Individuals, Not Governments, Drive Scientific Progress
By Daily Bell Staff
My comment into this theme:
As framed in human experience, we seem to be explorers and discoverers - struggling against not only adversities of the 'human condition' but the ignorances and arrogances of human conditioning.
The covering over or 'forgetting' of Knowing - operates another 'identity' than that which is innate to our Individuality of Life Expression - and undercurrent to its masked persona or role in presentation is a running away or avoidance of the core separation trauma or conditioning that has imprinted and set up the patterns of relationship that are all forms of power struggle within a pervasive threat that allure as the desire to take the power position that is absented by the loss of Knowing - which is full feeling presence and not a 'divide and rule' fragmented assertion or imposition against free-willing.
Individual free willing has been subverted by the redefining of will as power -over rather than as alignment-within the power of love - recognized and recognisable as a wholeness and balanced quality of spirit, feeling, mind and body.
Everything has thus been subverted and redefined from its original native language of recognition to 'currencies' of dissociation that operate a primary role in maintaining the block on such true communication so that power-struggle can persist as the only 'power on Earth' and the determining guide and protector to our life on Earth.
The process of Re-wakening or Re-membering from and as a deeper recognition of Felt Being rather than 'assertion of an emotion-backed thinking' and struggling among its reflections, is of releasing a particular form of fear-based control that blinds - or operates as the darkness or lack of Knowing - as attempt to fill a LACK of presence with an imposed narrative identity.
Conflict that feeds upon itself becomes paralysis - masking as 'order' of limitation in which 'control' seems to hold perceived or believed 'chaos' at bay. Balance of inner communication is a required foundation for re-opening an expanded participation of energetic relationship beyond the 'gravitic' model that 'separates' the 'Living Universe' by reducing a communication of Totality to a teeny force acting at a distance between remote bodies.
Yet no instant or experience of anything or anyone but is of the Whole - regardless the frameworks of meaning that can be applied as filters and distortions to meet the demand of the 'mind' currently accepted and projected as your own.
Living Communication is of an energetic nature that will never altogether fit or conform to any model or definition - BUT our models and definitions can be aligned with our true willing so as to be guided and supported in that energetic - and embody it.
Without more alignment - opening the 'Doors of Perception' is opening a destructive reversal to the possibility of a truly embodied Humanity - of which only tiny glimpses have thus far leaked into 'Plato's Cave'. For no 'man-minded substitute for Knowing can abide in the presence of the Source of all Thought, Feeling and Form. False currency is revealed.
Yet the veils ARE lifting or disintegrating - regardless the concerted focussing in collective 'identity' and so as see it, we are obliged - as in a crash-course of necessity - to find and live such alignment. Not because an unloving edict demands it - but because the persistence of an unloving edit costs so much in terms of the pain of life denied. And the true desire uncovered is for life in Life's terms and not on what I previously identified and defended as 'me'.
The underlying pattern of consciousness is itself the censoring, limiting and controlling power - that has all the power we give it by operating blindly as its embodiment - in all its various roles. One key role of which is of hatred and opposition - for this is where we get a sense of 'power' from in place of being perfectly identified in a true relational willingness - which is not given or accepted by rote or as programmed - but is a truly felt and acted event. It is reclaiming your life back from alignment with a false sense of power.
Growing the communications of a true resonance in Life is different than feeding off the seemingly self-righteous forms of power that persist in ancient patterns of role-play. It is not waiting for Life to come and validate its new world order - in fact it is not identifying primarily in the forms of its expression at all - but as the underlying communication of Idea that is Alive - and re-Minding us by operating through us and reflecting to us - each within the Whole and therefore within each other.
The scientific expansion of perspective that HAS been revealed has not yet been accepted in its Consciousness implications and obligations - because the core imprinting of limitation via division and control is not itself recognized - in act. This is an individual responsibility that no amount of 'teaching theory' or associating in 'identity' woven of such theory can substitute for. Yet the mind in 'rehearsal' does substitute for Life - as if to bring safety while seeming to work towards resolving or regaining lost power.
False currency is a key phrase I use here on Daily Bell - for in an extroverted form - you are aware of the device by which to own the system by which all else has been brought to depend on. Expansion of Consciousness is the recognition within Mind of perspectives that were already present but effectively hidden or denied by one's current sense of self-definition.
All definitions bring consequences or fruits of identity-experience. But only those that align with who you truly know and feel yourself to be - are belonging in you. If you persist in attempting to become who you are not - you will succeed in forgetting who you are. This is a moment by moment responsibility. You cannot 'go to mind' and get a formula for how to live your life. You are an individual at root regardless the fragmentations that are reflecting as experience - but this is a fruit to be savoured and appropriately shared, not a mind-identity to sacrifice true presence of Life to - so as to 'replace it'.
My comment here responds to the energetic that the article communicates within me - not merely the forms. In an 'Electric Universe', Everything is Communication - bar none. But the act of definition operates some quality of differentiation and limitation within the Idea of focusing in true desire.
To be the 'puzzle piece' that I truly am is to meet the alignments of Life regardless that others have their own freely unfolding experience. This is my individuality - for no role is invalidated - just because it is not my current choice. We do not gain power by invalidating the power of others - we lose it. But power here means something different to what it is currently colluded in meaning.
Redeeming meaning from false or falsely framed meanings is a true accounting. It is only by a false accounting that pain and destruction can be outsourced to 'others' while playing out an elitist or exclusive and Life-rejecting 'individualism'.
The idea of a 'need to know' uncovering its desire fulfilled is also the need or desire to be who you are - regardless of any obstructions, persecutions or limitations encountered. Indeed these are part of the unfolding and not really as the sense of lack defines them, but this has to be realised to be true. It cant just be asserted true as if to gain a superior commentary position within the identity in lack.
We (each) - and on that basis - together have to find ways to use apparent obstruction or adversity so as to restore and reintegrate to living purpose rather than fragment into polarized reactivity. Unless that is in fact the purpose that is accepted as your living will.
We are conditioned to seek greater force of leverage - but I invite a greater perspective upon our active definitions. Imagination is freedom - and in freedom to imagine other perspectives is an arbitrary set of mind replaced without war - although the symptoms of an old pattern may persist while the core of new insight grows within.
Emotionality is not free feeling - and in a sense is the fear of intimacy or full feeling. The 'resistance' to looking within is generally held in place by emotionally backed conditioning. But to exclusively 'look out' - without true insight is a state of dissociation and denial - regardless how 'normal' its consensual camouflage.
dsaulw made this comment to the main article:
Not only will government-sponsored science not produce anything innovative to speak of, it will do its best to destroy anyone who is trying to advance science that runs counter to the party line. Just think about what it has done to global warming dissidents, and to those who have come up with treatments for cancer outside of the sanctioned box.
My response to dsaulw:
I feel you would be better saying 'corporate-governance'. The corporate sector long ago 'captured' and subverted most of any power in government from behind the scenes. So called 'trade deals' like TPIP are only seeking to 'legalize' this openly.
If there were somehow 'free trade' restored to idea exploration and development then would we all not simply recreate the same hierarchical power struggle because our relation to idea is exploitative rather than truly creative?
As for science - its foundations define its limits and although the model can be tweaked around the edges and minutiae of details filled in - they will all be conformed and interpreted through the core foundational intent - and so the dots are joined up to 'validate' what the core intention is set to - regardless the forms it takes.
'Trojan horse' is an idea of hiding agenda in a seemingly sacred or benign and auspicious or acceptable and respectable form. Once you have 'swallowed the bait' your identity is compromised - or replaced - with something not unlike a cuckoo's egg, where the emergent chick sucks your resources and protections while destroying your true offspring. Not unlike the forms of many cancers
The reversal or undoing of deceit operates from a true foundation rather than becoming baited into conflict. The growing or rising of wholeness and health within the body politic is through the witnessing of its living qualities regardless appearances and assertions to the contrary.
You (anyone) may observe the patterns you ascribe to 'government' in your own mind so readily as to be almost stating the self-evident - that has somehow been rendered invisible by a 'collectivist' hatred of oppositional or rival power that is demonized when inconvenient to the furthering or masking of one's own.
Innovations as such, may have far reaching consequences that may be much harder (or impossible) to put back in their box than release - such as genetic engineering or AI in their ability to replace humanity and the environment with hacked versions carrying agenda that even their proponents may be ignorant of.
The idea of progress is according to What and Who and Why. A lust for power over Life that does not know the root of its own drive to possess it - has a different notion of progress than the desire to embracing Life.
"Ironically, ever since we “scientized” nutrition, the state of our health has declined. Decisions about what to eat and drink have gone from habits of culture and heritage to calculated choices based on shortsighted nutritional theories, with little consideration of how human beings reached modernity in the first place." (~ Pearlmutter: Grain Brain)
'Scientizing' is weaponizing or marketising - in short it is operating a command and control power agenda under the guise of 'serving humanity', 'progress', evolution and of course to make a 'better world' or even a new world order - but for who exactly? The anti-Nature element in science has an arrogant undertone of deep seated rage and distrust - as if "Never Again!" to suffer such hurt or loss as has become collectively associated with what such distrust frames as our 'original' or given nature.
Seeking to make 'sense' of experience arises when we know not what we do - and don't recognize ourselves in Creation - and so mind that operated as if disconnected calls upon itself to justify itself in denial of its own reflection.
The 'meanings' given cancer and used as currency by society are almost all those of the rogue cell or the symptom as the disease to be warred upon, eradicated or managed because it cant be trusted not to flare up and kill you. This is not a biological practicality so much as the original imprinting from which we have not evolved regardless clothing it in technological sophistry. However - on a biological level:
http://www.westonaprice.org/modern-diseases/cancer-to-the-rescue/
Seneff offers a welcome shift of perspective that does not automatically assign or dump guilt and causality on the body as a 'rogue agent' but recognizes relationship with environmental nutrients and toxicities as the point at which accepted but false 'truths' have undermined a natural discerning OF mind by the confusion of identifying within such thinking.
This thinking is so deeply embedded and emotionally charged so as to make a cancer diagnosis a 'voodoo' that can trigger a deeper guilt and powerlessness of Life that often collapses to accept any directions of 'help' that are generally emphatically asserted as an immediate step without pause to question or challenge any of the information and what it actually means.
The 'sin' - and punishment - is then projected to anyone who 'deprives' or misleads with 'false' hope in place of 'official treatment' that is more often than not more destructive than the disease.

Hijacking scepticism
Hijacking of Scepticism to Subvert Critical Thinking
In response to a comment-article on wakingtimes.
Deceit is the assertion of who you are not – as if it is who you are.
It can use any role or appearance including questioning as if it meant to communicate. Some operate within the mask of respectability and others lack not audacity.
Questioning that operates a hidden agenda of statement – is indeed propaganda. True questioning extends true relationship.
To keep the mind open is to at least be willing to consider the possibility that what one thinks or currently believes, may not be true, so as to listen to or consider new information.
Cynicism and gullibility are two poles of self certainty that operate a racket by which an apparent difference maintains a dynamic of changing relationships or ‘struggle’.
However a truly open mind is undefended to knowing – because it is willing to accept it does not know. Knowing is a wholeness of being in which there is no conflict. It is a unified alignment of who and what you truly are – from which to live – not as an authority over your own consciousness – nor of others or the world. But as an embodiment of wholeness.
The mind of hidden secret agenda first points out and away from itself to OTHERS – so as to be relatively less burdened with the consequence of conflicted mind or fear and guilt. Having projected it AWAY, it is then operating as if it were a private separate power upon Life, operating through its characters and script.
Why do we always presume evil intent is in the minds of those who withhold or hide in deceits? Is it because we believe we know ourselves the same? Do we try to excommunicate or deny that part of ourself in ways that often, generally or always give it power in the dark instead of healing it in light?
The first mistake was not the error of false thinking. false thinking evaporates to have never been. It was the attempt to hide the error from God (Light) in order to persist in it while trying to correct ourselves alone.
What else is this but to say we all choose to ‘play in the dark of a mind that covers over its connectedness with self-justified hate?
Beware the assignment of evil to anything alive – even if others allow themselves to be used by fearful and coercive agenda of hidden personal terror.
“Resist ye not evil” said Jesus – who knows that what you focus upon, give attention to, and share in, is what you feed, multiply and become.
Obviously he was not passive with regard to the confusions or attempts to confuse that he met in (his br)others EXCEPT to choose not to escape from or dally within the projected hate and denial of those who felt threatened by what he reflected in them.
He actively put deceit and deception behind him and when meeting the schemes of fear driven trickery, was able to speak from a true presence of mind instead of being baited into personal reaction.
The crucifixion of true Innocence of being is a pattern in our consciousness that we re-enact by sacrificing our own connected joy-in-being and denying and projecting the fact in assertion of victim-hood or powerlessness and grievance seeking vengeance.
The world CANNOT and WILL not hear this for it depends on this dark secret to seem to persist as coercive and conflicted personae on a dark stage.
But You who are the joy in being CAN hear this and let it shift you to see a world of a different foundation than one electing to persist in denial, guilt and fear – and all the progeny thereof.
To think one can really change without uprooting the false is to secretly serve to propagate another crop of tares.
I referred to Jesus as an example – not as an appeal to ‘higher authority’. It is the discernment of one’s own heart that must test any and everything – including what information or guidances to accept or trust.
Coercive intent is the telltale of a hidden agenda. It operates all sides of every apparent conflict to cover over true relation and communication. It does so as your ‘protector’ while you dally in darkness that cannot abide in light.
Turn to light and true protection by giving ONLY as you would in love receive. That is – by pausing from reaction and checking in at the heart in silence of one’s own assertions – so as not to be taken in by what you have truly recognized as something you do not want and does not belong to you.
True governance is uncovered within an inner integrity of being. Unless we live FROM that, we merely enact the shadow roles for fear to persist in feeling validated and thus persist in denying its own redefinition to serve a wholeness of being.

Conscious Universe - part 1: Fruits of identity
I met an article I could join with called:
And in process of commenting have written the following:
I join with the article's communication. The honest fact is that we don't know - period!
In the sense of what we are, or what we or anything is for - we may think we know and thus animate our beliefs, but the Infinite is in our Face and we do not know more than that an attempt to know has generated reactions - most notably the identification of being something lacking.
This may seem to contradict - but in accepting we don't know, we are not lacking, but neglecting to assert or interfere in a fullness on non lacking unity that knows itself by expression and extension - by our fruits are we known, and not by concept.
The fruits of identity in lack are limitation, loss, fear, vulnerability, conflict, guilt and inadequacy. None of which are truly shared and all of which are facets of isolation or exclusion. Such is felt intolerable in exposure and is covered with what we call our consciousness.
The fruits of identity at rest in unified being are the innate qualities of Life - unadulterated. They will seem to be covered or distorted by a distractive compulsive, interpretive consciousness - while it is actively energised and engaged. But such fruits cannot be obliterated because what you are not, cannot actually change or replace what is currently being all that you are - whether you realise it or whether your attention is temporarily engaged.
Though I have been willing to use verbal mental constructs to sketch here, the key is not one of interpretation of meaning but acceptance of one's direct experience.
The experiential realisation is not added to us - but is revealed to the free relinquishment of the illusion-wish of control and self-specialness. Hence so few are willing unless the cost of the self-illusion becomes intolerable and allegiance to it breaks down.

Richard Dawkins and David Attenborough and the problemof consciousness
That anything at all exists - and that awareness of anything IS - is mind stoppingly awesome. See reality without the lens of concept or definition and you let reality see through you. What is the mechanism that tends to automatically deny, limit or interrupt this directness of be ing? I don't ask for words - I ask you to explore for yourselves and know.
The problem of human consciousness is that it is itself predicated on an impossible and insoluble assertion or presumption.
"I think therefore I am" - is true enough as the intuition of awareness - but totally false if it is taken to mean that you are as your own thought suggests, infers or defines. This deception is far more deep seated and all pervasive than would ever be imagined or believed - yet it comes about through the ignorant or careless use of imagination and belief. This mechanism of identification, differentiation and desire is the underlying program by which the mind seems to split itself into a multiplicity of apparently conflicting and yet unconsciously cooperating entities or survival drives associated with a symbolic substitution of form and imagined meaning for a direct and indivisible 'knowing'.
Everything discovered about the mechanism has a use in the reawakening of awareness to its true source and nature - when it is realised to be reflective of the mind or wish that calls it forth.
To use the mind as mechanism is to experience and see a mechanical 'world'.
Everything about such an investigation is mechanical and complexity of patterning or fitting together is not a true beauty or meaning just because it can be fascinating.
To release the mechanical bias - and let mind rest into and be purely expressive of its true nature is to "Be still and know that I am God". There is no belief or thought involved in what this points to. It is simply letting truth be as it is and guiding or revealing itself - Instead of indulging an imaginative self sense that determines and seeks to manipulate reality to suit its own self image.
In science and in spiritual enquiry - there is a not altogether unconscious self-seeking - that always works against the true desire of the heart because it is founded on a false sense of self. You are living the experience and feedback to the experiment of activity of thought, judgement, and belief - that is as far from the surface of human awareness as is the Earth's core from a game of cricket.
Yet to observe this, and allow realignment and integration with the truth of what you are, must you release your own thoughts of the meaning you have given them. Don't worry, the truth is never at risk - and illusions are not really here and so cannot be attacked by truth. Confusion is not the original or actual nature of mind - so do not use it as if it speaks fro you.

Reith Lectures 2010 - lecture three: What We'll Never Know
As soon as I saw this absurd heading I was aware of the thought: "will we ever REALLY KNOW any thing?".
Within our own defined terms we 'know' things - but a genuine investigation might ask - what is the presumed I that knows? What is IS knowing? WHAT really is being known - in any event or circumstance?
No matter how ingeniously inventive a mind may be - its own reality to itself is built on presumptions that run exactly like a computer program. Unless of course we 'be still and know'. (In which case such programs can be observed along with the desires and beliefs that they are constituted of).
The mind in exercising judgements and definitions attempts to control reality - and increasingly thereby suffers an oppositional reality to which it is helplessly victim.
The mind in the presence and flow of awareness expresses an inherent movement that is the nature of the flow - and is characterized by a communioned trust. You could say this is a 'mystical' knowing - except it is universal and always already the case - a Universal knowing that is utterly beyond all dualistic mentality - yet is utterly native to your being.
Explaining things and calling such explanation 'knowing' is utterly absurd. The absolutely interrelated nature of all things includes the act of consciousness itself. To assert a world outside of mind - and then attempt to 'know' it in order to control it for 'our own good' is to accept without question a starting point of willful self delusion.
However, the investigation into the manifest world WILL yield fruits of an awakening and startling nature - for what we presume to be 'out there' will reveal itself - or be revealed - as a profound and inescapable nature - in which what we thought to be our mind is realized to be an instrument of feedback for a greater Mind - capitalized because the truth of mind we identify with exclusively is but an extension within what can be called Mind - yet cannot itself be known - except by its effects.
And yet the DIRECT expressions of Mind - are of an order and quality whose nature constitutes all that truly Is. Much of what we take to be our mind is a superficial clutter and chatter - not unlike a static signal serving to jam or block the airwaves.
Could there be any proof to what I suggest?
Consider in honesty the following statement:
“I do not know the thing I am, and THEREFORE do not know what
I am doing, where I am, or how to look upon the world and on my?
self.”
Yet in this learning is salvation born. And what you are will
TELL you of Itself.
