Weaponising and Marketising New Insight or Perspective

https://www.anhinternational.org/news/whats-in-it-for-me-in-the-anh-health-blueprint/

What's in it for me in the ANH health blueprint?

One of the ways I see a fundamental error protected from correction is the weaponising and marketising of any new insight or perspective as the subversion of a Living Movement to a systemic control mentality.

The costs of the 'control mentality' are the symptoms of sickness, that then 'drive' the agenda of a negative economy.

The generation of a captured opposition is the 'sustainability' of a system of control by means of exacting allegiance and compliance - while undermining challenge of opposition - not least by claiming the 'territory' of 'CARING' in the creation NOT of health but of its language and definition.

The underlying 'post-truth' politic is the use of persuasions and 'incentives' to engineer consensus.

This IS the switching of allegiance from relational honesty to systemic identity.

Regardless the content of any communication, I urge discernment as to its methods and targeted fears.

Anything that targets our fear in appeal for acceptance is a salesman with a private agenda. This does not invalidate them, or all of what they say - but it is a conscious alert ness against being 'friended' or 'liked' into a phishing ruse by which identity theft operates through a systemic replacement.

The 'ego' MUST frame the New into its own thinking because that is ITS function. YOU do not have any such constraint because Your function is to behold all things New and see that they are Good. Or in modern parlance, to recognize and share in wholeness of being - regardless of the conditional and conditioned mind of reaction. It is a willingness and not an act of will seeking IMPACT.

Letting Life in rather than presuming to create Life in our own image.

It is true that the Creative extends through our willingness - but the moment we take this as our own power is the usurpation of consent by a tyrannous and blind dictate. THAT we forget is ongoingly evident. Willingness for Life is a change of heart - or rather a bringing of the mind to an honestly felt quality of wholeness instead of seeking to run off with the role of Lord Protector - and believe it!

Let Life abide and become in you. Don't abort the movement for an old Herodian conditioning pattern.

This means accepting love's wholeness through the willingness to share it. This moment is all that is needed to realign in health and wholeness - by Letting - which is always some form of getting out of our own way or trying to DO Life's function as a sense of control.

Don't just DO something - stand there - in willingness to receive of a different purpose than set by fears and self-deceits. Wholeness is connected and at rest in itself - even as a dynamic expression of active endeavour. Do not get in the way - will not be effective because it focuses in the negative. Do only as the way unfolds or aligns - which means you are listening, on purpose and trusting the timing of each step as part of a whole that is IN each step - even if the framing of the mind-in-the-world cannot yet see or appreciate this yet.

The attunement to discernment is the translation medium of all 'tongues'. 

The belief that others are stupid or unable to understand is the resort to 'change' them 'for their own good'.

This is very dangerous thinking to anyone tempted to accept it by acting it out.

Rather, learn toe READ the situation through a true discernment. What obstructs such a gift but our own conditioned thinking - and therefore what is the situation but an opportunity to accept healing for ourselves instead of fixating on errors seen outside us and attempting to resolve our conflict 'outside' ourself.

A key understanding is that everyone involved is both teacher and learner. The professionalisation to models of 'health' seeks to change the patient to 'help' them. The patient seeks to maintain evasion of relational conflicts set in external terms without distressing consequence. The agreement to physical causation is a mutual evasion that goes back millennia - as a displacement and re-enactment of power-struggle in and upon the body. Because this is such a deep conditioning, it is invisible and presumed to be self-evident reality - beyond rational challenge or question.

The program of the seemingly escaped sense of dis-embodied self-separateness is 'what's in it for me?'

This works a LACK-based sense of self against any alignment in wholeness. It works backwards in a world that has learned to think backwards by assigning Cause to effects - and WANTING it there. And attacking it there.

Discernment uncovers what is truly yours to give and receive without taking from another or dumping on them in attempt to use them lovelessly - for what we can get from them or get rid of on them.

So discernment brings the loveless INTO awareness for healing - by better choosing. Whereas the systemic manipulation of our psychic-emotional experience works to keep the loveless HIDDEN so as to make its persistence sustainable. This on surface, feels better - but at cost of denying our consciousness for a superficial substitute for life - RUN by fear.

By the way - I speak to your intuitive stirring - not to set your mind. The capacity of a direct and simple curiosity is the power to ask and be answered. Life is NOT a system to manipulate (without thus being manipulated), but has relational integrity LIKE what we identify as systems being of unified and unifying purpose. But the framework of the body presumes a closed system in its own spatial timeline. This is a very limiting and distorting focus - and brings corresponding results.

You are integrally in and of Life - which is BIGGER than anything we can model or conceive of. And so is your brother - who is brother BECAUSE of sharing Life - and not because he or she supports or agrees with your sense of how anything should be.

The term 'broad spectrum dominance' is often used militarily with regard to every other vector of influence being weaponised. It is a broad spectrum subjection to a corrupted idea of power.

The mind can be a true servant or a deceiver operating a secret service. How willing are we to relate without coercion or deceit? Not at all if we do not even recognise it in ourselves! But only in the context of a desire to heal - and no more as the sustaining of a blame economy or mindset. Responsibility is where freedom wakes the heart of a truly shared moment - and movement of being.

Conflicting mindshare, False stats and side effect by design

Companies clash over statin side effects. Which is lying? By Jerome Burne

My main comment to the article above:

Waking up to treachery and deceit by which such suffering is doled out and suckled on as 'help', is disturbing - and the apparent inability to simply correct the error adds to this sense of powerlessness. Because no one is able to publicly come out without meeting blanking, ridicule or invalidation, and denial in ways that cause many to withhold natural and needful communication because it can attract penalty from vested power interests.

But we educate ourselves, grow in vigilance and discernment and withdraw allegiance from dodgy, deceitful or destructive agenda  while truing up from a clearer sense of purpose and more conscious communication. For  communication is feared or there would not be such distortions and censorship (whether actively imposed on media and other institutions or self-imposed within a tacitly communicated fear of crossing the line and attracting financial sanction, legal suits or other kinds of penalty. But allowing for personal compromise to silence those who should report and witness for society at large there is still a very destructive corporate pharmocracy that has only been insinuating itself more insidiously into our thinking since Thomas S. Szasz coined the term back in 1960.
Behind the FORMS of the world we think we know is a power agenda of very clever but unfeeling mentality. The idea of deceiver is not new  but the technological reach of destructive agenda in all of our expanded abilities is global  as is the prize for those who take idea out of living context and force it on the living or force the living to conform and suffer it. I dont really see profit as the motive  but the ownership of market  which is mindshare and indeed mindcontrol or social engineering. Power corrupts  it goes to the head and loses the heart  unless clearly held in real relationship of transparency and accountability. Ive ranted on here  I meant to recommend the perspectives and work of Stephanie Seneff, note the film Stain Nation, and indeed You Must Be Nuts  and to remember that hatred is also toxic  and so research and grow in health from the ground up  because the top-down has been compromised, and corrupted. We give power to external agencies to make symptoms go away or mitigate them while persisting the same freedom to live out-of-true and outsource the costs and consequence until it comes home. There is no blame in my saying this because we do not know what we do when our OWN thinking is compromised and protected from anything that seems to threaten our world.

David Bailey (to the article):

I guess this leaves one interesting question. How did researchers come up with evidence that statin side effects and placebo side effects were approximately equal? These were sufficient to fool Ben Goldacre -normally a severe critic of the drug industry.

... Nowadays, when drugs are approved even if they only have marginal value, is it possible that placebos are concocted to produce a small amount of the very problem the drug is supposed to cure/prevent!

My response:

As I see it, the active placebo effect  where some bodily response "tells you" that the drug is working such as a dry throat, is known to have a greater result than say a sugar pill alone. Drug companies also utilize this in their "real medicines".

I have the distinct impression that drug companies often set up their trial parameters in such a way as to distort the results  So the placebo used may be inactive and the trial drug  say fluoxetine (prozac) is adulterated with active extras that "tell" the subject that the drug is "working".

There are a whole range of tricks that clever people routinely do to sell what otherwise would be less wanted, unwanted or indeed criminal to purvey.

The key points I see are that data, to have any scientific credibility, must be open, and that the trials really need to be independent of the drug company influence - which is a trillion dollar distortion field. How could it NOT be?

Our modern society is built on "getting" while avoiding being "got from". And is no basis for whole or healthy anything  nor one in which healing or reintegrating modalities and perspectives can grow and fruit. This calls on a profound paradigm shift in our core self definitions as to who we are and what life is for.

If the foundation is corrupt - everything built upon it - no matter how well intentioned  follows suit.

One can petition inherently corrupt institutions to deliver fairness or just and honest service and communication  and fight the lack of this in law to some degree - and there are ways of doing this that share true witness rather than pursue a merely private agenda  but the desire and willingness to uncover a true foundation is discerning what truly resonates your integrity rather than handing all power over to experts - who may yet be worthy advisers to your informed decision.

Is sickness an absence of drugs? Is pre-emptive sacrifice for the sake of reducing risk of fear-mongered conditions - the true causes of which are not investigated or published, a worthy or sane response?

If power and wealth is so disproportionately distributed, it belies that the vast majority want to give it away - or rather use others as their protector and guide rather than awaken their own responsibilities. And those riding the wave encourage it and and are encouraged  even demanded  to persist. How insane can insane get before it can no longer mask as sanity - and therefore attract allegiance? They say everyone has their breaking point - but dissociation can fragment into less and less consciousness operating more and more regulated existence - perhaps without ever breaking ranks to question its reality.

("Anatomy of an Epidemic by Robert Whitaker" is a worthy perspective upon the psychopharma drug approach and its consequences that has relevance to the broader pharma practices and underlying social beliefs that support them).

Reversing the reversal?

 Watered down medical innovation bill passes into English/Welsh law

A new Bill has passed into English/Welsh law to promote access to innovative medical treatments
This is a new, modified version of Lord Saatchi’s original well-intended, but controversial Medical Innovation Bill
In this new guise, the authorities carry a loaded gun to point at any doctor given that the doctor will remain liable if he/she is found to be negligent in carrying out the innovative treatment
All innovative treatments and outcomes will be recorded in a new Medical Innovation Register that’s effectively a fast-track licensing system for new drugs and those that have been used off-label
The chosen innovative treatment must be supported by a responsible body of medical opinion, i.e. a team of doctors all agreeing on the same course of action
Innovative treatment will typically be off-label use of an existing drug
Sick and vulnerable patients will effectively be test subjects, and their outcomes will inform clinical trials for wider pharma markets
The structure of this Bill has effectively closed the door to natural treatments, whether they be innovative or not

My Comment:

State control of health issues and denial of freedom to explore or integrate non-pharmacological approaches has nothing to do with science and everything to do with the corruption of the State by transnational corporate lobbies – after first subverting and corrupting scientific institutions and media.
The extension of the idea of owning and controlling our biology and environment is the logical outcome of a directed technocratic behaviourism – in which faulty and unworthy broken bio-robots – have to be manually overridden of their own will so as to farm them.
The ‘elitists’ are a ‘power class’ who have corresponding privilege, insider knowledge and protections that they are unwilling to lose – and so no real opening to change a system of maintaining division and control will be allowed – for any crack in the dam would open up more – and the loss of such control is terrifyingly unthinkable and avoided at any cost.
Anecdotally – the film “Cancer is a serious business” that documents coercion and fraud – was raised in discussion in the highest office of the USA – but was simply ‘too big’ to go into or open up. “Too big to fail” is the sense of tares entangling the wheat that dare not be addressed for fear the whole economy and power system as we have known it – disintegrates or ‘goes down’. And of course too many vested interests will move to block or counter any reform.
Regaining our own ‘inner track’ of power has to begin by opening and owning our fears rather than demanding another power ‘save us’ from them. No one else can stop a true willingness to learn; to transform and to heal or reintegrate to a wholeness of being – but the guilted and fearfully split sense of self we are conditioned to normalize and persona-fy is not the basis for such a movement of being. Aligning in a true movement of being is different from fear-fuelled ‘power’ or wilfulness upon life. Listening Within is not mad! It is refusing a false-faced normalcy in hate for a clear and true perspective that can only be had by allowing it in – by receiving. And listening within will include noticing promptings and intuitive recognitions ‘without’ or in the ideas or people or situation we attract into our lives – because we are desirous of a truly integrated outcome – whether we are denied a fullness of cultural exchange or not.

Tribeca censorship of "Vaxxed" and how to beat it

My Comment:

Recognize that coercive assertion is hate - no matter what symbols it appeals to for legitimizing itself. No matter what forms it adopts. For it listens not and cares not for anything but its own blinded sense of self interest.

The compulsive dictate of a hateful intent is not recognized by those who believe it protects them - or 'others' in such ways as empowers them. But is ascribed to those who would bring it to light and to being healed - and then righteously directed at them as if in retaliation.

"What we believe - and insist you also believe (or conform your behaviour to), cannot be brought to question - or we accuse you of crimes against humanity - for our belief is saving lives while anything that contradicts it puts them all at risk".

Clearly this is an issue of power to 'medicate' people without their truly informed consent - because without discussion, there can be neither information accountable to truth or meaningful consent.

If there is such overwhelming science to back up the claims of the vaxing of otherwise healthy people for diseases they may still contract and spread to others - with actual risks that are downplayed or airbrushed from the record - and a legal system designed to release them from accountability - why is it asserted with such force as if it is fragile and easily undermined? Because it is?

Pharmaceutical rape

Pharmaceutical rape pt.1 by Laurie Oakley

After reading the article featured in Dr David Healy's blog, I commented into its conversation:



I have been educating myself in bridging issues of integrity in observed consciousness (the only one I have ;-) with reflections in our world - of collective consciousness.  There are many destructive and deceitful arenas active within a cultivated normalcy of social invisibility that include medicalisation of our consciousness, of our body; our biology - including toxic exposures and bio-technological interventions to our environment - that themselves are symptomatic of a corruption of the currency of our thinking - such that a pervasive 'institutional' disease embodies a distorted human consciousness - socially and culturally disposed to deny and hide the true power of communication - such that any movement to embody or give witness to a true communication - in feeling and form - will not only meet suppression but which has a conditioned inhibition against being spoken or heard.
I appreciate this article. I support THAT we feel outrage where it is sane and healthy to feel it - and that use this to find communication rather than be baited or triggered into conditioned reaction - which is easily manipulated and used against us.
Trust has been established with regard to a scientific and medical establishment by which we abnegate our responsibility - our voice - our consciousness of discernment - for  external 'authorities' who likewise are conditioned to follow edicts coming from what is effectively a closed cabal of private interests that hide within our wishful worship of science as saviour, like Trojans in a wooden horse. Not that integrity in consciousness is anything but scientific in its willingness for uncovering and sharing fresh perspectives within the already true - but that dis-integrity of consciousness operates a segregative mentality - that is in a sense - held private or masked from open communication so as to engage in power over upon what would otherwise be relationship. Fantasy personae act out unconscious or denied fear and rage - with al the force of such denials.
Sooner or later, if we value consciousness of shared and felt existence, the unseen role of denial has to be addressed and I believe that addressing it politically, socially and individually is one purpose - but that to only address the external symptoms is yet to be diverted from an inner recognition of our re-integrative sanity by a hate hidden in righteousness.
The corruption of consciousness could be summarized as hate, justified and hidden beneath the masking appearance of righteousness. There is nothing new about the mind's capacity to deceive. But Culture in its true sense is our sense of worth and purpose embodied - and this is always something to rediscover anew - or else we fall asleep in forms and appearances that invite and are open to 'other' purposes of ungrounded and un-relational fantasy to usurp.
I didn't know what I would write in joining with this article in spirit - but I share a willingness to find Voice - to find ways of communicating, owning and addressing, that which a loveless and dysfunctional definition of ourselves gives rise to. This calls for a pause from what and who and where our current sense of ourself operates from. For listening within rather than reaction. Perhaps only the revealing or revisiting of traumatic imprinting will allow this willingness to listen - for who 'already knows' has no need to listen - and so operate a mind they think their own - and yet is it their consciousness of presence or is it the mask of adaptation to a 'loveless and fearful world'?

There is an underlying unifying issue in the article that I  recognize - and that is the reclaiming and voicing of the power of communication within a psuedo-culture that has been conditioned NOT to recognize it as communication - because it is already invested in issues of the denial and control of an imposed narrative upon communication, as its identity.
I don't feel to use the term rape in this context - but I see that the imposition or assertion of a deceit or coercive force is NOT a true willingness of communication and indicates a fear or hatred OF relationship itself.
So the 'power' that is enacted on the sacrifice of relational (Life) is not true power but a deceit of un-owned fear, rage and associated sense of Life-denial.
I agree that 'war on is a false framing by which futility and tragedy of perpetual war is guaranteed. (to paraphrase your sentiment!).

I feel to join with you in valuing our own individual responsibility for the language we use - so as to wake up from being conformed by it's shifting and indeterminate usage and be definite as to what we are voicing - regardless whether we uncover new information that revises anything we have said. Then we are extending our presence rather than 'just' voicing opinion. There's a different ring to presence than a presentation couched in 'acceptable' forms. If you don't feel the communication of integrity when living your own - as best you have of it - then be ware! But this is not our cultural conditioning - is it! - We are generally told to 'trust' and conform to - and not challenge or question.

Positive Thinking and the Name Game

IAI.tv discusses mental illness in the context of a pharmacological society.

Positive Thinking and the Name Game


Our Experiencing is really being experienced. Experience of a lack of acceptance, validation, recognition and worth, sets up denial of what is actually felt and needing communication, expression and resolution or completion. While the social context operates even subtle forms of this denial is masquerades dominant or official 'reality' as that to which all others must be blessed or cursed according to its narrative. But its 'blessing' will not include healing or resolution so much as a carrot to offset the stick of management. WHEN an individual does come through to a wholeness of being - he or she will find society very filtering and distorting of what it is willing to accept of such a witness - sometimes waiting until that one is dead and out of any capacity to respond - while making them 'special' as a way of maintaining separations that are implicit to the active sense of identity.


The demand in a cause OUTSIDE ourself is the fear of what is within, and the rage at feeling denied, being displaced from its original imprint. This rage is evident if one questions the belief that any other perspective is available than the diagnosis - for the diagnosis relieves many of a fear of insanity and invalidity- and as such needs to be honoured as a stepping stone that can be moved from if and when there is willingness to expand and embrace more of what is active but hidden.
The search for cure can be pushed into long grass by making sure we look everywhere BUT where the answer is. While on some levels there is a manipulative intent to foster this, at root is is a matter of each ones' self-intimacy or trust in a core integrity of being - that the illness calls for - but which is often interpreted as a lack of. External 'solutions' can offer tempirary stepping stones in a process that needs smaller steps and integration one step at a time. They can simply be synchronous with releasing whatever out-of-true was reflecting as symptoms - and the out-of-true is never a blame or shaming judgement - although blaming and shaming oneself and others is itself out-of-true with a compassionate willingness to embrace what is true in oneself and others.



The making of associations of forms and meanings gives rise to a database mapping mentality of precedent in which forms are equated with fixed meanings and a 'world' of meaning-forms or rigid definitions is contrstructed as an extension of self-concept to which self and society are then conformed. Like for the individual in the writing above, this is not wrong - but a temporary part of a flow that can seem to become stuck - often due to misplaced investment in a model or personality status. Making 'sense' of the world is reinforced by using that 'sense' to predict and effect power over outcomes. In a longer time span, these cultural movements also turn out to be temporary stepping stones in a larger unfolding - but in each age - the paradigm is invisible to a sense of self evidence. The placebo effect can be the desire for healing - but really it is simply a communion of belief within a vibrational relationship. If energy is shared, invited or given permission to move, the step that is taken is within the willingness to accept and cannot exceed it without meeting conflict and denial.



Naming or defining anything is a result of purposeful intent. If that intent is coercive and conforming to a deep but subtly disguised denial of acceptance of feelings and thoughts (by elevating only official reality), then it is that intent that operates a negative agenda in those that accept such imposition in a like sense of a need for being structured from without. Then there is the way it is applied. If the diagnosis is not accorded primary status and the equality and worth of one so diagnosed is recognized and appreciated - then the naming is not being used as a 'spell' so much as a short-cut convenience for practical concerns.
An honest realtionship with one seeking help is to listen to and discern with them what ways they are attracted to or indicating a preference or prediliction for. We need a functional integrative approach to health - not a managerial and restrictive imposition of 'care'. Only those who have a degree of self responsibility for thought and feeling can consciously serve the same in another who may not know where to start - being confused in their sense of foundation or identity.



In the common parlance of the way we usually mean thinking - no. More thinking from the same misidentification - no matter how it is contrived - will not shift or heal or awaken a better foundation from which to live. But taking the statement at literal level, we think ourselves - and then proceed to act from and believe that, we are as we think we are. Thi makes the 'thinking ourselves' an unconscious act relative to the engagement in the sense of self that comes from it. First we have to catch ourself in the act of thinking our self - that is noticing a thought or belief about ourself that is not true but which we use or are habituated to - and which is associated with a negative effect. Making THIS association is a true cause and effect relationship. Because a personality identity with a certain degree of control and choice operates in the world on top of a deeper sense of who we are - and our original imprintings or conditionings - the breakdown of the sense of control or capacity of the personality is disturbing - and much more so in a society that has almost lost all awareness of a deeper relational intimacy of being FOR such an impositional control. We not only can think ourselves better - it is our most fundamental responsibility because all else cascades from the foundational willingness and acceptance. If we think ourselves worse, we bring ourselves to crisis. Society has tried to reconcile and balance both and as such suffers a split mind. To be perfectly adjusted to an insane sociaety is hardly sane! Therefore allow disturbance not to be a sign of sin or sickness in a negative way - but a messenger and a call for health in a way that the mind cant immediate grasp - or it would have done so long ago. Willingness and desire are not coercive force in a 'war on...' whatever - though they may have to stand firm amidst all kinds of old habitual urges and impulses to come clear of being lived by them. Willingness is uncovered - as is true desire. Not ripped away in sudden exposure but felt for and found in.



Medicalizing mental health is a presumptive arrogance and ignorance of those who are blinded not by science - but by what they wish and interpret scientific data to support. But as the primarily pharmacological approach to any sickness - including emotional and mental states once simply accepted and embraced within Life that are now being defined as drug markets- and though that is stark it is simply evident, then the term medical has taken a distorted meaning. The pharma sickness is merely a symptom of our incapacity and unwillingness to own mistakes and be free to move on - and pharma is the most significant vector of sickness in our world today - along with adulteration and toxicity of food and water and air and environmental exposures.

The native sense of 'Medicine' as For Life is not the same as the search for power over Life - that knows no check or bound to its ambition to manually operate Life in its own image. This is the impositional power of the personality writ HUGE - or rather - written at such subtle levels of our energetic biology as to have HUGE consequence of even greater crisis of sickness and dysfunction.

I write in a willingness for witnessing to a heart and mind connected Life; for a reintegrative willingness in place of a fear and denial driven sense of need to control - which begins with our definitions and must end there - because we will never exceed our string place except we yield it to a greater or more embracing and aligned perspective. And yielding to our own being is not being taken over by 'something else' - but more that 'something else' has gotten into our thinking that doesn't need to be there and which clearly seen would fall away. But is it very strongly hidden - in plain sight - by a tacit societal denial that nonetheless operates with significant force of carrot and stick to demand obedience.

Getting off the meds may be more challenging than getting through whatever was intially used to justify going on them. The same applies to our thinking. However, whatever the symptoms, there is a significantly felt shift to integrity when aligning with a core sense of worth - and doing so will manifest synchronicities of oppportunity, that may not be what you expect, one step at a time, in a true sense of direction rather than a confusion of directives.

Use what you have, while you know you have it, to grow appreciation of what you have and are. Or what has you out-of-true will frame you as 'too little, not enough and no good at, not worth it' and then reflect a world in like image. Energy and feeling needs to move, acting from what is moving you in a self honouring way rather than focusing in thinking. Then 'when ye thinketh not' - amidst doing something you are aligned with, insight upon your thoughts rises, and your thinking capacity - if fools don't rush in - can used to clothe what your heart knows in terms your head can accept and reflect to the heart in gratitude.

Trying to be who you are NOT is bound to result in all kinds of sickness. Fearing who you may actually be revaled or exposed to be - keeps you from dissolving fears in a clear intent. So in some sense You are the Answer to what presents itself as you- the problem, but the former is a relational embrace of what is true of you and the latter is a state of independent (sic) isolation. But relationship is first found within - perhaps with the companioning of others but we need support for healing - not for sickness. If we use sickness to get something or even to get at someone - then we could find more open and honest ways - like asking or getting it out in the open.

Mental-emotional health is part of a relational balance and an out of balance society generates and feeds off sickness. It makes no more sense to blame society than to blame an individual. Blame is the disease, not the cure. Limiting consciousness down and down is the elevating of a tiny elitism. Sickness in society without any true cultural grounding is a collective insanity - but noticing that is the opportunity of healing - not a call for hate and blame and punishment... unless you insits. But what goes out is the measure of what comes back. So in thinking ourselves better - we are discerning as to what we take in and validate as our own thinking - because that must be measure or kind as to what goes out. Breaking a negative loop from an inner recognition rather than an outer description.

Steering into a skid momentarily allows traction between the wheels and the road and the steering wheel 'works again. Fear of feeling is an unwatched and overactive imagination. Trying to eradicate or get away from is a refusal to pause and open to the possibility that something is trying to communicate here. A cut heals - so would any imbalance - given the conditions for healing to occur. There's an arena of expansion: facilitating or creating the conditions in which healing naturally occurs. We are so expert in the opposite that we can use that as an inverse template from which to gain inspiration.

Astro-Grass!

Medical Marijuana Legalized on Entire Continent of Australia

This article is disinformation. As a commenter Jerry Cook says:

Bogus misleading article! I also live in Australia, and no, its not legal in any significant way yet.
FROM FARM TO PHARMACY (controlling govt minister/secretary Sussan Ley) is for Big Pharma only, nothing else, not home grow or dispensaries using the whole plant. No flowers or seeds for sale, just partial help pills & sprays that can never work as good as the whole natural plant. No profits for BP in whole plant cures or use (does not suit their work process or profits), just plant parts or synthetics for poor results & long use. Its not for general use home growing or dispensaries. Read the whole new law. Any growing permits & licensing is set for Big Pharma only, approved or not by Secretary Sussan Ley only.

My comment:

The article begins ‘Will the US be next?”

The US Gov has a patent on a medical use of marijuana. Look it up and read. The patent reveals the health knowledge that is NOT acted upon. The sudden introduction of an international top-down astro-turfed "movement" is by the elitists for the elitists.

They can not it seems, imagine benefit for all but seem hell-bent on keeping their nightmares at bay. Investment in a lie demands the cost of the Soul.

As the mask is revealed it falls away to expose a hatred of Life. Such feelings offer a timely context to withdraw allegiance from what is revealed to be without integrity, or we lose our own and are pulled down with it.

Denial is not the power over Life - but a mistaken concept of Life operating insanely. Denying power to denial is aligning wholly in Life and accepting it's perspective in place of the idea-identity-illusion of power.

Give unto Caesar what is due unto 'power in the world' and give unto Life what is due unto Life. Expanding perspective is the release of false framing - and the linear tunnel vision that such scarcity dictates.

Fear of sickness

Government rejects calls for meningitis B vaccine to be given to all children
Thousands sign meningitis B petition but Department of Health says giving jab to all children is not cost effective

My comment - which the Guardian deleted.

The IDEA of vaccination appeals to fear of sickness but its true story is not as magical as many wish or as scientific as many claim. The book 'dissolving illusions' is a mind-opening read.
I am not opposed to health care choices and if after a consideration of information available, people choose to use vaccination and boosters to minimize their sense of threat - then that is their choice. But with a pharmacologically directed narrative there is an extremely forceful emotional charge directed at anything that challenges, questions or widens the perspective of that narrative.

The association that vaccine = protection has been imprinted as an exclusive truth in our collective consciousness. It is not free and it is not proven to be effective or without risks. Because of the reputation of scientific institutions and the zeal of the vaccine lobby, full information on vaccines is not shared. Vaccination operates like a pseudo-religion made out of a coercive sense of enforcing the 'good' on others  or else it would be open to transparency and accountability. The pharmacological model is not the only true path to health! Iatrogenic sickness and related deaths are huge in scope and synergistic in causality. Corporate ownership and control of our biology and environment is dedicated to extracting profit. There is a right place for making profit, but what does it profit us to gain such a Soul-less world?

A Tale of Two Placebos

A Tale of Two Placebos
This Ars article offers a self-righteous anti homoeopathy agenda - perhaps in it presumption of victory over magic and enlightened alignment with T Truth.
I believe this anti homeopathy movement has been set off and encouraged by design - as the movement away from the allopathic pharmaceutical interventions and management of sickness makes drug-whores out of doctors - because such is their essential training  and function in a technocratically engineered society.
Anyway - here is my response...



Definitions frame and filter perception of whatever actually is moving or communicating itself within awareness.
The rigidly set, 'subject-denying' imposition of conceptual framing is a kind of 'anti-magic' that asserts itself in righteousness by every means to subvert and undermine and invalidate the Movement of Being that is tangibly felt Life. It does so by attempting to solve its conflicted sense of self in external terms.

This dissociation or splitting of consciousness has counterparts in reflection and reaction that indeed are also magical attempts to resolve a conflict by internal or subjective assignments of power and blame and protection.

The core emotional state of split consciousness is one that ranges between terror and rage, and compounded with guilt, blame and shame.

The surface personality structure is a masking of such raw imprinting in which the conflicted issues surface as dissonance of impotence and frustration in which the 'reality' of the perceptions are adapted to in order to survive or indeed prevail over.

The missing or denied quality in the conflicted sense of self is relationship and communication, and these are substituted for by a hierarchy of roles in which status and identity is derived externally - as a result of conditioned experience - asserted to be one's independent 'self'.

To be truly listened to, cared for, extended worthiness, recognized by another living being, is a key transformative context in which what has not found communication in expression can rise and become the shift in which a re-integrative movement of consciousness or 'healing', undoes the segregative dissociation and is experienced as a more aligned and less conflicted sense of self and relational experience or world.

Ultimately the world is props that serve the narrative or core definitions of the focusing consciousness. Different personality make-up attracts different kinds of 'permission slips' through which to allow the release of limiting and invalidating baggage.

One of the most destructive of which is the idea that there is but one true FORM (or definition) of Truth. This is inherently rejecting and denying or invalidating of all else. While this idea operates 'self-concept' there is no relationship, communication or free will - only a compulsive dictate issuing from the distortion-filter of the idol taken as self.

The most subtle perceptions and conceptions of existence are of vibrational correspondences. To put it in simple metaphor, you ONLY receive the channel you are programmed into receiving and if you take that as The Truth, you are necessarily unaware of the full range of frequency of experience AND  the tuning dial of free willing receptivity.

The ongoing abuse and denial of the free will by an enslaving elite 'consciousness' is entirely dependent upon the supporting role of the denied in maintaining such a power relationship of juxtaposing hidden denials. Guilt and fear led beliefs are not free willing and in this sense are not true of you as one worthy of being recognized and received. If such reception is anathema to who you feel and assert yourself to be, then you have no desire to embrace Life but only to deny it - and so you choose to meet your reflection as being unable to feel and know and share the relational Movement of Being Itself.

Don't be blinded by science. It is not more or less that a tool to serve the purpose given it. The purpose you give it or accept and share in by your own participance.

Homoeo-phobia or attack on Consciousness?

Ars Technica published an article on homoeopathy that felt to me to be propaganda for a personal agenda rather than sharing communication. The attack on homoeopathy is a current political agenda being driven by a self righteous and arrogant materialism that may or may not know it fuels and furthers pharmaceutical monopoly.

 - - -

I wrote this to the article and the commentators who associate truth with arrogance:

Once people believe something true, it is accepted as a foundation from which to interpret, experience and relate within - as if such an identity is in fact who and what they are and as if the world actually is as their thought defines.
The identity then naturally forms to seek validity and reinforcement and to resist, overcome or avoid threat to what is held to be true and one's self - and thus operates as a distorting filter to the actuality of what we truly are in asserting a bubble reality that can just as well align with fearful self-denying belief as with loving self-extending belief. Indeed belief can operate a reversal of consciousness such that love is redefined as fearful and fear redefined as protective to oneself against 'fearful' love. The 'need' to be right riding roughshod over the will of others just as it does within one's self.
That belief works is evident. The power beneath belief is the power in and of which reality is experienced as point of view. The attempt to manipulate belief or use it as mask merely adds levels of complexity and confusion over what is actually believed.
The belief we have and are a power unto ourself over life and self and others is 'playing out its bubble reality'. But the belief and the wish that causes us to want to accept it is at a cost of a true awareness of the power and nature OF consciousness AS reality - which is unlimited in its integrity as in its scope.
Wholeness IS health. Division and conflict operates sickness as a scam, as a racket. As a device through which to assert power to separate will over Life. Not that this applies to the one suffering their belief for they know not what they do, because they know not who they are.

So then challenge your belief system by doing a homeopathic proving. See my response above.

I replied:

I have experience of homoeopathy 'working' despite or regardless that I did not believe it would work. I cannot tell you 'how' it worked - and I cannot tell you how this ever present moment of awareness exists. In fact there are innumerable aspects of 'how' that are beyond my capacity to know - and as I am not seeking to know in that sense - I don't need to know. I am communicating without knowing 'how' - although the mind can overlay all sorts of models as to what it wants to believe is going on. When people invest exclusively in one true model, they become ignorant of other perspectives and arrogantly seek to prevail. It doesn't matter what the model is, its an investment of identity.


I don't feel any desire or need to prove anything to anyone, nor to apologise or justify my own experience of being - and I extend the same freedom I accept for myself.

Controversy and conflict are attractive and exciting to some. I feel inflammation is a term for sickness. One can scratch it and manage it and make an identity out of it but it is not truly joyous. Each to their own.

A cure is a reawakening of conscious health - not merely management of disease. Materialism limits humanity to mechanism. I'm ok with noticing mechanism in act but not with the drive to control Life thereby. I am still in the Science that seeks to uncover what is already true, rather than assert an establishment model in the name of the one true way. Frankly I see scientific establishments as corrupted by corporate agenda and their ego or self-image. Not that scientist are unworthy but that scientism is used as part of managing perception - which is neither the job of science nor an honourable intent.

Ultimately, whether something is 'true' is not an asserted definition so much as a yielding whatever obstructs awareness of it. I clearly 'come from' a different set of presumptions than you - but that doesn't mean I don't honour your own unique journey of discovery.

I received this in return:

Good on ya'. Its nice to exchange with someone who actually has experience with homeopathy. I didnt read that into your post. I assumed I was dealing with the usual so-called "skeptic" whose understanding of homeopathy is limited to an intellectual level: "its too dilute; it violates the _known_ laws of chemistry and physics therefore it cant work"

I find it so often, this unwillingness to challenge ones own paradigm. I was there at one point, myself. I decided for other reasons that my life wasnt working, so I decided to start getting out of that box and trying other approaches that challenged my beliefs. Some worked, some didnt but it got me out of my very circumscribed way of thinking and being.

I think a homeopathic proving conducted by "skeptics" would work on two levels. They would have a direct experience which is more powerful than an intellectual understanding AND they would have objective data that they could evaluate.

To one who chose to ridicule our conversation:

Funniest thing I've read in a while.  Thanks!  I guess my 'spirit' needs some kind of a tune-up so I can understand things on a higher level.

_

Flippancy will one day flop and flip. Enjoy yourself - but of course. But neither you nor anyone do not owns or controls a 'Spirit' and the illusion that you do (as an 'independent thinker' is the basis of believing that your own understanding has usurped it. And while your control reflects your confidence, you may swagger as you will. What is generally presumed to be 'understanding' cannot but eclipse more inclusive perspectives - for all that a higher level is, is a matter of perspective - not of personal status or accomplishment.

Nothing is so blinding as the belief one already knows. When you need to understand on a higher level you will find your own way to access it, but while you don't it is in the pile of discards.

Yielding what we think we know is the way to access perspective. If what you have works for you, why demean or invalidate what others find working for them? Is that not an insecurity on your part? Is resort to ridicule the first sign of an un-owned self questioning?

"Your dealing with a dog that wont let go of this bone".

No I am sharing a willingness without coercion or persuasion. The attempt to change others only invokes opposition and defence, whilst revealing one's own need to seek what one must therefore believe one lacks.

The mind in argument with itself sees argument everywhere by putting it there. While victory seems meaningful, such conflict will be treasured. But when it is seen to cost one's treasure, it will be abandoned.

Some things that touched me in times past, flowered in their time of readiness. Who is to judge?

To others comments on the placebo effect:

Prozac is a placebo with additional payloads. Internal reports revealed placebo to be 100% as effective as prozac. Public reports edited that to 80%. The nocebo is also very effective - such as being told you have only a few months to live. Placebo is much much more pervasive in everything including the 'power of the established reality'. Belief - like so many things - has surface masking complexities and primary core components. As a surface masking persona, you have no capacity to challenge or question or believe core belief because the persona is made OF it and to hide or protect it from exposure.

Consciousness is not the 'hard problem'. It is the soft and permeable Answer - but only to a like willingness and not to the set of rigidly defined self-assertion. Arrogance and ignorance operate self-delusion. Willingness Listens, discerns and conducts.

Someone responded to my posting with a phrase as if I had written it:

[Hi. I came here to claim that magic is real]

You are welcome to your self-empowerment philosophy. I think you're a loon.

My reply to them:

Did I write "I came here to claim that magic is real"?
Actually?
No - that is a personal interpretation.

Interpretation is a kind of magic. It can make things seem to be other than they are.
That it occurs is real, The experience one gets from it can be considered really experienced, but the interpreted reality is not true.
What I think of you says more about me than it would about you so I use what I think to learn more about what is running beneath my thought.
What you think of me is not my concern. That you extend some sense of a communication is received gratefully.
The power of the mind is unlimited - AND it can create the experience of being an almost powerless but separate mind within an external reality to which it is almost entirely subject. Of course one is free to believe whatever one chooses to accept - but having laid a foundation, the rest will follow within the parameters laid down - unless the foundation is brought into question.

I believe that much of what is generally accepted as 'my thinking' is a sort of surface routine that is a running of background processes that are not true of us at all.

Engineering self extinction

FDA Pushing To Regulate Homeopathy Out of Existence?

An article on Green Med Info

My comment:

Asserted ' scientific truths' used as weapons by a sickness racket pretending to serve health.

The politics of sickness as a vector of control extends globally through every aspect of our biology of body-mind and environment. It does this through corrupting cells and capturing regulatory systems and natural defensive capabilities to operate AGAINST its host.

When an idea runs rogue in the body politic, it seeks out and kills all that might threaten its survival. Thus the fraud is often the loudest voice shouting quackery! Or the gullible are set up and triggered into enacting an agenda by which they believe themself superior, special, advanced in their career or remuneration or protected from otherwise adverse events or conditions.

Those who have no eyes to see, will not see. War or willingness is a choice. But war dictates and frames choices only to perpetuate its agenda. Truth is sacrificed to the 'god' of war.

Militant 'believers' in science are not practitioners of a willingness and curiosity to uncover truth. The model has become a power base by which to predate upon and exploit, that operates a much more pervasive tyranny of "church and state" than the Vatican ever could. But the real tyranny is within our own thinking. What is projected and reflected as a sickness of humanity upon ourselves and our world is the result of a kind of false parasitic thinking, in which fear subverts and replaces integrity with 'war thinking' - with an identity founded upon and embodying conflict.

International 'trade' agreements such as TTIP are being set up globally to subordinate sovereignty not only of national governments relative to corporate agenda, but of our biology to the likes of Monsanto. There is no way to see this being enacted in our midst while sucking on the worldview of a manufactured and managed identity. Apparently protected from its deeper fears but actually  being manipulated through them.

Therefore the correcting response is to uncover and face our fears so as to no longer be suckered into coercive and manipulative deceits posing as saviours.

"Yes it works in practice - but does it work in theory?" !

Empiric medicine was engineered out of the medical profession by Rockefeller Carnegie money and malice working through the funding and setting up of teaching facilities.

Oh look up something like prozac fraud if you really think the wolves are not wearing scientist's clothing. "Unreason' is within the distorted thinking of the corrupted establishment - not out there in conspiracy nuts and quackery.

" It cures. So what! Is it patentable? Now you are talking.... Multiple side effects? - a revenue stream. Peer reviews and FDA approval?  - We have established a network of trusted individuals in all the right places. Media? - Yes we can set the narrative. Opposition? - People don't really know what they want. We can help them recognize their true interests via any number of proven strategies. We own the opposition. Lies? - There are no lies in war and war is the name of the game in which losing is the only sin. Truth? Its what you make it, son - now listen to me...."

"I cant believe it's not toxic!" The industrial porcessing of humanity for consumption.

A Telegraph article on the true nature of butter relative to margerine
'Have the butter every time,' says cardiologist. Should I ditch my statins?  



Perhaps... an awakening to the kind of consciousness that perverts all things to its own manipulative agendas, is at hand?

That which has a vested interest in your destabilised, fearful and divided dependence on what it then provides. (Bad cop/good cop).

The term 'myth' is devalued by being used as a substitute for lie, falsehood or error.

But the understanding of the power of myth and symbol in our consciousness is highly developed in those who seek to manipulate perceptions, identities and achieve undue influence thereby. Propaganda is war and PR is it's peacetime epithet. A state of war has been waged within consciousness by the subverting of scientific discoveries to the financial and corporate power structures of our day. But unlike the religious manipulations of the past who coerced populations that they would be free IF they obeyed - in some future state of being, the modern sophistication delivers the belief you are free while choosing to conform to a state of serfdom or slavery. Mindcontrol is the result of understandings of the way human consciousness works, in the hands and intent of the few.

But to be fair I also note that the 'consumer' (so defined and so acting out), DEMANDS unconsciousness, by neglecting and giving away power, to those agencies or corporations that it elects (by its actions) to manage and supply it so as to leave it free to explore and express its 'identity' within the safety net of a reality in which its own consciousness is NOT implicated and therefore all the evils and threats to wellbeing can be painted OUT THERE. Yet this is only a smokescreen for what is feared to be true and which advertising and media examples reinforce relentlessly to those who suck it in.

Unless we get our house in order, it is open to thieves in the night and guests who outstay their welcome and who have no kind intent beneath a veil of 'helping'.

The botnet in digital terms, reflects the infiltration and control of remote servers and computers. The same applies in terms of society. It has been going on as long as manipulators could find the technology to effect it - but technology has advanced way faster than any honest openly shared conscious accounting for its use.

When a scam is uncovered - damage limitation works asap to obfuscate and redirect attention. The true scale of the scam against populations is fearfully mind-buckling and THAT is why there is such a deep urge to UNCONSCIOUSNESS! But that only plays into fear and doesn't allow a shift in perspective in which clear steps of practical self-value make a significant difference.
Without a true and clear self valuing - nothing meaningful can be achieved. But the defensive and segregating attempt to manipulate ones own consciousness is not and cannot be a true foundation - and so it must disintegrate when one no longer has the capacity to prop it up.
But that is Good News - even if not recognized yet.

Is big pharma really a racket?

New drugs 'can cure skin cancer', scientists claim
Skin cancer suffers could be cured of the disease with new breakthrough drugs, experts claimed, as they hailed the "beginning of a new era".

The above from Telegraph 'news' feed.

Is big pharma really a racket?
While anything that actually works has obvious value - the treatments that are allowed, supported, funded and reported fairly on are very heavily biased in terms of proprietary profit making 'solutions'. Have a look at 'medical racket' on ahealedplanet.net
In so very many ways, our virtual reality costs us the Earth. I call it our virtual reality because it is not our actual life - but the one we think we are living in which we think we are free. But it always leads to a dead end.
So much of our social and economic conditioning, is farming and managing life for power and profit of the very very few over the very very many.
We are free to re-evaluate our thinking from the most fundamental ground of our being.
So many are conditioned against even the possibility of this and cannot believe that they are more than their thinking allows, and so they don't even look - but follow their thinking - which they think is their truth that gives life and takes it away.
The thinking that we have based our self and society on is a dead end, so it has to shift!

We don't WANT to understand what life is and how it works while we WANT to control it for self-isolating agendas. Natural being is NOT allowed in 'modern' living. What is natural? Do you look to your head to answer? That's what is unnatural. If you do it to yourself, don't be surprised that society does it to itself!

We are free to limit freedom while believing it makes us free, but at some point the beliefs cannot be maintained - even with a dreadful stick or a juicy carrot! (Not many juicy carrots these days, because the dread is of such a pitch that has to be maintained, or the spell will break).

Don't let fear rob you.

Health 'carry on'

Plans to add yet another layer of 'disincentive' to those who are falsifying accounts to avoid penalties of applied disincentives!


What is needed is the restoration of trust. A punishment culture might seem to be a way to control and manage life into shape - but in and of itself it can only further undermine trust.
People are not machines and the people who run institutions on purely mechanical lines are also not machines.

We have as yet no language in which to articulate the heart, but have leant ever more into the dependency and tyranny of the machine-thinking - for loveless thinking is not actually connecting with reality.

Loveless thinking is deceptive, and the more who subscribe to it, the more its seems normal or nature, but it is a mental illness and calls for correction.

While the heart can be used as a term for emotional overlay or reaction, it is more properly a term for the wholeness of all the parts sharing one purpose.

If we run our world as if it were a business - in this corporate era of parasitical relations upon its 'consumers and support system', it will run as a program of private self interest.

No amount of incentives and disincentives applied externally, can substitute for the calling and value expressed in real relationships in shared purpose.

The thinking that we build on is sick and the world about us reflects this.
Perhaps things have to get a lt worse before they can be turned upon a new foundation - but individually, we do not have to wait for others before we ourselves align in a more conscious heartfelt communication of all that is "not allowed" to be spoken for fear of penalty or rejection.

'Ordinary people' (that's most of us) come across numerous examples of bad practice or lack of care and ways in which the system itself is set up that works against people with care and conviction doing their job - but once darkness has been declared the new standard, there is no one willing to change the (dead) light bulb.

Real presence and real communication means treating each other with honour and respect or 'actually relating'.

The presence of joy in conscious purpose is more than therapeutic - it is a symptom of true health!
The focus on the body and the mechanical is feeding an endless appetite that no amount of bio or hi-technology can do more than grow!

Yet the corporate interests of bio-hi-tech are a humungous power lobby that have replaced a culture that had a vocational caring with puppets to systems that use the word care without actually caring - because caring occurs within a relationship and is not a mechanically contrived 'delivery'.

Shift happens!
But the investment in what does not and cannot work has to be recognized.
Everything comes from our ideas of what we are and what life is for - all of it.
Change the foundation and all that comes from it will change with it.

Coercive intent does not promote health!

Posted on a page at the Telegraph regarding the plans to make trainees have to pass a year as a health care assistant, looking after patients’ basic needs, rather than giving medical treatment.
- - -

One does not improve the quality of care by adding more layers of onerousness but by recognizing the already onerous impositions upon the situation - and releasing the onerous element.

Kindness is not 'added' by training but lost to fearful conditions and perceptions. By cultivating conditions of so called accountability (blame), we cripple ourselves in every way.

To engineer human beings is an attempt to force them to be as human thinking  would have them be, and such thinking as has become machine-like and indeed quite lacking in humanity.

Real relationships are the key to everything and this must begin or be founded upon a real relationship within ourself. While people seek to suffer a lie as if it were true and tacitly join in such mentality, they have no voice, offer no witness and sacrifice their essential kindness to a tyranny of imposed dictates - whose thinking is so conditioned into our mind that we do not see the false from the true and are easily kept in line with 'disincentives'.

Yet such a society becomes increasingly unable to operate in more of a wholeness, but only the part for which it is fitted, trained and paid. The fragmentation of our shared being into specialized machine parts is a violence upon us when it is motivated or held in place by fear.

Real relationship is the most subversive activity to the machine-mind and yet seeks not to overthrow or hurt, but to extend and grow trust and true communication - despite having to live within an empire in which 'Caesar' demands his dues.

Love is not a manipulation or trading of special favour - but the very heart and nature of existence - and this CAN be uncovered in any situation as either the truth of what is going on - or the essential aspect that is blocked, or denied and thus called for.

Love in action is a discernment arising from an actual connection of actually relating or listening or truly seeing, and is supported by training.

The desire to help and serve others is a calling in our hearts that may lead us to choose to be a nurse or a teacher or an anything that can serve a genuine need. There is no place for a 'Calling' in current thinking and sadly, when new thought 'discovers' it, it will be yet more 'good ideas' applied ignorantly.

Everything in our thinking is tending to divorce ourselves from our love and substitute it with a manual control. This is the world we create together, and it can only be a self-seeking that does not even truly fulfil the self.

Receive the reminder of your true worth by a willingness to see it in others in place of the judgements that otherwise see a number or a client or a patient as something to process, which is to say, don't see them at all.

As we give so do we receive. The world we live in is reflected moment by moment, according to what thoughts we accept and therefore act out from. But addicted to our thinking, we are not willing to look honestly at what seems to give us control over life.

There is some serious accounting to be made - and money is the least of it - though wealth scarcity will be seen to be inherent in the value system to which we have subscribed.

Thanks for the opportunity to share here.

A lack of cultural integrity - Staffs Hospital horror

I wrote this in a desire to look at the underlying mental and cultural context that is to my view, part and parcel of such inhumanity as has been uncovered in The Staffordshire hospital horror.


The ascendancy of rationality applied with a divisive and piecemeal analysis as a scientific discipline has subverted our thinking as a culture of control. This expresses itself as a corporate/consumer model when writ large - and a independent private mind writ small.

The emergence of digital processing technologies and connectivity has extended the reach of both corporate interest and of private consumption.

Information and communication have largely been subverted as a method of managing perceptions and manipulating minds.

But underneath all of this is the consumptive mindset of 'getting'.

The identification with 'getting' is considered normal or natural to us whenever we identify private or partial interests above true or whole interests, but it is compulsive, mechanical and superficial. It is disconnected from any true cultural inspiration and runs as a mechanical fulfillment of transactional tasks and targets met without actually expressing a relationship of trust. The lack of a community of trust is evident not only between the providers of the service and its recipients - but in the culture of the workplace and from the top down.

Devaluing human lives, in business and provision of services, subordinates real communication and relationship  to a pervasive culture of fitting into a machine that does not care and can not care. The combination of a blame culture with a litigious self seeking 'entitlement' as well as an absurdly cocooned risk averse orientation to life is a severely inhibiting set of conditions. Along with this is the corporate control of Big Money, and Big tech and Big Pharma, such that rich and powerful lobbies tend to set  or heavily influence the agenda in what they see as their best interests or simply seeing answers in terms of their own specialization or approach.. This effectively means people are processed for profit, in every walk of life including 'health care'.

The socialization and training of people to embody such a society undermines our native intelligence and buys us off with extra or extended powers of technical interventions and observations.

The idea that Man is a machine reduces us to the mechanical and this itself is an insanity or sickness as well as a blindness. The mentality beneath this IS a machine and needs to be seen as such from a truly living perspective.

The only way to renew a culture of inspiration that embodies the practical qualities of a truly connected or loving commitment in life, is by example. Where what people say and what they do is congruent, it witnesses to a power of life rather than power over life.

Society - western culture - is seriously out of alignment with the truth of life, and nothing will or can truly work when it works against our true nature and fulfillment as a mechanism outside the wisdom and guidance of the heart.

This is not sentimental - but a process that is transformational. The avoidance of real relationship is the refusal of life as transformational. The roots of our sickness are hidden by design and much of what is studied at the level of form is in fact the activity of camouflage and deception that works below the threshold of our consciousness. Our ideas shape our mind and reflect as our experience and behaviour. Look at the ideas that are active and discern honestly or be controlled by them unknowing!

Thankyou for your attention.


This is a general background response to the Staffordshire Hospital horror. Commented to an article:

Mid-Staffs: the inquiry has missed the mark

 "The terrible failures at Stafford Hospital were not about resources. They were about deep-rooted cultural problems that top-down recommendations will do little to change"

Patients starve and die of thirst on hospital wards

This highly emotive headline and story appeared in the Daily Telegraph

Step aside from the 'story' that grabs emotional reaction, the urge to judge and to blame and to add yet more layers of control in the name of merely 'DOING SOMETHING!". Feel or discern the template nature of what is being shared as our 'culture'. This lack of real involvement or relationship is not merely true in the care of the sick and the elderly but in almost every aspect of our relationships, only in this case it shows up in such blatantly unacceptable forms that cannot be glossed over, or massaged with spin and statistics.

Look beyond the characters in the story and see the ideas that make the script. Ideas are not Manna - but insofar as they were ever truly inspired they are derived from a heartfelt and passionate involvement in life, in relationship and in a spirit of discovery.

The mentality of control has appeal to the unwary, because it promises security and extension of power, but what it delivers is so far from the real safety of our true being that it beggars belief.

To try to communicate here in this comment is also to invite or reach past the mentality of control, because it is so deeply entrenched as our default identity that it is not open to question or re evaluation and is perfectly defended in its own thinking and its own personal interpretive experience. It believes it already knows and it seeks to answer the experience of breakdown with yet more control - or failing that with a sort of passive aggressive disengagement; withdrawing to fight another day.

Without the context of a culture of ideas that support it, the heart or wholeness of being in action, has to work like a double agent, not only to extend true service to the need but to 'survive' or cope within a system that does not see it, honour it, value it or support it.
 A little understanding is a dangerous thing in that a desire to 'save the world' can and does open only enough to the source of inspiration to get the answers that it then tries to personally impose upon the whole. These constant 'revolutions' or rebranding with 'new thinking' often disrupt what was already naturally working and introduce new layers of complexity and control that often embody the appeasement of anxieties.

What is going on is not so different from the self justifying thinking that we all tend to employ to justify our withdrawal or lack of true presence, in that we present the 'doings' of caring, the forms of 'love' or the rights of entitlement and protection.

The consumer society is not really about products and economy but about being herded, managed, medicated and CONTROLLED in return for a substitute life. This mentality of control does not impose itself on another, so much as grow from a passivity of caring and attention amidst a surface tension of chatter, busyness and distraction.

Like a spambot, we are each compromised in our liability to be hijacked unawares and this goes much deeper than our thinking itself can uncover because the basis of our thinking is part of the 'problem'.

As long as we see the 'problem' primarily outside our own mind, intent and involvement, we actually feed it by validating the terms in which it is set.

The problem of loving  - and all the fruits thereof - is one of resistance or refusal to involvement - which take the form of self-justifying fictions. The mindset of blame is chief among such fictions. Guilt appeals as a means of control but it absolutely undermines the functionality of all that is love from being honoured and embodied - and it makes its own counterfeit ideas of love as a sweetener for a bitter poison.

Common sense cries out at the story of this article - for anyone with no training at all  - but with a grain of compassion - could extend the basic humanity that would make such stories imossible.

There is a capacity for compassion - the compass of identification that includes others as our self - in all of us, but it is never the result of coercive controls founded in distrust fear and 'the need to be seen to be doing something' so as to avoid blame or litigation.

The extension of trust is our most primary creative response. It is not without discernment and is not giving in order to get but is the very Movement of Being Itself - which expresses as relating in shared purpose.

This may be corrupted in our thought but it remains uncoverable to our feeling and that direct experience is the guidance for our thought.
The arrogance of our thinking is laughable if nipped at the bud, but it is tragic in time as the misery of our human experience



And to one of a plethora of comments urging punitive response I wrote:

 Yes ! Stone them!

Nothing like fear of vilification, litigation and criminal punishment to bring out the best in all of us! Our God is a Holy Righteousness that will purge all the scum and filth from our minds and cast it out into darkness!

Please understand, the above is a dramatic device to illustrate a point.

 Opinions are cheap - and emotionally inflamed opinions are reactive and ill considered. I do not say this to anyone personally or single this comment as specially so - but that the answers will come from a true process of communication and not from imposing rules and penalties. We already have the law, and if a situation calls for the law then use it.

Communication is so difficult that psychiatric or psychological attempts to facilitate it often fail. The mind is very complex and mimics the forms of communication in a manipulative intent.
We herd together in collusions of shared definitions - in the name of covering our arse/ass. That is to say a kind of emotional and psychological self protective impulse (automatically) shuts down real communication unless such impulse can be seen to be causing or reinforcing distress rather than healing it.

Is moral outrage is an attempt to push away the unthinkable and the unfaceable in our own mind? I say that until we have found healing in our own mind, we seek to effect it by acting it out on the world - on our relationships.

Of course there is a call for correction, but in order to see the true nature of the situation we must first make sure we are corrected of a distorted vision - and act and speak from the heart that listens and discerns moment by moment - rather than embody a mechanism of conditioned reaction.

Care fees paid AFTER you die

Trying to control life seems natural to a selfishnessness that sees everything in terms of its own interests. But it always paints itself into a corner, struggles, wears itself out and dies.

The breakdown of economic capacity to support the extraordinarily complex and conflicted entanglement is the revealing of lost or false foundation.

Be willing to question the foundations of the beliefs and ideas that are expressing a failed culture as a living alternative to persisting in an old conflicted and conflicting mentality.

Old ideas had their time, but become idolized out of context. To live within a context of unquestioned beliefs which run like a template may appeal to manipulators - but there's no fresh and lovely Life in it.

To be baited or seduced into grievance and reaction is to be sold a sense of self righteousness in exchange for your Real presence.

Your Real presence can feel the same in others. Care for all that is truly Home.

Cancer awareness campaign 'had little impact'

There are many factors beneath the seemingly simple effort to get more people to check themselves against a risk of illness.

Information overload, lack of faith in government, lack of faith in modern approaches in medicine, busy lives in which little time is available to get off the treadmill of events and pause to consider anything, a natural defence against being persuaded, manipulated, sold or convinced of anything (relates to information overload).
A disposition not to worry and so a reluctance to start suspecting everyone and everything of being a threat unless more of a prompt is felt to do so, fatigue relating to the risk averse (fearful) attempt to control (manage) life from a scientific (alienated) perspective.

And of course there are some who - for their own reasons or for no 'good' reason - attempt to hide or deny their fears and need more than a government campaign to begin to acknowledge and pass through such fears. (I don't see human beings who are not in one way or another suffering limitation as a result of denial of guilts and fears - but it takes different forms for different people).

But is it the government's responsibility to present itself as an authority on health and spend large sums on futile attempts to manage those who need to awaken and grow responsibility for their health on a greater basis than a dependency on system that tends to substitute for it.

Where there is need, there is a call for attention and to discern the true nature of the need so as to meet it.
But the mindset of what could in modern terms be called the 'war on sickness' is not itself rooted in Life so much as in an ideology that ultimately cannot work.

I am in no way intimating that love cannot or does not operate through the relationships available in serving to heal and encourage us amidst difficulty.

But the basis of our thinking is not only questionable - but must be re evaluated, because there simply isn't the financial capacity to provide the kind of health service that has evolved as our current expectations of entitlement.

There are many aspects of our 'lifestyle' or culture, that are unhealthy - starting with the way we think - how we relate to ourselves, each other and  life itself, to all the inevitable expressions that spring forth from that.

The wish to live on the surface and not have to grow through our fears and move beyond our grievances looks for technology (external means) to protect and support it's self-assertion.
Life is forever breaking down our defences; not because it is hostile or malignant - but because the attempt to defend our 'self' against Life, is in error.

We tacitly collude in mutual agreements by which to justify ourselves to ourselves and each other - but if in fact we are presenting a mask, then the energetics of what is really going on are not being honoured or given true expression.

The attempt to mask over our true being has led to identifying almost completely with the mask - and not be in intimate relationship with our very Life. It is a wonder that our minds and bodies function as well as they do under the circumstances to which we put them.

There are all these rules as to what is and isn't the way it works - and then there is Life that gives rise to wonder - and in all sorts of ways, fulfilment beyond a rulebound and fearbound existence. I suggest to you that this is relevant to health!

Thank you for your attention.

Comments on UK NHS

 Sketches of comment added to a post calling for a more vocational culture to our National Health service.

The system of 'health service delivery' has been quantified and rendered into pseudo market terms. The processing of 'customers' often involves an impersonal lack of courtesy. The increasing reliance on ever expanding (costly) hi tech health management solutions - along with never ending retraining can lose all sense of proportion when basic nursing care human dignity is subordinated to mechanical functions. Love, to be itself, must be practically embodied. It doesn't have to be 'called' love - but it does have to be tangible care and not 'provision of care services'. There is so much in our current setup that works against the willingness of those who feel a vocational calling - in NHS as in the country as a whole. I consider it a spiritual vacuum - not in terms of religion per se - but in terms of a culture of inspiration, trust and cooperation. Relationships of trust cannot be mechanized In terms of incentives and real communication does not occur where there is lack of trust and of each other's worth. The NHS needs a spirit of renewal, a re evaluation in truth - and the economic aspects will then also find their due proportion. But this can only be part of a similar movement culturally as individuals speak and act in integrity with truth. Thats what renewal is - not a rebranding with ideas painted on and targets to indicate progress - but the green shoots that grow from those who have readjusted from outmoded or false mentalities and are daring to act from a fresh perspective.
It is a most wonderful thing that when any one of us needs help - help is given.
But we must be vigilant not lose the heart that inspires and underlies this willingness.
