Who is your foe?
When your governments and religious or any other institutions tell you who to hate, how often do you stop to wonder whether these said people are truly your enemies? Ah! But what of all those indiscriminate terrorists who kill countless innocents around the world? What of all those innocents that are killed in our names by these institutions that you never here about ? Don’t you think these so-called “terrorists” consider us in Britain, U.S.A , Europe as the terrorists against them and their people? Don’t you think they’ve tried to reconcile with those belligerent toward them in whatever way they perceive ? So, there are obstinate people. But they’re all over the world, not restricted to certain regions as our media wish us to believe so. And yes, these people’s media organs are just as blindly prejudiced as ours. “We all know this” , you cry with a patronizing air of superiority. Then why do you allow your governmental and religious organs to convince you that they are justified in bombing millions of children around the world to satisfy their blood lust, yet rage at the so-called “terrorists” for their retaliation at what they believe is justification for the trespasses we commit against them.
What can we do about it?
Think first before you share your governmental and religious media’s blind hatred. Fish out the story from the other sides of the argument at hand. Of course not all the facts are going to come out at first, trust must be built up and this needs time to accumulate. If we refuse to allow this due to our obstinate prejudices and sanctimony's, we remain stagnated, embroiled as we are in eternal strife and misery.
It appears to me, and quite a few others, that we have only evolved our technologies, and these only due to the exigencies of war, but not ourselves. On this account we have stagnated.
How many of us believe, from our cosy armchairs or local public houses that we could do a better job than those in government, given the opportunity to do so? I for one but none of us can do it alone, this is obvious enough. I have asked members of the Islamic community whether they would be prepared to bury their religious and political hatchets to join forces with fellow community members of other faiths and political persuasions but they claim it impossible, yet "London Citizens" are doing so. The prevailing conflict between Israel and Palestine is also testimony to man’s obstinacy when all believe they are right beyond any doubts. So can we ever evolve, thus dissolve this impasse?
Can local communities around the world club together to override or bypass their non-serving councils and M.P’. s that drag their heels using bureaucracy as an excuse to evade their responsibilities to their respective communities? Are they even prepared to?
Faced with this apathy I can at present only consider creating new communities from those of us who won’t share this apathy, and so allow those who choose to persist in wallowing in the stew of their miseries and petty hatreds to continue.
Should I be so callow? Should I not consider that like myself many of the world’s population have been denied the adequate standard of education those in government have been blessed with yet abuse in order to control and manipulate to further theirs and their masters’ agendas?
This I do consider and also believe should be tackled only the presiding system will not allow it for the obvious reasons. Allowing people to govern themselves! Whatever next?
Yes, whatever next indeed. Peace on Earth, eventually ; global wealth distributed evenly and fairly ; egalitarian justice for all. Pipe dreams you say. Yes, while we do nothing about it. While we continue to allow the global elitists to tell us who we should hate or ally ourselves to in hatred of others we had no animosity toward the day before.
I’m sure there are many other factors involved that I have not explored here due to ignorance or forgetfulness on my part, so I invite you to send your feed back and further insights on this issue so I can add them to this page.
The Enigma of Plurality of Gods in Monotheistic Religons
"Let Us Make Man In OUR Own Image"
This has puzzled me for ages until I read that we are the creation of reptilian beings passing themselves off as gods to ignorant folk of past ages who knew no better.
If this be so, we are either the slaves of the Annanuki or Nephilim, or the more benevolent Watchers or Eloihim.I haven't discovered enough evidence to persuade me of either camp, but both notions seem equally probable.I have dicovered that according to some sources the Elohim are creator beings creaying on the physical spectrum on behalf of the Infinite Creator At least, if we were not created by them, we are influenced by both their positive and negative energies Please note that energy in itself is neither good or bad only positively or negatively charged, so I use the terms positive and negative here in a theological context of good or bad..The Infinite Creator source, having created them both beforehand, has left us to unravel the connundrum for ourselves, it seems.
Meanwhile, the Nephilim wish to keep us enslaved to them through our violence and hatred of each other and sense of seperation-to believe we are seperate from our Creator source and ourselves ,indoctrinated,as we are,by religon, politics and other issues of seemingly genetic differences.The Elohim wish us to evolve with a little helping hand once in a while when we empasse ourselves to the brink of auto destruction and extinction. So what's in it for these Elohim? Their own spiritual evolution through aiding us and possibly other lesser evolved species in the universe.The Nephilim will only keep us from annihilation to save themselves from their own-.A lack of negative energy to suck on, our negativity being their oxygen. Think on this. As mentioned elsewhere on these pages, there are beings and ideas in Creation far beyond our normal scope of thinking. However, this knowledge is not inaccessable unless you prefer to remain ignorant. The ingestion of psychoactive vegetation and fungi are a door to other perceptions. This, the governments of the world fuelled by greed and hatred know only too well, and so outlaw the use of such psychoactive agents, yet the main ingrediant of many,D.M.T., is produced by the peneal gland in the brain of almost every mammal including homo sapien .We could not dream without it, or visualize whilst in the waking state. These psychoactive agents open recepters in the brain, thus releasing hormones to release certain filters thus allowing more accesss to our D.N.A. profile.This does not occur with narcotics.
If you ignore the media vilification of Dr. Timothuy Leary, and read his work, notably The Politics of Ecstacy, you will discover that he proposed well supervised and responsible attitudes to L.S.D and other psychedelic sessions,so people would not need to "freak out" on the streets disturbing other people and endangering themselves or others around them. He preferred sessions in nature or at home with responsible experienced explorers/voyagers as guides. He even proposed pilot licenses for such voyages into the mind as the whole knowledge of Creation is there, in our D.N.A molecules, just waiting our readiness to explore it all. But as I said earlier, you don't have to. It's no big deal to remain as you are, we only ask that you refrain from preventing us who do, from doing so and stop dismissing what we see as fantasy or delusion when it can be as real for you if you choose it to.
A Little Piece On Time
Do you find there’s always never enough?
Or have you discovered you can control time for your own needs?
Of course time is relative to the individuated and collective mind of not only man but all species.
Is this all too obvious? Then I’ll shut up and leave you to your own devices, only I thought I might give you readers the benefit of my experiences hard earned by many mishaps.
Needing to get somewhere fast but finding yourself getting nowhere fast?
You obviously know why you need to pick up speed, but is speed a necessity?
I find contingency planning an obvious remedy to frustration when transport facilities fail you. This involves, for me at least, a plan a, b, & c plus affirmative thinking, I shall get there in time.
Stop fretting at the time. Constantly checking your watch adds to your frustration, thus making the possibility of your late arrival all the more likely.
You are in fact affirming to the Universe that you want to be late. Don’t be so silly, you’re probably saying right now. Bear me out here.
It being obvious to you that the Universe is made of atoms incorporating particles of differing vibrations and frequencies, it may not be obvious, due to our western paradigm that the
entire Universe is a conscious Being/Entity . It “listens” to us on a higher level than our egos will allow Us to believe and responds accordingly. So, worrying about not arriving at your destination is affirming to the Universe that you do want to be late. Affirming that all will be o.k. is doing just that.
Now, when you’re travelling at leisure, does the intended destination mean the beginning of your
adventure or does it, like for myself, begin when I lock the door to my home behind me and ends when I return? If the former, then I say you’re missing out on a huge chunk of your experience.
This I have noticed with so many of the younger student generation on my travels. In Asia, for instance, they will often opt for the overnight comfy leisure bus showing irritatingly loud martial arts movies, the windows of course blacked out or curtained over. Call me old fashioned but I much prefer a rickety old bus that bumps over the potholes all the way, rubbing shoulders with natives that are interested in talking with you than silently minding their own business. You also
get to see the country you’re travelling through with it’s small villages and towns that the bus will often stop at for a short tea or meal break as opposed to the inevitable motorway pit stops. For me time is of no real consequence now that I have learned these valuable lessons. It neither drags or flies whilst at leisure since having to be nowhere at any particular time [ I never make reservations just turn up and search for vacant accommodation ,whilst travelling].
If certain signposts on nature walks or forest trails state an approximate time of arrival at a chosen destination, do you try to beat, it thus racing past all you should be watching? This I have discovered to my dismay of the youth of today.
Even commuting to work has become virtually hassle free, thinking this way [ but this could be more thanks to my boss’s flexibility with time keeping].
DRIVING THE SLOW LANE OF LIFE
Those habituated to living in the fast lane of life usually either envy or cannot abide those of us who do opposite. They have been indoctrinated to the philosophy of 'time is money' and 'tempis fugit' since primary school, as was I. They sneer down their noses at those they presume to be 'worse off than they, due to the stereotyping they have been spoonfed in order to measure their pecunary and materialistic successes by.
Now, if these people who do so to me , bothered to speak to me in order to discover why I am so content with ambling along with my barrow, sweeping the streets at my own pace, they would find the reason I can do so with head and back held upright is because I am successful in following my own path instead of others. They would discover that this service I perform, along with previous services since leaving school 30 years ago, have taken me around the globe three times, so far. Not that I have visited every country or continent, that's not the point. The point is, that I have visited every country I have ever wanted to as well as others, though not initially intended, when opportunity arose, I took it and learned from the experiences, pleasant and unpleasant, even if years after the event. Some event occurs or someebody triggers off the memory, and so I am more able to deal with the present situation or offer advice to that person etc.
An anology comes to mind of driving the motorway. The motorist has no time to admire the scenery unfolding eitherside because he/she has to focus attention on the road ahead and behind. The passenger, however, has plenty of scope to enjoy the scenery, converse with the motorist, navigate, feed etc. Taking the A or better still B country roads, the motorist can slow down and so take in the scope of the scenery and focus on the road simultaneously.
Now the normal philosophy presume passengers in business circles to be parasites. This is a fallacy, as I have proved to myself, many times. Just because you have no interest in making big fat profits for your bosses, yet wish to serve the customer fairly instead of ripping them off with 'dodgy sounding' meal deals, designed to hoodwink them into spending far more than they intended, I do not consider that being a parasite passenger. To inform the prospective customer that an item is presently unavailable before wasting their time waiting in a lengthy cue, is far more customer service orientated than dissappointing them, when having reached the front, and then attempting to offer them an unsatisfactory alternative . This leaves them understandably frustrated and angry and sofar less likely to visit your shop next time they pass by. An apologetic notice will, however, tempt them back if they happen to pass your vicinity again. If you are again temporarily out of stock, you have lost them for good.
Another example being the difference in customer service provided by bosses of the 'old school' and the 'milking the customer for all they can' school of today. Upon leaving school, I worked as a warehouse assistant in a small shop that had big customers, selling window display decor to all the well known department stores and chains. The little old man of Russian descent, who owned this shop, started out as I did, as a warehouse assistant but in Selfridges, in 1926. His personal passion was to start his business, slowly, but surely, using the 'old school' philosophy of the customer being always right, he collected his huge clientele. Although I disagree with the customer being always right, I do believe some form of diplomacy that neither abuses the customer or comprimses you, the business by fawning to them should be exercised. Unfortunately, upon my boss' death, the company was sold off to the first bidders. These people turnred out not only to have no respect for their inherited staff, but none to their inherited customers. Corners were cut in the quality of stock being bought as well as packing materials for shippimg to said clientele. My own position was being comprimised by the 'new old man', who thought he could do my job better than me because he had command of the computer, but had no idea of the nature of the warehouse system I had set up to run smoothly, so decided it time to move on in life and let him get on with it .
To return to motorized passengers, my experience of hitch-hiking has proved a valuable experience in co-operative service. A motorist will stop to pick me up if they are bored and need the company and conversation. Some only need the company and so are not chatty, this is fine as you are providing this service to them.Either way, one serves the other equibly. Those who choose not to stop have their personal reasons and that's perfectly fine too, no need to take umbridge, just wave them pleasantly and await the appropriate motorist. With patience, they will arrive in due course.
These experiences have been a factor setting me on the path to discover how serving each other can once again take the place of pure moneygrubbing ethics in the market economy.Which values can we ,as a global community, set ourselves, in order to measure wealth, health and happiness to an agreeable standard?
Do we actually need money as cash in our pockets, or only need to adjust our values in order to use the present tools of commerce responsibly, independant of greed in all it's manifestations?
So, how can we begin to live in the slow lane of life you propose?, I hear being asked. Why do you need to make more money to feel satisfied or successful, especially when it always results in a higher cost of living for everyone? Others want pay rises, the government slaps on more V.A.T. on goods and services,then you demand more pay increases to stay ahead of the game. Isn't it all a bit 'Alice in Wonderland' ? So when will we ever learn?
Suppose that everyone in the world earned a minimum salary of £30,000, equivelant in their respective currencies.Those who wish to earn more should pay the proportionate level in taxation to the natural resourses they consume over the standard average. in order to replenish the resourses and/or offer reasonable alternatives. Taxes indexed to increases in pollution due to increases in consumption is already in the pipeline.This could be the 'green tax'. Should we be taxed on our earnings or products and services consumed? I would favour taxing our consumption than our earnings, but would this prevent fat cats hiding their consumption as they hide their earnings in tax havens?Would £30,000 cover the cost of living if all taxes were linked to retail consumption? Do we tax at source or at retail outlets? But which source, manufacuring/processing or set a standard tax level for global enviromental clean-up that can be indexed to consumption level of individual ?This would mean taxing individual earnings though, or are there other measures available?
What if our newly realized values prove that we can live for less?Do we lower the minimum salary to prevent impending resource waste, or keep to £30,000 until values change with suceeding generations yet raise the consumption tax level to compensate?
Of course, in this present state of social hierarchy paradigm with the need to feel superior to others in order to measure success by, such a scheme would be disagreeable .We need to be re-educated in all areas of modern life to discover how we can live at a slower pace yet still remain economically solvent, yet also be spiritually solvent. Can we bring our blind conspicuous consumerism to a halt in favour of a modest ,responsible consumption? Expect less manufactured produce in favour of more homespun ,handcrafted produce that takes time and skillful dedication to produce, and services that take just as much to perform. Isn't there enough manufactured produce in the world today without producing more with the advertising hype to hoodwink you into believing you are somehow inferior if you do not purchase said product? Auto manufacturers, I find to be the biggest culprits at this game. Every other. ad on T.V. and drama presentation is sponsored by auto manufacurers. Couldn't they delay this senseless greed by waiting until some designer has come up with something truly revolutionary in reliability and enviromentally friendly than a few extra gadgets? Meanwhile, produce less of currrent models until they wear out in due course, and maybe return to the more traditional composition of engine to allow those motorists who love to tinker with their vehicles to do so rather than hand them over to cowboy'fixers' .
Ditto for household appliances. Wait until they are on their last legs before rushing out to buy the latest model that will probably last half as long anyway.
Also the high price set upon repairing goods has skyrocketed since the 80's This obviously to force us to buy new by manufacturers reducing or ceasing the availability of spare parts ,and extra necessary worktime spent on repairs. All this and more has added to consumption pollution. So should we tax these manufacturers or us , the retail consunmer? Since the manufacturer will obviously offset this tax onto their prices, I believe it should give us the opportunity to practice our responsibilty as enviromentally savvy consumers, to boycott such wasteful consumption. One author of such issues, Neale Donald Walsh, suggested that we partake in share scheme of domestic appliances, such as vacuum cleaners and electirc irons, as they are not always in use. This, however could lead to neighbour hood arguments as some unscruperlous persons are likely to hog said appliances, sell them off and blame other neighbours for the loss or breakage etc. However, local drycleaners and landerettes could provide a hire service for such appliances [ I know some do, but a wider application of such a scheme could be helpful] with a deposit paid to cover loss or damage, returned less hire fee upon safe return of appliances. Of course, the appliance should be tested before and after, to save arguments of obvious natures. This would put the onus on repairing and replacing worn out appliances on the laundrette or drycleaners and save the consumer credit indebtedness if appliance needs replacement at a financially awkward time.
Would it work just aswell for office equipment?
By taking government into our own hands, not by violent revolution, which has done nothing in the past but create a coup d'etat change of dictatoral rule, but by practicing Gandhi's method of peaceful non co-operation - Ahimsa, we could halt the payment of taxes to superferlous government whims , cut their expenses, their lavish and extravagant banquets, held at our expense,make them commute to work with the rest of us so they can experience for themselves what a farce and shambles the public transport system is due to thier greed for share dividends resulting in cuts to maintainance and service. Taking also account of all the other cuts they intend to cover their stockmarket bulls ups. Discover how much we should be charged, and do so ourselves. Is this viable, would the, say, energy bosses, side with the government by refusing to be paid for said energy and services unless it be through government? If so, it looks as though we are fucked! But are we? Anybody out there know of a viable scheme?
No intention of starving them or their ambassadorial chums, I propose a modest buffet many of us could afford our guests at a party, should suffice, along with a banner to the effect of 'Feed your country's poor before stuffing your own faces' , to remind them of their true service to their respective nations.
Cut the Ministry of Death budget to reform it as a Ministry of Life. As I have mentioned elsewhere on this blogsite, we should turn the armed forces into a peace, rescue and aid corp.They could keep their organizations, ranking and disciplines, only work as a more united cooperative force The diverse arms of the military should be redeployed in order to use their expert logistics skills , knowledge and experiences to supplement the world's existng rescue and aid services. In the coming decades of Earth changes, we shall be sorely in need of them. Isn't this alreasdy in action via the UN? What with guns and missiles, I answer. Instead of killing our percieved opponents, why not sleep gas them , then round them up for 'debriefing' as we did with the Nazis after WWII, in order to assess their individual level of extremism or fundamentalism.Could this be done with extremists everywhere, in the so-called civilized western societyalso, but without branding anyone a CRIMINAL, not even P.O.W.s ?Ask a vetrean P.O.W. of World War I & II whether they considered themselves CRIMINAL for the circumstances they found themselves in. For, if Saddam Hussain and Osa Bin Laden are to be labeled criminals, so then are G.W.Bush, Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, among a list of others too lengthy to mention here.
Our taxes could be much better utilized paying for the necessary medical and rescue/aid equipment that allows for a force to persue their new global role of life giving instead of taking.
Freeing taxes from killing we could support our schools to be more educationally minded, than the usual indoctrination of merely teaching them to pass exams, and pretending that is enough of an education for them, as was demonstrated on John Humphries' B.B.C.2 programe, broadcast on Sept. 20th. Discover what the pupils themselves want from life and help them pursue those aims.,instead of government statistics bent on cutting costs by closing schools. Of course , many children have no idea what they want to do when leaving school, but at least ask them what interests them, so the teacher can weave it into a curriculum for their educational advancement until they have decided for themselves which career or vocation they wish to persue.
But how can we persuade the extremists in established western governments to be re-educated? Am I being naive or patronizing?
We could refuse to vote for them if they refuse to co-operate in a re-educational scheme of holistic government and economics.Yes, empower ourselves to choose which civil servants to serve us by proportional representation and a system of accountability to US, the nation, not only to their 'School tie 'chums.
Should scientific research be halted until we reach a state of global equality? We should , of course choose which areas of research are necessary to continual growth, such as medicine, but do we truly need more electronic gadgetry and toys?Do we really need to spend so much money on space projects while there is still so much want and strife here on Earth. Do we really need to litter our Moon and Mars with McDonald's and K.F.C.? Isn't there enough of our junk floating aimlessly about space already? If the shortsighted politicians and financiers bothered to consider the cost of neglecting obsolete sattelites and space stations, byinvesting in methods of dismantling and recycling them, a lot of money and hassle would have been saved in dodging the debris from these discarded hunks of machinery today.
I believe such savings would serve us much better if invested in the education of potential young minds on Earth in a way that allows them to think beyond our present academic paradigms, no matter their social or economic backgrounds, thus allowing them to unlock their own potentials for the benefit of us all.
This leads me to another proposition, that may be in force today. Refuse to award patents to inventors and designers who do not provide sufficient methods of recycling or responsible disposal of their products. All too often now I see the wheely-bin crossed out logo on electronic/electrical items but no instructions on how to dispose of them responsibly.
Now, let us move forward to an age of economic security for the services we perform to our community. How do we gain sou; satisfaction by this? Previous articles on this blog have answered this, I believe. Achievement is not percieved in quantative terms, but qualiative. Recognition and respect from our peers [colleages and management] in the work place for our endevours, when merit is warranted. Positive encouragement to do better instead of taunts and undeserved beratement do much more to increase productivity. One experiment in an office block was to change the level of lighting. Even though the original lighting was restored, that somebody cared enough to try, counted with the staff and so productivity increased for a time. Did the management ask the staff which lightng they preffered, I cannot say. Maybe you could ask the management of your office to adjust the lighting at certain times of the day, along with heating and air conditioning to see which of them encourages more productivity, for you all.
How we invest in our elders by including them in our social life instead of locking them away in homes when they still have so much to contribute. In Native American society, it is the elders that raise the children whilst the parents work As labels for indigenous peoples change so frequently these days I have decided to stick to Native Americans in this case, they know who I mean, and blow the political correctness fascists!
How can we slow the pace of life yet deal with unemployment?
As we do not progress, as individuals, at the same rate, yet the government insist we should, as we have discussed earlier, there need not be a forced glut upon the workplace, if we allow those adults amongst us ,who are prepared to take up full-time holistic re-education, to do so. Those who are not yet prepared can remain in the workplace until they realize the advantages of doing so, thus freeing up space for youth leaving school, roundly educated and prepared to do justice in the workplace.
Some scheme, more economically viable method for maintaining the schools and students should be sought ,of course. The present system of enslaving students to the banks before they've even left education is purely INSANE!!!
One proposal I have thought of to defer malingerers, is a non-interest fee to be charged on all students until they graduate with the required qualifications. The fee will then be re-imbursed to them. Those who choose to drop-out or fail to turn up for exams will have to pay the full cost of the course plus inconvieniance costs for wasting tutor time and depriving other dtudents of places on courses.Who agrees, and how can it be financed? How was it financed before New Labour [I read New Fascism] scrapped free further education [or indoctrination]? Could we free university professors and lecturers from obligatory text bookwritimg to supplement their salaries and so concentrate their energies to serving their students, or is this what they need to spur themselves on? Can cutting superfluous government spending really pay for all this?
Howabout taxation on harmful products such as tobacco and dubious quality alcohol ? How many of the taxes on these products actually find their way to funding the N.H.S? Do we tax tobacco and alcohol out of the reach of the many? After all, the rich are just as susceptable to cancers and organ diseases as the poor.To abolish and criminalize smokrs and drinkers is obviously not the way. How about taxing the individuals for treating their tobacco and alcohol based diseases, instead of penalising us all?It has been considered but is it viable?
Re Developing independant currency and banking systems
Concerning possible abuse of your currency and banking system, a transparent accounting system could be used ,allowing community members to discover who is abusing your system and so boycott any further credit allowance until a solution can be found to deal with the solution equibly, assuming the guilty party are willing to comply. Those who refuse to allow this transparency can also be boycotted, being permitted to use only cash in notes or coin for transactions within the community as they would in normal society. This would allow for more interest free transactions due to comunity trust .
Set a flexible credit allowance that relieves guilt stress for those that find themselves over drawn but condidered as safe 'risk' members of the community, such as local businesses that serve value to the community. They could be supported by an upfront credit account.E.G customers could deposit a managable sum with their grocer, who would take account of the credit spent, thus allownig the grocer to meet unexpected overheads, whilst the customer benefits by the choice of paying from the deposit account or with ready community cash.
Decide on what criteria you set your local currency. Do you set a n hourly rate for everybody irrespective of their service to the community. Does it correspond with the nation's currency values, or your own? If the community owns the land ,who pays the rent and how?How does the community set rate for energy consumption?
If everybody in the community agrees on hours worked for their goods and services, does this create more or less difficulties? Some deem this too radical approach while others may find it feasible who agree on a wage at par with other community members
Trust seems to be the major factor here. Can we trust our neighbour has put in X hours work to justify Y hours credit? How can we prove to our neighbour that we have done likewise? Is it really, on the otherhand, down to how much you are willing to pay for produce and services? You can do with out a new dining table so long as your present one sill serves its purpose, but for how long can you survive without food if the only grocer in town is charging too much? Will he/she buckle in to your boycott before you starve? Obviously you create healthy competition by allowing a rival grocer.
When there are no financial organizations to fall back on or measure by,how do we justify an economic rate of exchange having no trust among community members?
Do we boycott sales and services to those who refuse to work or otherwise contribute to the community? Do we show them the community gate or escort them outta town?
It seeems that a currency based on hours worked is too radical for some to be feasible for others who agree to serve on a wage parity with everyone else in the community. multi-dimensional curenciescould be a way forward, however, as people acceptvouchers for air and sea miles. Supermarkets reward loyal customers with credit points towards discounts on further shopping.
One idea is poly capitalism, based on normal manufactured capital, social capital and natural capital If we are to believe in other currencies, we must accept money is not a fixed commodity as the traditionaly minded wish to believe. It has a conciousness, much like water and atomic particles; it behaves according to how you think about it.So let's think about how we can behave differently about money.
If £ sc are paid to care workers and other voluntary services as well as those caring for aged or sick relatives and allowed to circulate on par with £ sterling, the local community will acknowledge those who pay with £ sc, so long as they are not recirculated amongst the rest of us. To allieviate this, shops and other businesseses will have to be able to exchange the £ sc or have them credited to their accounts. But doesn't that entail several different acccounts? Well maybe, but aren't many of us running multiple bank accounts anyway? Are banks willing to co-operate in this way, or is this what we should be creating our own banks for? We could pay our council taxes in £ sc which could then circulate amongst those who work in non profit sectors of local councils. Does this mean we should be paid in £ sc and £ sterling? Why not? If we know how much we pay to municipal council taxes regular;ly, we could demand this amount to be credited to our £ sc account, the remainder in £ sterling and £ ntl accounts. This would mean that our councils would not be able to syphon off taxes for their own ends behind our backs.
To do this effectively we should employ , as mentioned elsewhere,trusted auditors to calculate how much is spent by our local councils againdt how much actually utilizes the services we demand and expect. We can then asertain from the results how much to boycott from the council taxes, thus paying the currect amount in £sc to the respective services and if any left over to reasonable funding for projects benefacting the community. But why not go further, if we cannot trust our local councillors anymore than the ministers in Whitehall and Downing Street, by taking controll of how we pay relevant suppliers and servers such as gas, water, electricity boards et.al. Should we call them Social accountants and Auditors?Again the need for transparancy of transactions. TRUST
Could £sc be used for donations?If a reputable system of pooling all donations into one 'pot' to be divided equally amongst all registered charities by the social administrators who could be paid in £sc as oposed to £ sterling, thus averting the greedy administrators who only wish to turn a quick profit. Am I being naive here in believing that charities should not have to pay administration costs out of the donations people freely give?
It ha been suggested that companies and corporations can gain/aquiore £sc by accepting payment for goods and services from customers in £sc. E.G. a company supplies schools with equipmentat a discount. If doing so, they can recieve tax discounts If a solicitor provides legal aid to a non profit organization, making out part invoice in £sc. Meanwhile employees, take timr off work to carry out voluntary or charity work of their choice. Advertisers could pay a social fee for using public space for their ads. After all, we the public don't demand these ads thrust upon us whilst youth art is condemned as criminal graffittti. I suppose because they pay no tax on it, it is deeemed illegal. Read 'Blessed Are The Chalk Markers' on my misscellania page. In India, billboard ads are painted as are ads on brick and concrete walls. Maybe if British advertisers sponsered these youths by employing them as ad artists. Paying them in £sc, tax discounts could be furnished or fee wavered for using public spaces to promote youth artistic talent .Why should only university trained youth get all the plum advertisng jobs? After all they are courting Banksy now. But then these young artists may not want to suck up to corporate advertisment. But then, they could create a demand for less greed guzzling approach to advertising.ASBO the idea that you are somehow inferior or lacking if you don't buy the desired product being advertised. Cut out useless, blind consumerism. ASBO ads that tell you yesterday's cleaning agent does not clean as effectively as the new product from the same brand company. They all say their product kills 99% germs, so what's so new about the new product except maybe the aroma which is supposed to be lemony or rosey white etc!
If the economic market , as we are told to believe, runs on the assumption of scarcity,is it to be presumed there is no alternative?
Of course there is an alternative. Those who are running the scarcity assumption, obviously wish to keep themselves pecunairy wealthy if not spiritually so ,and so deny any alternative. So how can we turn this around to a wealth of abundance? Answer: Slow down consumption.to decrease carbon footprinting. Invest in the handcrafted produce of developing countries thus enabling them to produce quality goods at a fair price for ALL. Lower the demand for poor quality manufactured produce quaranteed to break down after two or less years after you've been conned into taking out a five year warranty that cancels out your free one years' standard guarantee. The more people in developed countries engage in handcrafted production, the more able are we to judge the correct price to pay for others' handcrafted produce. Reliance on factory manufactured produce has made us forget the true value of our neighbour's produce, I feel, myself included. When we haggle in the markets of the developing world, are we depriving the market traders of a meal by demanding such a low price?Are they acqueasing because they are despirate for a sale, or is the lowest price they are willing to come down to the true value of the goods, profit margin included?
But when the natural resourses are owned by global stock exchange businesses, how can the smaller craftsman make a decent profit margin when they have no ownership over those natural resources. No controlover which trees to fell or how many, for instance, how can they successfully manage their own enviroment. so there is enough to hand down to future generations to use but not abuse?
Of course time spent on engaging in handcrafted produce and then selling, demands we spend less time money-grubbing for the corporate bosses. So how do we demand this time from them?Refuse to work overtime [usually unpaid for executives] whilst commuting from work and then at home without risking the sack? Could you afford to sacrifice that bonus for NOT securing that multi-million pound deal? Would doing so too often lead you to recieving your P45 at the end of the week/month?
What does your family time really mean to you?
you may argue that if I don't work harder or longer, I won't have enough cash to supply my family's needs. Ask 5your family whether family time is more important than material wealth? Teenagers would probably answer the latter whilst younger children the former. So judge for yourselves upon their responses whether your time is better spent slaving for the boss or 'giving' to your family.
Multi-dimensional currencies could be a way forward, however,as people do accept vouchers for air and sea miles. Supermarkets and other brand name chainstores reward their customer's loyalty with points toward discounts. During the Englih Civil War of the 1640's silver plate was cut up to suppliment the lack of silver coinage During W.W.II we used ration cards and in U.S.A during the 1930's depression, a variety of local currencies evolved Today,there are other forms of local currencey within businesses and among hyperspace communities, butnothing ,as yet, on a more global or national scale. One option could be poly-capitalism based on three tiers of "Manufactured Capital", "Social capital" and "Natural capital". If we are to believe in other currencies, we must accept that money is not a fixed concept as the traditional economists would have us believe. It has a conciousness, much like particles that collude to form living matter such as water. Yes water has a conciouness. It reads the intent of the beholder and acts accordingly. So, if you think and feel negatively whilst handling and drinking water, it will not nourish you as well as if you were thinking positvely or showed it gratitude. So, as we should be thinking and feeling about not only water, but our food also, we should do likewise with money. So let's think about how we can behave differently about money. Use our imagination to fuel diverse responses from money to allow it to work for the benefit of the Earth as an complete entity.
The Native Americans believe that if you don't use something, you lose it.. As a lad, my dad told me that indians will present a gift to you and then reclaim it when they wanted it back.. The connotation of this ,from my dad's point of view, was one of either trickery or meanness. Now, I didn't think to ask whether he meant American indians or those from India. I assumed the latter. Now, three decades later, becoming interested in the minds of Native Americans, I discovered that if you don 't use the gift given to you, you are dishonouring the gift, or any item, in fact. So they feel they have the right and duty to reclaim it and pass it on to someone who will. Should we have the right and duty to do this to those who hoard or otherwise abuse currencies? I believe we should.
Ancient cultures gave votive offerings of monefrom the atmosphere per anny to the deities, but these were of small denominations, possibly a useful way of disposing of worn currencies, as opposed to wasting it as the Bank of England burns worn bank notes. Could those notes be better utilized by pulping and recycling them? What I am stressing here is, that we should be taking a more responsible attitude, thus honouring money as a concious energy, not a lifeless thing., to be strangled and twisted to our will, as Sir Francis Bacon advised about nature, back in the 17th century.
Above I mentioned poly-capitalism. What is meant by it , or should I say how can it be applied and utilized? Along with the normal GBP or £ sterling, suppose we add SBP = Social Britsh Pound =£sc and NBP = Natural British Pound = £ntl.These can only operate and circulate within their specified markets. £sc to service labour and social and municipal services, £ntl to service enviromental concerns and £ sterling for the usual capitalist commodities markets. But is this realistic? How can diverse currencies service diverse sectors in this manner?
Let's then look at the £sc. Why should our social services be manipulated by the stock exchange or political party whims? Why shouldn't we as citizens, decide how our council taxes are used to service us, as living cities?.Why not look at it this way. Since we are concious souls and without us, as city concious beings, there would be no need of cities, we are the cities.The concrete, steel and glass, bricks and mortar, are the more solid representations of how we think of our selves as living spaces. Similar with money. If the credit we use for consumption is 96% of all recorded world's currency circulation leaving only 4% in cash coin and notes; U.K. circulation being £1.6 trillion in credit :£960million cash according to 2006 figures, what does this say then about who we think we are?
So, then, haven't we the right and duty to take back the governing and funding of our living spaces from the abusers?By instituting the £sc as a currency for paying us wages so that we can fund the maintenance of us, living cities, we can regain honour and respect for our fellow citizens by being responsible for how we do so. Undo the damage Margaret Thatcher unleashed with her 'everybody for themselves ' attitude. Slap an ASBO on isolation! Prevent old people from dying alone and uncared for because the state finds no reason to keep them alive, and so cut welfare.services. Fund the proper education of our children so they can make appropriate life choices for themselves instead of having jobs thrust upon them by uncaring school career advisors. 'Advisors' being a sick joke in itself. Incentives for school pupils to work for. Not to stop them misbehaving in class. This I believe to be counter productive, but to encourage them to help those in their class who are slower to catch up, for example. The aim being to make them feel important, but not arrogantly so,but necessary, needed. Self respect in a sense of fullfilment engendering a community spirit that dispenses with the need to kill to gain respect in their youth community. Need I continue with examples, there are so many? So how can it work with the usual banks and corporations in control of supply of £ sterling? By creating our own banks, could we recycle £ sterling into £sc for our use? Would this not be mixing the currencies' circulation? Maybe, maybe not. Do we need to create our own banks ,or engender pressure on the existing financial instutions to change their scruples? Encourage them to deepen/widen the dimensions of who they are, as we as citizens should about who we are?
Let's now look at carbon currency.
Gaia managesto remove 13bn tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere per year. Humans exhume 33tonnes CO2 per year.@ 6.5bn population=2 tonnes per person.
Suppose 1 climate change curency unit {C.C.C}= 1Kg CO2, each quota per head=2000 CCC credited to a climate account in £ntl ea year. Since we in the E.U. would have used up our quota at present rate of fossil fuel consumption by spring, we will have to buy up from those who have surplus credit in CCCThey would then acquire £sc or £ sterling equivelants for their countries to suppliment their small earnings.
This of course will allow us , as individuals, to realise how much we are a ctually consuming vs. other societies and so kerb our consumption so a not to be in the 'ecological red', since we only pay attention to such issues when it hits our pockets.But what of the fuel guzzling giants such as oil companies? Hundreds of thousands of £'s or $'s mean little to them when they make millions per day. Green taxes have been mentioned earlier, but how can they be implmented so as to make a consideable hole in their bank accounts if they continue to guzzle so much fuel? How can a tax be levied that cannot be off loaded onto the consumer?Could payment in £sc or £ntl be appropriate?
Can we calcuate the £sc rate on what social services would cost if those who give voluntarily were paid as well as all hidden overheads such fuel , tax and insurance for minibuses or rental of church/community premises for social functions are considered . What about all the health issues that are not covered by the state that could be serviced by £sc?I'm thinking that enviromental and socialm concerns should be linkedby £sc and £ntl or C.C.C. and pure commerce by £sterling and euros. As mentioned earlier, our taxes to the state could be paid in £sterling whilst taxes to local councils in £sc or £ntl to pay for local fuel consumption, social services and shopping. But what of petrol and diesel for vehicles, £sc or £ntl? I think £ntl / C.C.C.
So how can we cut our indebtedness to the £ntl/C.C.C. economy at our present rate of consumption?Well, an idea I mentioned above could be for employers alowing their emplyees time out to contribute ecologically or socially in exchange for £sc and £ntl/C.C.C.The employers couldgain in tax credit, if that could be feasible, to encourage them to do more for the enviromentby lowering consumption based products like cars and Hi-Fi -DVD-i-pod players, as wellas 'white goods' unless they are manufactured to last more than 10 years. An extra dividend in C.C.C's could be paid for each year over the expected life span of the product. Also a return to the repair services at affordable rates that discourage throwing the product away because buying a new one is more financially economical. Repairing would be enviromentally economical if subsidized by C.C.C credits.The customer pays for repairs in £ntl /C.C.C.'s. But am I missing the point here, if £sc and £ntl can be exchanged with £sterlng? This is natural since I am no economist, only a novice that at present hasn't yet gathered all the relevant statistics to percieve the overview clearly. But this will be amended as I evolve this blogsite. Stay tuned.
To be cont.
Power v Powerlessness
There are many definitions of power concerning those who truly have it and those who only think they do. For me, those who only think they do are the ones, I find, who either bellow and bawl down their employees’ necks thus goading production with threats and coercion, or use small minded tactics to make their employees feel small and insignificant. Reggie Perrin’s boss C. J. in both the original series and present remake illustrate this perfectly. Both are powerless, lacking true leadership and so compensating for their own inadequacies with bluster and berating. Result: Well, many of us know how we feel and react to such measures and the lack of interest in quality production, the bare minimum standard ensuing. This, I feel, as I’m sure many of us do, is one of, if not the major factor, in the wholesale shoddy quality of produce and services in the world today. Since it is those who demand high profit margins and share dividends by manipulating production and service with ridiculous, irritating , hindering product quota targets who set such shoddy quality standards, in hopes of duping unsuspecting investment clients, hold such power over us, are we not the powerless also?
In contrast, I think you all feel, is the employer of true leadership who inspires leadership qualities in you, the employee. Who listens to your grievances and helpful input to increase productivity and smoother running of company or department. The employer who treats staff as prodigies, managers in the making, who can successfully take the reins whenever the employer decides to move on, holds true power. In contrast, the employer who fears being past over by powerful employees thus engaging coercion to keep their position, are bereft of such power.
So, how can we turn this around to everybody in the world’s advantage?
The most drastic, even though on the surface seeming perfectly logical, action would be to stop consuming all sub quality produce until it meets the quality we demand. Drastic, as this will entail the loss of jobs to many in the world who can ill afford the loss of income, how can we remedy the situation? How can we empower ourselves as well as those less financially situated without increasing the economic imbalance? How can we create our own companies using our collective skills and knowledge in order to produce quality goods and services yet compete on the same level as the big guys without resorting to share holding, especially when the banks refuse to lend to small concerns with little chance of repaying the loans at the present high rate of interest as well as other strings attached?
I have suggested independent small community banks/building societies to raise capital so long as the investors, you the community businesses, expect no interest nor charge it to each other.
The object being, a pool of resource, to tide yourselves over your respective slump periods and so paying back as well as investing more spare capital when business picks up. Of course this is a tall order to accept /expect since trust is such a rare commodity in the world, so I ask, for how much longer do you want to be enslaved to the bankers of greed and selfishness?
An idea has come to me recently that an interest charge could be levied by you the investers and clients of your own banks on your selves in order to help other small businesses or worthy charities get off the ground. They could then pay the reasonably agreed interest to help more businesses or charities of their choice and so on. Another way out idea could be for a system in the future, whereby all the world's financially stable population could pay a percentage of their salaries into an international fund to fund. This could put an end to organizations accosting us on the streets or spam leafletting, cold calling upon us etc.Yes it has been done by many civilizations before and present, but they don't seem to be effective. Why has OXFAM never eliminated global poverty over the past 70 years? Probably because the funds have been syphoned off by dubious channels.And how can my propsal not be also corrupted likewise? Who can we trust to distribute this fund to the worthy charities that deserve them? I don't trust the UN or other governmental institutions, do you? Any suggestions?
Assuming then that your days of such enslavement you wish to be rid of as soon as possible, I recommend that you seriously consider trusting your fellow community partners. Bury your political, religious and economic hatchets, come together in new found trust and harmony and so dig yourselves out of your collective economic holes. Sufficient capital accumulated, a market needs to be sought for such quality goods and services who are prepared to pay the initial high cost with reasonable assurances that product costs will fall once demand has increased and a reasonable profit margin found to cover overheads and keep business flourishing, having freed yourselves from shareholding corporations and other cooperatives and organizations. keeping workforce at home and abroad well catered for should be of prime importance, as discussed above. Empower them to seek the high standards of living and working/servicing you expect for yourselves. Quality will then return to you. I know schemes like this are in practice in some small way elsewhere in the world, Fair Trade chocolate and coffee for instance, but the system is most probably still enslaved to the banks. Can we truly empower ourselves economically or am I just too naive? Are there legal clauses prohibiting such motives I’m unaware of?
Education Is Power; But What Exactly Is Education?
Education is power, or so I’ve read and heard, but what exactly is education?
Not what the governments of the world dish out, that’s for sure. Do you academically tutored ones believe you are really educated because you’ve passed some qualifications? I don’t mean to undermine you only encourage those who think it enough that you have your desired academic qualifications to think again. What have your text books, written by your professors tutors and dons to meet their economic ends, neglected to inform you of in their haste to be published, thus keeping their posts and /or grants?
I suggest independent research, not rehashing online, those sources are usually incorrect or incomplete also. Search out those whose work has been vilified by the press and university authorities as well as others. I know this may sound naive and presumptuous but I have met quite a few students unwilling to look further into their chosen field of study than the indoctrination state and public funded institutions have presented to them.
The present curriculum in use over the past 130 years is stale, ineffectual and above all irrelevant to today’s children. In fact it was irrelevant 40 years ago when I started school. It’s not that the subjects themselves are irrelevant, it’s their application. I believe that schools should devise projects relevant to how we wish and expect the future of our world to be shaped. Not by imposing our ideals on the children but working with them, sharing our thoughts and feelings about the world we prefer to live in . This way we can devise a program of suitable class or school projects that encompass all the relevant subjects and more in a more dynamic, exciting and fruitful manner. Drop the old “I’m the teacher who knows better than you mere children” and embrace the “I have the experience of age but you also have insight I have either forgotten or not yet realized”.
Do we want prolific, responsible, just world leaders? Then let us help our children become those leaders we so need right now.
Do you believe we can cut crime drastically by offering the youth of the world the opportunity for meaningful contribution to their communities of their choice, not jobs thrust upon them by corporate government “Incentives” under coercion.E.g. No job, no dole or benefits?
I do, as the above discussion on education has shown.
But what about equal wages for all, no matter what the occupation or wherever in the world?
Preposterous?
Well consider the quantity of real hard cash as opposed to electronically contrived credit. Dismissing for the moment illusive credit, how could this tangible cash be equally and responsibly distributed?
A change of values is obviously needed, but how?
I propose, for example, that if the orthodox churches wish to reclaim their lost folds, they could consider redemption for past transgressions against those they have robbed, enslaved, tortured and murdered around the world in their misguided missions to proselytise at the point of a sword. Now, I don't believe Jesus ever advocated such murder and plunder that has taken place in his name over the past five centuries of colonialism, both political and religous and neither should they. Nor did he advocate the accumalation of such extravagant wealth, to be displayed in self aggrandizement or hoarded in vaults only to be viewed by a select few illuminati.
So how about returning this unecessary wealth, that goes beyond the general maintenance costs of the churches. I include neglected land whose resources are not being implimented effectively, if at all. Rather than merely churning this wealth into hard cash and credit for redistribution, sending it off to third world governments, who most probably will syphon or malapropriate said funds to fulfill their own agendas, I propose the wealth to be entrusted to honest aid and charity organisations that do not spirit donations away under the dubious euphanism of "administrative costs". I believe charities should be administered free of charge. So, whoever out there knows why they are not, please do comment . These responsible organizations, knowing who truly deserve this redistribution of wealth and how it can be most effectively implimented to empower the descendents, for it being obvious that evidence of their ancestors rights to their lost property has long been obliterated, to share in an equal redistribution of resources in the appropriate forms, thus allowing them to prosper for themselves with correct informative education relevant to their communities' prosperity, instead of forever enslaving themselves to corporate greed. I believe in a truly holistic approach to their economies, education, health and nutrition, business of all nature, creative and recreative persuits, and any other concerns I have neglected to mention. But this is already in practice, some of you may be screaming at me. So why are there so many still in the grip of poverty in all its manifestations? If this were possible with the cooperation of the orthodox churches, their popularity could be reclaimed a little.
Flexability about who our Creator is could wax their popularity.
All the faiths of the world confess their belief in an Infinite Creator. Unfortunately their doctrines and dogmas bely such confession. Do they not realize that by constricting our Creator to their limiting dogmas, they hinder our own evolution? To say that God never changes is tantamount to saying we cannot change. Why? Well, consider that if there was nothing but God before Creation, all that issues from God must be of It's esssence, so must be God. Now many will argue that God cannot be flesh only spirit. I answer by asking, from where then comes the flesh and other material things if there were initially nothing but a God consisting purely of spirit?
And what is spirit other than energy we cannot see with the naked eye as opposed to energy we can see? We can feel the effects of spirit, yet many disbelieve in ghosts.cold spots, poltergiests; thoughts that move objects, prayers that are answered by healing people as well as other healing techniques. Who believes that Jesus was probably practicing Reiki and other similar practices? Applying the human mind to our other senses, beyond the five normal by exercising our imagination can produce amazing healing results, so long as the patient wishes to be well. All of us have been born with this capacity, only religons and analytical western based science has dismissed this,deriding with ridiculing us, and so many of us loose it by the age of five or seven.
Those who refuse to relinquish and fear not the ridicule and vilification do see energy in and around the body and so can see into the body of a patient by creating a visual hologram in the mind. This done they can manipulate the diseased energy by directing it out or dissolving it whilst still in the body, using various images created in the imagination.And did Jesus not also claim that what he could do, we could do also,and much more? This is in the bible, so why have the orthodox churches ignored it for so long?
Islam believes God is seperate from it's creation. I disagree for the same reason. Now since we generally believe in evolution, despite some faiths hold on Creationism, if we can why cannot our Creator?
Of course all this is of the highest blasphemy, but whose blasphemy? Our Creator? I don't believe so. If Jesus Christ came to earth to preach punitive control, why did he save the adulteress from stoning? Why did he absolve others of their sins with only the reccomendation that they atone in a servicable manner? Atonement means at-one-ment with the law of the Universe. So was Christ power greedy? So why then the Church of the Romans and not as Christ advocated to his disciples? Because his male disciples were power greedy. They chose to depart from the law of the Universe, the Law of Creation and it's living force, vilifying both Marys, thus undermining their true contribution to Christ's Church. Needing to cover for their inequities, these disciples corrupted the truth and the Roman and Anglican churches followed suit. But what if the disciples were really none of this, but the corruption of the churches to fulfill their own power greedy agendas? Remember, the bible was collated and compiled over centuries, before and after Jesus and his disciples. But I believe you know all this hence the present empasse we experience at present.
Now back to my main point. I am not here advocating the dissolution of churches and faiths but the expansion of their beliefs about the Infinite nature of Our Creator. That all possibilities are valid until unequivably proven not to be. Not by reductionist scientific paradigms but by personal experience. But I feel I have opened myself up to ridicule here for you may be shouting "how can we trust the testimonies of schizophrenics or those on drugs etc.?" I answer that one by asking how can you refute the validity of what you are not experiencing yourselves? Further, do you not smoke tobacco or drink alcohol, take asprin, codiene, Nurufen etc.etc. There is a thin line between all these "drugs" legality or illegality and it is the law. Since this is not the appropriate article to discuss drugs I shall create one later. I have discovered, however, that many children today that we label autistic, aspergic, ADHD, ADD etc, are not abnormal but the emergance of our evolution. Jesus stated that the meek shall inherit the earth. From what I have learned from autistics, they appear to me to be those meek as 1 in 15O being born in U.S.A today [according to2007 staistics] have some form of autism. If we estimate this ratio as global we have approxiamately 40-50 million autistic people out of approxiamately 7 billion .Statistics released from a telephone survey taken in 2007 by the National Survey of Children's Health, supported by U.S Department of Health and Human Services, yet published 2009, estimates that 1 in 63 babies have the prbability of being born with some form of autism A July 2008 report from the Vaccine Autoimmune Project suggests 1in 67..Other surveys suggest between 1 in 100 and 1 in 110 globally.for each nation When we all experience the same phenomena, then we can safely say it is irrifutable. As noted in my intro 'What does The Voltarian shine it's light on', I mentioned that we are influenced by many other forces in the Universe than we have been told to believe. Likewise we influence others because we are all linked, weblike to the Universal Source, our Creator. Since Creation fluxuates at diverse frequencies it takes on diverse forms and mind enabling an infinite dimensional quality to itself. Yet, those Beings far advanced than us now were once as us, in the Cosmological frame of evolution, just as there are those evolving to our state. So for me, the Idea of limiting our Creator with such dogmas of fear and control is plainly ridiculous. If, however, you wish to remain limited, at least allow us who do wish to evolve, to expand our conciousnesses however we feel appropriate to our spiritual paths without censure.
Could the Atlanteans of Yucatan be the ancestors of the Toltecs?

Giants are recorded by Spanish conquistadors and more recently witnessed in Tibet lte 19th/early20th cen. app.8-12ft tall and blonde haired on both continents. This bares ouy David Eicke's research
Technocracy the ruin of Atlantis as it could be for us? Could Atlanteans be from other star systems as suspected? My research of diverse authors, independant of each other on Atlantis , propose very similar scenarios that convince me of the reasonable probability, unwise to dismiss out of hand. Could those surviving the cataclysm that ruined Atlantis, have taught the neolithic Europeans of c.5-9000 years ago the technology to shift such heavy stones with electro-magnetic equipment or levitation techniques lost to us due to the Roman and christian persecution of the druids? If so, were neolithic peoples of Orkney's , Shetlands and Outer Hebredies and other Gallic European societies more sophisticated than the stone and animal remains attest to, or were the surviving Atlanteans choosey about who they imparted their knowledge to ?
Lemuria, the spiritual antithesis to technocratic Atlantis. The spring from which Shambala was created , Sanskrit evolved and Gnosticism?Lemurians usually dresssed in monklike robes, were interested in astronomy and horticulture, wellbeing of society as a whole of more interest than rank prestige and materialism of technology.
Could the Native American ideal of medicine wheel come from Lemuria, especially since they were interested in holistic herbal and elemental medicine ? Advancedtechnology did exist on Lemuria but it was not revered above spiritual values. Lemuria existed for c.10-12000 years ending approx. time of Atlantis c.9-11000 B.C.
If the polar tilt does occur every c.12-13000 years [half the solar system's orbit around the Milky way] will Atlantians and Lemurians re-appear c. 2020-2030? Are the children of the 21st century the new Atlanteans and Lemurians that only need guiding in the appropriate direction? I like to believe so.
Crystal Skulls, according to Sylvia Browne's spirit guide Francine, came from an explicit mold made from a substance close to Earth's tintanium. The quartz heated in some way, poured into the mold then gently cooled. 15 molded skulls were distributed widely across the Andes, then further across Latin America through migration and war booty. The skulls are of diverse crystal which will move kinetic energy because of the skulls' energetic conductivity. Francine states that much ancient information was stored in these skulls to be tapped by those with sufficient knowledge to do so, such as scrying, as the crystal holds cell memory.
The carving and polishing was performed using a white powdery sand. The message revealed to Francine 's ancestors was that life is fleeting and to honour dead ancestors who shall be met again in the afterlife /otherside. The original skulls do harbour healing energy patterns as many who believe have felt their benefitcial effects
Stone discs found in China have ancient knowledge of extraterrestial civilization stored within along with 22 more crystal skulls found in caves . 716 discs have been found upto 2005, but due to secrecy of Chinese government , not much nore is known of them.
Ica stones found in caves in the Pampa Colorada of Peru depict images of Earth some 23million years ago, records left by an extraterrestial , possibly from the Pliedies, according to Francine , knowledge within the stones themselves will be able to be able to be tapped c. 2020+ functioning as computor data bases, unlocking the mysteries of the extraordinary carvings upon them.
Peri Ries map of Antartica, a segment of an atlas using spheroid trigonometry c.12000 years ago? Francine and Sylvia Browne believe it to be executed by extraterrestials from Andromeda galaxy.Francine also corroberates with Grahame Hancock's estimated age of the pyramids at c.12-15000years old, that the stones were lifted by anti-gravity rods [levitated] and that each stone harbours specific ancient knowledge impregnated by beings far more advanced than humans of c.15000 years ago, but like the ica stones , their secrets will be revealed in the near future Sylvia found upon the walls of the inner chambers depictions of man's journey through life , as much symbolism in the pyramids' structure that revealed similar revelations of man's 'lot' and place in the divine Cosmos.Not only Sylvia but others who enter the pyramids experience life changing energetic experiences, exiting the pyramids reveal a reverberation of positive psychic energy , thoughts, songs, rituals and prayers.
Some of this I experience walking through forests, uo mountains and other natural places. Others experience healings of long term illnesses.

The Ark of the Covenant . Is it beneath the Sphinx or beneath Roslyn chapel? Are we searching for an artifact or scrolls of parchment?
Francine believes, and corroborates with Hancock, that the world's pyramids do form a triangle. That they were communication stations topped by recieving crystals like our radio masts today. Francine believes this knowledge of how to build pyramids that has confounded acadamies for at least 200 years, is certainly from the Andromeda galaxy. Also, the vehicles depicted in the bible and Sanskrit scriptures defy the acadamicians who deny any intelligence in technology before the Egyptians, Babylonians or Sumerians. That souls who choose to come to Earth in a reincarnation have chosen the fast learning lane of cosmic evolution of the spirit. They are the bravest of the brave on this insane asylum of the Universe. so what kind of a pilgrim does that make me?
Francine says that Black Holes are cosmic vacuum cleaners as well as portals for re-incarnated life . That they connect parrallel universes of which there are 44 .
We never leave our universe /cosmos. After crossing over we can visit other universes many of which differ in configuration. [This helps my theory of Descartes' meditations on the universe]
Both Sylvia and Francine deny the Big Bang theory as they believe as they believe Creation always existed along with its Creator. my theory being that of the Creator becoming bored of one configuration only to reconfigure it in the manner theorized by David Bohm of an expanded ripple forming infinite implicate/explicate order, having collapsed the former configuration
Surely an expanding universe needs 'somewhere ' to expand into and contract from. What happens to all the space that was once expanded into when the Universe ,according to Big Bang theory, contracts?Should I be thinking otherwise than in space as we know it?
Although Sylvia and Francine believe in underground cities such as Shangri-la and Shambala, they don't hold with a hollow centred Earth theory,as none of her past life regression cliemts have revealed lives in Earth centred cities. But then this shouldn't rule the possibility definitely void.
Sylvia and Francine both disagree with Knight and Lomas that Jesus was a revolutionary ready to bear arms [swords etc] and that he died in Jeruselum but not crucified, or was that James. Anyway, James or Jesus, he lived to approx. 80 in France with Mary Magdalene. That he did travel to Kasmir, to learn healing techniques and more about beliefs. Could Knight and Lomas be framing Jesus into their favoured picture falling into their masonic researches? Possibly so, but then I could be falling into the same trap by believing Sylvia and Francine.
So, the Elohim are creators on behalf of The Infinite Creator of life on the physical spectrum?Also, Nazareth, did not exist whilst, Jesus the Christ, whilst on Earth This anomoly has raised the head as to whether the Clare Prophets are for real or faking these messages purporting to be coming from Jesus, the Christ Another anomoly concerns the character of moses From what I have gathered from the old Testament, Our Creator in the form of Jehovah is a spiteful, bloodthirsty,greedy entitybelies all that Christ and his ascended brotherhood claim Our Creator to be, and that Moses was prepared to commit genocide on a scale comparable to the Nazis, if not worse at the mere word of Jehovah.
Now why should Our Infinite Creator neeed to demand tribute and animal sacrifice since It has supposed to have Created everything from Itself , including mankind, via these Elohim? Now, I suspect all this to be a lie written by politically coerced scibes if not The Church for reasons of power monopoly This I have written of on my Paine page
If Alexander Huddle of Orkney's account of souls wallowing in a pit of slurry of their sins upon Earth for an undetermined period are so, does this mean that church persecutors as well as monarchs are subjugated tom the same torture on the other side Hiddle certanly had it in for drug barons and financial swindlers , but did he reckon on banks and politicians being the biggest swindlers of the lot ? I have difficulty with this denial of sin proposed Take StGermain in his embodiment as Christopher Colombus. He killed hundereds of thousands and enslaved thousands more indigenous inhabitants of tge Americas, yet he is forgiven his crimes against humanityand awarded a new cloak as Sir Francis Bacon who advocates acts against naturefor the glory of man's arrogance and pride over all the other manifestations of the Infinite Creator's Creation. How do the unfortunates who were slain benefit in the loss of their lives to serve St Germain's agenda? His saving grace in my mind, being his endevour to unite 18th century Europe intom a peace loving state as the EU should be at present, and thus transfer to the New World Even though he was ignored by the sovereign powers of Europe as well as the Federalost powers of the U.S.A, also airbrushed from orthodox history books, he deserves his position of service to mankind in the spirit world. Yet Columbus did alienate souls and prevent the tender sprouts of truth
So, Cuthbert did travel far into Scotland ,even though the Orkney's were not mentioned in the source I read
Would I be correct in believing that the anti-christ sent out the serpent in the form of Orthodox religon with it's condemnation of other religons? And what of the highest representatives of companies, organizationsand governments that are puffed up with their own sense of self-importance and greed for profits at the expense of their clients, their citizens the nations at large. Have they not the right to be indignant at these corruptors?Should we riot cause damage when confronted with their lies and corruption? I believe not, Peaceful demonstration, indeed, but violence only shows us to be no better than they We should unite with our diverse skills and experienced knowledge/wisdom to combat corruption and suppression of rights by creating our own financial and governng systems, free of individual greed for pestigious and, may bI say, dubious power and material gain. As mentioned elsewhere, on this blogsite, true power enlightens, encourages,, respects The true master creates many masters and need not go in search of of pupils as they will seek them out.
Autistics Do Not Wish To Be "Fixed"
For many of us on the "normal" frequency or neuro-typical brainwave pattern of life, who experience people on the Autistic spectrum of brainwave frequencies, that experience can be frustrating, for us as well as the autistic person[s]. This I believe, is due to our percieved medical paradigm that has not experiencced such a phenomenum before the latter half of 20th century.and so finds it difficult to cope with such a diversity of brainwave frequency patterns, most involving behaviours in children,never before realized yet alone diagnosed. So now we have a plethoria of diagnostic terminology most of us are naturally baffled by, the medical and educational instituions included.
Now, I'm no expert, but from what I've read from these people, I can empathise with them from my own personal experience of my childhood, growing up with a thyroid deficancy now called Myxoedema, but fifty years ago was termed Cretinism.What an embarrassing label to be pinned on anyone who has the conciousness to know that they are not stupid or backward just misunderstood by many and bored to tears with the so-called educational system, thus relying on my own imagination and day dreaming for stimulation.
In hindsight, I wish I had learned of G.B. Shaw, George Orwell and other like minds whilst school age and so truanted from school to persue my own studies instead of boring myself silly in classsroom. They shunned the restrictions of their middle and upper class moralities and went their own way,eventually becoming world reknown figures.
Now I don't expect to be so, and many autistics have their own agendas for bettering the world that do not necessitate such celibrity, but acknowledgement of their talents and publicty of their truths as opposed to media and establishment's half baked assumptions of who they should be. I hope to squash such assumptions here, armed only with my aforesaid empathy with some of these children's thoughts, ideas and feelings, although not sharing their physical conditions.
An extract of a conversation between a seven year old boy, Tanner and his mother. Tanner is drawing in the living room. His parents and sister were busy with their activities;
Tanner: We are who we are and that is the way life should be.Do you know what this means, mom?
Mom: I'm not sure...why don't you explain it to me?
T; It means you should be who you are, not try to be someone else just to get friends. You'll get friends for being who you are, sooner or later. The wise frog will be still while waiting for the fly.The wise frog does not seek out the fly. It means with patience comes rewards.
Extracted from The Autism Prophecies by William Stillman, an aspergic author of many books on autism.
Most of us at some time in our lives, or still at present, are influenced by peer pressure to perform beyond or against our present capabilities, to keep our jobs, or to masqurade as what we hope our so-called friends will admire in us but is not truly there.So when we are caught out we lose the respect of these so-called friends anyway, as we straggle to justify ourselves to match their demands. I, as a teenager, craved such acceptance by my peers, who wouldn't? I found I compromised myself by agrreing to opinions they shared but I disagreed with, either nodding affirmatively when asked for my opinion, or keeping stumm for fear of ridicule.It was not until I had been out in the world of adults for some time and traveled to India on my own [many relatives and people of my parents generation thought this,travelling alone, a feat in itself,] that I gained the self confidence to openly disagree with my peers. Those peers of my teenage and early adult hood have now fallen away, or should I say I have drifted away from them, as I have found them too depressing and insular. They have never been interested in travel beyond the shores of Britain, and so I find I have little in common with them. now.Even so, I have to attribute my interest in surrealist art and thought as well as my diverse musical taste to their influence
So where has Tanner, at only seven, recieved such wisdom?
Is he somehow connected to a higher wisdom? I reply, yes.His neurological pathways appear to allow him to connect to that universal wisdom that Christ taught we could access if we put our minds to it. Like Einstein professed, it was not until he relaxed his academic mind from the problem he was trying to solve and took himself off into the woods, or wherever, that his neurological pathways linked with the Universal wisdom giving him the answers he was searching. The frog does not seek out the fly.
Many of these people are non verbal, some involuntary due to their individual condition, others voluntarily so. This does not invalid them, however, as they can communicate telepathically or use facilliating communicators. I haven't seen one of these, but I imagine, from a desciption in one of William Stillman's books, they look and operate something akin to the machine Prof. Stephen Hawking uses.This allows them to express themselves either verbally or literally. According to some, who have their own mind language, they have to translate into a spoken language.This is difficult for them because human spoken language has such a limited vocabulary,and so translation is time consuming for them.The frustration I mentioned at the head of this piece, can arise in the form of impatience concerning the neuro-typical person awaiting a vocab-response, and the autistic attempting to dumb down whatever he wishes to convey to the neuro-typical on his communicator.The frustration can, however be abated by the patience of both or all parties in the conversation.The neuro-typical must slow down, the autistic be more resourseful
The neuro-typical, most of us at present, could start learning image telepathy so as to able to communicate. Since some of us think in words, others in images,we may have to attempt both to facilliate healthy communication in the future. Back in the 70's, there was a children's T.V. serial called The Tomorrow People.
A small group of teens who "jaunted" themselves from the future to commuicate with the people of 20th century. They spoke to themselves telepathically. I believe now, that they were from early-mid 21st century.
Their method of "jaunting", pressing some kind of device on their belts, may not be how 21st century mankind will transport themselves , whether through time or to distant places, but the possibility of doing so is possible if we open our minds to it. Just as holy men in the past, could bi-locate themselves as well as other cultures still in touch with their ancestral knowledge.in the present.
There are others who although non-verbal in their "mother tongues" nevertheless communicate in other, either modern or ancient Earth languages, or other worldly. These can be translated by those versed in them to reveal their authenticity. ie not gibberish
Another trait many have witnessed with autistics is an extraordinary attention to detail in an area/topic that fascinates them. Here I empathize also.My academic passion is history, but I had no interest in school's idea of history.so I decided not to follow up to examination with it. At the age of seven or eight, I avidly watched the war films and documentaries on sunday afternoons and gained, contrary to accepted wisdom of the 1960/70's an admiration of the Germans. Now, the adults would discourage this fascination by telling me that Nazis were evil, but no one would tell me why Hitler and his Nazis were so, or more to my curiosty, how they came to be so. I eventually took it upon myself to persue my own research, leaving no aspect of their ideology untouched. Today even, my curiosity is unsatiated as ever new information is being unravelled about that time. I follow other aspects and peoples of history that interest me with an equal zeal. I'm not a Nazi, I'm just fascinated by the phenomenum I still hold a healthy admiration for the Germans,which does not condone their attitudes and behaviour under Hitler,but we must acknowledge their intellect and contribution to society. After all, many of the nuclear phisicists that have pioneered our technolgy have been and are German[including Einstien and Heisenburg,], and they are my racial cousins. And hasn't the British Empire been found guilty of colonial atrocities that the schools are keen to "whitewash"?
I have also other interests I find I'm equally zealous about but find myself bogged down in resarch with little space for putting into writting.in my desired format, dramatic dialouge.
I have also discovered that those on the autistic spectrum have a rapour with animals many neuro-typical dismiss in themselves. Easily enough surmised when we remember the ridicule heaped on those of us who claim to speak with animals. I don't mean the normal human conversations we have with our pets but in depth philosophical telepathic conversations.On the higher soul plane of existance, anmals are just as intelligent or more so, than human souls, depending on the human and animal soul's evolutionary development.
Some of you may be ridiculing me as you read this, but don't dismiss me until you have researched yourselves.
The information animals can impart to us when we show them due respect, is astounding. most of it deals with how we can stop polluting the planet and start reversing the unhealthy lifedstyles we are acccustomed to that ae killing us with symptoms that are manifesting themselves.as diseases. Again, the ancient cultures understood this and acted accordingly. The Native Americans were coerced into forgetting this when the white europeans introduced them to "fire water" and oppressed them with "whiteman paper" i.e . european education. Only since WWII have they remembered their ancestors council ways and medicine wheel.thus taking their destiny into their own hands.
Has autism popped up in people through history?
Two personalities with severe ticks come to mind, Dr. Samuel Johnson and Claudius, the Roman Emperor, who came to the throne by default due to the sick humour of the Pretorian Guard who had just murderd his nephew,Caligula. All but a few close friends in Rome, took Claudius to be an idiot because of his stammers, ticks and club foot, but he was an able historian also dedicated to detail. The parting advice his friend King Herod imparted to him was to keep up the illusion of being an idiot to stay alive. If it wasn't for the 20th century historian Robert Graves uncovering such details in his books, we wouldn't of heard anything about him. Both with lucid minds, yet impaired by annoying bodily twiches ,vocal sounds and stammers.I wonder how much or which aspects of Johnson's behaviour were the tics and which were stimming .For those who don't know, "stimming" is the odd behaviour autistics portray to lessen the effects of their ticks or distracting neurological behaviour. In Johnson's case this involved twiddling of thumbs, shuflling of feet, rocking to and fro or in circles, whistling or exuding verbal sounds or puffs of breath. Obssessive habits such as retracing his steps if he felt he did not enter a room in the usual manner, i.e. if left foot entered before right, he would retrace to make sure right foot entered first. This would probably never have come to light if his friend James Boswell had not been such a stickler for such characteristic detail in his Life of Johnson or his own Journals. How many more can you think of?
.So why do they not wish to be fixed if they suffer all these ticks?
They would rather not have to deal with them, but they also understand that their condition is a puposeful challenge on a soul level. They also want to be correctly interpreted as an intelligent being. Not being so usually results in agressive behaviour as they tackle their frustrations. Let's put it this way. You have been found by strangers, bound and gagged. with invisible tape. Naturally they can't understand your inability to speak or your seemingly eratic bodily movements, so they use their worldly paradigm to presume you are somehow inferior to them and so they treat you like wise. How frustrated should you feel?
I found myself in a similar predicament when I was a small boy with a slight stammer and inarticulate speach,
not having sufficient command of english vocabulary.The bigger boys would taunt me with names inferring backwardness and stupidity. I knew it to be my thyroid condition, the thyroid gland being instumental to communication. Of course I didn't know that much, only that the conditon impaired my speach. So how could I explain this to a bunch of ignorant kids, as wellas some teachers, who were only looking for an excuse to ridicule me? This is how I empatize with autistics.
William Stillman also suggests stimming to be equal to mantras, Gregorian chants, reciting the rosary, whirling of sufi Dervishers and other repetitive rituals to stimulate states of alternate conciousnesses This being verified by famous neurologist Oliver Sacks. One of his patients , showing symptoms of dyskinesia, showed similar stimming behaviour, but who found it beneficial and rewarding, not debilitating. So, it appears obvious, that directed appropriately, according to the individual's inclinations, the tics are not so debilitating after all. It needs only for parents, medical staff and the general neuro-typical public to understand this and accept rather than ridicule or misguidedly want to "fix"
Autistics can also be emotionaly emphatic with animals. As mentioned earlier, animals are far more intelligent than we have been led to believe,.so autistics pick up on these animal communications and so may become distraught, unhappy, sleepless or delirioius happy or hyperactive, for no apparant reason to us. Ask the child why they feel this way and accept the answer given.It may not be a family pet in anguish or deliriously happy, but a neighbour's, friends' relative's,or any animal the child has contacted empathically. This is true for humans also whether near or far, ill or dying.This mainly occurs with children with healing gifts. They often do not understand how to correctly control or apply this energy and so find themselves drained of energy. A specialist healer can help them do so.
These children can "hit out" unexpectantly and seemingly erratically at a human with a condition needing healing. They may have no idea of the persons' condition but intuitively know where to strike and how much presure to bear. When quizzed by adults they will likely say an angel, spirit, Jesus or God told me to do it. Accept this and seek medical correlation and confirmation from your G.P Of curse it could relate to something else, so ask the child in a non threatening manner before chastising them
So why do I keep banging on about these children?
Because it appears to me that they are saying something fundamental to us as a species on the brink of auto-anhilation.S-L-O-W D-O-W-N!

DANCING YOUR DREAM
by The Voltarian. Jan.2009
Dreaming, I don't want to be here.
Dreaming, I'd rather be elsewhere.
Spending more of Life's span creating,
instead of contributing to government's
insatiable war machining,
keeping the elite few in their accustomed spirit,
gnawing away at the remainder
of the World's Divine spirit.
It has frequently been voiced,
from Dr. Johnson's lips, they say,
that those who tire of London,
tire of Life, per se.
Hear ye this from mine.
It's neither Life or London I tire of
but Londoners and their projected strife.
I am aware they dream of being elsewhere also,
or even someone else, or living their lifestyle.
Blank visages shuffling their spirit weary way
along London's thoroughfares, crookedly paved,
dog-ended and matchstick filled, cracked,
beverage stained, puke puddled, piss streamed, shit caked streets.
Grimacing against the the weather,
their fate unchangable' til the day they retire,
or die, if not redundant before their time expended.
For this is how they've been told it must be so
by religon, printed media, T.V. and radio.
They tell you the weather's miserable, ghastly,terrible, gloomy.
Or else it's blistering, parched and dry, so humid there's
drought on the way with the inevitable hose pipe ban
that never appears to be revoked.
All this to keep you aggravated, listless or broody.
The frame of mind they want you to move in.
Then they scare you with time,
there's always never enough.
Understand the quantum Universe,
it's all relative stuff.
Someone's minute is an hour,
another's eternity a second.
Learn how to use it well,
and it's yours to beckon.
Yes, I used to believe in the capitalist dream.
The house, the car, family, you know what I mean.
I was naive, I listened to those who told me to "grow- up".
Six years of it left me morose, unfulfilled, fed-up!
I dreamed of being an academic, an historian.
I became Hesse's Steppenwolf, serious, brooding.
Enough is enough I screamed,
it's time now to let heart play.
So I ditched my unfulfilling job
boarded a plane and jetted away.
Remembered there are millions far worse off than I
Took stock of what I had, now I plan a different destiny.
Dreaming the ancient wisdom, as relevant today
as dreamed by the first humans, back far away.
Only needing fresh application,
from modern man's fertile imagination.
It is there, amongst the infinity within each human cell.
The Divine code we are told we never use, 95% of it,
hidden well.
Awaiting only for us to open out further,
connecting heart to brain once more,
lain dormant for centuries, maybe more.
Not that sweeping is a bad thing, far from it.
Only the system convinces many that it should be so.
Only a yardstick, though a phoney one I say,
for others in society to measure their material successes,
this or that way.
But whom from the mass of white collared visages
can truly claim happiness has come their way?
So, they earn far more than me.
Their grimaces bely their boasted successes,
that my eyes can see.
Stevie Smith was drowning, not waving happily.
The same could be said of these city folks,
as I bob along the surface waving, craving,
a spark of a smile upon their faces.
Not many appear to notice, wrapped up as they are
in their dreaming.
Forlorn hearts weeping.
Only those who dream as I do say good morning,
exchange a few words or a "how you doing".
There are those who, lofty seated upon their wealthy thrones
that believe all those below them should be their cringing drones.
Those with the "right" school ties, the "right" social "breeding",
firm in their belief they are loftier in their judgements and social ideals.
Unfortinately it filters down.
Those in white collars despise those in blue,
no matter their backgound or skin's hue.
It seems evident to me, that man can bear the loss of his possessions
far more than the loss of his power over other men.
From the same eternal source we came to be.
The nearest material form of this source
that plays its part in emanating us all
was previously emanated from the cosmic dust
of other firey balls.
So remember when sniffing at folks such as I.
Your crap we sweep up is also you and I,
only formed to differing ratios, yet bonded by the same glue.
Electro-magnetic attraction keeps all bodies in place.
Atoms to galaxies we are all hewn,
from quantum particles dancing to diverse tunes.
For diversity is the Law of One, expressed infinitely.
Adhere to this and we can obtain eternal harmony.
The Tao calls it the Wu Wei.
This is the grand universe at play.
So now I dance the Wu Wei,
dreaming this is the way
to dance your dream body
creating wherever you be.
The world is not stable,
changes must occur.
The inevitable stance,
I Ching in Being
the Infinite Creator.
So make your changes folks
as not all is set in stone.
The past, present, future you create
from the mistakes learned and rectified.
Dream another dance, let that be fortified.
It's your free will, use it so,
stop allowing others to convince you no.
Things are sent to try us,
this I believe is true.
Stop believing life a burden,
use it to challenge and maximize your soul.
What of the city's buildings, tarmacadam roads and streets?
What of lamp posts, benches, neon signs, trees, bushes, weeds,
feasting pigeons at your feet, in parks, gardens, sequestered squares;
perched atop parking meters?
The traffic upon wheels, rails or waterbourne.
Father Thames quietly rolling under spanning bridges.
Subways, flyovers and viaducts, rail terminals, bus and underground stations.
Airports, seaports, M25 and its service stations.
Do they dream of being elsewhere?
Would they prefer ferrying people in sunnier climes?
Maybe, unlike us dissatisfied folks , they are fulfilled,
serving us by moving with the Divine agenda,
instead of, as is our want.
Yes, you probably snigger. Things harbouring conciousness!
Surely he's touched.
But allow me to remind you of what's normally kept under wraps.
There are many more things at large than meet mere mortal imaginings.
Yet not entirely impossible for anyone to grasp,
provided we keep an opened mind and heart to the last.
You've heard it all before, you cry.
Then why aren't you acting upon it?, is my reply.
You say you all know of global corruption et al.
Then why aren't you acting, considering you say,
you're sick of the whole damn farce?
What of me? What am I acting upon?
Seeking like minded folk who share my values and ideals.
To begin anew, elsewhere, to nurture future leaders from our loins.
To evolve, as we should be doing.
Instead we stagnate in hatred, fuming.
We evolve our technology but not ourselves, it seems.
The age of reason had conned us well.
We were told by the likes of Sir Francis Bacon
to make only our brain muscles swell,
whilst strangling nature, binding it to our control.
Heart sense pumping still, yet largely ignored
except for those bards whose heart conciousness' soared
above the stinking pall of dark satanic mill clouds.
Yet only the wealthier, vibrant hearts and creative imaginations,
had time on their hands to fulfill hidden dreams,
sadly all but forgotten nowadays.
Their craft's value hammered under auctioneers' gavels.
Do these bidders with seemingly bottomless coffers
truly know the price of everything, yet the value of nothing (at all)?
These arts and crafts were meant to be utilised well.
Many instead lay in vaults of banks or private mansions deep,
only a selected few are invited to peep.
Market forces have all but driven beauty out of modern usage.
Exchanged for bare functionality, excused as minimalization.
What a short change!
Twentieth century's nuclear physicists
procured us an alternative source to apply.
Pearls before swine they unwittingly threw
to political leaders that offer us nothing new
but more blood sweat and tears.
Nature programs on T.V. tell us that nature strangles us now,
whilst catastrophy mongers believe it's the Universe, but wait, how!
Are we not the destroyers of Earth and its neighbourhood?
I believe nature has tired of awaiting our evolution
and so has programed it's own preservation.
BOUNDARIES AND SPACES
By The Voltarian. Feb.2010
We busy ourselves with walls and fences.
Enforce their validity with rubber stamped papers.
This is ours, that is yours,
We belong here, you, there.
In times past we even painted our drainpipes.
That's your half, this mine.
Yet our filthy waters mingle still,
in common as they flow.
The rigidity with which we erect our cities,
mark, delineate, seperate us from our Creator Source
and our potential creative force.
Yet nature encroaches despite ourselves.
She holds no bounds, no matter how we manipulate her.
Besmudging the land with rows of hedge and stone,
prim leafed avenues, ditches, dykes and moats,
She still encroaches with time.
Bramble and ivy bore through mortar on their ascent.
Tree roots crack open tarmac, upheave stone.
Weeds fill the cracks in and between the paving,
of the neglected canal towpath, aerodrome runway,
and railway track sleepers.
She reveals her own spaces.
Patterns the space we call sky
with her naked twigged boughs, coppiced Knobs,
and vaporous plumes that reflect in our window panes.
Tapping at the glass.
"Hello! We're still here",
as they remind us we are ALL ONE.
Our boundaries but delusions
for spaces are infinite
and so our minds when we allow them to be so.
VOID MANTRA
By The Voltarian Aug.2009
Void- where is it?
It is the mind and the no-mind.
The undefinable- the indefinable.
All existance is the mind
which is and is not.
The singularity and the ripple
from which all emanate
Implicate and explicate.
The Infinite is mind in motion,
in process of being- and not being
turned on/off/on/off/on...
Religon and science wish to limit the mind
to concrete dogmas and mathematical paradigms.
The dogmas contradict-refusing to be explained.
The paradigms paradox- do they need to be explained?
Both finite and stagnate our understanding
of the Infinite that is us,
for corporeal and etheric are mind.
We as humans can only evolve
by dropping all finite conceptions
of who we are.
The Creator and the Creation,
Infinite in form.
The Wu Wei being the Universal norm.
Void-where is it?
It is the mind and the no-mind...
I LOVE YOU STEVIE SMITH
By The Voltarian. Aug2009
I love you Stevie Smith
I think you groovy fab
Even tho' you write of the dead
And those who are awfully sad.
Your approach to death by some
May appear callous and blythe
For you make it clear you have no fear
Of Death's keen bladed scythe.
Your bestest friends are Freddy and Mum
To them unconditional your love.
The Universal beams in through your crown
Reaching Soul's depth which has no bounds
emanating out with a positive hum.
Pub-lub-light chums gather round
To bask in your lime-light shining.
Supping whiskeys and sodas, tonics with gin
Fawning over your latest sonnets you bring
to recite in the Pub Club Corner.
Upon rainsoaked nights you slink out
Along pavements glistening you saunter
In search of lakes abominable
You reflect in puddles fast arising.
Sky speaks in spits and drops
Then howls in lashing hydro-spikes.
From houses golden squares and rectangles glow
Behind dropleted panes warm hearth homes.
But you prefer rain lashed streets, deserted.
To the womb of the lake
Through darkened wood you make
Where dominion of time dissipates.
There, another heaven and earth await
Confrontation with your ancient soul
Of previous lives spent on this Earth's
mortal coil.
You crave the waves to cover you over
To sleep, you desire for all to be over.
But the abominable lake crests no waves
Only ripples gently lapping at your nipples.
Cool and tingling you awake from mournful slumber
Reminding yourself of the clothes you flung asunder
And why should man fear more death than fear to live?
And were you always too far out in Life
Not waving , but drowning?
You'd sooner wend your way back naked
To the rain lashed suburban streets deserted.
But society propriety forbids it so
In this night, is anybody really to know?
Gnadiges Fraulein
Where is home for you?
All is hurt, tears and complain.
Even the deserted garden
Is too formal and shadow cast.
Not one blossom thrives there
But a thorn of your despair.
You crave the grave
To be elsewhere
But could your soul be quieted?
Would the Infinite satisfy?
Could you ever be satiated?
BLESSED ARE THE CHALK MARKERS
By The Voltarian Sep 2010
Blessed are the chalk markers.
The Derry piece-peace lovers.
Whom politics, religon and
money have pulled asunder,
they have drawn together,
in joyful spontaniety.
Wet weather dampens them never.
Nor the arm of the law.
Both inspire them to continue,
chalking all the more.
They fish in muddy waters,
creation as their bait.
Their haul usually to their surprise
is creative public response.
Their response to corporate adulteration
results in their own brand of muralation.
No to war, no to conformity, no to hypocrisy
and blind consumerism.
Yes to dada, yes to surealisimo.
Yes to song and poetic actioning
Yes to zen, completes the eternal circle,
the mobius strip and infinate motion.
Still-moving-posting-passing by.
Singing lies-love-death.....and torture
To whom should we unify?
To the roots amongst us all, the cry.
Should the roots of diverse trees
matter to thee?
No, all trees grow from familiar roots,
only diverse in their personalities,
as should be we.
No need for rush, or heed to hurry.
Why whisk yourselves up into a flurry?
Life's too short, many say, to saunter and tarry.
I reply, time is just as you make it.
You only enslave yourselves when you worry.
So exchange your gold-grubbing-materialistic morals
for those values enhancing the soul,
shake yourselves from your complacent laurels.
You don't need to spend money to give.
A smile is enough of a gig.
Give of yourselves, emanate your God-given light,
to all those in need of a lift.
Smile to the oppressed, depressed and ill.
Humanize exploited consumers all.
Humanize exploited commuters all.
Bring them back to life,
distract them from their strife.
Suggest they take a holiday.
Take off for six months, or more.
Sell up, buy a camper van,
or hook up to your/that battered old caravan.
Loose yourselves to natures flow,
then decide, is it worth a go?
or return to the hapless throng once mo'.
Oh you anti-religous, you heretics! You heathen blasphemers!
There's more Christ-conciousness in you than any clergyman
can bare.
Your actions in concert
are without pretensions to high art
But ART thpu richer than those on high thrones,
who condescend to throw to wretched dogs, marrowless bones?
The kernals you dispense to the crowd,
would make ol' J.C. so proud,
for they consist of pure light,
of which you alchemists have wrought,
with the gold of your intent, your hearts' will.
You turn the streets into true churches of Christ,
touching those the orthodox never will reach.
YES/NO TO ASBO's
By The Voltarian Sep 2010
No to ASBO's, no to spit.
No to spilt ice-cream cones,
McFlurries and fizzy drinks.
No to Wank Donald's, KFC,
fried chicken, doner kebabs,
that encrust upon pavements
and sole treds of shoes.
ASBO these fast junk food stores,
or ASBO the kids.
What! even babes in prams,
also littering the streets,
with their discarded dummies,
cuddly toys, and sometimes sweets?
Government want us to take in more fresh fruit and veg.
Leave off the fatty cholesterol, unhealthy meat.
They continue to thrust it all upon us, even so.
They claim they are serving us, giving us choice,
so ASBO these M.P.'s with their covert policies.
Elect those we can trust, those willing to serve.
ASBO those foisted upon us, we no longer deserve.
Those who ASBO the chalk markers, who dare colour our city.
We cannot abide this, all should be made to cower,
under the oppressive grey dreary gravitus of corporate power,
that turns a blind eye to Banksy, even courts his favour,
to daub and litter our high streets with their inane logos all over.
So, whatever happened to the true logos?
Alas buried under all the dross,
of a society that chooses gold,
as it's sovereign boss, that screams;
Art should not be FREE!
Art should be made to PAY!
So all who offer their art upon the streets,
should be made to 'clean-up' and FLEE!
You're causing CRIMINAL DAMAGE
security and police demean.
But the chalk here today,
shall by tomorrow's rain
be washed away,
yet the corporate graffitti remains,
to be tarnished only by age,
until another corporate take-over
presses for yet another design make-over .
ASBO corporate uniformed work togs
in disgusting colours, with slogans of rot.
We have no choice but to don this revolting garb,
whilst slaving for faceless masters,
who have gobbled up all the small concerns
we were once happy and proud to be a part in.
Now we are only a part of a gross parody.
Lasse-fayre with give and take
has been substituted for take, take, take.
We must once again grovel to remain enslaved,
to Edwardian pegagouges and false democracy,
or be branded criminal, no employment, no domicility.
No to ASBO's slapped upon legal gatherings of three or more.
Should the Sally Army be moved on from their joyous racket?
Should marching bands be banned?
What about rallies, Speaker's Corner, Oxford Street shopping,
any high street shopping?
Oh, well, we'll make an exception for high street shopping,
blind consumerism must continue on.
What about public houses?
You will be arrested for gathering in an enclosed public space,
to drink and be merry. How do you plead?
Oh, but we need to tax your beer and spirits, so we'll excuse
that too.
And bus stops?
You will be arrested for loitering with intent to catch a bus,
whilst gossiping to a friend or neighbour. How do you plead?
Oh, but the transport bosses must make their big fat profits
by fining you for the privilege of delays, cancellations and
general arse-ing about, so we'll excuse that too.
Ah! but we can get you on parks and libraries, swimming pools too.
Loitering and gathering with intent on enjoying and exercising yourselves.
How do you plead?
We could easily close all these down, you know,
build multi-story car parks, or more hypermarkets or hyper by passes.
How about a Blockbuster Video store!
ASBO cheap booze,
or ASBO the need to
get plastered on such
cheap hootch?
Ask the youth what they
really need.
Is it so much to ask,
to bring down the rate of crime
and alcohol abuse?
Desist in abusing youth to fill
fodder chosen roles.
Inspire them to reach
for soul enriching goals.
Invest in creativity,
Create self-worthy citizens
who choose to lighten upthe city
instead of churning in the shit heapy.
After all, why should they be forced
to conform, continually tested,
to match unrealistic statistics,
compiled by those whose heads
are firmly rammed up their bureaucratic
arse-tistics.
All those branded by the state as backward slow learners,
ADD and ADHD hyper-actives.
The Auties and Aspies are here to stay.
No freaks of nature, children of the coming golden age.
They should be running society, the future is surely theirs,
to free minds , unlock hearts, crush the hate and prejudice.
Liberate us from the monumental fuck up
of our inherited shitizized state.
So let's ASBO the stolen future of our nations.
Elect a new generation, with heart and patience,
to cater for all, exclusive of none
but those who wish not to stay, and be ONE.
