding pain in our heart does not naturally
keep holding it another moment! How much less can we change in others
what we insist on denying in our self?
If you have a 99% case and
bring in 1% of a coercive agenda, the other will detect it immediately
and focus upon it to invalidate all else you offer.
Desiring to
communicate without hidden appeals of self-specialness or self
righteousness, that usually derive from hating or denigrating another,
unsubscribes from the manipulative parlance of fear's botnet, extending a
light of true witness.
The use of fear for coercive identity
operates in darkness. It may attempt to bring illusions of light into
itself to feed upon, and to subvert communication, but it cannot abide
in light.
The opening of fear to the light of a true awareness is the yielding of a false and life-denying sense of personal power for a true foundation.
Everything
expresses its foundation. Using fear as a foundation does not bring
forth love or joy in harmony of purpose. It brings forth substitutes for
these things to mask what lies beneath.
True foundation
restores true perspective and therefore choices and opportunities that
are truly integrative and which can see deceits without being baited by
them and see past them to the fear in others that operates blindly
without knowing what safety is - because they do not know who they are
or they would fear not!
Whether anyone receives your
communication or not, your giving is what absolutely determines your
receiving - that is your awareness of the nature and quality of your
true existence. Withholding our presence has been to worship judgement
and become addicted or enslaved to the world it brings forth. The mind
of divide and rule has no true foundation. The choice for self-power in
darkness is on the table for a new era. I believe we all are making a
conscious choice and am wholly desiring that this be so - and so I
witness to that it is a choice that does not have to be chosen.
The
willingness - even momentary - for refusing the 'gift of fear' is what
invites and allows a reintegrating perspective. One step at a time, as
an unfoldment of truly embracing Life.
Joining in hate is no intimacy whatsoever. Being truly touched by your own recognition IS.
When I typed 'desiring to communicate' I first chose the word learning but typed 'leaning'.
Leaning actively and consistently as an expression of true desire is transformational.
But reactively conforming and aligning with fear agenda is simply more of the same - albeit with a makeover.
I write this in one form or another over and over - but always new. The Consciousness beneath the issue is the door we do or do not choose to walk through.
