There is one thing for which you can always rely on the US government: HYPOCRISY!
THERE IS ONE THING for which you can always rely on the US government: HYPOCRISY. Dollops of it! US puppet-president, Donald Trump, says “no child of God should ever suffer such horror”, lamenting the fact that chemical weapons were used on children in Syria. Yet, the US has run around the world for decades invading many countries, bombing the shit out of them with “shock and awe” (killing millions of innocent women and children in the process), fomenting coups d’états, putting puppet leaders in place then assassinating them when they no longer serve their purpose, etc. Heck, they’ve even deliberately dropped napalm bombs on villages with many “beautiful babies” in them! (The photo attached to this article is an iconic picture from the Vietnam war of children fleeing a village after US troops napalm-bombed it – one with her clothes burned from her body and her body terribly burned).
Every “Moment” is the Edge
EVERY “MOMENT” IS THE EDGE! Now you may ask “Why is ‘moment’ in quotation marks”? Simple. Because there is no such thing. Not really. Moment = mistake. Here’s the ride: There is no past (for that is only imagined temporarily in some neuronal electrical impulse in our brains). It doesn’t really exist. There is no future (for that is only a neuronally-imagined possibility or potentiality). That also has no objective existence. Neurons are transitory will-o-the-wisp opportunists which take advantage of the fickle fleeting newness of the illusion of the present. Let’s be honest, there isn’t even really any “now”; for as soon as you grab it as “now” it becomes a lie, no longer extant. Now is never now! Try to grasp it and it’s gone, like an incontinent elderly gentleman who repeatedly excuses himself and leaves the room. So let’s also forget about now.

From Iraq to Syria (via Libya)
The Use of “Atrocity Propaganda” by the Western Powers
A kind of madness has overtaken the world. It is not a new sort of madness; but it is one which has increased hugely in intensity during the past fifteen years since the events of September 11th 2001 in the USA. This madness had occasionally surfaced temporarily prior to those events (most notably in the public response to the death of Lady Diana Spencer). The madness I am speaking about is far more dangerous and bizarre even than what one would ordinarily call “madness”. For this one is contagious — striking anyone of any social class, political wing, level of intelligence or sophistication. The madness of which I am speaking is completely irrational, making people believe things which are patently and provably untrue, especially those which come through visual and written media channels and which seem to send them into a frenzy of unfettered emotionalism. This is the madness of mass gullibility.
To continue what I wrote on November 9th
TO CONTINUE WHAT I WROTE ON NOVEMBER 9th, MANY HAVE BEEN SAYING, IN RESPONSE TO THE US ELECTION VOTE (and also to the so-called “Brexit” voting) that “democracy is starting to take a dangerous turn”. This seems to mean that people don’t like the way that the voting has gone. The thing is that if one wants to live in even the limited kind of “democracy” which one believes that one has, then one also has to accept it when the vote doesn’t go the way one likes it to go. I have watched with interest how so many on social media avidly badmouth the candidate they won’t be voting for (or didn’t vote for) and will also accept ANY propaganda or obvious lie which is told about him/her on the internet. I have seen this very many times lately, even among my ‘friends’ on social media. It’s just crazy — taking sides like that and then getting so horribly caught up in it that it becomes a real conflict and takes over one’s mind. Facebook, for example, has lately been absolutely resounding with these drama kings and queens! 😀 What a business it’s all been! People only seem to like the present (faux) democracy which they claim to support if the vote goes their way. If it doesn’t, then they start getting all worked up about how “fascism has returned” and other silly propaganda. (In fact, fascism — if by that term one means autocracy or totalitarianism — never really left but has always continued to work under the radar; but I won’t develop that here as it needs a paper all to itself 😉 ). However, the reality is that THERE IS NO REAL DEMOCRACY ANYWHERE. True democracy involves the people being active and welcome participants (or at least privy to the entire workings of the system) at all levels; but nothing could be further from the truth. The idea that the people are empowered by being able to vote for whichever politician matches their chosen ideology, or who they have been inculcated to vote for by a biased media, or who has sufficiently deceived them with lies is frankly ludicrous!
Dear People who are either Depressed or Celebrating Today
DEAR PEOPLE WHO ARE EITHER DEPRESSED OR CELEBRATING TODAY as a result of the US election circus… I have a message for you: You have been played — deceived, taken for a ride, conned by propaganda and psychological warfare. It has all been a piece of entertainment to blind you to the reality of life in this world today. You see, presidents are of no original importance to the future of this world, for they have no actual power. They are merely puppets who have to do the will of the secret power elite which really controls everything. You refuse to believe that because your conditioned view of reality would come crashing down around your ears. But it’s time to WAKE UP! If you cannot see how the power elite has been messing with your minds in these elections (the same with the Brexit bullshit too) then you need to reassess your worldview.
The Source of Love [words & sonnet]
It’s a life-changing epiphany to realise that when we love someone, that love is not a thing that started when they came into our life. The other person merely made manifest what is already within us constantly (though mostly we don’t see it with our hearts). For in everyone there is a golden box of love which can be opened wide, or closed, kept locked and in the dark, if we so choose. Various experiences that we have in life cause us to make defensive choices about that golden box which leave us feeling loveless and longing for a love which we falsely think can only come through someone else. Thus, when some other guy or girl turns up in our “love life”, we’re riding on a high and become dependent on them to experience love and are fearful of being abandoned (again, a feeling which goes back to bad early life experiences). If they desert us or go off with someone else, we then believe that love has left us too and we feel heartbroken, utterly bereft and alone. But this is a terrible illusion! For there is already a powerhouse of love within us which is available to be experienced constantly.
Basic Facts about the 2016 US Election
I HAVE BEEN WRITING AN ARTICLE ABOUT THE UPCOMING US ELECTION because so many of my friends seem to be in a fluster about it and this has concerned me. But it has got rather lengthy, so I thought I would make a bullet-point list of the essential headings in the article and place them in an image which can easily be shared. So here it is attached. Please click on it to read the smaller print and then, if you wish, please share. Thank you!
Something to Bear in Mind, Part #2
Continuing from yesterday’s post, “Something to Bear in Mind, Part#1”, about the level of infiltration of all movements, groups and organisations — whether of right, left, alternative or liberal wings — by agents provocateurs and shills of the power-elite today, I want to develop this and show how to view it all without being upset by it or overly concerned. That many of those who are familiar with the extent of this infiltration are shaken by it, I can understand. It is a huge thing. Comparatively few in the world realise just how much infiltration there is and how deep it goes. It is too much to face up to for many and is a terrible realisation which means one has to rethink everything (which, actually, is no bad thing! 😉 ). However, personally speaking, I am not remotely concerned by this infiltration and I want to share here with you why that should be:
Something to Bear in Mind, Part #1
The corrupt power-elite (the unseen entities which temporarily control this planet) control all sides now — some blatantly, some more subtly — whether republican, democrat, conservative, socialist, labour party, green, “alternative”, New Age movement, anarchist, peace movement, “truth” movement, UFO societies, Christianity, Islam, ISIS, religious cults, anti-cult organisations, the whole fucking show. They are all hopelessly infiltrated and controlled from within by the power-elite and it’s far more advanced than anyone may imagine. Such infiltration is standard intelligence procedure, right up there alongside false-flag operations as undercover tactics to bring down perceived opponents. Always control every side. It’s a theatre designed for a funny farm but it’s no joke. So here’s my advice: Join nothing. Trust nothing (except patent truth). Develop discernment. Know the difference between true light and phony light (disguised darkness). Develop some of the skills of a world-class spy (those few which don’t involve lying and killing). Laugh a lot with friends. Meditate. Exercise your body. Live cleanly and quietly. Play music, sing and/or dance much. Respect yourself and your life-force (and that of others). Centre yourself in love (which is beautifully powerful for those who love it, bewildering for those who aren’t used to it, destructive to anything dark and it must never be confused with sentimentality). Develop a piercing mind (not to be confused with IQ). Don’t run away. From anything. Ever. Stand your ground in the Light. Always. Be a Knight. Fear nothing and no one. Smile. Enjoy yourself. 🙂
