It was just last week that I found myself heading to the
town of Santa Rosa , Ca. with my
business partner and his wife; on a mission of running a couple errands then having
dinner out. Our final stop before dinner
was at a neighborhood green cross dispensary.
It's just after dusk, and the sky hasn't yet gone full dark. As we neared the building our attention was
drawn by an unusual mechanical sound originating from behind, and above us. We turned as one to look, and sure enough
hovering just above the street was a police drone. Watching US!
It was one of those quad-copter designs and as we watched it
I could tell whoever was flying it was no rookie pilot. Maintaining a perfect hover 70 feet from the
dispensary in near darkness gave all of us a weird Orwellian kind of
feeling. We continued on about our business, relegating the sighting to the
subconscious mind for a while.
After dinner, my business partner went to fetch the car as I
entertained his wife with my stellar wit in front of the parking structure. We were standing about a quarter block from a
main intersection...and we heard the drone again. This time it was flying slowly directly above
the north-south city street, as if it was following a specific car. Some 30 seconds later a police cruiser rolled
calmly down the same street, following the drone, evidently with the pilot
inside.
When we first saw the drone I had the thought of grabbing my
phone and taping the encounter, since it was my first; but then my brain served
up a slide show of recent stories where doing so hasn't ended well for free
speech. Suddenly my mind is telling me
things like the lighting sucks, and filming the drone might expose my
friends to harm, at the hands of those sworn to protect and serve. So I chose not to film the drone, but the process
of reaching that decision gnawed at my subconscious like a hungry grizzly bear.
In public domain I should be allowed to film anything I
wish, including a police drone which is filming me...but I don't have that
right. OK, I heard that, technically
I do have that right - but attached is the proviso that I understand
exercising that right could result in injury, persecution, or even death. Catch-22.
Just as the tide eventually transforms rough, jagged rocks
into smooth beach pebbles, our freedoms have been eroded in much the same
way. The process was well underway
before the storm tide of 9-11...ever since; our rights have taken a draconian pounding.
Our collective reaction to these increasing assaults is ...
we adjust to them, very quietly. We
don't want to discuss it, don't want to offer an opinion; really we wish folks
would just stop writing blogs about it all together. We adjust our tolerance to increasing levels
of genocide and insanity run amok because we have no answers, solutions or even
any idea how things ever got this bad.
When we weren't paying attention; someone changed the rules. When we didn't challenge them, they just
became bolder, and when we let them get away with more, they wanted even more still.
Perhaps we collectively thought
"they" would stop at some point short of a police state with 24 hour monitoring of
every citizen; so I wonder, now that we're there, how's that
silent majority thing working for ya?
My parent's generation was given some nifty little catch phrases to keep them docile & content: mantras like You can't fight city hall, My country right or wrong, Don't make waves, To get along ya gotta go along, program updates! Like dutiful republicans, my folks tried to indoctrinate my sister and I with this utopian mindset, bless their demented little souls. With us humans it's called social engineering, for livestock, it's herding; same thing.
If you believe that freedom is being allowed your choice of
intentionally limited options, then you might also believe that repeating
something slick you heard on TV is
thinking. They don't want us to think;
which is exactly why they spend so much effort &
cash keeping us collectively distracted as they daily change the rules the
world runs by. When will we collectively
understand that always picking the lesser of two evils still leaves us always controlled
by evil.
We have always known that all governments are inherently
evil & corrupt. Because we don't want the wrath of said
governments, we elect to remain silent in hopes that evil will reciprocate and
leave us alone as well. Evil doesn't
bargain, unless its for your very soul; and collectively we have chosen wrong,
yet again. If human history is any
indicator at all, it may be quite a while before we collectively get it
right. Unfortunately, Gaia doesn't have
that kind of time any longer. You didn't
"forget" about Fukushima
did you? Let it gently float to the
lower realms of subconscious so you could make your calculations without factoring
it in??
When that tsunami hit we collectively went from a
pre-Fukushima earth, to a post-Fukushima earth and that genie is never
going back into the bottle, ever. Good
thing to factor in for the future, huh?!
Still eating seafood are we? We
play by the rules our whole life (well, most of us) believing all those
pretty sounding lies streaming from newspaper, TV
& laptop. Then just as it's all just about to pay off,
the rules mysteriously change overnight, once again. Don't know about the rest of you but as for
myself I was really tired of this shit two decades ago. Is there a plan to do something about it, and
I didn't get the memo?
Occasionally I get reminded by friends & strangers alike that when I speak my
truth it is without filters, or buffers in place to spare the reality sensitive
in the room any undue stress. They're
right. On post-Fukushima earth there no
longer exists the time to indulge in such linguistic gymnastics and word
salad. We must break out of the mold we
agreed to think inside of, and begin communicating to one another from the
heart center. Nobody needs a politician,
priest, or blogger to tell them the difference between right & wrong.
Each of us knows in our heart when something is right or wrong; good or
evil. that is why your heart is the
first thing they disconnect you from. First
they disconnect us from our spiritual selves, then they desensitize us to the
suffering of others, get the kids hooked on grand theft auto and first person
shooter games. Pre-training for our
future crop of nintendo commandos. When
you speak from the heart you don't need filters.
It was around 1994 when I first saw online, "The 10
rules for being human" which it seems was someone's idea of updating
or revising the ten commandments for the new age. All these years later it still survives in
the wilderness of cyberspace, and in quite an assortment of variations. I think its purpose has been to help folks
see the vaster reality at hand, and at the same time, slow them down from the
rat race with reminders of those things we have forgotten about being in the
flesh. As I think of it I believe they
stopped too soon at just ten rules, because I can think of several that should
be included at some point.
New Rules:
Stop agreeing to
things that make your soul vomit.
Stop filtering
your truth and playing make believe.
Stop letting fear
make your biggest choices for you.
Stop letting your
ego run the show.
Stop Gender
discrimination.
Holding on doesn't
require strength, but letting go does.
What other's think
of you, good or bad, is none of your business.
Not everything is
as it seems.
Don't believe
everything you think.
If you don't know
where you're going, any road will get you there.
Instead of using critical thought to arrive at our own
conclusions, we're conditioned like Pavlov's dog to regurgitate whatever
propaganda someone crams in our heads.
We must reject such social engineering, and all attempts to influence
how we speak to each other (except mine). Words carry vibration, meaning and
substance. Our history is replete with
examples of when words inspired good men to revolt against evil and we could
sure as hell use some of that right now.
To disempower our communication with each other we're expected to be politically
correct and never actually say anything of any real substance,
ever again. It's just another layer of
programming, that's all. We really can
go another way, a more heart centered way, but first we have to want
to!
The problem with speaking thru filters and mental censors is
that no matter who we think we are, we eventually lose track of which
partial truth or boldfaced lie we spoke to who, and to get what end
result. Everything in the head becomes
just one great swirling morass of meaningless monkey chatter; and its about all
you can do to just manage it without going insane. Somewhere down in the middle of this morass
is the real self you used to be, filtered to death and frantic now.
Like everything else, the matrix has assimilated the human
potential movement, twisted and perverted it so many ways to serve its own
agenda. Disconnected, desensitized, and
confused. We're collectively right where
they want us to be. We need to stop
adjusting to ever escalating madness and psychopathic insanity, and start
fixing things...oh, what's this you say; we're leaving that for
our great grandchildren to clean up along with Fukushima . What will you say when they ask why you did
nothing but go along? Maybe you should start working on the answer right
now.
Every system is based on some idea, principle, or basic
belief: with most of them choosing money as that central pillar. This post-Fukushima earth we inhabit, with all
it's unholy terrors is the result of that choice, of putting money above all
else, including love. Perhaps it would
be easier to accept and understand if
everybody was like the 1% elitists who think they fucking own this
place, but that isn't in evidence. By
far, the vast majority of humans are fairly nice and agreeable folks who are
generous to a fault and quick to laugh, quicker to love. So why are none of these people represented
in our various governments. We all know
that answer.
Lord Acton is famous for the quote: "Power tends to corrupt
and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Great men are almost always bad men." Again our own history on this world confirms
such with literally thousands of examples.
After this long we must now either tear this unholy machine apart piece
by piece, or quit trying to convince ourselves of what a great civilization we
have here, and admit we're just a bunch of terrified slaves. How's that for a new rule?
How about the esteemed art of lying? Want some truth, here ya go: Everybody
lies! Period. As a good many of us
discovered soon after arrival, it's all about survival down here, and its every
one for themselves. People who commit to
speaking the whole truth and nothing but the truth will eventually realize what
a huge disadvantage being totally honest is because they are as fragile and
doomed as young love. Everybody says they hate liars and nobody ever admits telling lies, which proves the fact that we all lie. The sticky, problematical part comes when we refuse to admit it to anyone, including ourselves.
Collectively we lie for many different reasons, some of them
semi-noble in essence; mostly though we
lie for self gain, and self protection...the worst kind of lie there is. Catch 22: We honor truth so much nobody is allowed speak it,
so we defend it with a many layered shroud of lies. Laws have even been passed prohibiting
revealing some truths. Here's the deal;
if something is being done in secret, and nobody can know about it, it's
probably something very bad for the 99% of us in survival mode. Too many secrets! They ain't defending truth by lying, they're
suffocating it to death.
So, what about us here in the peanut gallery, why do we lie
so much to and about each other? Try as
I might, the answer eludes me but I suspect it has something to do with ego and
the urge to manipulate things. We
collectively figure it's OK to lie because
it's almost an essential aspect of modern life. Nobody wants to be the last
honest man. If that be the case then I
submit that modern life is a dismal failure of the highest magnitude. In a classic rant about honesty; George Carlin
opined that the system is so totally corrupt that if mandatory honesty was
imposed, everything would fall apart. We are not living meaningful lives
if we abandon truth as the foundational pillar of our system. John Lennon said it best: "Just
gimme some truth"
When we lie to each other it dishonors our spirits, it's
like a little insult; and when we try lying to ourselves it unnecessarily opens
up a whole other can of worms into our life.
Do you remember the way you felt inside the very first time you
intentionally told a lie? Remember that
cold squirrley sensation in the gut?
That was your soul reacting to the lie.
What did your heart tell you when it first heard you tell a lie? Remember that? Remember that! Every lie we tell is a step away from the
person we always thought we'd be, and another lesson we failed to learn. When we fail too many lessons....well you
know. Back to square one, day one -
start all over. I just have a hard time
accepting that is what we collectively want.
Sometimes we have to slay the monsters before its safe to dream our
dreams. This right now ~ it's one of
those moments in time poets will write about in a millennium or so...a time
when the cosmic tumblers fell into place giving us one last chance to come
together and evolve out of darkness.
Your comfort zone is your prison cell, because everything
truly magical exists beyond it's anesthetizing confines. It doesn't take a Bloomberg terminal to tell
our economy has tanked and is now on life support, yet you continue to slough
thru drivetime twice a day firm in the belief your job will still exist
tomorrow. Blind optimism.
Right now we're all surrounded by a good many things which
we cannot see, or sense: yet they exist despite our collective blindness;
things like ultraviolet & infrared
light for example. Their frequency
resonance is just too fast. Conversely
there are octaves of higher frequency resonances opening up for mankind's spiritual
evolution, collectively we cannot see or detect these energies, but every day
more people are seeing and feeling them.
Once expanded by new awareness, the human mind cannot revert back to its
previous state of ignorance - this is what the great awakening is all about. What does your heart tell you about all
this? If the answer is to go take part
in the Black Friday human stampede you haven't been paying
attention.
One time I stepped aside to be alone with myself a while, and I haven't returned because of
what I learned there. The more people I
meet the better I like my cat, because she never lies to me. This crumbling system built on the pillars of
greed cannot be sustained or saved, it is doomed. Holding on doesn't require strength but
letting go does. So, the next time
you're out on the town never mind those flying drones, if you have nothing to
hide, you have nothing to fear! Right?
Whatever
happened to Life, Liberty and the
pursuit of Happiness?
Resistance is Crucial
I'm going to print out a bunch of small slips of paper with nothing but this web site printed on them and pass them out at parking lots or under windshield wipers.
ReplyDeletei look at it like this. i will do the best i can to share my gifts however humble they may be. maybe some info about herbs, an encouraging word whatever. stuff i cant control i am aware of but i dont focus on it. as we expand and share our own light it becomes more and more apparent how evil this system is. eventually each one of us must choose what we are about. i would rather die as a lion than live as a dog licking the boots of our nazi controllers. just my 2 cents
ReplyDeletePretty clear vision there! Probably worth more than ya think; because I often feel as if what we're supposed to do is to find a meaningful life, and whatever happiness we can: despite the monsters in control and all their nastiness. Dancing in the dragon's jaw!
DeleteDon't want to be a drag, but it's getting more and more difficult to smile and have a good time at life. There is so much corruption, parasitic evil greed, that it gets hard to even breathe. We're struggling to survive. It's like I have to delude or manipulate myself into being hopeful or happy. Like one might with a child, to allay their fears so they can get back to sleep from a nightmare. Maybe fib a little. 'Everything's ok...'
ReplyDeleteBoy can I relate to that! Yeah, it can be damn depressing, and we know what happens when that snowballs into acute chronic depression. To avoid that I suggest we all listen more to what our heart says about any given thing, situation or decision. Think small; as in the world around you each day...that's your world, you're sphere of influence...so start influencing things people and events within it - in a loving, positive way.
DeletePush back against the insanity by loving large. My daughter fights back by intentionally DOING everything she & her family most enjoy doing...not letting the darkness blind her to the light. The ripples made by living that way are invisible, but powerful!!
good advice - thanks!
