Month: May 2020

Out and about on the internet, ask obnoxious Democrats/Leftists this question: if you found out tomorrow that this virus was only a small, small fraction as dangerous as first feared and that everyone but the old and sickly can go back to work TOMORROW, would you be happy?

It seems like the self evident answer would be yes, but my experience thus far is that they don’t want to answer the question.  Interesting, but not surprising.

And just LOOK at how much positive information the press is sitting on.  I just learned by DuckDuckGo search yesterday, I think it was, that a German doctor confirmed people stop being infectious as soon as antibodies form, which is certainly within ten days or so, and likely less for many.  Certainly, if you’ve known you have it for a couple days, and not wound up in the hospital, then you are almost certainly no longer infectious.

This study was published in March, but I have not seen it reported.  On the contrary, I keep seeing people saying “we just don’t KNOW”.  I saw a study today where they found traces of COVID-19 in peoples bodies 40 days after initial infection.  What they did not say is that these are shattered pieces of the virus, that stopped replicating a long, long time ago, meaning that that person was not infectious for 40 days AT ALL, and there is no reasonable reason to think they were. 

It’s smoke and mirrors.  It’s fog.  It’s a distraction based shell game.  Whatever you call it, we are being bamboozled and bullshitted.

The Democrats and power elite don’t want this thing to end.  They aren’t done yet having their fun, and ruining our economy.

I think in our present age (I am tempted to call it fallen, but it’s hard to say; slavery was common everywhere for most of the ages of man, as was, as I just referenced, misogyny, or at least sexism) two thirds of “spirituality” consists in being happy and healthy.  Both are not common enough, both are useful to the population as a whole.

To be happy, when everyone is miserable, is an inherently generous act, both to oneself and to others.

In my own little imaginative mind, I tend to look to Central Asia for the authentic Old School spirituality.  To Tibet and its monasteries and caves.  To the ‘stans and their Sufi saints.

But us, we have little connection to all of this.  Idries Shah has written some useful stuff.  He was an Afghani.  And everything Tarthang Tulku (The Saint or Incarnation of a Master of Tarthang monastery) has written has been fantastic.  Useful to me at least, although I continue to have my doubts about the people responsible for teaching and spreading it.

But I think for most of us, in this materialistic–and I mainly mean the philosophical aspect, although of course the consumeristic aspect is omnipresent–age, simply living each day with respect for, and a connection with, the life that springs out of us at every moment, is perhaps the single most useful, and revolutionary act, we can commit or offer.

If you can feel the life in you, and feel the life in a tree, then you are getting close, I think, to what is possible now, in this ThoughtSphere, in this Collective Unconscious.

And in the same sense that meditation consists in finding, identifying, and focusing and expanding something good, so too as nations and people we need to find the goodness within us, focus on it, build it, expand it, and see where it leads.

There is really no good path to a good future being guided by morally blind sociopaths, which is what we would get with a world government, at least at this point in our moral evolution.  The people need to lead the way, and the task of our leaders is to keep the path open.

The thirst for power proceeds more or less directly from an internal lack of freedom.  Free men and women do not seek power over others.  Only slaves do. 

Yin and Yang.  Each becomes the other.
