Arrogance and the Art of Political Shadow Boxing (updated & revisited)

This post was inspired by a journalist friend who left the following comment on my Facebook wall: "I've met [Anwar Ibrahim] in person and he looked right through me, although I had to personally escort him. He makes my skin crawl. A couple of reporters I know who have interviewed him also say that this kind of arrogance was pretty normal even when he was DPM." Anwar had just been acquitted when I posted this in January 2012. Then AG Abdul Gani Patail immediately appealed the verdict, to the disgust of those who can't imagine ever being so viciously vindictive and venomous.

At 19 I met a fortune teller who read my palms and told me I will never have a boss. And that has held true my entire life. I don't regard anybody or any spirit as my "superior."

All political leaders, including Anwar Ibrahim, must ultimately bow to the rakyat as their boss. Others may bow before some concept of God or Devil. I don't.

In effect, other people's arrogance is just a joke to me. Arrogance, I know, is only a front - a form of ego armoring required for warfare. Just as Muhammad Ali used arrogance and conceit as a psychological weapon to inject apprehension and anxiety into his opponents, every successful politician learns to talk big and scare his adversaries. In the animal kingdom, puffer fish and peacocks inflate various parts of their anatomy to scare off rivals and attract potential mates.

Anwar is good at that - and he is used to being in the limelight. Every rockstar knows what it's like to have thousands clamoring for you to appear on stage - it's addictive and scary at the same time. It takes a special kind of temperament to thrive under those high-pressure circumstances. Anwar has got it in abundance - he has trained himself all his life to become a political icon.

Have you ever had to escort Mahathir or Najib anywhere? Would they have looked right through you too... or looked straight into your eyes and noticed what a beautiful human being you are and suggested you add them on Facebook? The point I'm making is simply this: in a primitive culture where politics holds sway and policemen obey only those they deem their superiors, we desperately require regime change.

corporate wunderkind

If you remove Anwar Ibrahim from the equation at this juncture, what you're asking for is that the status quo remain unchanged. Look at the ego conflicts amongst activists and opinion makers - people like Haris Ibrahim, Ambiga Sreenevasan, Lim Chee Wee, Art Harun, Azmi Sharom, Malik Imtiaz... and let's toss in a few from the murky side, like RPK, Anas Zubedy, Chandra Muzaffar, Ezam Mohd Nor. Do you honestly think the ship of state will sail smoothly on course if it was left to a committee of debaters, public masturbators and would-be emancipators?

Until there are enough enlightened souls in our midst - ones who have internalized God and no longer regard external authority as real or legitimate - we will need some sort of political structure. And the best one (or the least noxious) I have seen thus far is the Pakatan Rakyat coalition led by Anwar Ibrahim.

I'm seriously tired of apparently intelligent people putting the brakes on the change by misapplyng their skepticism at what is, to me, a critical juncture in our political evolution. So, who do you wish to see in Anwar's place? I'm really interested to know....

LET THE ANARCHY BEGIN... (Reprise)

From "Joan Danvers' College Years" (davidchess.com)

A TV talkshow host* once asked me point-blank during a panel discussion if I were an anarchist.

“Of course,” I unhesitatingly replied, which took him aback. He quickly changed the subject. I guess the talkshow host, like most people I meet, was unaware what “anarchy” actually means.

My Oxford Concise Dictionary tautologically defines anarchy as “a society or political system founded on the principles of anarchism.” And how does it define anarchism? “Belief in the abolition of all government and the organization of society on a voluntary, cooperative basis.”

The Concise Oxford Dictionary is a bit off the mark here. It fails to distinguish between internal and external government. There’s a vast difference between self-imposed discipline and discipline enforced upon us by those who claim to know what’s best. The true anarchist is a self-governing entity who attains freedom from external dictates through rigorous integrity and transparency. As Bob Dylan wryly observed: “To live outside the law you gotta be honest.”

And how does one become honest?

Very simple. First you have to replace the concept of a judgmental and punitive parent-deity with an essentially loving, non-judgmental and extremely friendly notion of divinity - sort of a best buddy and trusted confidant(e). The problem is that souls evolve at different rates – and at this point in time the grossly immature ones appear to outnumber the ones who have made it through to self-governance.

(Incidentally the word “govern” comes from the Latin gubernare - “to steer or rule” – borrowed from the original Greek word kubernan, which simply means “to steer.”) This makes anarchism a difficult, if not impossible, ideal.**

Which explains why the word “anarchy” has been commonly misinterpreted as “disorder and general unruliness.”

In truth, anarchy is the final state to which monarchy aspires. How so? An enlightened ruler’s essential function is to be a shining example of dignity, nobility, and self-control for his or her subjects to emulate (just as a real teacher would be fulfilled to watch his or her students graduate as teachers in their own right).

Governance begins with monarchy and evolves through a whole gamut of isms before it finally achieves anarchism – the glorious state wherein “political parties” are defined as grand public celebrations at which everybody eats, drinks, and makes merry – and the human race transforms into the human dance.

As children we learn to lie in order to avoid punishment from grown-ups who would never understand why we do the things we do. Remove the punishment and – voila! – the crime disappears. But... but... but... I can hear the vociferous objections from the peanut gallery.

My old pal Socrates postulated that one sure way of telling true from false authority is simply this: false authority inevitably resorts to coercion, while true authority has all the patience in the world, since it emanates from the timeless realm.

Politics is fond of posing as a self-improving system of governance but we all know it actually boils down to who calls the shots. People mistake FORCE for POWER. If you disagree with me, I’ll nuke you! That’s FORCE of the crudest order. If you criticize my management style I’ll throw you in jail! That’s FORCE too, even if it takes the form of a threat.

So how does TRUE POWER reveal itself?

It encourages and inspires. It loves and loves. Note that the words "encourage" and "inspire" have powerful etymologies. Courage derives from corage, to give heart; and inspirare means to “breathe or blow into” (and that’s how we get the word spiritus).

To inspire is to fill others with spirit, semangat. That’s the proper definition of TRUE POWER. Love as a verb, not just a noun.

In short, politics as it is practiced on this planet is largely a grotesque travesty of real (and royal) values. Look what’s happening in America (“Home of the Brave, Land of the Free”) – electoral fraud and skullduggery got Dubya the presidency twice... then came Barack Obama and little changed... now American voters are over a barrel with an utterly dysfunctional two-party system, both corrupted by campaign funders with deep pockets. When business jumps into bed with politics guess who gets thoroughly screwed?

Taxpayers of the world, start governing yourselves! George Harrison once sang about the ones “who gain the world and lose their souls.” Well, do you fancy being governed by the soulless? I bet not! However, no need to rush out into the streets to get water-cannoned, tear-gassed, pepper-sprayed, bludgeoned, finger-printed, incarcerated and tortured.

Evolution, not revolution!

Deactivate your reptilian fear programming in the privacy of your own mind! The fewer fears you cling to, the more you’ll be able to empathize, understand, and love. When you mature as conscious souls, you’ll find you actually have no enemies. You’ll outgrow the need to scapegoat, to pin the blame on somebody else. You’ll no longer create demons to appease, obey, or be tormented by - or a Big Brother to protect you from your own shadow self.

For a start, wean yourself off your addiction to that lethal dose of daily news from the mainstream media – you know who controls the programming, don’t you? The stuff is psychically toxic, designed to slowly, imperceptibly poison your sense of well-being like arsenic mixed into the paintwork.

When you finally locate the innermost core of your being, you’ll find your sovereign self regally seated on your own throne. You’ll know the meaning of dignity, integrity, nobility – and, above all, compassion. As each individual attains this blessed state of divine sovereignty, the brutal stupidity of politics will be expelled like so much stinky flatus by the transmutative power of internal, chromosomal, genetic change – the only real (and royal) change there is.

**Attaining true anarchy may be "difficult, if not impossible" - but do bear in mind that prior to 8 March 2008 most Malaysians believed that depriving the Barisan Nasional of their parliamentary two-thirds majority was well nigh "impossible."

De Mockery of Democracy (Reprise)

[My young friend Kamil sent me the following assignment question, asking for some viewpoints from me. I figured my response to Kamil was worth blogging, so here it is...]

It has been said that democracy may not be the perfect form of goverment but it is better than the alternatives. To what extent do you agree?

Certain assumptions are being made here that may be inaccurate or incorrect, So before we can answer the question, let's examine what these assumptions are.

Assumption #1: Democracy exists and is practised in certain countries.
In truth democracy is purely theoretical. Even in old Athens where it was invented, there was only democracy up to a point - beyond which one could get arrested for subversion, imprisoned, and end up drinking hemlock. The state is forever jealous of its authority and power, and will not hesitate to use force if persuasion fails. In so-called democratic countries, we find that the public is led to believe it has freedom of choice - but in actuality that freedom does not extend beyond the most trivial matters (like the make of car you drive or the scent your date prefers). In all crucial areas decisions are made by "backroom boys" acting on behalf of a tiny handful of plutocrats (people who own banks, newspapers, TV stations, bomb factories, armies, spy agencies, and governments).

The machinery of political power is driven by popular votes. However, elections can be rigged, conducted on an uneven playing field, and stolen outright. Voters can be bought, hoodwinked, disenfranchised or overlooked completely. Because "majority opinion" is measured quantitatively, human destiny can be jeopardized or hijacked by a corrupt and dishonest clique willing to take extraordinary risks. The proverbial man-in-the-street doesn't stand a chance against a cartel of well-funded criminals, who obtain their money through illicit means and buy up all the airspace. He can't be heard against a well-coordinated media blitz.

In effect, scratch a modern democracy and you'll find mobster rule. Robber barons and pirate kings now come with a slick corporate image and very expensive tailoring. But gangsterism is gangsterism, and privilege actually means "private law." So when even the law is privatized, is it any wonder that justice is blind?

Democracy originally meant "popular rule" - in effect, government of the people, by the people, for the people. Which sounds pretty similar to Marxist/socialist ideals. However, you only have to have the means of influencing the collective psyche to make the people believe they are exercising their democratic rights when all they can do is predictably react to pre-programmed stimuli.

Assumption #2: Though imperfect democracy is "better than"...
"Better" is a very vague term and begs redefinition. This dish is good but that one is better... in reality the other dish is simply different. You cannot compare pheasant-under-glass with a hamburger. Each recipe works in a specific context. In other words, a fair comparison is hinted at where none is possible.

Assumption #3: The word "alternatives" implies Communism.
A popular misconception is that the opposite of democracy is communism. Actually, it's dictatorship we're talking about: what's antagonistic to popular rule is state despotism - whether the despot is a single individual or a faceless committee. The alternative to democracy might also be monarchy - or various spin-offs like aristocracy, meritocracy, or plutocracy. Nevertheless, there are no clear-cut categories of power. If we have an absolute monarch who is approachable, open-minded, empathetic, humble, friendly, and wise - let's take as an example the notion of a "King of Kings" like Jesus the Christ, or Aragorn of Arathorn in J.R.R. Tolkien's ringlore - the public may actually enjoy great freedom and security, prosperity and success under such benevolent and enlightened rule. As opposed to the situation where a supposedly democratic government functions under the secret orders of an invisible brotherhood of black magicians and decadent junior gods: people would endure increasing oppression and never know who exactly is taking away their freedoms and rights, life just seems to get rougher and tougher all the time.

The concept of government itself needs to be reassessed. An individual with sufficient inner discipline can be described as a Self-Governing Individual who does not subscribe to or support any form of external government. When enough such individuals emerge in a community, it's possible that anarchy will blossom in a wholesome and workable way where each member of the community cooperates with the others consciously, willingly, and wholeheartedly. Imagine the amount of creativity generated by humans no longer engrossed in destructivity or obsessed with conformity and homogeneity.

One can view government as an unwelcome intrusion - akin to a high fence built around the crest of hill to prevent people from rolling down through carelessness. In trying to ensure "public safety" what government effectively does is disempower and desensitize. After a few generations, people would become incapable of taking any initiative whatsoever, in a sure-footed way. They will NEED official guidelines, clearly-marked trails, and instructions at every turn. In effect, people would no longer be able to sit quietly atop the hill and gain divine inspiration from the beauty around them – because the man-made “security” fence mars the view and is ugly, that is, a violation of the natural environment and the unwritten laws of harmony. This may suit those in power very nicely, but it invariably incapacitates the masses from independent and original thought. They will become blind and allow themselves to be led around by ravenous wolves disguised as professional seeing-eye dogs.

What would be much "better than" democracy would be an evolutionary quantum jump that would effectively upgrade Consciousness and Intelligence and realign them with Compassion. No amount of theorizing can make this happen. Those of us who realize this simply have to embody our ideals and break free of semantic traps such as the question above. No statistics are required. It only takes ONE individual to crack the code - and before long, not only the entire species, but all lifeforms will regain their primordial freedom.

Provocative snippets from an archived Sent Folder... (repost)

Last week I finally handed in my Compaq laptop to HP to get the CD/DVD drive replaced... and I've  regained access to a pile of CDs dating back almost 10 years wherein I've stored all sorts of data - from digitized music files and scanned images to entire folders of emails written 9 years ago. Stuff that would otherwise have disappeared forever with each hard drive crash. Here's a random selection of email snippets (dating from 2003 and 2004) which I reproduce here because the information is still relevant and may be of interest to some of you... and also because I'm utterly bored with the desperate dimness of all the death throe effluvia oozing from the orifices of the recalcitrant (and soon to be irrelevant) misruling elites...


TRUTH IS INVARIABLY STRANGER THAN FICTION

And the simple Truth is: all our religious dogmas and all the teachings allegedly introduced to us by a succession of Avatars has been filtered, tampered with, twisted beyond recognition - simply to keep us barking up the wrong tree and believing - as the Manichaeans did - that Spirit is "above" and "transcendent" to Matter and that we have to kill our egos and suppress our animal natures to "reach God."

Indeed, the Ascension process itself has been turned on its head - leading so many "New Agers" to believe it's more important to be "spiritual" than "merely" physical (as in being completely anchored in molecular awareness and physical form). What is actually happening to me is that I'm finishing the Complete Download of my Primal Godself so as to fully DESCEND into my body and reclaim it from the Worms that have long believed our bodies to be their food source.

CONVERSATION WITH A YOUNG MAGICKIAN NAMED BLAIR

Dear Blair,

You bragged about your prowess as a ritual magickian of the lefthand path, but added that you've since gone ethical and got yourself a job. What sort of work do you do where you have to be up at 5 a.m.? From your energy and syntax, I'd guess that you're an old-headed young man - maybe in your late twenties or early thirties. Am I far off the mark?

As for the rant itself, your grievances are fairly universal and accurately describe the 3D Matrix of Death, Decay and Disease. However, I might have thought a veteran magickian would have found some way to operate beyond the mundane necessity of being a wage slave!

Your present circumstances could, of course, indicate that you went overboard in your magickal work at some point and had your wings chemically clipped - and then you were reinserted into the Matrix, which explains your deep resentment of everything around you.

What I find particularly intriguing is that you call yourself an "Anarcho-Monarchist" - which is precisely how I once described my own political leanings. I explained it thus: I would willingly pledge fealty to someone who naturally inspired allegiance and respect - a true monarch with a luminous crown chakra like, say, Yeshu or Aragorn or Frank Zappa or Sting.

Alas, there are only too few true monarchs to be found in recent centuries (most of the present day royal houses being populated by descendants of usurpers). Indeed, I would myself be willing to accept the lifelong burden of divine kingship (in Thailand the tradition of the Chakravartin or Universal King goes back to ancient times) - but it has been a very long while since humans were able to perceive the luminosity of chakras and thereby recognize those who have attained specific levels of spiritual maturity and cosmic consciousness.

Today it's the corporate-sponsored campaign video produced by expensive spin-doctors - and even then the real power-broking action happens behind the scenes.

The Illuminati network began as a covert resistance to a corrupt and militarily mighty "Holy" Roman Empire - indeed the Knights Templar were originally dedicated to the retrieval and protection of sacred emblems pertaining to the rightful heirs to the throne of Judaea - and by extension the rest of the "civilized" world. Their entire mission was to reclaim planetary governance. But, as we all know, they were either destroyed by the Inquisition or infiltrated and splintered into bickering factions, and this holds true till today.

In lieu of a rightful monarch with whom to align, the only viable alternative has been anarchy.

This is, of course, Tolkien's central motif in the Ring Trilogy... and the "Return of the King" happens to be the core metaphor running through all epic myths, from Odysseus to Star Wars to Tarzan of the Apes and the New Testament.

How I have resolved the problem is to reconcile the Anarchist in me with the Monarch inherent within my DNA. By consciously accepting the scepter of Divine Kingship as exemplified by Yeshu the Christ, I no longer have to seek externally for a Higher Authority.

By embodying deep compassion and universal understanding, the Monarch Within has come to accept and love the Anarchist, the Peter Pan within; and thus Reason and Spirit can be unified and our core beings reintegrated as Divine Fractals sovereign unto our true selves.

I hope this offers you a degree of solace. I do feel a great empathy with your soul.

Blair wrote:

I do not want to slam the door shut forever on God. I have my problems with God but in the final analysis I do forgive God, and would hope to be given understandings as to why I have suffered so much in this world, when I am reunited with the Universal Mind after death....

Ah, prodigal Sun! No fatted calf this time around, pointless taking risks with Mad Cow on the rampage! You are nevertheless greatly beloved and cherished. Indeed, your words reveal an amazingly innocent inner core.

Thanks for your thought-provoking, love-evoking response, Blair. If the urge ever arises, do tell me what sort of suffering you've survived. Sometimes it helps just to tell someone.

MY ADVICE TO BRAHMA

Hey Antares! How are you? I am still to get there some time, but maybe not in time for the stargate activation ceremony. My intent will nonetheless be with you.. So wise wizard of the light, I have a question for you about my present journey... Seems I am processing a past life experience and /or integrating some energy that I could only describe as reptilian. Extreme aggression, amazing physical stamina, sexual power trips and mind control are some of the attributes. Quite terrifying for peaceful old Brahma. I thought for a while that I was being possessed by a nasty spirit - but it is all me, albeit an ancient me to be integrated, I now see. Does this make any sense to you? Any assistance or suggestions? ~ Brahma

Greetings, Brahma!

Good that this program is manifesting so vividly a this point - so at least your other aspects can become aware of it and pay attention to what it means.

We are all a multi-layered genetic cocktail - but the renegade reptilian DNA distorted the morphogenetic field to the extent that we now witness eruptions of acute sadomasochism and other socio-pathological behaviors - rape, torture, brutal murder, child molestation, berserker gods, and so on - across the board.

Seems you have a sizeable dose of reptilian creator-god genetics from the early days of the invasion and colonization of the Earth, interwoven with the more angelic strands - indeed, nothing to be alarmed about as most of us with strong ego drives have this "problem" - it's what propels individuals like Alexander or Charlemagne or Napoleon to seek "greatness" by dominating others.

Can be a shitty program to deactivate, especially since the adrenaline rush of the artificial power trip is really addictive. But once you recognize and identify the genetic trait as one that's being phased out of the evolutionary process, you consciously make a decision to gently let go of it rather than be dragged back down into the hellish pits of holographic horrors wherein pain and suffering are either inflicted or endured.

I guess it's something akin to "possession" by hostile astral parasites - only thing is, the impulse to dominate is inherent within the DNA - that's why the renegade reptilians opted for their agenda of "racial supremacy" and began tampering with their own genetics to turn themselves into a ruthless, unfeeling, warlike species capable of pillaging and plundering and planting their genetic flag wherever they could, becoming universal predators and introducing the fang-and-claw survival-at-all-costs program into our embedded circuitry.

In India, the ascetics became vegetarian, fasted, subjected their bodies to all sorts of rigorous discipline in an attempt to exorcise exactly this genetic trait - with varying results. The emotional therapies available to us today are far gentler and possibly more effective.

Heiko & Selina Niedermeyer

For instance, what Heiko & Selina have been doing with the Releasing technique they practice can soften up the subconscious so that it discharges these stored memories into the conscious where they can be transmuted - and hence HEALING soon follows.

Many ways this can happen - different strokes for different folks. In your case, I feel you have sufficient intelligence and self-awareness to begin the process - but it's usually easier if you can find an empathetic sounding board - someone who can assist you in the process.

The fact that you brought up this issue is already a very positive indication that you've begun the task of shedding this unnecessary skin of reactionary reptilian implants and liberating yourself from apocalyptic scenarios. If you can do it, so can Ariel Sharon and Dick Cheney!

When we meet at Magick River, I'll give you a scan and see if the "problem" is already resolved, as it may well be by the time you get here.


Brahma wrote: You seem to be my sounding board at the moment, hope you’re still traveling with me on all this stuff... and might have some answers on this one too.

The shamanistic experiments you describe can be fun to play with but a lot of times you're opening your field to etheric micro-organisms - yup, they're really just like bacteria - that can ultimately fuck up your ability to be a simple, straightforward, honest, divine human with absolutely no problems.

It's a bit like being an Orang asli kid with a powerful catapult larking around in the forest and shooting at anything that moves: first he hits a couple of defenceless birdies, then he knocks down a green mango, and finally he inadvertently shoots an old boar right in the snout... well, those guys have wicked tusks, you don't want one of those charging at you through the psychic undergrowth!

In effect, you've been toying with a species of black magic very popular with the Khazarian or Ashkenazi Jews who were well-known for their occult knowledge (that's why all their best wizards and astrologers have always been co-opted to serve the Babylonian nobility, manifest in modern times as the Military-Industrial-Financial Complex). These mentalists were really into creating golems to do their bidding and steal stuff for them, sort of like a voodoo Fagin.

I don't know if this sort of magic originated in Lemuria - it must have - and then migrated to Atlantis before becoming part of the Ashkenazi Jewish and Gypsy heritage.

You're a big boy, Brahma, and can look after yourself - so I'm not going to pass you any avuncular advice you probably won't take on board anyway. ALL ELSE SAID, INNOCENCE IS STILL THE BEST POSSIBLE INSURANCE AGAINST INSANITY!

CALLING UPON "JESUS CHRIST" 
FOR PROTECTION

First of all, I'd like to share my gut feelings on the much-circulated "alien intervention" message... the sentiments expressed therein seem quite benign and well-intentioned and are in fact the projection of what millions of awakening humans have long secretly hoped to witness, sort of like hearing the triumphant blare of bugles as reinforcements from the U.S. Cavalry arrive just in time to rescue the occupants of the besieged fort from being scalped by marauding redskins - the very stuff of classic Hollywood cowboys-&-injuns movies.

Today many would laugh at the obvious spin and take the side of the vastly outgunned Injuns rather than the invading U.S. Cavalry. Nonetheless, the desire for a deus ex machina solution to seemingly insurmountable problems is very much part of our adolescent psyche - and the 5th human root race is predominantly just reaching young adulthood in spiritual terms, which means adolescent yearnings are still pretty much present.

While reading the long "channeling" from the unnamed alien group (anonymity always makes me suspicious; there is so much crap on the Internet, because email addresses are so impersonal and conceal more than they reveal) the teenaged part of me was thrilled to think that we might soon be sitting around chewing the fat with our starry brothers and sisters - BUT the more "street-savvy" part of me was saying: "Wait a minute! Doesn't this sound a bit like a new-age species of cargo cultism (this refers to the "religion" spawned by early contact between Papua New Guinean natives and the very first white men they encountered who arrived by seaplane, bearing wonderful gifts)?

Soon after the initial largesse of baccy, beads and baubles, came the colonizers, timber merchants, and troops...

Now I'm not at all xenophobic by nature - but my deep intuition informs me that REAL transformations ALWAYS occur from WITHIN. The bi-polarity of our earthly Punch & Judy melodramas exist only as a mirror to our own split personalities, they are intended as feedback to help us outgrow the urge to forever seek scapegoats and distract ourselves from the inner quest with external enemies, real or imagined.

In my opinion, the televised arrival of visitors from other sectors of the Milky Way or beyond will do little for our own spiritual maturation. The mess we are facing is of our own making, and must be cleared by our own realizations, through our own volition.

For the most part our problems stem from the fact that the Adamic Race was genetically manipulated (by "fallen angel" ETs generally called the Jehovian-Anunnaki) to seek deliverance through messiahs and follow charismatic leaders. This is what we have to outgrow: the desire to give away our power to emblems of external authority, whether they be white-smocked scientists, politicos in dark suits and red ties, blonde bombshells from Venus, or cute little blue balls of light from the Pleiades.

It's not that I disbelieve in a richly populated cosmos - indeed I know we are not alone and never have been. However, I've long sensed that bona fide bodhisattvas from other evolutionary spirals enter our physical reality by projecting fractals of themselves holographically into earthly incarnations - ET emissaries and starry midwives to humanity's ascension are already amongst us by the thousands, perhaps even millions - but they are in human embodiment and can be contacted via email.

No need for them to arrive like some Industrial Light Magic special effect in mechanical merkabas (I'm reminded of Tim Burton's Hawaiian music hating Martians in red jockey shorts).

As for the OTHER message.... sorry, I am quite repulsed by the low-grade frequencies emanating from it. There are two significant clues that reveal that its source is not impeccable:

1) The name JESUS CHRIST is a gross distortion of the human potential for full fusion with the divine, a state of being described as Christ consciousness or attaining the Christos. No one who truly understands the process will use the vulgar Christianized version which robs it of authentic meaning.

In the first place the Anglicized name "Jesus" disconnects us from the experience of being "Yeshua" (the Hebrew name written as IH-Sh-VH, which kabbalistically denotes the alchemical wedding of Spirit and Matter). And by corrupting the name to "Jesus Christ" we become blind to the fact that the Christ is NOT a surname but an office or title like King or President - and it means "perfect master" or "anointed one."

In other words, the Christ is a state of being that we are all destined to attain, sooner or later, just as Buddha is another degree of Awareness often described as "awake" or "enlightened." Now if the name were rendered "Jesus the Christ" (as you find in The Aquarian Gospel) - then there's a good chance that the source of the information is kosher, simply because this reveals that the writer is referring to a culture hero popularly known as Yeheshua or Yeshua or Joshua (referred to as Emmanuel in the first chapter of the New Testament) who successfully attained Christ consciousness 2,000 years ago and made it possible for posterity to do the same.

The "Second Coming" indicates a massive awakening into Christ consciousness - crucial to our ascension. While it is perfectly possible that the Sananda aspect that incarnated 2,000 years ago as Yeshua might be physically present on Earth at this juncture, he would certainly not be accepted as such or recognized by those who regard themselves as Christians.

2) The tract ends with AMEN - the name of a bloodthirsty god of war (also known as Amun or Moloch) whose corrupt priesthood continues to mislead humanity and whose insidious and distorting influence extends to all entrenched institutions on Earth. Wherever economic and military might rules, there you shall find the hidden hand of AMEN!

Indeed, there is little doubt that all institutionalized religions on Earth - including the Mammonism practiced by our rapacious corporate entities - merely serve as fronts for the hypocritical and vampiric cult of Amen.

Arrogance and the Art of Political Shadow Boxing

This post was inspired by a journalist friend who left the following comment on my Facebook wall: "I've met [Anwar Ibrahim] in person and he looked right through me, although I had to personally escort him. He makes my skin crawl. A couple of reporters I know who have interviewed him also say that this kind of arrogance was pretty normal even when he was DPM."

At 19 I met a fortune teller who read my palms and told me I will never have a boss. And that has held true my entire life. I don't regard anybody or any spirit as my "superior."

All political leaders, including Anwar Ibrahim, must ultimately bow to the rakyat as their boss. Others may bow before some concept of God or Devil. I don't.

In effect, other people's arrogance is just a joke to me. Arrogance, I know, is only a front - a form of ego armoring required for warfare. Just as Muhammad Ali used arrogance and conceit as a psychological weapon to inject apprehension and anxiety into his opponents, every successful politician learns to talk big and scare his adversaries. In the animal kingdom, puffer fish and peacocks inflate various parts of their anatomy to scare off rivals and attract potential mates.

Anwar is good at that - and he is used to being in the limelight. Every rockstar knows what it's like to have thousands clamoring for you to appear on stage - it's addictive and scary at the same time. It takes a special kind of temperament to thrive under those high-pressure circumstances. Anwar has got it in abundance - he has trained himself all his life to become a political icon.

Have you ever had to escort Mahathir or Najib anywhere? Would they have looked right through you too... or looked straight into your eyes and noticed what a beautiful human being you are and suggested you add them on Facebook? The point I'm making is simply this: in a primitive culture where politics holds sway and policemen obey only those they deem their superiors, we desperately require regime change.

corporate wunderkind

If you remove Anwar Ibrahim from the equation at this juncture, what you're asking for is that the status quo remain unchanged. Look at the ego conflicts amongst activists and opinion makers - people like Haris Ibrahim, Ambiga Sreenevasan, Lim Chee Wee, Azmi Sharom, Malik Imtiaz, Art Harun... and let's toss in a few from the murky side, like RPK, Anas Zubedy, Chandra Muzaffar, Ezam Mohd Nor. Do you honestly think the ship of state will sail smoothly on course if it was left to a committee of debaters, public masturbators and would-be emancipators?

Until there are enough enlightened souls in our midst - ones who have internalized God and no longer regard external authority as real or legitimate - we will need some sort of political structure. And the best one I have seen thus far is the Pakatan Rakyat coalition led by Anwar Ibrahim.

I'm seriously tired of apparently intelligent people putting the brakes on the change by misapplyng their skepticism at what is, to me, a critical juncture in our political evolution. So, who do you wish to see in Anwar's place? I'm really interested to know....
