Cloak of Invisibility, Hall of Mirrors

Hey, kids.

I've been thinking a lot about this one.

If you've made it this far, there's got to be something or other I said that got through to that, "Say, WHAT?!" part of the melon that connects us all. Let's face it -- the Big Guy has high-def cable running straight through your hat rack 24/7, and you're not getting maximum clarity because you bought your receiver and tv from PTB, Inc. ("We OWN You!"tm).

It's that nagging feeling. That sense that everything is just not right. War is raging. You have to take sides...

Nope. Duality is inherently divisive. The TRUTH doesn't play for any team. And we're reaching for TRUTH, aren't we? Answers to all the "why"s. A blueprint for blue skies. And rose colored glasses that can see through lies. And the kicker is, in order for there to be Truth (and a reason to look for it) there have to be forces of war and human suffering.

Friction creates change. Opposites attract, and that dynamic is what keeps the wheels spinning. We exist because the entire Universe is made up of uncountable pushes and pulls in all things. And they all follow the same tune. Your gods all sing the same song, but in different keys.

*Pause for the "WTF?!" moment...* And we're walking...

The fine folks at PTB, Inc. ("We OWN You!"tm) are in fact doing all they can, through any means necessary, to harvest human emotional energy in an orgiastic display of soul-sucking glee. And it's the nastiest energies that get their motors running. Fear, anger, greed -- the seven deadly sins funneled off to a society of energy leeches that control the world!!! *diabolical laugh*

If they were to talk a lowly member the Herd, we'd hear how their kind can't survive without our hellish pick-me-ups. And they're not violating our Free Will any more than we would raising an animal to slaughter. If that is somethings purpose, then no harm and no foul.

Enter, well... all of us. A fly in the ointment, if you will. They recognize that some of us may not sing the tune, but we can hear it same as they can. Playing the Game properly means knowing the rules, and they have the upper hand. "An it harm none, so mote it be." Free Will is a Truth. One of the biggies. And nobody at that level of the Game wants the backlash of denying a sentient being their right to make a choice.

The Bad Guys play by the Rules?!
Of course they do. But they'll skate right up to the absolute line and tease ya with a little guilty pleasure. YOU make the decision to cross the line, and PTB Inc. now holds a lease on your misery. The Bad Guys from Space are very well-versed in getting puppets to do their nastiness. Keeps their hands clean, and (by their interpretation of the Rules) they haven't actually harmed anyone directly.

Know Thy Enemy.
They do bad things because doing Bad Things gets them closer to the the Really Big Tune. Like getting into the attic from either side of the ladder, they're reaching for Truth, too. We've grown to accept the notion that all things are cut and dried, black or white. Duality feeds their machine. Conflict. Divided countries, races, families. They will exercise any means available to them to perfect their path to the Truth. Because when you climb the hill far enough, there's an infinite number of staircases leading to the spot you stand on the Path.

So, THEY want to cause pain, suffering and general misery for all of us because that's what they do to survive and glow as sentient beings. You have made a conscious decision to opt out of the Game they set up by refusing to play. But the system exists at so many levels that it's impossible to avoid confrontation. You are being repressed, you can see the System at work, and you're backed into a corner. What can you do?

We all give off a vibe. That's our own special Mojo working, and it's tasty! Our gracious hosts are aparently lactose-intolerant when it comes to the better virtues. It just doesn't have the same snap! of the nasty hatred and bickering. So make yourself not so emotionally appealing. Be aware of the vibe you put out and deny any intrusion that challenges your Free Will.

Pay your bills. Live your life. Play the Game. Find conditions favorable to becoming who you truly are. It's not about giving a life for a cause, it's living a life for a cause. There are conditions that we simply will not be able to change, because it denies the Bad Guys their opportunity to rise above their manipulations and evolve. Their systems are in place, and we cannot tear them down. This is their end game, and the Game requires their hand gets played. Find the places between, where the song can still be heard. Look beyond a problem, difficulty or challenge. You are not food. You are here, under these conditions, because it's the best place for you to become who you are. The fight is lost if you can't hear the Song in the heat of battle.
