To Dance Away from the Lip of the Abyss.

Dog Poet Transmitting.......

A dog is the only creature on Earth that loves you more than he loves himself.

You know... there are certain things you can expect from certain lineages. From the Bush Dynasty, you can expect an enduring legacy of deaths and deceptions. From a Marsalis or Wayans Dynasty you are going to get musicians and actors... maybe a few comedians. AND from the Hilton Dynasty, heh heh, well... let's let this newsbite speak for itself. I talk a lot about the rising tide of madness that continues to manifest in socio-political affairs. If you can't see it by now in the world around you, you are most likely an example of it.

Insanity is a form of consciousness that expresses itself according to the pressures of the culture it appears in. There are two major expressions of insanity that can appear in a culture; one (if this makes any sense) is any permutation of personal reaction to Materialism that manifests in subjective fashion. Two; religious hysteria in all the forms we see it in today but... this is a direct extension of Materialism so... there's really just the one cause; Materialism. As any impartial observer can see, Materialism goes through stages. At first you don't see that much full blown madness. You see a lot of variables of neurosis with some amount of compulsion and obsession and a few other forms. Psychosis starts to show up in the second act and psychopathy begins to emerge but it doesn't get pandemic until even further along.

You might think of the ocean as a good metaphor. Collective human consciousness is like an ocean and all of it is connected via the subconscious. When this area of our being is affected by circumstance or deliberate action, the ocean becomes ever more restless and unruly. Think of it perhaps as levels of white water (for you insane kayakers- grin). As it moves from one stage to the next, it sweeps away whole segments of the population that are not equipped to manage Force 3, or Force 4 and most especially 5, 6 and 7; if there even is a Force 7. It is simple math here. Some of us have a not so tight grip on our sense of self; our idea of who we think we are. Once the force becomes greater than the pounds per square inch of ones grip on what they previously thought was real, boom! Away you go.

The greater the force of material culture; the greater the press and presence of Materialism, the less focus is generally placed upon things like self inquiry and a shared knowledge of the more timeless verities. The nature of Materialism is to compromise objective consciousness and render the public subjective. You don't need everyone to be so affected. You might not even need half of the people and they got more than that. All they need is enough of the culture so as to publicize and identify it that way and then that is 'how it looks' everywhere, except to those few who are strong enough; who are in possession of objective awareness due to having engaged in the requisite amount of self inquiry, or carrying that capacity within them from other times.

Materialism IS insanity and like white water, or degrees of wind force, or the size of the waves or any force you can think of that moves from placid to ever greater and greater intensity well... there you are, like it or not. I'm talking about this today because of what I see on the internet and the news as well as through my own eyes as I move through a landscape where I haven't been in over 15 years.

If you wonder why I might not seem as sharp as I usually am; should you be any of those people who would allow that I am, if not always but usually, it is because of the near overpowering effect of suddenly being in another world; no longer in that single room where I was most of the time, no longer in a generally supportive and nurturing environment but in a place that requires me to pay a lot more attention to certain things than I have 'had to' for some while. I don't mean to say this environment is not supportive and nurturing because there are some fine folk here who are making it a pleasure to be around, regardless of other things they are not in a position to do anything about.

I am compelled to spend hours a day sometimes just contemplating all of this. On any number of days I have told myself, “don't go anywhere. Stay where you are.” Oddly enough, I am also being told (hearing it nearly every day); “You don't have to do anything any more. You do not have to seek anyone or anything out. You have only to simply be and if you never leave your house, everything will come to you.” The uncanny part of this is that I can feel this is true. I've had any number of examples of this taking place. I've been able to predict things in a way that I never was before. There are a few conditions that I did not expect to be experiencing. I did not realize how much I relied on my significant other for certain intangibles of being. I like 'alone' because I never am but... I realize now that there are imponderables that don't occur to us until they are no longer present. Bottom line though, when your whole life is about the unseen and only incidentally as it impacts on the seen and your opposite number has no belief or inclination in that area, you wind up without certain essentials of interplay that are critical to the gestalt, or what might have been the gestalt. Still, anytime you come out of any long engagement with anyone and you are still friends, you have accomplished a great deal.

Something I don't mention often enough is that we are on the verge of massive technological breakthroughs in many diverse areas of human endeavor. Some of these will be so revolutionary and impactful that they will change life as we formerly knew it. There is a war under way to suppress, subvert and hijack these things for the benefit of outworn technologies or for the purpose of exclusive utilization by the military industrial complex but... much as with the invention of the telephone, the car and various other inventions, like an idea whose time has come, you find these things are being simultaneously brought into being from several locations. Because of the internet and the tremendous speed of the flow of information in these times, conditions are far different from anything they ever have been as far as this period of recorded history goes. We are in for some big changes folks. You already know about this as far as the unfortunate trending of the culture, as well as the theaters of politics and religion. The nature of the archetypes that have maintained the status quo that we came to know for so long now are transforming into their Aquarian prototypes. All of the institutions and infrastructure that have been with us for so long are in the cosmic shop. They are being reworked and there is no human agency, no matter how powerful, which are going to be able to do anything about that. Sure, they can meddle and manipulate, terrorize and torture but that is just the last gasp of a dying age. However... IF they can sway you with their machinations and subliminal hanky panky, you are in trouble. Don't let that happen.

Another thing that hasn't been mentioned here for a bit and which doesn't get mentioned much at all anywhere else is the potential changes that are going to be brought about by Lady Nature. It is important to keep in mind that just as humanity is assuredly driven insane by an excess of Materialism because the necessary portion of humanity that is required to make that happen, is obliging to that effect so too, the collective force of the human mind has a direct impact on external nature. Insanity is contagious and Nature is a subconscious force. These things should be clear to anyone with even an average mind but... due to the incredible force of Materialism, most people are not in a position to step back and see things as they are. Most people do not register how dysfunctional life has become. It cannot perpetuate in that state for any length of time. Change, massive change becomes inevitable and given the turbulent waters of the collective unconscious, all kinds of things are possible, including long predicted or expected events. I'm not going to mention what those are, hopefully out of mind is out of sight.

Humanity needs a wake up call and it must need be incredibly powerful because... anything short of earthshaking doesn't seem to have much effect. Nothing that has happened so far has done the trick. Events like 9/11 seem to have had not much effect on people in general except to put them under heavy restrictions of movement and expression. However they are doing it, they have human consciousness under control; for the larger part of us. It is going to take something... something to shake that off and wake the flock of birds of a feather; the hypnotized schools of fish- something has to wake them up or ubiquitous bad things are going to be on the menu.

Regardless of what the masses do and regardless of what the elite cabals initiate or generate, the rest of us, that small demographic of souls in partial stages of awakening have our responsibilities to ourselves and to each other. In the end it doesn't matter what the world does. What matters is what you do and... don't do. I'm giving that my best shot. Of course it's not easy because the world as it seems to be wants all of us under harness; puppets of the 15th Trump. No matter how it may look, we are stronger than any external force directed at us, depending on what we base our strength and resourcefulness on to begin with.

He Vis,

I so agree with your words. To support your comment I would like to draw attention to the fact that on the day 9/11 occurred there was a huge solar flare from the sun. Many scientists argued that the solar flare may have been a catalyst for the 9/11 events, but I knew straight away, to my very core, that the solar flare was a direct reaction to the anxiety and heightened emotions of collective humanity, which was a direct result of the televised vision of those planes hitting the Twin Towers. It was the emotional trauma that humanity suffered that day which directly effected the sun. The elite manifested the entire thing! They are playing God and that can't be good!

As usual Vis you have your finger on the pulse.

Luv Kazz

The need for a " big event" brings to mind the mystic Faustina, who along with many others forsaw a Great Warning which was called the Illumination of Conscience, wherein when things here approached the very worst, every human soul would experience simultaneously a moment of complete clarity and grace...but I digress and I haven't even started yet, heh.
What I wanted to share with someone tonight was something I found that i had copied years ago from Faustina's diary. After reading the insightful and even daring comments above on materialism
( someday I will write about the very rich man from LA who found his way to DC -- homeless, paranoid, schizophrenic; but as his therapist I heard repeatedly only about his boat and homes and cars and possessions...for many weeks until they stopped possessing him...)
It appears this is the place to share her mighty words:
"...
…How fleeting all earthly things are, and how everything that appears great disappears like smoke and does not give the soul freedom but weariness. 
Happy the soul that understands these things and with only one foot touches the earth…

When I left the altar, an extraordinary peace and power filled my soul, and the storm that was raging broke against my soul as against a rock; 
and the foam of the storm fell on those who had raised it....
..Then I heard the words, Do Not Fear, I am with you..."

Thank you for these spaces you provide.

Heh, heh. You are as sharp as ever, just in a more laid back 'Tropical Time' kind of way.

No need for the turbo-charged postings, like you were James A. Michener crossed with Phillip K. Dick, Vis.

Am still chewing and ruminating on the last one and its comments; thoroughly enjoyable.

For Les Visible:

So that's what happens when I lose it. Brilliant! A priest / counselor / poet for the ages. May Viz be lifted up.

Yes, they are hijacked. A horrible example is the perception of cancer. Though cancer was shown to be cured in 1934 to chief scientists who could verify (a la Royal Raymond Rife), the Rulers (they apparently now like to be called Olympians [as in Greek gods] [gag]) have managed to continue selling the worthless chemo and radiation therapies to the ignorant. Medical people maintain an undeserved status THAT CAN KILL YOU.

The disfunction is acute, especially among the slow and ignorant (where I currently live). Moving among them reminds me of Seven of Nine whose normal functioning terrified even the advanced non-Borg.

I am comforted to learn that tablet technology is Android (a form of Unix). We can get away from the evil Windows marketer. I have used Unix (Linux) before (very fast and powerful, enormous and stable). If I'm not mistaken, most of the world uses it. Cheaper too. We advance....

Get thee behind me XV.

I see Materialism as the reversal of cause/effect by which an illusion of power operates upon and within an illusion of powerlessness.
Source or true Cause is Eternally Indivisible, and yet our human consciousness is a facet of a fragmented disintegrity in which coercive power seems to divide and rule in power OVER Life.
In the wish-attempt to control Life is the reflection of dissonance and disorder which reinforces its own 'foundation'.
The more coercive or fear-defined control is asserted, the more out of control one's self-world experience.
Relinquishing a phoney power allows spontaneous yielding to true harmony of a wholeness of being in resonant relation within all that is presencing itself.
The abyss can symbolize the nothingness of destruction or insanity - but it can also indicate the not-knowing through which Life Knows Itself Truly. For the belief one already knows is the dark lens by which one sees nothing truly.
An unyielding point of view operates 'denial' and wars not with reality but within itself as a denial of awareness of reality - of what is true to the reality that You Are. To fit or limit oneself to a machine is a chosen condition, but to persist becomes a self-conditioning. But self-definition remains a creative acceptance of true function and not a coercive imposition of power upon powerlessness. Nor a hiding of the illusion of power within a belief in powerlessness.

Wakeup Calling
humanity rages
destruction in stages
of everything under the sun

the birds and the bees
the rivers and trees
it seems like the end has begun

a population of people
turned into sheeple
conditioned to crave more and more

life based on greed
want, desire and need
leads to nothing but war

the planet is dying
the animals crying
the forests all being cut down

the climate is hot
except when it’s not 
and some say we’re all going to drown

living in fear
something is near
now we are all scared to death

chaos and change
can often feel strange
please just take a deep breath

we eat poison foods
take meds for our moods
we’re so ill we cannot take action

to keep us asleep
the tendrils run deep
with all manner of lies and distraction

we cut the tops off the hills
down below oil spills
for us to progress, it is said

it’s hard not to believe
if we do not grieve
soon we all will be dead

so what can we do
just me and you
to turn this whole thing around?

one way to recall
our connection to all
is to put our bare feet on the ground

now feel the Earth
remember its worth
let the energy run through your soul

look deep in your heart
that’s where you start
to connect yourself to the whole

this cannot be solved
if you don’t get involved
start now, there’s no time to wait

change how you’re living
stop taking, start giving
please, before it’s too late

and so there you are
if you’ve made it this far
three last things I will say if I may

begin with a bow
stay here in the now
and remember to breathe every day

The Eucharist, holy communion comes to mind. Material, my dear Les, is part of it, no more good or 'bad' than the spiritual. During communion the physical is united with the physical - no "either/or".
And it is certainly a "shared knowledge", participated in by a commune "ity".
People keep talking to me about 'prophecy'..but are things really worse than ever before?? I don't think so, "we" just think so...history repeats.
Sadly.
The "gestalt", oh yes. My Wife and son piss me off, often.
So what? It teaches me. I piss them off as well. One day we will appreciate this. The interplay is necessary.
God bless you Les, Namaste.
Perchance by God's grace we meet some day across Lethe, we'll have a good laugh, eh?
Thanks, many thanks

07 THE KEY on youtube....checked it out yesterday and it makes a good case for some of the Hollywood tricks and manipulations that were broadcast on 9/11.

Not that it matters in the whole scheme of things but it was entertaining.

And I did say on that day, "It looks like a Die Hard movie", even if I was somewhat in the dark back then.

The more coercive or fear-defined control is asserted, the more out of control one's self-world experience.

That statement reminds me of the scene in Pan's Labyrinth where the girl has to draw a chalk door and go through it. She succumbs to temptation by eating at the banquet and in doing so awakens the monster who promptly places his eyeballs in the palm of his hands and goes on a rampage after the girl destroying all enchantment while it mechanically goes about attacking anything that it views as a threat to all it could never eat in one sitting. Notice that this particular eyeball in the hand symbol is rife through advertising. A hallmark trait of the dark ones and their constant main stream media spell casting. This is unfortunately still the state of the bulk of humanity today though. Greed and materialism summed up to the eyeballs, CONSUME, CONSUME, CONSUME -sigh-

Viz - I didn't say the Patriots cheat I read that somewhere. But I don't care if they do or don't. This is the Kali Yuga and cheating is the order of the day.

Kazz - lovely display of humility back at Origami. Hey with regard to the elite, they don't manifest anything - their minions and the brain dead do it for them. It's refreshing to see that it now looks to be the case of 911 being the last almost successful false flag. They are failing in an outstanding manner these days with their piss poor attempts. The harder they try the more people they wake up. Oh the irony is lovely.

Thomas said...

Dear Vis,

first there is something I want to get off my chest. I called you "a whining little bitch" a little over two years ago, and I have numerous times thought myself as strong as you, and arrogantly sought to steer you according to my limited mind. For this I apologize, and should it happen again, please know that it is simply my mad ego talking. I have begun to get an idea of what kind of integrity, will-power and endurance it must have taken to SPEAK THE UNVARNISHED TRUTH for so many years, and I wonder if I have that kind of stamina too. Time will tell. By the grace of the Lord. I have learned much from our interactions, and your words, and you have given me the greatest of all gifts, by repeatedly saying "GOD IS REAL, AND I KNOW IT", and lead me to find Him/Her/It myself (well, found and found, but gotten into contact with ;)).

I have been looking at diggerfortruth.com (thanks Galen for pointing that out), and that "guy"/being seems to be the really real deal. I must research it slightly more, but it rings so so true. To read his simple prayers, and him saying "it's the jews!, don't use any other words". And his dedication to NOT HATE. The root cause of our troubles is "them who CALL themselves jews", the synagogue of Satan, and unfortunately they are protected by their lesser, ignorant brethren, some of who are good people. Thus, "the jewish elite" is more correct, but DO NOT SHY AWAY FROM THE J-WORD. HATE feeds the darkness, and we should Love them, but who knows what Love is? In this case, it is to do all that is in our power to STOP THEM! EXPOSE THEM IN ALL THEIR WICKED WAYS! This is a spiritual WAR! Well, Vis, you've been doing this for years. Awe-some!

I do not believe like you do, though, Visible, that we are necessarily entering a golden age. Science tells us that there are 30000 billion billion stars in the visible universe (yes, that is a number we can't grasp, hehe - "WOW!" TO GOD!). With so many worlds, I simply cannot believe that Satan cannot get a whole planet, that will then stagnate and die, or otherwise rot away. But I hope you are right, Visible, I do.

In any case, this is a truly beautiful existence, underneath everything. Just seeing a piece of wild nature tells us something about the mind-stopping magnificence of the Lord. Add to that the sayings of the saints that tell us that the higher worlds far surpass this plane in beauty, and I don't know what to think, except that it's best not to think anything about it. Just let it come as it comes. Now there are more urgent things to consider, seeing it is wartime.

Respect, Mr. Visible!
(I might still try in my dry way to tease and provoke you, but please take it more as sport ;))

Godspeed, all my fellows! May we be blessed with Strength to endure, Courage to face all fears and speak TRUTH, and the Power of Love to Hate nothing.

Brian, your thought-provoking post set off quite a show in this echo chamber of a skull with my trusty DJ on duty, cranking out the tunes. Not to say there's anything spectacular, seen from the angle of expert critique, about what came through, but it was an experience and the light does shine through the holes that it left.

It's a bit long, so I'm more comfortable linking it.

Haven't read past that one yet, but, knowing this place, I anticipate good stuff.

I would love, by the way, to see Visible's closing salutations from the radio show put into print somewhere. Just as text somewhere on these pages would do it. Even once. I could type them out myself. I wanted to here, but I didn't want to miss any or get them in the wrong order and I don't feel like listening to an old show just now.

Visible, I really hope you get the new radio show done. I miss your voice. Be well!

Les Visible,
I know you to be a kind, thoughtful, spiritual man.
Each and every time I come here I am blessed.

I wanted to say that I think we are not all alike, despite what the American and European media and governments insist we believe.
I've read the sort of outrage that I am linking to hundreds of times before and I do not go and seek such out. Whether Africa, Asia, or Latin America, I find a disregard for animals, and that includes torturing them for fun, even here, in the USA we have seen horses murdered for FUN by new immigrants from south of the border. Well I think we need to perhaps REJECT what the mainstream media of Canada, England, USA and etc spew day and night and what the government will PUNISH you if you do not accept it.

Cats Smuggled from China Buried Alive in Vietnam
Guardian, February 4, 2015


Vietnamese authorities have buried thousands of seized cats–many believed to have been alive at the time–that were smuggled from China to feed the illegal cat meat trade.

A truck carrying three tons of live cats crammed into bamboo crates was impounded in the Vietnamese capital, Hanoi, on Tuesday. On Wednesday a police officer said they had been buried in accordance with Vietnamese law on smuggled goods.

Seems there's more work ahead 'cause Brandon said this:


"Surely, there is a need for people with a talent to inspire others to thought and to action. But these men and women are nothing unless they can motivate individuals to eventually take their own initiative without orders. A true leader is a teacher — nothing more. And if he really cares about the future prosperity of the people he is teaching, that teacher’s objective will be for his students to exceed his own capabilities and to become independent in their accomplishments. ... All that matters is how effectively and efficiently we can get the facts to the public. ... Without risk, there can be no organization against tyranny and, thus, no chance of success. If you are afraid to be put on the naughty list in the National Security Agency database, if you are afraid you might lose your job, if you are afraid you might be labeled an 'extremist' or if you are afraid of uneducated public perception and this has prevented you from building mutual aid and defense groups where you live, then you have already lost everything. Fear leads to inaction, and inaction is death. ... Risk is inevitable. It is unavoidable. All anti-establishment, anti-tyranny movements depend on it. THE MORE PEOPLE WILLING TO TAKE RISKS, THE MORE EFFECTIVELY 'SAFE' THAT RISK BECOMES."
-- Brandon Smith, "Organizing Against Tyranny," 2/4/15

Being a guy who has had accusations leveled at him that were absolutely and provably not true; My visits to Mexico and India come to mind; not saying everything was untrue, which I freely admit but that 'substantial' parts were not and given that I was looked up on two occasions, which spanned several years and where, in both instances, the arrests were generated by either proven or admitted lies... all due to what? Karma I guess. I am understandably a bit more sensitive about this kind of thing that I might have been as a toddler (grin).

I know you weren't attempting to slander me concerning the thought that The Patriots cheat' that is WHY I wrote the following disclaimer comment. But I'll admit I can react sometimes and of course I'm sorry about that but... it happens.

In any case, here's the latest on that affair and it looks likely to me http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/02/06/new-deflategate-theory-colts-deflated-ball-after-jacksons-pick/

It made no difference in the game. The Pats crushed the Colts but some of The Colts were pretty upset about it. Anyway, I'm writing a post, back to it.

Anonymous said...

Galen, I don't believe a leader is necessarily a teacher. In the past I paid teachers to show me things. So, since I footed the bill I was the 'leader'.

Personally, I am my own leader, my own Priest and my own scientist. I will follow someone but only if they are going to a place I want to be and only if I think they can get there faster.

Leaders suck and I wish they would all go to hell. Fuck the first son of a bitch that crawled out of the forest and called himself a king. They are all arrogant. They are all stupid. They are all viscous.

High Priest, King, Sovereign, President, Pharoah, Emperor, whatever. We don't need them. But, we have been fooled into thinking we need them.

Bastards!

galen said...



McCob, I understand; I detest all forms of hierarchy. Yet I think back to this old adage though I forget who said it:

"What's the difference between a ruler and a leader? Answer: A ruler says, 'Go!" A leader says, 'Let's go!'

So the true leader is willing to be with you in the trenches, no matter the danger, no matter the sacrifice, and they're usually endowed with great doses of courage. And in a sense, that is what a real teacher is too; he/she teaches by modeling. The rest is all ego-game or money-game.

Even in nature we see the development of natural leadership: the alpha dog; and in the geese
flight-formation, there's that one at the helm. But those geese also take turns at leadership. I don't think their mind-set is that any is lesser than another, they just have found a way to get the job done. I love the idea of rotating leadership.

I think a true leader would welcome criticism and challenge. I've mentioned this before, but one teacher told me: "It's the teacher's job to get the student to pass him up." In other words, he's not invested in remaining the teacher but rather in advancing the teaching. Anyway, I do see that teaching and leadership have their place. Imagine trying to set a broken leg without having been taught the best methods for advancing healing?

McCob, I too, was scarred by some false ones who'd exploit me. And you are right: many leaders are NOT teachers, and especially today, serve the dark side. But I'm thinking about those who've lifted me, taught me: the many brave journalists, artists, activists, etc. They will forever be teachers to me and their leadership cleared the path for my improvement. None disempowered me, but rather helped me tap into everything I saw in them and aspired to become. They were/are so very humble; I guess that quality helps discern who's the genuine item and who's the 'sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.'

galen said...



McCob, ps: Come to think of it, sometimes there were leaders/teachers who weren't all that humble, who were actually proud; they knew their value and worth and stood in that truth. Teresa of Avila once said, "Humility is truth." I guess it's all about the proof in the pudding, about what they're bringing, and I bet each was flawed and sometimes uncertain.

Ray B. said...

Galen & McCob, you would probably like what Elaine Pagels said in "The Gnostic Gospels". She noted that, based on translations of then-newly-found scriptures, Gnostic Christians viewed 'leadership' differently. They had no ordained priesthood, and preferred to meet in ordinary locations rather than ornate churches. Church sermons were given on a rotating basis from the membership, rather than from 'a' priest. Oh, and women were equal members...

This 'behavior' got them persecuted, killed, and nearly stamped-out by early "Christian" Church leaders (and later Roman Emperors), of course...

Best Wishes,

Galen, Ray,...one thing I get out of coming to Visible's website is that the comments section is a good place to vent. Usually, I am very emotional,i.e. bitter, when I post in here so there is some hyperbole in my writing.

What makes me bitter more than the arrogance and the injustice is the lying. If those motherfuckers would just stand in front of us all and state, "We are stronger and smarter than you therefore we are going to take whatever we want and you just have to go along with us or else." Then I would at least respect them. But they don't. They run scams. They lie and pretend. They arm farmboys and stick them en masse into ferocious battles where there are no winners only survivors. Propaganda is now a high art form. And for what? so, they can live in a big house and laud over us as if they were Gods! (Gods live forever but they turn to dust just as the rest of us! stupid fucks!) And I see smart, accomplished, and otherwise good people just going along with it when they should know better. Very frustrating! Very hard to have any respect for my fellow humans. Which is bad because if I don't respect my fellow man then to some degree I don't respect myself.

However, my intuition does tell me there is a Divine Plan. Somehow, down the line, this will all come out in the wash. But faith requires courage and courage requires strength and I am not feeling too strong at the moment. If being overwhelmed with disgust was strength I might be the strongest man in the world.

I sometimes wonder if I am in Hell; literal Hell. Consider anything can happen to anybody at any moment no matter how shocking, grotesque, horrific or painful. We all lose our health eventually if we had it in the first place. We all lose loved ones. Our society is inundated with cancer, car accidents, crime, corruption, violence and conflict.

"Born is lust, turn to dust." Stephen King

I enjoy reading your(Ray, Galen) stuff and examining your take on things.

Ray, the Gnostics were hunted down and eradicated. The library at Alexandria was burned. Both acts performed by followers of Jesus if one were to believe the historical record.

Ray, McCob, ya know, sometimes we just throw something out there and it takes on a life of its own. The thread shows its fibers, its strengths and weaknesses, even its very components.

Anyway, in that Brandon Smith quote I posted above I think Brandon was actually saying what we three are attempting to arrive at. In referring to worthwhile leaders/teachers he says they're:

"nothing unless they can motivate individuals to eventually take their own initiative without orders."

Seems Brandon is just trying to get all of us to tap into an inner leader. Maybe that's just about being the leader of our own life, but certainly we all influence each other. I don't think the quote in any way alluded to being a follower, especially of anyone operating out of integrity. For me, it's just about having seniority in my own space, free to act to make my own decisions. But if the house is on fire and I see the door first, I might scream, "Follow me!!" Would not anyone with a heart. Semantics (and personal lens) may have some part in this.

Thanks for your honesty, McCob. I go to similar emotional places. And at least we try to break it down. It usually goes okay unless I let myself down, you know, the breaking of one's agreements with one's self. The whole thing may be about managing various addictions; do we serve them or do we serve evolution? The choice of choices, and I have it always in front of me. A good thing we don't have to be perfect to be loved.

Galen, I realize I get a little silly. There are no absolutes. But as far as politics goes I believe politics is the Devil's game.

In 2004 I got this notion that the official story of 911 was hogwash. I started researching the event mostly from the civil engineering perspective. One day about 6 yrs ago I came across Visible. I am prone to depression and that condition has hurt me over the years. I found a therapy that works as far as easing my symptoms: Reading Visible and ranting in his comment section. This led me to reading religious and philosophical texts. I swear my malady has abated. However, I still get the occasional bad day; dark night of the soul. I know, or at least strongly suspect, that there is a Divine Order and somehow justice will be served. I am due for a portion of this justice, myself. And I will be happy to take it if it cleanses my soul.

I need all the friends I can get. I do appreciate you taking the time to respond to my rants.

Hope all is well where you are.

First, I wanted to do a review (which I rarely do) of a movie I just watched, since some part of me has been bugging me to do so. Other stuff shortly...

I just watched "Edge of Tomorrow," with Tom Cruise on cable. Without blowing the plot, it is an unlooked-for marriage of "Groundhog Day" and "Starship Troopers" (the original SF novel by Heinlein, NOT the three movies loosely-themed on the novel). Since I deem "Groundhog Day" to be one of the best time-travel/reincarnation/soul-forming flicks ever made (for those with the eyes to see), this was cool. And, "Starship Troopers" is one of the best military SF novels ever written, with plenty of deep stuff in addition to the action.

When I first saw the trailers to "Cowboys and Aliens", I thought 'no way that combo will ever work'. Watching that movie, it was a brilliant, seamless blending of the two genres. Kudos.

Just into "Edge of Tomorrow," when I realized its two 'roots', I again thought 'no way that combo will ever work'. Watching the movie, it was also a brilliant, seamless blending of the two genres. Again, Kudos.

Since I was aware of Vis' experiences and position on Scientology, I tried to keep that in mind due to the movie obviously being hand-tooled around Cruise. If there were references/slants, I did not pick them up. Of course, I do not have the 'experience' to pick them up, not having been a Scientologist. If there had been subtle "Star Trek" or "Star Wars" puns or references, I would have probably picked-up on them... (grin)

The movie is violent. Very violent. I cannot imagine seeing it in a theater. It would be sense-and-emotion numbing.

That said, it is NOT a slasher flick. It is NOT a horror flick. It is NOT even a war flick. It IS a soldier flick. Bear that 'emphasis' in mind. I am proud of the plot writers and directors for not going for the former.

The computer-generated imagery is top-notch, especially for the D-Day scenes. (One of the aircraft I helped design is in those scenes.) Toward the end of the movie, there are 'superfluous' CGI-packed scenes which are obviously only there to exhibit Cruise as an action hero. Think of the LOTR III war-elephant scenes...

I will probably not see this movie again. There is too much sadness along the way. Again, that said, there were several 'pieces of wisdom' that are now resting securely in my back pocket...

Best Wishes,
Ray B.


P.S. One possibly-NWO insertion at the very end of the movie had a television announcer talking about Chinese and Russian troops rolling over Europe. This was not needed for the plot, so I do wonder 'why' it was there...

I can think of 4 absolutes immediately.
All 4 are 100% iron clad guaranteed for 100% of living beings.

1) birth
2) aging
3) disease
4) death

No one, from the gigantic Lord Brahma to an insignificant ant escapes even one of these four.

Ray, here is something you will likely appreciate. This exemplifies your descriptions of fairies, etc. as often being gigantic beings.

McCob, I do hear the pain you carry as a result of being 'awake'. I imagine most of the readers here bear a version of this...

When Higher Self does 'Clearing' on me, there is always a lot of pain to be felt-through in the Third-Eye area. Since this area, when healthy, always broadcasts/receives "We Are One", you can imagine how much 'dysfunction' there is at this 'level' in today's world. (It must have been marvelous to broadcast/receive at this 'level' in some Golden Age.)

Similarly, the Throat area broadcasts/receives "We Are Important" and the Heart area broadcasts/receives "We Are". Pain also builds-up in those areas quickly.

McCob, I just wanted to 'put out' that the depth of the "bitterness" you feel is likely a build-up of the pain-environment in the above areas. It is not, at its base, yours (except in some God-sense).

If you can dredge-up this pain and feel it through, the deep-bitterness will gradually-fade into sadness or such. In other words, you will no longer be 'in react' due to a full-backpack of old pain. I used to have a full-backpack (army-brat and engineering), so it can be done...

It is an axiom in (real) psychology that depression covers anger. (Anger, in turn, covers pain.) Anger turns into depression when there is no 'way out' seen from an 'unbearable' situation. In this sense, anger is our 'ally' as it is one-step above depression.

It is 'easy', once you have had the experience of Greater Us and the Otherwhere, to summon-up the anger that you are currently Not in that 'state'. You have the two 'states' to experientially compare. In this case, anger is the 'fuel' or Chi/Ki/Prana to keep you from 'going asleep' and accepting the lower consciousness around you.

In the absence of such experiential 'data', I often advise people to think about the 'Second Level of Forgetting'. Practice of this kind of 'yokes' the anger to a purpose, even if I do not consciously know what I need to know. Useful Chi. I still ask the ineffable to bring out what I have forgotten so deeply. New knowledge and experience do come, when 'asked for'.

I better stop now. STEP AWAY from the computer... (grin)

Best Wishes,
Ray B.

Thanks for the clip. Will look at it shortly.

Respectfully, I disagree with the above. I personally 'ran into' one guy in India who all the local villagers, even the most elderly who had 'grown up' with him, swore had always been at an 'optimum' age. He seemed to be about thirty years old. Quite pleasant. So, either the whole village was lying or he was proof that something else exists.

I have always had this 'knowing' that something exists beyond our societal paradigm around aging, disease, and death. I suspect this paradigm was 'manufactured' by the dark side. This includes Any religion that bows to this paradigm. (Sorry.)

When I first heard of 'ascension' (in the sense of open to anybody, not just Jesus or whomever), I had this incredible excitement, recognition, and 'Yes' come out of some deep spot inside me. Whether I had just had some 'Second Level of Forgetting' moment of remembering, I do not know. But, it was real and unbidden. So, I am going with that. Time will tell...

Best Wishes,

Nice clip! Thanks! The whole Megalithic Culture of Europe has similar 'lore' to that video.

When I was visiting the U.K., I 'saw' several openings or portals to other realms. One was 'Old' because it had been opened at surface level at the top of Glastenbury Tor, a 'sacred hill' in England. Today, the surface level at the top of Glastenbury Tor is about thirty feet or so below where the portal is, due to erosion. In other words, the portal 'floats' above the hill. Without 'otherwhere' vision, you would never know it was there...

Another was at the Hurler Stone Circles in England. That was a portal that 'went active' right in front of me, and stays active to this day. (My posting above that one might also be interesting to woo-woo folks. Blast from the past!)

There was another portal in Ireland that 'went active', sucked up some long-ago-dead 'humans', and closed again. Burial cairns all around.

It will be interesting to see if I have 'flings' to other woo-woo places in the future...

Best Wishes,

Ray B,

Yes, Groundhog Day is one of the best films. I went to the movies and watched it three times when it came out. I have never done that before or since, so it struck a chord with me mystically. This was around the time I became a seeker.

To me it teaches the lesson of utmost importance: "Keeping it real".

(An old favorite note on leadership, sparked up in my brain by the excellent discourse here.)

Btw
1.2.3.4.
According to many sources, the body of the Blessed Mother of Christ, who passed on when the fullnes of her love was allowed to enflame without limits, put forth an overwhelming celestial scent, and her place of burial was attended by creatures. After several days the creatures left and the scent diminished. The tomb was opened and she was gone, resulting in the teachings re: her assumption.

One excellent source: online now I think)
Read from the Mystical Visions of Mary of Agreda, a Spanish Nun whose body is today incorrupt, Mary of Agreda's Body has remained Incorrupt for more than 340 years. She is buried in glass. See pics...

She wrote re: Christ's mother----

She was physically in perfect balance her entire life and filled with humility and love, was in perfect harmony with the Creator and hence called the Mystical City of God. But since finding Visible's writings, I now like to say the mystical city of the ineffable ...

via Homer, It's absolutely absolute that there are no absolutes. I stand corrected.

Katy, I had a beautiful Collie that when he died a emitted the most beautiful scent I ever smelled. He looked really ragged at the end but after he died he looked young,beautiful and at peace.

Ray, I am a cliche. (that rhymes!) Just another kid from a broken home. That's where the bitterness comes from. What I get form the state of the world is disgust.

Ray, as compared to that tale of a man who never ages, it's milk and honey.

Your attempt to defy/overrule the divine laws of Mother Nature via the power of imagination, delusion or even sincere belief.
Now THAT'S inscrutable!

It could be worse though.

And to keep it all in perspective, compare the above comments-- featherlight, open--
With today's news that college students at Michigan are asked to sign a pledge they will not use these words:

"Words declared unacceptable through the campaign include “crazy,” “insane,” “retarded,” “gay,” “tranny,” “gypped,” “illegal alien,” “fag,” “ghetto” and “raghead.” Phrases such as “I want to die” ..... are also verboten.
."

Yes on another side of the world folks are being sprayed with concrete...

So, you're calling the villagers liars...

"Your attempt to defy/overrule the divine laws of Mother Nature via the power of imagination, delusion or even sincere belief.
Now THAT'S inscrutable!"

I prefer to think of it as "the divine laws of Mother Nature" were 'written' by those without our best interests in mind. I don't think that 'those' are Natural at all, except for those who have 'brought into it' and therefore manifest it. We will probably always disagree on this...

"It could be worse though.

Very good! (grin)

Ray, sophistry will get you nowhere.

I'm saying the villagers were exaggerating, albeit innocently.
This whole subject is an exercise in nonsense.

Everyone ages, that's all I said. How fast or how remarkably or how elegantly is beside the point.

"One who sees does not defy or override Divine law, but is not afraid to surf on the same board even when the edge appears impossible..."

Katy, that's mumbo jumbo.

via Homer, You are a gadfly. Katy's comment was not mumbo-jumbo. Rather, it was poetry.

Sophistry gets plenty of people plenty of places. Without sophistry the NWO could not obfuscate the events of 911. Sophistry is a powerful tool for manipulation of the masses.

Katy, nothing more beautiful than a barefoot girl dancing in the moonlight. I like to dance, too, and I am pretty good at it. Sometimes I will put on Chuck Berry and Gavotte like a drunken uncle at a wedding reception. Nothing more important than dancing.

Ahhhhhh

The gentle balm of kind words
Is itself poetry...




...
I dream of you walking at night along the streams of the country of my birth, warm blooms and the nightsongs of birds opening around you as you walk.
....

II,.....
A man lost in the woods in the dark, I stood
still and said nothing. And then there rose in me,
like the earth's empowering brew rising
in root and branch, the words of a dream of you
I did not know I had dreamed. I was a wanderer
who feels the solace of his native land
under his feet again and moving in his blood.
I went on, blind and faithful. Where I stepped
my track was there to steady me. It was no abyss
that lay before me, but only the level ground....


Or


Even


I arise from dreams of thee
In the first sweet sleep of night,
When the winds are breathing low,
And the stars are shining bright.
I arise from dreams of thee,
And a spirit in my feet
Has led me-who knows how? -
To thy chamber-window, sweet!

The wandering airs they faint
On the dark, the silent stream,-
The champak odors fail
Like sweet thoughts in a dream;
The nightingale's complaint,
It dies upon her heart,
As I must die on thine,
O, beloved as thou art!

O, lift me from the grass!
I die, I faint, I fail!
Let thy love in kisses rain
On my lips and eyelids pale.

My cheek is cold and white, alas!
My heart beats loud and fast:
Oh! press it close to thine again,
Where it will break at last!



...



Our cravings
for each other, that could result in such flight---

A hint? a clue;
A puppy being trained...

We long for the ineffable.
