Blueprint for Total Control
by Nick Sandberg
"Remember,
the elite are just a few among the six billion people on this planet. The
entire source of their power is their ability to corrupt natural instincts
and direct subconscious needs into channels of expression
that further the ends of total control. This is all they have. And once
this principle is understood by more people, it will cease to be effective.
Our world will change spontaneously around us, and we will be free to love
one another in the way we always intended."
"The real source of the problem is the way we are treating our young.
Because we often prefer to give them things to demonstrate our love for them, rather
than actually express this love directly, our children grow up addicted to
material possessions. Because we teach them wrong from right by withholding
affection, they grow up needing rules and regulations, overly concerned with
control and personal power. Because they don't adequately experience affection,
they grow up craving fame and adoration. And this is principally happening
because we experienced the same conditioning when we were children ourselves."
Introduction
"Meanwhile we shall express
our darker purpose" – King Lear, Act 1:Sc1.
The purpose of this piece
is to introduce the reader to the possibility that much of what we typically
believe about our world, notably its history and its political structure,
may be some distance from the truth.
In writing it is not my intention to
reveal some vast, secret government or destiny, but simply to allow interested
readers to indulge themselves in the exercise of re-evaluating just what is
going on around us. Whether or not anyone chooses to believe the scenario
portrayed is entirely up to him or her. I make no categorical statements about
"how the world is" because our interpretation of our world and the events
of our lives is ultimately subjective.
In presenting
this alternative interpretation of our world, I have simply gone straight
into the "conspiracy theory" version of history with scant regard for quite
viable alternative explanations for much of what has happened in recent years.
Put simply, I have for the purpose of this exercise quite deliberately selected
a highly negative explanation or outcome for any series of events portrayed.
If the reader finds following this piece stressful, then I advise him or her
to always keep in mind that there are many other ways of looking at our world
and, even if the "worst-case scenario" were true, then simply recognizing
the problem could quickly bring about its reversal.
This
piece is split into four
sections. The first section consists of a basic overview of our
recent history
and possible destiny from the perspective of an increasingly popular
"conspiracy
theory." The second looks at the means by which such a plan might be
being
kept from our awareness. The third examines some basic concepts that
are used in the manipulation of large population groups. And the fourth
looks at what concerned citizens might do to transform this
process.
People from a wide variety
of backgrounds are increasingly willing to take seriously the notion that
much of what we are taught of our history is some distance from the truth.
In accordance with classic "conspiracy theory" beliefs, they believe that
the degree of randomness ascribed to much of what has happened in the last
few centuries is excessive, and that, behind the scenes, a coherent negative
force may be manipulating the events of our lives for its own ends.
It is believed that there
exists an "elite cabal" at the apex of banking and industry, operating through
government and the media, and controlling our political, social and personal
lives to ever-increasing degrees.
This elite group has been pursuing its ambitions
for centuries and is operating an agenda entirely not in our interest.
It has ruthlessly manipulated the political landscape via the strategic destabilization
and reorganization of nation states; and its ultimate objective is to take
the incredibly diverse range of human cultures once existing on Earth and
slowly mould them into a single, homogenized trading and consuming block under
their centralized control.
The principal means by which
it is believed this group is seeking to do this is via the expansion of their
own developmental prototype for world culture – America; a set of cultural
values that is systematically being expanded across the world, progressively
eliminating a wealth of ancient peoples and beliefs, and leaving in their
place a standardized, consumerist stereotype.
The ultimate goal of this
proposed elite group is to bring about a single global marketplace, controlled
by a world government, policed by a world army, financially regulated by a
world bank via a single global currency, and populated by a microchipped population
connected to a global computer, a computer that both monitors and updates
our personal location and financial status, and regulates our emotional state
via transmitted electrical signals – technology that already exists.
This ambition of thus rendering
the Earth a planet under complete control – a self-contained, interactive social structure
under total centralized control – is chiefly being pursued via activities
in two areas – commerce and culture. In "commerce," the elite group have created
the corporations, the vehicles for total control of the planet, and in "culture,"
the elite group have created both the drivers and passengers of those vehicles – us.
The historical
roots of this "elite group" stretch back into the mists of time. But the development
of the modern banking system in Middle Ages Europe provides a useful starting
point for a look at their activities. The reader should note that, in describing
the activities of this proposed elite cabal, I have had to give them a name,
that name usually being simply "the elite."
Part One – The World Outside
A Brief History of Banking
Let me issue and control
a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws – Amschel Rothschild
In the recent era, the story
of "the elite" commences with the development of the modern banking system
in Middle Ages Europe. At that time, disposable wealth was usually held in
the form of gold or silver bullion. For safety, such assets were kept in the
safe of the local goldsmith, he usually being the only individual who had
a vault on his premises. The goldsmith would issue a receipt for the deposit
and, to undertake financial transactions, the buyer would withdraw his gold
and give it to the seller, who would then deposit it again, frequently with
the same goldsmith.
As this was a time-consuming process, it became common
practice for people to simply exchange smiths' receipts when conducting financial
transactions. As time passed, the goldsmiths began to issue receipts for specific
values of gold, making buying and selling easier still. The smiths' receipts
thus became the first banknotes.
The goldsmiths, now fledgling
bankers, noticed that at any one time only a small proportion of the gold
held with them was being withdrawn. So they hit upon the idea of issuing more
of the receipt notes themselves, notes that did not refer to any actual deposited
wealth. By giving these receipts to people seeking capital, in the form of
loans, the goldsmiths could use the money deposited with them by others to
make money for themselves.
It was found that, for every unit of gold held
by the goldsmith, ten times the sum could be safely issued as notes without
anyone usually becoming any the wiser. If a goldsmith held, say, 100 pounds
of other people's gold in his vaults, he could issue banknotes to the value
of 1000 pounds. As long as no more than 10 percent of the holders of those
notes wanted their gold at any one time, no one would realize the fraud being
perpetrated.
This practice, known as "fractional reserve banking," continues
to this day and is actually the backbone of the modern banking industry. Banks
typically loan ten times their actual financial holdings, meaning 90% of the
money they lend does not now, never has, and never will exist.
Loans issued by the goldsmiths
had to be paid back to them with interest, meaning non-existent money slowly
became converted to tangible assets in the form of goods and labor. Should
the loan be defaulted upon, the banker had the right to seize the defaulter's
property. As time passed, therefore, the goldsmiths became wealthier and wealthier.
They had devised a scheme to create money out of thin air and then convert
this money into real goods, labor, or property.
A
customer deposit of $10 was thus used to create a loan of $100, which
at an interest rate of say 15% would bring the banker a nifty profit, a
practice which continues to be the standard in banking to this day.
As the industrial era began,
so the potential for furthering this scheme increased exponentially. The goldsmiths
were now fully-fledged bankers, and their ability to create money out of thin
air and then convert it into tangible assets enabled them to begin to control
whole industries to the point where the worlds of banking and industry became,
to all intents and purposes, seamless entities. Extended family banking structures,
such as
the Rothschilds, acquired so much power in this manner that the various
monarchies and fledgling governments of the time soon began to seem quite
feeble by comparison.
To increase their power and
influence still further, these elite banking families would subtly buy influence
within governments or monarchies and utilize this influence to strategically
stir up unrest between nations. When the inevitable disputes broke out, they
would then lend vast sums of money, usually to both sides, so that war could
be waged. Any armaments purchased would be those manufactured by the industrial
wing of the banking-industrial cartel, and by regulating the loan of money
and the timing of the delivery of weapons, the outcome of any conflict could
effectively be controlled.
If deemed necessary, monarchies and governments
could further be destabilized by generating poverty through regulating the
money supply, and by using agent-provocateur tactics to fuel any latent desire
for revolution. With such power it was easy to control the fledgling governments
of Europe and ensure that only those politicians who would do the will of
the banking families came to power.
As the twentieth
century dawned, the banking families hit upon a new means to consolidate and
increase their gains. They discovered that by periodically restricting the
money supply, crashes within the emergent stock exchanges of the world could
easily be engineered. The most notable example of this was the famous Wall
Street Crash of 1929. What the history books usually fail to record is that,
in a crash, wealth is not actually destroyed, but merely transferred. The
"Crash of '29" allowed the most powerful of the banking and industrial families
to absorb the weaker elements, generating even greater levels of centralized
control.
As the technological revolution
progressed, so the buying up of TV stations and newspapers allowed the creation
and
control of the mass media. This served to ensure that only a portrayal
of events that suited the interests of the elite banking families would get
to public attention – invariably one that all but denied their very existence.
A Closer Look at Government
The vision we're usually given
of how political power is manifest in our society typically runs something
like this: government at the top, banking, industry, media and military, beneath,
and the people beneath this. However, an independent examination of the development
of modern political power is more likely to reveal the following arrangement:
extended family banking groups at the top, government beneath, facilitating
the wishes of this hierarchy, and the media beneath portraying the work of
the government to the people as "democracy in action."
It can thus be seen that,
in truth, most governments are little more than front organizations for the
elite banking cartels. They interface with the public via the media, acting
to facilitate social change in a manner that maintains relative social stability,
while ensuring that our culture stays in line with any course the elite wish
it to pursue. Western governments do not usually allow the public to actually
pick who becomes their political representative, merely to choose between
individuals selected by the party hierarchy. Neither do the public get to
pick the policies the representative will pursue, this is also under the control
of the party. To say that this system is open to abuse is a considerable understatement.
America
The creation of the United
States of America represents the pinnacle of the elite's ambitions for world
domination. America is, in essence, a prototype for world consumer culture.
By encouraging a broad base of racial groups to settle and develop under their
constant control, the banking families have been able to slowly direct the
natural evolution of a form of social order that humans from any background
can adapt to, without a significant number of them becoming sufficiently dissociated
to actually take up arms and overthrow the system.
This is aided by a highly
repressive justice system and backed by the
largest prison population on the
planet. Now that the technological revolution has facilitated the expression
of American cultural values across the world, America is, in effect, expanding
until the 50 states actually encompass the whole globe in all but name. Our
planet is slowly becoming America.
America is the ultimate control
fantasy – consensual incarceration – whole groups of people slowly driven
to believe that there exists no way of securely living together other than
by the giving up of personal freedom bit by bit.
World War II
The Second World War, a conflict
which cost the lives of tens of millions of people, was entirely manipulated
into being by the elite banking and industrial cartels.
Hitler rose to power in a
country so economically crippled by the reparations imposed after the previous
war that going into another should have been inconceivable. But the banking
elite agreed to the
loan of billions of dollars, and furthermore set up a
vast industrial complex within Germany, (much of it the Standard Oil subsidiary,
I.G. Farben), to manufacture the tanks, planes, arms and munitions necessary
to wage another European war.
Oil pipelines and factories were built, lines
of credit extended and the war machine spent nearly a whole decade churning
out weaponry while the rest of the country remained in abject poverty thus
fueling the desire for war. The whole thing was a set up from start to finish,
as even a cursory independent examination will confirm. The millions of deaths
that resulted were looked upon by the banking families as being simply a sacrifice
necessary to achieve greater levels of European homogeny and control.
The Third World
Conquered states ... can
be held by the conqueror in three different ways. The first is to ruin them,
the second for the conqueror to go and reside there in person and the third
is to allow them to continue to live under their own laws, subject to a regular
tribute, and to create in them a government of the few who will keep the country
friendly to the conqueror. – Niccolo Machiavelli in
The Prince
I will now look at the banking
families' ambitions in the Southern Hemisphere, or so-called "Third World."
All across Africa, Southeast Asia and Latin America, the elite banking families
have again pursued unrelentingly the ambition of destabilizing a multitude
of traditional cultures and creating in their place a series of homogenized
trading blocks. In recent years this task has been undertaken chiefly by the
World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). But the story commences
many years before.
Colonization by the European
empire builders from the sixteenth century onwards and the later granting
of "independence" to conquered territories led slowly to the forging of individual
nation states with monarchies and governments. To ensure that these institutions
remained subservient to the elite, agent provocateurs and dubious Western
government agencies worked behind the scenes to displace any leaders who showed
democratic tendencies and replace them with elite puppets from local communities
and their extended families.
To maintain these hated and corrupt regimes in
power, the Western banking institutions lent vast sums of money to these "governments"
and monarchies to enable them to form armies, frequently with foreign troops,
and thus prevent the people of the country from wresting power. Loans were
further granted for the purchase of weapons, to wage various regional conflicts
stirred up by elite agent provocateurs, and to build palatial homes in which
the puppet monarchs and their officials might reside.
In the early 1970s, the elite-manipulated
Yom Kippur war resulted in a massive rise in oil prices. The whole world found
itself paying vastly increased rates for petroleum, and the massive profits
made by the oil-producing nations were invested back with the elite-controlled
Western banks. Relying on the ever-popular tactic of loaning at least ten
times their reserves, the banks now had insane sums of money to lend.
With
the "Third World" countries compelled to pay vastly increased sums for their
oil, as well as service the debts already incurred by their puppet leaders,
further massive loans were advanced to them in a banking strategy that came
to be known as "petrodollar recycling." The Western banks would send
youthful reps across the world offering gigantic loans to anyone in power who wanted
them. These loans were, of course, created out of thin air and tied to the
recipient buying weapons, machinery or goods from the industrial or military
clients of the banking cartel offering the money.
In the 1980s, the bubbles
began to burst, with the Mexican debt crisis becoming the first of many "days
of reckoning." The World Bank and the IMF, elite-manufactured organizations
created in the 1940s to "stimulate the conditions of world trade," stepped
in. They offered "adjustments" – strategies for repayment that involved the
countries concerned adopting economic "austerity" programmes and commencing
industrial production of Western goods and consumer products.
To commence industrial production,
the countries had to take out further loans and buy plant from – the industrial
clients of the banking cartels. To generate sufficient power for the new industries,
they had to hire companies to build hydroelectric power plants or nuclear
reactors – companies that were again the heavy industry clients of the banking
cartels.
The IMF debt-rescheduling
practices enforced on the countries experiencing major problems paying back
their loans (problems entirely generated by the elite via their control of
world interest rates and oil prices) compelled the "Third World" nations,
one after another, to commence manufacturing goods, not for themselves but
for sale on the world markets. Here, in the emergent global marketplace, they
had to compete with each other in a highly competitive market over which they
had no control. The only factor in the IMF equation that the Southern Hemisphere
countries could control was the cost of labor. The result was cheaper goods
for Western consumers and greater poverty for workers in the "Third World."
All across the Southern Hemisphere,
small farmers were driven away from planting crops for themselves and compelled
to plant crops for export, hoping they'd get paid enough to survive. In the
1980s, runaway inflation stimulated by Reaganomics in America (the arrangement
of vast loans for US government spending on military and space projects that
sent world interest rates skyrocketing) began to force many local people out
of the countryside altogether. They were driven into the newly created cities
where they vied with each other for work in the newly built factories.
This
led to the destruction of traditional ways of life for millions upon millions.
Emergent drug cartels, invariably under the direction of government agencies
such as the CIA, began to flood the cities and industrial areas with cheap
drugs, hooking those with jobs deeper into a life of wage slavery, and those
without into lifelong street-level delinquency. In addition, grain crops,
previously used for bread, were diverted into producing of alcohol for the
relocated populations.
Problems unheard of a generation before – alcoholism,
drug addiction, crime, unemployment, poverty and malnutrition – became epidemic
in proportion all across Africa, Latin America and Southeast Asia. In Brazil,
one of the biggest food exporters in the world, approaching half a million
children die annually from malnutrition or hunger-related diseases.
In
the early 1990s, the specter
of capitalist greed proved increasingly disturbing for the people
buying the
goods created in this manner. So the elite came up with
"green-washing" – the media-driven means by which images of change
within the Southern Hemisphere
are bombarded upon the Western viewer, convincing them that "the
system" is
adapting to moral pressure from Western citizens. News broadcasts
accepted
that previous practices had been exploitative but that, post Live
Aid and
similar, things were changing and any residual problems were
entirely the
fault of the poorer nations themselves or the weather.
The previous "evil
capitalists," the Reagans and Thatchers, were removed from power and replaced
by consumer-friendly mouthpieces of the elite – the Clintons and the Blairs.
On UK TV at the time of this writing (originally Spring 2000), one BBC programme
features former Spice Girl, Geri Halliwell, entering the world's shanty towns
and meeting crowds of poor but happy-looking children jumping up and down,
thus generally promoting the image of gradual change and improvement.
What
the programme neglected to reveal is that, in many of the "Third World's"
shantytowns, children now have less than a 50% chance of making it to their
first birthday. Infant mortality rates are rising steadily throughout the
Southern Hemisphere, despite the efforts of the United Nations (UN) and World
Health Organization (WHO) to massage the figures. For those lucky enough to
reach the grand old age of five, the only prospect to look forward to is a
life of begging, street crime or child prostitution.
The population of the
world is currently estimated at six billion. Three billion of these are existing
in poverty, one third of them at near-starvation level. For the majority of
the world's citizens, life is now demonstrably worse than at any time in recorded
history.
The Future – Chips with Everything?
In the passages above, I've
looked at a few aspects of our recent history with the intention of demonstrating
that there may be a pattern of organization in the background that could give
many people grounds for concern. At this point, I would now like to address
the question: "If there really was a coherent body organizing all of this,
what would their motivation be, and where might all this be leading?"
The primary motivation behind
all elite activities is the desire to acquire control. It is the base desire
to control everything, to take a vast and dynamic planet full of people and
drive them into a single cultural structure under their central control. It
is the fulfillment of this desire that truly motivates the elite. In their
attempt to bring about this highly negative state of affairs, the elite need
to be active on two fronts simultaneously – the world outside and the world
inside, the planet and the mind.
In the "world outside," the
objective the banking families are working towards is globalization – the
creation of three vast interlocked markets centered on America, Europe and
Asia, followed by their full integration into a single trading block. A global
marketplace peopled with consumer-workers and serviced at the lower end via
"Third World" debt.
In the "world inside," the plan is to get all humanity microchipped.
For, despite a multiplicity of control tactics currently being imposed
upon us – mortgages, credit cards, street surveillance systems and
antidepressants among them – people still have a basic level of personal
freedom. Although it's getting harder to do so, we can still walk out
of consumerism and embark on a new life.
But
if we are chipped this won't happen. This is because scientists'
knowledge of neuroscience is now such that, by having a tiny microchip
implanted inside our body, we can be regulated at an emotional level. By
gaining control over our body's receptor-ligand network, our emotional
state can be manipulated by electrical signals, either as a part of a
chip's program or via remote signaling, thus offering the possibility of
the creation of a perfect consumer workforce – a people whose only
thoughts are those of working, eating, procreating and sleeping.
However, despite the progress
our planet has made along the road of becoming a world consumerist superstate,
most people are still highly resistant to the idea of having a chip put under
their skin. There is therefore a progressive strategy that will be gradually
implemented to lead us, step by step, into permitting this nightmare future
to come about.
It will unfold in three concurrent
stages. Firstly, cash will be gradually eliminated. Secondly, all personal
and financial data will be placed on individual "smartcards." And, thirdly
smartcards will be themselves gradually eliminated to be replaced by microchip
implants. By first removing cash, then introducing problems into electronic
money systems while simultaneously promoting microchip implants as a safe
and acceptable alternative, the elite will lead us slowly into accepting personal
implant technology. I will look more closely at how these three stages will
likely unfold.
For the past twenty years
we have been slowly led towards giving up cash in favor of electronic money,
and in the last ten, the heat has been turned up. The increased promotion
of credit cards, phone banking, mail order and Internet shopping have all
helped to bring about a society where the need for cash transactions is greatly
reduced. Yet many people still like carrying cash, meaning more will have
to be done if it is to be eliminated completely.
One strategy that will be
employed will be the gradual implementation of "smart citizenship" schemes
across ever-widening sectors of our society. "Smart citizenship" is one of
a variety of euphemisms now emerging for "cashless society" and, once one
city has been signed up, the benefits can be extensively promoted by the media
to encourage others to follow suit. In April 2000 it was announced that the
UK city of Southampton and the Swedish city of Gothenberg will host smart
citizenship schemes commencing 2002, to be technically facilitated by the
French consortium, Schlumberger.
Another strategy that might
be utilized is the introduction of new, multinational currencies not available
as cash. The euro, the currency for the European Union, may well be such a
thing.
Another possibility is that
cash will be removed on the pretext of eliminating the illicit drug trade.
Many cities now have around 1% of their population using heroin daily. This,
along with crack cocaine addiction, is proving a near intolerable social burden
for many people who live in the areas affected. If cash were eliminated, anonymous
illicit transactions for small sums would not be possible.
With electronic
money, the identities of the buyer and seller of any article are recorded
on computer and, should a transaction be for an illicit substance, it could
be traced. Although illicit drugs come into our countries in vast shipments,
each load is ultimately sold in small amounts at or near street level. Remove
cash and the illicit drug trade would be finished.
Whatever tactics are eventually
employed, while cash is being eliminated and the creation of a global society
pursued, an assortment of "softening-up" strategies are likely to be deployed
by the media.
There will be a steady trickle of stories in the papers and on TV relating the benefits of microchipping. Scientists will make statements
extolling the wonders of implant technology for treating and monitoring illnesses
and futuristic articles will relate how, in a few years time, we won't have
to carry wallets around. Such stories will invariably make it seem that microchipping
and globalization are not only desirable but also inevitable – that they have
already "been decided."
Once cash has finally been
eliminated from a region, what will next happen is that problems will begin
to mysteriously occur within the electronic money system. People will occasionally
find their money disappearing into thin air. Computer errors, viruses and
fraud, previously virtually unheard of, will increasingly begin to manifest.
Having your personal records placed on a microchip implant will become renowned
as the only safe way to keep personal data safe from interference, likely
because encryption technology available on the personal chip won't be available
on the smartcard.
Whole groups of people within
society will likely have already been chipped by this time. Criminals, the
mentally ill, and military personnel are three likely targets. The media will
constantly portray chipping as the socially positive thing to do.
Small children will go missing in high profile cases on the daily news, then be found, "because
they were chipped."
Young people's TV will be especially targeted. Getting
chipped will be seen as a cool thing to do, with a vast array of different
chip features available to order. Getting chipped will be seen as synonymous
with "getting ahead" and attracting members of the opposite sex. The media
will spare no effort ensuring that the negative aspects of getting chipped,
such as feeling like a robot, are driven from people's minds.
To still further intensify
the drive to get the public chipped, large corporations will begin to make
it a requirement for employment, likely under the guise of it being their
contribution to creating a positive society. By this time the multinational
corporations of today, big as they already are, will have been transformed
into transnational giants, astride the world like statues of Colossus, controlling
vast sectors of the earth's resources and meeting them out according to their
masters' schedule, and with a vast and continuous PR job making it all appear
completely consensual. Virtually everything purchased will be from a multinational
corporation, and nearly all employment opportunities will involve working
for one.
With cash gone and no way
of bringing it back, and the credit card, ID card, and even smartcard systems
increasingly falling into disrepair, life will begin to seem pretty bleak
for those persons not chipped. Pretty soon, not being chipped will effectively
mean you are not capable of working for a regular wage in any but the most
menial job.
There will initially still be a large black market operating at
varying degrees outside the law and trading in a wide variety of licit and
illicit substances. But, as chipping proceeds all across Western society,
and becomes seen as being as natural as paying tax, so the State will increasingly
make moves to attack illicit activity.
With the moral backing of the microchipped
population, engineered by the media, those persons not chipped will increasingly
be marginalized in the same way the homeless are now – forced to the edges
of society and left to fend for themselves in an environment of poverty, drug
addiction, sexual exploitation and crime.
Once chipping is finally
accepted as being an integral part of life in the twenty-first century, the
next stage will be implemented – the promotion of chips that can regulate
aspects of our body's function.
Self-regulation of our body
and mind will be seen as a new and convenient means of treating any number
of complaints ranging from depression to minor flesh wounds. No need to take
tablets or call up the doctor, just program your chip to do it for you. Scientists
are now sufficiently knowledgeable of our body's electrical system and ligand-receptor
networks that they can superficially alter many of our natural emotional functions.
By changing the way our body metabolizes serotonin, for example, the symptoms
of depression can be relieved.
With chips available capable
of altering a whole range of neurochemical functions, we will increasingly
have the ability to emotionally regulate ourselves. Given that it is now well
recognized that negative emotions are mere symptoms of deeper needs not being
met, all sorts of health problems could easily go undiagnosed.
But, apart
from health concerns, giving people the means to easily emotionally self-regulate
could lead to the "Prozac generation" becoming global. People will become
obsessed with feeling good about themselves all the time, ignoring anything
which threatens to interfere with that feeling. Wars, starvation, political
upheavals and global tyranny will all become just "other people's problems."
With implant technology accepted as being part of life in the twenty-first
century, who is going to notice if one day the chips seem to start regulating
themselves. Who is going to notice if they no longer require us to actually
program them, but seem to do it without our help, no longer allowing us access
to our true feelings even if we wanted them?
This nightmare scenario seems
like something out of science fiction but, in fact, much of the technology
has already been developed. The implantable microchip with global tracking
system and biomonitoring system, Digital Angel, is scheduled to go into production
in late 2000, [
now in full production]. It is powered by human muscle movement and will
be offered to people concerned that they or their loved ones may go missing
and to doctors wanting to monitor their patients.
Patents for implantable
chips that release pharmaceuticals into the bloodstream have already been
issued and companies, such as ChipRx, have been set up to develop them for
the market. The technology is here, the only question is: how much persuading
will be necessary to make us accept it? One thing is certain – everything
will be done bit by bit. Step by step, we will be led into a place where no
one, if they thought about it, would ever willingly go – and without means
of escape.
Part Two – The World Inside
The psychological rule
says that when an individual remains unaware of the divisions within, the
world he experiences must perforce act out the conflict and be torn into opposing
halves – Carl Jung
Hiding the Plot
If one imagines for a moment
that the world is being run by an elite cabal at the apex of banking and industry,
one might legitimately inquire as to how such a group might have prevented
us from discovering their true level of power. We are intelligent and inquisitive
creatures by nature, craving input and stimulation, and it would appear impossible
that a truth of this magnitude could be hidden from us for such a length of
time.
As I hope to demonstrate,
it is actually quite straightforward. The "conditioning" process that most
of us undergo in the course of a normal Western childhood not only causes
us to divert from our natural behavior but also permanently alters the way
most of us evaluate information. In the second section of this piece I shall
be looking at how a typical Western childhood can subconsciously render us:
addicted to material pleasures and the quest for personal power, resistant
to information which contradicts what we believe we already know, and impervious
to natural self-healing – and all without most of us becoming any the wiser.
Conditioning
Conditioning is the means
by which our reaction to traumatic events can be put to use to cause us to
permanently alter our natural behavior. Parents usually condition their children
by giving them affection when their behavior is deemed "good" and withholding
affection when it is deemed "bad." They do this because the overwhelming majority
of cultural influences they are exposed to tell them it must be done or we
will not grow up to be "civilized" human beings.
The action of conditioning,
when it first occurs, will cause the mind to repress – to block awareness
of what it was that happened. This will reoccur the first few times the action
of conditioning, for instance, slapping, occurs. Then the mind will learn.
It will learn that, in order to avoid being slapped in future, it must undertake
the change in behavior required. However, in order for conditioning to take
place, the memory and pain associated with the original act of conditioning
must remain repressed within, blocked from our awareness.
The intention of the mind,
in blocking our awareness of events and repressing any associated emotions,
is to protect us from emotional damage in our formative years. Each time something
happens around us that in any way reminds our subconscious mind of a repressed
memory, we receive a little burst of anxiety as repressed emotions begin to
be processed. As repressed memories build up, whole areas of natural thinking
and behavior thus begin to become painful to us.
The mind deals with this
by learning subconsciously to avoid situations that remind it of repressed
memories; and it is this "need to avoid" that allows the conditioned mind
to be so easily controlled. By creating a culture in which repressed pain
is not released from the system but, instead, can merely be avoided through
social conformity, Western populations become emotionally dependent on their
culture to feel secure. They can thus easily be directed to both do work and follow
a lifestyle that slowly draws the planet under centralized control.
The Persona
One means by which nearly
all Westerners learn to avoid contact with repressed emotions is through the
development of a "persona." The persona is essentially a shield, a face that
one can present to the world, behind which one can interact with society free
from the risk of experiencing repressed pain. A consequence of developing
this shield is that we, as children, start to learn to mask our true needs
behind symbolic needs.
We naturally crave deep love and affection but many
learn not to seek it directly for fear of re-experiencing the pain that results
when it is denied. Instead, many of us grow up learning to crave things that
merely symbolize what we truly want, things like material possessions, personal
power, sensual pleasures, and fame.
Material possessions symbolize
love because we learn that our parents show us love by giving us things. Personal
power symbolizes love because it represents freedom of expression, the withholding
of which was used to condition us. Sensual pleasures symbolize love because
we associate intimacy with love. Fame symbolizes love because we associate
adoration with love. All these cravings are for things that symbolically represent
what we truly need but are not the actual need itself.
Because the true needs
are not being met, the pleasure experienced proves only temporary and the
craving for more symbols of love quickly returns. This is the true root of
the universal problem of greed. The child chasing mere symbols of its true
wants becomes the adult doing the same. We thus grow up driven to seek out
things that merely symbolize what we actually want, and so never experience
lasting satisfaction. When we don't comprehend the root of our behavior,
we simply assume that we don't have enough and strive for more.
School
Our school years are a time
when we should be opening up emotionally, learning about the world and understanding
what it means to be alive. Instead, most people's experience of school is
that of being subjected to a rigorous indoctrination process while immersed
in an emotionally repressive environment. An atmosphere of inhibition and
abuse pervades, and fear of ridicule from our peer group causes us to spend
most of our time hiding our true feelings and directing our energy into maintaining
face.
Our shield, our persona, is
maintained by self-esteem. Experiencing a feeling of security within the peer
group is vital if the persona is to be held in place. To experience embarrassment
in front of one's peers will instantly expose the individual to deeply painful
repressed emotions, and thus is something to be avoided at all costs.
One
result of this is a corruption of our innate need to understand the nature
of our world. For, from now on, whether or not we accept what we learn as
being true will depend not only on whether it makes sense, but also on whether
we feel that believing it might pose a threat to our place within the peer
group.
We thus become dependent on our beliefs not only to help us understand
the world but also to help maintain our persona. It is natural therefore that
we soon develop a deep need to agree with the taught versions of subjects
such as history and science. For not to do so would invite ridicule, and thus
lead to a re-experiencing of deeply negative repressed feelings.
The Persona and Social Conformity
Our developing of this "need
to agree" explains why the overwhelming majority of us appear so happy to
go along with convention and popular belief, and are therefore resistant to
"conspiracy theories." In fact, even when reading a controversial article
in a journal, something that offers little chance of us actually being hurt,
the subconscious mind remains constantly on the lookout for anything that
could potentially affect our self-image, constantly aware of our need to maintain
face. Should it encounter something threatening, it will quickly try to dump
the information and move on to something else, not bothering to engage the
rational mind and evaluate the idea further.
We can see how dangerous this
is when we look at how little most people challenge the accepted version of
history. Of World War II, for example, we are typically taught that Hitler
was an evil dictator who rose to power in Germany and sought to take over
the world. This provoked a reaction from the Allies, which, while causing
a massive and regrettable loss of life, was unfortunately necessary if the
world was to be saved from a global fascist regime.
But how many of us ask
how it was that Hitler, the leader of a country so economically crippled that
a wheelbarrow full of banknotes was needed to purchase a mere loaf of bread,
could afford the immense cost of all-out European war? How was it that the
German army could secure the vast and continuing supply of oil and armaments
necessary to undertake war on so many fronts simultaneously? The answer, of
course, is that it was loaned the money necessary by the banking and industrial
cartels of the West.
Yet most people reading this
will not bother to enquire further into this story. Instead they will rapidly
discount the whole idea on the first pretext that enters their mind. This
is because, working at a subconscious level, our mind has already worked out
that, if we believe that World War II was entirely manipulated into being
by elite groups, then we are going to have to believe that other events in
our history may have been similarly manipulated, and if we do this, it knows
that we are going to have to adopt a set of beliefs that is different from
that of our peers, thus potentially exposing us to ridicule.
The need to hold
down pain is greater than the need to know the truth and so defensive functions
deny us the ability to rationally assess controversial information. Now let's
look more deeply at this process.
Emotional Hijacking
In the 1990s, author Daniel
Goleman memorably coined the term "emotional hijacking" to describe the process
by which one part of our mind, operating below the level of our conscious
awareness, can "hijack" our information-processing facilities and cause us
to act irrationally, invariably in situations that it believes could be threatening
to us.
Emotional hijacking refers
to the ability of lower parts of the mind – our instincts, drives and defence
mechanisms – to dictate the activity of the higher parts – our facilities
for analysis, deduction and creativity. While we have developed a brain with
quite phenomenal processing power, it is still subservient to our more primitive
needs, and if what the higher brain is processing begins to concern our defence
functions, then subconscious processes cut in and hijack intellectual activity,
directing the mind to simply move away from the lines of thought that are
inducing anxiety.
Another important route for
emotional hijacking is the shift into analytical thinking. If, while processing
information, the lower brain begins to become concerned about deductions being
made, it can direct the higher mind to seek alternative ways to account for
what is presented. This is of course a natural part of the analysis process,
but here it is being done, not to further understanding, but to block the
formation of anxiety-inducing deductions.
The difference is that, when analysis
is done to block deductive reasoning, a person will develop an emotional need
to believe his or her interpretation is correct. He or she will become emotionally,
rather than intellectually, biased towards one viewpoint. Now, let's look
at the third and most damaging way our natural development of a persona comes
to affect our life.
Learning to Deny Our Pain
In addition
to the way the persona can render us reliant on consumer culture, and cause
us to believe only the mainstream interpretation of history, so it also prevents
from us realizing what has happened to us. For, when we operate from behind
a persona, we must resist any attack on our self-esteem. This means we must
oppose any suggestion that we have been in any way negatively affected by
the experiences of our childhood.
We saw earlier that, in order to release
ourselves from the negative effects of repressed material, we must become
consciously aware of its existence, express the pain, and so commence the
grieving process. Yet, while we are constantly engaged in maintaining face,
we cannot begin to come to terms with what has happened to us and thus begin
to heal ourselves. In emotional terms, life becomes a simple feedback loop.
Because we have been conditioned, we cannot face the notion that conditioning
has affected us. And because we cannot face the notion that conditioning has
affected us, we cannot heal ourselves of its effects. And we thus go on to
condition others. The conditioning of children is central to all elite activities
in Europe and the US, and is always done on the pretext of rendering them
"civilized." Once one generation of children has grown up conditioned, you
have the raw material that can be directed to go out and enslave other cultures
on your behalf.
Part
Three – Achieving Total Control
In this section
I will look more closely at how the elite is attempting to achieve total control,
firstly in terms of principles and symbolism, and then via actual examples.
Knowledge
is power. Exploiting people is very simple when you have a little more knowledge
than they do. And while our knowledge of many things these days is impressive,
there are areas where we are deeply lacking. It is because we do not understand
how important emotions are and how subconscious needs will always try and
get themselves met that we become so controlled by repressed emotions. And
it is because the majority do not know what the minority know that so many
end up being controlled by so few.
Many of the principles used by the elite
are already familiar to us, albeit in a different form. But it is the ones
that we are not aware of that are being used so effectively to control us.
Pyramids
The pyramid
represents a form of political or social structure that allows a small group
of individuals to control a much larger group. If you imagine a pyramid split
up into ascending levels, you have the basic model. At each level up, there
are fewer people but greater power.
The hierarchical pyramid power structure is found all
over Western culture. Corporations and government bodies classically use this
structure to manage their activities. At each level on the promotional ladder,
there is greater power. And when one gets to the top, the entire structure
can be controlled on one's own. When setting up these hierarchical power structures,
the elite will invariably design an organization to initially have a benign
social function. Once it has power, its role can then be progressively changed
such that it begins to forward a hidden agenda when the time is right.
Imbalance and Disconnection
In addition
to utilizing the forces represented by the pyramid, the elite also work extensively
with the power of "imbalance." This is done by vastly overemphasizing one
side of a structure that is naturally resolved into two seemingly opposed
parts – the male over the female, conservatism over liberalism, reductionism
over holism, and so on.
This has the effect of generating deep imbalances
within the human psyche, and our innate desire to return to a state of wholeness
can be put to use to further negative ends. In order that this principle is
effective, we need to be led into believing that the state of imbalance is
natural. This is done via yet another well-known principle – the principle
of disconnection.
From the middle ages onwards,
Westerners have sold us the lie that their culture derives almost entirely
from Ancient Greece, when in truth it is intimately connected with the ancient
cultures of the Middle East, India and the Orient. By creating this disconnection
from our true past, the elite can impose their vision of culture upon us,
including our belief that overtly one-sided structures are our cultural norm.
And because we consciously believe that the culture that surrounds us is
natural when it is in fact only half the story, the subconscious mind is driven
to seek out a state of wholeness that it feels must exist somewhere. People
experience a constant feeling that "something is missing," and this feeling
can be put to use in the ongoing quest for total control of the planet, as we shall see
at the end of this chapter.
In
addition, by creating the
illusion that Western culture springs from just one source, the
elite are
also free to utilize other people's knowledge to forward their own
aims without
the masses realizing its true significance. Esoteric principles
derived from ancient Eastern and Middle Eastern cultures, and
are being used to control us while we actually ridicule their very
existence
and our scientists expend much energy trying to prove they are not
so! Which
brings us to science.
Science
Science is a field in which
the elite have been particularly active. In order to keep hidden knowledge
to themselves, and thus be free to exploit it to the maximum, the elite had
to find a means to keep others away from its study. This was done by establishing
a school of thought that would draw the emergent learned classes of Renaissance
Europe away from ancient esoteric principles and instead lead them into developing
the technologies the elite could use to exploit natural forces for their own
ends. This school of thought would become known simply as "science."
Science is essentially a philosophy
of measurement based around the principles of empiricism, or experimentation,
and objectivity, the reproducibility of this experimentation. Science, as
we know it today, became established with the elite's creation of the Royal
Society in 1640s London.
In helping to make popular this new and objective
"science," the elite achieved two vital aims. Firstly, the significance of
esoteric knowledge became progressively hidden from view and thus slowly disregarded
by the masses. Secondly, the forces of the material world could progressively
be harnessed by the elite as more and more learned men and women were drawn
into pursuing this study.
To
reinforce this new science's
ability to merely manipulate natural forces, the principle of
reductionism
was also vastly emphasized over its counterpart, contextualism, or
holism. Reductionism is a scientific philosophy which espouses that
something can
be understood by examination of its constituent parts as opposed to
its function.
What the founders of the Royal
Society knew, that our scientists today do not, was that the process of formulating
scientific laws based upon objective experimentation, the basis of science,
would not easily reveal true insights into the nature of our existence. Implicit
to the esoteric model is the need for systematic and sustained subjective
analysis in addition to objective evaluation. Science's emphasis on the objective
over the subjective therefore actually renders it largely impotent as
a tool by which we can truly learn about matters of deeper significance in our world.
The media unrelentingly promote
science as some form of search for "the truth," and frequently debase ideas
on the grounds that they are "unproven." Yet, as philosophers of science from
Plato to A.N. Whitehead have pointed out, science often serves much less as a search for
the truth than as a means of indoctrinating others into a rigid interpretation of our
world narrowly defined by scientists.
"Proof" is actually a quite meaningless concept
in many ways for, conceptually, only certain types of ideas can be empirically
proven, and then only within one, very limited mental framework. Sadly, very
few scientists are aware of this, and so the majority go on believing that
the attributes of empiricism and objectivity confer some special status to
their studies. The reality is that science is merely one branch of philosophy,
and whether people believe it or not depends not on some innate validity it
might possess but simply on what the majority have been told is "the truth."
What the elite understood was that what actually mattered was whether people believed science or not. The pursuit of a science based on empiricism, objectivity, and reductionism
could not easily lead anyone to freedom, and a person brought up to believe
in the absolute validity of science would develop a mindset that blocked recognition
of this.
Yet, even taking into account
the conceptual problems, science could still lead to much technology that
would free many sectors of society. Effective medications that actually address
the cause of illnesses, as opposed to merely temporarily relieving symptoms,
and free energy applications are two good examples.
And so the elite continue
to exert immense power over how modern science develops via a variety of "establishment"
bodies in government, education and the private sector. By ensuring that funding
for research goes only goes where they want it, the elite thus ensure that
science uncovers only that which is beneficial to their deeper purpose. Now
let's look at how scientific beliefs are put to work by the elite.
Thinking and Control
The power of thought is well
respected among the controlling elite. Indeed, our thoughts, especially those about
ourselves in relation to others, are recognized as being a vital source of
energy that can be put to work. Encouraging selfishness has always made sense
to the elite. In the US, a specific social structure has been created wherein
the needs of the individual are seen as outweighing the needs of the group
to a degree that is unparalleled in modern history. The corrupted driving
instinct that naturally results from exposure to this system benefits the
elite in two ways.
Firstly, the desire to "get
ahead" that an American upbringing is specifically intended to induce can
be put to work at a corporate level, ensuring that the plan for world takeover
proceeds at maximum pace. And secondly, the elite believe that selfish thinking
feeds back to them at a psychic level and reinforces their hold on the planet.
This latter belief arises because most of the controlling elite believe that fear, hatred, envy
and anger are all emotions that can be used to maintain a state of control
over people. And this is reflected in many of the social and political structures
that have developed in the West. Race relations, religion, local government
and service industry are all seen as fields where tension and fear can be
generated and put to work to help maintain control.
However,
it is also well recognized that there are limits that must be adhered to when
negative emotions are being used to maintain control. For esoteric thought
holds that all emotions ultimately derive from love, and so if anyone is driven
too deeply into negativity they will discover salvation. They
recognize that
the ideal state in which to keep us is that of blame—believing
everything is our neighbor's fault, or shame—that everything is our own
fault.
Western Culture
Here we shall
look at how some of the principles mentioned above have actually been put
into action.
Patriarchy – the level
to which men dominate our culture accounts for many of the problems our world
now faces. Women, being more intuitive than men, are natural healers, and,
given the chance, could quite likely resolve many of the world's problems.
Yet the overwhelming majority do not get the opportunity to direct their natural
healing ability to where it is needed. Instead they find themselves constantly
drawn to try and heal individuals resistant to their efforts.
Many women who
have been subjected to the Western childhood, with its distant and frequently
unloving father figures, will find themselves constantly being subconsciously
drawn into relationships with certain types of men; men who represent the
father who didn't love them in the way their instincts told them he should.
By creating a self-perpetuating patriarchy, the elite have successfully ensured
that the immense gifts women carry are largely diverted away from where
they could do the most good and into fruitless and largely unrewarding sidelines.
Cell structure – cell
structure is what we have when we isolate elements of a process; lots of little
cells of activity side by side, each disconnected from the next. Cell structure
is found all over Western society – in our jobs, our habits, even in our minds.
If Western consumers could see what goes on in the less developed countries of the world simply
to bring cheap goods to their tables they would be horrified. But because
the process is split up into cells, it is easy to disconnect from the tragedy
that is occurring behind the scenes.
Throughout the less technologically advanced world, relocated
populations are compelled to spend long hours churning out clothing in subhuman
conditions. The people who ship the clothing to the West don't see this because
they just work in shipping; the people who sell the clothing don't see this
because they just work in sales; the people who market the clothing don't
see this because they just work in marketing; and the people who buy the clothing
don't see this because they just see the result of all the marketing. Because
the system is split up into cells, we never realize the level of sheer human
misery that goes into producing the inexpensive, abundant goods that we take
for granted.
Compartmentalization – essentially, cell structure for the mind. Many people will be aware of the
degree to which the media presentation of issues has been standardized over
the last decade or so. Slowly the media are being drawn to present information,
be it an ad for soap powder or a news broadcast, in pretty much the same format
all across the world.
This standardization of presentation, combined with
the ever-increasing amount of information that we are all now required to
process, has the effect of causing our minds to compartmentalize – to split
into cells. In order to keep up with all the things that are happening around
us, we have to quickly assess incoming information and stick it away in its
own little compartment in our minds.
Read any newspaper article these days,
or watch any news broadcast, and you will find in the opening of the piece
information which helps us prepare emotionally and intellectually for what's
coming, and tells the mind which compartment to store it in. Pretty soon there
will be so much information around that we will cease looking at content at
all and merely respond to these little intro "bytes."
All of the
concepts found above are well-known to those schooled in ancient esoteric
thought as means by which natural forces can be harnessed and used for one's
own ends. And by making sure that the masses remain blissfully convinced that
esoteric knowledge is all just superstitious nonsense, the elite ensure that
power remains theirs.
Having detailed some of the
ways that ancient esoteric principals have been put to work at a symbolic
and actual level in our world, I now return to modern psychology and
look at how the world of commerce is driving our planet along the pathway
to total control by the elite, with us at the wheel!
Commerce, workers and consumption
Throughout this piece I have
demonstrated how all the pain and fear repressed within drives us away from
our natural thinking and behavior and allows us to be easily controlled.
Now I would like to expand upon this concept and demonstrate how all the avoidance
strategies we are driven to undertake in our daily lives are actually starting
to bring about the total control scenario.
As we have seen, many of the
daily decisions we take are taken to attempt to fulfil a need that we are
not aware exists. We are constantly trying to either protect or distract ourselves from
the thought that we are unlovable, or to recreate repressed situations to "prove to ourselves"
we are not unlovable.
Millions upon millions of us all doing this,
so the Western world is actually starting to become just a mass of avoidance
strategies. We are each of us interpreting our world in a way that allows
us to avoid confrontation with repressed conflicts from our past; and with
a society based on supply and demand, so our planet is slowly being compelled
to facilitate all these avoidance strategies in order that our minds can continue
to hold down all the pain within.
This is why our world has
become so split between the North and the South. People in the Northern Hemisphere
end up enslaving people in the Southern Hemisphere without awareness of what they are doing, just so they can get things
to help them get through the day. The driving instincts and seeking behavior
we adopt to keep pain and fear repressed become translated into corporate
ambition and consumer desires. And so we are driven to undertake the enslavement
of the "Third World" in a desperate attempt to satisfy our misdirected cravings.
It is by
being brought up in the culture that the elite have manipulated into being
that we are driven to virtually enslave other races. And it is in the vehicles the elite
have created that we actually carry out this enslavement. By creating the
vessels for control, the companies and later the corporations, and the human
positions within those vessels, the jobs and the promotional ladder, the elite
have evolved the means by which the whole planet can be slowly be brought
within their grasp.
The corporation is the driving
force behind the dynamic "to control everything." It is the machine that forcibly
draws ever more of the planet's resources under its control. This driving
entity sits embedded within a culture of control – a self-sustaining, ever-expanding
vortex of repression that generates the people who will work for the corporation
and leaves the rest emotionally shipwrecked within a structure that either
imprisons them as worker-consumers or sidelines them without the means to
effectively rebel (the latter as inmates of the prison system or mental institutions,
drug addicts, or the homeless).
Emerging as new-born innately beautiful beings
from our mothers, our minds are so confused by the bewildering treatment we
receive that we allow ourselves to become our own jailers, and slowly, the
jailers of the planet.
And so we might look at three
beautiful humans being born within our culture and see what becomes of them.
As a child, Susanna is an
amazing person, a golden-haired girl who wants nothing more than to simply
enjoy the world around her. But the harsh and imposing conditions of her parents'
strict regime soon mean that she is compelled to give up her carefree outlook.
As her belief in love and the innate goodness of people is torn from her,
she learns to utilize her considerable intelligence to put distance between herself
and her past. Susanna learns that, by distancing herself from others and
maintaining borders, she can protect herself from experiencing more pain.
But because the experiences that caused her to adopt this defensive strategy
remain repressed, she has no means to understand what it is that is truly
motivating her behavior. Susanna becomes a cynical but powerfully motivated
individual. Her driving ambition takes her to the top of the corporate ladder,
where the social and economic power she wields enacts a terrible retribution
upon the planet.
She does not recognize the damage she is doing by forwarding
the causes of corporatization for her motivations are entirely subconscious,
and her conscious mind always creates excuses. Because she cannot recognize
the pain and fear lurking within, she cannot stop acting out her role. And
should one day she finally begin to understand her part in the tragedy unfolding
on Earth and leave the corporate environment, she shall simply be replaced
by one of the many under her only too eager to forward their own subconscious
agenda.
Barry, too, is a quite beautiful
and amazing child. Then one day when he is crawling about the floor, his mother
shouts at him for getting under her feet. His mother has been getting uptight
recently for she has discovered his father has been having an affair. Instead
of discussing this with her husband, she finds it easier to just take it out
on Barry. Pretty soon, Barry begins to accept that there is no point in "someone
like him" reaching out for love, for his experience is that it is usually
withheld and only results in him getting more pain.
And so, as he grows up,
he becomes increasingly motivated to do things that can give him some sense
of the self-worth he subconsciously craves, none of which of course work.
Barry gets a job as a clerk in a post office, intending to use it merely as
a stepping stone to a more rewarding life. But his constant subconscious need
to experience self worth causes him to slowly be drawn into becoming little
more than a slave to consumer society. He works his life away simply to constantly
purchase goods, always wanting a new car or new toys for his children, and
spends much of his time dreaming of material wealth, believing that, if he
had it, the sense of dissatisfaction that lurks within him would go away.
Don is another quite beautiful
child. He loves nothing more than to look around him at the world going by
and stare in wonder at the great beauty of it all. At the age of three, however,
Don's father decides it's time he started to grow up, for it was at that
age that his own father began to enact his conditioning regime on him. Don
starts to find his every waking thought being directed by his father, with
any transgression being met with a firm slap.
Now grown up, Daniel still loves
the natural world. He has no time for consumer culture, soon leaves the small
town he grew up in, and heads for the city. There he takes up with a local
group of political activists and begins attending demonstrations protesting
the activities of the World Trade Organization and similar bodies.
But soon
Don's natural desire to reverse the damage being done to our world becomes
confused with his emotional need to confront the repressive regimes of his
childhood. He finds himself constantly drawn into violent confrontations with
the police. And so his efforts to change the world ultimately serve only to
further marginalize rebellion because his constant subconscious need to indulge
in violent confrontations with authority figures ensures that Barry and the
millions like him will never join Don on the front-line.
Slowly finding
himself more and more driven to hang out only with hard-core elements, Don's
life begins to implode with self-hatred as he starts to grapple with his inability
to control his need for violent confrontation. He soon finds himself addicted
to the illicit painkillers which can at least help him maintain emotional
stability and, aged 29, is tragically found dead one morning of a heroin overdose
in an abandoned building. At his funeral his father believes that, if only
he had been tougher on his son, it would all have been different.
Not one of these three characters,
or the millions they represent, have done anything wrong. All that has happened
is that they have subconsciously utilized natural avoidance strategies
to deal with conditioned treatment from their parents. Unconditioned, and living in a different
time and place, they would all have led quite different lives. But here and
now, in this time and place, they have become merely the means by which the
planet is becoming subject to total control by those who understand how to manipulate human nature.
Part Four – Escape
Those of you who have read
this far could now easily be finding yourselves in a state of either incredulity
or despair, possibly a mixture of both. Could it really be true that such
an organized assault on our freedom has been going on for so long? And, if
it is, what on earth can we do about it? Well, don't panic!
Whatever you feel the truth
of the matter is, the key to understanding all that is going on around us
is to realize that, as a people, we are becoming more aware, and that, as
we do so, so more and more people are beginning to develop the capacity to
see deeper patterns of causation in the world around us and in the events
of our lives. Alternative theories of history are thus a natural product of
the expansion of processing ability that man is currently undergoing.
Most of the rest of this chapter
is written for those who, to some degree, do believe. But, even if you are
a hardened skeptic, even if you aren't remotely convinced it is happening
here and now, you might want to think about ways to prevent this as a possible
future scenario.
Evolution of the Mind
Fifty years ago people simply
felt little need to question what they were told to do by those "above" them.
But because the human mind is still evolving, now they are starting to do
so. And this is why the movement toward globalization and the acceptance of
microchip implants is proceeding at such a pace.
We are the sleeping giant
beginning to stir, and those at the apex of our culture need to shut the prison
door tight before we awaken. It is incredible that such a small group of people
could wield such a level of control in our world, and all we need to do is
wake up and actively express our concerns and the world will be safe. And,
without the goal of total control of the world to aim for, the mass of activities currently
being undertaken to bring it into being will lose impetus, and the technological
advances we have made can be put to use for the benefit of all.
Change
The real source of the problem
is the way we are treating our young. Because we often prefer to give them things
to demonstrate our love for them, rather than actually express this love directly,
our children grow up addicted to material possessions. Because we teach them
wrong from right by withholding affection, they grow up needing rules and
regulations, overly concerned with control and personal power. Because they
don't adequately experience affection, they grow up craving fame and adoration.
And this is principally happening because we experienced the same conditioning
when we were children ourselves.
If we therefore look at both
healing ourselves of the effects of our own conditioning, and progressively
reducing the degree to which we condition our own children, there will be
a massive knock-on benefit to our society. Within many of us there are deep
fears that are constantly restricting our ability to express ourselves, and
if we wish to avoid transferring these fears onto the next generation, we
need to learn where they are coming from and how to stop them crippling our
desire for change.
Remember, the elite are just a few among the six billion
people on this planet. The entire source of their power is their ability to
corrupt natural instincts and direct subconscious needs into
channels of expression that further the ends of total control. This is
all they have. And once this principle is understood by more people, it will
cease to be effective. Our world will change spontaneously around us and we
will be free to love one another in the way we always intended.
There are several basic ways
in which people who want to can begin to change our world.
Firstly, start to learn about
the power of unconditional love. Unconditional love is a real source of healing
and actually the most powerful force in existence. When this force begins
to become powerful within you, you will find everything else in your life
becoming aligned in its wake.
Secondly, challenge the various
"cashless society" schemes now quietly being introduced in several European
cities. Even if you think the whole idea is ridiculous, might it not be worth
clinging to cash for a few extra years just to make sure?
The "SmartCities" project
scheduled to commence in 2002 in Southampton, UK, and Gothenburg, Sweden,
is a good example. If the citizens of these towns refuse to accept this plan,
then any scheme for world domination is in deep, deep trouble. It might seem
ludicrous to believe that such a small thing could save our world, but, in
truth, the elite are only too aware of just how tight a time schedule they
are on.
Once there is resistance at a key point, the whole thing is so severely
disrupted it will simply collapse. The immense power that elite groups wield
relies entirely on sufficient numbers of people not knowing what is really
going on behind the scenes. If the elite cannot get cashless society prototypes
going, they cannot get the chips in. And if they cannot get the chips in
quickly, then soon so many people will will wake up to what is really going
on, it will all be over. So, cling to cash a little.
In addition, we can protest
any moves to introduce
microchip implants onto the market. In January 2001,
US biotech leaders Applied Digital Solutions actually changed the format of
their controversial product, Digital Angel, after being bombarded by protests.
Digital Angel, a microchip with GPS tracking and human bio-monitoring, was
to be offered to the public in implant format, but protests from so-called
"conspiracy theorists" and Christian groups caused the company to withdraw
it and instead offer the chip in wristband format.
Advertising
features that
associate technological advance with implant technology, such as
Orange's
recent "in the palm of your hand" series, can also be attacked. It
doesn't
matter if the advertiser does not intend to "soften the way" for
chip implants – if they are using the imagery of implant technology,
then protest is valid.
Thirdly, undertake charitable acts. There are always people less fortunate than ourselves and they require
our help. The homeless and those addicted to hard drugs in particular are
victims of the elite's inhuman strategy for world domination.
And, finally, start trying
to deal with pain that is repressed within. It is this which causes us to
alter our behavior and thinking to suit the elite's purpose. In fact, the
elite believe that all their power is ultimately derived from the repression
of emotions.
Release
The incredible
tragedy unfolding in our world is ultimately just the result of millions of
personal tragedies that have occurred in our collective childhood. While we
can never reverse what has happened, therapy can help us access our original
pain and stop it from controlling our thinking and behavior. In addition,
therapy can help us to stop suppressing feelings and actions we believe are
unacceptable in our belief that we need to create a persona.
As Jung showed,
every emotion we suppress in the belief that we must present only a fragment
of our total being to the world continues to exist in our subconscious as
part of the "shadow" – the counterpart to the persona. And here all these
repressed natural emotions keep us locked in a world of fear and loathing.
Remember, there is nothing that we can do that is unnatural. All emotions
can be safely accessed and expressed, in appropriate therapy, leaving us free from unnatural
needs.
The gentle exploration of
the subconscious mind, in such a manner that we can slowly process its contents
and express the pain held within, leads to immense natural healing at a very
deep level, not just for ourselves but for the planet we inhabit. These days
there are a multiplicity of techniques that can be employed to allow us to
explore our subconscious mind, to overcome fear, release trapped pain, and
come to terms with childhood memories. These include psychosynthesis, gestalt
therapy, rebirthing, primal therapy, psychodrama, hypnotherapy, reiki, transactional analysis,
and pulsing – to name but a few.
A stress-filled life spent
adopting avoidance strategies can be avoided if one takes steps to progressively
uncover any memories repressed within us and express the associated emotions.
This can be done via therapy or by seeking out peak experiences. All ancient
cultures utilized means of releasing the individual from the effects of repression.
Some would do this by entering into altered states of consciousness achieved
through ritual, the non-ordinary state permitting emotional release to occur
on a level not possible in normal awareness. Other cultures would have regular
festivals where participants would act out character roles, sometimes with
the aid of masks or costume, allowing people to escape sufficiently from their
repressed self to release the emotions trapped within. In Greek mythology,
the god Dionysus tells Man that he must regularly engage in similar activities
or else madness and destruction will descend. It was to the releasing of the
effects of trauma and conditioning that he was referring.
Evolution of Humankind
Increasing numbers of people
believe that humanity is on the edge of a major evolutionary leap. And there
is mounting evidence that many children born now are more developed than those
before them. This may be the reason for the near epidemic in cases of hyperactivity
or attention deficit disorder now being diagnosed in the West.
Those familiar
with chaos theory and how living systems evolve will be aware that evolution
does not proceed in a smooth and linear fashion. What typically happens is
that a few members of a species evolve, followed by a major rearguard action
thrown up by nature. Eventually the pressure builds up to such a level that
nothing can stop the inevitable and the whole species rapidly rises to a new
level of coherence and order.
In the ancient writings of the East whence the
elite derive their esoteric knowledge, it is believed that the ego, the sense
of self, is ultimately just a defensive response we develop to block the experience
of primordial fear. And thus it may be that the centuries of the elite's culture,
the culture of the ego, is merely a natural rearguard action waiting to be
swept away. Reach up and the future is ours.
