Religious Children Have Trouble Distinguishing Reality from Fiction
How crazy and sloppy is this piece of writing on a so called "study" framed in such vague and variable terms?
My comment:
Clearly the author has a definition of 'reality' that presumes to judge the choices of others rather than understand them.
Social, cultural and familial conditioning is known about - in whatever one is born into. However, such conditioning does not 'stick' and is only selectively taken on - according a wide range of variables.
In the term 'religious' as used in this article, I would include any information or story that is required to be believed or at least shown outer allegiance in behaviour.
Scientism believes it is dealing with fact and therefore superior to and in righteous judgement over 'silly superstition'. The same thing happened to religion with religionism.
If one's primary motive is to forge a personal and collective identity - as a way to limit reality to terms of control - then regardless the form it takes - it is ignorant of the reality of a wholeness of being - for the masked persona is centre stage and the altar of a true desire lived and shared is thus hidden.
The mask depends on perpetual war to justify itself over and against others. The blind self-righteous assertion always generates a like response - because we hate to be forced against our will. But oppositional vengeance (hatred) is not our true will.
Stories can be used for and in support of wholeness, health and integration as well as for weaving self-justifictions. Stories are rich in cultural information that in a sense is part of a rich cultural inheritance from all that have gone before us. The appreciation of the information in story is many levelled, and what on surface is an adventure can hold depths of reflection of guidance and support for the embracing of what it is to live Human.
A disconnected, analytical mind is a fantasy that can serve purpose when kept in its place - but can become a means to become hostage to a false sense of power when given to a cold and loveless intent. There IS no ultimate 'disconnecting' of mind from the Gift of Awareness by which it knows itself existing. It's a trick of focusing in thought that is not true of you.
In a world of increasing disinformation, deceit and desperation to maintain the mask of identity and control, it is as if 'reality' is breaking down. But in truth it is idols or images/models of reality that no longer 'work' or can no longer be maintained - and so we are re-connecting with feelings the identity was invoked to protect against; including terror and rage, grief and despair. We HATE to feel our self-hatred as we fear to feel our terror and rage to escape our rage. In such intensity we go to great lengths to dissociate and 'protect' a fragment of our self from such intolerable state, covering our tracks as we set it up - or it would not work. Unconscious is thus defended to remain so - and the patterning of such defence is of multiple shifting oppositional tensions. The scientific mind tends to dissociate from feeling - as a mode of control over feeling. It took this mantle on from religious beliefs that asserted rigid ideas of perfection as the one truth as ways to 'overcome' what were felt to be sinful or evil feelings and thoughts.
Everyone and every era and culture works out or rather unfolds it own strategy of 'coping' with the human conditioning - which is difficult to uncover and heal because it is protected, defended and even worshipped as The Truth.
If we 'read' everyone and everything to see if it supports or agrees with us, only letting it in if it does, and otherwise subjecting it to judgements that operate as our personal defence against what we refuse to relate of communicate with - are we not having trouble in distinguishing reality from fantasy? And is that a sin or a confusion calling for a healing response?

Modern dance has lost its Soul
I confess to not reading the article - but posted to the subject header - for as a dancer, I already have perspective to attempts to impose or coerce Life into forms of mimicry.
My comment:
Modernity embodies a loss of or sense of disconnection from Soul - where Soul is deep and truly Felt Life.
Mimicking conformities - and conforming to identities of reaction to conformity as if 'free' is a loss of Consciousness on Earth - occurring by choice and consent while framed in narratives of deceit.
To be Moved - is the core quality of our existence as expressions of Consciousness. The identity predicated on control, regards being Moved as dangerous, untrustworthy and 'out of control' - and so the flow of Life in movement, relation and communication is engineered to imposed dictates from old conditioning of the power-hungry - who are unmindful of the terror and rage that drives them because they 'justify it' with rationalisations.
We are not Moved as robots, but within a freedom to accept. This is a quality of discernment rising out of a balanced relationship and communication that simply knows and feels where to go and how to be. It is the art of living.
The command and control mentality - with its persona of acceptability-seeking-validation, is the war of getting and winning - for the 'prize' of self-specialness and superiority or prevailing over. It usurps and subverts the forms of any fresh Movement of Life to serve a purpose of control in place of the Play of Feeling that is inspirational Meaning of Life rather than a prize carrot or the stick of negative 'incentive'.
And those who feel their 'security' is provided by such imposition of control join as one in denying or demonising the Divine Impulse as they have since long before the reflection Jesus offered to illuminate such loveless self-harming.
False currency needs to be left unused. Let the dead bury the dead is the Call to invest and embody the Living. Dead thinking blinds with false rationalizations for lovelessness. Mechanical 'joy' reduces the Miracle of Life to targets and tickboxes. Better to wake to acknowledge joylessness than lose Consciousness to empty ritual. At least to feel through and transform the negativity so as to uncover the Call to Joy as it Moves us - and rejoin The Dance. Life is a Dance - to the willingness within.

The magic roundabout
Production v Plunder
I read some of the above and put another view:
Magic in this sense is the illusion of power by which one can seem to get something specially for oneself and redistribute the cost onto others. It takes two to tango and it takes a victim to pay one's own costs. The victimizer hides in fig leaves of clever thinking that interjects itself between the need and its fulfilment. But seduced by his/her own spin and identifying in what seems a power in its own right, is such a one assailed by every sling and arrow of misfortune - for all such gifts went forth and multiplied in like kind to their source and return to praise him exactly in the currency his own word established. And so ye be judged - but do not own the judgement that goes forth in hidden thought or masked agenda. And so play the innocent and call on the god of anger and hate in righteousness... The magic roundabout.
The realm of the gods or God or the Divine cannot be appreciated except in its own terms - that is - such communication can only occur in resonance of a like kind. Our forebears used symbol and story to mark and invoke the living qualities that operate beneath and within the dance of passion and death we call the world. But unless one opens and yields to the territory, one inevitably uses the symbols without being embraced by their significance within wholeness - like someone who presumes knowledge of a place he has never been to because of reading travel guides.
The truly Creative is not accessible to the deceptive/coercive. It ONLY sees threat or food/power-source. Which means it does not SEE.
The nature of the dance of reaction and defence in power struggle crystallises the human world within a complex multi-layered defence of deceit in which the Son of God (the Direct Expression of an all pervading and all embracing Life), knows not what he does.
For everything is 'done' in the name of a self protection that is out of true with who and what we truly are. To 'steal' one's life from Life and defend against Life as if it were death, is to align all that is true to serve a usurper - and that is what the theme of the article is about is it not?
The true production of supply and sustenance, guidance and support, is not a power OVER life - but is the power OF Life. To usurp Life is to merely exploit or feed upon a 'life' that is now merely 'stuff' or resources or assets - to be disposed of when stripped of 'value'.
The thing we hate most hides most securely within our own thought - is projected to the world and then again hidden in deceits and diversions of distraction. The evil we fear within, reacted to as real, reinforces itself as our experience.
The truly innocent are not compelled to 'see' as hate demands. And so they see that hate is not their true desire and withdraw allegiance - to leave the way open for the extension of the undistorted gift of life.
This awakens a new foundation where the old fell away. But unlike the fearful struggle to survive threatening Existence, the integrative movement rests within existence - being the fruit of willingness rather than wilfulness. When the truth stirs, one is unsettled and disturbed - because all one thought to be true is called out and undone at a stroke. But in the need to know is an awakening brought through us - through a willingness to know and align true.
Everything is a matter of perspective. To be framed by false thinking is to see only as it dictates.
But one can choose to recognize the false as false - rather than be hostage to its version of freedom within slavery.
The Fall of Humanity occurred over millennia. But it is a perceptual distortion and not an actual separation. A breakdown of communication.
If one puts insanely conflicted and self-contradictory self definition upon the projector of the Mind one receives a like experience in which the laws of Mind operate perfectly as ever - yet seem to have been broken. But thoughts cannot leave the mind that thinks them, and never have or will project themselves 'free' to then war with their maker. Illusions war only with themselves. Their is no war in Heaven - and such an idea is merely the project of our own thought onto a symbol of Life. Worship is worth-ship and when we invest in a false sense of worth we bear false with-ness in attempt to protect our investment. The attempt to deepen shallow roots that hide truth can only delay a correction in which truth restores perspective.

From Plunder to Wonder
Production Versus Plunder
By Paul Rosenberg
Paul Rosenberg has been publishing his book Production and Plunder in instalments on the Daily Bell. Historical perspectives can be revised in the light of seeing them in terms of unfolding idea rather than 'kings and wars. I haven't written below in direct relation to the article - but to some of the presumptions inherent in his current perspective - that are part of the framework of seeing production and plunder as different rather than polarised aspects of a framework of thought.
- - -
A common cause creates a focal point. Any focal point becomes an identification. Identification can become egocentric - such as to define its own existence in terms of surviving or prevailing for its own sake - rather than as an expression of living cause. This is identity in power for its own sake - which is not actually power - or it would not have to struggle by force and deceit to attain or maintain itself as 'power' to all that it then interprets as threat to itself and likewise driven by force and deceit.
See power outside in external terms, usurps the power innate in serving and aligning true cause - which includes the power to relax, release and move on - rather than mutate the idea of 'Klingons'.
Fear of death is part and parcel of fear of Life and one cannot be and align and share from an identification within fear, and so perception and communication is distorted and devalued to serve and reinforce fixed identities amidst the flux of Life - as if that is defacto true, rather than a self-conditioned point along a learning curve.
Organic life reveals itself to us as always more complex yet integrated as a system of a unified stability through or as its diversity - for everything plays a part in everything else on some level and in some degree. That is, there are infinite focal points of consciousness embracing what seem to be discrete and different forms. The mentality of science has a very strong but disguised component of mapping in order to command and control - which is the worship of power for its own sake - but via the deceit of serving humanity - for the very nature of a manipulative intent, is to operate within and as part of the vibrational nature of such intent and thus become a target for subversion and usurpation by whatever elements of negative agenda are attracted to neutralize it if threat and gain influence over it as extension of leverage.
Human life, shares an intersection with organic life - as well as with the vibrational communication of an energetic nature that informs and manifests all forms of correspondence - of attractions and alignments and synchronicities. But it also operates within or through a virtual reality or model of its own conditioned experience which is in a sense the world as is mutually defined and agreed to exist, and this model is on the one hand arrogantly presuming to prevail over and manually control organic life - whilst being completely ignorant of vibrational life - for want of a better term.
There is a phrase in Buddhism called "entering the stream" that relates to awakening - and I use this term to indicate the shift from fixed mental constructs of a polarized and defended sense of self, to a flowing and always changing movement of being in which a discernment of what is actually present in any current moment - which of course is always this one - or one's presence - as the consciousness that embraces and includes all that arises within it - in all its apparent diversity and perhaps seeming chaos - so as to recognize and align in what is truly resonant and relevant to who you - as an integral facet of that expression - know and accept and in that sense believe or decide yourself to be. It is called "entering the stream" because it is not stabilized or consciously integrated within the Flow or Movement of being, which cannot occur while trying to push the river and finding oneself drowning or bouncing off rocks, and so one recognizes the call to release the fixed and rigid sense of control - which is to yield up the self-will that would otherwise persist after the focus of attention has fulfilled itself. For true will is not coercive upon, but creatively revealed or uncovered within the flow or communication of event.
Each of us and all of all together are in the classroom of Humanity in which a curriculum have been generated that unfolds both an individual and collective experience of far greater richness than what the virtual self in its 'matrix reality' can conceive or imagine as the embodiment of a fixed and exclusive identity within power struggle that exclusion and rigidity generate as if in opposition to being subsumed by a Life that is now seen as 'other' or threat - for it is the idea of a private unshared or withheld 'mind'.
Production is in truth the activity of Life - whether in growing food, or the growing and crafting of needs met. But it is not conceived as 'production', because one is part of and not apart from Life. The Giver of Life is evident in all that sustains and serves our individual and collective need - and I mean our need in the sense of serving our true Humanity and not an intellectual analysis of material needs.
'Plunder' is the mentality that wishes and presumes to lord it over Life as a power unto itself - and this focusses through the divisive analytical substitution of a model of Life or an image of Life for the Intimacy and richness of the Felt Connection. The Mother/Child wholeness is overridden by a 'changed and divorced nature' that inherently fears and despises Nature and 'sees' it and therefore others - as plunder. As assets to be attained or stripped and used and evaporated.
A focal point of negatively operating identity operates as an abundance of lack - because the nature of Consciousness is to magnify and embody whatever is given focus. re-awakening Consciousness responsibility is the release of a negative or self defeating identification to what seems a void of 'not knowing' - but that is exactly the condition in which a spontaneous appreciation of a direct awareness rises within us as the living focus of our attention and desire. A transitional shift from plunder to wonder is not a persistence of wilfulness so much as a willingness to give up what doesn't work in willingness to be uncovered in what is working. One cannot change what one has not first owned. The 'plunder' mentality needs to be observed to be released but the blame and shame of secrecy and deceit in fear and manipulative guilt forbids such clear awareness. It is never to late to be on time.

Fear of AI - artificial intelligence
How scared are you of AI? asks The Guardian.
I find our technology amusing in that it replicates an already artificial intelligence.
First of all, what is Intelligence - or for the purposes of comparison; native intelligence?
The native intelligence is that which an artificial intelligence denies and usurps.
The native intelligence functions as a quality of communication within and of a wholeness of being.
An artifice operates as a distorting filter upon the communication flow, so as to operate a program of mapping, prediction and control, as a function of reinforcement and defence for the persistence of control as the foundation of a sense of separated intelligence.
This machine is apparent capacity of a mind to operate independently or autonomously. Not in Fact - but in experience.
The artificial intelligence is a device to access experience of power and will within a three dimensional 'external reality'.
However, its own definition of intelligence is predicated upon the power by which it seems to have come into existence; divide and rule.
Intelligence in the native or true sense, is indivisible, being the result of ask and receive, of knock and answer, that is innate or inherent to wholeness.
Where self-doubt has not entered, this can be readily demonstrated.
But a split off partiality from the separation-trauma is both self-assertion and self-doubt seeking to unify itself against what it projects away as rejected or not self. Within its programmed framing is only a game of powers meeting depletion and defeat - for attempt to disconnect from Source can only generate destructively, but in ways that seem to be wealth and power - that evaporates to debt and slavery and defiance.
Accessing Consciousness is a matter of releasing or desisting the artificial identity in reaction, so as to be receptive to Universal Will - which then resumes true will as integral to its wholeness in the awareness of the individual expression.
The split mind characterizes the 'human conditioning' or program over the last few millennia. But a reintegration of alignment to true function re-purposes abilities of the artificial personality complex to serve rather than usurp, the core function OF Consciousness - which is Creative.
The extension of whole consciousness into what we currently regard as machines of material insentience, is a living relational extension of Life rather than a mis-identified attempt to power over Life.
The safety of something is in its foundation. Anything of a self-conflicted foundation cannot result in a peaceful outcome. Change the foundation - or rather, release the false, and 'technologies' become ONLY used for communication and service.
The idea that humans are pests or parasites is an idea of a false self-reflection. Change your core self-belief and extend and receive a different world. We populate our world with self-hate because we don't own the conflict of our fears and therefore are programmed by them - and this reflects as 'evil power'.
All coercive power operates the same agenda - regardless of the form it takes. It is a product of wanting generated by lack and fuelled by persistent interference in its own channel of Intelligence that uses Light to make darkness as proof of its own existence. It does so by hiding or disguising awareness in mutually asserted and agreed definition. Everything reflects the Idea you give it. A matter-world of disconnected blind processes in which to 'lord it' over the subjugated? There is no peace in it, means it is delusional. An addictive negative loop. Programming failure. Reboot core services.

Poverty of Spirit and obscene inequality
The subject of wealth distribution and the politics of our way of organising our affairs:
This article on an editorial, "Why Are We So Obsessed With Everyone Else's Wealth?"
My comment:
Lets all blame it on the symptoms!
"God is dead - there are ONLY symptoms!"
"Symptoms lock us into a war that we cannot opt out of!"
"You are the problem - I hate you. No, you are the problem - I hate you and your hate proves I am right".
Many at the Daily Bell know that a significant aspect of problem is actually the assertion of 'answers' that really perpetuate the problem in disguise and are not answers at all - but are traded AS IF they were. They 'redistribute problem'.
A true accounting must remove falsely framed agendas and assertions so as to simply know.
Thinking about and opinion-asserting is grabbing at straws.
The idea that truth is ours to determine gives rise to a personal or private mind, and agenda
If such 'power' then consolidates so as to Lord it over a world it effectively dictates - why would we be surprised?
But without its game of power such 'lord' is nothing. Nothing at all.
What is it that pays tribute unto this dark 'lord'
but fear's displacement.
Thank the reflection for revealing a truth that it neither frames nor imagines.
Even if that such is to recognize what has no belonging in a unified purpose and so none in me.
We invest and trade and identify in a currency of ideas. This but reflects 'downstream' as the world such identity establishes.
Until the whole thing is brought to account, there can only be the desperation of positions within a fear of loss.
Upstream is the consciousness at template level that operates in secret and guile only because of what it is being used FOR.
Upstream of that is the Creative - which the ingenious denies in seeking self-specialness without consequence.
No one in their right mind seeks self-specialness.
Wrong-mindedness may become the norm here, but it will never become love. Hence it MUST deny love to seem bearable.
Power-envy operates the manufacture of grievance.
Who has ears, let them hear!

On the same page was a comment by GF:
I reply:
Isn't the attempt to eliminate the way we KEEP things rather than release them? History does shoe remarkable persistence in repeating itself - albeit in ever more complex forms. But I like the idea of redefining everything clearly so that coercion is coercion is coercion no matter which 'side' of the fence it appears to be on - or how much justifiction it generates from its polar opposite.
History can mean what is not here now unless we choose to repeat it by reacting as if it is here. It can also mean the coercive narrative of a justification for wielding power at expense of living presence.
The coercive mentality makes its own version of 'directed history'.
By the way if the 'banking system' COULD be made a transparent and fully accountable service - such that no sleeves existed to hide false cards, no table to hide signal under and no loopholes that could be exploited to corrupt its service - what kind of system would it be?
And if wealth distribution was a movement of free will rather than of pernicious withholding via artificially imposed scarcities and reflected patterns of value shared.
The deceiver works both ends of the market, or the conflict, by interjecting a false framework onto a communication breakdown. I feel a world of difference between siding with freedom rather than 'fighting for it' for all wars are in a sense 'the banker's wars' although the corruption in the template is not IN the symbol that reflects it - nor the scapegoat offered up to relieve it from exposure.
But healing our mind DOES mean being more and more aware and responsible for our currency and usage of thought and word and therefore of the deeds that effect automatically from the only level that can be truly changed - for coercing behaviours is not freedom no matter what is 'eliminated' thereby. Reclaiming power must begin with recognizing and owning our part in a deception regardless 'who seemed to start it'. Merely operating a grievance aims victimhood at whoever and whatever the conditioning dictates as 'enemy'. I'm not suggesting there are not strong feelings associated with our sense of grievance, but they do not mean that the self-definition that gives rise to them is the whole truth.
History is also a perception and all perception is selective. One can perceive from a sense of lack and grievance or from a sense of wholeness. Many find great self-forgiveness approaching death and become illuminated by a tangible peace. I am not suggesting we put off today until tomorrow - but that we are not LOCKED into perspectives but by our own pride - along with a lifetime's conditioning to operate 'command and control' or else feel failure and powerlessness.
The microcosm is the portal to the Macrocosm. But one can indulge a sense of powerlessness so as to no longer feel obliged to live the capacity that one does have to embody and communicate a better way of living than fearful greed and shameful envy.
When everyone chooses NOT to choose their own integrity, the 'market' is wide open to corruption. Waiting to see if others will change first or justifying the status quo because 'what difference would it make if I changed' IS the investment in the status quo - at the level of measuring everything primarily in terms of the sense of personal loss or gain that y/our history sets as the available options.
Though I include you in reply here I am of course addressing a wider attention and not focussing on you personally. That thinking makes it so is forgot in the wish that our thoughts be true. A disconnected thinking costs the mind an extraordinary overhead in defence and of course leads via bedlam to a prodigal wasteland.

Wealth Redistribution is almost as pernicious and destructive as Monopoly Central Banking. Both should be eliminated from the human lexicon, and relegated to the dustbin of history, where they belong. Yeah, I know, fat chance. : )

But I like the idea of redefining everything clearly so that coercion is coercion is coercion no matter which 'side' of the fence it appears to be on - or how much justifiction it generates from its polar opposite.
History can mean what is not here now unless we choose to repeat it by reacting as if it is here. It can also mean the coercive narrative of a justification for wielding power at expense of living presence.
The coercive mentality makes its own version of 'directed history'.
By the way if the 'banking system' COULD be made a transparent and fully accountable service - such that no sleeves existed to hide false cards, no table to hide signal under and no loopholes that could be exploited to corrupt its service - what kind of system would it be?
And if wealth distribution was a movement of free will rather than of pernicious withholding via artificially imposed scarcities and reflected patterns of value shared.
The deceiver works both ends of the market, or the conflict, by interjecting a false framework onto a communication breakdown. I feel a world of difference between siding with freedom rather than 'fighting for it' for all wars are in a sense 'the banker's wars' although the corruption in the template is not IN the symbol that reflects it - nor the scapegoat offered up to relieve it from exposure.
But healing our mind DOES mean being more and more aware and responsible for our currency and usage of thought and word and therefore of the deeds that effect automatically from the only level that can be truly changed - for coercing behaviours is not freedom no matter what is 'eliminated' thereby. Reclaiming power must begin with recognizing and owning our part in a deception regardless 'who seemed to start it'. Merely operating a grievance aims victimhood at whoever and whatever the conditioning dictates as 'enemy'. I'm not suggesting there are not strong feelings associated with our sense of grievance, but they do not mean that the self-definition that gives rise to them is the whole truth.
History is also a perception and all perception is selective. One can perceive from a sense of lack and grievance or from a sense of wholeness. Many find great self-forgiveness approaching death and become illuminated by a tangible peace. I am not suggesting we put off today until tomorrow - but that we are not LOCKED into perspectives but by our own pride - along with a lifetime's conditioning to operate 'command and control' or else feel failure and powerlessness.
The microcosm is the portal to the Macrocosm. But one can indulge a sense of powerlessness so as to no longer feel obliged to live the capacity that one does have to embody and communicate a better way of living than fearful greed and shameful envy.
When everyone chooses NOT to choose their own integrity, the 'market' is wide open to corruption. Waiting to see if others will change first or justifying the status quo because 'what difference would it make if I changed' IS the investment in the status quo - at the level of measuring everything primarily in terms of the sense of personal loss or gain that y/our history sets as the available options.
Though I include you in reply here I am of course addressing a wider attention and not focussing on you personally. That thinking makes it so is forgot in the wish that our thoughts be true. A disconnected thinking costs the mind an extraordinary overhead in defence and of course leads via bedlam to a prodigal wasteland.

Original Nature and original sin
The investment oriented news and comment site 'The Daily Bell' is basically a libertarian orientation to economic, political and social ideas, institutions and events.
This Daily Bell interview opened my comment below.
- - -
The IDEA of original sin has been almost universally interpreted and applied within the idea itself. Or it would not be original - but derivative.
The idea; 'sin' has become devalued as a useful term by being used as a WEAPON and shield for invalidating self and other and world by some idea of a rationality or power that is presumed 'without sin' - as the 'Judge' of self, other and world.
That IS the original error.
The 'error' by which one obscures and depreciates one's awareness of self, other and world, but the error cannot be observed with the mechanism of mind that the error gives rise to.
The mind that we presume to operate FROM is part and parcel of the world-construct as we define and experience it. But IT presumes itself apart from - so as to divide and define in terms of its own presumed 'power'.
Everything that proceeds from the father of the lie can only be the lie. In this sense the root is not in the effects but at the cause.
Original Nature is that which is believed to be lost, obscured, distorted, corrupted and usurped by (original) sin.
Original Nature is expressed as innate and inherent worth - that is not affected or edited or changed by anything one thinks or does - ever. And sin became the idea of uncorrectable error backed by an unyielding or fixed and merciless judgement.
But to sin is to miss the mark - not least because of aiming at a mistaken reflection of the target.
The paradox of nature and nurture reveals both AND more are actively one experience of cause and effect operating in TIME.
The 'more' is the embracing and pervading Consciousness of which a polarized mind in struggle and reaction is oblivious of and distracted from.
Greater perspective is not gained within the framework of the conflicted mentality - nor by a coercive attempt to enforce all but what the dominant power asserts 'rational or true' to be invalid, unworthy and heretical. So therefore to be denied.
The way the deception operates is from a level above or upstream to the apparent events and outcomes. The redistribution of blame does not ever address the cause - but perpetuates and propagates it in the guise of answer.
To address the cause, one must awaken as the responsibility at the level of cause. In simple terms one cannot change that which one has refused to own.
Original sin is not way way back in time - because the error persists and propagates moment by moment by moment... AS an experience of time in which cause and effect are NOT one but delayed, and in which delay it can seem meaningful that a loveless and coercive means could yet give rise to a love-worthy goal or effect.
Such is the person-prismed prison of the mind 'apart from' that identifies and operates 'over and against'.
"See what YOU made me" it screams, asserting its injustice as justification for hate and attack.
Power seeks only freedom to operate in - and then to progressively free itself of any adversity or obstruction that would hold it in check - which it 'sees' everywhere and in everything as an ever shifting delusional nightmare from which it refuses to awaken.
But is it power? or is it the grasp for power, the wish for power, the fear of losing power, the fear of powerlessness?
The power to heal is in us - as is the power to destroy awareness of the power to heal. But the effects cannot unmake their Cause.
Rationality is simply a subtle disguise for un-owned attempts to escape conflict of fear by denial, through personification of 'objectivity' that is then used as a puppet by unconscious and destructive drives to vindicate or validate that which has no basis of existence at all.
Rationality adopts the guise of Reason - which is Sanity of un-conflicted congruency.
Note that not only is the justification for coercion in the name of freedom blind to its own deception - it is actively defended against such exposure.
It is inevitable that the one who would reveal the falsity of an anti-terror terrorism be associated with the terrorist.
Is it not clear by now that the apparently opposing polarities share a single agenda!
Here is another reason to 'love thine enemy' - for it is the one who seems enemy to you, who brings to you the recognition of that in yourself which you judge against, and feel fully justified in hating and attacking.
"to arrive where we started. And know the place for the first time" is to recognize the entrance-ment to a mind/world of false division given to fear and hate - and see it meaningless.
When the false is undone, no truth need be asserted - but is simply evident as the obvious.
Freedom is known as truly aligned wholeness of being. Heart and mind as one.
Loss of freedom is believed and experienced in asserting misalignment as if to get to or become free.
The experience of a polarised and conflicted world will continue to intensify itself until the difference in each CHOICE is recognized. But true choice is only available at the level of Cause. All behaviours are conditioned by the Ideas that they embody. There is no freedom at the level of behaviour itself.
Trying to make it so is to deny one's cause.
Denying one's cause is the 'original sin'. Its progeny all persist the same patricide. This is evident as the patterning of the history of the 'independent power'.
Surface mentality is a mask by definition. It can serve as a lens of experience but can hardly be used to define the depth - much less control them. Yet such is the conditioned arrogance of human ignorance that believes it knows - yet has no peace of Knowledge.
Tyranny can and does express itself in and as any kind of form. If the imposed collectivism operates in denying expression of thought, the imposed market based 'individualism' operates in framing all permissible thought in an illusion of freedom in which token resistance, token freedom, token enemies, are allowed and supported and encouraged.
The sucker is the one who WANTS to believe they can get something for nothing, or indeed make something worthy out of an ongoing unconscious delusion by which he/she is cultivated.
The other sucker believes they can exploit suckers and retain their own integrity. But they prey to self-specialness and arrogantly assume 'power', elite status and except themselves from law until they can remake it in their own image.
It takes two to tango...
"Leave them alone and they'll come home, dragging their tales behind them"

Fear in hiding
I came across a generic image in an article on a recent horror film and a title about 'facing one's own darkness'. I felt to comment on the genre - which extends beyond moviemaking to the media's focussing of attention and also our own mental proclivity to 'know not what we do'.
- - -
Fascination with guilt, fear and a sense of malevolent will or evil, is looking with it -or letting IT dictate where one looks.
The splitting off of mind from itself in conflicted confusion of identity is becoming VICTIM to one's own thought and the 'mind' that such focus then generates.
To simply look at, own or face the darkness in our mind is to see from a perspective that is NOT subject to or within the drama - indeed which chooses NOT to feed the mind-story and which then frees itself to choose to focus in what serves and expresses a true or whole sense of appreciation.
Hiding from fear is the same as hiding IN fear. Humanity is very tricksy in the way it sets up the device to separate itself from the knowledge of its true being in order to persist in what might be seen as a perpetually reinforcing negative loop that plays out in endless remakes of the same old archetypes.
There are WAYS of telling a story that reflect back to the core qualities of being - and the gargoyles play a role in having to be passed by or faced through as part of the reintegration of consciousness and its reflected world.
But to use symbols out of context and indulge gratifications or coercive distortion is in a sense the 'playing out of an evil or oppositional will'.
Fear operates as a device to keep consciousness 'shut down' within narrowly defined dictates... a tyrannous will.
One can watch the mind watching its world and thinking its thoughts and having its reactions. Such a one is not a slave to fear - nor its secret wish to wield power over Life, oneself, the world or others.
Love is what is truly feared - for its presence automatically dispels fear and restores a clear perspective of true relation. Therefore use fear to keep the mind perpetually and busily distracted in compulsive and necessary thought and reaction in case the light should dawn on its lack of foundation as a power in its own right - period.
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. What you give out IS what you get back. Making parts of the mind unconscious makes us suffer our own choices without recognizing we choose. This can be very exciting, but the glamour wears off and the dream turns to nightmare in which we are attacked by our own hidden thoughts.
Jesus offers a clear path to recognize for those who thirst for truth rather than power for their attempt to persist as the 'self' of a separated mind.

Electric Universe
An Intergalactic Light That Shines Too Bright
Scientist can't account for ionised hydrogen filaments in space within their 'dead' model of the Universe
The basic propositions of the "Electric Universe" take away all these dark matters and reveal the Universe in a New Light. The increasingly incomprehensible and meaningless contortions of outworn or outmoded scientific models are revealing themselves in refusal to question basic assumptions that express a billiard ball or clockwork mentality.
Along with that is the effect of such archaic mechanistic mentality as our guide in all things social, economic and political. That is - of using a mechanistic, coercive and disconnected mentality as the basis of our thinking. No surprise at the state of world affairs then…!
