A few things of greater reflection:

The Corona scare is founded upon the unsubstantiated modern belief in the germ theory. This theory, which is challenged by only some scientists remains at large the item of belief by establishments of scientists (which is a contemporary church), also those who do not go along with the Corona scare.

The scare is also founded upon the worship of science, technology and the economy, of which the whole society including the opposition takes part. Altogether, the worship of materialism, a society without greater values.

The scare is also founded upon the democratic worship of news, in the context of politicization of the masses. News and politicization provides a false reality, aside of the false realities of Corona scare and climate change scare. Global distribution of false realities is made possible by means of the worship of technology in combination with democratic obsession with the false realities which are provided by all news media.

If you think of society as a body, a collective of cells, the conditions as described above makes it easy to spread fear, hysteria and psychosis globally. Such as Corona scare, 9-11, but also series of smaller ones, but at large twentieth century and current century society is and was already delusional, living in fantasy and hyped realities all the time due to these conditions. It is the democratic-technological delusion, the contagion of the minds of the politicized democratic masses, empowered by technology, which is then distributed on such a scale that hardly any man remains unaffected by these mass mind delusions.

Added to the above, the occupations and concerns of all dominating mass man are always these of a low type, or at best basic necessities of life, ultimately Corona scare is based upon the dominance of such low types of occupations. Because of this statistic average, elites are able to ultimately reduce things to the lowest and most dysfunctional of all, which is fear. Fear and all forms of hate, from gross to refined, being the most common to people at large, elites can easily, empowered by technology, cause global storms of it.

As said, hardly any individual can fully escape this psychological reality of all dominating mass man, in as far as he is a man among man, sharing the same qualities, being dependent in the same way. Though, it must be obvious that the cure is to avoid this reality of mass man, to avoid too much affectation by means of developing your individual and higher qualities, and to focus on your individual interests, do not let contemporary average mass man’s occupations overrun your individuality.

My Reply to John

Yes there is a way of seeing a script that plays out of its own conditions or predicates.

I see an inversion of truth and so there is truth ‘hidden’ in the very attempt to deny, usurp or replace it – that serves the waking from the script to the point of release from subjection to its definitions. But not to the capacity to fight or change the script. (Which is the predicate of the script; to fight itself). Rather we open to a Script of awakening as the willingness and capacity to recognise and align in what a separating lockdown of a masking script would cover over and hide in.

John in reply to me

The mask is a symbol of anonymity and lack of individuality of the masses, fear being a collective trait which has its cause outside of the conscious will. The media being a product of the masses can only appeal to low types of collective traits, which are predominantly negative.

Added to the above, the oppositional or ‘alternative’ media, they mostly make an appeal to fear too, depicting dystopian scenarios, at best they make an appeal to indignation and appeal to ‘return to normal’ to chase away the insecurity. They appeal to common denominator negative feelings and are impotent in terms of positiveness, because of the character of media being a mirror of collective traits and emotions.

Modern society got stuck in its own obsessions, its own dictatorship of collective ‘reality’ distributed through media, which acts as a boosting canon of mass negative traits. Technology empowers, since negative traits are those most common to humans, of which history is proof, humans become the victim of their own traits, boosted by technology. Global elites only give this situation a push.

I agree the fear remains a dominant definer of many kinds of human communications where the mind reacts in like kind, rather than open a new place from which to see or meet in. But I look for a 'humanity' regardless the alloy of 'greater values' in grievances set in seeking resolution 'technologically',  in ways that persist the predicates or archetypes of relational breakdown (to a physical shell or masked lockdown in 'materialism').

In terms of outer technology -as the ability to define, predict and manipulate the world, the invested funding and capture of new technologies of the Industrial Revolution that became the new global elites - such as Rockefeller-Carnegie Monopoly that merely fronted an underlying cartel as appearance of competition ever since, and so is not only determining what shall or shall not be funded or squelched in terms of development, but sets weaponising and marketising as the determining parameters of anything the moves - while increasing the networks of surveillance and control to eradicate 'under the radar' potentials for any shock to the system - excepting as determined to grow and adjust the system itself.

Also those who have acquired possession and control are invested in not losing it and put a lot into not only predicting the future, but 'helping' it to happen in way that either serve their interests - or position themselves as insiders to take advantage of inevitable processes of action and reaction.

As such global elites are technologically inflated exemplars of that trait in us all - which I see as a 'fear-control' split mind of action and reaction, as distinct from a truly human presence. The breakdown of relations or communication within 'Presence' is the denying or hiding over of negative traits in masking virtue.

I see a lack of substance (or doublethink) in the human thinking or self-contradictions given narrative cover, but I don't assign the sin to the living being - but to the mind of a mistaken identity running in a negatively polarised sense of its own reality.

Part of discerning of deceit or unrecognised self-illusion is where guilt and fear are appealed to as authority. I am familiar with both in their symptoms, but don't invest in them as my author or cause - so much as an action-reaction of polarised negative self-reinforcement. Such 'themes' are scripted and acted out as compelling reality when we are set in the effects but blind to true cause - not least from flagging symptoms as the 'enemy' and attacking them as if such a war could be won.

So the underlying issue is the 'negative traits' which I see as part of a human self-definition - rather than a biological determinant - though there is of course a nature and nurture feedback where the 'nurture' transmits its 'world view' as a set of survival traits that can serve as well as stifle new life.

Self will has been demonised as well as claimed and acted out. The former can and does become an inverted polarised reinforcement, and the acting out can open new perspectives. the issue of self will as conflicted struggle or the free will of aligned presence is in my view the issue of true choice - because we are free to persist in self-will - even to the point of overbearing pain, paralysis or meaninglessness - but at cost of recognising freedom as our very being. As for many freedom is associated with overcoming or escaping its loss or deprivation and denial - the mind is set in seeking OUTSIDE what is here and now for a future set in the image of a lost past - and not interested or even able to notice the structuring or patterning of the mind that is set in such a futility.

So I see a process of transition or rehabilitation from the 'masking persona' to the presence of existence as it is - even while a masking media-mind plays out its attention grabbing drama.

There are innumerable things we can say or postulate about life - but in yielding to simple presence let life 'speak'. This is what we are expert in forgetting, but truth is not 'destroyed' by lies. Our awareness and resonant alignment in true being is lost while we react to what isn't here as if it is with emotional investment that in its moment was lived as 'real' whatever hindsight may judge in the next moment.

Humankind has been negatively 'traumatised' from a catastrophic past that has yet to be disclosed to the masked off sense of dissociated 'control'. But my sense is that this Is in process of disclosure whether we like it or not and whether we think we are in control or not. And is not a matter of 'information' to think about, but the capacity to reactivate psychotic reaction.

The capacity to make conscious relationship within presence is the readiness to process some facet of the 'Separation' or Fall - which mythologically represented a framework FOR a fallen nature or negatively polarised self-will.

But mythic or narrative creations 'cast out' as a way to keep the sense of a split off self will. The recognition that we can simply walk out of a movie is also the capacity to look at it with new eyes instead of being 'plot driven. I find this aligns me in narratives that serve a movement of reintegration - even if they still use elements of dramatic tension which by definition is part of any drama.

Ha - I just responded to your second comment without seeing the first.

We think fear is not a conscious act because we do not recognise that conflicted thought generates fear, but assign the fear to the results that seem to be done to us against our will.

To choose not to invest in fear, is to release the thinking that fuels it. This is to release the mask of 'thinking' to simple presence, that of itself aligns or renews us, even if a masking mind immediately or soon after takes the credit to go forth again as if an independent autonomous power unto itself into a socially reinforced sense of self validation. There is a necessary human development of independence - but as a capacity to check in and balance our inner and outer reality. Not as a cutting of strings from the living gestalt or context of our being to run in emulation and 'make it so'.
