Demos and Hieros are two facets of a whole

Whatever democracy may be inferred or masked in or purposed to mean is an important issue in terms of redeeming our thought and word to a true witness rather than to become diluted and distorted as derivative currencies that may have social acceptance but can be divorced from a truly current accounting.

The attempt to force reality to fit our model makes a moonshot a walk in the park.

Demos and hieros are two facets of a whole. The elitism currently seems to think we need more than a haircut, so that they can escape their toxic debts to us and contract to some Ideal Order that they hold as authority over empirically informed freedom of association and workability. But if it doesn't fit in and support their Model, it is dissociated and debunked by smear. Not because it doesn't work, but because it cannot be quantified into a system of accountability to control.

Each in our self is a governance that may on closer investigation reveal itself to have more in common with what we are quick to criticise in others. That does not mean we cannot freely engage in critical communication but it would shift such communication from the merely reactive or morally leveraging of guilting and shaming.

It is as if when ideology (grown on the death of religion) was likewise revealed a dead end, the underlying mindset of leveraging others had nothing left but 'leveraging the minds of others', and so this is now hyped and wrapped up in new age thinking, where any potential insight is weaponised to serve 'leveraging the minds of others', rather than illuminating our own.

Who thinks that their own reintegrative wholeness or sanity is their primary responsibility to their relationships and to their world?

I see a split mind as the ‘old normal’ - regardless its packaging presentation - and one way of representing this is as fear and control, where fear invokes an external control to deny and mask over conflict that becomes overwhelming or intolerable. This splits the mind to those demanding unconsciousness to a sense of self-lack or inadequacy and those who stand in the role of holding order over and against a chaos, which includes the mapping and modelling of chaos to a system of control. But all of it is conflicted identity seeking to regain a lost sense of wholeness and connection - but externally set or cast out. Normal is simply habituated and means nothing of substance in itself. Natural can be innate or given, but if only applied to judgements of an externalise ‘natural’ world will reflect back our own mind  - as if viruses ‘hijack’, mutate and replicate.

These functions belong to the living cell within a larger communication of symbiosis. The intent to break the cell integrity and force in a coding hack to hijack the living and replicate according to external instructions, is itself a picture of the split minded attempt to override and interject its own purpose in place of the symbiotic response of the whole in all its parts. What is the purpose of the split mind but to ‘make you safe’ from the awareness of the split by all and any means?
