A Great Lie This is an assertion; I have no proof of my own.

The intelligence services of our nation have been shot up with steroids. Gross amounts of money and resources have been poured into these organizations such as the FBI, CIA, DOJ, NSA, DEA, DHS and a multitude of others Id never heard of until recently such as SOCOM, PACOM, NRO, NGA since 9/11. Donald Rumsfeld said it himself that the attack on American soil should be used as an opportunity, but an opportunity for what? The recent article on Top Secret America by The Washington Post1 details the expansion of the companies and departments in the network of government veiled in dark obscurity. Most of them are here detailing the works and activities of suspected terrorists, all in the name of protecting the nation from the enemy that reared its head on 9/11. Unfortunately the terrorists here that the government is most worried about are apparently its own citizens, people that havent even done anything yet, but might in the future as the government enacts its designs to make sure that the people are safe. Listen to the undertones. Information warfare is being waged whether you realize it or not. There is much in the way of Orwellian doublethink, cognitive dissonance, and indoctrination through the subtle hand of too much plausible doubt. The fear that arises in the face of painful truth inevitably gives rise to an uncomfortable choice, once often made unconsciously; let the doubt sway me unto ignorance or open myself to painful possibilities? I am reminded of a phrase: one must really love the truth in order to believe it. The most horrible part about this is that there is no enemy. The enemy is a creation of fear. We should never have reacted with such immense fear to 9/11. Those that prey on such things did take action; we were coerced, yes. Coerced into war, into giving up civil liberties, into further regression; regression into entertainment, into lack of motivation, into old habits, into the desire to ignore the infantile world around us driving us somewhere within ourselves that we still find to be comfortable. And so as we sleep a portion of officials get on with their governance and make off with our foreign policy as they please. Meanwhile a portion of business likes profit from the destruction of markets for bets in favor of that outcome. Opportunists. Such profiteering at the cost of others diminishment is greatly lacking in understanding of how we are a whole, and how giving and taking affect that whole. Who are they? They are decentralized, interspersed with many honest men and women that they have tricked into being instrumental to their own demise. I speak generally because this is something happening anywhere and everywhere. It is the process of old roles rotting out. There are those in the financial sector who wish to profit at any cost. There are those in the industrial sector who wish to expand at any cost. There are those in the government who wish to rule unopposed any means necessary. Such people are united only in their purpose. If they convene to delay gratification for greater profit, at greater cost of the people, then things are truly about as bad as they can get.

the New World Order? Is it just a distraction? I do not know for sure. They is the construct created in order to address something affecting our entire world culture. Effects seen, effectors not. That is all. Information on Information, Information of Universal Application How insurmountable the universe and all contained within it is; only way to the other side is through, it would seem. Guided by inner light of our own awareness and deviant pursuit of truth we can make ours a path of clarity and love. Gnosis is my method of inference; recognition that as true beings, we can inherently recognize truth. That is, so long as we can recognize that which is true within ourselves. Its a process of coming to truth, one that has at times left my soul burning with the realization of impending change. Not always gently. I awkwardly admit I now understand some of the antics of mad raving prophets. However, where they have boldly acted on assertion, I have not. I was raised in a community that expounds the necessity of empirically and strong evidence. Both of which I do not have. I have intuition, gnosis, and a ton of information that can lead you to too many different conclusions. But all I want is the truth. You know what the truth is? No one is right. We are all fucking as wrong as we can possibly be. Our way forward, OUR TRUTH, is together. Not apart. No matter how much any one of us researches or delves into the ocean of information that process alone will not bring us to where we want to be. Here is what I have learned from information processing: If you want answers to your questions, merely ask, and then listen. You will be answered. If you do not stop asking, then there will always be more answers leading to more questions. The more you conclude within your own life and being, the more apt you are to find closure in what you question. You are the only one aligning the data points, so thus you are the deciding force in synthesis; since it is you who are the filter. Truth can be attained, but truth can vary in forms and usually comes in degrees rather than in pristine absolutism. Should you think something to be a fundamental truth, then it will be present within everything, the more it is present with, the truer it is. This is also why our path forward is together.

Knowledge is cyclic: most information, if not all, is relative or dependent on other infos. One node unto another, every node is connected in some way or another to all of it. All of these nodes of information being connected to each other are examples of a fundamental truth. That everything is connected; connected to itself. This is a truth of a fundamental order, as everything that arises within the universe is connected to it, and there are no exceptions to that truth, and therefore absolute. It is within the variables of the universe and its aspects that are not so defined that we find the more confusing form of truth; that of relative truth. I am 23 years old; this is my approximate age, and a relative truth. It is true for me, and others of the same age. Not true for most people, and has not been and will not be true for most of my life, only true for a limited duration of time.

It is within this sea of relative truth where much confusion arises. We never learned how to properly discern between what is relative or absolute, especially since most of our information is at odds with itself. Different sectors of people advocate differing forms, sometimes of the exact same thing yet still arguing over how it should appear. This is a result of the breakdown of communication. With the vast influx of information we are essentially presented with a situation where we must evolve our mode of communication of ideas and concepts from a conflict orientation, motivated by the pride of being right; towards a more respectable mode of orientation. One of sharing information and discussing the weak links in order to come to its own relative or absolute truth, thus ever strengthening our information integrity, which is motivated by the gift this brings to everyone. Each person sees the world through the lens of themselves. And this lens is firstly composed of fundamental truth, whatever that may be; and secondly of relative information in all sorts of degrees of truth. Ones worldview can even appear to contradict the fundamentals when the belief of misinformation is great enough. Therein lays the value of information warfare. Why anyone would dupe themselves into the temptation to control or influence the pool of information for ulterior motives. If you would like to judge this for yourself: 1. Stop consuming digital media for a time. The duration should be as long as it takes for you to become comfortable without it. 2. Clear yourself of judgments, if you still want them after doing so you can always pick them back up. 3. Come back to the media in which you consume, and pay close attention. What has what youve been listening to your whole life been telling you to do? What information does it add to your own pool? 4. Watch as newfound clarity tells you about the world you live in. I cant nor will I tell you what exactly it is that you will discover. That can only be experienced by you. Feel free to deviate for innovations of your own, of course. These are just some guidelines. No it is not easy, but it is simple. And so I continue to urge you to wake up. Not to succumb to zombie-hood. Not to fall prey to the carrots expounded by society. The more we accept truth, the more we awaken. The more we deny truth, the more we drift towards a waking dream. Sins of our fathers left to generation after generation has led to ripening of these sins. What before could not overtake the minds of us all, has matured. I dont know what that is in truth, but I can feel it. Maybe its our lazy despondency. Maybe its some conspirators. Maybe its rampant consumerism and the resulting destruction of nature. Maybe its all of it. Maybe its none of it, but all together it fucks us. I honestly do not know for sure. I do know that playing the blame game will cost us far more than the comfort it affords. While much of the ills of today were sown in days gone by the fact remains that we are responsible for how we deal with them. If we dont forge new ways for us to come together, if we dont solve our extreme deficiency in communication, if we persist in the old ways, we will die with them.

So open your mind. Open that which has cobwebs from your youth. Take out that imagination of yours and wonder about truth instead of fantasy. Break away from modes of habit that diminish you or others. Talk with others. LISTEN to others. Dont hold onto fears lest they destroy your mind. As fear is the mind killer. Focus your attention on matters unattended, yes, but mostly upon that which you wish to move towards. The old will pass away of its own accord, but what we will create requires our attention now if it is ever to be.
