[MD] epiphanies

[gav]

yesterday was epiphany sunday and, fittingly, and with the aid of a few mojitos, the day held true to its name.

my girlfriend has been on a head trip for the last few days - 2012, world war3, illuminati etc. it can be scary cos you know a lot of it makes alot of sense. watching israel invade palestine i am reminded of nostradamus and albert pike and others who foretold ww3 as being triggered by just this event (pike even gave the date - 2009).

but i am also, gratefully, reminded by my immortal soul-brother hank miller, that nostradamus was a shit and albert pike was a freemason and that the world has been in the thrall of the image-makers for thousands of years. by image-makers i mean those that know that reality is a consensual dream and have used this knowledge to hypnotise people into being their slaves: if people en masse believe things are a certain way that is the way they will be.

but the intellectual level was the beginning of the end of the image-makers because now the individual had a tool that could be used to pierce the veil...a tool that had to be used well, that the individual had to learn to use deftly, artfully.

much effort has been expended in keeping this tool blunt. most notably school and uni. but books and art and music and conversation and nature are our allies and what allies they are!

anyway time to get to the point:
the giant has a death wish. to the giant control is all and even the death of the human world cannot shake him from this mission. he is very single-minded. those in thrall of the giant - politicians, ceos etc - unconsciously or consciously share this wish. they are plotting our downfall. it's the new world order or nothing to them - eden doesn't resonate with them because it is based on the premise of man's equality with man and nature as a whole. politicians are of course not usually prone to humility. ceos are just plain sick, usually.

but armageddon resonates with many - especially weak-minded religious types. end of the world scenarios are going to get a lot of airplay in order to convince people that this logic is ineluctable - it is our destiny. and reality is simply the product of collective manifestation - if we think it's gonna happen - with enough coherence and clarity - it will happen. as ram dass says: worrying is like praying for what you don't want to happen.

so it follows that if we can envisage a world we actually want - a world without war, without power, without waste and misery and alienation - then we can manifest it: if enough people cohere their clear visions of this world and how it will come about. in other words if millions of people hold firm to their vision of a coming golden age - arcadia, eden - and if their daily life is targetted on this goal, then we can have this reality instead of the armageddon. it depends on how we think collectively and how well we think - how clearly, how carefully - and how well our actions and thoughts complement each other.

if there is one simple differentiating factor it is nature. if we ally ourselves with nature, if we see ourselves as integral to nature, then we are tapping into a source of energy and intelligence that the death-eaters have no parallel for. gaia is their greatest enemy and it is no coincidence that forests are felled and fire-bombed here in australia with increasing urgency; that our water is poisoned with chlorine and fluoride; that our food is corrupted with poisons and chemical fertilisers and genetic modification; and that our children are taught to fear the natural world as dirty, scary, or just encouraged to ignore it altogether.

in the long run gaia will prevail; but it is the human toll that we are determining right now with our actions. there are two poles of potentiality - armageddon and eden, and which we actualise is up to us. this is what intellect is about, this is what choice is about - this is the theme of our universe - the one theme - choice. free will.

this is no time for semantics and navel-gazing; if we are to philosophise then it must be philosophy in action, it must be more than words - it must be mirrored by our actions and felt in our hearts. 

by synchronising our actions, thoughts and desires we empower ourselves; if we instead remain vague about what we want, work in a job that is mind-numbing and ecologically destructive, and remain imprisoned by the habitual patterns of mind then we are controlled by the giant and are throwing our weight behind his kamikaze dive.

time to choose
