Terence McKenna - “I believe that the lost secret of human emergence..the undefined catalyst that took a very bright monkey and turned that species into a self-reflecting dreamer..that catalyst has to be sought in these alkaloids in the food chain that were catalyzing higher states of intellectual activity.”

The Internet and technology as they are today are giving us Godlike powers of perception and action: Digital Natives are the first generation of young adults to be endowed with them.

When you watch TV your brain waves are being changed. You are being put into a semi suggestive state due to flicker rates. This isn’t conspiracy theory this is simply the affect of the flicker rates on your TV. However, being a former businessman I can see how this would be great for advertising. Get you into a suggestible state and then tell you how great my product is.

New political system: a multipolar self-balancing model of government of 5 independent political parties with the movable centre joint decisions would put an end to ideological enmity and consolidate society. http://www.modelgovernment.org/en/

The world systems for a new era will be more likely not to emerge from an elite center, like the Renaissance that sprung up in Florence in the Late Middle Ages, but from a groundswell of people-centred change. The ‘new renaissance’ will come from the periphery or from the bottom-up, a distributed and networked emergence of conscious individuals and groupings.

The way life on Earth is being lived has been a puzzle for thinkers since very ancient times. All of us that have put energy into to it have realised that day-to-day reality has more to it then what is being “told”. It's far more complex then black and white.

Today my message is about the structure of society.

I'm re-posting this blog.

'Rich bankers can today be exposed as a huge drain on society... costing the rest of us £8.40 for every £1 they produce. A study by think-tank the New Economics Foundation found the average banker destroys £42million a year in value while creating just £5million.

Dear friends,
I wish to make here a little reflection on the alternative movements, on what I have seen and felt the past few years.
It is also a message of union, love and hope.

It is now openly apparent, and can no longer be denied or covered over, that many of the material structures in our social world have become a transparent fiction: our financial systems, our job securities, pensions, etc. It is becoming increasingly difficult to believe that these structures will continue to provide for our needs.

We all share a common psychological environment that many of us, most of the time, take for granted.

I just wanted to share this film with you all, I just watched it yesterday and it is amazing! All about the current mess we find ourselves in, free energy technologies, advanced ancient knowledge, crop circles, corrupt banks/poilitics, what their end game is and how we can help contribute to the new paradigm for society.

Here is the website, its $5 to stream it but totally worth every penny.

In an emotional response to society's by-in-large prejudice toward homosexuals as referenced by my previous post: Free To Hate?. I've written the following.

A case is before the Supreme Court of Canada to determine the rights of individuals to express their opinion though it may be hurtful or hateful to others.

Free To Hate?

The ubiquitous words that socially permeate
Are derived from a wayward voice of hate
Directed to the general public with intent to instigate

Pound for Pound

Whirling, swirling busy lives all around
Pointless to the reason yet to be found
Gizmos and gadgets created to astound
Weak attempts for life to be more profound
Distortions and distractions meant to confound
Leaving only debt to indebtedness to compound
To leave one feeling its worth - pound for pound
As happiness eludes any form of middle-ground

How often in life do we find ourselves doing something that is not really us; a job, a line of study, whatever.

The result is that what we become rooted in doesn't quite suit us, therefore we can't become contented because our heart isn't in it.

When newspapers like Swedish www.DN.se describe people who question the official story of 9/11 as paranoid conspiracy theorists who does not understand what happened on 9/11, and therefore make up stories, one hesitates to go out and say - well, I'm one of those people.

What will it take for post-industrial society to listen?

It's so odd to be enmeshed in a system or a culture that is based on exploitation. The will to exploit is rewarded and those who exploit, profit. At some point, people believe that the only way to profit is to exploit and that anyone who is rich has become so by exploiting people, animals or the environment at the highest levels.
