primary code, subjective mysterium




ghosting the echoes of the pale
deep down, desert bunker
with some other evolutionary operatives

deep, dark shadow in the zeitgeist




Christoph Bangert for The New York Times


iraq, april 24, 2009 ce
violence and death as the result of deep divisions between Sunnis and Shiites
and always, the children die and suffer
the beat goes on, and on, and on .....
man’s inhumanity to man, the children in the crossfire

we learn so much, we accomplish so much
only to find, that it is one step forward and two steps back
because, we keep doing the wrong things
we keep dancing in the dark
despite the glitter and glow of what we call civilization and the status quo
and always the children
must suffer man’s inhumanity to man

monolithic studios time travel



monolithic studios

interesting, visionary ... and very visually appealing; images like this picture a future, civilization, and the experience of sentient being, that so very often, seem very appealing, at least on the surface; we cannot be sure as to what it would really be like, but it is very suggestive

I find this image to be a very unique and interesting depiction of the collective experience and time travel; whether true or not, whether possible or not, it is definately something for the imagination, and something for a potential that might, in some way, come to pass

can you smell that smell < ? >

there is a zen saying regarding what it takes to gain enlightenment: “To gain enlightenment, you must want it as much as a man whose head is held under water wants air.”

seems extreme to me; in this world, there are not very many with their heads being held under water; and if that were true, it would not leave much time to become enlightened; I agree that a human being would desperately want air, and struggle mightily; I do not think that most people, however, are that desparate for enlightenment, nor are they focused enough, nor will they mostly likely be so anytime soon

if it takes such an extreme focus, I doubt very few , in this world will be wanting to gain enlightenment; as for the few, if they feel like me, they are not very taken by so-called “enlightened” beings in this world, whose conduct and attitudes leave a lot to be desired

enlightenment is not for my ego, or anyone else’s ego to be trashed, humiliated, or otherwise lessened by the “enlightened” one; worth and dignity of all come first, including respect for the individual, even if the “enlightened” don’t like their egos or claim that the ego is in the way of enlightenment; as far as I can see, most “enlightened” human beings have an enormous amount of EGO that they carry around, and yet THAT enroumous ego of the “enlightened” is not a problem

talk about disregard, contradiction, and disrespct

still, in this world, if an individual feels so inclined, or drawn to a relationship with an “enlightened” one, they are always free to do so; I just don’t want any part of it

I would rather be unenlightened and struggling to climb the highest spiritual mountain; if I ever say that I am enlightened, if I ever say that I am trying to teach, or that I am a master -- PLEASE -- someone, enlightened or not, take a gun to my head, and put me out of my misery

wildcard for the mind studio




mindgate, imagination; special-state densities, and just a wink of stardust, subjectively magicked and alchemized; planting the seed, one moment for one mind, as it becomes; refresh rate for summer state (s) of embodiment

mindfulness, evolving references

"For the most part, the mainstream media and federal government still treat the economic collapse as something that can be fixed, so that economic growth can resume in a few years. But some commentators are beginning to realize that our meltdown represents a deeper and more permanent paradigm shift. The physical environment can no longer withstand the assaults of our industrial culture. We are experiencing a termination of capitalism as we have known it, a shutdown recently dubbed "The Great Disruption" by Thomas Friedman, in The New York Times. Until recently a leading cheerleader for Neoliberal globalization, Friedman has come to the late realization "that the whole growth model we created over the last 50 years is simply unsustainable economically and ecologically and that 2008 was when we hit the wall." The longer the general population is allowed to remain in denial about what is happening, the more dire the probable consequences, such as widespread famine, civil unrest and a disintegration of basic services.

"The truth is that we need to make a deep and rapid change in our current social systems and in the underlying models and ideals of our society. It is highly unlikely that those who have been part of the power structure, whether within government or the mainstream media, possess the necessary will, vision or inspiration to make this happen. Also, when we consider their self-serving
support for a delusional model of infinite growth on a finite planet, ignoring all evidence to the contrary, our mainstream pundits and politicos have clearly forfeited any claim to authority, and should never be trusted again."
