Graded or degraded?

Smoking cannabis WILL affect students' grades, says new report
- particularly if you are studying maths

A curious initial discovery for many who experience the shifted perception afforded by a somewhat forced biological drug effect, is of breaking the spell of a mask by which their perception had been itself confined and conformed to a coercive and fear driven agenda.

But without a true grounding of self honesty and relationship that embody such honesty, the apparent freedom of perception merely becomes conformed to a subtler version of the masked agenda that is essentially an expression OF a fearful self definition.

Targets and "incentives" and blame culture do not make society function harmoniously - but the reverse! Look up!

So in some sense the 'dropping out' from a false motivation for doing anything can be a preparation for finding and living from a true foundation. This, however is a matter of self-honest willingness for life and not the manipulation of consciousness.

Marriages are of an intimacy of being - not of state power

A Simple Solution to the same sex marriage war
from the Daily Bell

- - -

A breath of fresh air. Thanks. I felt prompted to mention civil partnership and some observations about 'marriage'.

In Uk a 'civil partnership' is denied opposite sex couples. (Some obligations and rights accrue from "Living Together as Husband and Wife" even though not married).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_partnership_in_the_United_Kingdom

However, neither the state - nor any other institution in our case - has anything to do with the consecration of our relationship in Life. Nor has mere material mechanism any sight of it excepting to note or quantify behaviours from which to 'reverse engineer' in theories that simply embody their starting point. If we should ritually witness and declare our willingness for love within a group or community it would be the extension of such a gift within a larger willingness and capacity to share in its blessing. For that which touches the many as one without coercion is reflected in our relationship together but not defined by it or any part of it alone. Ritual sanctification cannot make the untrue, true, but witnessing strengthens by sharing.

A civil partnership operates a legal framework of agreement that provides for the civil rights, duties and protections of a relational entity and leaves the nature of that relationship open. It is not pretending to deal with spirituality nor presuming to sanctify. That aspect retains the freedom of the relationship - within its larger relational context. It doesn't presume to exercise 'moral' power. Nor have power to disqualify or invalidate moral integrity.

Definitions are our primary currency. The 'gold standard' of definitions is tangible and demonstrable - shareable - meaning and value. You know who you are in the act of extending and sharing it in act of thought word and deed.  Adulteration of currency with the mere forms derived from presumed, believed or expected meanings, leads to trading in debt - where something is gotten without extension of shared worth. What is gotten without an extending of appreciation can hardly be recognized or shared as value, and so a 'materialism' of transactional getting substitutes for a living communication, and if this is accepted currency then the form of relationship serves to actively substitute for intimacy of being - and becomes a defence against it!

The wealth of meaning and value that shared life (lived relationship) opens is beyond measure - but can be covered over by a sense of unworthiness and fear of loss, which immediately project onto the other and thus triggers attempts to coerce and control which necessarily deceives by hiding the act of self-hatred or fear in strategic presentations that deny or  try overcome what is made fearful by hiding it.

Marriage can mean many things to many people. But what makes a marriage alive is what that relationship is consecrated to or founded upon, and thus brought to the relationship in free willingness. The forms of marriage by themselves do not constitute a living commitment of sharing life, but they may reflect evolving patterns of personal and social need.

Truth is not a matter of fixing down definitions so as to mutually agree, but of accepting and living what is true for oneself without imposing upon others. The idea of determining truth has been subordinated to the 'divide and rule' that limits to form based set of meanings, which can then be manipulated. But discerning truth is a matter of listening and speaking in truly shared willingness. That is, it is itself a real relationship to which what is untrue is brought to light and resolved at the level of current willingness. The act of withholding or withdrawing from willingness for communication is of an wilful but often unconscious identification within a fear or unworthiness that effectively operates in lieu of choice. There is a timing for the free willingness to accept that cannot be forced. At times the most loving act is to effect a form of separation, but not in denial of the others innate capacity to seek and find the awareness of love in a way they can accept and understand.

In attempting to articulate, I offer a framework of reflection. It is not asserting 'truth' upon anyone but extending willingness to whoever it should resonate and be relevant.

What anything is, may be acknowledged or denied by how we define it in usage - regardless of lip-service.

Poisoning the Wellspring of Life... for illusory private gain

Toxic Weed Killer Glyphosate (Monsanto's Roundup) Found in Breast Milk, Infant Formula

The above article needs no elaboration.
A commenter said:

Monsanto is a plague on planet Earth and its inhabitants.

Cursing may be an understandable reaction, but doesn't challenge the framework within which the problem is set and so it perpetuates or persists in it whilst identifying in righteous reaction.

Use what you know is NOT you to identify what IS you and the emotional force of disgust or anger etc to more forcefully align to who you Are - instead of being lured into identified by what you are not. Repentance in its original sense is an immediate release or dropping of baggage that occurs from waking truth. There is a kind of thinking - a kind of identity - that operates as an enslaving and destructive influence upon our lives - and our ways of interpreting and experiencing our lives.
Truth shows you you are free, but unless we act from it, we undermine our own true wholeness with thinking that seeks power and freedom from and over others, and that is not our true relationship with life - no matter how many acting as if it was for however long.
I only write this as an example of using the negative when it manifests in our experience, to generate a positive outcome. But this means questioning or challenging everything we believe true about ourselves and our world - and THAT is the wake-up that few come to without a crisis of a most fundamental choice.
Re integrating to true being will never arise from within a dis-integrity of being; the false has to be recognized and no longer given allegiance. Hating and fighting feeds attention of a negative charge to what otherwise would NOT be given the power to deny your wholeness of being. One starts wherever and in whatever one finds to be the case and the key is a listening receptivity to true being in a true willingness rather than being identified by fear's reaction.
Monstanto is a cocreated expression of fear, hate and deluded disconnection from the knowing that is our natural and true inheritance. As well as holding the false to witness and account, look to our true appreciation of Life and let it communicate through us - and in shared reflection, to us -instead of seeking to manually usurp and manipulate the Life to our own private agendas.

Just Placebos

Are Antidepressants Just Placebos with Side Effects?
By John Horgan on scientificamerican.com

I looked up the above page as one example of the revealing that the firm marketing Prozac distorted and hid internal results of their own trials that indicate no improvement over a placebo. While there is a case for fraud in this - as well as side effects from additives to the supposed active ingredient - I addressed the scientific relationship with placebo and thus with consciousness itself below. But the picture of a segregative and fearful mentality does offer illumination to the actions of Big Pharma or any other vested and powerful interest that has 'captured' its own regulators or become 'invisible' to the healing response that would undo their legitimacy and withdraw allegiance and support.

- - -

The title gives away an ignorance; "Just placebos".
Science tends to 'just diminish' or even deny consciousness because it is built on a negative or fear-based definition of consciousness by which such 'self' and its experience of 'world' are divided and an almost entirely external 'reality' thus believed to happen to or even generate an almost entirely private self that then seeks to map out, adapt to, and manage or control it and thus engage in struggle that outpictures an inner conflict kept private and protected by focussing almost exclusively 'out there' or anywhere but within consciousness - even though all of our experience occurs within and as a consciousness event and is interpreted or rendered meaningful by the the definitions assigned it.
The negatively defined 'self' operates over and against
others and its world and its true nature. And does so as an incredible complex defence system. While you accept its thoughts or belief as your own.
Inspiration comes into an otherwise closed or limited focus because the conditions allow it. Conditional love is the mask of definition by which one permits communication and relationship to occur. It is always presence, but the mind maps out its fragmented personae as a strategy of coping with the intolerable.
Wanting something 'out there' to make it better is a kind of magic - but not to be derided if it works for the duration of its helpfulness.
Coming to an inner willingness to let life in - that is to stop blocking healing by complex levels of conscious and unconscious diversion and displacement - might pass through any kind of outer journey, but when the obstruction fades or diminishes, the synchronicity meets the willingness.
"Just placebo" is so powerful as to be invisible. Rationalists tend to deride beliefs, but are ignorant of the metaphysical assumptions within their self definition. And so they are often 'believers in Science' rather than applying the discipline of Science to all that it pertains - within and without.
The belief in "The One True Reality" persists in Science that thinks it threw of religious shackles. Depression can be many many different things at different times for different people. But within itself is a seed of being a natural part of a larger process of unfolding - that our definitions of self do not generally accept, understand or make culture of holding through.
But one has to work with people's belief systems rather than coercively impose definition upon them from "society" - for that is emotional and psychological violence regardless the 'god' that 'justifies the self-righteous'.
Exploring through experience is part of what Humanity is and does. The false is often if not always engaged with as a potential precursor to a waking to the true - and acting our as who you know you know yourself to be - and believe as an expression of the extension of value rather than a search for identity in the world. Loving and I use that to indicate genuine relationship - identifies us perfectly. The attempt to possess it, control it or milk it like the moneylenders or other gangster racketeers - offers a false identification that promises much, but delivers mere passing illusion and robs us of joy and life. However, I don't ask anyone to believe that. Just be honest with yourself rather than blank cheque allegiance to the thinking that frames everything falsely.
Honesty = I do not know, but paradoxically the yielding to that simple truth, shifts us to a receptivity of a knowing that is always current - and whilst it can in a sense be translated into verbal mental concept as insight or practical action of a helpful nature, it cannot be patented and stored and used as a weapon. Only a 'stolen' illegitimate copy can be paraded as a finely dressed Emperor.
The helpfulness of anything within a genuine desire for fulfilment is no one else's business. But if it becomes a hindrance it is to be thanked and released - or else what is currently helpful cannot come in.
The self we trade in and make currency of, is as much a con as the debt-based money system. It gives up wholeness of relationship and communication for a central controller. You wont find it in the body - not even the brain. There is no such controller - but there is a harmony of unified purpose and there is the virtual layer of the mind that can operate conflicting purpose - because mind is not coercive by nature - only in conceptual construct. The exploration of an apparently material 'Reality' can only flip to reveal Mind - but the mind identified and invested in its model and revenue stream works to obfuscate and delay the obvious as if it were its failure or death, rather than its re-purposing to alignment of integrated being. And so it exports failure and death because these are the values by which it believes itself prevailing victorious.
Everything is what we make of it - but what we are already making of it frames our options and conditions a sense of unnecessary or illegitimate limitation.

Gravity

Why were prehistoric animals so huge?

It was late, I was new browsing and came upon this science promo article.
I started writing about gravity...


- - -

Gravity taxes land animals. It made a huge difference to me as I grew from a child to adult hood.  Perhaps gravity was significantly less when gigantic creatures lived.
Perhaps time and space are also not as fixed and rigid as we have come to believe.
Perhaps "millions of years" operate as a distancing symbol from the Creative - from That agency or power of expression that creates the past within the Instant of always as part of an unfolding of experience within infinity.
Why is gravity so incredibly weak in relation to all other known forces - and yet the strongest within our experience of human embodiment.
Perhaps science will grow beyond a gravity based model of that renders the Living Universe into dead terms?
Consciousness is infinitely beyond the range of the physical and isn't subject to gravity unless it takes itself seriously and crystalizes in-form-ation by focussing within contraction and density as a protective gesture around the idea of non-existence, self-doubt, threat and otherness. That is to create virtual minds or nodes of focusing experience within itself - each with its virtual world experience.
Why not! would answer many questions of actuality. Obviously, Life does because it can - and in some sense desires. The focus of attention indicates value given, and that value is desire embodied. If a pattern of focus establishes itself, and identification arises within it - not that there is ANYTHING separate from the Consciousness act that IS such experience.
Separateness from Life is a human exploration in concept, fleshed out in experience. But such separation - if possible or conceivable - would be non-existence or indeed death. Whether non-existence exists or has any being is a meaningless oxymoron. But as an idea taken seriously, it presents a polarity within Life by which an oppositional force can seem to operate. The electric Universe is a communication and interplay of polarities within ... the Only Existence that knows itself infinitely reflected in all that is. You the reader know your existence reflected in experience. Are you in fact alone? Or is that a temporary condition arising from the filtering and limiting of Infinite Communication by means of a personality construct - not merely individually - but as a Planetary Consciousness within a Galactic Consciousness?
The game of blind man's bluff can pin the donkey's tail wherever it will - but when the blindfold is removed, there is cause for laughter.
"Why" questions are usually statements or assertions disguised as questions.
Why are we here?, presumes 'we' and much of what is meant by 'here'.
Why are you focusing on what you are noticing yourself focusing upon right now? Is the answer really in terms of the past? Or is it the current choice knowingly or unknowingly running as to what you give value to and therefore notice. I say what you give value to - but one's self definition generally cascades a set of values that then pertain to the themes that both express and embody that particular template idea.
Why is my somewhat off topic post so HUGE? Well, I am enjoying myself - or rather an unfolding joy of idea has embodied as this writing through reflecting on "Millions of years", gravity and embodiment or manifestation itself. It simply ran its course and asks nothing of anyone nor seeks persuasion or to elicit agreement.
Thinking outside the box is unboxed thinking of a willingness to recognize resonance and relevance to what is true of me, To reopen channels of inspirational communication that no longer require jamming so as to operate in the dark in apparent independence and self-seriousness. Humans are not a blight on the planet; human thinking is an error from which the rogue growth operates at the expense of its host instead of aligning as integrally part of it.
Perhaps another Civilisation in a probable future - or indeed looking on - might ask, "why were humans so hugely self-limiting?" and the answer is because we mistook it for life, for self, for freedom and power and worshipped the 'rationality' by which we justified our denial of true nature for a sense of control amidst threat that is generated by asserting a sense of control and meeting our own reflection.
One can only expand a model so far before the foundations have to be revised. Clinging to an obsolete idea is to miss the mark for all around is changed and we still think we know what is going on in terms of a past that is not here.
New Idea is more than a remake of an old movie with better cgi. It is the fruit of a true relationship lived. What you give out is what you get back.

Is the sky falling?

Is the Sky Falling?

This op-ed news article prompted this commentary:

The device of deceit by which consciousness 'fragments itself' is of many shifting levels masked by personae.

At the level of the personae an unfolding drama of the grasp for power, by a fear of powerlessness, is thus compelled to coerce in order to persist or 'survive' by getting or taking from others and from Life, that which it believes itself deprived of or specially deserving.

This 'worldly power' operates in cycles that essentially consolidate power, but at the expense of integrity and therefore functionality. Over-controlling life renders it uncontrollable, for suppressed symptoms merely arise everywhere and escalate the believed need for such control at the expense of communication.

Control mentality operates in isolation of separate self interest and while pursuing a sense of special self-interest, can only manipulate via 'incentive' that are negatively predicated - either directly as in fear of consequence or indirectly in seducing dependence within artificially induced scarcity.

I write about nothing BUT consciousness responsibility - for I see this as our next step - our awakening to the acts of definition within consciousness whereby we accept and trade a false sense of self and life and purpose.

I am not suggesting changing consciousness IN ORDER to change the world, but aligning consciousness truly in order to be the change we wanted the world to deliver.

Communicating the perspective of consciousness is difficult when the existing paradigm collectively has the map upside down. One literally has to freely yield one's thinking to connect with Wholeness... with and as Consciousness.

Thinking 'says' this wont make any difference.

Thinking says all kinds of things - but until the predication upon guilt and fear is significantly undone, thinking operates a scam - of sorts - for the attempt to hide FROM fear and to hide IN fear GIVES POWER AWAY.

BUT - what is true of you is not lost and doesn't need to be reclaimed or 'taken back' so much as RECOGNIZED.

Everything is a matter of perspective, and Consciousness ITSELF is the capacity to shift perspective and behold everything within a fresh 'take' rather than a 'mis' take.

However the engagement or preoccupation with trying to change the world first in order to then 'arrive' is a block to shifting perspective and simply locks one into a pattern of limitation and conflict from which there is no escape WITHOUT shifting perspective to where escape is no longer a meaningful necessity.

One doesn't 'escape' oneself - or any facet of oneself - but one does choose where to bring one's focus of attention within All That Is.

Focussing on the negative as if to get a positive result is a mistaken and futile self-deception - even if a few billion reinforce each other in the attempt.

Re-integrative consciousness is not trying to fix Humpty Dumpty under the King's orders but embracing the healing of one's own consciousness so as to in effect withdraw support for the 'botnet of fear' and align in true - joyous - purpose. Then one may speak true to the mind that is identified within un-owned fear. But otherwise the blind lead the blind - and of course all with conflicting agendas attempting to manipulate outcome.

Coercion is NOT the way of communication, honouring relationship or integrity and so truth is its first casualty. But that doesn't mean truth isn't true, it simply means it is temporarily denied witness.

Scientific prostitution to corporate coercion

Real Tragedy of 'Science': Public Faith Declines as Fakery Grows

A Daily Bell article on false peer reviews uncovered in scientific prostitution to corporate coercion.


- - -

A Consciousness Perspective:

Identity theft is nothing new. Truth is not 'out there'. Insofar as anything true is 'out there' it is recognized through one's own truth.

As Consciousness is accepted as our Ground Reality there will be no need to manufacture or employ 'truths' as weapons of leverage and control because truth will be self-evident and beyond question or conflict.

In the mean 'minded' while, any form of anything is meaningless (or means anything and nothing) because the meanings given to things reflect a false or conflicting identification as the 'doer' or 'controller' of consciousness. This is self-illusion or vanity of ignorance and arrogance. Nothing worthy or sane can come of it save the recognition and release of what we are NOT.

Science predicated upon materialism already asserts metaphysical notions that filter and distort receptivity to truth. Of course many notions operate true within their specific range of focus and provide frameworks of intervention into existing patterns of relationship. When enough people agree, their mutually reinforcing definitions operate as currency regardless whether they share true value or pass off toxic debt in place of true worth.

"I" me and "self' are shorthand symbols for facets of the operation of will, but when will is usurped by conditioned belief, it operates the illusion of freedom under the tyranny of fear. What is given power to, becomes power over the giver, because it is asserted and believed true.

Hiding a lie or hiding in a lie may be 'justified' by the narrative of the liar - such as not publicizing information that reflects badly on one's institution and thus give ammunition to the perceived 'heretics' who must at all cost be prevented from gaining influence. But that has nothing to do with science as a discipline of uncovering the (already) true. It is simply the idea of war upon the hated self.

The egocentricity of the segregative or separating self is implicit in the use of the term self, in most usage. But corruption operates upon something true or it would have no meaning as corruption. Corruption begins with taking self-image over true relation and protecting it at cost of truth. It operates a mask or deceit by which NOT to know what in fact one knows. It splits the mind. It plays apart as if oppositional and separate, and seeks the validation that only real relationship offers by joining in forms that mimic aspects of unity without actually joining or relating with anything beyond its own strategy.

Recognizing 'out-of-true' is the opportunity to true up. NOW. Blame operates to divert from truing up, punishment to forbid it - save through long diversionary 'processes of change' that effectively kick real change into long grass while engaging hypocrisy (acting). Tyranny is first within the mind of refusal to embrace and embody change (life). Freedom is an inside job - an 'in-place' shift of perception and perspective that uncovers an already freedom which had been 'given away' to a dream of power and self-specialness. But freedom cannot truly 'leave you' at the level of your true nature - though one can actively deny it in assertion of imagined right to override true nature. We are free to war within ourself if we want, while it gives us something we believe we need or want enough to pay the price.

The baby in the bathwater is the uncorrupted service of science to true uncovering of Who we are and what Life Is. Because one begins from a false foundation there is a necessary revisionary shifting as a greater perspective illuminates the error of one's starting place. However, the inspirational movement to follow one's joy of discovery and gifting of talent in service of life is itself pure - even if imperfectly appreciated within the framework of egocentric identity and drives.

Warring over truth: conflicting realities are out of true

http://iai.tv/
Offers a portal for Idea as creative art in life rather than ideology of investments and private agenda.
However, it is a video channel without transcript and so it takes a linear process in physical time to watch the conversations take place. Perhaps this enourages participation beyond skimming for those who give their time, but I would see a transcript as a much more available medium of communication to complement the videos.

Beyond Truth and Falsehood: What is real?

- - -

Definition is fundamental to ALL that follows from it.

That which defines all things as relating within Itself is First - and cannot be Itself defined.

But all that relates within and as the extension of Source is of the same kind, and thus creates or extends idea within itself likewise.

The temporary expedient of defining Truth or Reality in image of symbol and idea generates a perspective of self differentiation from Totality and yet shares that perspective within totality. There is no separation.

But the experience of self differentiation may be explored or focused within such as to experience separateness within Mind whose nature and function IS Communication.

The segregative self-sense generates and depends upon an almost exclusively physical framed 'reality'. For there is no other way to maintain such a 'self' but through the denial OF Consciousness in the assertion of conditionalities that effectively generate transactional 'reality' in place of the Gift of spontaneity of a synchronous and unified expression of life.

To the segregative self, reality is war in which all things essentially conflict - and yet within which is a temporary assertion of survival attempt to make tolerable and wherever possible, to extend any capacity to prevail over or exploit the externalised world - for this is the coercive movement by which the creative is confused within the created - as a result of taking image or definition OF Self - AS Self.
When the coercive movement is recognized false, one yield to Source and are restored to true perspective.
However what is true OF you is not within definition so much as a clarifying and transcendence OF self-definition.
And so it is true that war 'survives' or persists as the sacrifice or covering over of truth. But whatever is acted out does not and cannot change the truth of you - because the truth or existence of you - (the very awareness of existence that is you, regardless what definitions are accepted and engaged in) - is Eternally changeless though experienced in infinitely rich perspectives that embrace and transcend linear time or locational properties of space.
What you choose - knowingly or unknowingly - to accept as true for you - must 'create' your conception, perception, and behavioral response that you  have and share as your experience of Life.
But the level of such definition is largely 'hidden' in unconsciousness, and guarded by psychological defence AGAINST exposure, by the personality construct that you take to be yourself.
It IS a working focus within a physically experienced reality, but it is the vehicle or channel of You that has - in a sense - lost the signal - and seems to have got lost in a will of its own that is effectively acting against its own good and burdens itself with attempt to manage or control reality.
The idea of controlling reality is the idea of forgetting its nature. There is nothing 'outside' whereby to leverage excepting in agreement to play the game of being 'outsiders' who know not what they do - and who therefore make their OWN definitions and fight over them as if the truth is at stake.
True relationship is easy because is requires nothing of us - being already the case. Yet is impossible while we define it lacking and attempt to change its condition from a belief in unworthiness of relationship.
Blessed is the one who releases their self-certainty of experience in willingness to let truth be uncovered by which everyone and everything involved is recognized within a greater perspective.
There is no escaping the Embrace of our true Existence - but there is a wish to distract attention within a focus of self-specialness fueled by fear of love that does not know love's gift of unique creational participance as true living - and perceives only threat to its investment of identification in manual and magical control over life.
All realities are valid experience but all realities of experience are not relevant or resonant to the theme and signature vibrational reality OF you.
Getting in direct communication with your core being may be via the experience of recognition of what and who you are NOT. Therefore unreality or untruth serves purpose - albeit unknowing.
All things in the 'world' correlate or resonate or symbolically communicate aspects, facets and qualities of consciousness within, or prior to their embodiment. The light of the projector is prior to the film or the image on the screen. Light is shining. Mind is projecting What you give out is what you get back. But first recognize and own what is already being believed and reacted from, for one cannot change what one has not yet owned.
Thankyou for your attention.

EU "Don’t use Facebook if you want to keep the NSA away from your data"

EU: Don’t use Facebook if you want to keep the NSA away from your data

The issues of communication, privacy, integrity and trust are coming up in BOLD as an increasing dysfunctionality from which we can learn. I read this article and many of the comments at Ars Technica - and posted the following:


The focusing upon and operating within, a coercive mind-set, runs as a segregative reality experience in which communication is filtered and distorted so as to mask weapon or phishing intent of coercive private agenda and corresponding development of defences in the evolution of the founding idea.

But beneath all appearances communication is still true or actually there to be uncovered and discerned.

Listening receptivity of an uncoercive mindset - a mind you neither create nor interfere with, via the mental overlay of personality conditioned reactions, is a SHIFT of focus, at a foundational level.

Focusing upon and within the flow of true communication has no need to pry or snoop in order to know what one needs to know when one needs to know it, Indeed to be coercive upon the flow of communication that IS Life, is to limit oneself to a fearful victim mentality as a reflection of one's own desire given acceptance and belief.

There is a way to listen and act within the flow of relationship as fluidly 'defined' by joy.
The belief in sacrificing joy's true knowing for the 'power' of fear is a false 'god' by which we become at war with ourself - or rather, identified reactively within our own conflicted self-definition.

This seemingly chaotic outcome, activates and seems to demand and compel the command and control mentality to subvert and usurp all natural functions - for it is war upon Life in the name of a separateness of segregated or separated 'life' called "me and mine" - in an exclusive and other-denying sense.
Living in such survival mode psychologically has become a second nature of a conditioned protection racket. This is becoming increasing obvious in our world-experience.

Fear defines 'relationships' as a means to an end because fear cannot SEE that which it interferes with.
Embracing one's relationship with everything and everyone as the living CONTEXT in which our true self is restored to our awareness, inherently de-conditions the mind of pretending it can ACTUALLY exist apart from or outside relationship itself. Such self-illusion cannot 'survive' because it never lived - but one can WISH it true and give it the Life you truly are.

If you followed the gist of this you may sense that our first and only true freedom is of what we accept true of ourself - for everything else follows on from that as a matter of course.
The WORD we each give and receive is the fundamental definition of worth and value in this and any moment. The game of conflict draws the crowd to the arena and the attention feeds the combatants. It is all a matter of choice - but at a level we have trained ourselves collectively to disregard and deny in order to ENJOY the game. When a game loses or is recognized to be joyless - or meaningless - or insane - then the call is to waken to choose differently - in line with you you know yourself to be - now that you have had such a clear experience of who you are not.

Where we are coming from - in any moment - in any movement - IS our responsibility to check in and verify - or else we give our power away to be harnessed in bot-nets of rogue agendas that lose any pretence of connection with anything worthy, sound or sane.

Integrity and trust ARE communication, accept nothing else at face value. The hunger for power speaks of a deeper powerlessness trying to act itself out in the world. The problem is not firstly IN the world and so it will never be healed or answered there. The problem is a faulty self-definition. A failure or breakdown of communication that calls for realignment within integrity - reintegration.

Privacy is a gift of love. Not a right of fear. Communication is what war is designed to disrupt, limit and control. There are many ways of saying 'No' that are honest, direct and open to genuine communication from another. Force is not inherently coercive. A true defence embodies true values. Believing our own spin turns everything to lies - in which anything is what you say it is even if you don't believe it so.

Be true to yourself, all the rest must follow on - but be aware that ID phishing goes right back the the Apple!

Free to challenge a lack of freedon

A Lack of Freedom Is Destroying the Middle Class, Not Chinese Competition - See more at the Daily Bell


My comment on the use of laws as a weapon against our true nature:


When 'laws' operate against rather than in support of freedom, one must in some sense 'violate' the boundary and limit of the presumed or believed law in the fact of being who one freely and truly is. Or one denies and limits and thus 'violates' the innate law of one's nature in order to fit or join in with an idea that may be collectively reinforced.
'Thinking outside of the box' is now a cliche, having been used as a mask for the same old thinking in a new set of clothes. But a perspective from beyond or outside the definitions by which one identifies and lives by, is only found by those who can connect to their true nature - which IS inspirational imagination of curiosity and discovery.
This capacity or willingness, must yield the personal sense for as Einstein correctly stated; "No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it." Indeed, one yields into a level in which the problem doesn't exist, or is redefined more clearly, more sanely, thus revealing obvious response thereof.
Love of truth is foundational to such willingness - regardless the alloy of the personality structure. But 'New Wine' can and often is, framed in old Paradigm of a self-seeking agenda rooted in hidden and un-owned fear, and this means that insight is harnessed to the attempt to manipulate and control rather than to the reintegration of a dis-integrity that arises FROM such idea believed and applied.
The personality structure in consciousness and in the patterning of the brain is not inherently fixed. Indeed it changes all the time - even moment by moment. That aspect of our being is fluid, flexible and transformable. However, while we are invested in it as an exclusive sense of self, it is defended against healing change and becomes the attempt to coerce life - as if such power is ours, or is in any way necessary or meaningful.
But the idea of being a separated isolated individual against life and others - who sees others in terms only of what can be GOT from them, is not a law - but passes as such by allegiance and tacit mutual reinforcement. Then one only thinks in terms of the self such idea provides and that can only be healed by bringing the underlying self-defined limitation and division to the light of an honest awareness.

It is possible to immediately accept truths that leave behind all that one had believed to be one's life - but it is rare, and most of us create or demand processes of transition. Indeed one can get lost in transition - that is one can become identified within the idea of process in place of aligning process to a direct objective or desire.

Education or a 'leading out' of a capacity to live and be oneself within relationship, is called for - primarily by example. Regardless that it breaks the unwritten law of truly thinking and knowing for oneself and bringing that to one's relations - rather than seeking and finding the thinking that effectively masks a true presence in allegiance to a god of fear.

Where we are coming from is more important than the form of what we are doing - because the latter without the former is so often a kind of phishing attack by which a stolen identity operates illegitimately.

The above editorial brought out the probability of disaffection and withdrawal of allegiance relative to top-down impositions of globalism, and prompted this comment from me:


Private agenda coercively and deceitfully asserted and enforced, redefines and redirects the energy and purpose of life to an evaporation via the illusions of power within powerlessness.
But there has to be SOMETHING IN such agenda to give it even partial allegiance, or it is simply revealed as a meaninglessness unworthy of a second thought - of giving serious attention to.
Un-owned fear drives private agenda - for one does not WANT to face and feel and know such "powerlessness" or "meaninglessness" of self, and the mind is utilised to script a narrative in which some self-specialness is retained, via victory or victim-hood.
While it WANTS such "unconsciousness" of evaded responsibility, it is not only a sucker for a scam, it drives the market.

The idea of a global imposition of control is the "ego" writ large, driven by corporate amplifications of gross materialism wrapped around the possessive obsession and a fear of defeat and loss of self - which on one level is like a grand chess game determined to be the 'real game' beneath all the illusions of self-vanity - as if  power over life exacts some kind of temporary revenge in the denial of un-owned limitations upon one's will.

The template of consciousness that has become dominant currency over the last few thousand years is itself changing, but not as a result of coercive manipulation - but as an expression of a shifting within consciousness to a different foundation than coercive manipulation.

To overplay one's hand is to expose one's lack of substance and lose credibility. But if a false foundation lacks substance then there is no way of maintaining the illusion of legitimate currency apart from seeking to delay the inevitable in the guise of false growth and protection against self-inflicted division.

Working to avoid the inevitable, or waiting for someone else's bubble to burst - is a delay tactic. It is our own consciousness that is unrecognized in its participation in false self definitions, from which true fulfilment can never fruit.

Global communication and relationship, is part of the emerging technology that represents or reflects the transcendence of limits of space and time. But communication and relationship have been largely subverted to the mentality of war, and winning, in a kind of psychological defence mechanism acted out collectively. Defences against communication and relationship are a war on Self or on Life Itself. Only in darkness can they seem to have any meaning whatsoever.

The drive to achieve or maintain control in the illusion of power generates experience of darkness by which to recognize what one is NOT.
This recognition opens a fresh foundation - even if it seems to be in the context of breakdown or chaos.

True currency extends and embodies and reflects value truly shared, communicated and known AS relationship. Fig-leaves take all their apparent value from a mistaken fear of 'nakedness'.  The mask is implicitly a cover-up and a complicity of denial. There is, however, more to life than prevailing as a masked agenda, over dis-integrity of word, thought, deed and behaviour. A life that knows and grows its abundance rather than multiplying a sense of lack by seeking to get it from others.

My comment:


"private or political hands"
I have no reason to see any but cosmetic division between these when a financially directed corporate agenda runs or at least holds such influence over the political process.
An more deeply honest -  appreciation of consciousness itself, is called for when sickness of inflammatory conflict, dysfunctionality and breakdown of shared purpose and trust renders life intolerable.
The mentality of coercing and controlling life - including one's own consciousness of it - seeks to persist in out-of-true dissonance whilst masking or redistributing the consequence of guilt, fear, self-invalidation and pain.
Ingenuity contrives ever more complex instruments of obfuscation - such that the half-wit leads the blind. Health is not physically defined, any more than life, Restored wholeness of being - on all levels of what it is to be and not just those given focus by fearful drive to escape fear - is what 'works', and any attempt to replace a real relationship with a 'getting mechanism' - no matter how well intentioned or altruistic - can extend or promote health, radiant wealth, happiness and synchronicity of positive outcomes.
Even to engage in vocabulary of verbal mental linear concept, tends to be interpreted only through the distortion filter of whatever version of reality is accorded 'truth' in the reader's thoughts system.
Such disconnected and destructive paternalism as is operating coercion via the mask of caring, cannot operate without the demand for unconsciousness of self-AND shared responsibility. Waking up to responsibility IS exercising freedom. Running of defaults of ideas that are NOT true of you is to give the power of your freedom away to idols or false gods as if they will save you from unowned and unrecognized fear.
Fear denied becomes a dark manipulating deceit. Fear brought to light becomes the process of shitting off or releasing what does not belong. When one is heavily identified in a fearful self definition it will seem that fear protects by maintaining a segregated sense of personal control over and against the feared and so the process of healing itself is interpreted as threat and enemy.

Ultimately one is either cooperating with a Life aligning process of reintegrating consciousness or asserting an ever more dense and TAXING defence upon the relational communication that is life manifest.
Rationality tends to support or justify and out-of-true act of thought,word or deed. But true Reason is sanity itself - of a wholeness of being - rather than asserting exclusive definitions upon reality.
Seeking a true foundation must arise from recognizing one's own as false. While we want to maintain the false we will busy ourselves with seeing false foundational thought in others and obtaining a reinforcement for our own lack of true foundation by being 'against' what is wrong with the world, others or indeed our self.

Ultimately, eventually, inevitable, it all comes home to roost. BUT the owning of one's own choice is the freedom to choose anew - whereas the projection of one's own subjection of victim status, in lack and loss of grievance, ensures that the choice is hidden and therefore unchangeable. This is the belief in and worship of sin - for the investment in grievance of wound and damage, gives a kind of power over life that those seeking power refuse to yield by restoring their mind to a wholly present Presence.
The power of illusion may be used for creative endeavour, but the illusion of power can only use up or deplete the true resource or foundation upon which it depends for all that it seems to be - even though its relationship with source and wholeness is an ignorant arrogance of a corrupting self-deceit.

There are many modalities to restoring health. But when the intent is to protect and nurture the sickness so as to persist against one's true desire, then none of them will do more than delay the inevitable. Truth is inevitable, because it simply Is - where illusions must be maintained by force and guile, which can only exhaust one's capacity of allegiance. Which is a good thing - though it is not pleasant to arrive at.
