sincerely is sincerity Peter Mathiessen write a books called In the Spirit of Crazy Horse and I read it it having seen it referenced in many other books and knowing little about its contents only to find that it focuses on very recent events of the seventies that are every bit as horrifying as the Federal Government involvement at the Waco incident and the Ruby Ridge incident and as is the case for anyone who begins to see integrated consciousness I find a natural integration of My Lai with Waco, Ruby Ridge, Sand Creek, Washita River, Wounded Knee, Kent State, Wounded Knee II, Ogalala-Pine Ridge what people will do for money is how the supporters of the victims are calling is now its quite shocking for many people brought through life with experiences mostly of kindness to confront the reality that there are enought people who are ready to commit any act of inhumanity or desecration of other life for money and one of the ironies is that much of the reason people fall into the trap is because of the association of money with freedom yet it is an illusion that money alone can bring freedom that is the integrated view why people go out and commit such inhuman acts the root of it all is greed which in turn is the most serious sort of psychosis yet a psychosis which is strangely and mysteriously within the flawlessly perfect design of the entire simultaneously present past future and present Universe a psychosis that is in fact an embryonic precursor of awakened consciousness since pre-meditated murder can only come from a mind that confined and dimly lit a mind that is barely conscious yet believes itself to be fully conscious not knowing that whatever its grade of consciousness, it is but a pin prick of light in a vast conscious whole that remains dormant in it and leads it via ignorance to continued suffering and it is preciselt this liberation from suffering, emancipation from insanity, psychosis, neurosis that is the guiding design which underlies the evolutionary patterns of awakening like as science in the second law of thermodynamics claims that the

underlying guiding design of the Universe is that there is none except that of entropy, the descent into the future of total disorder yet as rather brilliantly elucidated by one of those artsy craftsy psychologists is no more than a metaphorical superimposition of observations of the conduct of enclosed compressed gases - water vapor, onto the fabric of the entire Universe which when observed in its wholeness directly does not accept the puny mold of the steam engine and the fossil fuel burning habits that have grown from it So as is generally recognized by those who take the time to awaken, many movements disguise themselves and human beings are very cunning, even the most pyschotic who suffer from the agonies of confinement in the greatest degree. When we see expressions of great dissatisfaction with how things are and especially when it is directed against those who are assigned blame by the same dissatisfied people we should be cautious as to the underlying motives nad diligent in looking into the possibility that disguises and deception are being used by greedy power hungry psychotic killers with a lust for power and control over others. Freedom is an incredibly powerful motivator and those who seek to enslave and control know only too well. There is a connection between The Voice of The Earth and In the Spirit of Crazy Horse. It is said that there are greedy people who have made claims upon the lands of native peoples all over the western states of the US. The latter book seeks to imply that corporate interests which seek to exploit the coal and uranium on the Lakota lands and other native peoples lands are willing to manipulate the government via the Federal Bureau of Investigation and to wantonly murder innocent people in the lust for nothing but money since that is the ultimate goal of the corporate intrerests. They are people, The large stockholders and the managers. I personally see this as more than a symptom of industrial civilization or of capitalism. More than a characteristic of Western European culture. More than a defect of science and technology although it is definitelu a symptom of all

of these which at one time or another over the last forty years and particularly in the sixties became the hated enemy of the people who were once the counter-culture and is now the people of the emergent ecozoic planetary culture. Today the hatred and scorn is directed at corporate interests, industrialism, patriarchies while over the years it has been the miltary industrial complex, capitalism. consumerism, western civilization, technology etc. There are those who seek politcal advantage in all of this who are cunning enough to disguise themselves in order to manipulate the thirst for freedom in support of their own greed and lust for power. They are most readily identified by their indulgence. Its not just a matter of possessions and property but of consumption above all. An impeccable being can pretend to be indulgent but the indulgent cannot escape their excessive consumption habits which mark them. Those who blame the global corporate police state for all the misfortunes of native peoples, of the poverty stricken peoples, of extinct and endangered species, are telling but a part of the story and one that looks dangerously close to what would be expected of those who see themselves as taking over that role - a rival group of younger people usually wishing to get rich and powerful. When there is projection of blame and hate onto those who are in those positions of power, instability can be expected and it can be felt today. Those who wish to make a move for money and power have every interest in stirring up discontent wherever they can. There are those who recognize that the root of the ecological crisis is spiritual and that the global industrial culture of today is one that has the byproduct of the compression of consciousness - the confinement of consciousness with rules of all kinds and while this strategy of manipulation and confinement of consciousness is today employed in the most sophisticated and sinister ways by the greediest it is basically a human characteristic and a natural aspect of the evolution of consciousness and while the strategy has been fine tuned cruelly by those who manipulate todays media for their personal

gain and self indulgence, it has been with us since the days of the emergence of the first human beings when speech was first developed. I suppose this is the very core of the need for available habitat for human beings that is spiritually nurturing like this beautiful habitat here on Crestone Creek as previously expressed here in writing, there are two ways to go about contributing to liberation from suffering. One is by communicating in the forms of music, poetry, fiction, non-fiction and even in painting. Another is by construction of spiritually nurturing habitats. This is a non verbal means that includes within the verbal in the form of libraries.
