Perfidious Unreality

2024-01-11

Well writ Kit!

While 'They' are in a sense everywhere represented by fronting actors and agencies, what 'They' embody in cultural terms is both a masking mindset and acculturated or conditioned worldview - some of which you have scratched at

I could say 'They' project the disembodiment of life in Spirit to 'life' as sacrifice to idol (and begat or derivative models).

But before I engage my own modelling definitions as a means to share idea, I also recognise 'They are Us' in ways not at all apparent to the mind of a split sense of self & world.

The acted out parable of the moneylenders in the Temple has a correlation to each our own temple - both in the sense of false or conflicted devotions and the thought centre of the temple. The interjection of censorial controls is a use of the mind to judge and manipulate itself - at best a balancing inhibition set over impulsive reaction, at worst an inner gaslighting (dis) possession of Spirit that claims to speak as the voice for Spirit.
A kind of Promethean lucidity of false lights in which to bind the hapless in Pandora's trap.

Mythic reflections can serve to recognise active patterns otherwise running blind.
But the bottom line is that all things serve the active purpose we hold in our heart and mind - regardless any stories we may tell ourselves or buy into as self-augmenting fantasy.

But the exclusive focus in 'our world' is unwilling and perhaps unable to look at the 'withinness' of the moment at hand, for it is in the grip of mythic and manipulative identity - albeit clothed in modern or post-modern terms of corrupted & weaponised insight.

The archetypal patterning of a fragmenting and fragmented human & divine constellation has an autonomous machine-like blind logic.We cannot but arrive at our starting place.
But is not 'bottoming out' to know it for the first time?
To look directly on a desecration of self and life is both the 'hell' that drives 'blind survival' and the release of blindness to a true foundation - that was never truly absent.

I'm bored with 'Them' as the framer of stories by which to make identity on or from.
The 'hate of evil' is also a carrot on a stick to the weaponising of grievance for the purpose of self-vindication and vengeance. But I'm thus more open to recognising mythic patterning of a cast-out Script that winds up time to its tipping point.

Breaking the spell of a fixation on Otherness as physical determinism is the loss of its use to mask in against our own largely unconscious fear - hence the call to war for regaining 'control' or 'normal' set in polarised identity struggle.
But regardless the insanity that is thus revealed, the true devotion is the call to heal.

Unhealed healers operate in the frame of a world and a mind set for 'getting' a sense of self-lack filled, and so self-lack is boosted by its own 'solutions' to the point of breakdown.
But willingness to accept healing as alignment of thought, feeling, word and deed in Spirit - now and now - is a way of living from an 'uncarved block' of foundation not made or manufactured by mental expressions of psychic distortion.

There is nothing I can do to teach this but to learn it - now and now.
In a sense we are in the fruits of millennia set in teaching and learning self and world for 'getting'. Each for our own reasons, and all in various shifting patterns of collective cultural expressions of identity. But what we give or teach sets the measure of our receiving or learning. Received 'reality' is thus a participative relationship, but we are conditioned to be-live the movie we make of it as reality itself.

'They' are manipulating the reflected image in the pool. The 'Me' genie of wishful thinking set over discarded, degraded, feared and hated reality. (what we make of reality when taking a vain inheritance for self-specialness).

The realm of qualitative appreciation is always nigh, but the quantisation to weights and measures is set into contractual terms and conditions running invisibly normal to the unconscious suckling.

There is a Field, beyond judgements of right and wrong... Nowhere else can meeting truly ever be. Field alignment is a participative cooperation, for we are of the living regardless aligning in the 'dead' thinking of a grasp set in, thus dictated by image and form.

You are meant to 'wake up' from being phished. But if you insist, you can persist in unconsciousness as if to scape the pain at heart to anyone and anything ELSE.
Sacrifice 'saves' the conflict by feeding it. A true gift is freely given to reveal a sanctity of life shared, not a specialness set over & apart as 'sacred'.

My gist is of the 'terrain' not as a product of thinking, but the territory of what it is to be this very instant of living expression seeks to be known as to know, and so the development of 'thinking' can be as a servant in the 'father's house' by which sovereignty is extended - not counter-claimed in opposition.

Waking up into a nightmare is a basis to question the dream - and the dreamer both.
Awakened love is nothing special.
But everything participates.
Take no thought for yourself is not an extra impossible burden, but a basis to release an impossible burden.

"How shall I think?"
That's a start!
