And what is the Corporations basic philosophy in fostering this dark and sinister control of our body, mind and soul? Profit and Power! Thus, they sell their goods via the manipulation of our senses by posing an anorexic half naked woman in front of our eyes and beer drinkers sporting bodies that most football players would envy. Dare we seek change?

::::::::

Oh friends, not these tones!
Let us raise our voices in more
Pleasing and joyful sounds!

A barrier to getting ourselves free of top-down rule is our conditioning. Yes, the likes of the Rothchild's, Koch Brothers, and Trumps are barriers to our empowerment in their control of the media, and the politicians that are supposed to be "for the people."

Thus is Joy trampled and brutally murdered. As a result, we live in a regressive state saturated in deep dark depression, misery and despair!

And what is the Corporations basic philosophy in fostering this dark and sinister control of our body, mind and soul? Profit and Power! Thus, they sell their goods via the manipulation of our senses by posing an anorexic half naked woman in front of our eyes and beer drinkers sporting bodies that most football players would envy.

Meanwhile, on the next page of the magazine what you are reading leads you into discovering a McDonald's commercial enticing you to eat food that has been tortured, nuked and abused. Furthermore, upon eating the burger, it will help you develop diseases and a poorly evolved body. Thus it makes money for the medical community, the drug companies and corporate funeral homes. It's a "win-win" situation, for them. It's a loose-loose for us.

Want scientific evidence about how all this affects us? Walk into any McDonalds and look around. Are you amazed at the overweight folks with barren and depressed faces never experiencing Shiller's Goddess: Joy!

It's all about corporate, world domination. Over who are they dominating? It is none other than the minds, bodies and souls of the reader and your loved ones.

Thus we are mesmerized by garbage. We are the walking dead: Vampires sucking the life out of the Maiden, the Earth Herself. We are zombies programed by the "powers that be."

In addition to this manipulation/mind control of corporations over our lives, the techniques that help them maintain power over us is grounded in the ethos of "divide and conquer."

Through this pitting of Fox News and CNN, we are divided and thusly controlled. In our blindness, we are quickly becoming slaves in the States. We are paid less, barely have benefits (e.g., health) and are working more hours for less compensation.

Thus, how do we pay for medical benefits whose costs have sky rocketed? Do we rely on the system to make it easy for those of us who are not wealthy? Its not happening! It's not going to happen!

Indeed, if the powers that be have it their way, there will be no benefits.

So, what if we designed a system, from the bottom up, in which the powers that be have no power over us? What would that look like? Could we have a system of self-governance in which we are able to pay for services? What would that look like to you? Be creative! You and everyone else are the designer.

This is a big deal. It means we Eves (the Labor Class, not just women) need to fire, or divorce our abusive husband (Corporation)! In the meantime, WE need to take the reigns over our lives! We don't need a "Puppet Master" because we are NOT puppets! We should have never been puppets and never shall we allow ourselves to be puppets.

This current economic mess we are experiencing in the USA was fostered by corporate activities such as outsourcing to countries such as China. Yes, their long-term goal was to murder the middle classes here in the states. They also wanted to bust unions. God forbid we have organizations that represented the general Joe and Jane! The primary goal of the corporation (in general) has been to return to a feudal state where landowners (i.e., banks and corporations) own the government and the people it is supposed to serve.

We are thus a fascist state. Hitler may have lost a battle. But he has won the war. So have the Rothchilds and others in that upper 1%!

We have allowed ourselves to be akin to ants under the shoes of a sociopathic giant.

Why do we remain in this fix? Why do we tolerate it? I'm not answering this for you.

We've had several revolutions that have sought to "fix" this problem only to find that we wound up in a merry go round, i.e., a revolution instead of an evolution. Thus, be it the French, the American, the Industrial, or whatever revolution we have partaken in. We remain nothing less than serfs under the feet of the landowners, i.e., banks and corporations.

So what are we to do about it?

We can complain.

Where does that get us?

Revolutions!

How has that worked so far?

We have the power to vote!

And there we find that both parties are under the same corporate boiling pot.

Nothing has changed.

This day and age is NOT reflecting anything new. We are living in a dark age. Yes, I know the astrological notion of the Kali Yuga or Dark Age has supposedly ended. And, perhaps it has and what we are seeing on the part of the "rulers" is a fear based hunkering down on the foundations of the human race, you and me. What is their goal? It's to keep you and me under their thumb.

Indeed, the quantum physics and spiritual writings begun in the beginning of last century may have been the beginning of the end for our Dark Age, out of which we are slowly emerging. Unfortunately, folks don't "get" this movement.

Perhaps we are on the brink of major change as we move away from the Kali Yuga, or Dark Age. This movement is inherent in science, as reflected in the works of David Bohm, F. David Peat, Karl Pribram, Fritzof Capra and others.

F. David Peat speaks to this movement beautifully when he states:

Bohm considers that what we take for reality are "surface phenomena, explicate forms that have temporarily unfolded out of an underlying implicate order". That is, the implicate order is the ground from which reality emerges. Wikipedia

This Unmanifest Implicate Order giving rise to the Manifest Explicit Order is all over the creation stories throughout the world. In many of my past writings, I have written these out. I'm not going to repeat them here.

To begin your quest, read Genesis 1:2 of the Bible.

The beauty of this notion is that in the Unmanifest is an infinite plethora of potentials. Some of these potentials regard our extinction. Others contain our evolution. Still others contain the Earth becoming a barren, lifeless planet while humans are evolved to become food for butterflies.

The question is, which of those infinite options do we wish to foster into manifesting? Yes, our words, thoughts, actions and beliefs are seminal to what manifests!

Do we want peace and harmony? Or, do we foster war and disharmony? Unite and Prosper? Or Divide and Conquer? Which is it?

What can you do about it in your belief systems, your actions, and how you relate to this planet? (Yes, you cannot just wish upon a star).

As Burke states at the end of his documentary: The Day the Universe Changed

If you believe the universe is what you say it is, then by all means say!"

I say first of all look at what you are seeing in the world THEN begin to say what you would like it to be. Otherwise, you're liable to run into the predicament entailed in the following: "Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it." What are we wishing for that has created the mess we have today. Meditate on this! It will be enlightening.

Then act upon your wish. Do not just wish it. Live it. It won't manifest if you just wish upon a star!

The so-called "New World Order" is not under the command of a sociopath like Bush Sr. It is nested within each one of us. Thus Christ says in the "Gospel of Thomas:"

If you bring forth that which is within you, that which is within you will save you

If you do not bring forth that which is within you, that which is within you will kill you.

Simple enough: You get what you ask for

The Man does NOT rule over you. You have allowed him to rule. You and everything else are partners in the evolution and devolution of the planet and the human species.

Not a small part you play in fostering this Blues Song of powerlessness. Nor will you play a small part in fostering an empowered Joy!

Are you open to playing a new tune? Shiller sings to this in his poem titled "Ode To Joy:"

Joy, daughter of Elysium (meaning peace, same as Jerusalem, Place of Peace)
Thy magic reunites those
Whom stern custom has parted;
All men will become brothers
Under thy gentle wing.

Lyrics taken from this page

Or do we not take the Wings of Joy to fly into an embracing of Peace? Shall we remain stuck in this sea of corporate divisiveness? Shall we sing instead:

Misery and depression

Has me down

Thus, I'm in debt up to my a*s

Love these days?

I no longer ask

Joy: an illusionary Goddess of the past

Thus this eternity of doom and gloom

shall forever more last.

Are we truly powerless? Do we want to remain in the corporate divide and conquer mode? Or do we embrace this world to kindle an ethos of unite and prosper?

The ball is in our court. Not theirs. Ours.

When do WE grow up?
