You are brave to wade into these waters. The many roots of our divisions go back a very long time and religion is obviously part of that.
The very best PSYOPS - the one's with staying power - always include some truths in with the lies. It occurred to me several years ago, while teasing out the many layers of our manufactured reality-show, that religion and philosophy would also have been hijacked by hidden agendas. These are harder to highlight and pull apart given the interpretive nature of them, and the fusing of those interpretations into identity.
Being part of the 'chosen' ones is a perfect example. I've always found the notion of God favoring a certain group dangerous and offensive. It makes no sense. (unless it serves a hidden agenda of division of course.)
The deep difficulty in sussing these things out is that with religion, faith is involved. And faith has two clear aspects: a primary aspect which is intuitive, visceral, and connects us to a direct-knowing. In its primary expression then, it can not be argued with.
Then a secondary aspect - Religion - any religion which is the formalized expression of faith, and so subject to institutional weaknesses and corruption. This secondary aspect can be looked at objectively and argued about. (Would anyone suggest the Catholic church is without corruption?)
Because many fuse these two aspects, and don't tease them apart, criticism of the secondary aspect - the institution - feels like an attack on the primary aspect or intuitive piece. Understandably, it's not welcome. Criticizing the religion amounts to "How dare you criticize my faith?"
When Religious organizations become the portal to faith, it places the the cart before the horse. Becomes very difficult for the faithful to separate them out later.
On the other hand, Intuitive knowing of a larger Source with which we are directly connected and in communication with, when followed by a chosen expression, puts the horse in front of the cart. Very different.
I sketched out an outline for a book on this idea - Freeing God from Religion - many years back when I was taking religious studies classes. It cleaned up so much confusion for me.
Oh Kathleen, so happy to find out we have this other shared interest! And I've also sketched out (and written some big chunks of) a book I called A House for the Soul in the Land Beyond Faith. I look at faith as making up your mind about something in advance of knowledge or experience, so we might be talking about different things using the same word. My only dogma, or belief I won't raise to question, is that I'm no better than anyone else. Everything else, including the 'reality' of the world and myself as a separate mind in a separate body perceiving it, is up to question.
My daily practice, for going on 20 years, is the meditations of A Course in Miracles which involve exercises in forgiveness and seeing other people from their own POV, and then finding out whether that changes your experience. I can't kid myself that events are random. I'm not looking to convince anyone else, but once I give up on my superiority to protect me, I find that I don't need protection.
Yes I am happy to discover this is common, as well. And I like your only dogma - I fully agree.
I'm very familiar with the CIM work - went to a group for several years and also studied on my own. So many gems in that book.
It's so true - we don't need any protection, do we? We are what we are, and while I accept accounts of 'faith' as an internal knowing, how we understand that does change as we deepen into it. (Assuming we don't hem ourselves in, of course.)
Those who have been the Elites controlling society began doing so by first centralizing GOD and MONEY. Centralization is home to corruption. Hierarchy is the skeletal frame work for it.
God can only be found inside each person if they have the courage to look. Each human life is sacred, this human experience is a focal point of attention within infinite consciousness.
I like the way you teased out the ideas of primary and secondary aspects.
"Then a secondary aspect - Religion - any religion which is the formalized expression of faith, and so subject to institutional weaknesses and corruption. " My way of saying that (yours is much, much better) is that if it's institutionalized it's dehumanied.
Nefahotep also formulated the idea extremely well in his comment.
In her apology to the conservative stack, Wolf denies by inference the reality of the psyop of even 40 years ago.
With having had my face slapped hard by covidian madness, I began to open my eyes beyond where I had previously opened them to the obvious malfeasance of the government and media of the last century and began looking more deeply at the psyop practices that have been going on for centuries/millenia.
Your look at the Bible is helpful to me, as I am not a deep Biblical scholar. Thank you. I have some understanding of the level and scope of evil that was extant in the Greek and Roman cultures from indirect sources. Your points elaborate and confirm them.
Tagging something as evil as the reason for evil is very much a cop-out from taking personal responsibility for fixing the problem. It really comes down to: We have met the enemy and the enemy us us. I have met the enemy, the enemy is me. If I am able to tag mother-weffers, or Khazarian mafia, or Rhadanite bankers, Deep State operations or whoever as the source of evil. I can sigh with relief, dust off my hands, and say 'Nothing to see here, folks,' all the while projecting my shadow. LoL! Just like what the 'evil' ones do.
If I am to see a peaceful, joyful world, killing the bad guys is not going to do it. That is exactly the same rationale being used by the evil ones to kill us poor, humble trusting 'good' guys. If I am going to see a peaceful joyful world, then it is my responsibility to bring peace and joy into my heart and soul and mind. Once I have done that, and that is an amazing challenge, then I can embody them and create peace and joy in my immediate world. Blaming evil is a great psyop keeping us trapped in killing the enemy without.
Thank you for that, Guy. You know my definition of socio-spirituality: looking with open eyes at the reality in the world while questioning the reality of the world. So yes, going back and forth in those two realms is so important. I'm glad you have a practice that keeps you grounded and allows you to see without fear.
I don't believe in evil people but I do see behaviors as evil when they cause others to cause suffering. When we stop people from having the ability to do evil, by taking away their power, we do it for them as much as for everyone else.
Yes, evil is the product of behaviour. The Buddha had an interesting take on this, that 'bad' behaviour comes from the untamed energies of greed (not just for money), anger/hatred and boredom.
I am not sure that the action of taking away a person's 'evil' power is a long term strategy that can work. It is sometimes required as a temporary step in order to stop an immediate threat, at the personal or even social level. The challenge is that those powerful enough to take away another's power of evil almost invariably delude themselves that their power is by default benevolent. And bingo bango bongo, we are in the hamster wheel of power being used inappropriately.
Is this 'kumbaya' thinking? Nope. Standing up peacefully to evil is an act of courage that far surpasses the courage required to get angry and violently take away another's power.
An interesting conundrum. The violence of history is a pretty blunt lesson, though: violence does not stop violence.
We can blame the Khazarian mafia, or whoever, for their successful psyop processes to keep people killing each other to the benefit of the KM. Solution is negate the effectiveness of the psyop itself because killing the psyoperators is at best temporary. The psyop is stopped when people are not reacting to it. And that has nothing to do with violence or taking away another's power. It is the opposite, in fact, by claiming our personal power enough to stop allowing ourselves to be psyopped into being violent! And the easiest psyop in the world is to demonstrate the evil of this or that other, which is why it has been used for millennia. (I was one of those evil 'things' in Canada's unsafe evil other psyop.)
I think you might be misunderstanding what I mean by 'taking away a person's power for evil', if I can rephrase it. We live under an economic system that holds housing hostage in order to force us to work for the bankers. That, ipso facto, makes the bankers our rulers. If communities are the default owners of the houses when they change owners, by having the exclusive right to issue the credit AND the currency that repays the debt, our labor serves the community.
I don't really care who the bankers are, I care about changing the system. If that system, however, is protected by a religion that says the right to rule over others is divinely granted, that religion has to be challenged. If your religion is the belief that God gave you the right to rule over me, do I need to respect your religion? You can't defend a religion of domination and also defend the people it dominates--we have to choose.
I know that's not what you're saying, Guy, just some thoughts it brought up for me.
Nail on the Head! One important part of the way the social, governmental and economic structure operates is through the Aloidal Trust system. Pope Vicarus issued a Papal Bull in 1455 that stated that literally EVERYTHING on earth belonged to him, the Pope. This included ALL peoples everywhere. Today this Aloidal Trust system is like an onion skin of trusts inside of trust inside of trusts. In the US, there is the Depository Trust Corp. privately owned by Cede & Company. They apparently own YOUR birth certificate, because you are considered collateral against the debt.
Interesting? This is one of the reasons why these Elite Parasites think they can just cull us.
This is the Aloidal Trust System you mention. Is it possible to get specific details on the route of the trusts? If there is a way, then the average individual can work towards nullifying this onion skin of control.
I see. The words of your sentence are all power-based words and so is very hard to misunderstand on the surface. Your elaboration on what you wanted to say describes the evolution of society away from a power structured one. Interesting to see how that 'power' language came in to colour your argument back into the very structure you are wanting to see collapse. The change you are describing comes, ultimately, from the evolution of consciousness, for lack of a better word, away from outsourcing our power to another one, or even THE ONE, to lord over us.
Religion would not have successfully taken it onto themselves to be THE ONE if the outsourcing of our power had not occurred in the beginning. That the 'powerful' wanted to be seen as saviours does not confer power on to them until we give it. And, omg, did we give it away! [Headshake and smile.]
The cabal believe that they can take what they want because they have, with hubris and delusion, misunderstood that their power is simply a manifestation of the outsourcing of our power. That outsourcing was a choice, unconsciously made most of the time, of course. The evolution of consciousness is simply how we become aware of how we unconsciously gave away our power to choose and now choose to take it back. And those are the core teachings of Buddha, Christ, Krishna , etc.
The multi-century multi-faceted propaganda, history-erasing double-speaking, double processed cheese ant-burger psyops with extra gmo glyphosate pickles and onion rings on the side, are the wizards' silver screens covered in jewels and flashing multi-coloured lasers or LEDs.
It has worked for a long time. Now pride cometh before the fall and the cabal have let us, by 'accident' born of hubris, see behind the silver curtain. Lots of us knew it was a curtain before the dawning of the covid generation and now many more see it. And those who saw it in the TBC (time before covid) now see how much more 'deep' and even pervasive is the 'evil' energising the machinations of the cabal attempt to mechanise humans.
It seems to me that Wolf is, for example, in the 'OMG I didn't know there was a curtain' camp and so her eyes haven't adjusted yet to the darkness she is beginning to see and is a confused, albeit mostly effective, warrior still trusting 'good' power to fix 'bad' power. Pointing to 'evil' and 'satan', however defined, displays that her foundation is still in the power structure that enlivened the cabal in the first place. For her it seems that she has seen our true enemy and that the enemy is still out there.
Sorry, Wolf. I like you. It is when we have seen that the enemy is us, not them, that the enemy is me, not you, that we can claim the power that is our birthright as children of god, and stop for our own good gmo and fake meat digitised emf power structures.
"double processed cheese ant-burger psyops with extra gmo glyphosate pickles and onion rings on the side' ... nicely articulated and well thought out, Guy! I don't disagree. Interesting analogy on Wolf. I like her too.
You clearly get it. I wish I could give you 10 stars for that. The evolution of consciousness is at THE center of it!
Also, society itself will always reflect the overall awareness of its constituents. Ideally, I really don't want to destroy anything, just apply the true power of Sovereignty to nullify the existing structure; there by replacing it with what works more harmoniously for the Individual. It will take all of us to peacefully work out the details.
Wasn't it G.K. Chesterton who was asked by a newspaper, "What is the greatest problem in the world?" who answered, "Me"? The only persons we can change are ourselves and, I don't know about you, but I find that VERY hard indeed, kind of a life's work.
I look forward to that. I'm a Roman Catholic. One of our best sacraments is Reconciliation or Confession. We must state exactly how we have sinned against God or others. It's grindingly painful to say to another how awful we are in our thoughts, if not our actions.
My son, an agnostic, said that he and his business partner, also non-religious, were discussing that it seemed to them that religious people were the most sane people. I think it is because acknowledging our dark side and promising to do all we can to avoid those sins is therapeutic. Realizing that we need God's grace to be good is also humbling.
It recently (slow learner) dawned on me that everyone is God's favorite child and we better not deliberately do harm to another "or else!"
Thoughts from an 80+-year old who is still trying to get it right.
Good discussion. Time for us all to grow up philosophically, spiritually, morally, culturally and psychologically. Maybe even politically? The entire scheme of power is claiming some BS overarching claim to power which is in any even superficial analysis a PROJECTION. Furthermore it becomes a justification for certain actions. Does anyone have any concept of the mass murder and campaigns carried out against other humans because they were of the conceived “other”? Ask the Native Americans among others - a 500 year genocidal slaughter in the name of the “Christian” religion. The current wave of hypocrisy and Satanic deeds is nothing new. We got a long way to go baby. “Civilized” - ah, no.
As a second note the concept of a “Nation State” as some kind of sacred entity is an excuse for instituting an ongoing bureaucracy which becomes what we now call the deep state. It is all a scam.
The results are the current totalitarianism with the attendant Covid event, the associated “died suddenly” epidemic and massive fertility and pregnancy failures - not to mention the small matter of the banking collapse. And the forced enslavement of our kids through inappropriate sexualization with the transgender outrage.
We are now in an extinction level event where we are advanced, like it or not, into a fight for survival of our kids.
Think it is not all connected? Think again. Ask those world government boys and girls at the World Economic Forum.
And then watch “The Thin Red Line”. Think the Nation State doesn’t hate each and every one of us?
Well-written, Kathleen, I agree with everything except one that's important. The Bible turned history inside-out and made the villains into heroes but also the heroes into villains. Don't accept the literal demonization of the anti-imperialists as Satan. They were termed demon-possessed because, even when children were tortured and burned alive, they wouldn't say that Caesar was God--and Caesar is who the NT means by the word Lord or God. In fact, those children seemed unbothered by the flames, as reported by Josephus who hated the zealots with a passion. Let's say that what he said was true and couldn't be denied because coliseums full of people were witnessing this imperviousness to pain and lack of fear of death, and even perhaps a belief that resurrection was inclusive so death had no power. That highly visible demonstration would end the power of the Roman empire because fear of death and suffering was all they had. So Josephus twists it to say it's the power of the devil that makes them safe no matter how the empire tortures them.
Who's really doing the work of the devil here, if there was such a thing? And did the zealots know something that we've lost, along with their version of Judaism? Is, perhaps, pain NOT the strongest force in the world? That's the dangerous theology that the Bible was written to bury in psyops.
I agree with that. It fits with my sense that the negativity Gods (satanic forces) like the positivity Gods (angels, Christian deities) are projections of our own positive and negative forces, qualities, subconscious, etc. To me satanic forces are what we become when we lie to ourselves and others. Cultures become satanic when they are riddled with lies and become devolutionary = cultures of death. But yes there are a whole lot of controlling forces in the Christian ( church & state) philosophies. This struck me at about age five. I quit Sunday school, lol. I like your take on these issues.
Interesting article overall. That said, I only half agree with it. There is indeed an evil, demonic influence in our world that has been causing havoc for thousands of years. But it's neither Pagan nor Abrahamic per se, but rather it is the demonic patriarchy overall, and all of what it has brought forth: war, genocide, ecocide, gynocide, child abuse, and so on. If that's not human sacrifice writ large, I really don't know what is. Both the Abrahamic as well as the "heathen" flavors of this paradigm are to blame, as are the secular neoliberal technocratic flavors as well. And it all started 7000 to 10000 years ago, when men took over after displacing Women from power.
Patriarchy is not timeless, rather, it has a beginning, and it has an end. And the end is coming very soon, God willing and it's violent lashing out now is because it is in its final death throes.
(The following is in response to her response that women can be just as evil/sadistic as men:)
Of course, to be fair, they [Women] too were all (or nearly all) born and raised in the very same evil system of patriarchy (or kyriarchy, or the "dominator model", if you prefer). Simply genderswapping the same evil system (that is, "reverse patriarchy") would be just as evil IMHO, while genuine Matriarchy is a fundamentally different paradigm altogether.
But yes, there would always need to be safeguards against evil and sadism in any system regardless of gender IMHO. Just like how a democracy without a good constitution devolves to mob rule (ochlocracy), which is just as bad as oligarchy, tyranny, or autocracy.
OK, on a lighter note, time for a joke:
In the beginning, Yahweh said, "Let there be light!" His wife Asherah said, "Say please!" LOL
(And yes, Yahweh originally did have a wife, Asherah, before she was edited out. Look it up)
Is the adjective 'demonic' necessary or even useful to the point that patriarchy, or any -archy (from the Greek word for rulers) is the problem, whether religion validates it or not? It seems like 'demonic' implies that there's a supernatural force on the side of the rulers and if we try to break free, who knows what power they'll unleash! I think it serves them by making us afraid, rather than seeing them as humans who found that we'll allow them to control us, nyah-ha-ha!
I'm picturing a moustache-twirling cartoon villain, not some overarching (there are those archons again) supervillain who can order nature to do His Will (without geo-engineering.)
I certainly agree with you that the feminine, which I believe is our identity as One Self, is returning, which is why I talk about a feminine economy that places children at the center.
And I don't know if you were reading when I talk about Hilary and her ilk as 'patriarchs without penises.' I've had readers challenge me on the word matriarch, which means a female ruler. I think that matrilineal property succession would solve the problems of homelessness. But she suggested matrix as a form of matri- that I didn't realize was related when I did this video on Patriarchal Pyramid or Matriarchal Matrix? on Vandana Shiva: https://youtu.be/dtID5Ho_OBY
To be honest, I would say I am of two minds about the whole demonic thing, but the forces of evil ruling this world, and their energies, do seem to lean supernatural to some degree.
As for Matriarchy, I believe that some degree of actual Matriarchy (though not reverse patriarchy!) would be a necessary answer to the question of "what's to stop men from just taking over again?"
For more information, see some of my inspirations: Guru Rasa Von Werder and William Bond. And also others like Riane Eisler, Merlin Stone, and Buckminster Fuller as well:
Hi, Paul. Thanks for sending this. The first two premises in the model I agree with completely: Consciousness exists. Nothing else does. I'd rephrase his third premise that consciousness was bored and needed to introduce novelty, but we're thinking along the same lines.
Here's my version: Consciousness, aka God, exists. Nothing else does. One is the loneliest number and God wanted to share delight. So God put a little space between Himself and God's creativity--the womb of God, God's Woman. That's us, in our true form, forever joined with God and extending love and imagination to delight God and OurSelf.
But somewhere in eternity (which can't coexist with Time, as infinity can't coexist with Space) we got this crazy idea that we could do something without God. We could kill ourSelf. Nuts, right? But instead of realizing how silly it was, we thought we'd done something against God and put ourSelf into this horrible nightmare where we projected our guilt onto 7 billion figures who fought among themselves in the dream. But we weren't really alone and God wasn't really mad, He just laughed. And sent His voice into the dream to remind us that we were loved and we were God, and time and space became a pocket in reality, a padded cell where we couldn't hurt ourselves until we came to our senses, err... our true Mind, and made this such a great dream that we weren't afraid to wake up.
That's my alternative but I'm so glad he's presenting his version and you showed it to me!
My pleasure. I grew up in a Deaf family so was never influenced by organised religion. I have found God and Jesus or rather they made their presence known to me. My mind has expanded these years since UK Brexit. I speed read hundreds of substacks, papers etc every week and love the comments. There are more of us than we know. Not afraid of death. Will never submit to the evil ones.
This is similar to the cosmological genesis you find in Indian Samkhya Philosophy. Paraphrased: everything was perfect, except for a tiny itch that couldn't be satisfied. Perhaps that itch was boredom, one of Buddha's three fires as the source of suffering.
I have to admit, I just discovered the comments section on this article, albeit late.
For me the soul exists separately from consciousness.
Consciousness is the repository of all memories, thoughts and feelings that one accumulates in their life.
Many who have had near death experiences will describe witnessing their life as a third party observer, separate from the experiences. This is also described by those transitioning to the afterlife on their death bed, sort of a shedding of the experiences they have had.
It's also worth noting that the singularity/transhuman crew believe they can live forever now that they think they have the technology to codify and store 'consciousness' and transfer it indefinitely to sythentic/biologically grown space suits (bodies) so they can live forever. Have they ever considered that once they die the first time, their soul leaves the building? So what are they preserving? The effects of living in this 3rd dimension?
We're placing too much emphasis on the thoughts, feelings and memories. It's possible those are all stored somewhere anyway. The idea that pure consciousness is just non-attached being is probably the perfect description of the soul, separate from it's experiences but able to access and relive them all whenever it would like?
Thanks for this Tereza. Returning to a spiritual blackmail agreement with a psychopathic desert demon seems like a terrible way out of this situation, yet here we are. I'm glad you have faith in Naomi, because to me she seems to have positioned herself perfectly to lead us into this fun new Judeo-Christian Conservative-backlash regime we are careening towards.
Isaac! I just saw you're awake there in Australia since you liked my Inflation post. I just put out a YT on What a Smoke & Wombat Holes. I'll add the Substack in the morning. Here it is: https://youtu.be/rCxRb7aKuzw.
Your stack is delightful, Isaac, and right (I first wrote write) up my conspiracy alley. I love the way you talk about religion as superiority (obvi) and I've always had a soft spot for wombats. Who could not? They have the best name ever, although platypus is darn good too. For others, here's a quote from your intro:
"Well, wombat burrows are epic. They might seem simple enough, with often a single entrance, but they can branch out into numerous interlinked tunnels, stretching up to 200 metres in length.
"This is the model for what I want to do. To take a subject that seems simple enough on the surface, but to burrow in deep to find the interconnected system that lies underneath. Because everything is connected, if only you dig deep enough."
Subscribed! And your statement about careening into a J-C Conservative-backlash regime seems spot on. But I didn't get the psychopathic desert demon, who's that?
Thankyou for those kind words Tereza, I appreciate it! I had an acute wombat obsession when I was younger, so have managed to transform that into my main creative outlet. Wombat vids and memes help to take the edge off when the conspiracy digressions get a little too deep.
The "psychopathic desert demon" is my unpopular and perhaps slightly unkind shorthand for Yahweh, who it seems to me is the greatest spiritual opportunist in history in his/their success in masquerading for several millenia as the real Creator God.
Very happy to have found your Stack: just about to dig further into "Jesus is the OG Psy-ops", which is a spicy premise that even I haven't been brave enough to openly propose yet.
That could be read 'a cute wombat obsession'. I haven't yet caught the vids and memes but looking forward to them and feel free to post links.
Wholesome and conspiracy are actually natural partners. Healing is making whole, taking something torn or divisive and making it One. Conspiracy means to breath together. So I think you're on to something.
When I get around to Abraham, I'll present why I think 'Lord' in the OT represents the Pharaoh, in the same way that it represents Caesar in the NT, as you just read (thanks for the like!) Looking forward to your thoughts on it.
How did you keep a straight face when you said "The Horned One"? I can't help but laugh at that term. I know this is a serious topic, as no one likes to be fooled in the name of empire. It's interesting now to see people under attack on many fronts since covid expressing their faith where before no one would even dare mention God. It's the perfect time for a real logical discussion. Thank you for sharing your research and knowledge. Definitely time for moral intellect to dispel the empirical religions.
It wasn't easy! Conspiracy Sarah's piece was so hilariously tongue-in-cheek and over the top that I had to include it. The remainder of her essay I highly recommend, which goes deep into more of the psyops for sunscreen and against sun exposure and in geo-engineering. She's brilliant!
Thanks for your kind words! And yes, let's replace imperial religions with empirical ones.
This is possibly the best analysis of overall religious social perception that I have ever read. It's excellent. The thing I have noticed in true ancient writings, that is Egyptian and Sanskrit, there's a lot of symbolism in both the writing itself and the interpretation. The ancient mind didn't think the way we think today. The symbolism was there to give the seekers of truth a method to find it, unique to each individual. Underlying meaning can only be found on the inside, that is where the true self is. What we have today, is litteralism and fundamentalism. People live in the world they create, they look but they don't see. They follow blindly and don't hear the inner self while taking action that is poisonous to civilization.
When we are true to the inner self, we can live life in a truthful way, that bestows wisdom.
Individualized Sovereignty is the best medicine for society.
Excellent points, Nefahotep. Do you have any links for Egyptian or Sanskrit ancient writings? I'm curious to see how they compare.
And, as always, I would only amend that to Community Sovereignty. To live, we depend on the products of other people's labor and shared resources. Money gives us individual sovereignty and the ability to take those while giving nothing in return. A system of reciprocity that includes producers and consumers in close proximity is the only way to replace a system of empire.

For better understanding, many words in ancient Egyptian were of multiple meanings. The context of the usage was as important as the symbolism itself. Many people may not get the same meaning as I do. This is because of my exposure to Vedic symbolism. The the comments I left for you in [brackets] gives you some idea of what I mean. Meaning will always be an internal affair.
That's truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with me, Nefahotep. It's not a tradition I have any familiarity with. What's the era of this, in terms of dates or Pharaohs?
This may be a portion of the Book of the Dead where the soul is introduced to the Horus as the Judge. In front of Muat:
The term of adoration may be intended to be invocation instead. Gavin in Australia has several videos out that I think do a fairly good job in pronunciation of the language.
It is a portion of the book of the dead. So, it may be from some time after the first intermediate period. It could have been added later though. When the old kingdom fell, there really was social chaos. Times like that are when people seek out meaning in their lives.
I'll try to send a clip of some things I have. The Egyptian linguistics I have studied relies on symbolic interpretation. I was mostly exposed to the teachings of the Isha Upanishad all throughout my childhood.
As a primer, I mention and provide examples of the linguistics in the first half of my article on Individualized Sovereignty:
I will see if I can post a complete copy of the Adoration of Horus here in the comments for you.
For the Isha Upanishad; the best one for anyone not already familiar with Vedic Teachings would be the Interpretation by Sri Aurobindo. I think it is available online, I have a book of it.
That is what I call Voluntary cooperation as opposed to compulsory collectivism. If there was a system of community sovereignty it could become administrated by a few; this is what created the earliest form of what we have today. If you think about it like this: what would happen if the US Constitution was followed in the way the founders actually wanted it to be followed? Even while they were still alive, they violated it; first example in US history would have to be the Whiskey Rebellion.
I don't know if you've seen this episode of mine: https://thirdparadigm.substack.com/p/the-constitutional-convention-coup. The Constitution is another psyops, that replaced British control with banker control and defeated the purpose for which the Revolutionary War was fought. I have a chapter on it in my book. My system follows Benjamin Franklin's. And yes, the Whiskey Rebellion is a great example, preceded by Shay's Rebellion.
You are right, the young republic had sown the seeds of banker infiltrations from the beginning. I think it was something like 21 loans that the founders owed on. Originally it was through the bank in France before their revolution, once the king of France was out, the priority of authority shifted to king George. The bank of London was the true holder of the loan. The Americans had to raise taxes to pay on the debt. That is why we are being taxed today.
I wouldn't call the usurpers of the new federation the founders, and I wouldn't call those who supported a lower-case federal gov't the anti-Federalists. That was the psyops that stole the sovereignty of the states. It actually speaks directly to the strategic difference you and I have been talking about. Rather than have communities with an average size of 200,000 people control their own currency, production and trade--as they had when they were colonies--the new consolidated, centralized gov't leapfrogged the states and spoke for "We the people." As if people speak in unison. Rather than saying "We the States" as Patrick Henry objected.
I agree with Michael Hudson that all foreign debts should be denominated in the borrowing country's currency, essentially as IOU's on future production. And the veterans of the war weren't paid their back wages but were losing their farms for back taxes. They wanted the State to be allowed to issue its own currency to pay them so they could pay their taxes. After the merchants and bankers bought their own militia to put down Shay's Rebellion, they got together in Annapolis to plot the new Constitution, so they could never be deprived of taking other people's property again.
Interesting point that Satan was the label that the empire used against those who were against it.
I read a book long ago that had an interesting take on Lucifer.
I'm going by memory so forgive me if I mess it up a bit.
Lucifer was one of God's head angels, his job was to serve mankind.
Somehow Lucifer was jealous of man, the people he had to serve.
What the author pointed out was that Lucifer was jealous that man was free and he was bound to serve! In other words, the angels were slaves to man and had to take orders from god!
Lucifer was the angel that became self aware, no longer happy to just work.
I'm not sure about that story but it does mesh with how the controlling powers get to choose who to label as good or evil, much like our mass media and industries do today.
As for Naomi Wolf, I don't understand why she voted Biden.
I don't understand why she's convinced its a China conspiracy, ignoring the fact that it's western big pharma that ran the shots and followed lockdown policies.
I sense that she's the type of person that identifies with team sports.
One day she's Democrat next day she's republican, lol.
That's just who she is. And perhaps that explains why this idea of Satan and the devil works for her to understand the crap we went through.
But yes, she doesn't even remember her own book!
There's another Naomi that forgot her book too. Naomi Klein. She's on the side of those who are using the shock doctrine lol
Someday I'll have to delve more into Lucifer. Thanks for the reminder!
Interesting observation about NW and team sports. I was also disappointed in Naomi Klein. I use a quote from her on the intro page of my book. But she's bought into the climate psyops, hook line & sink-us.
I think this was the post I was looking for after we last spoke. 🙌🏽
BTW, we had some crazy licentious raves in San(e) Francisco during Covid. I actually organized quite a few. Would have totally invited you!
(Haha, not quite — although there was one NYE party when what I saw made me blush — but overall there was a lot of hugging, because y’know how dangerous and depraved that behaviour was considered to be. 🤗)
Did I mention being the Queen of the Microrave in this episode? I would have totally come to your crazy licentious ones. Mine were actually pretty tame, except for the totally forbidden element of people being together. In a very sweet and hopeful piece I posted on Nextdoor, right at the beginning when people were very scared, I said a hug was safer than a handshake. ND took it down.
I haven't replied to your other comment, as of yet, as I wanted to catch up on more of your videos, so I'm not repeating what you already know, which is a lot. I do want to say that I am so glad I found you, and I can't wait to buy and read your book, as well:)
Thank you so much! I am also loving the solidarity I feel with you. I'm noting that the comments you like go from religion to economics and many other topics. They're all connected, aren't they?
I think Naomi Wolf, apparently a very well intentioned person doing important work exposing the vaxxx genocide, is mostly projecting her own shock to learn about the covert forces who have run Western Civilization for Centuries as they burst into the open for their long anticipated Malthusian NWO under the cover of medical emergency.
And I agree that our Western civilisation has been built on an ethos of greed and power - with Judaeo-Christian values given lip service, sometimes even practised, but nowhere near as central as we like to pretend.
And it is also true that the increased evil we are seeing now is more about it coming to light than an actual increase (though that is an arguable point).
But I'm disappointed that you have ignored the whole issue of archetypes, and how we can be possessed by them.
As a student of "A Course in Miracles" I would have expected you to at least touch on how evil manifests as an inner phenomenon before it gets projected into the outer world.
There are many ways of looking at the issue of evil, but unless we explore the psychological and spiritual aspects, then we are left just beating at shadows.
Those motivations of greed and power are the Shadow side of our purported Judaeo-Christian principles, and in recent times (as in some other periods of history) they seem to have taken over and become more overt.
Paul Levy has some powerful insights into this, in the phenomenon of "Wetiko" - the "mind virus", and in his books he explores how this is manifesting right now.
Because if we do not look inside and take responsibility for our own Shadow, our own evil, and how we are enabling societal evil, then we will just keep playing into the blame game and the escalating division in our world.
I am honestly never trying to be provocative, Mara. When I talk about a topic that I know will hurt people, I always weigh how important that truth is and how I can say it in the least provocative way possible. What allows people to do harmful things to others, terribly harmful things like we're seeing now, is their belief in their own moral superiority.
I was just reading James Corbett on CIA techniques of psychological torture from the 60's and the eugenics programs. Certainly the people who designed them believed in their own moral superiority. I think that challenging that concept is essential.
I see the word 'sin' as an acronym for seeing inferiority. If there are values that are exclusively Judeo-Christian then all people born into other religions are morally inferior. For me to renounce 'sin' is to reject the 'bribe' of Judeo-Christianity that says we're better people than others.
The Course says that evil doesn't exist because God only creates good, being only good. From one reading: "Here we believe there are alternatives to choose between. We think that all things have an opposite, and what we want we choose. If Heaven exists there must be hell as well, for contradiction is the way we make what we perceive, and what we think is real.
"Fear is a stranger to the ways of love. Identify with fear, and you will be a stranger to yourself. And thus you are unknown to you. Who could be sane in such a circumstance? Who but a madman could believe he is what he is not, and judge against himself?"
First, my reference to "Judaeo-Christian values" was not intended to indicate any sort of moral superiority for those values. (I am neither Jew nor Christian - in fact I consider myself a Pagan, a follower of the Old Religion, and so I have a separate gripe related to this, about Naomi Wolf's demonisation of the Old Gods. Especially considering the direction Christianity has taken and the evil done in its name.)
It was simply an acknowledgment that our legal codes and our purported ethical values - in so-called Christian countries - are based on the Mosaic code: the Ten Commandments, as well as (sort of) the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth.
I cannot comment on other social orders, as I have no real experience of them. Though I do think that most have some sort of ethical framework that is not that different.
We (western countries) like to think that we are superior in the way we value human life and human rights more than co-called "primitive" or "authoritarian" societies - but the things we have seen in the past 3 years do not support that.
Second, it may be true (or not) that a sense of moral superiority is necessary - but not sufficient - for evil to flourish. And I am still thinking about that - I think that evil can be done in the absence of a sense of moral superiority, simply a lack of empathy and compassion may be enough.
With psychopathy, for example (and I have had some training and experience with this working as a clinical/forensic psychologist) there may be some self-concept about moral superiority - but in my experience this is more of a rationalisation than a primary feature. Certainly a psychopath lacks any sense of moral compass, as well as lacking empathy, but it seems to me to be more of an inflated sense of self-importance than a primary moral directive.
And certainly there is more to evil than a belief in your own rightness.
Third: I would agree that at the highest spiritual level, evil does not exist. At that level, all is unity, and without separation (duality), there can be no evil.
I follow the Infinite Way teachings of Joel Goldsmith as the highest spiritual teachings I have encountered (plus I have also studied A Course in Miracles, and many others), and I think that embedded in every highest iteration of a spiritual teaching (including the teachings of Jesus - which are not necessarily the same as Christianity) there is the same understanding about the ultimate Oneness of Being.
Yet here we are, in this third dimension of reality/illusion, and duality is definitely a thing here. We can do the work and try to wake up and transcend duality - but I believe that we incarnated here to learn how to deal with some of these things, including evil. (Those are not mutually exclusive options, of course.)
It's like going into a movie theatre, or playing a video game: at one level you know it is not real, but still you want to learn how to play it (or with a movie, to know the characters have a happy ending).
Evil is a very complex issue, here on our Earth-plane, perhaps one of the most complex and mysterious that we can encounter.
As I said in my original comment: Jung's concept of the Shadow (at both individual and archetypal levels) and Paul Levy's conceptualisation of Wetiko are two models that have been very helpful for me in coming to some understanding of evil.
And I apologise if I have gone off at a tangent in a direction you were not intending. You had a point to make in your post - and I had been expecting something quite different when you flagged that you were writing a response to Naomi Wolf.
Oh Mara, 'your bad' is to my good. I'm so happy to have elicited this deep and insightful response to a post where you were expecting something different!
I did read the Wetiko link but only after I'd replied. It's VERY interesting and not contradictory, I think, to the Course. And that's very interesting about Naomi's demonization of the old gods. I didn't even think about that, but it's certainly true.
William, also on this thread, has been writing about the Jungian shadow and archetypes. I have one of his bookmarked for a future article and he just posted another I haven't read yet: https://williamhunterduncan.substack.com/p/the-king-archetype. Late Winter Thoughts also quotes from The King Within. I think you'll like it.
When I've analyzed the 10 Commandments, what they do is make sin individual while paying no attention to what a society does as a whole--never talks about slavery, colonization, land theft--even though they certainly existed. What Jesus says, other than things like the Golden Rule that predated him in several forms, is "believe in me." What he models in how he treats other people is not very nice, berating his apostles, chastising his mother. If someone claiming to be spiritual today were to act like that, we'd call them an imposter.
I woke up thinking about this question of evil, again for a future post, and this is what I came to: we think we're failing because we're not hating hard enough. If we could just all get together and condemn people like Harari and Schwab with enough self-righteous vehemence, this problem will be solved.
I think we're failing, so far, because we don't yet understand how this system works. When we know how it's been used against us--not just in the abstract but in the nitty-gritty details of economics, psyops, religion, etc--we can use the same systems to our collective benefit. Blaming people, imo, gets in the way of that.
You definitely name the one duality--reality and illusion--but by definition, only one of those exists. Which, of course, I'm stealing directly from the Course ;-) Thanks again!
Thank you for that link, Tereza, and for your answer too!
So much here to unpack and to think about!
I agree that we can't just ignore the externals of what has been done to us, because we need light to illuminate the darkness, and bringing Evil to light is the first step in dealing with it.
I would be a bit alarmed, though, to contemplate using "the same systems to our collective benefit" - because historically, this never ends well. Every revolution throughout history started off with high ideals - and ended up getting corrupted by human fallibility (greed, power, and the rest).
In the end, all sin is individual - though certainly magnified by societal forces. We each of us have to take responsibility for our own actions - our own sin (whose aramaic root means "to miss the mark"), and take corrective action. At the individual level.
Or, you can come back to the concept of archetypes: what is not acknowledged on the inner will get projected onto the outer, and those who receive the projections will tend to identify with those projections and act them out (because we all have a Shadow side, a part of us that would do evil).
That also gets back to the Old Gods: every archetype (and the Old Gods, and the new ones too, are all universal - larger than human - representations of various archetypes) has a positive expression and a negative expression. For example, in astrology (which is all about archetypes), Mars can represent healthy assertion and drive energy - but in its negative manifestation it can represent war, anger, violence.
I once lived with a group of people who professed pacifism - but they were some of the angriest people I had ever met. Not overtly though, just passive aggressive and with streaks of nasty behaviour, always expressed in a gentle way. Because they had not recognised and learned to manage their anger & other lower impulses.
Historically, every religion and spiritual system has started off very pure, high and clear - and over time, they have all been corrupted by evil. It never starts out as huge evil - just little hiccups at first. Because the priests and priestesses and ministers and cardinals and popes and the rest all identify with the Light and so they pretend they are pure and holy, maybe even truly believe it, they want to believe it, and the Dark is left to fester until it grows and gets stronger and eventually takes over.
And this will keep happening until every one of us learns to reclaim our own darkness: to face it, acknowledge it (at least to ourselves), and to keep it in balance. This is where the inner work comes in.
The Roman Church does at least have a sort of process for this, in the confession of sin (which is supposed to be done no matter how high you go). But I can't imagine any pope or cardinal kneeling down and confessing to impulses of lust for power...
As for the bible - I've never found it a particularly edifying read. I read great sections of it way back in the early days of my spiritual journey, in junior high school, but I was horrified by the whole thing. Some spiritual teachers - Christian Science and the like - seem to get great spiritual inspiration from the Bible - but while there are sections that I have found enlightened, I have decided to mostly stay with the interpretations of those who can express the higher meaning.
Christianity in essence is based on the premise of being "saved" - so yes, it is an elitist system, and seems to have very little to do with the actual teachings of Jesus. As far as I can see.
Jesus himself is a different story. You have to keep in mind that only the first 4 gospels purport to be from real accounts of the life of Jesus, and that even the earliest, Mark, seems to have been written some time after Jesus' death.
On top of that, of course, we have the problem that the gospels were written in Greek, reporting the words and stories of people who spoke Aramaic, and mostly now consumed in English (or whichever other language you speak).
Many years ago, I was introduced to the Guild For Psychological Studies
(these days they have a website: https://guildsf.org/), who published some books:
“Records of the Life of Jesus" by Henry Burton Sharman
(I have the first 2 of these books - but not the third.)
The Records is a sort of concordance of the 4 gospels, intended to sort out what Jesus actually said and did, since some of the material in the gospels seems to have been added editorial content, and Matthew especially seems to have taken liberties with his reporting and much of his gospel is not consistent with the others.
It's all presented not as some definitive scholarly exposition, but in a form intended for discussion at the various seminars held by the Guild, in order to discern what Jesus actually taught.
It's very interesting, and spiritually satisfying, and I like the approach too.
Anyway, one of the best known and non-controversial things that Jesus said was "Judge not, that ye be not judged", and so I'll just conclude by saying that, like Donald Trump, Jesus has undoubtedly been seriously misinterpreted by those who have an agenda, and is worth at least going back to the original before coming to any conclusion!
oooh... those passive aggressive pacifists, I've had my run ins with them too ;-)
Thanks for your thoughtful and nuanced reply. I'll have my episode out tonight to show what I mean by using the same systems for our collective benefits. Thanks again!
It was an interesting way to tell people that they mostly project?
The full chapter of Matthew 7 goes on to describe what he does expect of his followers
"do the will of my father who is in heaven"
and in other passages Jesus says he wasn't there to abolish the law, but fulfill it, so something about the law he's referring to is important. Much of it is morally pretty upstanding and good. The 10 commandments are hardly a bad idea, most of them. Of course if you have parents that abused you, then honoring them is partly forgiving them so you aren't attached to the trauma they inflicted on you, etc. I mention that because many have said that this is one of the commandments that should be taken with a grain of salt in that context. But is it? I had many resentments to things my parents did that I thought was unfair, but I only realized I was free of them when I acknowledged that they did the best they could and made mistakes and forgiving them made me remember only the good things they did and that was something I could honor.
I'm pretty sure some detailed instructions came with those 10, and the other 600+ laws that, when you investigate them, lead you to a better place within yourself.
That's a good distinction. If you look closely at any philosophy or religion you'll find the same, and that goes for Pagan religions, new age religions, buddhism, hinduism (the grandfather of the new age) and so forth.
So what's that distinction lead to?
That there is a force of evil that tries to impose itself on anything that does try to do good and you realize this the second you realize that it can work through you and you identify what good actually is and how you are programmed to look for the evil in it so as to discredit it.
Evil does exist Tereza. If you are convinced otherwise, might be a good time to ask how you became convinced to ignore something that does exist. Maybe it's easier to cope that way?
You are brave to wade into these waters. The many roots of our divisions go back a very long time and religion is obviously part of that.
The very best PSYOPS - the one's with staying power - always include some truths in with the lies. It occurred to me several years ago, while teasing out the many layers of our manufactured reality-show, that religion and philosophy would also have been hijacked by hidden agendas. These are harder to highlight and pull apart given the interpretive nature of them, and the fusing of those interpretations into identity.
Being part of the 'chosen' ones is a perfect example. I've always found the notion of God favoring a certain group dangerous and offensive. It makes no sense. (unless it serves a hidden agenda of division of course.)
The deep difficulty in sussing these things out is that with religion, faith is involved. And faith has two clear aspects: a primary aspect which is intuitive, visceral, and connects us to a direct-knowing. In its primary expression then, it can not be argued with.
Then a secondary aspect - Religion - any religion which is the formalized expression of faith, and so subject to institutional weaknesses and corruption. This secondary aspect can be looked at objectively and argued about. (Would anyone suggest the Catholic church is without corruption?)
Because many fuse these two aspects, and don't tease them apart, criticism of the secondary aspect - the institution - feels like an attack on the primary aspect or intuitive piece. Understandably, it's not welcome. Criticizing the religion amounts to "How dare you criticize my faith?"
When Religious organizations become the portal to faith, it places the the cart before the horse. Becomes very difficult for the faithful to separate them out later.
On the other hand, Intuitive knowing of a larger Source with which we are directly connected and in communication with, when followed by a chosen expression, puts the horse in front of the cart. Very different.
I sketched out an outline for a book on this idea - Freeing God from Religion - many years back when I was taking religious studies classes. It cleaned up so much confusion for me.
Thank you.
Oh Kathleen, so happy to find out we have this other shared interest! And I've also sketched out (and written some big chunks of) a book I called A House for the Soul in the Land Beyond Faith. I look at faith as making up your mind about something in advance of knowledge or experience, so we might be talking about different things using the same word. My only dogma, or belief I won't raise to question, is that I'm no better than anyone else. Everything else, including the 'reality' of the world and myself as a separate mind in a separate body perceiving it, is up to question.
My daily practice, for going on 20 years, is the meditations of A Course in Miracles which involve exercises in forgiveness and seeing other people from their own POV, and then finding out whether that changes your experience. I can't kid myself that events are random. I'm not looking to convince anyone else, but once I give up on my superiority to protect me, I find that I don't need protection.
Yes I am happy to discover this is common, as well. And I like your only dogma - I fully agree.
I'm very familiar with the CIM work - went to a group for several years and also studied on my own. So many gems in that book.
It's so true - we don't need any protection, do we? We are what we are, and while I accept accounts of 'faith' as an internal knowing, how we understand that does change as we deepen into it. (Assuming we don't hem ourselves in, of course.)
Appreciate your open, questioning mind, Tereza.
Those who have been the Elites controlling society began doing so by first centralizing GOD and MONEY. Centralization is home to corruption. Hierarchy is the skeletal frame work for it.
God can only be found inside each person if they have the courage to look. Each human life is sacred, this human experience is a focal point of attention within infinite consciousness.
I'm with you.
I like the way you teased out the ideas of primary and secondary aspects.
"Then a secondary aspect - Religion - any religion which is the formalized expression of faith, and so subject to institutional weaknesses and corruption. " My way of saying that (yours is much, much better) is that if it's institutionalized it's dehumanied.
Nefahotep also formulated the idea extremely well in his comment.
Thanks, Goeff. I think you put that very well!
And yes, Nef is quite good at honing in on the control mechanisms. Think we're getting to the same place, using slightly different lenses.
Best.
Hola, Tereza. An excellent analysis.
In her apology to the conservative stack, Wolf denies by inference the reality of the psyop of even 40 years ago.
With having had my face slapped hard by covidian madness, I began to open my eyes beyond where I had previously opened them to the obvious malfeasance of the government and media of the last century and began looking more deeply at the psyop practices that have been going on for centuries/millenia.
Your look at the Bible is helpful to me, as I am not a deep Biblical scholar. Thank you. I have some understanding of the level and scope of evil that was extant in the Greek and Roman cultures from indirect sources. Your points elaborate and confirm them.
Tagging something as evil as the reason for evil is very much a cop-out from taking personal responsibility for fixing the problem. It really comes down to: We have met the enemy and the enemy us us. I have met the enemy, the enemy is me. If I am able to tag mother-weffers, or Khazarian mafia, or Rhadanite bankers, Deep State operations or whoever as the source of evil. I can sigh with relief, dust off my hands, and say 'Nothing to see here, folks,' all the while projecting my shadow. LoL! Just like what the 'evil' ones do.
If I am to see a peaceful, joyful world, killing the bad guys is not going to do it. That is exactly the same rationale being used by the evil ones to kill us poor, humble trusting 'good' guys. If I am going to see a peaceful joyful world, then it is my responsibility to bring peace and joy into my heart and soul and mind. Once I have done that, and that is an amazing challenge, then I can embody them and create peace and joy in my immediate world. Blaming evil is a great psyop keeping us trapped in killing the enemy without.
Life really does have a wicked sense of humour.
Thank you for that, Guy. You know my definition of socio-spirituality: looking with open eyes at the reality in the world while questioning the reality of the world. So yes, going back and forth in those two realms is so important. I'm glad you have a practice that keeps you grounded and allows you to see without fear.
I don't believe in evil people but I do see behaviors as evil when they cause others to cause suffering. When we stop people from having the ability to do evil, by taking away their power, we do it for them as much as for everyone else.
Yes, evil is the product of behaviour. The Buddha had an interesting take on this, that 'bad' behaviour comes from the untamed energies of greed (not just for money), anger/hatred and boredom.
I am not sure that the action of taking away a person's 'evil' power is a long term strategy that can work. It is sometimes required as a temporary step in order to stop an immediate threat, at the personal or even social level. The challenge is that those powerful enough to take away another's power of evil almost invariably delude themselves that their power is by default benevolent. And bingo bango bongo, we are in the hamster wheel of power being used inappropriately.
Is this 'kumbaya' thinking? Nope. Standing up peacefully to evil is an act of courage that far surpasses the courage required to get angry and violently take away another's power.
An interesting conundrum. The violence of history is a pretty blunt lesson, though: violence does not stop violence.
We can blame the Khazarian mafia, or whoever, for their successful psyop processes to keep people killing each other to the benefit of the KM. Solution is negate the effectiveness of the psyop itself because killing the psyoperators is at best temporary. The psyop is stopped when people are not reacting to it. And that has nothing to do with violence or taking away another's power. It is the opposite, in fact, by claiming our personal power enough to stop allowing ourselves to be psyopped into being violent! And the easiest psyop in the world is to demonstrate the evil of this or that other, which is why it has been used for millennia. (I was one of those evil 'things' in Canada's unsafe evil other psyop.)
I think you might be misunderstanding what I mean by 'taking away a person's power for evil', if I can rephrase it. We live under an economic system that holds housing hostage in order to force us to work for the bankers. That, ipso facto, makes the bankers our rulers. If communities are the default owners of the houses when they change owners, by having the exclusive right to issue the credit AND the currency that repays the debt, our labor serves the community.
I don't really care who the bankers are, I care about changing the system. If that system, however, is protected by a religion that says the right to rule over others is divinely granted, that religion has to be challenged. If your religion is the belief that God gave you the right to rule over me, do I need to respect your religion? You can't defend a religion of domination and also defend the people it dominates--we have to choose.
I know that's not what you're saying, Guy, just some thoughts it brought up for me.
Nail on the Head! One important part of the way the social, governmental and economic structure operates is through the Aloidal Trust system. Pope Vicarus issued a Papal Bull in 1455 that stated that literally EVERYTHING on earth belonged to him, the Pope. This included ALL peoples everywhere. Today this Aloidal Trust system is like an onion skin of trusts inside of trust inside of trusts. In the US, there is the Depository Trust Corp. privately owned by Cede & Company. They apparently own YOUR birth certificate, because you are considered collateral against the debt.
Interesting? This is one of the reasons why these Elite Parasites think they can just cull us.
This is the Aloidal Trust System you mention. Is it possible to get specific details on the route of the trusts? If there is a way, then the average individual can work towards nullifying this onion skin of control.
I see. The words of your sentence are all power-based words and so is very hard to misunderstand on the surface. Your elaboration on what you wanted to say describes the evolution of society away from a power structured one. Interesting to see how that 'power' language came in to colour your argument back into the very structure you are wanting to see collapse. The change you are describing comes, ultimately, from the evolution of consciousness, for lack of a better word, away from outsourcing our power to another one, or even THE ONE, to lord over us.
Religion would not have successfully taken it onto themselves to be THE ONE if the outsourcing of our power had not occurred in the beginning. That the 'powerful' wanted to be seen as saviours does not confer power on to them until we give it. And, omg, did we give it away! [Headshake and smile.]
The cabal believe that they can take what they want because they have, with hubris and delusion, misunderstood that their power is simply a manifestation of the outsourcing of our power. That outsourcing was a choice, unconsciously made most of the time, of course. The evolution of consciousness is simply how we become aware of how we unconsciously gave away our power to choose and now choose to take it back. And those are the core teachings of Buddha, Christ, Krishna , etc.
The multi-century multi-faceted propaganda, history-erasing double-speaking, double processed cheese ant-burger psyops with extra gmo glyphosate pickles and onion rings on the side, are the wizards' silver screens covered in jewels and flashing multi-coloured lasers or LEDs.
It has worked for a long time. Now pride cometh before the fall and the cabal have let us, by 'accident' born of hubris, see behind the silver curtain. Lots of us knew it was a curtain before the dawning of the covid generation and now many more see it. And those who saw it in the TBC (time before covid) now see how much more 'deep' and even pervasive is the 'evil' energising the machinations of the cabal attempt to mechanise humans.
It seems to me that Wolf is, for example, in the 'OMG I didn't know there was a curtain' camp and so her eyes haven't adjusted yet to the darkness she is beginning to see and is a confused, albeit mostly effective, warrior still trusting 'good' power to fix 'bad' power. Pointing to 'evil' and 'satan', however defined, displays that her foundation is still in the power structure that enlivened the cabal in the first place. For her it seems that she has seen our true enemy and that the enemy is still out there.
Sorry, Wolf. I like you. It is when we have seen that the enemy is us, not them, that the enemy is me, not you, that we can claim the power that is our birthright as children of god, and stop for our own good gmo and fake meat digitised emf power structures.
"double processed cheese ant-burger psyops with extra gmo glyphosate pickles and onion rings on the side' ... nicely articulated and well thought out, Guy! I don't disagree. Interesting analogy on Wolf. I like her too.
You clearly get it. I wish I could give you 10 stars for that. The evolution of consciousness is at THE center of it!
Also, society itself will always reflect the overall awareness of its constituents. Ideally, I really don't want to destroy anything, just apply the true power of Sovereignty to nullify the existing structure; there by replacing it with what works more harmoniously for the Individual. It will take all of us to peacefully work out the details.
Namaste!
Wasn't it G.K. Chesterton who was asked by a newspaper, "What is the greatest problem in the world?" who answered, "Me"? The only persons we can change are ourselves and, I don't know about you, but I find that VERY hard indeed, kind of a life's work.
oh that's so funny Margaret. I've been writing my next episode and it's exactly on that topic.
I look forward to that. I'm a Roman Catholic. One of our best sacraments is Reconciliation or Confession. We must state exactly how we have sinned against God or others. It's grindingly painful to say to another how awful we are in our thoughts, if not our actions.
My son, an agnostic, said that he and his business partner, also non-religious, were discussing that it seemed to them that religious people were the most sane people. I think it is because acknowledging our dark side and promising to do all we can to avoid those sins is therapeutic. Realizing that we need God's grace to be good is also humbling.
It recently (slow learner) dawned on me that everyone is God's favorite child and we better not deliberately do harm to another "or else!"
Thoughts from an 80+-year old who is still trying to get it right.
Love it! Thank you, Margaret.
And it is indeed a life work, looking inside. And so wonderful when tackled head on.
Good discussion. Time for us all to grow up philosophically, spiritually, morally, culturally and psychologically. Maybe even politically? The entire scheme of power is claiming some BS overarching claim to power which is in any even superficial analysis a PROJECTION. Furthermore it becomes a justification for certain actions. Does anyone have any concept of the mass murder and campaigns carried out against other humans because they were of the conceived “other”? Ask the Native Americans among others - a 500 year genocidal slaughter in the name of the “Christian” religion. The current wave of hypocrisy and Satanic deeds is nothing new. We got a long way to go baby. “Civilized” - ah, no.
As a second note the concept of a “Nation State” as some kind of sacred entity is an excuse for instituting an ongoing bureaucracy which becomes what we now call the deep state. It is all a scam.
The results are the current totalitarianism with the attendant Covid event, the associated “died suddenly” epidemic and massive fertility and pregnancy failures - not to mention the small matter of the banking collapse. And the forced enslavement of our kids through inappropriate sexualization with the transgender outrage.
We are now in an extinction level event where we are advanced, like it or not, into a fight for survival of our kids.
Think it is not all connected? Think again. Ask those world government boys and girls at the World Economic Forum.
And then watch “The Thin Red Line”. Think the Nation State doesn’t hate each and every one of us?
Well-written, Kathleen, I agree with everything except one that's important. The Bible turned history inside-out and made the villains into heroes but also the heroes into villains. Don't accept the literal demonization of the anti-imperialists as Satan. They were termed demon-possessed because, even when children were tortured and burned alive, they wouldn't say that Caesar was God--and Caesar is who the NT means by the word Lord or God. In fact, those children seemed unbothered by the flames, as reported by Josephus who hated the zealots with a passion. Let's say that what he said was true and couldn't be denied because coliseums full of people were witnessing this imperviousness to pain and lack of fear of death, and even perhaps a belief that resurrection was inclusive so death had no power. That highly visible demonstration would end the power of the Roman empire because fear of death and suffering was all they had. So Josephus twists it to say it's the power of the devil that makes them safe no matter how the empire tortures them.
Who's really doing the work of the devil here, if there was such a thing? And did the zealots know something that we've lost, along with their version of Judaism? Is, perhaps, pain NOT the strongest force in the world? That's the dangerous theology that the Bible was written to bury in psyops.
I agree with that. It fits with my sense that the negativity Gods (satanic forces) like the positivity Gods (angels, Christian deities) are projections of our own positive and negative forces, qualities, subconscious, etc. To me satanic forces are what we become when we lie to ourselves and others. Cultures become satanic when they are riddled with lies and become devolutionary = cultures of death. But yes there are a whole lot of controlling forces in the Christian ( church & state) philosophies. This struck me at about age five. I quit Sunday school, lol. I like your take on these issues.
This is a major tipping point in (Western) civilization. Major...
Here are some of my comments on her article:
Interesting article overall. That said, I only half agree with it. There is indeed an evil, demonic influence in our world that has been causing havoc for thousands of years. But it's neither Pagan nor Abrahamic per se, but rather it is the demonic patriarchy overall, and all of what it has brought forth: war, genocide, ecocide, gynocide, child abuse, and so on. If that's not human sacrifice writ large, I really don't know what is. Both the Abrahamic as well as the "heathen" flavors of this paradigm are to blame, as are the secular neoliberal technocratic flavors as well. And it all started 7000 to 10000 years ago, when men took over after displacing Women from power.
Patriarchy is not timeless, rather, it has a beginning, and it has an end. And the end is coming very soon, God willing and it's violent lashing out now is because it is in its final death throes.
(The following is in response to her response that women can be just as evil/sadistic as men:)
Of course, to be fair, they [Women] too were all (or nearly all) born and raised in the very same evil system of patriarchy (or kyriarchy, or the "dominator model", if you prefer). Simply genderswapping the same evil system (that is, "reverse patriarchy") would be just as evil IMHO, while genuine Matriarchy is a fundamentally different paradigm altogether.
But yes, there would always need to be safeguards against evil and sadism in any system regardless of gender IMHO. Just like how a democracy without a good constitution devolves to mob rule (ochlocracy), which is just as bad as oligarchy, tyranny, or autocracy.
OK, on a lighter note, time for a joke:
In the beginning, Yahweh said, "Let there be light!" His wife Asherah said, "Say please!" LOL
(And yes, Yahweh originally did have a wife, Asherah, before she was edited out. Look it up)
Is the adjective 'demonic' necessary or even useful to the point that patriarchy, or any -archy (from the Greek word for rulers) is the problem, whether religion validates it or not? It seems like 'demonic' implies that there's a supernatural force on the side of the rulers and if we try to break free, who knows what power they'll unleash! I think it serves them by making us afraid, rather than seeing them as humans who found that we'll allow them to control us, nyah-ha-ha!
I'm picturing a moustache-twirling cartoon villain, not some overarching (there are those archons again) supervillain who can order nature to do His Will (without geo-engineering.)
I certainly agree with you that the feminine, which I believe is our identity as One Self, is returning, which is why I talk about a feminine economy that places children at the center.
And I don't know if you were reading when I talk about Hilary and her ilk as 'patriarchs without penises.' I've had readers challenge me on the word matriarch, which means a female ruler. I think that matrilineal property succession would solve the problems of homelessness. But she suggested matrix as a form of matri- that I didn't realize was related when I did this video on Patriarchal Pyramid or Matriarchal Matrix? on Vandana Shiva: https://youtu.be/dtID5Ho_OBY
To be honest, I would say I am of two minds about the whole demonic thing, but the forces of evil ruling this world, and their energies, do seem to lean supernatural to some degree.
As for Matriarchy, I believe that some degree of actual Matriarchy (though not reverse patriarchy!) would be a necessary answer to the question of "what's to stop men from just taking over again?"

What a kick Rasa is! The stripper for God--excellent. And the first female bodybuilder. Thanks for telling me about her.
I quote Bucky Fuller a few times in my book in the chapter called Too Small to Fail.
And I think I told you that I was once going to speak before Riane at a local TEDx but took myself out of the running. In another life ...
Thanks and you're very welcome :)
The idea that men took over and that women have no power, is already wrong and pits one sex over the other. Part of a bigger psyop obviously.
Fascinating discourse and comments. I would be interested in thoughts on https://clifhigh.substack.com/p/the-pirates-hacking-manual-of-aether/comments - takes several reads for it to sink in!
Hi, Paul. Thanks for sending this. The first two premises in the model I agree with completely: Consciousness exists. Nothing else does. I'd rephrase his third premise that consciousness was bored and needed to introduce novelty, but we're thinking along the same lines.
Here's my version: Consciousness, aka God, exists. Nothing else does. One is the loneliest number and God wanted to share delight. So God put a little space between Himself and God's creativity--the womb of God, God's Woman. That's us, in our true form, forever joined with God and extending love and imagination to delight God and OurSelf.
But somewhere in eternity (which can't coexist with Time, as infinity can't coexist with Space) we got this crazy idea that we could do something without God. We could kill ourSelf. Nuts, right? But instead of realizing how silly it was, we thought we'd done something against God and put ourSelf into this horrible nightmare where we projected our guilt onto 7 billion figures who fought among themselves in the dream. But we weren't really alone and God wasn't really mad, He just laughed. And sent His voice into the dream to remind us that we were loved and we were God, and time and space became a pocket in reality, a padded cell where we couldn't hurt ourselves until we came to our senses, err... our true Mind, and made this such a great dream that we weren't afraid to wake up.
That's my alternative but I'm so glad he's presenting his version and you showed it to me!
My pleasure. I grew up in a Deaf family so was never influenced by organised religion. I have found God and Jesus or rather they made their presence known to me. My mind has expanded these years since UK Brexit. I speed read hundreds of substacks, papers etc every week and love the comments. There are more of us than we know. Not afraid of death. Will never submit to the evil ones.
This is similar to the cosmological genesis you find in Indian Samkhya Philosophy. Paraphrased: everything was perfect, except for a tiny itch that couldn't be satisfied. Perhaps that itch was boredom, one of Buddha's three fires as the source of suffering.
I have to admit, I just discovered the comments section on this article, albeit late.
For me the soul exists separately from consciousness.
Consciousness is the repository of all memories, thoughts and feelings that one accumulates in their life.
Many who have had near death experiences will describe witnessing their life as a third party observer, separate from the experiences. This is also described by those transitioning to the afterlife on their death bed, sort of a shedding of the experiences they have had.
It's also worth noting that the singularity/transhuman crew believe they can live forever now that they think they have the technology to codify and store 'consciousness' and transfer it indefinitely to sythentic/biologically grown space suits (bodies) so they can live forever. Have they ever considered that once they die the first time, their soul leaves the building? So what are they preserving? The effects of living in this 3rd dimension?
We're placing too much emphasis on the thoughts, feelings and memories. It's possible those are all stored somewhere anyway. The idea that pure consciousness is just non-attached being is probably the perfect description of the soul, separate from it's experiences but able to access and relive them all whenever it would like?
Thanks for this Tereza. Returning to a spiritual blackmail agreement with a psychopathic desert demon seems like a terrible way out of this situation, yet here we are. I'm glad you have faith in Naomi, because to me she seems to have positioned herself perfectly to lead us into this fun new Judeo-Christian Conservative-backlash regime we are careening towards.
Isaac! I just saw you're awake there in Australia since you liked my Inflation post. I just put out a YT on What a Smoke & Wombat Holes. I'll add the Substack in the morning. Here it is: https://youtu.be/rCxRb7aKuzw.
Early Sunday afternoon here in Western Australia and I just saw your vid pop up on my notifications, which was a lovely surprise!
Your stack is delightful, Isaac, and right (I first wrote write) up my conspiracy alley. I love the way you talk about religion as superiority (obvi) and I've always had a soft spot for wombats. Who could not? They have the best name ever, although platypus is darn good too. For others, here's a quote from your intro:
"Well, wombat burrows are epic. They might seem simple enough, with often a single entrance, but they can branch out into numerous interlinked tunnels, stretching up to 200 metres in length.
"This is the model for what I want to do. To take a subject that seems simple enough on the surface, but to burrow in deep to find the interconnected system that lies underneath. Because everything is connected, if only you dig deep enough."
Subscribed! And your statement about careening into a J-C Conservative-backlash regime seems spot on. But I didn't get the psychopathic desert demon, who's that?
Thankyou for those kind words Tereza, I appreciate it! I had an acute wombat obsession when I was younger, so have managed to transform that into my main creative outlet. Wombat vids and memes help to take the edge off when the conspiracy digressions get a little too deep.
The "psychopathic desert demon" is my unpopular and perhaps slightly unkind shorthand for Yahweh, who it seems to me is the greatest spiritual opportunist in history in his/their success in masquerading for several millenia as the real Creator God.
Very happy to have found your Stack: just about to dig further into "Jesus is the OG Psy-ops", which is a spicy premise that even I haven't been brave enough to openly propose yet.
That could be read 'a cute wombat obsession'. I haven't yet caught the vids and memes but looking forward to them and feel free to post links.
Wholesome and conspiracy are actually natural partners. Healing is making whole, taking something torn or divisive and making it One. Conspiracy means to breath together. So I think you're on to something.
When I get around to Abraham, I'll present why I think 'Lord' in the OT represents the Pharaoh, in the same way that it represents Caesar in the NT, as you just read (thanks for the like!) Looking forward to your thoughts on it.
How did you keep a straight face when you said "The Horned One"? I can't help but laugh at that term. I know this is a serious topic, as no one likes to be fooled in the name of empire. It's interesting now to see people under attack on many fronts since covid expressing their faith where before no one would even dare mention God. It's the perfect time for a real logical discussion. Thank you for sharing your research and knowledge. Definitely time for moral intellect to dispel the empirical religions.
It wasn't easy! Conspiracy Sarah's piece was so hilariously tongue-in-cheek and over the top that I had to include it. The remainder of her essay I highly recommend, which goes deep into more of the psyops for sunscreen and against sun exposure and in geo-engineering. She's brilliant!
Thanks for your kind words! And yes, let's replace imperial religions with empirical ones.
LOL, I'm so glad you know what I mean, even though I spelled it wrong. I will check out Conspiracy Sarah. Thks
Thank you, Tereza.
This is possibly the best analysis of overall religious social perception that I have ever read. It's excellent. The thing I have noticed in true ancient writings, that is Egyptian and Sanskrit, there's a lot of symbolism in both the writing itself and the interpretation. The ancient mind didn't think the way we think today. The symbolism was there to give the seekers of truth a method to find it, unique to each individual. Underlying meaning can only be found on the inside, that is where the true self is. What we have today, is litteralism and fundamentalism. People live in the world they create, they look but they don't see. They follow blindly and don't hear the inner self while taking action that is poisonous to civilization.
When we are true to the inner self, we can live life in a truthful way, that bestows wisdom.
Individualized Sovereignty is the best medicine for society.
Excellent points, Nefahotep. Do you have any links for Egyptian or Sanskrit ancient writings? I'm curious to see how they compare.
And, as always, I would only amend that to Community Sovereignty. To live, we depend on the products of other people's labor and shared resources. Money gives us individual sovereignty and the ability to take those while giving nothing in return. A system of reciprocity that includes producers and consumers in close proximity is the only way to replace a system of empire.

For better understanding, many words in ancient Egyptian were of multiple meanings. The context of the usage was as important as the symbolism itself. Many people may not get the same meaning as I do. This is because of my exposure to Vedic symbolism. The the comments I left for you in [brackets] gives you some idea of what I mean. Meaning will always be an internal affair.
That's truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with me, Nefahotep. It's not a tradition I have any familiarity with. What's the era of this, in terms of dates or Pharaohs?
This may be a portion of the Book of the Dead where the soul is introduced to the Horus as the Judge. In front of Muat:
The term of adoration may be intended to be invocation instead. Gavin in Australia has several videos out that I think do a fairly good job in pronunciation of the language.
He sings it Here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qDuh4__LrY
Omnisutra - Book of the Dead - Adoration of Horus
by Gavin Shri Amneon featuring Clare Sentience and Travis Jekks Taylor on Tar. Produced by Ben Templestep Last.
School of Mysticism in Melbourne Australia website:
www.amneon.net
It is a portion of the book of the dead. So, it may be from some time after the first intermediate period. It could have been added later though. When the old kingdom fell, there really was social chaos. Times like that are when people seek out meaning in their lives.
I'll try to send a clip of some things I have. The Egyptian linguistics I have studied relies on symbolic interpretation. I was mostly exposed to the teachings of the Isha Upanishad all throughout my childhood.
As a primer, I mention and provide examples of the linguistics in the first half of my article on Individualized Sovereignty:
https://nefahotep.substack.com/p/individualized-sovereignty-and-political
I will see if I can post a complete copy of the Adoration of Horus here in the comments for you.
For the Isha Upanishad; the best one for anyone not already familiar with Vedic Teachings would be the Interpretation by Sri Aurobindo. I think it is available online, I have a book of it.
That is what I call Voluntary cooperation as opposed to compulsory collectivism. If there was a system of community sovereignty it could become administrated by a few; this is what created the earliest form of what we have today. If you think about it like this: what would happen if the US Constitution was followed in the way the founders actually wanted it to be followed? Even while they were still alive, they violated it; first example in US history would have to be the Whiskey Rebellion.
I don't know if you've seen this episode of mine: https://thirdparadigm.substack.com/p/the-constitutional-convention-coup. The Constitution is another psyops, that replaced British control with banker control and defeated the purpose for which the Revolutionary War was fought. I have a chapter on it in my book. My system follows Benjamin Franklin's. And yes, the Whiskey Rebellion is a great example, preceded by Shay's Rebellion.
You are right, the young republic had sown the seeds of banker infiltrations from the beginning. I think it was something like 21 loans that the founders owed on. Originally it was through the bank in France before their revolution, once the king of France was out, the priority of authority shifted to king George. The bank of London was the true holder of the loan. The Americans had to raise taxes to pay on the debt. That is why we are being taxed today.
Crazy right?
I wouldn't call the usurpers of the new federation the founders, and I wouldn't call those who supported a lower-case federal gov't the anti-Federalists. That was the psyops that stole the sovereignty of the states. It actually speaks directly to the strategic difference you and I have been talking about. Rather than have communities with an average size of 200,000 people control their own currency, production and trade--as they had when they were colonies--the new consolidated, centralized gov't leapfrogged the states and spoke for "We the people." As if people speak in unison. Rather than saying "We the States" as Patrick Henry objected.
I agree with Michael Hudson that all foreign debts should be denominated in the borrowing country's currency, essentially as IOU's on future production. And the veterans of the war weren't paid their back wages but were losing their farms for back taxes. They wanted the State to be allowed to issue its own currency to pay them so they could pay their taxes. After the merchants and bankers bought their own militia to put down Shay's Rebellion, they got together in Annapolis to plot the new Constitution, so they could never be deprived of taking other people's property again.
No, I think we are in general agreement, I have not done enough research on the details to be sure for myself on it. I'll take a closer look.
Wow, very well said. I was very disappointed in Naomi Wolf after reading that article of hers, to say the least.
Interesting point that Satan was the label that the empire used against those who were against it.
I read a book long ago that had an interesting take on Lucifer.
I'm going by memory so forgive me if I mess it up a bit.
Lucifer was one of God's head angels, his job was to serve mankind.
Somehow Lucifer was jealous of man, the people he had to serve.
What the author pointed out was that Lucifer was jealous that man was free and he was bound to serve! In other words, the angels were slaves to man and had to take orders from god!
Lucifer was the angel that became self aware, no longer happy to just work.
I'm not sure about that story but it does mesh with how the controlling powers get to choose who to label as good or evil, much like our mass media and industries do today.
As for Naomi Wolf, I don't understand why she voted Biden.
I don't understand why she's convinced its a China conspiracy, ignoring the fact that it's western big pharma that ran the shots and followed lockdown policies.
I sense that she's the type of person that identifies with team sports.
One day she's Democrat next day she's republican, lol.
That's just who she is. And perhaps that explains why this idea of Satan and the devil works for her to understand the crap we went through.
But yes, she doesn't even remember her own book!
There's another Naomi that forgot her book too. Naomi Klein. She's on the side of those who are using the shock doctrine lol
Someday I'll have to delve more into Lucifer. Thanks for the reminder!
Interesting observation about NW and team sports. I was also disappointed in Naomi Klein. I use a quote from her on the intro page of my book. But she's bought into the climate psyops, hook line & sink-us.
Brilliant! And I second Kathleen, you are brave to wander into this space. Well done.
And thank you for the shout...I am humbled and honored to be included 😈
I think this was the post I was looking for after we last spoke. 🙌🏽
BTW, we had some crazy licentious raves in San(e) Francisco during Covid. I actually organized quite a few. Would have totally invited you!
(Haha, not quite — although there was one NYE party when what I saw made me blush — but overall there was a lot of hugging, because y’know how dangerous and depraved that behaviour was considered to be. 🤗)
Did I mention being the Queen of the Microrave in this episode? I would have totally come to your crazy licentious ones. Mine were actually pretty tame, except for the totally forbidden element of people being together. In a very sweet and hopeful piece I posted on Nextdoor, right at the beginning when people were very scared, I said a hug was safer than a handshake. ND took it down.
Of course ND had to take your dangerous post down, so ridiculous 🙄
Will have to organize a Microrave and invite you!
I haven't replied to your other comment, as of yet, as I wanted to catch up on more of your videos, so I'm not repeating what you already know, which is a lot. I do want to say that I am so glad I found you, and I can't wait to buy and read your book, as well:)
Thank you so much! I am also loving the solidarity I feel with you. I'm noting that the comments you like go from religion to economics and many other topics. They're all connected, aren't they?
Yes, so many topics, so little time, and also yes that they are all connected. Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
I think Naomi Wolf, apparently a very well intentioned person doing important work exposing the vaxxx genocide, is mostly projecting her own shock to learn about the covert forces who have run Western Civilization for Centuries as they burst into the open for their long anticipated Malthusian NWO under the cover of medical emergency.
so tired of Abrahamic religion's BS, all of the flavors...
I guess you are trying to be provocative here.
And I agree that our Western civilisation has been built on an ethos of greed and power - with Judaeo-Christian values given lip service, sometimes even practised, but nowhere near as central as we like to pretend.
And it is also true that the increased evil we are seeing now is more about it coming to light than an actual increase (though that is an arguable point).
But I'm disappointed that you have ignored the whole issue of archetypes, and how we can be possessed by them.
As a student of "A Course in Miracles" I would have expected you to at least touch on how evil manifests as an inner phenomenon before it gets projected into the outer world.
There are many ways of looking at the issue of evil, but unless we explore the psychological and spiritual aspects, then we are left just beating at shadows.
Those motivations of greed and power are the Shadow side of our purported Judaeo-Christian principles, and in recent times (as in some other periods of history) they seem to have taken over and become more overt.
Paul Levy has some powerful insights into this, in the phenomenon of "Wetiko" - the "mind virus", and in his books he explores how this is manifesting right now.
This gives an introduction:
https://www.awakeninthedream.com/articles/wetiko-in-a-nutshell
Because if we do not look inside and take responsibility for our own Shadow, our own evil, and how we are enabling societal evil, then we will just keep playing into the blame game and the escalating division in our world.
I am honestly never trying to be provocative, Mara. When I talk about a topic that I know will hurt people, I always weigh how important that truth is and how I can say it in the least provocative way possible. What allows people to do harmful things to others, terribly harmful things like we're seeing now, is their belief in their own moral superiority.
I was just reading James Corbett on CIA techniques of psychological torture from the 60's and the eugenics programs. Certainly the people who designed them believed in their own moral superiority. I think that challenging that concept is essential.
I see the word 'sin' as an acronym for seeing inferiority. If there are values that are exclusively Judeo-Christian then all people born into other religions are morally inferior. For me to renounce 'sin' is to reject the 'bribe' of Judeo-Christianity that says we're better people than others.
The Course says that evil doesn't exist because God only creates good, being only good. From one reading: "Here we believe there are alternatives to choose between. We think that all things have an opposite, and what we want we choose. If Heaven exists there must be hell as well, for contradiction is the way we make what we perceive, and what we think is real.
"Fear is a stranger to the ways of love. Identify with fear, and you will be a stranger to yourself. And thus you are unknown to you. Who could be sane in such a circumstance? Who but a madman could believe he is what he is not, and judge against himself?"
Thank you, Tereza, for your thoughtful response.
Here are my thoughts:
First, my reference to "Judaeo-Christian values" was not intended to indicate any sort of moral superiority for those values. (I am neither Jew nor Christian - in fact I consider myself a Pagan, a follower of the Old Religion, and so I have a separate gripe related to this, about Naomi Wolf's demonisation of the Old Gods. Especially considering the direction Christianity has taken and the evil done in its name.)
It was simply an acknowledgment that our legal codes and our purported ethical values - in so-called Christian countries - are based on the Mosaic code: the Ten Commandments, as well as (sort of) the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth.
I cannot comment on other social orders, as I have no real experience of them. Though I do think that most have some sort of ethical framework that is not that different.
We (western countries) like to think that we are superior in the way we value human life and human rights more than co-called "primitive" or "authoritarian" societies - but the things we have seen in the past 3 years do not support that.
Second, it may be true (or not) that a sense of moral superiority is necessary - but not sufficient - for evil to flourish. And I am still thinking about that - I think that evil can be done in the absence of a sense of moral superiority, simply a lack of empathy and compassion may be enough.
With psychopathy, for example (and I have had some training and experience with this working as a clinical/forensic psychologist) there may be some self-concept about moral superiority - but in my experience this is more of a rationalisation than a primary feature. Certainly a psychopath lacks any sense of moral compass, as well as lacking empathy, but it seems to me to be more of an inflated sense of self-importance than a primary moral directive.
And certainly there is more to evil than a belief in your own rightness.
Third: I would agree that at the highest spiritual level, evil does not exist. At that level, all is unity, and without separation (duality), there can be no evil.
I follow the Infinite Way teachings of Joel Goldsmith as the highest spiritual teachings I have encountered (plus I have also studied A Course in Miracles, and many others), and I think that embedded in every highest iteration of a spiritual teaching (including the teachings of Jesus - which are not necessarily the same as Christianity) there is the same understanding about the ultimate Oneness of Being.
Yet here we are, in this third dimension of reality/illusion, and duality is definitely a thing here. We can do the work and try to wake up and transcend duality - but I believe that we incarnated here to learn how to deal with some of these things, including evil. (Those are not mutually exclusive options, of course.)
It's like going into a movie theatre, or playing a video game: at one level you know it is not real, but still you want to learn how to play it (or with a movie, to know the characters have a happy ending).
Evil is a very complex issue, here on our Earth-plane, perhaps one of the most complex and mysterious that we can encounter.
As I said in my original comment: Jung's concept of the Shadow (at both individual and archetypal levels) and Paul Levy's conceptualisation of Wetiko are two models that have been very helpful for me in coming to some understanding of evil.
And I apologise if I have gone off at a tangent in a direction you were not intending. You had a point to make in your post - and I had been expecting something quite different when you flagged that you were writing a response to Naomi Wolf.
My bad!
Oh Mara, 'your bad' is to my good. I'm so happy to have elicited this deep and insightful response to a post where you were expecting something different!
I did read the Wetiko link but only after I'd replied. It's VERY interesting and not contradictory, I think, to the Course. And that's very interesting about Naomi's demonization of the old gods. I didn't even think about that, but it's certainly true.
William, also on this thread, has been writing about the Jungian shadow and archetypes. I have one of his bookmarked for a future article and he just posted another I haven't read yet: https://williamhunterduncan.substack.com/p/the-king-archetype. Late Winter Thoughts also quotes from The King Within. I think you'll like it.
When I've analyzed the 10 Commandments, what they do is make sin individual while paying no attention to what a society does as a whole--never talks about slavery, colonization, land theft--even though they certainly existed. What Jesus says, other than things like the Golden Rule that predated him in several forms, is "believe in me." What he models in how he treats other people is not very nice, berating his apostles, chastising his mother. If someone claiming to be spiritual today were to act like that, we'd call them an imposter.
I woke up thinking about this question of evil, again for a future post, and this is what I came to: we think we're failing because we're not hating hard enough. If we could just all get together and condemn people like Harari and Schwab with enough self-righteous vehemence, this problem will be solved.
I think we're failing, so far, because we don't yet understand how this system works. When we know how it's been used against us--not just in the abstract but in the nitty-gritty details of economics, psyops, religion, etc--we can use the same systems to our collective benefit. Blaming people, imo, gets in the way of that.
You definitely name the one duality--reality and illusion--but by definition, only one of those exists. Which, of course, I'm stealing directly from the Course ;-) Thanks again!
Thank you for that link, Tereza, and for your answer too!
So much here to unpack and to think about!
I agree that we can't just ignore the externals of what has been done to us, because we need light to illuminate the darkness, and bringing Evil to light is the first step in dealing with it.
I would be a bit alarmed, though, to contemplate using "the same systems to our collective benefit" - because historically, this never ends well. Every revolution throughout history started off with high ideals - and ended up getting corrupted by human fallibility (greed, power, and the rest).
In the end, all sin is individual - though certainly magnified by societal forces. We each of us have to take responsibility for our own actions - our own sin (whose aramaic root means "to miss the mark"), and take corrective action. At the individual level.
Or, you can come back to the concept of archetypes: what is not acknowledged on the inner will get projected onto the outer, and those who receive the projections will tend to identify with those projections and act them out (because we all have a Shadow side, a part of us that would do evil).
That also gets back to the Old Gods: every archetype (and the Old Gods, and the new ones too, are all universal - larger than human - representations of various archetypes) has a positive expression and a negative expression. For example, in astrology (which is all about archetypes), Mars can represent healthy assertion and drive energy - but in its negative manifestation it can represent war, anger, violence.
I once lived with a group of people who professed pacifism - but they were some of the angriest people I had ever met. Not overtly though, just passive aggressive and with streaks of nasty behaviour, always expressed in a gentle way. Because they had not recognised and learned to manage their anger & other lower impulses.
Historically, every religion and spiritual system has started off very pure, high and clear - and over time, they have all been corrupted by evil. It never starts out as huge evil - just little hiccups at first. Because the priests and priestesses and ministers and cardinals and popes and the rest all identify with the Light and so they pretend they are pure and holy, maybe even truly believe it, they want to believe it, and the Dark is left to fester until it grows and gets stronger and eventually takes over.
And this will keep happening until every one of us learns to reclaim our own darkness: to face it, acknowledge it (at least to ourselves), and to keep it in balance. This is where the inner work comes in.
The Roman Church does at least have a sort of process for this, in the confession of sin (which is supposed to be done no matter how high you go). But I can't imagine any pope or cardinal kneeling down and confessing to impulses of lust for power...
As for the bible - I've never found it a particularly edifying read. I read great sections of it way back in the early days of my spiritual journey, in junior high school, but I was horrified by the whole thing. Some spiritual teachers - Christian Science and the like - seem to get great spiritual inspiration from the Bible - but while there are sections that I have found enlightened, I have decided to mostly stay with the interpretations of those who can express the higher meaning.
Christianity in essence is based on the premise of being "saved" - so yes, it is an elitist system, and seems to have very little to do with the actual teachings of Jesus. As far as I can see.
Jesus himself is a different story. You have to keep in mind that only the first 4 gospels purport to be from real accounts of the life of Jesus, and that even the earliest, Mark, seems to have been written some time after Jesus' death.
On top of that, of course, we have the problem that the gospels were written in Greek, reporting the words and stories of people who spoke Aramaic, and mostly now consumed in English (or whichever other language you speak).
Many years ago, I was introduced to the Guild For Psychological Studies
(these days they have a website: https://guildsf.org/), who published some books:
“Records of the Life of Jesus" by Henry Burton Sharman
https://guildsf.org/product/records-of-the-life-of-jesus-revised-standard-edition/
and:
"Jesus' Answer to God" (also available on their website)
and "Jesus As Teacher" by Henry Burton Sharman
(Available to read for free online: https://www.jesusasteacher.com/table-of-contents)
(I have the first 2 of these books - but not the third.)
The Records is a sort of concordance of the 4 gospels, intended to sort out what Jesus actually said and did, since some of the material in the gospels seems to have been added editorial content, and Matthew especially seems to have taken liberties with his reporting and much of his gospel is not consistent with the others.
It's all presented not as some definitive scholarly exposition, but in a form intended for discussion at the various seminars held by the Guild, in order to discern what Jesus actually taught.
It's very interesting, and spiritually satisfying, and I like the approach too.
Anyway, one of the best known and non-controversial things that Jesus said was "Judge not, that ye be not judged", and so I'll just conclude by saying that, like Donald Trump, Jesus has undoubtedly been seriously misinterpreted by those who have an agenda, and is worth at least going back to the original before coming to any conclusion!
oooh... those passive aggressive pacifists, I've had my run ins with them too ;-)
Thanks for your thoughtful and nuanced reply. I'll have my episode out tonight to show what I mean by using the same systems for our collective benefits. Thanks again!
"Judge not that ye be not judged!"
It was an interesting way to tell people that they mostly project?
The full chapter of Matthew 7 goes on to describe what he does expect of his followers
"do the will of my father who is in heaven"
and in other passages Jesus says he wasn't there to abolish the law, but fulfill it, so something about the law he's referring to is important. Much of it is morally pretty upstanding and good. The 10 commandments are hardly a bad idea, most of them. Of course if you have parents that abused you, then honoring them is partly forgiving them so you aren't attached to the trauma they inflicted on you, etc. I mention that because many have said that this is one of the commandments that should be taken with a grain of salt in that context. But is it? I had many resentments to things my parents did that I thought was unfair, but I only realized I was free of them when I acknowledged that they did the best they could and made mistakes and forgiving them made me remember only the good things they did and that was something I could honor.
I'm pretty sure some detailed instructions came with those 10, and the other 600+ laws that, when you investigate them, lead you to a better place within yourself.
"Evil done in it's name"
That's a good distinction. If you look closely at any philosophy or religion you'll find the same, and that goes for Pagan religions, new age religions, buddhism, hinduism (the grandfather of the new age) and so forth.
So what's that distinction lead to?
That there is a force of evil that tries to impose itself on anything that does try to do good and you realize this the second you realize that it can work through you and you identify what good actually is and how you are programmed to look for the evil in it so as to discredit it.
Evil does exist Tereza. If you are convinced otherwise, might be a good time to ask how you became convinced to ignore something that does exist. Maybe it's easier to cope that way?
