Enemy without?

I commented beneath this Daily Bell editorial as much to the comment as to the article for I look at the ideas from which we operate rather than invest and identify on one idea against another.

- - -
Standing our ground is to abide in our integrity of being regardless the circumstance.
Everything else is temporary.
It is right to question political organisation - for that buys into the outsourcing of integrity to ideas and others. Any shared endeavour depends entirely on the conscious integrity of its membership.
However the extension of integrity is the most fundamental act a human being can make and is the basis of 'our'.
The idea of 'enemy' tends to operate a device of division into blind or distorted reaction.
Disintegrity within our own mind is the 'enemy' - and the lack of integrity in others cannot be merely personalised and vilified and damned - and as a result somehow become our own integrity justified.
The enemy of liberty is that which defines freedom exclusively for itself at expense of others as a sort of self-specialness or exceptionalism - or indeed supremacy.
However one is free to limit or withhold oneself until one uses that freedom to choose differently - and experience of limitation, conflict and isolation all weigh towards re-evaluating one's choices. But not while the cause of one's woe is pointed exclusively at others.
The looking to also be aware of the mote in our own eye is not about self-guilt or self-invalidation but of true foundation.
The loss of awareness of true foundation is the dis-integrity or disintegration from which all else automatically unfolds in like kind.
Individual has come to stand for self-asserted independence. Now Corporates shout their 'freedom' all over the Planet.
Individuality, like true sovereignty of will, is an expression or extension of a Source; an indivisibility of being. This cannot be found with a battlefield one refuses to transcend. A battle in which one is defined against 'others', rather than being identified within an integral brotherhood - no matter how insanely any of us are identifying at any given moment.
To see the lie as sin to be damned and stamped out is to become the hater through which the lie has just propagated itself.
But seeing the lie as an error to be corrected at the level of its choice and not its appearance of bait or persuasion is the releasing of the lie and of allegiance to the lie - which is much more pervasive than its symptoms would suggest. Hence the attempt to war on symptoms merely persists what it purports to manage or control.
Giving 'enemy' to others is a choice. We all get to experience to consequence of choice and thus refine it to serve the ideas we hold most dear. I would open those ideas by which everyone then acts forth as they do, to awareness. Hatred disallows such freedom.
Though of course I understand it arises within the dissonance of disintegrity because it is intolerable and the desire is for the pain to go away. I find this to be either where one yields the mind to align more truly, or invoke and fortify the mind to deny and split off from and project the hatred away. But if one notices oneself in act, one can no longer believe it true. And this awareness has now come into had before operated a closed system of a kind of tyranny of which one wasn't previously aware.

I received an appreciation from the DB:

Excellent, excellent post, binra. Thank you for this significant food for thought and personal introspection.

I replied:




Thankyou for joining in a willingness to pause and consider. (The parsing of thought-forms can occur algorithmically without any actual relationship - not unlike computers reacting to each 'other' in 'market trading').

I like to turn that phrase around. To invite or discern 'Thought for Food' in all circumstances - that is - to become responsible for my diet when it comes to thoughts explicitly or implicitly communicated to my awareness. It doesn't matter what thoughts come in so much as what I validate by reaction. That is an area of choice many are unaware of.
If I suck into thought that actually is out of true with who in all honesty I hold myself to be, then I invite conflict and distortions or limitations into my mind - (whilst likely blaming someone or something else). It is an ongoing education - often an unlearning of what I had thought or needed to believe was true.
So while of course we have to operate various structures of organisation as a society, I feel these will  inevitable embody and reflect the accepted thought of the times. What may be less apparent is that the human conditioning operates on many levels and guises such that what we present or think we believe is out of true with what we actually believe but have in a sense designated to 'unconscious'.
The illusionist distracts attention to hide what is going on. The mind is distracted to look only 'outside' by a kind of illusionist within that is also tapped into by manipulators without. For the attempt to hide our fear or our sense of inadequacy or unworthiness is NOT undoing or healing it. Rather it gives it power to operate in the shadows. And it is these apparently weak points of self-doubt or self-rejection and division, that manipulators target. But they are only weak while we are unaware that we hold them. An honesty to our fear allows us to be in relation to it and to move through it or past its dictates. A willingness to look within and without concurrently brings back the focus of a true mindfulness. It is our natural presence. The dictate to NOT look within operates the self-protective program of hiding what we were in the past, unwilling or unable to face or to tolerate.
I might suggest that the 'unconscious' that was supposed to have been put out of mind, is rising all about us as our experience of the world.
It is not easy to communicate THAT there is a coercive element in our inherited consciousness make up to the persona of belief that survival and freedom lie in KEEPING it hidden. Hence the often insane lengths that people go to against all reason in defending a personal agenda to which they have no perspective on or relationship to - because it is 'running them' as 'reality'. Those who 'know not what they do' may believe they know exactly what they are doing - but it is all within the re-enactment of their separation programming - ie: the attempt to overcome, deny or coerce that which their separation script is projected upon. But NO amount of coercing symptoms actually deals with the cause - which simply re-manifests in what is generally a subtler level of symptoms. Thus we become victim to our own complexity of 'defence' until the 'structure' breaks down and a greater perspective comes through.
The hidden personal agenda lies within the forms of accepted 'righteousness'. What else can a mask be made from BUT the forms that pass muster? But who remembers who they are, free of mask - when there are levels of masking each defending the others - to which one is automatically triggered or baited into with hardly a moment's peace in which to notice?
If we look upon our script and recognize it is a script of our own making - albeit with others, then we have opportunity to release that which no longer serves and let a truly fresh appreciation inspire us. People try to teach this as a form of coercive personal accomplishment - perhaps because that is the only framework that many see as holding value. But is there anything so dangerous as good ideas applied by the 'well intentioned'?

Death and Taxes

A lie is a form of death to a whole or undivided awareness. As if a personal investment has spun itself separate of it true context and then spins a redefinition of its context to support the lie. Taxes are the overhead of maintaining a lie. Lies grew in the mind of Human a very long time ago such as to adulterate a true currency of Thought. However a lie feeds upon truth even whist denying it for there to be ANY true capacity to believe it or want to believe it. The parasitic mind of the lie interjects between a wholeness of relational being - between the need and the provider of need as the 'moneylender in the template' - and does so within the fear of fear or the wish to hide fear and escape magically by clever thinking. Devotion to the lie as if it is the truth of order against chaos, or power against powerlessness, relegates it as the lesser evil and therefore accepted conditioning from which one acts oblivious because it is not questioned or challenged - and to do so will merit rejection and exclusion from fellow devotees, as a lie must seek external alliances of reinforcement - positively or negatively, in attempt to validate itself.

I write at the level of consciousness. The world reflects back the ideas, beliefs and definitions that fruit in the various scenarios that unfold. The idea of coercing the world is the idea of coercing Life. Such gives rise to materialism of a sense of disconnection from the higher more inclusive levels of consciousness, and the will to power and its resultant spiral of reaction. Its war on symptoms and refusal to address true cause - always projecting it away onto the world in a device of diversion and division.

If the problem is a false foundation (re sentence 2 above), the answer is simply the recognition and release of the false - for the true is already there to replace it. The mind believes this is nonsense or heresy because it is the belief that it is the guide and protector of the self and all else is enemy. And so everything sets up as a defence of the mind that has been given a function it cannot really perform of fulfil, and as coercive control engenders reaction, so does it ratchet up the perceived need for more control. It is an addiction to a sense of power outside oneself that one otherwise lacks, and we 'get our fixes' in a multitude of ways of multi-layered complexity. False needs set up a false economy. Until the economy relates more to what is destructive to or undermining of Life than to any actual abundance, and yet the principle of abundance is simply operating in the negative, as an abundance of lack, of debt, of problem, of fear.

"Go forth and multiply" can be interpreted materially as is generally accepted, but it is the fundamental nature of consciousness itself - for what we give focus and desire and value TO by accepting as true of us - DOES go forth and multiply.

In respect of polarized arguments that fail to achieve communication, I invite the consideration of a third party that profits from such distractive device. In the world there may appear to be those who work to manipulate from the shadows while diverting attention with bait that sets the attention elsewhere. This is the pattern in the template of human consciousness as generally conditioned, that I draw attention to. Even if one can deal with one or more of the symptoms, the cause remains.

The cause can be compared to a bot-net of compromised computers that are not aware of being reprogrammed to operate a foreign will. This also occurs in many parasites in nature who have the capacity to alter the thoughts and behaviours of their host to act in the parasite's interest and not of the host or its colony.

A fundamental truth is that an unwatched mind has left the door open to any kind of thinking and often may not be aware of being deceived until a prodigal wasteland really hits bottom. Deception is a choice we don't know we are making. When we become aware it is a choice or the result of a choice, we are free to choose differently. More in align with who we know, feel and believe ourselves to be. And this resonates a wholeness of being; a joy within, even amidst adverse circumstance.

Creative endeavour is a collaborative synchronicity inspired by passion and presence both. It embodies and reflects an inner wealth of the inspiration and imagination to a shared appreciation, and a growth of a wider culture of valuing the source of the movement of true desire.

The shift into a negative or fearful imagination and agenda is evidence of a breakdown of communication within our own consciousness and not a proof of an evil will to be hidden or denied and yet lurking in the shadow to come out when 'justified' as vengeance or simply hate.

Vigilance, or being mindful of the thought beneath perception, and a willingness for discernment of resonance with who we truly are detoxifies the mind and brings it back to its core functionality. For like a government it is a servant of a greater - shared will. Not a mob mind or a lobby of coercive intent - but as the dynamic balancing of interests within consciousness - as opposed to the rational constructs that seem like good ideas but have back door agenda unbeknown to their followers.

One is simply not going to talk to the false identity and expect it to listen. But within every living call is the instinct to move toward nutrient and away from toxin, but the mind of fig-leaf justifications for false self-definition, would make the nutrient more fearful than the devil we think we know. Thus are we more than capable of believing we are choosing for our good - or against our greater evil, when in fact fuelling and maintaining the very framework by which we are unknowingly deceived. Witness the love of hating and the hate of loving - such that 'kindness' and smiles are used to mask loveless intent, and 'truth' used as a weapon for private agenda.

Sickness can be an evacuation or retching forth of what does not belong - and as such a process of renewing health. But to seek to get rid of our hatred and fear by scapegoating the other is a temporary relief that fuels a deeper cycle of suppression and inevitable crisis.

Bringing forth integrity of being through whatever we do and whoever we meet is not a call to sacrifice life to a moral coercion. It is to be restored to the joy of sharing life as an alignment and expression of who you truly are. The 'How' is usually demanded by fear of change; by the establishment. But one step at a time is an ongoing practice that shifts perspective from manually controlling life as if it is hostile to us, to an inner rebalancing and integration in flow - that includes and embraces and harmonizes the identification within the personality, so as to become more conductive to the intuitive AND truly intellectual qualities of expression, rather than locked into rationalisations of a failure to love. Love is an extension of the gift of Life - in all its qualities. To seek to make our self special is to reject the Gift in order to exclusively focus on our pet project - which can only result in a conflicted experience.

I write to add a perspective to the consideration that each is of course always free to receive or not, and accept or not, as is resonant and relative to the currently active purpose in the reader.


I wrote this into a Daily Bell editorial as a willingness to illuminate beneath the forms of polarised argument, and toward restoring a true foundation for economy and culture.

Corporate 'self'

Corporations vs. Capitalism
By Philippe Gastonne in a Daily Bell article



Comment:

The oil cartel recognized a long time ago that to extend their market capture to oil derived synthetic drugs, they would need to wield influence that then became control over the principle medical colleges. This operates as 'philanthropy' and gives both positive PR and leverage in one agenda.
Economics often attends to an ideational construct that does not perhaps fully address the underlying issues of power - to which money flow or financial status is simply a tool.
Power can be defined on different levels and those who subscribe to and trade in such definitions give it currency.
When insanity is no longer disguise-able, it behoves the fragmented consciousness to yield to a true sanity that is not manufactured as a re-definition by a would-be power - nor merely reacting against such perceived evils and thereby being negatively defined By them.
Corporate law is a significant factor in the 'entity' we call corporate.
Much of what we decry or hate in our world is simply the logical outcome of ides and definitions to which we give allegiance by regarding them as meaningful. The definitional templates of Consciousness by which we live and act and experience being human may be coercively imprinted in our conditioning, but they are not actually operating against our will. That is to say, there are hidden pay-offs that are involved in our subscriptions to fear-based thinking, which dissolve or are seen as without foundation when brought to light.
The corporate is effectively outmanoeuvring the state and capturing regulatory bodies such as to mean there IS no state in terms of what ever that once meant - but more a regional puppet reality through which power operates. When the global state is in place, corporate power will be stripped back just as Stalin used and then eradicated the industrialists... for power - or rather the will to power - only uses its puppets until they are no longer of use - and then they are discarded or neutered of any potency or voice. It is a kind of death wish in the form of a carrot worthy of attaining or a stick too fearful to face.
The distortions of fear give rise to the mind that seeks to hide from fear as well as the mind that hides its fearful agenda in deceits. They dance together. The idea of Sovereignty is much deeper than that of political kings - it is the idea of free will at the very foundation of what it is to Be Human. That this idea has been corrupted and adulterated and thus usurps Sanity is a basis from which to uncover for oneself the recognition and nature of what free will actually is - instead of operating from inherited conditionings of generational compounded errors.
My own witness is that willing has become subverted to a conditioned wilfulness that believes itself free. Hence willingness is the capacity to pause this mechanism from its defaults and question and feel and know one's own purpose - free of such distortion or false framing.
Without a true foundation - all else can only persist in variations on a theme yet to be brought into light and recognized as false or meaningless. No one persists in the meaningless once recognized as such. But while it can be defined in terms of 'increased productivity' or 'opening trade from regulatory barriers' - it can still attract allegiance.
It is all a matter of choice - but unless one lives and knows one's purpose, one has effectively chosen to let others decide for you.
What is purpose? It is what comes First. Those who seek to fit the Life into their goal seek power at cost of Life. It is a lesson plan in futility.

Global Warring ; Primate Change?

'Global warming not progressing as fast as depicted in worst-case models'

A new study shows natural variability in surface temperatures can account for observed changes in the recent rates of warming from decade to decade.

The idea of Science is a freedom from distortions of coercive agenda in uncovering an ever clearer current account of what is, relative to where we believe and experience ourself to be.

The idea of a coercive agenda is to want what is to be different than it is, to such degree that the model is used as a lens or filtering framework of misinterpretation.

The ego or sense of self of such a model thus reinforces or defends itself against any fundamental change as the basic psychology of defence against threat.

This allies itself with anything that funds or supports its premise, and forgets or neglects the original scientific enquiry.

A limited and blinkered self-righteousness is thus manipulated as technologism and scientism propaganda for agendas of which few are aware because it is hidden in a blindspot of presumed, believed and WANTED true.

The underlying racket cultivates human self-specialness in order to capture and then induces scarcity in which guilt and fear allow the blatant manipulation of populations. Truly, we do this collectively unto ourselves, wherever we may seem to be on the 'pyramid of power'.

Testing the 'spirits' is discerning the psychology at work. That climate is changing is not in question. The immediate reaction of guilt - as a result of knowingly being out of accord with our nature and our environment - generates a fear driven agenda, and where Chicken Licken screams, Foxy Loxy is sure to turn up.

Re-aligning with our true nature is the restoration of an unconflicted capacity to relate to ourself and others; absent coercion.
Re-aligning science to its true function can raise the dissected corpse of an ignorant and arrogant materialism from the dead.

Planetary climate change is here - with and without what we are doing knowingly and somewhat under guise of obfuscation or 'clever' accounting - and black ops or rogue agenda that include any kind of weather manipulating technology as well as psyops of deceit, disinformation and staged events.

If one believes truth = dominance at all costs, then everything else is subsumed to that belief, for whom the only sin or crime is losing. Once the other is redefined as collateral damage or worthless - there is no relationship; only coercive manipulation.

However raw coercion commands no allegiance excepting the pursuit of tyranny and so the mask must be played out as part of winning the war-game. Without the mask, there is no war. Only relationships of creative challenge and conscious endeavour.

The propagating of dissension in 'either/or' generates polarised extremism at cost of discarding willingness and functionality of relationship and communication. For this is the condition in which the false can not maintain its illusion of credibility.

This calls for pausing of self-righteous reaction and allows observing the nature of our reaction and what is driving it. Personal identity either serves or obstructs our true self, and conflict is the diversionary distraction by which to not recognize what is in fact going on.

The magical identity hides hate

The article: The Magical Illusion of a Christian America
raises ideas of religious identity or indeed anti religious identity. I felt to comment thus:

- - -
Definitions SEEM to bring a sense of identity in stability and thus an illusion of control along with an inherent bias of self-specialness that makes them rigidly defended against change rather than fluidly part of an unfolding conscious appreciation of that which identifies Life, Self and Meaning as an ever fresh recognition and extension of value.

Definitions are part of the current experience of the human consciousness but are generally not recognized as human conditioning except by those who would mask a private agenda behind the appearance that has become accepted in place of the tangible presence of value.

'Christian' thus comes to mean whatever anyone decides it means to them in absence of any demonstration of Christ love extended in recognition.
In other words, the mind redefines all things unto its own image and then seeks to prevail, that is, to make its version 'true' by invalidation or denying threat to its 'identity', that is held sacrosanct and not open to question or revision excepting it will 'evolve' in terms of adapting and surviving - including dropping significant aspects of the identity to change the form of the mask.

Personal identity is defence within a presumption of threat and hostility. It may join with others in mutual agreements that make a relative peace but always as a group that defends itself likewise.

Everything remains open for Humanity to accept and embrace its true and abundant inheritance BUT for the assertion of personal will upon a true or honest communication - for Life Is Communication - not merely information but the relational dance of meanings discovered, embraced and shared.

The Jesus story and its teaching are exactly illuminating this facet of the human conditioning, but instead of accepting the message, the messenger was made special, separate, and no longer an example in which to recognize our own Life. If anything it generally became subverted to the old religion of guilt and sacrifice of joy for this has been the way of the world.

A lie seeks whatever works to justify itself and thus adulterates the currency of exchange with division and coercive reaction. It may not believe itself a liar, but if asserting certainty as a way of denying self-doubt, the truth is not being communicated because it is feared.
More than that, what is being communicated is actively working to protect against such fear being brought to awareness and to prevent exposure of whatever tricks are being employed to obfuscate, or sow dissension or diversion from critical points.

The personal identity is in a sense a fig-leaf lie that finds mutually agreed currency and reinforcement by conflict and reaction as much as by agreement.
Who are we beneath our mask? We are that which can truly know and be known. We are the freedom to persist in mask or be open to communication. But within the mask we believe that what is behind the mask is fearful and unacceptable. Until we look within and uncover our true humanity - which we do not manufacture or distort except by taking image and worshipping it.
Kindness is of a kind. Self-specialness is inherent un-kindred. There is a core psychology that can be noticed regardless of the cultural packaging, and identifying this psychology within our own conscious responsibility is waking from the spell of reactive defence to a truly grounded presence - that will then express itself in every kind of cultural or innovative way - but as a willingness of extending an honest presence in which to recognize the other as ourself instead of wanting otherness to be the dumping ground of our unowned and unhealed hatred.
I've gone into a particular direction in this comment, but the illusion of a mask is already magic. Seeing the illusion is breaking the spell. Not to attack the mask or the choice to use it - but to open up a channel of communication where before there was none.
- - -

The following comment to the main article:

I wish I could agree with the conclusion. We've got quite a way to go to become a nation of tolerance. Sadly.

My reply:

The idea of tolerance is brought into being by intolerance. Likewise patience is called on amidst impatience.
But a genuine willingness to relate, to listen and communicate does not start of from predjudice or fear of loss, and then seek to keep face, and so it does not think or define itself 'tolerant' but simply engaged in living relational being.
The attempt to build a world of love within hatred can never ever succeed.
One has to acknowledge the hatred and the fears and wounds beneath to release it.
So I might regard myself as intolerant of tolerance and intolerance - but actually I just don't see through that framework.
It is the fear of hatred and the fear of fear that gives power to them - and those who seek worldly power know this well and use it to get your vote of fear and hatred instead of a discerning presence within they cannot hide the hate and fear that drives their agenda. Now who does not seek worldly power, being free of all hate and fear, throw the first stone...

Strangers at the Dinner Table

Immigration at the Dinner Table

(Daily Bell article)

- - -

The framework or agenda within which something operates is what it in effect is - whereas when it seems to be something 'known' a hidden agenda hides within that believed 'known' and effects the usurpation of the mind.

Shifting from a personally polarised dissension of reaction that currently accepted frameworks embody to be curious as to what is in effect revealing its cause, is 'looking within' as an integrative context to 'looking out' at the world. (Which is to release the reactive personal identity in yielding to a genuine willingness and curiosity).

We know by now that sowing dissension is the modus operandi of tyranny by deceit, and so dissension itself is a symptom of corrupted or adulterated definitions. Manipulating perception operates by substituting a falsehood or partiality for true. Once one loses a true grounding, the fall can be orchestrated by the efforts of one's own attempt to defend a false identity.

Ideas accepted and acted out have inevitable or logical consequences, which then become the 'market' to plunder, that the idea of plunder starts out from.

Everyone can be seen to be acting in accord with their world as they each and in each moment believe and thus experience it to be. The personalisation of difference as a reactive reinforcement of identity diverts from uncovering one's own predicates or foundation.

An identity in reaction is no true foundation at all and yet seems so very obviously fact when enough agree it true.

There are many many instances of history where confusions and cultural schism of wars and migrations due to calamity have effected co-fusions or blended shifts of cultural adjustments. Social engineering attempts this model manually - as everything of the disconnected ego sense attempts to manually replicate and replace what it otherwise has no authority patent or control over.

War on Life is aka asserting a lie in the face of true. The obvious rationality for this is fear. Fear is not a true foundation from which to live.

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...."

The New Militarism: Who Profits?

The New Militarism: Who Profits? By Ron Paul 
A Daily Bell editorial
- - -

My comment:
Money isn't the motive excepting it serves an agenda of gaining and consolidating power. Strategic 'profits' also come into the balance sheet.

Who profits from inflaming and fuelling conflict? Proxy puppeteers who are themselves hollow?

Our real choice is the embodying of who we truly are. Wars operate to block and distract such awareness, hollowing out true wealth and substance and replacing with debt-driven identity founded, conditioned and managed by reaction.

Ideas operate invisibly until revealed in a fresh perspective - as if money itself is wealth. Ideas become currency by sharing them. Manipulators attempt to coerce ideas which always and can only 'come back with interest' in its own timing. I appreciate what I know of Ron Paul's willingness to communicate what other players are scripted to hide.

If our self and world definition gives rise to a system of idea by which a few enslave the many while destroying the whole, then there is a natural call to re-evaluate everything we believe true and test it within a deeper honesty than we may at first be willing to open to.

Coercive power acting as if to overcome coercive power simply consolidates and densifies identity defined in powerlessness - for only the fear of powerlessness drives the lust to power and generates and adapts a personality that ONLY operates within war.

The few embody for all a role in the picture of a consciousness ruled by fear - and generally by shadow fear that is not at first apparent, and last to be recognized in one's own thought system - for the personality is designed to mask it.

A mask of presentation is not true substance; but a manipulation. Presence extends or embodies a genuine willingness of communication that the mask cannot see - but can catch up with when the effects show up on the radar and then absorb or subvert the forms that it can see. Everything can be mimicked but how to tell the real deal? "It takes one to know one".

To study the arts of the 'enemy' is to invite a trojan horse into one's heart and mind. The 'enemy' is a shifting changing idea of the hated and feared - or the scapegoat for such guilt. We export hate in 'self righteous' deceit and then import the pain that wounds and fuels the hate. Until of course, we recognize what we are subscribing to or participating in and choose to face and move through our fears rather than be ruled by them in shadow puppetry of thinly veiled hatred stripped of any residual appeal to legitimacy.

Perhaps the last shred of justifiction is in reaction to being attacked as evil, for the mind is a cherry picker and will see the error in another or goad and bait to bring it out and 'see' the evil in the other. That's its job until it is aligned to serve truth rather than determine it - and make a self out of warring over it.

The New Militarism: Who Profits?

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.
