Organizational Discombobulation

Wed, 19th Aug 2009 06:44

Organizations love organization. Everything must be ‘just so’, all in their proper place. Predictably, it becomes all very much predictable. *yawn*

There are a number of weaknesses inherent in the organization structure. There is just no way around it, these weaknesses create vast gaping holes which provide ample opportunity for the organization to self-implode, to go up in smoke. The followers as well as the provincial authority both become glorified with their own place in the universe - as they see it. Covered eyes do not see and so walking among the dead is a task easily accomplished along with the effected changes.

Sometimes, when those of mind-altering self-appreciative tendencies are left to stand alone they tend to fall alone. You can’t offer up a suitable scapegoat when ‘power’ has been condensed unto a personality. The target becomesnaked and bare. This is like saying that truth will prevail but truth actually never does, it just is.

You Can Run But You Can't Hide

Thu, 23rd Apr 2009 11:07

Scientology is quite the interesting subject. It not only contains pitfalls and deathtraps which were newly created by the taken-over church, but it also contains an absolutely wonderful array of tools, tips and techniques for one’s spiritual growth. Personally, there is no attachment to any particular philosophy, religion or way of life but there is a great deal of interest in that which mirrors the truth of my own being. Scientology became a part of that truth a number of years ago and yet today it still has the potential and the ability to excite the harmonic tuning fork of truth. It rings and rings quite loudly along with the echoing vibratory effects which seems to bowl over whatever it is that comes before it.

But that is only for those whose awareness makes it so.

During a bout of administrative duties an article came up which brought the above to light - once again. It describes an aspect of spiritual behavior quite nicely which deals with the almost ‘natural’ ability of a spiritual being to run away or hide.

Pretending that something doesn’t exist gives it perpetuity by feeding it energy in order to make it non-existent. That sounds quite strange but in fact non-existence requires the absence of energy. In pretending that something doesn’t exist we must first give it substance and that can only be accomplished by feeding it energy. It’s called “Feeding the Beast”.

The Good Ship Lollipop

Thu, 26th Mar 2009 17:35

Status updates are becoming quite the interesting thing. Action not only abounds in this universe but holographically speaking the depth and breath of experiential delight knows no bounds. The fun just never seems to end!

As for the rest of us, we would rather let ourselves out the door than to partake in such orgastic bombastic insanity.

Undeterred by the rebuke, some things have gone from light to bumping around in the dark while the opposite comes to fruition. In this game of life and living there is no such thing as sides when it comes to insanity where the universe has stopped just short of going mad - mad with desire.

Everyone, it seems, wants a piece of the pie.

Vector Analysis Boards (VABs)

David Griffin first brought this subject to light and I don’t think that many fully realize the importance of it.

It’s not important from the standpoint of ‘figure-figuring’ things out, and it’s not important as an addition to a ‘that’s interesting’ mentality. There is much, much more behind the subject than what may, at first, appear.

VABs are used quite heavily even by those who are completely ignorant of their workings. Why is that?

How is it that particular ‘ways’ of doing things, as defined by VAB technology, are employed exactly as laid out by those who supposedly know ‘nothing’ of it’s use or application.

There must be more to this than meets the eye.

Look, It's Xenu!

Now that the cat is out of the bag regarding Elvis I wanted to put something into perspective regarding OT III, sometimes called The Wall of Fire.

There are no accidents and there is no such thing as a ‘coincidence’.

It is no ‘accident’ that the Galactic Patrol got it’s ass kicked. It’s no ‘accident’ that millions were screened, implanted and let loose. It is no ‘accident’ that in the merry-go-round of TTA or this time around, deja vue keeps getting in the way. Yes, it is no accident that the entire Universe seems to have gone mad.

That’s a lot of purpose-full activity. Who in their right mind would even take the time to dream up such?

Well, perhaps this is dreamtime.

Status Report: 14 Jul 2008

Mon, 14th Jul 2008 07:26

No status reports have been filed for some time but recent events have required the report of the following.

Loses can take many forms. Through time, place, form and event experience unfolds and makes it’s self known. The recent loss of a ship is not entirely unexpected nor is it a surprise by any means. Losses are not exactly “to be expected” since this would require a contrary viewpoint, but they are part and parcel of the playing board. As pieces come to be moved upon the board time, place, form and event come to be established. This is not being referred to in the justification of a loss, but simply as background material in which to view the on-going events.

Rogue parties have recently revealed themselves by taking out a Free Zone ship in near orbit. All hands were lost save for the few who were assigned elsewhere at the time of incident. In order to carry out this destructionthe parties involved were compelled to step out of the shadows in order to slay the dragon. The dragon is now dead and yet the cry of victory is being held in reserve. Why is that?

The question is not asked in order to elicit an answer but to promote further inquiry into one’s own universe of understanding.

The ship involved was stationed “just so” quite a while ago and has never deviated in it’s position. Like the shooting booth at the fair, the ducks are lined accordingly and can be expected to be at a certain time in a certain place for any such action as one might pay the booth master for.

Well, the game has been completed and the prize given away.

The Snap-Back Effect

Mon, 23rd Jun 2008 07:42

Effects become the determining cause for our future actions. As silly as that sounds most of the humanoids who walk the Earth whether embodied or not take action to be predicated upon outside causes - or in other words, effects which they find to be worthy of regard. This is of course not a methodology conducive to self sustainability. In losing one’s self we come to believe in the here after. After the fall of one’s own integrity there is little point in living at all so why not embrace death and destruction?

And so, upon this blue jewel we find a plethora of death and destruction fraught by Man’s fervent descent into the Night of the Long Lost Soul.

As determined by the Scales of Justice, balance is always brought to bear. This balancing act of equilibrium is also called The Snap-Back Effect. Coming to terms with one’s own destructiveness occurs through choice or conviction. As a whole, Man is quite well known for it’s proclivity towards conviction. Responsibility comes to be laid at the feet of some imagined future generation who will bear the burden of recompense. What folly!

Setting Theta Free

Mon, 9th Jun 2008 08:07

A lot has been said about the Grand Council, Galactic Patrol, Grand federation, etc, etc. In the scheme of things this planet is a small bayou out in the middle of no-where with as much importance as a baloney sandwich on rye. But that is only one interpretation or level of understanding. There are many levels of understanding on the route to totality and fortunately, not all tread the same path.

In describing the happenings in certain areas of interest this website establishes a public presence or display of that which requires such. It doesn’t take a super-being to know and understand what is going on in this immense Universe of ours but for those whose level of understanding is in development, items of note are thusly relayed and filed for reference here. One sees what one sees and since a captive audience requires demonstration from time to time of their freedom of expression, here it is. You are free to demonstration your acceptance of captivity.

On the other hand you are also free to demonstrate your non-acceptance of such captivity.

Littering The Streets With Corpses

Mon, 9th Jun 2008 07:37

They already are and for those of unbridled sight the obvious becomes a moot point. What is, is. It’s not a matter of belief but purely a matter of seeing. Observing the obvious becomes obnosis, the action or ability of seeing reality for what it is not for what it is served up or presented as being. It’s not a matter of pulling aside the curtain to peek behind the veil, rather it is one of being rooted in the knowledge that form and event are what they are, not what we may think them to be. Taking the personality out of the equation resolves the riddle of life and living. This then, is the form and purpose of resolving one’s being, of removing the veil of our own thoughts, ideas and concepts which we grandly bestow upon reality thus giving it appearance and plan.

Mankind seems to be forever at war with it’s own nature as can be easily seen it it’s barbaric display of contrarynotions. The ideology of our own demise is the one which we take on as our very own. Captivated and enslaved we create the plantation upon which we live and work. Our life’s purpose and plan come to naught as we enslave our minds to do the master’s biding. Creating a slave is easy when the canvas is formed out from selfish desires. In the quest for dominion, these desires allow anyone to paint upon us as they will - and there are no shortages of such artists.

Something's Shaking in Antarctica

Mon, 9th Jun 2008 06:37

(The title of this piece comes from an interesting news report.)

Antarctica, the famous and fabulous destination resort for the underprivileged remains the hot spot that it always has been. Some things never change, promises the sales poster of now well-established and known repute. Come see what’s happening at the fore-front of an ever evolving future, the brochure reveals in it’s captivating ideological pretense. Standing room only!

Some things never change and yet in this changing and evolving time-line Antarctica remains at the bottom of the world. Who would ever think to look there? Away from the spotlight of humanity darkness prevails and in this shade of twilight the sun does indeed shine and brightly so. Evolution is not riding in the back seat but one of being behind the steering wheel. Oh taxi, take me to my destination!

The Land of Ice and Snow, in it’s Darwinian approach to humanity, has been and continues to be a useful tool in one’s box of tricks. Creating appearance as reality is always established through sleight of hand, where looking is not seeing but merely believing. Belief is mandatory as knowledge is kept on the back burner, simmering away in it’s conviction that truth is unstoppable. Indeed, truth is neither stoppable nor unstoppable - it just is. But don’t take my word for it.

Predator Mode

Wed, 4th Jun 2008 05:03

There are many modes of operation throughout the various processes that are put into play during a mission. The particular one being discussed today is Predator Mode. As you already know a predator is that which preys or hunts and kills for food. This very apt description suits this mode as to what we are doing is hunting and killing the Beast. In this case, the Beast is en-theta, or enturbulated theta. Since theta, by it’s nature is pure and clean, untainted by thoughts, ideas and concepts, this enturbulation or evil comes to be man-made. It is an acquired possession used as a tool in the attainment of personal gain.

That is the keyword here in regard to enturbulation - personal gain. Dynamically speaking, the lessor the number of dynamics one enjoys being responsible for, the greater the amount of personal fixation. Enturbulation is nothing but an up close and personal testament to one’s selfish desires which of course are born to do nothing but seek release.

According to standard practice, free will is paramount in bringing about change. One cannot and must not force change upon that which is quite obviously at odds with that change. Handling resistance is part and parcel of one’s duty towards Mankind.

During the process of evolution there comes to be times where pockets of resistance show themselves as being stubborn and fixated. The personal gain of these energy units far outweighs the requirements of Mankind - or so it is believed, but this lie of great magnitude is designed to do damage and to do it well. In the normal natural progression of events, these pockets of diminishing returns comes to the fore as the floating flotsam and jetsam on the sea of life and living. They of course must be routed and handled requiring far more attention than those of greater stability.

Point, Counter-Point

Fri, 28th Mar 2008 07:47

Outside influences require that we succumb. In preparing the field for planting, the farmer creates, in mind, the end result and then undertakes effort in order to achieve that end result. The goal is already well established and all that is left are the steps necessary to bring about it’s achievement.

Upon this planet the goal has been one of plunder, created and played out by those of foreign mind and body. It can be extremely difficult to understand the foreign mind in how it works. Thought processes are inherently different and from this Tower of Babel, understanding becomes absent. We hear the words and yet they fall upon the deaf, dumb and blind.

The so-called ‘banking elite’ requires scarcity in order to play out their dirty little secret. But even these puppets have their masters. Their ancestry gives them away. You see, like-minded sheep enjoy each other’s company and it is this company which sends up the flares of identification. Despite the tricks and traps of well-oil machinery, nothing - and I mean nothing, beats the opened eye of awareness. This ‘eye’ is not the trick of the all-seeing eye of authority but one of spiritual awareness, an awareness rooted in that which lies beyond the fallacy of life and living.

It’s so strange to view this as a ‘spiritual’ matter when those who embrace the opposite, through power and force, convince all in their path that such things are ‘beyond’ the scope of mere mortal Man. In other words, where there is conviction of a pure physical existence, there lies the empty grave. As ‘money’ is a product so too is the mantle placed upon the awareness of Man. In it’s restriction, Man comes to be controlled.

To Infinity... And Beyond

Tue, 25th Mar 2008 07:40

The Eighth Dynamic or Infinity is the highest Dynamic of Life and Living in the physical universe. This dynamic is quite an interesting one in that many Scientologists take it to mean that they become or evolve into God with a capital ‘G’. Socially, these Scientologists become believers of the idea that when the Eighth Dynamic has been ascended they will become not a god but the God of the universe where all will bow before them including the Universe itself.

How grand!

In this selfish endeavor of becoming all-mighty the social Scientologist fails to understand that they have never left the First Dynamic, that egotistical, self-righteous entity known as ‘me’. This failing of great magnitude prevents the social Scientologist from seeing that their own private view of the Universe is nothing short of a slice of life and living custom made for their personal pleasure. And that is what it comes down to - personal pleasure. The pleasure of the dementia of introverted attention.

Make no mistake as there certainly is a God of this and all other Universes. This infinite Dynamic lies beyond the reach and grasp of all the other Dynamics and that, in itself, reveals the common Man’s error. Looking through the thoughts, ideas and concepts of the First Dynamic how can it ever be possible to attain the sight of a reality which is leaps and bounds beyond it? How can a social Scientologist ever leave the life raft of like-mindedness and jump head first into the vast and great unknown? This fear of losing one’s egotistical clothing keeps many firmly seated in the life raft, bobbing and weaving to and fro as the currents come to define their life existence.

Conflict ala Tribalization

Fri, 14th Mar 2008 06:35

Regionally, the Earth has been carved, divided and continues to be plundered by the various scheming drug lords. Not the so-called ‘illegal’ drugs, but a drug lord of a different flavor. Perception is the grand design of illusion and as it makes it’s merry way among the populous, confused, fear and retaliation is served up on a hearty platter of home-made delicacies. The wise man plunders with agreement while the foolish thief takes on the “smash and grab” garb of elitism. In either case, a thief remains the same - the epitome of selfish desire gone rabid in it’s efficacy. Trembling in fear the cry is heard: “LOOK, over there!”.

This planet is a wealth of information in many respects.

Rising above the wanton destruction of insanity the processes in play are quite apparent. the illusion of ill-repute is perpetuated through trickery and deceit and when these honors fail to find a home in one’s being, then there is no trickery and deceit - only an obvious reality playing itself out.

In running out suicidal tendencies, especially on a large dynamic scale, one must be in a condition of self awareness whereby these acquired characteristics or traits of competitive human-ness are non-existent. One cannot provide the means of rising above these while being at their mercy. This would be a false sense of security and be but another ruse on the scale of snake-oil deception and prosperity.

Obnosis

Thu, 21st Feb 2008 06:18

Let’s start off with a definition of obnosis:

obnosis: observation of the obvious. one looks at the isness of something, at what is actually there. (extracted from a CoS website)

 
This is all well and good but let’s break this down further by exactly defining the terms used from which the word is derived.

obvious: easily perceived or understood; clear, self-evident, or apparent

gnosis: knowledge of spiritual matters; mystical knowledge

 
‘Gnosis’ has a very interesting history and deserves a bit more clarification.
