I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the world is on fire right now. From protests and riots to bloodshed and coups d’état, it seems that every corner of the globe is being rocked by an explosion of unrest . . . and no, I’m not talking about the Great Popeyes Chicken Freakouts of 2019.

So, in case you’re looking to get up to speed, here’s your handy-dandy guide to what’s happening around the world today. (In alphabetical order, no less!)

Bolivia

Here’s a riddle for you: When is a foreign-backed, militarily imposed coup d’état not a foreign-backed, militarily imposed coup d’état? I’m sure you already know the answer: When the US wants it to happen.

Just ask the people of Bolivia. If you read the MSM headlies . . . errr, headlines . . . you’d be given to believe that “Bolivian Leader Evo Morales [Has] Step[ped] Down.” According to this New York Times-approved mockingbird repeater narrative, the long-time Bolivian president “stepped down” this week amid “unrelenting protests by an infuriated population that accused him of undermining democracy to extend his rule.”

If you suspect there may be more to this story than the NYT and its MSM cohorts are letting on, then give yourself a cookie. You’re exactly correct.

The first thing to note is that this is not a spontaneous, populist uprising against an unpopular autocrat so much as a coup d’etat by the military and police on behalf of their foreign backers and paymasters. And (wouldn’t you know it?) the military and police leading the charge just happen to be Washington-connected insiders.

Secondly, the “disputed election” which has supposedly set off this chain of events was the result of a “damning audit” by the Organization of American States (OAS) . . . that was immediately debunked as wet hot garbage completely devoid of basis in fact. Later, a thorough statistical analysis of the electoral results exposed the OAS’ evidence-free assertions of foul play as the coup-supporting propaganda it is.

And, if all that wasn’t enough, leaked audio has just emerged showing the country’s foreign-backed opposition leaders plotting to use the US Embassy to coordinate an effort to destabilize the country and create a “civil-military transitional government” if Morales won the election. The audio specifically names US senators Ted Cruz, Bob Menendez and Marco Rubio as being on board with this agenda.

But even if we were to believe the bot army of newly created zero-follower Twitter accounts that are all tweeting the exact same thing about how “there was NO COUP,” the latest developments prove that this entire affair has nothing to do with “the will of the people” or “democracy in action” or any other twaddle. Opposition lawmaker Senator Jeanine Añez Chavez has simply assumed the title of president, despite not even having run for the office in last month’s election. And, just like what we saw earlier this year in Venezuela, the fact that this “spontaneous people’s uprising” is culminating with a non-candidate trying to take over the country will be heralded as a step forward for freedom and democracy by the democracy-spreaders at the US State Department and their adjuncts in the compliant corporate media.

Make no mistake: This is what a coup d’état looks like. The only question is whether, like last year’s coup attempt in Venezuela, this putsch, too, will fail in spectacular fashion.

Chile

Of all the protests, coups and chaos sweeping Latin America right now, arguably the most surprising flare up is taking place in Chile. Safe, stable Chile. Chile of the rising living standards and growing middle class. You know, the country that produced the so-called Miracle of Chile. Yes, that Chile.

Well, it turns out that all it took to derail that miracle was a 30-peso Metro fare hike and some activist high school students. At least that’s the narrative being propounded in the pages of journalistic titans like The Toronto Sun. But if you want to find out what all of this means you can click on Bloom(Bilder)berg for their hot take on how this effects the people that really matter: foreign investors. Or you can always go to Rothschild Reuters for a transcription of the latest government press release telling us how this unrest will lead to job losses and fuel hikes.

Whatever you do, don’t listen to those conspiracy theorists whispering that the unrest might have something to do with the fact that scandal after scandal after scandal has engulfed Chile’s government, military and national police in recent years. Or the fact that literally dozens of other scandals have lowered trust in public institutions to all-time lows. Or the fact that that government has responded to the protests by declaring a state of emergency, imposing a curfew, and empowering the military to shoot, beat and/or hospitalize hundreds of the protesters.

Yeah, it’s better to go with the MSM on this one. It’s probably a bunch of high school students upset about a 30 peso Metro fare hike.

France

Remember the yellow vest protests? Yeah, that’s still a thing.

The French protest movement that kicked off almost exactly one year ago—named for the gilets jaunes or “yellow vest” safety jackets that each French car owner is required to have by law—is still around today, even if the numbers taking to the streets each weekend have dwindled.

As the one year anniversary of the first yellow vest rally takes place this weekend, look for a lot of soul-searching and analysis about what the movement really means and where France is heading. Don’t expect too much introspection about what sparked the demonstrations in the first place, however: A rise in carbon taxes that made it clear that the man-made global warming agenda is less about saving the earth and more about ensuring the technocrats’ monopoly on power.

One thing you will not have to look out for is crowds of tourists on the streets of Paris in 2020. The French government has had to abandon its hopes of luring 100 million foreign visitors next year, as Brexit and the yellow vests are being blamed for a lack of tourists in the country.

Hong Kong

The Hong Kong protests—which I wrote about in these pages in August—continue apace, with police now openly firing on protesters. As of press time, protesters are continuing to block roads in the city’s Central business district, causing closures of schools, business and transportation links.

These developments follow a week of escalation in which two people have been killed, Chinese president-for-life Xi Jinping has waded into the issue with calls for a restoration of order, and the Hong Kong government has had to officially deny rumors that a curfew would be imposed this weekend.

Meanwhile, good old Uncle Sam is coming to the rescue with an expedited bill that would require an annual congressional review of Hong Kong’s special trading status. The idea is that if Beijing interferes or tries to take over control of the “Special Administrative Region” then Washington could effectively pull the plug on its economy and eliminate its importance as a regional finance hub. But, as actual Hong Kongers point out, all the bill would actually do is punish the people of Hong Kong for being taken over by China, which seems a bit counterproductive. (It’s almost as if Uncle Sam doesn’t actually care about Hong Kong and is just using it as a convenient proxy battleground for its beef with Beijing.)

But if you’re on the edge of your seat wondering how things will turn out, fret not; the banksters at Bank of America Merrill Lynch have the answer. According to the head of the bank’s China equity strategy, the upshot of the protests is that China will interfere in Hong Kong’s affairs “a lot more” going forward. So there you go. You can take that to the bank.

Iraq

Although you probably haven’t heard much about it, Iraq is convulsing in riots, demonstrations and bloody protests that make one question whether the Iraq war ever really ended. (Spoiler: it didn’t.) Just check out some of the scenes for yourself.

319 people have so far been killed and 15,000 wounded since the violence erupted on October 1st. The movement may have started as a predominantly Sunni-led revolt that includes heavy doses of anti-Shia and anti-Iran sentiment, but it has since mutated into a wider protest against the corrupt and feckless government of Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi. As Kelly Vlahos notes in a recent article on the subject:

“But it is the Shia in the capital and the south now who are leading the protests, charging that the elites in the government are hoarding the national resources while regular Iraqis cannot seem to climb out of the destitution imposed on them through war, corruption and sectarian conflict.”

So one guess which side of the story the corporate media in the west are pushing? The message is clear: As long as the protests are against Iran or pushing sectarian division, they’re AOK with Uncle Sam. When and if this becomes a more populist movement against corrupt leadership in the shell state that is “post-war” Iraq, however, you can bet your bottom dollar that we will be hearing how these demonstrations are a threat to democracy in the middle east and need to be controlled.

Where next?

I could go on. And on and on and on. There are the violent anti-austerity protests in Ecuador that are now being blamed on those no good Cubans. There are the street demonstrations in Lebanon which resulted in the death of one of the protesters this week and promises that a new government will be formed within days. Heck, even the infamously polite Canadians are getting in on the act, with westerners disgruntled by the reelection of Justin Trudeau forming a separatist “Wexit” party in my home province of Alberta that is already threatening to metastasize to Saskatchewan and British Columbia.

But the fact that all of these protests and demonstrations are flaring up all around the world at the same time invites us to speculate whether this trend is merely a coincidence or whether the Old World Order of neoliberal globalism under Pax Americana is finally coming apart at the seams. And, if there is something deeper going on here, then that leaves only one question: Where next? Stay tuned . . .

Living through and by imagination is a path.

But no one defines it for the individual who is moving along it.  No one lays it out.  No one is in charge of “the end result.”

And no one explains exactly what discoveries will be made along the way.

Philosophies, metaphysical and spiritual systems, and religions are all about content.  They fill in “the reality behind the reality.”

They depict places you will arrive, and what you will find when you get there.  They present cosmologies.  They paint pictures.

They tell you what you must do and avoid doing, in order to see what they see.

But the secret behind the secret behind the secret is: you see what you see.  You see what you imagine and create and invent.

It’s your substance and content.  It’s your painting.  You’re painting it.

You do the imagining.

Why is this a spiritual path?

Because as you go, answers to questions you have will spontaneously arise.  Answers to the big questions.

This is a side effect of living through and by imagination.

But again, these will be your answers.  They aren’t prepackaged.

In fact, you may find that the answers you’ve previously accepted as final and ironclad turn out not to be your answers at all.

Living through and by imagination means that you create and invent what you most profoundly want to create.  Not just today, or tomorrow, but on and on, without end.

It is a path.  It has no conditions attached to it.  You aren’t obligated to believe in some particular thing in order to embark on it.

The history books and the spiritual books don’t mention this path.  Those books have already decided what paths they prefer, and what the end result should be.

A creator creates.  The process and the engagement produces multiple realities that never existed before.  New spaces, new times, new energies.

New life, new future.

There is always a certain amount of whining and remorse as one enters the theater to see the movie called Reality, after buying the ticket.

“Is this a good idea?”

You can already feel a merging sensation. The electromagnetic fields humming in the theater, even before the movie starts, are drawing you into the space.

Your perception of x dimensions is narrowing down to three.

You take your seat. You look at the note you’ve written to yourself, and you read it again:

“Don’t forget where you came from. Don’t forget this is just a movie. Don’t fall asleep. The serial time in the movie is an artifact. The binding feeling of sentimental sympathy is an induction. It’s the glue that holds the movie fixed in your mind.”

“The movie will induce nostalgia for a past that doesn’t exist. Don’t surrender to it.”

“You’re here to find out why the movie has power.”

“You want to undergo the experience without being trapped in it.”

“The content of the movie will distract you from the fact that it is a construct.”

The lights dim.

On the big screen, against a gray background, the large blue word REALITY slowly forms.

Suddenly, you’re looking at a huge pasture filled with flowers. The sky is a shocking blue. You can feel a breeze on your arms and face.

You think, “This is a hypnotic trance weapon.”

Now, the pasture fades away and you’re standing on an empty city street at night. It’s drizzling. You hear sirens in the distance. A disheveled beggar approaches you and holds out his trembling hand.

He waits, then moves on.

You look at the wet shining pavement and snap your fingers, to change it into a lawn. Nothing happens.

You’re shocked.

You wave your hand at a building. It doesn’t disappear.

Incredible.

You reach into your pocket and feel a wallet. You walk over to a streetlight and open it. There’s your picture on a plastic ID card. Your name is under the picture, followed by a number code. On the reverse side of the card, below a plastic strip, is a thumbprint.

There are other cards in the wallet, and a small amount of paper money. You look at the ID card again. There’s an address.

Though it seems impossible, you remember the address. In your mind’s eye, you see a small cottage at the edge of an industrial town. There’s a pickup parked in the driveway.

It’s your truck. You know it. But how can that be?

You walk toward larger buildings in the distance.

Three men in uniforms turn a corner and come up to you. Behind them emerges a short man in a business suit. He nods at you and holds out his hand.

You know what he wants. You pull out your wallet and give it to him. He looks at the ID card, at you, at the card again.

“You were reported missing,” he says.

“Missing from what?” you say.

“Your home. Your job. What are doing here? Are you all right?”

“I’m fine,” you say. “I was…taking a short trip. I’m just out for some air.”

“In this part of the city?” he says. “That’s not smart. We’ll take you home. Our car is right over there.”

One car sits on a side street. In large red letters printed on the trunk are the words Care and Concern.

You walk with the men to the car.

Waves you’ve never felt before are emanating from it.

Mentally, you try to back up from them. They’re targeting your body. You feel a haze settle over you.

In the haze dance little creatures. They’re speaking. You try to hear what they’re saying.

Now you do. “Real, real, real.”

You look at the short man in the suit. He’s smiling at you.

Suddenly, his smile is transcendent. It’s so reassuring, tears fill your eyes.

But you’re thinking, “They built this so I would be lost, and then they found me. I’m supposed to be rescued. I’ve never experienced being rescued before. I never knew what it meant.”

You hear faint music.

It grows louder. As you near the car, you realize you’re listening to a chorus and an orchestra. The rising theme is Victory.

One of the uniformed men opens the car door.

You nod at him.

“My pleasure, sir,” he says.

The music fades away.

The scene shifts.

You’re standing next to the pickup in your driveway alongside your cottage.

You’re home.

Think, you tell yourself. What’s going on?

You recognize your mind is now divided into two parts. The first part registers sensations from this new reality. These sensations are meant to be sorted, in order to answer the question: How Am I Doing?

The second part of your mind is entirely devoted to perceiving problems and solving them. Everything at this level is organized to constitute problems.

You were never aware of these two sectors of your mind before.

Where did they come from?

Now, as you walk into your cottage and instantly remember the rooms and the objects in these rooms, an accompanying sensation of Familiarity, slightly out of phase, grows stronger.

You realize, without knowing how, that you’re supposed to feel tremendous relief. This is what’s expected of you.

It’s expected of everyone. They live with one another through the touchstone of the Familiar. They share it like bread.

They keep coming back to it. The Familiar is a sacrament.

It’s built in. It’s invented through…electromagnetically induced fields. It’s stamped on every object in this space…

…In order to suggest you’ve been here before. To suggest you belong here.

As you look around the cottage, you apprehend a third sector of your mind. You struggle to identify it.

It’s the fount of a different kind of perception.

Yes.

You keep staring at the cottage and you see space.

You see space that…

Has been placed here. For you.

And at that moment, there is a small explosion behind your head.

And you’re sitting in the theater again.

The movie is playing on the screen. All around you, in the seats, people are sitting with their eyes closed.

You feel a tap on your shoulder. You turn. It’s an usher.

“Sir,” he says. “Please follow me.”

He leads you up the aisle into the lobby, which is empty.

An office door opens and a young woman steps out. She strides briskly over to you.

“You woke up and came back,” she says. She gives you a tight smile. “So we’re refunding your money. It’s our policy.”

She drops a check into your hand.

“What happened in there?” you say. “What happened?”

She shrugs.

“Only you would know that. You must have done something to interrupt the transmission.”

“And the rest of those people?”

She looks at her watch. “They’re probably into their fifth year by now. The fifth year is typically a time of conflict. They rebel. Well, some of them do. They rearrange systems. They replace leaders. They promote new ideals.”

“I had such a strong feeling I’d been there before.”

She smiles. “Apparently it wasn’t strong enough. You’re back here.”

“How do you do it?” you say.

“I’m sorry,” she says. “That’s proprietary information. Did you meet your family?”

“No,” you say. “But I was in a cottage. It was…home.”

She nods.

“If you hadn’t escaped, you would have been subjected to much stronger bioelectric bonding pulses. Do you have a family here?”

You start to answer and realize you don’t know.

She looks into your eyes.

“Go out to the street,” she says crisply. “Walk around. Take a nice long walk for an hour. You’ll reorient. It’ll come back to you.”

“Why do you do it?” you say.

“Do what?”

“Sell this trip.”

“Oh,” she says. “Why does a travel agent book a vacation for a client? We’re in that business.”

You turn toward the exit. The sun is shining outside. People are walking past the doors.

You take a deep breath and leave the theater.

The street is surging with crowds. The noise is thunderous.

You notice you’re carrying a rolled up sheet of paper in your hand.

You open it.

It’s a non-disclosure agreement.

“If you return from your movie experience, you agree to reveal or discuss, under penalty of law, nothing about its nature, substance, or duration…”

You look at the sheet of paper, make up your mind, and it bursts into flames.

You stroll through a museum.

Many rooms, many paintings.

You come upon a large landscape. Fields, cottages, hills, valleys, mountains rising in the background.

While other people move past it with a glance, you walk closer.

It’s lovely.

There, in the lower left-hand corner, you see the beginning of a narrow trail among a stand of pines. You wish you could…

A man is suddenly standing next to you. He’s smiling.

“Go ahead,” he says. “You can do it.”

Absurd. And yet…

You wonder.

“All it takes is conviction,” he says.

You look closer at that trail. Beyond the trees, there is a small cabin. It’s perfect.

And then…you’re walking along the trail. You can feel the soft earth under your shoes. You can smell the pines.

You walk faster, and in a few minutes you arrive at the cabin.

The door is ajar.

You enter.

One room. A bed, a small table, a chair, a fireplace.

On the mantle, there is a book bound in cracked leather. You walk over, pick it up, and open it.

You see drawings of a city. Crowded streets, people sitting in sidewalk cafes, cars, tall buildings. You can hear the noise on the streets.

It’s the kind of city you’d like to visit. There you would be free, unattached. You would walk and live as an unknown person. You would be a stranger, but no one would know that.

The cabin is gone. You’re exiting a ground-floor apartment in the city. You’re emerging on to a street with a briefcase in your hand.

You open the briefcase. In it are several file folders.

You see a sheaf of papers. They seem to be a report. The name of the author…you sense it’s your name.

You have a job. You think about it for a few seconds, and you realize you know where your office is. It’s up the street and over three blocks.

Suddenly, you’re sitting in that office. You look out the window. You’re a dozen floors above the street.

A woman walks in and sets down a cup of coffee on your desk.

She lays a key next to the coffee.

“This is the one you wanted,” she says. “I did a little research and found out it used to be a freight elevator.”

She walks out.

You pick up the key and examine it. It’s made of gray metal. There is a circle inscribed in it, and inside the circle is a square.

You stand up and walk out of the office, along a corridor, and through an exit. There on your left is a large set of double doors.

You insert the key into a hole and the doors open. You step in.

The doors close and you feel the elevator descend.

After a minute, it stops and opens. You step out. The doors close behind you.

You’re standing in a small room. On the walls, you see drawings and inscriptions, pictographs. Maps. Labyrinths. You see five, six, and eight-pointed stars. Animals. Circles containing squares. Other geometric figures. Numbers. Faces.

You turn back to the elevator. You look but you can’t find a place to insert the key. You try to pry the doors apart, but they won’t budge.

…Now, you feel as if you’ve been standing in that room for a very long time. You have memories of trying to decipher the drawings on the walls. You have memories of having almost succeeded, only to be stymied.

It seems you have a long history of having tried to decode secrets.

A man is standing next to you. He’s smiling. His face is familiar.

“I only encouraged you,” he says. “I’m no magician. I just gave you a little push. You supplied the conviction. That’s the main thing you have to understand.”

What does he mean?

A vague memory becomes sharper.

You were walking, a long time ago, in a museum. Yes.

And then you entered…something. And now you’re here.

Without thinking, you say, “There’s a rule against being bigger.”

He nods as if he understands perfectly.

“If I were to exit this place, this whole place,” you say, “I would be bigger. That’s not permitted. It’s a sign of…”

“Excessive pride,” he says.

“Yes,” you say.

“It indicates you’re trying to become ‘better than everyone else’. Which is a criminal offense.”

You think about his words. They spell out a rule, but who made the rule?

“Everybody who is here,” you say, “is smaller than they want to be?”

He smiles again. “That depends on what you mean by ‘want.’”

You repeat, “In this place, ‘bigger’ means ‘criminal.’ But who decided that?”

Then you realize you had a chain wrapped around your neck.

You reach up, and you can feel where the chain was. There is still an ache there.

The man is waiting. He’s looking at you.

“Why are you doing this?” you say.

“Doing what?”

He shakes his head.

He slowly fades out.

He was some kind of artifact. He was a construct that appeared out of your own voice and your own thoughts.

You made him.

You made him out of the scent of pines trees and the sound of water running through the forest and clouds and a desire whose substance you can’t quite fathom.

You sense you are betraying other people. That thought is made out of an old obsession to be like everyone else.

The obsession can become a life, a holy crusade.

But, you realize, it’s not your life or your crusade.

There is a soft explosion just behind your head.

You feel an impulse that is going to lift you off the floor.

And then…

You’re back in the museum.

You’re standing in front of the painting of the pine trees and the trail and the cabin and the fields and the mountains and the sky.

You’re trembling with relief.

A museum guard steps over to you.

“Are you all right, sir?” he says.

“Yes,” you say. “Yes, I’m fine.”

He nods.

You look into his eyes, and you see the small room just outside the elevator. That room is inside him.

“How about you?” you say.

His face flushes.

“Have a nice day,” he says.

“You, too.”

He starts to turn away, but then he doesn’t.

“Do you come to the museum often?” he says.

“I like the paintings,” you say. “I’m here several times a week. It’s a fine place.”

“Yes,” he says. “It is. I’ve wanted this job for a long time.”

“Why?”

“I’m protecting something important. I watch the people moving through the rooms and looking at the paintings. I watch them walk into the paintings…”

You nod.

He strolls away.

You continue to walk through the museum.

There are many paintings. Many entrances.

How many people are living inside those paintings? How many ever get out?

Which is more dangerous?
Having a Disease    OR    Having a Prognosis for the Disease
[TRICK QUESTION – WITH A TRICK ANSWER BELOW]

Voodooism, a religious sect practiced in the Caribbean and southern US, combines Roman Catholic ritual with traditional African religious rites characterized by witchcraft and spirit possession. In societies that hold a belief in voodoo, shamans actually do possess a profound power in helping or punishing individuals within the community.

What is the secret behind the “power” of the voodoo shaman? Sorcery? Magic? As you might have guessed, considering I am the author, the answer is Biology. The secret lies in understanding the mind and epigenetics. Of the mind’s two subdivisions, the creative conscious mind, which envisions our wishes and desires, is an expression of our source, or spirit. In contrast, the subconscious mind is a repository of instincts and acquired behavioral programs we engage as habits. While we generally believe that our creative conscious mind is controlling our lives, neuroscience reveals that the character of 95% of our life is controlled by the habits programmed in the subconscious mind.

As described in The Biology of Belief, through seven years of age, a child’s subconscious mind acquires programs, literally beliefs that represent “truths,” by simply observing the behavior of their parents, siblings and community. A vast number of children are programmed with the belief that the words of a given “professional” (e.g., a witchdoctor, or just a … “doctor”) are to be recognized as the source of “truth.” As a consequence, when we are sick, we go to the “professionals” and turn over control of our health to the doctors to whom we entrust our lives.

The power of a positive belief is recognized by science as an expression of the placebo effect. One third of all participants in drug trials experience the positive healing ascribed to a medication, although they received the equivalent of a sugar pill … the placebo effect in action. When a pharmaceutical company offers a medication that promises amazing healing powers over your ailment, and in a drug trial you heal yourself in spite of the fact the medication you received was simply a sugar pill, what healed you? The power of positive thinking!

Generally, it is not reported in these drug trials that members of the placebo group also experienced the negative “side effects” attributed to the drug, although again, they had only taken the sugar pill. The empowerment of a negative belief, known as the nocebo effect, can trigger vomiting, dizziness, headaches, and essentially all manner of life-threatening symptoms, including death. In a similar manner, the same nocebo effect empowers a voodoo shaman’s curse. Specifically, it is the developmental programming of villagers comprising a voodoo cult that causes them to accept the words of the shaman as “truth,” regardless if they are positive or negative pronouncements.

As emphasized, for 95% of our lives, our behavior is controlled by the images held in subconscious mind. These images, whether positive or negative, are translated into complementary chemistry that shape the body and behavior to conform with the belief surrounding that particular image. When the subconscious mind is programmed to accept a chosen “professional” as representing the source of “truth,” the mind then empowers that “professional” to implant any image or belief into that individual’s mind.

Cardiologist and Nobel Peace Prize recipient Dr. Bernard Lown emphasizes that, as with the voodoo shaman, “Words are the most powerful tool a doctor possesses, but words, like a two-edged sword, can maim as well as heal.” The duality of the “professional’s” words and their ability to both heal and maim was illustrated above in the story of the drug trials, wherein participants receiving the inert sugar pill were both helped by the drug (placebo effect) and hurt by the side effects (nocebo effect).

Fabrizio Benedetti, a professor in the University of Turin Medical School, upended the once held belief that nocebo “truths” could only be relayed through the actual “professional.” In an experiment, he led a group of 100 students on a trip high into the Alps, to an altitude of 9800 feet. Days before the trip he privately told one student that the altitude’s thin air can cause migraine headaches. By the day of the trip, the student had provoked a “rumor” that made its way through more than a quarter of the group. Those who heard the “rumor” suffered migraine headaches and an assay of their saliva revealed an exaggerated response to the low oxygen conditions with an elevation of enzymes associated with altitude headaches. Dr. Benedetti’s results demonstrate that the nocebo effect can cause brain biochemistry changes via a network of “socially infected” individuals.

Benedetti’s brain-scan studies also showed that nocebo suggestions initiate a cascade of activation connecting the hypothalamus, with the pituitary and ending up by engaging the adrenal glands. This flow of information, referred to as the HPA Axis, is recognized as the source of the stress response responsible for up to 90% of doctor office visits. Benedetti concludes, “If your fear and belief were strong enough, the resulting cocktail of hormones could be deadly.” Harmful nocebo beliefs that produce illness can be spread very quickly among friends, neighbors, and communities resulting in the production of social nocebo effects in a large population of subjects.

Which is more dangerous? Having a Disease  OR  Having a Prognosis for the Disease.

The answer depends upon the subconscious mind’s developmental program in regard to the belief of who controls your health. The “professional”? Yourself? Please recognize that doctors are in between a rock and a hard place in regard to informing patients of their prognosis. Doctors are legally bound to inform patients of the established ramifications of their illness. However, for at least a third of their patients, it has been established that the words of the “professional” will engage the nocebo effect and unconsciously manifest the prognosis, even one that concludes with death.

YES … there is an upside to this story: As reviewed in the past, we can rewrite any limiting beliefs that have been downloaded into the subconscious mind, and in their place, write more positive programs to enhance our health and happiness. Resource Link: This empowering conclusion is revealed in the science of epigenetics and consciousness studies. Additionally, quantum physics, the most tested, verified and truthful of all the sciences, emphasizes that consciousness creates our life experiences. Consequently, by reprogramming consciousness, we are empowered to take control of our creation and manifest a life we might characterize as “Heaven-on-Earth.”

With Wishes of Love, Light, and Happiness,

The Human Cymatics Vibrational Wave Machine

by Zen Gardner
March 12, 2019

Man, are we ever being directed! Moved around, sifted and sorted, purged and purified, as much as we’ll allow. What an amazing time!

We need each other, and amazingly we’re finding each other. Cymatics is such a fascinating field, how resonant vibration literally moves molecules into beautiful geometric patterns. Conversely, disharmonious energy makes for chaotic and literally ugly patterns, as proven by the late Masaru Emoto’s research with intention and water molecules. But the implications on human alignment and behavior are immense.

It’s all about energy, vibration, resonance. How particles and waves work in the medium of this physical universe, even in the context of quantum physics, is absolutely fascinating. So called science is on the verge of truly integrating metaphysics with physics, as some already have. The implications and possible repercussions on the collective are enormous. Again, I don’t know about any “tipping point” or “event horizon” in either societal progress or conscious awakening as I’ve said recently. Never mind the 100th monkey effect nor the so-called “singularity”, a thoroughly hijacked concept by the anti-human transhumanists. I think these all are valid in a deeply true sense but the confusion factor is big. We don’t know that realm well enough yet. Such presuppositions are arrogant. By definition, we’re operating from a handicapped zone of third dimensional conceptualization of realms beyond our programmed capabilities.

But – our other dimensional senses are awakening. Hence the split into literal worlds of understanding, realization and even existence, as I see it. Those worlds do not reconcile, with or for the lower dimensional viewpoint. Hence the paradox plague on human thinking. OK by me. I like the disruption. But I have seriously digressed….

The Vibrational Shaker-Upper

My point here is that we’re experiencing not just a shake up, but an inter-active cymatic one. We’re in the vibrational phase where particles of all sorts and even living souls move around to where they belong, where like are attracted to like, and are forming beautiful mosaics of powerful connections.

It’s fabulous to watch. I know I see it in my own life. I and many others have seen it for some time with sometimes major shifts, but it’s upon us. Are you being drawn to like minded souls, while others are falling away? Never mind shifts in your perception? This will continue, and even accelerate. Beautiful clusters are forming, as well as ugly ones, as featured in the “news” as if that’s the norm. Don’t focus on those. They’re meant to cause a reaction and join in the lower vibrational astral. The creative is what’s truly happening.

This phenomenon is the nature of Universal expansion – shake, quake, awake and reassemble – break up the old and false attachments to find the new. It always has been that way, at different levels of expansion, but it appears we’re in a highly accelerated phase right now.

The point is, we’re finding each other! Weird as the process is as we’re concurrently going through major personal changes, heart resonance is taking the forefront, where it belongs. It’s totally contrary to all previous programming, even up to and through recent years. It’s totally understandable. Let’s give ourselves a break. It’s fluid, changing, and through that truth reveals itself. It’s in the letting go – of self concepts, identity, or attaching to wanted outcomes, they all play into this – and it’s good!! Let it happen, joyfully!

This just struck me as profound today. Let’s move with the flow toward our true vibration and not be afraid of change and move heartily into it.

The shift is upon us.

Sure beats everything else.

All the best, Zen

“Imagination can produce a level of well-being that is bulletproof, in the sense that, no matter what happens in life, there is a back-up, there is something that can be created beyond the current crisis…” (The Magician Awakes, Jon Rappoport)

“When I use the word ‘magic’, I mean everything that can spring from imagination. Not the silly little things. The big things. The launching of entirely new realities that outdistance what society is producing. And setting a limit on what the individual can imagine and create, and how far he can go, is very much like promoting the idea that every human is ill and should be a medical patient all his life. It’s sheer propaganda that seeks the lowest common denominator, as a sales gimmick. In the case of imagination, we’re talking about the future of civilization and human life on the planet—whether it rises or falls, whether the population finally accepts the notion that every person is a victim and there is no way out…” (Notes on Exit From The Matrix, Jon Rappoport)

In the human psyche, from the moment a newborn baby emerges into the light of day, he/she has a desire for magic.

We are told this is an early fetish that fades away as the experience of the world sets in. As maturity evolves. As practical reality is better understood.

In most areas of psychology, sensible adjustment to practical reality is a great prize to be won by the patient. It marks the passage from child to adult. It is hailed as a therapeutic triumph.

In truth, the desire for magic never goes away, and the longer it is buried, the greater the price a person pays.

A vaccine against a disease can mask the visible signs of that disease, but under the surface, the immune system may be carrying on a low-level chronic war against toxic elements of the vaccine. And the effects of the war can manifest in odd forms.

So it is with an inoculation of reality aimed at suppressing magic.

One of the byproducts of the “reality shot” is depression.

The person feels cut off from the very feeling and urge he once considered a hallmark of life. Therefore, chronic sadness. Of course, one explains that sadness in a variety of ways, none of which gets to the heart of the matter.

It is assumed that so-called primitive cultures placed magic front and center simply because “they couldn’t do better.” They didn’t have science, and they couldn’t formulate a “true and rational” religion with a church and monks and collection plate and a European choir and an array of pedophiles.

Historically, the impulse for magic had to be defamed and reduced and discredited. Why? Obviously, because the Westerners who were poking through ancient cultures had already discredited magic in themselves—they had put it on a dusty shelf in a room in a cellar beyond the reach of their own memory. But they couldn’t leave it alone. They had to keep worrying it, scratching it, and so they journeyed thousands of miles to find it somewhere else—and then they scoffed at it and tried to crush it.

And we wonder why, under the banner of organized religion, there has been so much killing. At a deep level, the adherents know they’ve sold their souls and they’re depressed, angry, resentful, remorseful, and they want to assuage and expiate their guilt through violence.

But the urge for magic is forever.

And yet the charade goes on. While paying homage and lip service to ordinary practical reality seasoned with a bit of fairy-tale organized religion, people actually want to change reality, they want to reveal their latent power, they want to create realities that, by conventional standards, are deemed impossible.

They want to find and use their own magic.

In our modern culture, we’re taught that everything is learned as a system. That, you could say, is the underlying assumption of education. It has far-reaching consequences. It leads to the systematizing of the mind. The mind is shaped to accommodate this premise.

“If I want to know something, I have to learn it. Somebody has to teach it to me. They will teach it as a system. I will learn the system. I will elevate the very notion of systems. Everything will be a system.”

In the long run, that gets you a lump of coal in a sock, a spiritual cardboard box to live in.

The intellectual enrolls at Harvard, he studies anthropology for six years, he flies to a jungle in South America, he digs up remnants of a lost culture, he infers they performed arcane ceremonies six times a week, he writes monographs—and he concludes they were a very picturesque society with fascinating customs and totems, and their brand of magic can best be understood as an inevitable consequence of their matriarchal organization, which itself was an accommodation to rainfall levels.

Back home, the anthropologist takes two Paxil and goes off to teach a class on the meaning of ancient eyebrow trimming in Tierra del Fuego.

Systems are wonderful things. They produce results. They take us into technological triumphs. They help us become more rational. But when they are overdone, when the mind itself becomes shaped like a system, it reaches a dead-end. Then the mind works against the unquenchable desire for magic. Then society is organized as a tighter and tighter system and turns into a madhouse.

And then people say, “Maybe machines can actually think and choose and decide. Maybe machines are alive. What would happen if we grafted computers on to our brains? It might be wonderful.”

People move in this direction after their own minds have been shaped, like putty, into systems. They don’t see much difference between themselves and machines.

The desire for magic in every individual is squelched. So the first order of business is the restoration of imagination, from which all magic flows. Imagination is sitting there, always ready, waiting.

Imagination is saying, “The mind has been shaped into a system? I can undo that. I can liberate the mind and make it into an adventurous vessel. I can provide untold amounts of new energy.”

Life is waiting for imagination to revolutionize it down to its core.

Since imagination is a wild card that technocrats can’t absorb in their systems, they pretend it a faculty produced by the action of atoms in the brain. They pretend it is a delusion that can be explained by demonstrating, for example, that a machine can turn out paintings. Or poems.

“You see? We don’t need humans to make art. Computers can do just as well. Imagination isn’t mysterious at all.”

Technocracy and transhumanism flow from the concept that the human being is just another machine. And any machine can be made to operate more efficiently.

Meanwhile, imagination waits. It never vanishes. It stands by, just in case an individual decides to live a life that overflows with creative power.

If my work in this area has any organized precedent, it is ancient Tibet where, 1500 years ago, before the priests took over with their interminable spiritual baggage of ritual, practitioners engaged in exercises that engaged imagination to the hilt.

This was not about ultimate worship. This was not about some deep substrate in the Universe that one could plug into, to guide his actions and thought. It was about liberating the individual from systems. It was about endless creation.

The first teachers of this Way came from India, where they had been pushed out of the academies of orthodox religious instruction. They were rebels. They had offloaded the metaphysical labyrinths of control. They were, in a sense, artists. Artists of reality.

They were brilliant riverboat gamblers, and in Tibet, for a time, they found a home.

They found students who, as now, were tired of the preaching designed to make humans into sophisticated mind-machines.

These people wanted more. They wanted to awaken their own imaginations and exceed the illusory boundaries of one space and one time.

They wanted magic.

Despite every cynical ploy, that desire is still alive.

Here are several quotes from an introduction to my collection, Exit From The Matrix:

“Magic as a natural outcome of imagination has NOTHING to do with secret societies and their criminal operations and rituals. These secret societies are bent on imposing masters-and-slaves as their ultimate structure. That’s all they have. That’s their limit.”

“Magic is, for example, the invention of new ideas. These ideas prompt the individual to make a sharp turn and invent his future in a way that is far closer to his heart’s desire.”

“To make a literary comparison, magic is more poetry and less prose. Magic makes consciousness more alive.”

“Magic, which is ultimately imagination, lets a person know he doesn’t have a particular place where he should be. That’s a piece of nonsense and deception. ‘You have your place.’ No. ‘The universe is telling you that you have a particular place.’ When you examine that statement closely, it turns out that someone is using an idea of ‘universe’ to impose a limit and a freeze…”

“The idea that magic is ultimately imagination makes no sense to people who already have a shrunken notion of imagination. They abandoned their imagination long ago, because they couldn’t find a consensus for it. They were looking in the wrong place. They should have been looking at artists.”

“Crazy artists. Yes. The people who find it quite natural to invent realities that aren’t already existing. The people who exercise that non-crazy impulse in every field of endeavor.”

“When a person begins to realize that the new realities he can invent are much larger and more far-reaching than he previously considered, he has dipped his foot in the ocean of magic.”

The Neglected Power of Freedom of Choice

by Zen Gardner
February 28, 2018

The degree of freedom to consciously make our own decisions in life is something we’re
continually waking up to. It’s similar to living in the now. We keep trying, knowing it’s right, and
making fresh runs at it daily to live in the moment more and more fully, either by conscious
decisions or spontaneously.

What impresses me is how easy it is to fall into unsatisfactory routines. Be they habitual
behaviors or living within self circumscribed limits, whatever the reasons or excuses may be.
Physical life lends itself to routine for comfort and convenience. This includes survival issues
which can appear quite daunting, and even insurmountable, leading to our environment being
dictated by base needs and desires.

It gets more complicated when we consider personal relationships which we can often become
trapped in. These go hand in hand with whatever environment we find ourselves – our location,
finances and true quality of life being the basic guidelines for most. Now add life purpose to
this and let’s consider how free we are able to find that true fulfillment our hearts crave. They
don’t always work together without seriously draining compromises.

Freedom has to be fought for.

Are we Prisoners of Our Own Making?

The point is we can change these conditions and much more anytime we want. It’s remarkable
just how free we are. We “blame” external limitations such as the system, upbringing, mates,
family, friends and finances, but these conditions rarely lead us to what we truly desire and are
for our highest good. The question looms, are we truly confined by these? Do we only do those
things that are prescribed by previous conditions we find ourselves in, either by choice or by
simply continually defaulting to external pressures and circumstances?

It’s worth re-evaluating these questions continually, as I see it. When we honestly get down to
analyzing the various areas of our personal progress, how would we score ourselves? What
needs changing or challenging that we’re either too lazy to do anything about, or too afraid to
rock the boat and lose our seeming support system or the comfort of our routine, whether
financially, socially, psychologically, spiritually, etc? What’s holding us back from making the
changes we know we need?

More importantly, why are we so often afraid to go into the unknown? What prevents us from
stepping out to find our truest expression?

Change – Ready or Not, Here It Comes

The entire game board of life is being shaken from the cosmic down to the very social structure
of our planet, and it’s wonderful! Only truth will endure. This isn’t good news to those holding
tightly to what they currently have or how they want things to be, whether born from a culturally
reinforced fear based mentality, belief system, deep self issues or not. It’s time to wake up and
shake off the programming and follow our guts, our hearts. It’s way easier to do it voluntarily by
our own volition and heart born desire than to be forced into changes.

A time of personal challenge is now hitting us all. It’s starting with a self clean-up opportunity to
prepare us for much greater changes to come. If anyone is going through this you are not
alone. However, many will miss the significance of what’s going on right now energetically and
will pass along with increased cognitive dissonance and stubborn resistance to change. That’s
their choice, but unfortunately in most cases it will affect the rest of us. This is something to be
very aware of as the external confusion will only grow. It’s just the nature of things right now.
Similar to natural “disasters”, anyone’s life can be turned upside down at a moment’s notice.
When we live a more conscious life this realization is ever before us. The key is to not be at the
wrong place at the wrong time, in every sense.

The active ingredient within us is our free will, the power of choice, no matter the circumstances or conditions.

As Don Juan aptly said:

“Before you embark on any path ask the question: Does this path have a heart? If the answer is no, you will know it, then you must choose another path. The trouble is nobody asks the
question; and when a man finally realizes that he has taken a path without a heart, the path is
ready to kill him. At that point very few men can stop to deliberate, and leave the path. A path
without a heart is never enjoyable. You have to work hard even to take it. On the other hand, a path with heart is easy; it does not make you work at liking it.”

This is a brief life on this planet. One day our lives will end. It’s time to be alive, not dead in
some rut – aptly called a grave with the ends kicked out.

We are fully free to move about the planet, and the Universe. As we always have been.
Let’s exercise our freedom and not let it go to waste. The energy and fulfillment to be released
are unfathomable!

Love, Zen

PS. The above was inspired by a lucid dream where I found myself listening to someone
demonstrating and going on about something I had no interest in, yet felt trapped in some
small gathering of onlookers. As I went through the lucid dream transition to waking up, I found
myself wondering why had I just subjected myself to this experience? The resultant thoughts
and realizations extrapolating that dynamic quickly ensued, leading to honestly making my own
life list evaluating my current situation. A true eye opener from the heart level and great
exercise for me. This is simply sharing my experience and personal insights, for what it’s worth
to others.

Time — The Illusory Phenomenon

by Zen Gardner
February 24, 2019

It’s been wisely said that coming here to live in this 3-D reality is an opportunity. Whether we’ve been here before many times around or are just new, it’s a golden opportunity to experience, learn and evolve. This reality we find ourselves in apparently is a slowed down and densified experience, for whatever purposes. We just have to accept what we’ve been handed, whatever the source. After all, we’re here. We can start from there.

And with It all comes “time”.

What is time? Basically it appears to be a sort of construct, a projected marking system we co-create at this level. It’s therefore essentially an illusion in the truly grand scheme of things, in which we track in slow motion what we’re experiencing so as to understand what is playing out and thereby learn from. The present is the only real time. There is no past, it’s simply the wake of the ship of the present. And there is no future. There never will be. Like the illusory imprint of the past, the illusion of future is a massive concept to wrap our heads around and dissolve into reality.

But this time construct seems to be necessary at this level in some way, yet we need to see it for what it is. It’s simply a tool, like most things; not true reality nor any form of restricting cage in and of itself. This seems to betray what we think we perceive in our minds, but it doesn’t. And it’s not a necessary “evil” or constraint device, unless we let it be. It’s all for good once we learn to operate within it, see it’s potential limitations, and use it for mutual benefit consciously within this experience.

Just Another Paradox. Nothing to be Alarmed About

It’s clear that without this externalized concept of time our learning process would not be as effective at this level, although there are much better learning methodologies in timeless consciousness. It’s an opportunity for a slowed down, step by step process within an extremely challenging dimension. But it’s only a small fraction of our experience. We just need to become functionally aware of the other timeless realms where the real action is – the awareness, or remembrance of, the more truly knowing realms, with no more limiting concepts or foolish beliefs.

This 3D construct is in very limited contrast to other higher dimensional worlds and our own true soul level which is connected to ALL in a completely different realm without paradigms. That’s the place, a very real one, where things are truly conscious and efficiently operate outside of time. We sense this, and long for It to be more present in our lives. Yet here we are.

This low density existence is a different playing field all together. Hence each of us feeling like “strangers in a strange land”…because we are! But by design, so let’s explore and enjoy it. Apparently we chose to come here. We might as well enjoy the experience without getting trapped in it through ignore-ance.

The classic example of the film strip is a good one. If the frames were overlaid to create a “now” experience, coming at us all at once, the various scenes couldn’t be deciphered, at least at this level. Life films are projected one frame after another, in a linear sequence, which our “normal” perception here can therefore grasp. As we’ve often heard, once we depart this life there’s apparently an extremely rapid re-play of our experience here to learn from, with streaming awareness of it at a whole other level.

Immediate transference of all data in this realm would be akin to telepathy, towards which we are currently moving. It exists now all around us, like a cosmic internet, and we use it within us without our full knowledge. We are always capable of using this other dimensional modality, but haven’t yet realized it in most cases. But it’s coming into human awareness more and more now.

Time is a measuring device, a sort of marking system. Linearly, we call such a thing a “ruler” whereby we determine linear space. It holds to the rules, as do 3-D authorities and limitations of all sorts. Some are as straightforward as the nature of our electromagnetic universe and it’s incredible geometric design, and some as personally complex as social designs for behavior and our soul evolution through them.

Ironically we already operate in condensed microbursts of information. Empathy, resonance, and even emotions already operate in that quantum field. We just accept them as normal and somehow differentiate those from the sentient environment we’re within. But we’re catching on during this vibrational awakening. The mind is a recorder and processor according to its input, but is always out of date. The mind is the last thing to be directing our lives. Our energetic core is where it’s all happening, connected to more realms than we’re yet fully aware of. The mind is simply a slave server – and a terrible master. Just look at what minds have done to the planet and society – an ever present teaching tool.

The Paradoxical Irony and the Test of Time

An interesting axiom to consider is, whatever takes us out of living in the NOW is an illusion. We’re here to live in and deal with this realm, but it’s not real in the true sense of reality. Ideas of the past and future are known diversions. They’re mind constructs. We create our reality, moment by moment, a living dynamic. If we choose to go by yesterday’s ideas and constructions we can. But is it the true potential reality? Our true freedom of choice is boundless.

Anyone who has had a waking up experience can attest that they have found they could literally create their life, which we all do anyway ironically enough via our choices. But awareness of our magnificent nature and freedom to do as we wish is essential. We’re constantly catching up to now. That’s our learning experience as we awaken. That time is an illusion is almost common knowledge now but how that applies to our day to day lives has been illusive.

This concept is not the way we normally think. It’s transcending time while living in it. – timelessly. The time test is fundamental as to why we’re here in many ways. Sorrow, pain, regrets, past traumas, longings for what we think will fulfill us or make us happy – these plague us and have no lasting solution here. These issues can be resolved through inner work within conscious awareness, identifying how we’re operating in reactive loops that keep us in limitation. But when we’re conscious, the other stuff just happens as we follow on, let go, and yield to moments, having a conscious driven impetus. Getting out of the way and identifying the ego traps of dead assertions is essential. With this comes setting a limitless identity and letting go of anything else.

When our minds are made up, what we think we’re able or designed to be will certainly keep on repeating. However, we don’t even notice time when we’re consciously engaged – proof right there how consciousness supersedes this 3-D format. When we experience being “in the zone” we also notice time seems to go on hold and even disappear. Just a hint of what awaits us should we activate our full awareness.

We can’t waste time – but it can waste us, if we remain asleep.

It’s time to awaken, more than we’ve ever imagined.

There’s an awakening that outshines our spiritual ambitions, revealing dimensions out of imagination’s reach but as organically familiar as the supportive feel of our pillow as we slide into deep sleep.

The knocking on the door is ever there, infiltrating the clutter that populates our everyday mind. The message is simple: Remember to remember.

But remember what? What essentially matters, and what makes that matter.

This becomes clearer as you attune to what is out of sight, out of comprehension, out of hearing, out of the reach of the familiar. Give more of yourself to such fine-tuning, allowing more stretching of your spiritual radar.

Look inside your looking. And continue listening with your totality to the presence of silence.

It’s as if you’ve just begun to awaken from a cozy nap, your room pierced with slats of sunlight, and you, caught mid-yawn, have no idea whatsoever where you are or what you are, but there nevertheless is a vividly unsettling knowingness surging through you, leaving you too unveiled to pull things together, hyperaware of the absence of familiarity — suddenly you are acutely alive, adrift in the sheer enormity and revelatory implications of it all.

You could be sinking in an unknown sea, or crouching in a thunderously wet midnight jungle, or lying broken on a frozen battlefield or lonely bed or silvery emptiness, even as you start to recognize where you are physically located.

And so with relief you let the familiar invade you, reoccupy and compartmentalize you, not noticing how surreal this is, how consolingly encapsulating. The enterprise of reassembling your sense of self once again clicks into place, and in a very short time you are now a seemingly solid somebody, no matter how often you lose your ID in your dreams.

Still, something hugely other is palpably afoot, still with you, hovering in the back of the background, something that you know, in your secret heart, can at any moment become foreground, making of you an expressive zone for What is ever showing up as you — and everything else.

There is comfort and plenty of undeniable utility in being colonized by the familiar, even as it muffles the knocking at the door, distracting us from the awakening that tugs at our hidden bedcovers.

This awakening establishes itself as we let go of our bearings to enough of a degree to find deeper bearings, remembering that we actually know the way by heart, even when we cannot see or hear or move.

Ours is then a geography of resurfacing continents, wild green uprisings, cascading lava, alien skies, barely remembered faces and embraces that pull, pull, and pull some more at us with a depth of aching that links us up with a sense of significance before which all else pales.

We then look up as if for the first time, even as we look down at our disappearing ground, starlight our witness and crumbling foothold, gravity and vast luminosity making us up over and over and over, leaving us more and more at home with the whole irreducible mystery of it all.

Here, nothing is familiar and everything is recognized.

It is to this that we are ever invited. Remember to remember it.

Where are You Going, My Beautiful, Dying Friend?

by Kathleen Stilwell
January 6, 2019

~ for Patricia ~

 

“The beyond is not what is infinitely remote,
but what is nearest at hand.”
 ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer

You told me you don’t know where you are going, but soon you will know.

It’s too late to worry about such things anyway, you said.  You are content with allowing the next adventure unfold in the same way your life did here.

Maybe we never need to know where we are going, because we are never really here nor there. And wherever we go, there we are. That sort of thing.

You know what I’m saying. If we know who we really are, wherever we find ourselves we will eventually do just fine.

I can feel you smiling as I sit here talking in circles. You pointed that out once. I follow every declared certainty with a question that challenges its certainty. I can’t let myself get away with thinking I know something, after all. What would be the fun in that?

You’ve stood by me as I repeated the same life lessons of the heart over and over. You know this describes me to a T and you’ve loved me anyway:

 “I never make the same mistake twice.
I make it five or six times, just to make sure.”
~ Source unknown

This knowing we don’t know has been one of our strongest bonds as friends. We have always laughed at ourselves, at our endless questions, at our uncertainties, at our insecurities.

We’ve disagreed on many things over the years, but always things that never really seemed to matter outside of the moment.  They were usually things about the structure of the external world or some perception of “reality”, and never about the need for and love of friends who genuinely care and will have our back when times get tough.

Dear loving friend, I wouldn’t be surprised to find out you’ve decided to try out being a fire bird for a while, letting your flaming body burn away any falseness from this world that tried to attach itself but was never really you. I wonder if that’s what you’ve been doing during these recent days of deep sleep as you slowly make adjustments for your shift.

You’ve been up to something for sure, and it’s undoubtedly something remarkable.

When you and your body part company, maybe you’ll just swim away, going deeper into a cosmic sea. You’ll be a lovely mermaid on an uncharted adventure, happy to forget for a while that you ever wondered who you were or where you are.

Or maybe you’ll become that magnificent red dragon you’ve been creating in fabric art. You’ll fly and fly and fly to your heart’s content. You’ll keep on flying until your soul calls you to a place that feels just like home.

But, then again, maybe the mermaid will decide to leave the sea for a while and be companion to the red dragon, learning to breathe in a new way, feeling the exhilaration of soaring through a different kind of sea.

Of course, there’s always that important question of whether or not you are really going anywhere. Maybe there never has been a veil between the worlds and we’ve always just needed to reset our reality detectors and clear the foggy lenses on our spirit eyes.

“Death is not extinguishing the light;
it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.”
~ Rabindranath Tagore

I remember, back in the day, when we talked about lifting that imaginary veil together. You on one side and me on the other.  Of course, it wouldn’t work if we died at the same time. We could see ourselves using some sort of hocus pocus to break through something that seemed so dense, only to burst into laughter when we realized we could have walked right through it at any time.

We humans are so awkward about death.  In rebellion against a culture that turned a sacred mystery into something to fear, we keep reaching for better language to pull us closer to what we imagine is really happening. We now pass over, we transition, we go back to source, and so on.

But we also die. We die in much the same way that we die every day, in the way the teenager dies to give way to the adult who insists on bursting out of the cocoon that ties him or her to youth.

I remember how, when Lukas was a child, I would long to keep a copy of him exactly as he was. Each moment was so perfect. His heart, his soul, his body. Every word he said, every movement he made. Yet I could never want him not to change. Each night the child I touched and loved would go to sleep and would awaken in the morning a new being.  My beautiful son could never stay the same, nor could he stay near me when it was time for him to go away.

None of us can ever stay the same. Only love remains to remind us of how we know one another and what connects us.

We are all adventurers by nature. Fear might tell us we can’t survive death, but we’ve been surviving death from the moment we were born. Each new breath comes only as the old breath moves on. The old dies to the new but who we are remains in love — outside of life and death.

Some face the death of their body in resistance. They agree to cooperate only when they find themselves kicked out the door of this limited hangout. They are pushed or pulled into a new experience, ready or not.

But you, dear sister, have been ready for a very long time.

From the moment we first met those many years ago, you’ve talked about wanting to leave the planet, not via death but just wanting to leave all this behind. There are many, many here who share your sentiments. We all want to co-create a better world and there is talk everywhere about raising consciousness and awakening.

For a while now, you’ve sensed you were dying and, thus, in typical Patti style, took the bull by the horns and started seriously planning to leave.

You joked recently about all the lists and how-to notes you’ve written for your dear husband, Tom, to read when you are gone, because you worry he’ll be lost without you.

Tom, in humor blended with loving awareness and deep sadness, explained these are not just simple instructions, but details on how to handle every aspect of life, including the specific care of each room in the house. Volumes and volumes of practical advice from a woman who never could make heads nor tails of this crazy world.

But, you have been, beautiful soul, always organized in a way that escapes me.

Even when you were deeply depressed, you were organized. And, even when you were depressed, you could create gorgeous works of art. Even when you were depressed, you would reach out your hand to a friend or family member and welcome them in for coffee or wine or one of your delicious homemade meals or desserts.

Yes, in addition to being the most organized person I’ve ever known, you are a brilliant fabric artist, kindest of friends, magical “green thumb” organic gardener, wonderful cook and baker, lover of all animals and rescuer of several dozen stray cats over the years.

As you begin your passing, beautiful Patricia, our hearts are overwhelmed and our eyes flow with tears. We have no way of fully explaining why. Certainly, we will miss you, but the tears are much more than personal sorrow.

The tears flow as if from the deepest rivers beneath the earth, which carry the tears of our ancestors and of children yet to be born. They are tears of joy, of sadness, of deep gratitude, and they flow as sacred waters from a love without end.

The mystery and the love of who you really are and of what is happening right now are too deep to be defined. We are experiencing something breathtaking, a mystery and love that holds us in awe and we feel to the core of our being, yet cannot explain.

“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said,
people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
~ Maya Angelou

Dear sweet soul, you and Tom have both always made me feel welcome, and not only welcome, but treasured as friend.

That’s a very profound thing in this world. To feel welcome. To be treasured. To be able to show up just as we are with no need for pretense.

I will always remember how you reached out your hand to me when my personal world was rocky and I had some soul searching to do about my own mistakes. We barely knew one another but you cared and, therefore, you intuitively reached out.  Regardless of the physical distance between us, you’ve been there at my side, as my dear sister, ever since.

You, Tom and I have shared many wonderful times together.  Most of them have been come-as-you-are parties where we just showed up, talked, shared food and wine, laughed, listened, sometimes cried, and learned more than we could ever say.

How do we ever thank those who show up in kindness, courage and love? There is no greater gift on the earth than a genuine caring heart. You and Tom have both been the truest of friends to me.

My precious friend, I am eternally grateful that you showed up and shared your heart and unwavering friendship with me.

“There is a sacredness in tears.
They are not a mark of weakness, but of power.
They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues.
They are the messengers of overwhelming grief,
of deep contrition and of unspeakable love.”
~ Washington Irving

As these days of your passing unfold, the tears that we share with you seem to flow from the depths of our being. They are tears of love, of awe, of gratitude, of mystery, of cleansing, of letting go and of holding on to all that is eternal. They are tears of knowing how deeply you are loved and will always be loved.

There’s nothing for you to soothe away or rescue here now, but there’s also no holding back our tears.

Go now with love under your wings, a John Denver song in your heart (yes, I remember he is your favorite), and have the time of your life.

Beautiful Patricia made her exit from this world on January 12, 2019.
The same deep love that escorted her in, escorted her out.
I heard the waters splash as she dove deeply into her new life.
I stand here now in her wake, feeling love for us all wash over me.

I’m not going to expose some hidden code. I’m not going to tear apart chunks of text and show you what’s behind the veil. That’s a misdirection.

You can find codes in War and Peace if you want to, or in labels that list all the ingredients in the weird junk kids buy at AM-PM stores on gas-station property.

Ready?

Here it is.

The Kabbalah is about…

The Kabbalah.

That’s the secret. That’s the real impetus behind it. That’s the driving force. That’s the headwind and the tailwind and the engine and the fuel.

That’s what it was always about.

Of course, most contributors to it never realized that. They were caught in the net of the themes, the threads, the topics, the arguments, the logic, the exegesis.

Think about it. If you’re going to write thousands of pages of something, and many people are going to author it together, for centuries, you need a broad compelling subject to bring them into the act. You want that net.

So the stated theme, the net that dragged in authors, was HOW DOES MAN APPROACH GOD. That was floated, and then authors were happy and they could write reams on that subject, and they did. They were motivated. They could bring a lot to the table.

The Kabbalah is about the Kabbalah, though, because the top men who started it had a closeted idea. It was what you’d call a meta-idea. They didn’t want to bring that idea out into the light, because if they had, everyone would have frowned and gone home before the text ever got off the ground. Everyone would have said, “Aw, that’s ridiculous! How can we take off on that? It’s too stark. It’s too simple. It’s too wide. It’s too permissive.”

These top few men who started the Kabbalah, as I said, had a secret meta-idea. Not the stated theme. Their secret idea was: YOU APPROACH GOD (or Ultimate), YOU GET CLOSER THROUGH…PROLIFERATION.

Proliferation of what?

Creation.

Human creation.

Creation, in particular, of more language, more poetry, more philosophy, more knowledge, more science, more learning…but most of all, through more language, new invented poetic metaphorical suggestive language.

If they could get many authors to jump in and write about the stated (not the real) theme, they would, in fact, over time, get more proliferation of language, more poetry. Yes. You see?

And that’s what happened.

It was a rather sensational strategy:

State a theme that will bring in many authors, who will then write for centuries, developing extensions of language as they do so…these authors will focus on how to approach The Ultimate—that will be their stated subject—but ACTUALLY, they will be carrying out (unconsciously) the real mission by proliferating language and poetry…because you can’t get close to Ultimate without making language stretch into metaphor…you can’t use mechanical language to move beyond a certain point down the road…

There is another reason why this is an interesting strategy. To move humanity (if it will ever be moved) into a truly new and much wider state of consciousness, you need art. But not just a piece here or a piece there, A FLOOD.

You need a flood (a vast proliferation) of art in all directions, so that the reality we accept as solid and restrictive and final (Smart and Final) becomes the loosely woven fabric it actually IS. With gaping holes. So what then comes to the fore is the creation of many many artists acting on their own. Millions and millions and millions of artists inventing new and powerful realities.

You NEVER need reduction and narrowing and bowing and scraping before the pillars of consensus reality. That’s a hoax. You NEVER need that. You need endless proliferation.

But you see, in modern times, there is a great emphasis on precision and tight asses. That’s the case. So there is a tendency to reduce and reduce and distill and forget that the royal highway is proliferation.

To remind one’s self of the real and greater energy, you might return to Walt Whitman and Melville and Dostoevsky and Henry Miller and Goya and early Stravinsky and Lenny Bruce and so on…

Really, the force behind Kabbalah wasn’t about walking up to the door and knocking on it and shaking hands with MR. ULTIMATE, it was about the thunderous expansion of metaphor, which is poetry, which is what meaning is when meaning shrugs off its shell of sheer literal mimicry of the physical world.

RISE OF THE EMPIRE OF IMAGINATION

The invention of worlds.

Entering into realms that had previously been hidden to you. The shapes of your experience widening and deepening.

Isn’t this, in fact, what people hope to gain from the study of arcane metaphysics and cosmology and “ancient mysteries?”

Except in this case, there is no external guide that directs your consciousness down specified roads and paths defined by “the wise ones.” All that baggage is gone. Gone, too, are the pretended principles of WHAT ULTIMATELY EXISTS.

The arrival of sweeping “earth changes,” the landing of visitors from space or other dimensions, gods, holy scriptures, channeled information, sacred geometry, cosmologies erected by priests and secret societies…all the objects and entities which people tend to treat as authorities and “permission-givers” and game-changers and wisdom sources…all those things no longer carry their former weight and gravitas…

Instead of sensing that some revelation is at hand, you’re inventing your own revelations, by the truckload.

You’re not crouched inside some space hoping for the arrow of truth to arrive, you’re outside that space inventing new universes.

You’re not waiting for The Big Green Light in the Sky to confirm what you’ve been led to believe is ultimate truth…you’re free.

In other words, you’re an artist.

TIBET

There’s a local church in my neighborhood that brings in Tibetan monks once a year to do a sand painting.

For a few days, the Monks use colored sands to create a very complex mandala on a table.

Then at the Easter service, the monks destroy the mandala. They always do that. That’s their gig. They make it over the course of a few days and then they whisk it away into dust.

An array of reasons is given to the congregation, to explain why the monks get rid of the sand painting after they’ve completed it.

One, they’re “transmuting” the painting. Two, they’re using the sand to create “healing.” Three, giving people small envelopes of sand, they’re “spreading the healing/creation.” Four, they’re illustrating the ineffable or transient nature of all things.

These are all New Age reasons. Superficial jive food for a modern entrained audience.

In the ancient Tibetan tradition, the creation of art (I’m boiling it down) had a purpose: to reveal that the universe is a product of mind. Period.

The universe, then, isn’t some final sacred entity, it’s a work of art…and if it can be vividly and deeply perceived as such, the adept (artist) can then spontaneously delete pieces of physical reality and/or insert pieces of his own invented reality into universe.

To really qualify as an adept/artist who understands all this, you also have to able to destroy (as in DESTROY) what you create. Not disperse it or turn it into some healing force or blow magic dust on a crowd with it. No.

A long time ago, the Tibetans clogged up their own technique of creative work with immense amounts of ceremonial baggage and ritual and “preparation.” You couldn’t go straight into practicing their creative techniques. You had to approach it from a long way off, and you had to endure all sorts of introductory strain before you walked through the door.

Then on top of that, coming into modern times, further New Age fluff was added to the mix, resulting in a ludicrous mess.

“Hey, man, give me some of that magic dust!”

Anyway, you see, DESTROYING isn’t a word you want to use nakedly, in polite company, to describe what’s happening to those sand paintings. It’s too stark for people. It’s too real. It’s too profound.

Destroying what you create means a few things: you know you can always create more; you have that bedrock confidence; you aren’t afraid that if you destroy what you created, you’ll suddenly find yourself in a great big vacuum; you’re perfectly willing to stop creating; you aren’t residing in some whimpering spaghetti of ideas and feelings about creation and destruction; you aren’t conning yourself with all that garbage; you aren’t totally relying on what you’ve created to feed back messages to you about what you should do in your life.

And destroying what you created also means you can enter into what the Tibetans call the Void, which, when you strip it of all superfluous nonsense, really is the place where you’re not creating anything.

And then you can start creating again.

Yes, the ancient Tibetans—before they obscured their own cosmic kick-ass philosophy—the most profound of Earth-bred cosmologies—were on to something. They weren’t messing around.

They were way ahead of the baloney modern so-called gurus have been cutting and turning out.

The monk sand painters at the local church on Sunday? I have no idea whether they know and remember all this. But they are a vague reminder of that wildness.

Whether anyone knows or cares, that’s what the sand painting and destruction are about.

It doesn’t need an audience at all. The audience is supposed to be doing the painting and the destroying, too.

Voices in an office…

“We can frame the boundaries of manufactured reality. We can stage events and actual happenings. But we also have to infiltrate SUBJECTIVE PERCEPTION and fold it into the overall setup—not that we actually produce every single private thought or image or idea, but we insert seeds that bloom inside the mind, and then when they come to fruition, they appear to be OBJECTIVE EVENTS.”

“We’ll eventually have a magnificent official religion lowered without blood on the population, wireless connections that spark between brains, people will worship an unknown deity, we’ll deliver ‘booster shots’, transmitted bursts of compressed pseudodata.”

“The medical op is important…insert genes, inject deadly chemicals, weakens immune systems, spray them with cancer cells, roll synthetic lumps of disease into dark cities at 4am, calls them a cancer vaccine.”

“People line up to get born into the Earth-op-scene like countless dreamers standing at the edge of the same dream, and only some realize they can make it, can step forward, the rest just watch…you can get in if you TRY…no guarantee though…if you make it, you’re smack in the middle of the WAR SEX RELIGION MONEY movie…”

“We need layers on layers of agents and dupes and cutouts to do our work for us. Impenetrable. We teach them how to run an op. The plan, the execution, the cover story, the fake identities, the false trails, the limited hangouts.”

“We need an information machine to dispense these cover stories to the public. It’ll be called THE NEWS. It’ll seem to come from different sources, but every major story will turn out to be the same, from all the news outlets. The news machine will blanket the planet.”

“We need to keep the population in a state of confusion and doubt, an outer shell within which they believe they can find security. They’re always burrowing further IN, into smaller and smaller spaces to find safety.”

“Each individual has enormous hidden power, but we’ll keep that walled off from them…it’s our most important goal.”

“We’ll promote the idea that an individual reclaiming his own power and imagination is violating a natural law and trying to become a god against God.”

Silence.

The voices went away.

In the next office, a man whose job it was to sweep floors and mop the hallways was taking a break. He was sitting at a desk sleeping. In his dream, he heard the voices.

He woke up.

He tried to remember what he heard.

“WAR SEX RELIGION MONEY.” All interesting subjects, but it seemed the words had been spoken in a curious way, as if they were themes for an enterprise, part of a calculated plan.

A vision rose in his mind.

A movie in the world. The world in a movie. A movie springing from a single point, blossoming into four dimensions, for everyone.

Seeing this vision, he could back up from it.

He was sitting in a Void. Yet he was still in the office.

He glanced over at his mop and pail in the corner.

The mop spoke to him. It said, “This is your role. Drudgery.”

He blinked.

A word with torn edges of flame came rising up toward him, faster and faster:

NO.

The Best of the Solari Report 2018

“We know today that man, essentially, is a being of light. And the modern science of photobiology … is presently proving this. In terms of healing the implications are immense. We now know, for example, that quanta of light can initiate, or arrest, cascade-like reactions in the cells, and that genetic cellular damage can be virtually repaired, within hours, by faint beams of light. We are still on the threshold of fully understanding the complex relationship between light and life, but we can now say emphatically, that the function of our entire metabolism is dependent on light.” ~ Dr. Fritz Albert Popp, The International Institute of Biophysics

Why does the world seem so out of balance? I believe the primary reason is that so much of what is happening is kept secret – hidden behind the secret books and secret operations of banks and corporations under the umbrella of National Security. When I was in New Zealand in May, I interviewed Amy Benjamin on The Cost of Secrecy. When family and friends ask “How could this be happening and we not know?” Amy gives us exactly what we need to explain how secrecy is engineered. How can the Deep State run the government and major operations and finances outside of the law? Here’s how.

When I was in Europe last February, our videographer Robert Dupper and I took a road trip from the Netherlands to Switzerland to interview Present Age publisher Thomas Meyer on The Future of Europe. This is a wide-ranging conversation on how we build a human future. Thomas always provides an inspiring antidote to help restore and nurture our spiritual and cultural grounding.

I was in France this summer when several of us sat down to watch Ulrike Granögger’s documentary for the Solari Future Science Series, The Wave Genome – Quantum Holography of DNA. This was a paradigm shifting experience for me. How could I be so ignorant of my scientific reality? If you have not watched The Wave Genome yet, here’s your chance. This is invaluable intelligence that will open your mind and open your heart.

We are daily buffeted by a fundamental reordering of institutions and cultural wars encouraged by the establishment. Maintaining our coherence is an art form. I asked Harry Blazer who is the host of the Solari Food Series to join me for a discussion on how to live a free and inspired life and maintain coherence. One afternoon we sat in my den in Hickory Valley to record and Learning to Walkabout was the result.

Our four selections for the Best of the Solari Report 2018 give you an opportunity over the holidays to connect with four of the most inspiring people I know. Enjoy!

What is Grace?

by Robert Augustus Masters, PhD
sourced from Robert Masters newsletter
December 2018

The notion of Grace is suggestive not only of a dimension of being beyond us yet palpably right here, but also of a guidance and support profoundly attuned to our deepest needs.

In Grace there often is an implication or felt sense of sacred intervention, a not-by-us engineered doing that serves our essential well-being, often in ways that are far from expected.

A serendipitous infusion of what may quite convincingly appear to be more-than-human guidance — this is Grace, however ragged or rough its delivery may be, however unreceptive its reception may be.

Grace arrives whether or not we recognize it. And it does not cease arriving.

The very consideration of Grace conveys a sense of something unexpected and uncannily supportive — though it may not feel supportive at the time! — showing up on our doorstep, permeated with undeniable significance.

Grace is a gift — and more often than not a surprising gift — regardless of its wrapping or manner of arrival.

Somewhere in us there persists a longing for Grace, a longing to receive it and let it carry us where it may — and at the same time there may be a longing for Grace to arrive in a particular form, which of course does not necessarily happen.

Sometimes what we most need is what we assume we least need or don’t need, and Grace serves what we most need, which often means that it doesn’t seem to us to be Grace at all, but rather just a nasty or unfortunate turn of the wheel.

Grace, however, is neither good luck nor the inevitable result of our good deeds. It is much more mysterious than that, responding as it does to more than just the obviously visible and known.

It’s important to recognize that Grace takes much more into account than we can see, being unimaginably intimate with what is out of sight. Grace won’t let us down, even if in the short term it deposits us in places or situations that we don’t like.

May we let Grace guide our days; may we let Grace flow through us; may we allow Grace to come to us — such prayers are but confessions of intuiting or wanting to host the presence of something gloriously Other, something that, sooner or later, is recognized to be none other than part of what we truly are.

May we not limit Grace to how we think it should manifest. May we not decide beforehand how Grace should look or behave. May our prayers for Grace reach without grabbing, ask without begging, and ready us without leaving us on hold. May we recognize Grace for what it is, and remain grateful for it.

Grace is the arrival and expression of not-by-us (at least as we ordinarily conceive of ourselves) orchestrated direction and support, emerging without any strategy or manipulation on our part.

When Grace shows up, we are guided in directions that we very likely would have otherwise overlooked, rejected, or not seen. The gift of Grace is an astonishing thing, no matter how often we have witnessed it. It always feels fresh.

In the same sense that prayer could be said to be a divine personal, Grace could be said to be a divine intrusion.

To the extent that prayer reaches up, Grace reaches down. The gravity of the situation demands it.

Some conceive of Grace as the tangible entry of our deepest dimensions into our everyday life and consciousness, appearing in whatever form fits our prevailing frame of reference. Others conceive of Grace as the tangible entry of something far beyond us.

When it comes to Grace, it doesn’t matter if we’re religious, agnostic, or atheistic. It doesn’t matter what our status is. It doesn’t matter how high we’ve been, or how low. Grace simply persists.

When Grace shows up, we usually register it at least to some degree, whether we acknowledge this or not. We cannot engineer Grace, but we can deepen our receptivity to it, making more room for it, knowing that we don’t know when it will show up, nor in what form it will arrive.

In the same sense that Life could be said to be the Poetry of Being, and Intimacy the Poetry of Relationship, and Beauty the Poetry of Appearance, Grace could be said to be the Poetry of Opportunity.

May Grace touch you, and may you know that it is touching you. Feel it now. Don’t mind your mind’s denial of it.

Invite it in, even though it’s already here. Don’t make an idol out of it, for it is as natural to us as our breath. And rest in its Mystery, knowing you’ll never really figure it out, and don’t need to.

Richard Alan Miller has a long and extensive resume in the fields of Physics, Metaphysics and Agriculture. two of Richard Miller’s high school science projects were adopted by NASA, including one used in the Mariner 4 mission to determine the amount of water on the planet Mars.

At age 16 he built a linear accelerator and hydrogen bubble chamber for a science fair project and was the first American to demonstrate particles going faster than the speed of light.

He’s been involved in research and projects – many at top secret level – that have formed the basis of several modern-day scientific inventions.

Miller’s research in the field of paranormal began as a graduate physicist working 11 years with Navy Intel (Anesthesiology). His work includes foundational papers on A Holographic Concept of Reality and Embryonic Holography and work with microwaves and synthetic telepathy.

He was used as Timothy Leary’s experimental guinea pig to see what the effects of LSD were when taken by a Mensa level genius.

Dr. Miller was the real-life character that the X-Files’ Fox Mulder was based on – investigating unexplained phenomena for Navy Seal Corp and MRU, which put him in the path of many incredible life experiences, including an encounter with an alien and travel to an underground Antarctic Nazi base.

He conducted ESP experiments with astronaut Edgar Mitchell on the dark side of the Moon, and he developed early protocols and trained Navy Seals in ESP and Super Soldier techniques.

As an agriculturalist, he is a recognized expert in the growing and marketing of crops and herbals and has invented ingenious and effective farm machinery specific to the type of crops to be harvested and had input into production of some of the largest crop producers in the world.

His metaphysical works spring from his mother and grandmother, who were renowned psychic investigators and he himself is a high-level initiate of several traditions and lodges. His grandfather was the magician who trained Houdini.

He’s written several books and papers on Metaphysics, Magick, Herbs, Pshcology.

The list of books and papers are towering. his website is http://www.richardalanmiller.com

“Part of the inspiration for my career is the realization that you can get up in front of audiences and say how the world is and, to a small degree and for a limited time and in limited space,  it shimmers and recasts itself and becomes the thing that we say that it is.  The mind is somehow a co-creator in the process of reality through acts of language. And language is very, very mysterious. It is true magic. People run all over the place looking for paranormal abilities but notice that, when I speak, if your internal dictionary matches my internal dictionary that my thoughts cross through the air as an acoustical pressure wave and are reconstructed inside your cerebral cortex as your thought, your understanding of my words… All so-called primitive people know that the world is made of language — that you sing it into existence. That what you say it is, is what it is… ~ Terence McKenna”

What Is Magic? (part 1) – Spoken by Terence McKenna (Video)

“The syntactical nature of reality, the real secret of magic, is that the world is made of words. And if you know the words that the world is made of, you can make of it whatever you wish.”

Quotes from Terence McKenna:

“Science is the special province of the ego. And magic and art are the special province of something else. I could name it, but I won’t. It prefers to be unnamed.”

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering its a feather bed.”

November 14, 2018

John Q Jones had a nice job, a nice family, a nice house, and a nice yard. Everything was nice.

Then one day, he was walking down the street near his office and a soft explosion went off in his head.

He looked around and saw a young woman sitting in a parked car. She was reading a newspaper. And he realized he was reading her mind.

She was thinking about a vacation, a trip to Alaska, a boat ride, a book, a boyfriend. He was reading her thoughts and the sensation of doing it was exquisite, quite lucid, quite simple.

He was thrilled beyond measure. For a moment, he thought he would take off and fly.

A few hours later, he left work and went to see his psychiatrist.

“I have a problem,” he said. “Today, I read a person’s mind. And it was wonderful.”

“Hmm,” the doctor said, “I have a diagnosis for that. Paranoid schizophrenia. Possibly Bipolar.”

“Good,” Jones said. “I need a diagnosis right away, and drugs.”

“I’m the man with the drugs,” the psychiatrist said. “Let’s start you off with a sedative for sleeping and a bit of Haldol for your psychosis.”

“Sounds good,” Jones said, “but what if it doesn’t work? What if tomorrow, out of the blue, I read someone else’s mind?”

“Then come back and see me,” the psychiatrist said, “and I’ll up the dosage. Don’t worry.”

“The feeling of wonderful will go away?” Jones asked.

“Do you want it to?” the psychiatrist said.

“You bet I do. It’s the hook. I could yearn after it, and who knows what I might do then?”

“Pleasure is a tough one,” the psychiatrist said. “We pursue it, sometimes to our own detriment. I favor neutrality in all things.”

“So did I,” Jones said, “until today. Now I have a…what would you call it…a desire. And it’s scaring me.”

“Desire is the beginning of all suffering,” the psychiatrist said. “I read that somewhere.”

“The worst part,” Jones said, “is that I’m becoming aware of a different space and time.”

“Dangerous,” the psychiatrist agreed. “I’m a member of a committee formed to look into other spaces and times. We’re hoping to draft legislation that outlaws them.”

“I hope you succeed,” Jones said. “Suppose I couldn’t come back to my nice house and my nice life without feeling odd? That would be terrible. I’m a round peg in a round hole and I want to stay that way. You know, we go to church every Sunday. The Church of Statistical Average. The congregation is growing. It’s perfect for us. We love it.”

“I understand,” the psychiatrist said.

All this time, he had been reading Jones’ mind, and Jones had been reading his. They both saw a profound yearning and a profound sadness in the other.

“Perhaps I should consider a lobotomy,” Jones said.

“I wouldn’t rush into that,” the psychiatrist said.

Jones saw that the psychiatrist a) wanted a lobotomy and b) wished for the courage to go through with it.

The psychiatrist saw that Jones wanted to read minds all the time and experience the intense pleasure of leaving ordinary space and time. That was perfectly understandable. Who, having known the sensation, wouldn’t desire it again?

Jones saw that the psychiatrist longed to swim in the ocean of telepathic communication.

The psychiatrist saw that Jones wanted to become unconscious and float like a space-rock in the galaxy, with no consciousness whatsoever.

“How is your wife?” the psychiatrist said.

“Fine,” Jones said. “And your family?”

“Very well, fine,” the psychiatrist said. “Are you still sailing on weekends?”

“Now and then,” Jones said. “The weather’s been cold lately.”

“Yes, it has been.”

“Are you still playing bridge at the club?”

“Most Friday nights.”

Jones reached out and placed a thought in the consciousness of the psychiatrist: “Help me.”

Silently, the psychiatrist answered: “I need help, too.”

The walls and ceiling of the psychiatrist’s office fell away and exposed a great dark warm space.

The two men began to weep.

“We’re alone,” they thought.

Then Jones said, out loud, “Suppose everyone is like us?”

Faintly, they heard band music, and then people appeared, whispering among themselves and quietly playing instruments, or perhaps the whispering was coming from the instruments.

“I think we just died,” Jones said.

“No,” the psychiatrist said. “This is a womb filled with friends. We’re being born. They’re waiting for us to emerge.”

“Emerge into what?”

“Happiness.”

“The happiness of being ourselves?” Jones said.

“It appears so,” the psychiatrist said. “We were in a play.”

“What kind of play?”

“I don’t know,” the psychiatrist said, “but it’s closing. It had a good run, but ticket sales are declining, and the producers are resigned. They’ve given the order to strike the sets.”

“The producers?”

“They designed everything we thought we were.”

Jones laughed.

He couldn’t remember the last time he’d laughed at anything. He thought he was going to jump out of his skin. He tried to bring himself under control.

He laughed harder and that led to weeping.

He smelled fire.

“Something’s burning,” he said.

“No,” the psychiatrist said. “Some one. I’m burning. Can’t you see it?”

Jones strained at the darkness. He saw an object rising like a rocket.

“Don’t leave me,” he said.

The psychiatrist shouted over a roar, “I can’t wait anymore!”

Jones took off, too. He rose above his station, and felt the heat.

And then, suddenly, they were back in the psychiatrist’s office, sitting, facing each other.

“Your wife is still pursuing a graduate degree?” the psychiatrist was saying.

“Why yes,” Jones said. “Two evenings a week, and weekends. Her advisor tells her she’s an exceptional student.”

“I’m sure that pleases her.”

“It does, yes.”

“We’re almost out of time,” the psychiatrist said. “Anything else in our remaining moments?”

“Yes,” Jones said. “One thing. Have you ever felt you were in a commercial promoting the very thing you were doing at the moment?”

The psychiatrist smiled.

“Almost every day.”

He stood up. Jones stood up. They shook hands and Jones left the office.

On the street, as he walked back to his office, he said to himself, “I’m normal, I’m average, I’m normal, I’m average…”

His eyelids were heavy. Fatigue spread through his body. He staggered into an alley and sat down on the pavement next to a dumpster. He fell asleep.

Sometime later, his memories foggy, he was stretched out on the grass in a park near the river.

Lights were shining in his eyes. He blinked and looked up. He saw a cameraman and a woman in a pink suit holding a microphone.

“We’re doing a story on the homeless,” she said. “I’m from KGR News. How did you end up here, sir? Would you tell us?”

Jones tried to shake off his intense weariness.

He stood up, scratched at the stubble of his beard, and grabbed the microphone from the newswoman.

“Hey!” she said.

“Would you tell me,” Jones said, “how you ended up in the stage play called Your Life?”

He threw the microphone down and lumbered away across the park lawn.

He walked several miles, entered the Grand Hotel, took out his credit card, and walked up to the check-in counter.

The clerk looked at him and frowned.

“I know,” Jones said. “I’m a mess. I’m in actor in a play in town. We just closed our run and I didn’t bother changing my costume. I’d like your best room for a day. I want to clean up and get some sleep.”

The clerk gingerly took Jones’ credit card and ran it. He was surprised to find it had a hundred-thousand-dollar limit.

“Of course, sir,” he said. “I understand.”

An hour later, showered and shaved, Jones called room service and had them send up a meal.

After devouring a steak and mashed potatoes, he called his tailor and asked for a rush job on a new suit. He spoke to the hotel concierge and put in an order for underwear, socks, a shirt, and a tie from a local department store.

Four hours later, he looked in the mirror in the bathroom and saw himself as he was: businessman, husband, father, pillar of the community.

He was about to call his wife and assure her he was fine, when he glanced at the sliding glass door and saw his psychiatrist sitting out on the balcony calmly smoking a cigarette.

Jones walked over to the door, opened it, and sat down across from the doctor.

“How did you get here?” Jones said.

“Never mind that,” the psychiatrist said. “For the past few days, I’ve been tuning into high-level conversations. First, it was the mayor. Then the governor. Then the president. Then, bankers in Brussels. Finally, a small group of men in Geneva. In Geneva, they were talking about a company called Reality Manufacturing, Inc.”

“Never heard of it,” Jones said.

“You should. They said you were a key figure in it.”

He stared at Jones.

“Wait a minute,” Jones said. “That’s crazy. You’re crazy.”

“They seemed very certain.”

“I’m in a company that makes Reality?”

“Apparently so.”

“What about you?” Jones said.

“My name didn’t come up.”

“What the hell’s going on?” Jones said.

The psychiatrist shrugged. “Seems like we’ve gone through a wormhole or something.”

“A what?”

“Take it easy, Jones” the psychiatrist said. “We’ll sort this out. I have a theory. You’re the most normal man in the world. You’re the epitome of normal. That must be a clue.”

“A clue to what? That I’m going insane?”

“No. Your extreme normality is a perfect cover story. Who would suspect that you’re hiding an enormous secret? I believe mysterious forces have hijacked your subconscious and are using it to hide a…system for manufacturing reality as we know it. You’re an agent. You just don’t know it.”

Silence.

“And,” the psychiatrist continued, “I reason that if you die, reality will vanish.”

He stood up, took a step forward, and grabbed Jones by the shoulders.

“I’m going to throw you off the balcony,” the psychiatrist said, “and test my hypothesis.”

At that moment, policemen burst through the door to the hotel room and rushed out on to the balcony. They separated the two men and put them in handcuffs.

“What’s the charge, Officers?” the psychiatrist said.

“Sniffing at the edges,” a tall policeman said. “Meddling with the grid.”

“Care to explain that further?” the psychiatrist said.

“No,” the policeman said. “You’ll be taken to a facility for reprocessing. After that, you won’t need any explanations.”

Two days later, Jones was reunited with his wife at a local hospital. A doctor told Mrs. Jones that her husband had gone on a bender and blacked out in a park.

She nodded. “I always thought he was too normal. Something had to be wrong with him. I understand now. He’s been hiding his drinking from me.”

The psychiatrist was never heard from again.

On nights when his wife is out with her friends, Jones goes down to his basement and sits on an old battered couch and tries to remember. He doesn’t know what he’s looking for, but he knows it’s there, in his mind.

Occasionally, a wall disappears for a few seconds and then reconstitutes itself. He hears faint music. He senses that the people who are making the music are waiting for him. They know what he needs to know. They want him to break through.

He calls them his “other friends.” He can almost make out their faces. Faces in darkness, hovering in shadows.

One day, after work, he passes a coffee shop and sees, in the window, the woman who was in the car reading the newspaper, the woman whose thoughts he’d read, the woman who’d started the whole thing.

She glances his way and smiles.

Hearing the faint music, he walks into the shop and sits down across from her.

He says, “I wasn’t reading your thoughts. You were sending them to me.”

She nods.

“But why?” he says. “Why me?”

“Because,” she says, “you were absolutely normal. Therefore, you were so close to the edge. Just a little push and you would fall off.”

He smiles.

“Falling off,” he says, “is quite an understatement to describe what I went through.”

“Yes,” she says. “I know. Have patience. The grid is collapsing, bit by bit. Your assistance is appreciated.”

One type of mind control involves defeating logic as a method of thinking.

Modern formulations of basic logic begin with the statement: You can’t have A and not-A. Which is a way of saying contradictions are unacceptable.

So it’s no surprise that mind control attempts to introduce contradictions into rational processes.

You see this in propaganda.

For example: People who are vaccinated are in danger from those who are unvaccinated. (“Keep your unvaccinated child away from my vaccinated child.”)

There is a concealed contradiction here. You can see it by merely defining (according to conventional terms) the meaning of “vaccinated.”

It means “immune,” “protected from contracting the disease targeted by the vaccine.”

But if the vaccinated person is protected and immune, then coming into contact with an unvaccinated person will bring no danger.

Therefore, the notion that vaccinated people are A) protected but not-A) in danger is absurd, a contradiction.

The easiest way to defeat logic is through deficient education. Never teach logic. Ignore it. Instead, teach specific values. Teach anything except logic. Don’t teach children how to spot contradictions.

A deficient education plus tons of ceaseless propaganda equals mind control.

Logic is a significant problem for people who want a closed and unfree society. Teaching logic tends to produce sharp and independent minds.

Logic produces personal power.

Here is another example of non-logic: A ballot initiative passed by the voters of Maui County is illegal, because it set up a new law regarding commercial agriculture, when in fact commercial agriculture is regulated by state and federal laws, which trump county laws.

There are several ways of attacking this proposition, but the most basic way is:

The ballot initiative was not aimed at commercial agriculture. It called for a moratorium on all Monsanto/Dow experiments using non-commercial GMOs.

In what has become a federal court case, the judge and the lawyers for Dow/Monsanto are proceeding from a false basic premise.

Of course, the failure in this case is a willful ignoring of the facts. The argument is: A is B. No it isn’t. A is A.

There are a number of arguments afloat these days which proceed this way:

“The science concerning ABC is settled.”

“’Settled’ means ‘true.’”

“Therefore the science concerning ABC is true.”

However, on closer inspection, “settled” means “there is a consensus among officially favored scientists.”

Science doesn’t operate according to what officially favored scientists claim. It doesn’t operate according to consensus at all. It operates according to what is true and valid—and the best way to ascertain that is through the broadest possible analysis accomplished by a wide variety of independent researchers, who attempt to replicate prior experimental results.

Even then, there is always room for reasoned dissent.

There is much, much more I could write about logic. The issues I raise in this article are basic and should be addressed in every high school, in great detail, with many illustrations.

For instance: what are the full tacit implications of the statement found at the end of every television drug ad—“ask your doctor if X is right for you.”

For instance (at a more sophisticated level): when the press reports a new outbreak of disease, claiming it is caused by a particular virus…how was that assertion determined? On what grounds do scientists say they have found the virus that causes the disease?

I ran headlong into that one while writing my first book, AIDS Inc.: Scandal of the Century, and the further I investigated HIV as “the cause of AIDS,” the more I was stunned by the lack of logic present in the argument.

Logic is a sword.

Learning its many uses, while still young, creates formidable students and citizens.

Propaganda is the art of overwhelming logic.

It works, when the mind is unprepared.

“I love the fall of those brave enough to fail for the right reasons. Fuck the easy glory of mere excellence. The only legacy I will accept is to know that however far I got — it was as far as I was capable of going. I want to drown in my own sweat knowing there was nothing left.” ~Jared Singer & Anthony Ragle

 

Ask yourself: would you rather be considered courageous and stupid or cowardly and smart?

Sure, the ideal is courageous and smart, but that is rarely an option if you’re wanting to be courageous. Why is it rarely an option? Because doing the smart thing is usually safe and rarely courageous. Because to be considered courageous there needs to be some level of sacrifice involved. Because courage is usually predicated upon doing something where you are afraid, you are outnumbered, you are overwhelmed by the odds, or you are in some kind of danger.

Personally, I’d rather be considered courageous and stupid than be a coward sitting up in an ivory tower in my vain smartness judging through insecure hindsight bias. Because there’s a fine line between courage and stupidity, but it usually depends on the resulting social perception of the situation.

Think about it: imagine you are in a great battle defending your homeland from violent invaders. Everyone is afraid to confront the enemy, so you decide to courageously jump up and yell, “Today is a good day to die!” and you charge into the fray. If you win the day, you are considered courageous. But if you get shot right away, you are considered stupid.

In the result where you win the day you are considered a hero and people will commend you for your courage. But in the result where you got shot right out of the gate people (usually “smart” cowards) will say things like: “He should have waited for a better time,” or “What an idiot. He got shot because he didn’t wait for the order to charge,” or “There are rules of engagement and he didn’t follow them, so he got shot.”

But, here’s the thing: neither result changes the fact that what you did was a courageous act. Whether you won the day or got shot right away, you were still courageous. It is only people’s hindsight bias that changes things.

That’s the power of perceptual psychology. Especially social psychology. It can actually change the way we view history. A biased subjective opinion can change a concrete and objective fact. Scary stuff. But it happens all the time. Every single day our perceptions are being hijacked by our hindsight bias.

Here’s another example (this is a tricky one): Imagine you witness, from the beginning of the incident, a male cop unlawfully detains a pregnant woman and then violently assaults her after she challenges his authority. So, you decide to courageously defend her by first giving the cop a verbal warning to stop punching her and, second, by tackling the cop away from her after he doesn’t comply.

Can you feel the hindsight bias creeping up in your mind as you go through all the possible outcomes of this scenario? There’s almost no scenario where you are not going to jail, because of the way the justice system is set up, but going to jail doesn’t negate the fact that you were courageous. You faced down danger. The odds were stacked against you. You overcame your fear of authority. Courage; courage; courage. But was your courageous act stupid? Perhaps.

Let’s break it down. Let’s say one scenario is that the detainment of the woman ended up being lawful. Let’s say she stole a candy bar. She hid it in her purse. It turns out the cop was justified in his detainment. But, was he justified in his assault? Is there any scenario where he is justified for punching a pregnant woman even if she is slapping away his blows and resisting arrest? Let’s save that for another article…

So, you’re sitting in jail and you find out the cop was justified in his detainment. Was your courageous act more or less stupid? Careful now. That hindsight bias can really do a number on your reasoning. Think it through. How could it be more or less stupid? It was courageous regardless of stupidity or smartness. You just did the brave thing of defending a pregnant woman from being beat up for fuck’s sake!

Now, I’m sure some of you are reading this thinking, “The author is an idiot. It is always stupid to interfere in a cop’s job. No matter how wrong it seems.”

To which I say, “Tough shit! I will still choose stupid-courage over smart-cowardice if I’ve determined, through my own reasoning, intuition and moral judgment, that someone physically weaker needed help against someone physically stronger.” Bottom line. Call me, or any other courageous person, stupid if you want to. Our conscience will be clear. Whereas you will always be wondering if you did the right thing (over the smart thing) or not.

The psychology of courage and grit isn’t about stupid or smart. It’s about mettle and guts. It’s about forthrightness and honor. It’s about compassion and love. It’s about candor and nerve. It’s about doing the right thing despite cultural conditioning and hindsight bias. Smart and stupid are mostly irrelevant.

As the great Robert A. Heinlein stated, “I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do. I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.”

That’s courage.

One way of knowing that you have found your true purpose in life is that you no longer wish to be in any place other than right where you are.

How Your Higher Nature Prevails

As you come to own yourself, which is the sole purpose of this life, it becomes impossible to ever think or feel that you are owned by anything or anyone else. This is the only true strength.

It is an ironclad guarantee that this understanding, coupled with persistent self-observation, will gradually reveal to you that the false self, your lower nature, is nothing more than a shadow that can throw its voice. Its main job is to see that your troubles always appear to be everything and everywhere except what and where they really are. The only thing special about the false self is its wide range of special effects.

Do you remember The Wizard of Oz and how in their first meetings with the wizard, Dorothy and her lovable friends were so terrified? Each time the wizard spoke, his voice rolled through the grand hall like thunder! And how it appeared to the small band of friends, as they stood there shaking, that this mighty wizard had the power to hurl around spears of flame and smoke? To them, he seemed like a mighty being, maybe even a god–that is until Toto, Dorothy’s little dog, pulled back a certain curtain that exposed a strange little man standing at an elaborate control panel. Whoever this man was, he was very busy pushing buttons and pulling on levers and talking a mile a minute into a microphone. At the same instant that he would push a button or pull a lever, flames or smoke would billow through the hall. And each time he spoke in his tiny voice into the microphone, the hall would be filled with the roar of the wizard’s voice shouting out the exact same words. Suddenly it was obvious to Dorothy that the great “wizard” was in reality just a powerful projection created by the little man hiding behind the curtain.

In fact, this little man was so involved with his act that he didn’t know his hiding place had been discovered until Dorothy sternly told him to stop his performance. But even as Dorothy stood there, shocked at the cruel trick that had been played on her, she realized in the same instant that there was no more reason to be scared and troubled. The show was over! It was in her seeing that there came her freedom.

Self-observation is how we learn to become inwardly vigilant to our own thoughts and feelings, even as they pass through us. When we can observe ourselves in this new way, our higher nature naturally prevails over any troubling thoughts or feelings that want to drag us down into their lower world.

There is no greater power for self-change than self-observation because this new inner vision alone can provide you with true self-knowledge. Don’t be concerned with anything you may see. Remember, light need never fear any shadow, and anything you may discover within you that is frightening comes from the shadow world. Your only task is to bring it into the light of your new understanding, and let it handle the rest. You will be happy to learn that nothing brings the curtain down faster on the false self than this special kind of inner attention.

Gaming the Illusion

by Zen Gardner
August 26, 2018

Humanity is amazing. I’m more encouraged by the day seeing the avenues of new life and conscious perception with which our species is surfacing. It’s remarkable. In a world where things are designed to appear so hopeless and destined for one apocalyptic hell or another, be they global nuclear war or a total AI takeover, life springs eternal – all
while the mutant matrix of parasitic control continues to crumble.

The illusion persists, does it not?

We appear to be in quite the pickle. One big question that seems to come up repeatedly is do we engage this miasmic fabric called the “system” or “matrix”, or is that counter productive in and of itself?

Another question is, how many even consider the option of “opting out” of that framework as viable in some way?

One big dilemma that seems to plague our kind is, “Can we “fix” the world we’re in?” Is it even possible, never mind desirable in some sense, to repair the world system? That may appear to be escapist or esoteric of sorts, but to me that is one of the pressing issues.

It’s Time to Think This Through

It seems to be time to think again and re-evaluate so many of these pressing fundamental issues and challenges. Are we going about it right? Are we hitting the nail on the head in our so-called activism so as to do the greatest good for mankind?

This is not to minimize anyone’s sincere efforts to stand up for truth, justice and harmony in whatever form. All is energetic fulfillment is some form. But let’s step back a bit and see the big picture to perhaps give a more conscious perspective so we keep things from getting us out of whack or pulled into the futile dark vortex we’re being confronted
with.

This is a programmed paradigm we’re watching and drawn into participating within, very much like The Truman Show, only multi-dimensional. That’s why it’s called the world “stage”. The good guys and bad guys give it emotional credence and compelling drama which we freely agree to take part in, not fully realizing the underlying true nature of things.  Understandable on one level.

Realizing this may be a game of some sort does not in any way negate truly conscious or “moral” actions and reactions at any level, as it’s all part of the mix. But it does appear to be a staged drama on an endless loop in some profound way and should perhaps be treated as such and not taken so severely and seriously on a certain level.

Gaming the illusion is meant to be a fun experience, otherwise it’s all gloom, doom and designed destiny in some form, an all too prevalent conditioned perspective. That’s why “life’s a bitch and then you die” has been so widely quoted and popularized. A very sad yet understandable attitude. But the fact is, there’s so much more at our fingertips.

The Distraction of Entrapping Entrancement in Paradox City

It’s all a puzzle that enthralls in this 3D level of experience. The seeming writers, directors, film crew, stage hands, props, bit players and leading roles alike are just part of a play at a certain level. And some of the players aren’t even human just to make it more entertaining and intricately complicated. And then there’s the audience, without whom there would be no need for a play and no interactivity at all.

A strange phenomenon indeed.

That we can question our reality at this level and imagine, and even experience otherwise, proves there are other perspectives, and most likely underlying and even over-riding unseen multi-dimensional elements at play. Something to think about in itself.

As it appears to me and apparently many others, it’s a play, a game, but not in some shallow sense. For sure there’s some cosmic purpose of some sort. It’s not totally nonsensical, nor does this process ever end. I surmise it’s mainly a learning ground for experience and growth as we awaken out of the spell of this complex and very convincing level of illusion we call “reality”. We thereby grow in spiritual character, and perhaps clear past life and/or inherited baggage, and continue to evolve along with all of Creation.

So What Is Real Change?

Do we really think the play at this level is going to change in some fundamental way? Maybe we’’ll shift out of it if humanity is ready. That doesn’t seem to be historically verifiable and remains to be seen. But each of our awakenings definitely contributes to the overall reality. And that many are called to engage in active or non-active participation in
whatever form is all fine and well. There’s no condemnation or judgement in the true Universal force. We’re each living out our paths.

But having this understanding is extremely empowering and liberating on a whole other level.

We can rearrange stuff here and there as humanity has endeavored to do for millennia. We can also take it all apart and expose and describe it ad infinitum. That might help some but I’m not sure that changes anything if we’re battling with the external. Exposure won’t do that on its own, but it does contribute to the first stage of awakening to some degree. Unlocking what lies within each of us is the key.

Back to the Truman analogy, maybe we can even make it a different movie we’d rather see to some extent, but it’s still a movie. Some kind of morphing image that would thereby keep up the attachment to it but with the illusion of change. Interesting indeed.

Any way we go about it, the play will go on here. It has to, at least at this density. It seems that’s what it’s designed to do. Interesting perspective, eh?

As the late Bill Hicks aptly said, “It’s just a ride…” …one that’s brightly colored full of thrills and chills and appears very real.

But Only Until We Fix It?

I don’t know if that’s possible in this realm or dimension. We have to think at another level. This is its purpose, providing contrast, like opposing teams on a playing field or chess pieces on a checkerboard that we find so compelling and entertaining. Trying to eliminate the “evil” is like having only one team on the field, or throwing rocks at the theatre screen attempting to change the movie and eliminate the villainsembedded in the script. Or even something as  profoundly unconscious as trying to annihilate the “dark” yin from the yin-yang of creation. We might as well fix our appearance by adjusting the mirror, if I may extrapolate the nonsensical nature of it.

But let’s face it, it’s fun trying to figure all this out! I have to admit that, ha! What a trip! But that’s not to minimize the severity of our current predicament. Clearly humanity is being farmed and treated as assets, and that paradigm, whatever it’s source, will crumble as we each awaken to what’s really going on here.

The Natural World

I like to look at nature as a fractal paradigm here for our grounding and basic understanding. Besides its essential holographic nature with all of creation embedded within it, as it is with ourselves, everything is perfect just as it is. Imagine, without certain parasites we’d be awash in debris.

Without predators we’d be swimming in one dominant species. Without bacteria and internal healing and growth struggles of all sorts our bodies would sicken and decay almost instantly.

It all works in concert. All of it. Even if we don’t “understand” it.

Sure, things can get out of balance and there’s gardening to do here on occasion and some serious energetic challenges, that’s our responsibility on a very profound and meaningful level. Real common sense and loving care and stewardship always remain. But let’s not lose perspective when it comes to this weird projection called the whirled “stage” and the ignorant, reactive-laden attitudes that are attached to it.

That only belies a very low level of perception and understanding. This is why native cultures so close to nature enthrall us in their profound wisdom and simplicity.

It’s all the same game with everyone agreeing to play seemingly required parts. Engage it we all must, but let’s also remember to detach and see it for what it truly is.

It may seem counter intuitive, but this is where true understanding lies.

The Mental Retort

I can hear the minds churning and arguing with this perception. That’s because this perspective defies and negates the need for so much heavily invested time, energy and misdirected attention. That’s unfathomable to the lower belief-based energy fields of perception – it’s an understanding that defies an entire realm of wrongly empowered inter-reactivity. But that will escape those within that framework.

That lower lower level operational system predominantly includes humanity’s massive uncontrolled ego, individual and collective. That’s the separated, mutant spin off from root creation, the cancerous false ego issue which is at the center of our problems referred to as “the fall” or the operational system of the “mind they gave us” and all the cling- ons it attracts, amongst other explanations. I might be losing uninformed people here but hang in there.

That oft mislabeled and misunderstood “ego” is like the mind – it’s its partner in the non-self area where we’ve been conditioned from birth. Certain aspects of this ego concept are necessary and part of our functioning apparatus. But it’s either our master or our servant, our healthy interactive “friend” or the enemy within – blinding us from the true underlying reality and what empowers interconnectivity. This other fake outgrowth of what we can call the false ego is the great separator, the very thing we came here to overcome as we get back to our Source-self recognition and remembrance of who we are.

My point is, until we return to the true experiential basics on a personal and hopefully a collective basis, it’s gonna be wash, rinse repeat here as it has been for eons. Individually and collectively. We only “see through a glass darkly” here, but we do get experiential as well as intuitive insights into the “other side” and are clearly waking up to these profound truths exponentially now.

We might as well enjoy it here, but we mustn’t fool ourselves. Blaming the external is akin to abject blindness and a very serious case of mistaken identity. It’s similar to letting external “acceptance” and the opinions of others guide our lives and happiness – victimhood, false judgment, projecting blame and a host of other things, when the real issues are inside ourselves, not “out there”. The applications of this principle are myriad. That’s a fast and powerful extrapolation but a good one.

A Global Awakening? Or Are Each of Us the Whole Deal

Awakening appears to be first and foremost an individual thing. I suspect when we truly wake up, clean up and grow up, on a person to person basis, we perhaps move on from this merry-go-round to try some new adventure if we choose. Unless we decide to come back and try to help awaken a few more and likely a host of other reasons.

Who knows? Curious indeed. So many possibilities, all worth considering.

Can there be a global awakening? Maybe. But it’s not going to be done “for” anyone, but by each individual and the rest will follow. That’s ultimately not our primary concern really, worrying about the overall. No movement of any new form of collective affirmation or compliance will magically do it. Otherwise it’ll be back to square one, and just another followership rhythmically following some new meme towards a reset on the great mandala.

A sad thought perhaps, but who am I to say? We’re each on our own path and have no idea what’s really going on, except for small glimpses.

So What To Do?

This approach to life as we know it may appear to require so much seeming sacrifice of what has been familiar to us that it may sound like a lot of work and personal responsibility. This includes a hell of a lot of changes and letting go of our coveted stuff, ideas, beliefs and beloved self image. Letting it all go never goes over well and we could die or get killed for trying something so full spectrum contrarian. The price appears to be way too high on this programmed playing field. Ironic once again as we’re going to lose all of this anyway eventually. Besides the fact that final “exclamation point” can come at any time.

So why not try letting it all go now? Nothing else is working, nor ever has.

What’s really to lose in the grand scheme of things? Letting go may lead to gaining everything, more than we’ve hoped or dreamed. Amazing things certainly seem to work that way. We’ve all experienced that in our lives one time or another. So why not try it voluntarily rather than having to have it all yanked out from under us, or us from it, as will eventually happen? Which doesn’t appear to be very far off.

It Just Takes One

The rarified beauty within all of this is that if even one of us can truly awaken and power up it proves anyone can. And each one that does so exponentially affects the opportunity for others to break out of the spell, and energetically moves this orb of illusion into increments of more potentiality for those within it. That I find to be extremely inspiring and empowering.

This is all quite paradoxical so don’t expect it to make linear sense. If it’s all “under control” why do anything? Well, there’s a lot of reasons. Never forget – if those embodied sages and “radicals” who dared to speak truth in previous lifetimes in this dimension hadn’t demonstrated and shared their awakening wisdom through the ages, I suspect strongly it might have been much more difficult for those of us here and now on this amazing path to awaken from scratch.

We stand on the shoulders of the true giants who dared to reach for full on Truth manifested in Love. And as compassion has it, they felt compelled to share what they had learned. Let’s pay it forward for all of Creation. And notice of the great sages, they never said to fight the system, though they didn’t condemn such actions. They consistently said to elevate our level of conscious awareness and get back to Source as the number one priority, seeing past the illusion and attachments whereupon the basic cause for suffering is relieved.

We Can’t Get it Wrong

No path is wrong. No matter what we do we can’t “get it wrong”. That’s the beauty of it. Each soul path is unique and learning and experiencing what it does. There’s no judgement or right or wrong in this respect. It may appear that way from the lower dimensional perspective, but that is operating from a place of ignorance in the grand scheme of things. We have the capacity for so much more.

Love just is. And It’s All. Let’s get there and live It the best we can, whatever the seeming cost or obstacles. That’s how to play this game, with fearless abandon. Screw the confines, naysayers and wanna be controllers. They’re simply game board pieces set to bring about contrast, energetic opposition, and experiences. Nothing more. Just doing their job.

Seems like a wonderful set up to me. Opportunities abound as we game the illusion! Let’s take the leap! It’s exactly like fears – when we face them they disappear like the phantoms that they are.

Face it all and transcend the game! While gaming it! Confusing enough? Welcome to planet earth as embodied spiritual beings.

We are one. Yet individual.

Onward.

Love, Zen

Jay Weidner talked about the entities known as archons, as well as his research into the mysteries, and mythic back stories of Mount Shasta (featured in his latest movie “Shasta”). Archons were described in the ancient Nag Hammadi texts as parasitic off-world beings who came to Earth and invaded the minds of certain humans, and over the years, many of these invaded humans have risen to positions of power throughout society, Weidner stated. The Archons try to create situations with as much bloodshed, agony, and chaos as possible, as they feed off human fear, he explained. “The Gnostics would tell us this was not going on before the Archon invasion of about 3,500 to 6,000 years ago…and this is the cause of all of our strife,” he added.

The Push Me, Pull You Socio-Psychological Taffy Machine

by Zen Gardner
June 28, 2018

This is fundamental in many ways but the solution may surprise most. Nothing is as it appears. Nothing. The answers lie in the observer and within each of our grasps. But it requires some serious personal work and true honest evaluation of many profound things. Mainly ourselves, at levels many may have not yet begun to fully perceive.

The ultimate challenge and final frontier….

What is the truth? What do we base what we call truth on? When it comes to information we tend to trust what we consider “reliable sources”. And just where do they get their information? Do we know for sure?

In this day of the information glut resources are more and more spurious, never mind the infiltration of agendized psyops and A.I. disinformation bots at every level. So where do we turn? What’s the message that we need to take away from this current milieu of information pollution?

First we have to clearly identify the problem. Once we admit we’re confused and often chasing our own tails, or someone else’s, we start to gain some detachment and discernment. Admittedly it’s not easy but it’s part of the growth process. Social engineering is an easily documented reality, begun in earnest by a cabal of so-called academics and sociology think tanks as far back at the 1700’s and proliferated and heavily expanded upon in the last century. It’s there for anyone to read about in mainstream documents.

The idea that arrogant elites of the system have taken upon themselves the role of channeling everything from our education system to our media to promulgate a distinct agenda towards a certain pre-set goal for humanity isn’t easy for most to digest. It implies the whole idea of a concerted “conspiracy” in some form, a term deftly demonized as a catch all for anything contrary to their social programs. Once this deliberately engineered idea hurdle is overcome, things start to crystalize.

The Taffy Convolution Machine

Confusion, distraction and division are essential tools for those imposing their mentally confining, clearly directing paradigm. In their minds this is a necessary evolution that needs their hands-on participation and enforcement. Even the slightest degree of investigation into the government takeover of education, for example, from childhood to universities, reveals a very clear intention. The same can be said of the evolution of science, politics, the impetus behind wars and aggression in the name of “defense”, the continually consolidating corporate takeover, the engineered breakdown of the family and the clearly planned immigration and multicultural agendas…and on it goes.

Once we are willing to begin to connect the dots it becomes quite obvious that there is an overriding direction to which humanity is being deftly herded.
.
Today all of this has taken on a new and exponentially expanding dimension. Besides the obviously controlled mainstream media, the so-called alternative community is known to be heavily infiltrated, from anger instigation to plain distraction to new age incapacitation. This doesn’t mean there aren’t true sources of empowering truth and awareness. The point here is that everything has been led into this giant convoluted machine similar to the above taffy maker.

If this resonates to how you feel now about investigating and understanding what’s really going on, don’t be surprised or taken back by it. This is how it works. It’s the nature of the beast. Keep everyone confused and busy while they get on with their overall agenda. It’s not new, every hierarchical civilization or major institution such as religion has used this for eons. It’s just that today it is much more sophisticated and because of the electronic connectivity much faster, immediate and deftly effective.

So What Can We Do?

Number one is again identify what is going on. Many are rightfully looking for spiritual answers that surpass this seemingly insane dimension of experience. Within the taffy maker there is no end of loops and repeat conditioning which has become increasingly enticing due to its complicated algorithms, at many levels. It’s a system designed to have no escape as it sets its own ever changing rules and parameters. Eastern thought has a simple explanation or categorization for the whole ball of taffy – it’s maya, or illusion – as compared to true underlying reality.

Their advice is to just tune it out. Escape in some fashion, in other words. From there we’ll have a real perspective which profoundly includes non-participation.

This is why getting off the hamster wheel or merry go round is paramount in order to truly be clear enough to begin to grasp this strange experience. This has always been the case, but today’s challenge has become so convoluted it appears to many there is no avenue of escape, never mind solution. This is resulting in people lashing out in many ways including on minute social issues in an effort to fight their way out of this imposed paper bag over our heads.

This is engineered, believe it or not, but the evidence is overwhelming for those willing to look.

It all points to our individual personal condition. Our reactions, no matter the external impulse, are the real issue. We were groomed, in trauma-based matrix conditioning, to be reactive. That and concentrating on personal survival and acceptance. A perfect set up. Rather than look within ourselves for the limitless resources innate to us, and having our imagination cultivated and encouraged, we are conditioned to look for external help, from government to religion to unhealthy co-dependent relationships. Never mind massive distractions such as sports and celebrity and the like.

The Answer Lies Within – Each of Us

It can seem bleak, but it isn’t. This is a golden opportunity no matter how challenging. Many wonderful therapies are available for self reconciliation and discovery. Without this essential work it will only be wash, rinse repeat if we only deal with the external or the superficial.This subject is up for personal discovery whether some technique is needed or not.

In order to change the world we have to change ourselves first and foremost. Otherwise we will only create or affirm just a new socially and spiritually constrictive world based on previous ignorance or entrainment. This whole idea and approach is totally contrary to our engrained way of thinking. As the above quotation clearly states, we will only rebuild the old in new clothes. True change comes from within, approaching and addressing our most sacred territory – ourselves. The elevation that takes place is not just informational, but vibrational and in essence dimensional.

This is the realm we long for. In a sense it doesn’t really matter what happens to our perception of the outside world. But when we change individually, everything changes. And each individual change, at this profound level, changes the overall, much like the morphic field or even the profound dynamics as described by quantum physics.

This directly applies to activism as well, no matter how impassioned and sincere, and those working for change within this oppressive system at whatever level. We cannot play their game at their level. But all of this requires personal elevation to new levels of awareness.

Something to think about. This implies a lot of personal shifting and change. Some will take it up, most won’t.

I’ll leave the challenge with you. And me.

Personally, I’m working on it, and it’s profoundly liberating and empowering.

Much love,

Zen

One thing about “worshiping” another being, the worshiper excuses and absolves himself from taking an active role in knowing the truth (that we are expressions of Source), and when the truth is known, then making it part of your day-to-day experience.

This includes the simple advice to treat others the way you would be treated, “loving your neighbor as yourself”.

No one can “love” another if they are of a mind that they need a “savior”. They can’t even accept, respect, or love who they are. Yet true love, freedom, truth and knowledge begins there… within. ~ Adam Abraham

We’re living in very challenging times. Our metal is being tested to new and extreme degrees that increase by the day. It’s clearly a time for expanded wisdom, discretion and discernment to fully understand what is happening around and within us.

As well as determination.

In a time of revelation, which is what the apocalypse is referring to, things come to light that can rock our world. False idols fall, concepts are cracked, and new understandings and awakenings abound, whether we like them or not. These are each up to the individual to find out and experience for themselves, but they can be very disconcerting when it comes to the shattering of old paradigms of thinking and our current personal outlook on the world, no matter how seemingly progressive we think we are.

The Fall of False Images and Mass Projections

There are many symptoms of radical change that we can expect. Idolatry, or putting unquestioned faith and misguided “belief” in some human or system, or even supernatural solution-bringer, is completely off course.

As long as humanity looks for a leader they will be sorely disappointed. History attests to this in spades. Projecting our problems, questions and needs for exterior solutions is destined to fail. Worse yet as it affirms this mass hysteria. Anyone or anything that pretends to fill this vacuum you can be assured are deceived to whatever degree, unfortunately with the strong reinforcement of a sycophantic populace programmed to look for such.

Start by not putting people in that position of temptation. It’s ultimately up to us, similar to not participating in the matrix.

The more perceptive understanding of this has to do with those who accept this predominant role of “solution bringer”. Once someone agrees to play this part of the projected play being broadcast you have problems, and it usually comes up because of not just the throngs projecting the wrong intent, but that those agreeing to fulfill such a role have grown an inflated ego, together with a plethora of attachments, capable of collecting this group intention, consciously or otherwise.

In the words of Lao Tzu:

“A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves.”

Again, history attests to this. People look for a leader, a panacea, a catch all solution, someone else to do the real work and have all the conviction they’re lacking, and when it appears to be embodied in a particularly charismatic figure who is then emboldened and willing to play this role, we have serious problems.

Every time. Truth by its very nature is a continually acting catalytic iconoclast.

Truthful ideas lead us to more truth and empowerment. Granted, some people can encapsulate and articulate these ideas better than others, but it’s nonetheless the ideas, not the people. When the intention and attention is hypnotically focused on the usually dynamic individual, those accepting such a role are immediately programmed to self destruct.

As truth has it, when something gets in the way of white hot truth it burns up. It may take time but it won’t stand the test.

It’s never clear in the time of transition but always clarifies over time. It’s up to us to be circumspect and wise in our observations and resultant behaviors.

Plato said something very profound in this regard:

“When the tyrant has disposed of foreign enemies by conquest or treaty and there is nothing to fear from them, then he is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader.” – Plato

 

Inside and Outside Attacks

A big part of this revelation we’re in the midst of has to do with knowing not just the truth but the enemies of truth. These contrarian “signal jammers” can be clearly belligerent external foes of freedom, creativity and the like which are relatively easy to spot individuals or socially engineered trends, but there are also inside or internal spiritual attacks on ourselves or others in our midst that can be difficult to identify as well as deal with.

This awareness of spiritual attacks must become an important aspect of our awareness. Whether people call these influences transdimensionals, demons, archons, wetiko or whatever, they are real, and very active and present in this human conflict.

People will be, and already are, seeing personality changes in others around them who are not moving or working with the truth vibrations, if you will. If you haven’t yet experienced this element you soon will, but it usually takes some grounded awareness and spotting ability to see them for what they are, and that awareness can only manifest when there is the ability to see what you are.

Some coming into our midst are people who are clearly outside plants and shills, but I would venture to say that the most present danger is the spiritual element which invariably uses the weakest link available as their doorway in any situation.

These negative, parasitic forces go where there is an opening. A particularly weak individual, someone with a grudge or contrary agenda for whatever reason, or simply a misguided soul laden with pride who is easily influenced and in some cases taken over.

These influences are not just demonically persuasive and extremely intelligent and can win almost any argument on their level if you engage them, but very aggressive.

This is where the fuller overarching paradigm of how to effect change is most blatantly manifest – learning to circumnavigate and ultimately rise above this level of interchange is a proverbial stitch in time and will avoid untold confusion and wasted energy.

This might sound a bit woo woo and out there for some geopolitical pragmatists, but if you’re reading this I’m sure you’ll identify some of these symptoms. Obviously psychopaths are fully charged with these elements, but it’s when it reaches you personally that we can be taken aback and inadvertently steered into futile encounters or courses of action.

The spiritual cannot be ignored. In fact, it is first and foremost amongst factors that need to be under consideration at any and every given time during this transitional process.

Take It from There

This may seem a bit vague to some but you will come to see it manifest in many ways. Much more needs to be explained about these inside and outside attacks but I wanted to touch on the concepts to get the ball rolling.

Idols will fall. Despite any temporary confusion good folks will survive and thrive as they empower. Paradigms will continue to crumble and morph. It’s a spectacular convergence and a time to learn.

Go with the flow but be aware, very aware, of the influences we are being bombarded with. This is a very serious transition we’re in the midst of and we need to remain vigilant and detached in our perspective.

There is no in between when it comes to joining the forces for truth.

Just a heads up.

Stay on top of it, not under.

Much love always,

Zen

Bruce Lipton and Jason Liosatos Speak Outside The Box

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOxvx3FWtiE

My great talk with Bruce Lipton, Cellular Biologist and advocate for truth, peace and harmony.

We discuss this exciting time for humanity, and that each one of us is a great and powerful part of the change we wish to see, and that by changing the environment around our societies we change everything, like the cells in and around a body…

We talk about creating new, healthy, harmonious systems, and the great revolution of consciousness, as we re member we are all the midwives of a great new world which is possible if we re member and re empower ourselves enough to manifest it…

We also discuss depression, disharmony and stress being a natural symptom from a healthy body and mind in a system which is exhausting it, and driving it mad…

Seeing Through the Masquerade of Illusion

by Zen Gardner
December 3, 2017

The idea of illusion is often bandied about somewhat flippantly in this day and age but it’s something well worth exploring in terms of our human condition of conscious, as well as not so conscious, awareness.

There are very many levels of so-called illusion. There are the manufactured ones regarding hierarchy, manipulated economics, social and media control and the like, that affect us socially as well as energetically. And then there are those embedded illusions in age old psycho/bio/genetic and spiritual programming that appear to be fundamental to our apparent physical existence, from whatever sources they’re derived.

Most of all it’s the self generated illusions we conjure up for whatever reasons. Not hard to do in a world full of other self-generated illusions to justify our own, big and small.

Never mind who’s to “blame” regarding any of this, we’re saddled with what we have and what “is”. Let’s start there. Not an easy ride here in these respects but apparently we’re up to it.

All of that is in direct as well as indirect contraposition to who we really are. The more complicated the illusion the more time we spend trying to figure it out, and thereby unwittingly remain in it. One of life’s many fundamental conundrums.

So what is it in us that seems to be so fascinated by these complex illusions? Are we in fact keeping them functional and energized by our participation, as well as our own false sense of self, and is it true that they really have no life of their own?

An interesting and potentially extremely powerful concept. If true, that would mean our personal disengagement with these mechanisms would free us at least individually, despite the fact that others may perpetrate the overall hoax by their participation. However, what if a critical mass of human participants withdrew their energizing of this projection? Something many of us think about, having the good of all dear to our hearts.

The big question remains: how many would dare to make this leap, especially considering it clearly requires a certain death to the cloaked false self and its convincing story and its many attachments?

Illusion, the Matrix, and the Tech Advance

Those various versions, dimensions or levels of these clearly false realities seem to intersect, but they don’t really meet anywhere. They don’t have organically organized substance or natural relationships – as in directly derived from Source. They’re a manipulated, mutant outgrowth. There is a profound difference on many levels.

They all just are, whatever has manifested for us to deal with. They don’t necessarily have any “reasonable” relationship, they just mess with each other – all converging in our mixed up, unclear perception – which is where they virtually exist due to our engagement with them. The “real thing” within us that is observing all of this lives independent of all of these influences – which is where our “higher self” operates from, if you want to call it that. Consciousness is as clean a term and concept I think we can use which is why I’ve stayed with it so far.

It’s distinctly observational. That sacred eternal space “we” inhabit – our true being inherently connected with everything that exists, is distinctly separate from these many superficial layers of manifestation yet is aware of them all.

We are observing these things, more or less, while having our interaction with whatever wave, thought or energetic forms that seem to appear around and within us. This is independent of whether tech is involved. But tech has really stepped up the game in recent years, on purpose of its own energetic right to manifest, making it appear more tangible and real than ever. Ironically all while it is nothing of the sort, except again via our participation. Our inherent power is magnificently independent of these things, but this has been ignored, deliberately covered up, and forgotten.

Many of us are remembering now, as if awaking from a dream. Slowly this reality is coming into focus. It’s time to trust our intuition and never mind the old markers. The shift has happened and is continuing to unfold. Flow with it however it is manifesting in our lives is my understanding.

Belief Systems Determine Our Reality

This experience is constantly evolving and will continue to for eternity. There’s no set goal or endgame, it just is and is ever creating and expanding, with energies attracting resonant energies and repelling opposites. It’s just as we see galaxies and solar systems form and then dissipate in the macro. Darkness has its role, as does light, similar to magnetic polarity. One can’t exist without the other and they work synergistically.

Without this contrast on the 3-D level we wouldn’t learn or grow. It’s a dance, a test of sorts, a learning platform, and a game – all at once apparently.

Our tendency is to try and nail down issues – seeming truths and systems that seem stable in this ever-changing and evolving existence. Rather than let go into the fact that life is basically constant change, we seek control in order to eliminate uncomfortable variables that come our way. Settled science is a good example in the mental framework, while religions are a huge manifestation on the social and philosophical level. But really our lives are our religions, our way of life, the reflection of what it is we’ve come to believe or subscribe to. Religions and belief systems are like popsicle sticks we hope will hold the goo together.

It really doesn’t need anything to hold anything, as there isn’t anything to hold together.

That may sound scary to some but nature makes that obvious. There is form and apparent structure to it, just as we have spines and skeletons and all the amazing attachments, but ultimately everything is amazing forms of cooperative energy, with the expansive Universe hanging out there in space just fine to illustrate the point. All life, organic, inorganic and other realms as well, is replete with amazing forms of living energy. We can break it down to electromagnetic energy, wave forms and plasma, and even deeper concepts such as ether and prana or the Tao etc., including other dimensional aspects, but again it’s running itself just fine. There is no control except what we might call the Divine Isness, the free form generating Source, something we’ll never understand nor be able to label or define.

In my view we have to accept that we’ll never know or fully understand in that sense and we have to let that go. Not an easy task in this dualistic, mind-dominated dimension where mind compels us along some linear accomplishment-oriented track like a relentless conveyor belt.

That’s why these god forms have such power over people’s minds. It’s that hunger for holding on to something, to worship or blame, some external structure, when all we need to do is let go. We’re already there – we each are It. Pretty counter intuitive to everything this world system tells us and the multi-level reinforcement of it, but that’s closer to what our reality truly is than this constant trying to understand, hold on to, control and fix paradigm.

I know, this is a lotta work to just realize we need to live in the Now. Quite humorous actually. But again, acceptance and a deep form of surrender is apparently the key.

It’s similar to knowing we are not our bodies, nor our minds. This amorphous other self is beyond all of that. Just hearing yourself think tells you that, or observing yourself observing, or being aware when you’re more aware. It’s in plain sight, but we don’t know how to translate that knowing into our 3-D existence. It really doesn’t need to be worked on or even perceived fully, it just is already. That’s why truly detached observation is so liberating. At that point there’s an inherent acceptance of what is – not trying to understand, control or break free of anything.

Translated into our personal lives, until we fully and truly honestly accept ourselves and our personal as well as interactive condition as it is, we can’t move on. When we do the seeming barriers just melt away.

The Solution is Simple – Take One Step At A Time

Unplug from the matrix at every level and it’s non-existent in our lives. Simple, but not always easy. It’s our very own energy that keeps illusions pumping and morphing according to whatever latest illusion we’re willing to empower through “belief”. Believe comes from the Greek word pistevo – to “drink in”. Belief is simply entertaining extraneous ideas as if true and thus empowering them. Fear works the same way, when there really is absolutely nothing to fear. A very powerful illusion.

It’s quite profound if you think about it and shows from whence our problems derive.

It’s all the same when it comes to illusions of any sort, no matter how “real” they may appear. Tech is simply another manifested modulation web, designed and brought into being by its participants essentially, not just the initiating forces, whatever or whomever they may be. Many attempts have been made for humanity’s full spectrum dominance, and many efforts have failed. That’s what people forget. This one clearly has legs, at least right now in this span of illusory time, but not without a lot of promotion and of course more importantly eager participation. If you stand back and look at it consciously, it can’t fully succeed in the light of the enormity of creation, no matter its pervasiveness in some small realm of manifestation.

Look at what appears to possibly be devastation on other planets in our solar system. They could very well be similar attempts, all of which ended in self-destruction. So be it, the Universe is doing just fine, and those who participated in all of that, like our previous civilizations, are the wiser for it, seeing we are eternal beings. The learning and growth goes on, we just don’t fully see the other dimensions of existence involved.

Not all of us. Some do, to various degrees. Intuitively I think we all know there’s much more than meets the eye.

The magnificent irony is that just one being getting through their crude mesh blows the whole plan. The tech manifestation is really a gift, an illustration of what the sages have said about maya, or the illusion of the 3-D world, for millennia. It’s a crude illustration and learning tool, if we can see it. The Matrix movie alluded to this – that we each are the ONE.

The fake matrix is like another fully illusory, self-purported law of fake, control-seeking lower dimensional “physics”, but with its own exception. In fact many of them. Because it’s clearly fake and so many have broken free from it. In other words, it’s not a law of any sort, contrary to its assumptive assertions. It’s thereby inherently and immediately debunked. It’s blown from the get-go for anyone paying attention.

A perfect illustration of illusion.

Distractions, Secondary Sources, and the Deeper Purpose of Illusions

There are so many explanations for everything. It’s up to each of us to wend our way through this energetic maze as begets our purpose and growth. That’s our personal reality, like fractal mini-theaters within ever bigger illusory projection theaters, such as shallow society and all its spin-offs. Never go by anyone else’s interpretation, including anything said here. There may be something to glean that resonates but each of our experiences is wholly our own. No one else’s, no collective to lean on, yet at the same time we synergistically influence each other.

This is all the deeper purpose as I see it – like plants on a forest floor simply growing through life, despite all the microbiological “explanations” – really just descriptions in order to feel in control. People speak authoritatively about what’s going on, on many, many levels, and it’s getting more complex, detailed and “out there” by the day. We have to be careful about what we’re buying into, yet at the same time there is wonderful pioneering being done that much can be learned from.

A maze of influences. All of which lead us eventually to heart knowing. The reality is, there’s nothing out there that we don’t already know at some level within us.

While we should go by our personal experience we often don’t. We’re often shopping for answers that fit some previous belief system or hunger for comfort and a sense of security. Again, illusion induced thinking.

It’s tricky stuff, but that metastasizing ball of wax is the bait apparently. Maybe it’s the apple our race allegorically bit into? The fact that we’re aware of all this blows that one to bits too.

Do We Really Want to Real-Eyes?

It’s always way more obvious than we’d like to think or believe. Perhaps the realization of how duped we’ve been is causing an egoic reaction that shuts that down. All of that is fear based. There really is nothing to fear – that’s the impulse that needs to be clearly identified at every level, as well as anger at the seeming injustice of it all and that deep sense of abandonment we all face. All fully recognized and accepted for what they are, and which will subsequently be let go of. But not until we embrace it honestly. Not as good or right, but seeing it for what it is, honestly, without contest or reactivity or even a desire to let it go. Unconditionally.

Again, counter-intuitive, yet attachment free.

A carrot is a carrot. That might sound cryptic but it really isn’t. True reality, as it is said, is as plain as the nose on our face.

Enjoy the ride, that’s our first priority. When we’re in an excited and joyous mode and following our individual passions things are much, much clearer. It’s meant to be that way for much simpler and easier, as well as happier navigation.

As the saying goes, life is not a problem to be solved, but an experience to be enjoyed.

Clarity follows.

Love, Zen

Writers who write fiction have nothing to say about their work in the pages of magazines that publish their stories.  Those stories appear, and that’s it.  But since I own and operate this blog, I can make remarks about my piece here.

One reason (not the only one) I write fiction now and then: I want to stimulate the imaginations of my readers.  I want them to think about implications.  I want them to climb out of their customary ideas and do some imagining in wider spheres.  I want them to feel liberated.  I want them to like fiction.  I want them to consider the possibility that fiction does something for them that journalism can’t.  I want them to come up against absurdities.  I want them to realize that fact after fact after fact has limits.  I want them to take a trip with me.  I want them to realize that if I can imagine, so can they.  I want them to laugh once in a while.  I want them to feel that the creative impulse of writers has some value.  I want them to put aside, for a few minutes, the notion that B must follow A and C must follow B.  I want them to suspend their disbelief in “other worlds.”  I want them to appreciate sheer made-up invention.  I want them to want to travel outside the reality machine.  And see what’s there.

Okay, here we go.  This is a story about a man who comes up with a smart and disturbing idea and then thinks better of it.  On a smaller scale, this happens every day, in large organizations where the combined efforts of workers produce horror shows for the population at large.

—If you can write about lush tomato farms in Death Valley and make people believe you, you could have a future at the Agency.  That’s what they told me on my first day at work.

Of course, I was already a published writer, but so what?  To the slag minds at the office, I was just another guy.  A drone.  A slug.

But I wrote a paper called THE TOMATO IN THE MIND, and it was passed around at the Agency, and caused quite a stir.  It posited the idea that a fake holographic UFO invasion of Earth could reduce the slack of wandering minds and focus the population on a single goal: defense of the home planet.

We would “attack” the aliens and put them down before they landed.  What a victory!  But we would need to remain on alert because more evil ones might be coming.

Part two of the operation would involve connecting every brain on the planet to the Cloud.  Why?  To make us smarter and give birth to new ideas about the protection of Earth.

Every citizen would send his ideas back to the Cloud, where they would be processed by Facebook and evaluated.  All hands on deck.

A super-special algorithm called the Kissinger would integrate these solutions and emerge with an international plan to save Earth.  Democracy at work.

As for mind control, the Cloud would embed the image of a ripe red TOMATO in every human brain.  A symbol of hope and life.  A symbol of cooperation.  A symbol of joy.  A symbol of eternal vigilance and war.

Why a tomato?  Why not?  In and of itself, a symbol has no meaning or force.  But infusing it with sensations, half-formed thoughts, images, and emotions brings about a powerful, what shall I call it, collective allegiance.

And then, when people sense they share this symbol, you have the glue that really binds them together.  They don’t know where the symbol came from, they don’t fully see it, but they glimpse enough of it to believe it’s a basic reality—no questions asked.  At the center of consciousness, IT’S THERE.  It always has been, and finally people are becoming aware of it.  This is labeled “a higher stage of evolution.”

The tomato.

People are always looking for a basis, a foundation, a thing which cannot be exceeded, a stopping place, a bottom line, a truth that cannot be argued.  It must be accepted.

The tomato is THAT.  It also reinforces the notion that all the people of Earth must come together and protect themselves and the environment from the outer-space invasion.

Intense cooperation is the key.  Cast aide all differences.  Offload “eccentric ideas.”  The tomato says: there is a plan and we must adhere to it.

Rejoice in our ascension to Oneness.

A three-man team of Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Bill Gates is put in charge of deploying the best technicians of the day to assemble the tomato and impart to it all the shadings of meaning and sensation.  It must be all-embracing.  It must satisfy many levels of human desire.  It must be compelling to the highest degree possible.

As a sub-operation, those alert outliers, who perceive the embedded symbol, will want to criticize what they think the tomato “actually is.” They must be dealt with.  The plan is to set them against each other, so they’ll argue and snipe without let-up.  Agents will be planted in their midst, and these agents will present the most absurd versions of the symbol: it’s actually radioactive dust from Mars infiltrating the cerebral cortex; it’s a remnant of a thought-form from early Egyptian Freemasons; it’s the image of a Babylonian witch; it’s Jesus from the planet Venus; it’s a white nationalist microwave broadcast from a Nazi bunker hidden below ground in New Orleans; it’s a transmission from a HAARP device captured by Antifa during their raid on a Wal-Mart in St. Louis; it’s the text of a secret demonic Amendment to the Constitution ratified in 1811 and deleted from all historical records.

The question arises: how will major media and governments present the tomato?  And the answer is: they won’t.  They’ll remain silent.  They might even deny the tomato exists.  Let it appear that this is an organically spreading awareness.  Let people “discover it” for themselves.  In the process, a “belonging” occurs.  People come to believe they’re part of something larger and much more powerful than themselves:  the symbol.  That’s what they want to believe, isn’t it?  Well, here it is.

Some people will call the tomato an apple.  Some will call it a pear.  Some will call it an image of Earth.  Some will call it love.  Some will call it collective consciousness.  Let them.  Let them express their fragmented and partial awareness of the tomato.  It doesn’t matter.  What matters is they react to its presence in their minds.

Soon after my paper circulated at the Agency, I was summoned to the Director’s office.  He informed me I would be detached from my position and given a cover legend as a member of the US president’s National Security team.  Within the Oval Office, I would work to prepare for the holographic invasion.

The Director said, “We believe the people of this world are now stupid enough to buy an interstellar-invasion scenario.  We’ll feed you data and reports you can, in turn, present to the President.  You’ll meet with Generals and war planners at the Pentagon.  They’ll come on board.  For them, any excuse for war is a good excuse.  The big trick, though, is to convince them that our military response will be VIRTUAL.  Do you see?  We won’t really launch missiles and laser weapons.  You tell them we’ll fool the aliens from outer space into thinking they’re being attacked.  This won’t be an easy sell on your part.  But we’ll prepared a series of profiles of the aliens.  These reports will show they have a unique vulnerability to virtual attacks, because they’re robots.  They respond to the virtual in the same way they respond to the real.  It’s automatic…”

I came out of that meeting thinking the Director was quite insane.  And perhaps, desperate.  But what could I do?  I was now all the way in.

Under my new cover, in my meetings at the Pentagon, I made my case, step by step, over the course of a year.  I was surprised at how easily the war planners accepted the layout.  Their only concern was the money the federal government would spread around to defense contractors.  As long as these corporations could step up their production of new weapons systems, and rake in more billions—even if the weapons would never be used—all would be well.

Obviously, certain people at the Pentagon were receiving enormous kickbacks from the defense contractors, and my plan would increase that secret cash flow.

I never mentioned the tomato.

Why would I?

This updated tomato version of the Agency’s MKULTRA program, as well as the technology for the virtual holographic attack from outer space, and our virtual response to it—all of it was being tasked out of a dark project in several hidden locations in the Western US.  That side of the operation was none of my business.

I was the founder of the tomato.

I was the genius at the heart of the program.

I was awarded several medals at private ceremonies.

I was the golden-haired boy.

I basked in the attention.  The Agency funneled me cash from one of their slush funds, and I bought a house in the hills of Virginia.  I had servants and armed security at my disposal.

Best of all, I would never have the tomato in my own mind.  I would be free from it.  I would be one of the few who would escape its influence.

So now you know what you need to know about the recent alien invasion from outer space and our glorious victory.

For exposing all this, of course…these days I’m being branded as one of the lunatic outliers with a half-cocked conspiracy theory.  The White House, the Pentagon, and the Agency deny I ever worked for them.  People accuse me of being unpatriotic because I’ve demeaned the war effort.

There is even a group which claims I myself am a hologram.

My house has been taken away from me.  I now live in a small apartment in a small town in the middle of nowhere.  I’ve undergone extensive plastic surgery.

If some day, somewhere, you see a man walking down the street or buying groceries in a market, a man whose face oddly and vaguely suggests a tomato, that might be me.

It’s my personal reminder that I once participated in the greatest hoax in the history of Earth.

—Yet, as I write that sentence, I wonder if the virtual space invasion was but a minor episode in a tradition which included much larger deceptions.  Who knows?

For example, is a tomato in the mind more serious than the Vatican?  Just a thought.

The Enlightened and the Entangled

by Zen Gardner
April 8, 2017

It’s either/or, and it takes some serious commitment and doing, as well as not doing, to truly get free. Most of us have no idea of what real freedom is, as we tend to listen to our minds predominantly rather than our hearts when it comes to understanding. Besides being a very limited means of perception, our minds are severely corrupted since birth by the engineered world we’re born into. 

Molded by programmed parents and teachers and a societal milieu invented by psychopathic forces and their agents for the sole purpose of control, it’s a fight from day one to fight off these influences and dig our way back to our true selves. 

Upon arrival on this planet and its limited and constricting dimensions, our first response is survival, how to get along and maybe even excel in the maze we walked into. We invent personalities and very complex support mechanisms to prop up our inventions to keep up with the myriad of other invented stories we continually encounter. They call that adjusting. Incredible.

“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” – Jiddhu Krishnamurti   

It’s All About the Will and Courage to Search and Find

Something within each of us longs for something much greater. We sense it’s there but can’t put our finger on it. The illusory construct we’re born into is fully entangled in its own story, reinforcing itself like a cancer against the realization of deeper truths. The true humans amongst us all experience this innate contradiction, yet we’re told this is just the way it is. 

This is where the heart drive comes in. Enlightenment has been made out to be some ethereal, far away unattainable state reserved only for the duly revered and hence separated from our personal potential. A complete fabrication. 

This experience here is like a very low level, barely intelligence-challenging juvenile video game. The answers are obvious. As Occam’s razor states so beautifully and succinctly, the simplest answer is usually the right one. That’s why children are so profound in their understanding, and many of the great teachers have said we need to become like little children again. When we reject the love of the truth we’re given over to delusion, and a very convoluted set of life sapping variables. 

We then learn to accept or reject whatever we choose to according to what fits our perverted sense of self-serving understanding. After all, the world around us does it, why shouldn’t I?

Meanwhile your inner soul and connection to true innate understanding weeps. 

“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” ~ Carl Jung

Just Look at the Challenge

Not only are we programmed from birth and thrown into a swamp of twisted lies, the bombardment continues with soul and mind twisting education and societal “norms” backed by insane degrees of media propaganda – which again seems to be happily assimilated into this twisted, dumbed down normalcy bias. 

What could be more challenging?

Is there a purpose to it, for each of us individually? Having been twisted to incredible torques of trauma in my personal life I can only assume so. Something survives that can still see the beauty around us and all that is implied behind it. The more I find out how swindled we’ve been, from the obvious to controlled opposition and plants to divert whole well intentioned movements, the more that resonates with my heart in complete contradiction to what I’ve been presented with. Hence the more I know the more I don’t know. A healthy attitude I’ve come to learn. 

But at the same time the more arises a warrior spirit within me. Spirit rising. Herein lies the spark of life.

I’m all too aware of coping mechanisms and the like, so don’t even bother going there if you’re that jaded. Somehow truth surfaces. It may be paltry in the world we’re witnessing in this dark age we’re living in, with all its glitz and tech and glamour. Humanity has been shrouded in immense darkness, cut off from what was once obvious to our child like spirits.

The Moral?

It’s up to you. How committed are you to truth, really? I know my settings. Do you know yours? Are you truly connected to them? Does fear of death still affect you? A good barometer.

We are up against many common obstacles. Illusory and mentally induced ones in most cases, but nonetheless appearing real. Like the famous expression, FEAR is False Evidence Appearing Real. Pretty profound. But do we implement these realizations, or file them away as comforting cover ups.

The battle we’re in is very real. It’s first of all personal. We can’t change the external without having that real metanoia, about face, in our own lives first. That’s not a popular subject in a world that wants its ears tickled with the latest media punch or on the alternative side conspiracy theory world wanting more and more “information”, whatever truths they contain. It’s still stroking the same egoic body that sucks up to this matrix of deceit. 

It may take you a while to make that connection to the concept of and resultant disconnection with false self, but it’s essential. At least learn to be conscious of such a schism and then observe it. It’s truly liberating. 

All the best. I’ll keep wondering. Can’t help it. Hope you do too.

I’m Awake – Now What Do I Do?

by Zen Gardner
April 24, 2013

Many people ask about this or something similar so here’s some thoughts on the subject. I don’t mean to tell anyone what to do, as that’s completely contrary to consciousness and conscious development, but I will share my understandings at this point and my passion for Truth and you can do what you like with it.

Question:

“What do you say to people who have woken up but can’t leave the system because of family and friends?”

This and those like it pose a very broad question since we’re all different and need to be led of our own convictions. However, the answer is fundamentally similar in every case.

Do what consciousness tells you.

There’s really no time for fiddling around once you’ve found what you know to be the Truth, which is always something clearly outside the realm of what you’ve been indoctrinated with. It’s always life altering. And if it isn’t, you didn’t hear correctly or it fell on deaf or distorted ears in some fashion.

I don’t want to be counted amongst the deaf or unresponsive. Do you?

Especially when you found out that that’s exactly what perpetrates the big lie you found out about–a compliant, non-awake populace.

System Dependence is the Name of the Game

That’s the trouble with the “system”, it teaches dependency, hierarchy, and rote, taught knowledge, where your choices are carefully narrowed down to “acceptable” alternatives within carefully confined parameters.

That’s why people feel like fish out of water when they wake up. They never learned how to truly think freely, nor did they have the knowledge tools. Instead, most everything was reversed, scrambled, confused and filed away in seeming useless obscurity while their particular “Truman Show” marched on.

The result is not just a marginalization of empowering Truths into the catch-all dustbins of “conspiracy theory” or wing nut stuff, but worse yet, the system does not cultivate original thought or true personal freedom or responsibility.

That wake up in itself is enough to send anyone on a quest for Truth.

The real Truth is not an option in such a controlled environment. Oh, you get smatterings of truths, but drawing awake and aware conclusions is not an option to humanity’s would be Controllers. And do know,  they work hard at blocking any such understandings never mind conclusions.

The Wake Up Starts with a Bang – But You Have to Keep It Going

When someone awakens to the true nature of the manipulated world we live in, as well as the vast resources for Truth at our immediate conscious fingertips, it takes some doing to fully realize what that information means, as well as the vast implications on your personal life.

It can hit hard and may need some time to be digested. It can also be quite disturbing at first, but that will pass.

How it affects each of us individually is really a question of simply putting what we’ve learned into action and trusting the Universe for the consequences. I don’t think there’s time for much else. In fact, there never has been.

If you know the Truth, what are you waiting for?

While many are hoping for some kind of soft-pedaling of any kind of action call, it’s not a set formula. You just find out, and you react..consciously. And just that takes some doing, breaking off the rust of your True Self to animate and start to call the shots that were previously hindered by life long programming.

Stages of Development

For me the full wake up took on many stages of development, but the full blown realization of the vast extent of the manipulated lie and its fleshed out intricacies was a head splitting explosion that blew me past the pull of convention’s gravity so fast I’m still grinning from ear to ear as I zip through the universe!

The point there being, the wake up takes on many forms and evolves. What gives the wake up traction is commitment, putting feet to your realizations and keeping on in spite of opposition.

You think TV’s bad? Turn it off. Banks are a rip off? Get out except for perhaps necessary operating funds if need be. Trapped by the ownership of housing, “might needs”, and all kinds of dumb stuff?

Dump everything you can, if that’s your understanding.

Knowing “stuff owns you” is fundamental to consciousness. We all get there, but it depends on our enthusiasm…or “spirit in us”.

How many respond to just that?

Do What You Know or Face Confusion

Until people put into action what they already know, there isn’t going to be much more to follow for them. Just a lot of flailing about in frustration because we don’t do what we already know we should do and are looking for excuses or compromised solutions to assuage our guilty conscience and hopefully preserve our personal status quo.

Sad, but true.

That also includes getting right with people, making relationships honest,  and disengaging from situations of compromise. It takes courage.

Know You Are Nobody–Yet Everybody

All this is a whole lot easier when you realize you are nobody. There’s nothing to defend.

Your old senses of self were the very strings the lying matrix played upon. Get conscious and the sirens of the system don’t affect you except peripherally.

That’s a biggie.

Conscious awareness is number one realizing and seeing through the higher level of awareness that is detached from this life’s experiences, and thus free us to discern and identify without attachment what your life experience is.

Seeing through those eyes will bring tremendous peace and understanding.

Get Along But Don’t Compromise

Don’t fret the next steps. If the universe is so vast and full of infinite possibilities there’s going to be something for everybody. Our job is to find it and when we find it, act on it. No, it’s not the “safe” way, or the “accepted” way.

At all. We do what we have to do and thus break free.

In reality the parasitic system has been sucking you dry and lying to you and everyone you love. You now no longer owe it any allegiance and can and should disengage any and every way you can. No guilt trip necessary. You are doing what is right.

Period.

And that is not contingent on relationships, financial security, self image concerns, or what have you.

So get any and all attachments possible out of play. Happily. You are freeing yourself from the spider’s tentacles.

There’s Real Peace in Commitment.

When you’ve resolved to go ahead and “make the break” with convention and stand up for what you know is right, it leads to a new lifestyle. How do you think these wonderful websites were formed of like-minded people who found each other and decided to make an impact with videos, interviews, articles, participation in events, etc?

How were Gandhi, Martin Luther King or other world Truth bearers including the present day alternative luminaries birthed from their previous lives?

Something gelled, made total sense, resonated, and they just committed. These Truth enthusiasts on the internet also somehow found each other and it clicked. It’s all about responding to the need and call and openly networking…true response-ability.

The Truth Glasses

I read this fantastic analogy and it’s never escaped me.

Finding out the whole truth is like putting on these amazing Truth glasses, much like the movie “They Live”.

Here’s how they work:

#1. You gotta want to put them on.

#2. You can’t force someone else to put them on.

#3. Once they’re on, you can’t take them off.

If you’ve found and put on the glasses, that will make total sense. If you haven’t, keep searching.

Let your heart lead you.

In the words of Lao Tsu:

At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want. – Lao Tsu

It’s Time to Banish Hope and Belief

by Zen Gardner
February 18, 2014

Here’s a good exercise that will help alter your conscious awareness and put punch and clarity where slosh once existed. Don’t even use the words “hope” or “believe”. Every time you’re tempted to say, write or even think these debilitating, nebulous concepts, replace “I hope” or “I believe” with “I think” or “it appears to me” or something else realistic that clearly indicates what you really mean.

These types of inhibitors are a subtle trick of the programmed language we’ve been handed.

We don’t need full evidence to make conjectures or intuitive surmisings. Just call them what they are. Hope is one of the most misleading and disempowering terms we’ve ever been handed, as is belief. Drop them entirely. We tend to know what people seem to mean when using these terms, but they’re still just as intellectually and spiritually crippling.

Catch Yourself

When you catch yourself using these terms you’ll be surprised at how often they appear and how much this exercise strengthens your perception and awareness. These misleading terms run around humanity like viruses just waiting to infect the unwary. Just as we wash our hands regularly when going out in public, we need to do the same with our minds and the use of their dirty language.

It’s a bit like fear porn and falling for the darkside of viewing the world around us. Sure we need to be aware of the sickness pervading society and the machinations of the would-be Controllers, but these language tricks are all potential traps to sap our energy and powers of true intention and conscious awareness, the very tools we so desperately need to rise above this ongoing fray with the forces around us.

Free Your Mind – Meet the Trivium

The above segues nicely into something I’ve wanted to bring up for some time. Many are familiar with this rational approach to learning and discovering as it’s quite remarkably lucid and helps one stand back and clearly assess the information before us and regain our intellectual and even spiritual sovereignty.

Unfortunately and as expected, this method of learning has been lost or adulterated in today’s world as evidenced by the confusion and blind ignorance that are so rampant in society.

The ideas of “hope” and “belief” are deeply intertwined in religious thought and hence all of society. They are perfect examples of false, misleading concepts that learning techniques such as the Trivium can quickly dispel for upcoming generations. This subject deserves serious study but I’ll include some introductory information here to help give the feel of what this is about and hopefully stir your interest in this fascinating and liberating conscious learning technology.

In medieval universities the Trivium combined with the Quadrivium comprised the seven liberal arts. This teaching method is based on a curriculum outlined by Plato. One of the key intentions behind applying the Trivium and the Quadrivium is to distinguish between reality and fiction. By training the mind how to think – instead of what to think – this method provides a teaching of the arts and the science of the mind as well as the art of the science of matter.

Tools of Knowing

The Trivium and the Quadrivium are often presented in a Pythagorean triangle which represents the human way of knowing :

Any observation enters our mind through the 5 senses. Then we use our mind and apply the Trivium and the Quadrivium in order to process the observation. This process consists of several steps which enable us to understand how the observation relates to what we already know, how we can explain this new piece of information to others and how we can store it in a methodical way.

The Trivium method of thought

The Trivium is the first half of the 7 Liberal Arts. It consists of 3 elements : General grammar, formal logic and classical rhetoric. Sacred texts often refer to these 3 elements as knowledge, understanding and wisdom. The overarching topic of the Trivium is communication and language.

Within the process of seeing, conceptualizing and speaking it is important to be aware that the created concept about how we think reality is, does not equate reality as it really is.

In other words, the map is not the territory.

Aristotle who is considered to be one of the originators of the ideas behind the Trivium stated that an educated man should be capable of considering and investigating any idea or concept thoroughly without necessarily embracing or dismissing it. If during any discussion it becomes obvious that the other person is emotionally involved regarding a particular subject matter, then it is impossible to have a rational discussion based on the Trivium with them. Any emotional attachment to a particular belief blocks any kind of rational or logical argumentation. [Emphasis mine].(more>)

[*Note the direct reference to those emotionally attached to a belief and how it blocks rational discourse.]

Sounds Too Rational?

We’re dealing with the rational mind, which works in conjunction with our imaginative/creative mind. These work in concert. Above all is keeping a conscious awareness above both processes, but each has its place, just as we inhabit a physical body that works in conjunction with Spirit.

Here’s an excellent interview that explains the subject in more detail for those so inclined:

Love is Free – Everything Else Has a Price

by Zen Gardner
March 2014

If you think about it, that is a profound truth. It is also an easy filtration system for truth in a world where discernment is both difficult and rare.

Try this simple formula. Examine your life simply for compromising economic enslavements, or even social relationships. What is the relative cost? Is it more parasitic than helpful? Are they obligatory relationships built on old, controlled patterns of thinking or behaving? It’s tough to realize what we’re in the midst of in a world so entrenched in these programmed mechanisms swirling about us.

Unconditional love, as ethereal-cereal as that may sound to some, asks nothing in return. Yet ironically, an exchange at some level always naturally occurs anyway.

That’s truth economics.

Are You Ensnared Outside of Love? Disengage

Who hasn’t been caught in the web? It’s a continual fight for anyone on this besieged planet. All of us have to deal with this sticky maze to some extent, and have been doing so all of our lives. It’s not always fun – it’s become a way of life, and survival. Discerning this changing world around us is our perpetual challenge, especially when our intent to change the flow and our reactions to this bombardment start to bring us to some serious revelations that contradict the narrative we’ve been sold.

It eventually becomes clear that the point of our realizations lead us to disengage. The whole system we’ve been sold is a lie, top to bottom.

Where did we go wrong? We fell for the cost system. Everything costs, so fight to gain more and the guy with the most toys wins. When this type of selfishness kicks in conscious awareness is lost. There is no more altruistic giving or helping those in need in their diseased paradigm, it’s back to a gain/cost game.

That might be a short summary of our condition, but the fact remains it’s time to wake up.

The key is not being in their game at all.

The Price of Love

It’s ironic how relationship love comes to mind for most when this subject of love comes up. That’s social programming playing on our instincts once again. Whereas, unselfish behavior is nothing new. It has been the natural response of cultures since time immemorial, caring for one another and extending that outwards. We just don’t see it today with corporatist totalitarian regimes clamping down on society as they are, and the reflexive responses of those trying to survive within their constricted climates of fear and insecurity.

This kind of fascist control has been the hallmark of every dynasty throughout our blighted history.

The point is, true love is free. There are no strings attached to true love. It gives without expecting in return. We all have it. It’s simply a matter of releasing and utilizing it.

And ironically it all comes back in spades.

The Difference

The key is recognizing what we’re up against, and responding accordingly. True love will always remain unconditional. The difference is in living up to this awareness. It’s not just simply to be observed, quantified and filed away. Loving interaction at work changes the entire dynamic of society, more radically than any other influence. We give and love because we care.

And Universe responds accordingly.

Blinding us from this wonderful truth is the reason for the harshness conditioning–war, hate, greed and most of all fear. These shut down our channels of connection to love. But only if we listen to them. When we learn to operate outside their matrix of deceit our powers blossom.

This is where we need to operate from, the standpoint of consciously aware love.

That may seem a bit esoteric for some, but it couldn’t be any more practical.

Stay in love.

Given the volume of emails I’m receiving I’ve chosen to address my decision to support Zen publicly.

Yes. I’m aware of the articles discrediting Zen. I choose to see those deeply disturbing articles that strip a human down for his past and not his present choices as far less valuable to humanity than the content of the articles I’ve published from Zen.

Of course if you can provide me with proof that he is still a member of “The Family” and is actively engaged in pedophilia – an act he clearly states he has never committed – then my continued posting of his material is both unacceptable and wrong.  But without proof of current reprehensible acts I choose to perceive the light Zen has helped spread with his deeply thoughtful and uplifting articles as more valuable to humanity than the dark 3D matrix agenda that wants him silenced, scorned, shamed and discredited.

As far as I can tell part of Zen’s life challenges and personal growth consisted of joining a cult. Cult brain-washing and indoctrination turned him into a very slow Truth Perceiver/Awakened Being. By his own admission it took him 27 years to grow spiritually strong enough to see the truth and break away.

He’s castigated for being a leader of the cult and turning a blind eye to pedophilia and other cult crimes.  Are those cult activities worthy and wholesome? Of course not.  But guess what? He found the strength and courage to break free and he has used his life since then in constructive, uplifting pursuits.

It seems to me the Christ had some instructive advice concerning our penchant for condemnation.

“And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 4They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? 6This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. 7So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. 8And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 9And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? 11She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.”

I shall be running re-posts of my favorite Zen articles for the foreseeable future.  I do this so that you can judge for yourself Zen’s character as expressed through his content. Judge THAT if you must judge something.

These are times when one must choose for oneself how to react to information. These are times to use great discernment.

For only the second time since I have had this blog the comments section will be closed. Consider my decision an act of self preservation from the ugly, ugly energies that simply want to tear down and destroy, maul and make tawdry all that was once perceived as very good.

And guess what?  It still is.

Thank you.

Truth or Denial in the Age of Information Overload

by Zen Gardner
January 18, 2013

A lot of people are getting more frustrated than ever with either trying to wake people up, or just witnessing the apparent absolute ignorance of people not being able to notice what’s really going on around them. There are many reasons for this, and it’s an age old problem.

In today’s world, it appears it’s because things are crystallizing so fast and the flow of changing information coming at people is so massive it can barely be processed anymore by the lower density mind. True to some extent.

You’ll soon see that doesn’t hold up when it comes to consciousness.

But as a result of this onslaught people just shut down. In spite of so much Truth being more readily available than in any other time in history people still choose to close their eyes and ears. This info-barrage is no excuse for anything, but it’s part of the reality of the effects of this swirl of accelerating craziness that’s spinning around us.

And that’s just what’s on the mental, informational surface. Vibrationally and spiritually things are even crazier as the Matrix and its inter-dimensional minions furiously fight against the natural progression of change and advancing energetic waves of Truth our world is experiencing.

All this may not appear to be an improvement to many following this recent galactic alignment and change of ages, but despite the chaos getting loosed on the world we are definitely moving towards a much greater conscious state of awareness and energetic power. It’s getting free enough to see and experience all this that’s the major issue at hand.

Don’t let the confusion and chaos fool you. Keep your ship steady as she goes. It’s all a transition, but man the helm diligently. This is the real deal and it’s about to get very personal if it hasn’t already.

Testing Times Are Times of Choice

It’s a very challenging dynamic we’re all facing at this juncture.  And I expect it to get even wilder and more confusing by the day, especially to the unwary. And this increased fury of change is causing basically two reactions. We either open up to new and more fulfilling options for our lives, or we duck and cover and adopt the state sponsored party line for seeming safety and security.

It appears to be that simple.

The preponderance of the population is apparently shutting down and hiding from this seeming informational onslaught. They are actually happy the state propaganda machine pablumizes everything into a nice, warm, sugary goo. After all, it’s easier, and easier is better, right? Like eating cheap toxic processed fast food instead of real, living food. “We’ll worry about that healthy stuff later. You can’t expect me to eat consciously and study what’s in stuff all the time. Surely it can’t be that bad if the FDA has approved these foods and additives. And the media might not be perfect but they’d never outright lie to us…” blah blah.

Little do they know. But intentional ignorance is of course no excuse either. Even the slightest bit of critical thought could open the floodgates to the Truth but the subconscious awareness that there’s way more behind the wizard’s curtain than they care to know about keeps them squeezing their eyes shut.

Look at Sandy Hook-winked. If people knew the depths the Powers That Be sink to put on such elaborate murderous schemes and the many strange goals accomplished during these high profile rituals it would make their heads spin. So what does the media controlled world do? Nothing. Not even admit one iota of contrary evidence, be it others arrested on the scene or any contradictory stories that don’t toe the party line.

And on top of that they demonize anyone who not just proposes opposing information, but dares to question the lack of evidence to support anything that happened as the public was told! Anyone smell 9/11 here? Not a bad comparison really, an emotionally charged and fact-bereft media story that has just the right desired effects.

Always ask, Cui Bono? Who benefits? Apply that across the board.

But the time to pay the fiddler is nigh. Personally and collectively.

Even the Back Burner Is Boiling Over

There’s one thing people aren’t counting on. In this energetically enlivened time everything gets activated. Even the pots put on the back burners are boiling over and there’s no ignoring these suppressed issues any longer. You can’t stop the energetic changes any more than you can keep the waves of Truth like waves of the ocean from hitting the shore.

And despite all this jacked up confusion, people subconsciously realize to wake up and challenge any one of these major issues might mean having to see and therefore react to other issues or questions. It might mean changing their whole understanding of life which would take them to new, uncomfortable places.

For those trying to put off these uncomfortable realizations, it’s gonna get a heck of a lot more uncomfortable as well as confusing for those who don’t get honest about what’s before them and rise to the challenge, believe me.

We’re either part of the problem, or part of the solution. Plain and simple.

All or Nothing at All – Beware the Vortex

It’s really becoming all or nothing at all when it comes to the fundamentals of Truth vs. the Lie in people’s lives. Those that shut down and close their eyes and ears to the Truth are forced into the only other option: the one touted by the mainstream media/religion/intellectual mantra and enforced by the matrix. And its end is death..spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically.

The vortex of this false world is way too strong for anyone to be anywhere near the big lie with little compromises to not get sucked into the whole morass of deceit. We’ll all be shedding more and more cherished baggage as the storm picks up.

Let go gleefully. It’s helping you get free.

Commit to Detachment

It’s very simple knowing what to do. Arm yourself with Truth and Love and detach from the Lie any and every way you can. Any compromise is going to cost more than it ever did before. As the wind picks up even the smallest bit of debris becomes increasingly hazardous. Same with attachments. The smallest thing can bring us down if we’re off guard and playing too near to the snare of the matrix.

Think about that.

The battle before us is overcoming the fog machine that brings on excuses, indifference, apathy and confusion, all very “reasonable” causes for inaction and keeping wrong attachments. That we’re being absolutely hammered with false informational overload is a given. The wonderful part of the equation is the good informational field that’s intensifying at the same time.

Stay alive, alert and detached. The only way to process this burst of false information is to step back, see yourself as consciousness having an experience called “you”, and then process it and act or not act accordingly.

Such is the way. A great default that always works for conscious warriors.

Transformation, X-Ray Eyes and the Lifting of the Veil

by Zen Gardner
August 1, 2016

These are very exciting times as well as extremely challenging ones. Changes continue to accelerate on personal as well as external fronts, and will continue to do so.  This veil lifting meme has come on strong. It’s in our collective consciousness. It’s the awakening morphing as we said it would and will continue to do.

On the external front, the BREXIT issue is very indicative of the growing effects of recent events, even if it’s engineered to try and bring on a new globalist plan. The point is people are getting a sense of empowerment and involvement. When these openings arise they lead to more awakenings of the spirit as related issues come to light.

I see and feel it here in Spain, as there are a lot of Brits here and they’re talking about it quite a bit and recalculating many things as a result, as are all other nationalities here in Europe. It affects trade, freedom of movement and places of residence the most immediately.

People are already on the defensive with the monetary manipulations and the underlying issue of disappearing national cultures with the migration agenda in full swing, so the cumulative effect of these issues is precipitating new viewpoints and understandings about what’s going on.

Populations are also being battered about by these escalating false flags and ginned up fear with the resulting militarization of their otherwise peaceful nations. They’re seeing through all this more and more. That’s pretty powerful. It’s all backfiring as they get more and more desperate to gain control, and people aren’t buying into it nearly as much.

The Break Though Is Under Way – And It’s Very Personal

The truth is bubbling through this lifting veil and changing the playing field in more ways than we can even clearly identify. It’s a shift – ultimately in consciousness that is affecting the entire planet and everything and everyone in and on it.

The most profound manifestations are what’s happening in people’s personal lives. I’ve been going through a major shift the past 10 months with very personal ramifications coming at me full speed and from all sides. The thing is, I’m hearing this from every quarter. My own children, close friends, readers and commenters on the site, people I’m meeting, and just perusing the consciousness oriented web sites.

The shift is hitting the fan. And it’s all for good.

It’s really remarkable how lives are being impacted. And it’s clearly what’s most important – that we make the personal changes that are being required of us to prepare us for what’s ahead, as well as in fulfilling our essential roles as sovereign awakened souls and awake and responsible inhabitants of this glorious planet.

X-Ray Eyes – Just Wait To See What You’re Gonna See!

What’s thrilling about these changes is what is being revealed to us. Not only in our general outlook as that will continually keep morphing, but our self perception and how we view those about us that closely influence our lives.

You’ll see yourself, first of all, warts and all as the layers peel off. But it’s revealing your real shining self. It’s all good. I get into this in other articles but you know what I’m talking about. Transformation is a painful but necessary process.

Don’t fight it. In fact, pursue it.

The wild stuff I’ve been experiencing the past several months and which continues to step up is seeing not only myself, but other people differently. Especially the ones I thought I “knew”. Things get revealed to you. Brace yourself, a lot of it comes as a shocker or sideways revelation, but trust what your heart is telling you. And respond accordingly as you’re led.

It’s an ongoing adjustment process but quite a thrilling experience. It’ll make you draw close to some and distance yourself from others as your newly revealed self comes to the surface.

The Bombastic Bullshit Factor

There’s a lot of complete bullshit getting thrown around, and pointless, distracting and time and energy wasting drama. It’ll be cloaked in anything from morphed new age type spiritual rigamarole, a very toxic infection going around, to shallow amusements with no lasting value that also drain the spirit and distract from deeper relationships grounded in reality.

You’ll also see other people you don’t know differently. It’s sort of like having x-ray eyes that are waking up and activating. It gives you a lot more compassion to realize what people are trapped in, as well as an increasing disdain for destructive behavior and deliberate ignorance.

Events and news morph too. You’ll be able to more easily resist areas of information that you once tolerated and even sought after. Go with it. As we detoxify it gets easier and easier and we naturally spend more time on connecting with nature and relaxing as well as working on spiritual grounding, essential to our health and survival, especially now in these increasingly turbulent times, both socially and spiritually.

Hyperdimensional Stuff

This can’t be emphasized enough. Without awareness of this aspect we’re sitting ducks. Almost if not all of our problems are influenced by hyperdimensional energies and entities. We’re under attack now more than ever and as the veil lifts, but we’re going to be able to identify these pestering spirit influences at work.

That’s why grounding work in order to stay firmly planted in reality is so very important.

But it’s all for our good and growth, so react consciously. Again, the Wetiko information is very empowering in this regard. We need to understand what is going on in this important hyperdimensional aspect and there’s a lot of great information regarding this available.

But nothing takes the place of vigilance. If we’re “on call” we’re much more likely to nip things in the bud before we get entangled and things really become complicated and confusing. That’s why I wrote about social contracts and co-dependence recently, because these can be activated before we know it. It’s bad enough the ones we’re aware of and already disengaging from, but why bring on more problems for ourselves if we can avoid them?

Can I Help?

Co-dependency often manifests in trying to help others in the wrong way and with the wrong motives driving us. Maybe we’re drawing others to ourselves, or working out old issues with wanting to feel needed. It could be a lot of things.

This phrase “can I help?” has become a joke with my closest friends. We talk about all these things I’m writing about here a lot which really helps heighten awareness of it. But if you can laugh when you catch yourself doing it it’s a real good sign! Issues like this are a manifestation of previous trauma and tragedy in our lives and may not seem so funny at times, but we can get past it.

We just need to see it for what it is.

That takes some “homework” but it’s an essential part of our growth. Wrong, binding social contracts are another extension of co-dependency. It’s that thing that reaches out and attaches in completely unhealthy ways. It reminds me of the quote:

“Thoughts are not the problem… It’s the thing that goes out and grabs them and makes them ‘yours’ that’s the problem.” – Jack O’Keeffe

Watch Your Thoughts – and Everything Else

That quote above is like anything in us that seeks attachment. And let me tell you, hyperdimensionals LOVE attachment! Besides what basic attachments to to bind up personally, attachment is how these entities and influences work and even travel from person to person. So watch out where you hang out, who you’re with and what you think. Do regular energetic cleansing.  All this may seem a tall order but it’s the nature of the beast right now.

Actually it always has been.

“Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom” is a lot deeper than we thought. But it’s not that complicated. It will take some tough decisions to let go of compromised situations. The answer is usually clear and easy but the execution can be tough. Some things take more time to unravel and disconnect from than others. But we all can do it.

Unveil Yourself

I’m dwelling on these personal aspects because self-healing is the most profound manifestation of this lifting of the veil. And once we’re whole we’re way more effective in helping to change the vibrational level of our environment. That’s the most effective thing any of us can do.

It’s also where these other forces and issues can’t touch us, and that awakening process continues to self replicate and raise in not just frequency, but power and speed. Besides, it’s the unknown territory we all crave to find and explore and dwell in.

And it’s at all of our fingertips.

Now that’s empowering. We’re in the midst of a planetary shift that’s being energetically charged, and as we respond and resonate it works synergistically to compound this wonderful change exponentially.

Keep on. It’s an individual fight, but we each help each other massively by overcoming.

Meet you in the unknown! It’s the place to be!

Social Contracts, Co-Dependency and Closed Loops of Limitation

by Zen Gardner
July 18, 2016

There are so many readily available ways to not be our authentic selves.

They come easy, or so we think, since they’re so rampant in our shallow societal system. But the price is seriously self imposed, crippling limitation.

Social engineering is a massive subject. That humanity has been dumbed down is a huge understatement. We’ve been severely handicapped in ways we can hardly discern, hence their disastrous grip and closed self reinforcing loops have such sway.

By design we cannot see what is truly going on.

To transcend any and all of these systems is imperative. This is why the true spiritual masters throughout time have said that transcending mind is fundamental to true discovery and personal empowerment.

 The mind plays tricks – seriously distracting ones. The mind breeds such a cloud of all knowing self importance we tend to bend to its every whim.

Beware the mind-field.

Stay conscious and observe…

Distraction Mechanisms – Social Contracts

Man, these are a bitch.

What agreeance we make with others in order to be “friends” or tolerate each other. Heavy duty stuff, and not easy to own up to. Again the root to everything is the willingness to let go of anything and everything we’re attached to.

A very big deal in every way and one we need to be consciously aware of.

We all do it all the time in order to “get along”. It dissipates as we become our authentic selves. That’s the good news. But disentangling from contracts can be a real tough ride, and not an easy thing to handle with grace.

But it has to be done…

Co-Dependency, The Inner Child, and Shadow Work

All of us are subject to triggers that activate extremely dangerous reactions that completely cloud our minds and hearts.

 Our interactions are affected by unresolved past issues, only because we haven’t explored and identified the truth of our upbringings.

Co-dependency born of abandonment begins at birth. It’s passed on by unconscious parents – and all parents are complicit, as were their parents. We spend the rest of our lives looking for acceptance and affirmation as a result, as well as many other entangled issues.

None of us were acknowledged to be the spiritual creatures we arrived as. The portal soon closed and we were born into a world of abuse and engineered survival challenges of every sort. We searched for true love and understanding from the start, but it was denied.

And we were left confused, desperate, and hungry for true love and spiritual community.

Again, a massive subject that deserves real investigation and application. It’s way too much to fully explain here. You can liken these deeper issues to impacted spiritual teeth. They are painful, often infected, and need surgery.

 If you dive into this subject and are willing to expose yourself fully and the digging it entails, the healing can begin.

 Bringing It Home

I’ve been going through some serious self discovery for some time now.

 It’s not all that pleasant, yet it is extremely liberating and empowering. Besides other issues in my life, my recent separation from Elle brought up more things than I could handle at times and I was often overwhelmed with emotional instinctive reactions and just plain gunk that came up.

Even knowing the conscious and detached observer mode is the only true and awake way to handle it, I was flooded with reactions that in turn triggered all kinds of strange crap from my past.

It seems a current, justified feeling and response when going through things like this, but all of it is based in past childhood and otherwise traumas and feelings of abandonment, abuse, learned co-dependency and everything I grew up with.

I’ve become aware of much over my life time and thought I was getting a handle on this challenge called living, but these past months have made mincemeat of my illusions.

And I’m happy for it, although it hurts like a bitch. I’m fully committed to going all the way and I guess Universe is helping me along with these very deep and painful tests.

It seems we have to get to the extreme before we really pay attention and look for the true bigger picture in always newer ways.

Face It Head On

All I can say is the quickest way through these types of issues is straight on.

We’re at a very poignant time in human history with the veil lifting so dramatically of late.

I’m still in the midst of all this, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. It never turns off, we just don’t see it in the preoccupation with our selves we naturally succumb to, and the smoke of the burning fires of purification billowing about us. That’s just the nature of the transformation.

If we’re willing to take it on the chin and face whatever we need to we’ll get through it all the quicker. But it’s not without setbacks and there’s no formula for going through any type of crisis.

The key is honesty and determination, in my opinion. That’s what’s seeing me through, so far, and being as loving as possible while the flames of hell seem to lick my my every nerve.

Not fun when the fires rage, but learn we can. And will.

Enjoy the ride. All things pass. Try to take it with grace when it comes your way. You’ll fall flat on your face many times but just keep getting up. We’re all getting through this.

 It’s just part of the process, and all in love…
