Beyond propaganda

Where propaganda works, the mind is not working.

Engaging in propaganda war is to lose your mind to a polarised narrative identity - set against 'whatever'.

Awakening the mind to that it is a mind and not a shaped narrative identity, is the communication of equals - for minds are in communication only there.

To meet another in worth and shared value is to extend it because you have it.

The 'serpent in the Garden' represents the propaganda of self-lack, doubt and perverted desire. Deceits take over the mind in its own spin as the mutually reinforcing 'identity' set apart or distanced from all Relationship, in fear of pain of penalty and loss for te resulting lockdown to physical limits and broken and denied communication, hidden only by the asserting of the mask of both figleaves and thorns.

But WHO told you you were naked?

is the Thought God gives as the stirring of our own capacity to discern and recognise truth from fictions that may be given priority as if true,and  reacted to, suffered and died in as real.

This need not be.

But the willingness to question is not IN the mind-spin of a masking identity.

So addressing another by that name is to feed the mask in them - and in yourself, because, its takes one to know one.

Tune into your heart, and note that your problems will want priority and perhaps deny the heart except as can be filtered and fitted to the demands of war against evils. If you need to use another to work out your problems upon, they will not recognise an extension of love, but the imposition of demands.

Questioning in the mind is always some form of circular self-reinforecment, but a true question is not propaganda that states its predicate as the frame an answer must then fit. The heart and mind work together as one or they are not really working at all, for each will deny the other.

Education in recognising propaganda and deceit, is of our own willingness to question our own presumptions, definitions and core beliefs. One could say it is a program running, or a 'normal' of subconscious learning, that operates automatically to mask over and support a mutually supported sense of self and world that is already distanced, locked down and ruled by narrative dictates, only the reiteration of this at this time offers a means to recognise the pattern.

There is a world and reality that is truly shared and not merely a shared way of thinking and looking at it from a bubble of distancing set in control and fear of loss. But propaganda operates to deny truth for the necessity of conflict, war and division, without which a private mind will be undone of hiding in darkness.

The beliefs to which the mind clings are its seeming protections. The basis for questioning has to be from an instant of connection. If I attempt to draw on sympathies or leverage fear as antipathies, I cannot simply be the expression of an already present humanity.

While I might THINK I know what is needed in the current situation, I am moved in the heart to recognise that an awakening at the heart is freedom to accept, and that this choice cannot be thrust on another or wilfully enacted myself.

So whatever you do, look to the way and the spirit of the why and what for of the doing. The witness for a love of life and of Humanity can express and share through simple acts in which we have learned to get out of our own way.

The old 'normal' is by definition recast by the new conditions - which are of fear and control. But our recognition of these is our freedom to choose not to align or accept this and to reach within for a new expression and witness for the original nature or the free natural - which is not dog eat dog, but a willingness of giving and receiving by which truth aligns our relationships, interactions and exchanges.

If you cannot extend a true presence you can learn from the experience.

If we meeat hate with hate and lies with lies, what good can come of it once its moment of personal fantasy gratification is spent?
