Every day I try to understand, and the deeper I go the more I see. The answer to it must be to shine a light and the darkness must go away...
One theory of evolution says that in most groups of animals there is a force that looks after all those it has influence on. With fish it is the shoal that gives protection. With wolves it is the pack and the pack leader that leads the hunt for food. In gorillas it is the big male that keeps the family together.
Being part of a tribe or herd gives not only protection but social interaction as well keeping the species going, and more.
In all of these families everyone benefits for the good of the whole.
In the same way, humans banded together in small groups and were led by someone strong enough to hold it all together. As the tribes grew bigger the chief or leader who was a part of the whole and not separate from it became more powerful and yet for the most part was able to live in enough of a harmony with the land and each other that they were able to grow and thrive.
And then religion came along and demanded sacrifices to a god that became more invented as time went on; such as with the Aztecs, Egyptians and the Europeans to name a few of the bigger ones.
If religions hadn’t been invented then our search for meaning and conscious awareness of our place in life would have taken a different turn, but as societies grew those in power became separate from the whole and religions grew powerful to become the dominant force to lead the masses towards what they deemed the objectives to be and not the group as a whole.
This mentality caused a divide in the structure of the group that brought into being the sheep syndrome and sheep have to be managed so the twin masters of religion and government divided up the spoils between them. Any individuals that rocked the boat were branded as heretics or enemies of the state and were either burnt at the stake in some way or exiled and always persecuted and criminalized to discourage others who could see the wrongness of the system but were marginalized and even murdered to stop any spread of discontent that might threaten them at the top.
Keeping the population dumb enough with just enough education to perform their tasks was one way of keeping control. The other was fear, such as in the inquisition where anyone that showed an ounce of awareness above their place was tortured and killed most horribly in the name of the god and the big cheese who was always far away and who sent out gangs to do his dirty work.
This is a simplified version of history but covers the main points of the coming into being of the master and slave power-play and the control by any means by ones who believe and think in such a way that any alternative awareness is contrary to their nationalistic and divine way of being and is vilified and stomped out.
But, wars don’t work, bombs are only good for bombers, power structures only benefit the powerful, lies and deceit are exposed by truth, old beliefs are crumbling, closed minded power-mongers are being seen for what they are, religions that enslave their followers without love are corroding from the inside, ignorance is for the ignorant, truth is for those who want to know and love is the highest energy.
The consciousness of humanity is finally awakening en-masse to the injustices and the control is slipping from those who would stay in power; and as each individual unplugs from the lower levels of being and rises above the darkness to find their own beautiful light the fear is being turned around and we all are coming to see that Earth is a paradise we can bring into being or destroy. It is our choice, to choose out of fear or to choose out of hope.
There is more than enough to go around; we can all live together in harmony; as we live and breathe we can find our purpose; money is not an indication of our worth but is a tool we invented to serve us.
So anyone with half an eye away from the darkness should be able to see some light by now through the lifting veils of illusion.
Capitalism, i.e. greed is breaking down and now that the fear mongers have served themselves from the fat of the land and there’s nothing left they are going to leave us to pick up the pieces.
America is broke and can’t pay its debts so they think to raise the ceiling once more for borrowing thereby putting off the inevitable and making it worse. And if one of the good guys gets to be president such as Bernie Sanders he will be seen as the president in power when the country went down the drain.
If they take the social security money to pay the debts there will be an uprising by many who will be put straight into the camps that have been built all over the states for when this will happen, which means they knew all along this would happen and have prepared for the consequences instead of fixing the problem; which leaves only one conclusion: they are so mad with greed that they have no thought for anyone but themselves, and that makes them insanely dangerous.
If the USA goes down the rest of the world will be direly affected, marshal law will be declared and food and water will be stock piled and rationed out with those in power taking all they want by divine right. Control will be imposed so that all freedoms will be taken away, and more etc; and all this because of the greed of a few, without which the world would run on just fine.
But who really knows what will happen, people are not as stupid or disorganized and war-like as we would be led to believe.
If those in power would go off and live in their utopia and leave us all alone we’d get on just fine. We don’t need them. They have no use to humanity and only cause trouble and hold us back, and like bloodsuckers should be removed and thrown back into the swamp they came from.
Some say we need them for their factories where we slave for a pittance to exist; and without the surveillance we would be beset by terrorists; and that we can’t think for ourselves and so must be controlled for our own good; but it seems the opposite is true and that they only make things worse and that without them we would all be so much better off.
All over the world people are waking up to all this and are no longer living in apathy and helplessly watching it all go on. Every voice raised against injustice is one less sheep to be herded.
It does seem that the tide is turning, and so long as they don’t push the button and blow us all up we have a chance to bring out the best in all of us, to thrive and find the peace we all so desperately need.
But, all in all, logic may not be enough to prevail; and hope is but a salve against despairing; and reality is buried so deep in the layers of disinformation set up to keep it hidden that no matter what, the outcome is already in motion and set up so it can’t fail and benefits only those at the top who hold all the cards, and in this is our downfall; and as in the movie The Matrix, maybe only a compromise can be reached to preserve the status quo.
And so, while the revolution chips off the arms that keep growing back, the head remains out of reach and perpetuates the war where nobody wins but the arms dealers.
However it all may seem, perhaps there is a bigger picture that is happening where good and evil finally stop opposing each other and merge to become one.
If only there was another planet to move to, to get away from this one; but then if there was we’d take along the bad stuff and ruin that one too, and maybe not intentionally but it would happen; if we can’t make it good here then there’s no use trying elsewhere.
What a terrible mess we’ve all made of it here. How can we make it better? How would we even begin?
The more I look at the problem, out there, the bigger it becomes, and so perhaps the only solution I can even attempt is to find peace for me, because if I don’t have that, then what have I got to offer?
They should be here to serve and protect us, to lead and guide for the good of the whole, but it seems they are only in it for themselves...
