Who's Disclosure is Disclosure?

Sun Apr 14, 2019 2:16 am by Cyrellys

The narrative war is in full swing. When there's a 100 different competing narratives, how is it possible to discern a disclosure?

Is it akin to which truth is Truth?

    First topic message reminder :

    Bjc could stand for lots of things.  It’s possible to suppose that it stands Baltimore Junior College.  It’s possible to suppose that c stands for chick, which is short for chicken.  

    Talk about a pink slip, yesterday, puts me in mind of being laid off, which puts me in mind of a retrospective.........

    And a topic header does require at least ten characters.......

    The allotted length for a thread is 40 pages...... giving us a chance to take the occasional breather...... as the show goes on.

    U has been around awhile.

    I admire his keeping with it.

    Not sure if he is an Alt account of anyone though.

    He has some depth though and humor he does seem too focused on conspiracy theories like most muppets.

    I dunno, maybe I got under the ole chick's skin or he likes to at least have an audience of 1 or 2 when he holds High Court, left club foot withstanding.

    I do wonder what it is U feels and how he sees things sometimes.

    He is a cryptic poster like I am.

    We have our own language we use.

    Maybe it's green language.

    He could be a magician, but I suspect he is one of those UFO burnouts floating around on the fringes.

    Ha!

    I only pretend to care.

    I am a pointless point.

    foot 🦶 tries to put on a good front, but, at the very least, I do believe that donny is going to get a run for his money.  

    donny’s got one thing right......... the virus 🦠 was sent by God.

    I’ll be watching the debate this evening with some interest.  

    kamala will have a higher bar than joe.  

    But, yes, foot is stepping up his disinformation effort...... directed at least partly at chick 🐥.  I’m getting a bit tired 😴 of it.  

    Someone is sweating 😓 bullets, and it ain’t me.

    Dan is such a name dropper.

    Remember, he is a known looney.

    Come to think of it, so am I!

    I wonder if Dan would agree with me when I say that we overelaborate our contacts with the Logos.

    We live to tell stories, that’s making shit up.

    Terence McKenna is an example. He was just making shit up about Eschatons and shit based on his once intimate connection with the Logos. So his brother says about the last 10 years of his life.

    He pulled away from an intense connection.

    Religions are born from the materializing of very deep inner connections someone had.

    I stopped drinking the tea 2 years ago.

    I could still be with those whackos tripin balls in my green shirt and white pants.

    Some very Jim Jones vibes.

    They worship that tea.

    They made a religion around a mystical thing.

    My visions got very intense.

    Scary maybe.

    Daimonic.

    Like, I’m deeply aware of daimonic presence.

    Like, they interacted with me directly in my mind on the tea.

    Really, I’ll never understand that stuff.

    I mean I played around with a portal tool 100ks of years old.

    Ancient mind tech.

    If it wasn’t a portal, then wtf is?

    But I found something in being willing to die.

    It wasn’t the tea.

    It was that desperation.

    It wasn’t what I saw.

    It’s how I live with love that matters here.

    I mean it was beyond my paygrade intense.

    It was just a bit too much for the Dude.

    The Dude was watching...and waiting.

    See, my mind just...blew up and hit my heart and anything around me.

    But as I was on my back looking up at the sky.

    The Dude showed up and said...hey Dude.

    Looking down on me he croaked...are we having fun yet?!

    Fun?!

    I begged him to turn it off.

    But he just turned the volume up and waited around.

    Finally he walked over again.

    Take my hand friend and stand up he said.

    Very good, very good he said as he walked around me inspecting my every pore.

    Then he laid down some flow.

    He said, now listen here pipsqueak.

    Just calm down.

    Yah yah, you saw all that shit and heard that and this.

    Blah blah blah.

    The gods are always chattering.

    But dude, you are here, relax.

    You have become aware you are not just what is happening.

    Now you become the Dude.

    Now you let yourself out of the cell.

    And just relax...Dude.

    And that’s how I learned, you are all full of shit, me most.

    The Dude abides.

    See U, that’s how you fuckin lay it down.

    Because you been down there.

    All the way down and you know pretenders when you see em.

    You chase them away, silly phantoms.

    Fair enough Dan, I had pasted MK's old posts because they were relevant to the previous talks of the Covid vaccine.  I find certain people can put things into words better than I can.

    Smelly, in many ways I am burned out on UFOs but I still believe it is the single most important topic in the world today. That said I think the identity of the occupants of the craft is at the heart of the issue. I've presented my theory in my own way, I find it to be more compelling than anyone else's, no false modesty here and I'm endlessly perplexed that far more haven't come to same conclusion as I, though many have laid the groundwork of my belief and many more will come down the line. I'm not any known public figure either but you can speculate all you'd like, that's part of the fun!

    Good to read you U.

    Ditto, I could be Trump for all anyone knows Wink

    I could work below any known intelligence agency and in fact do.

    I'm not trying to change any minds though, almost impossible and such a waste of effort.

    This trickster spirit knocks it all out of your hands in my experience.

    You can't hold onto anything, you can only abide it or not.

    I disagree with you U and Dan about what is most important here, but so what?

    I don't think this is at all a matter of faith or belief, those to me are shrouding what is happening.

    Those ways of thinking are to me a trap.

    This is Final Participation in my estimation.

    Holding opposite ideas in mind.

    That is a whole new way of being.

    We feel and see and hear the immaterial, most deny, and we are here participating in this collective experience.

    I have had some very deep interactions with folks who resonate with that unspeakable state of mind.

    Usually through art and gardening.

    I don't believe it is the BPW or not.

    So I think I have shared it more compellingly, ha!

    Funny, huh Wink

    We all live in our own minds, that's natural.

    I would say, the most important thing is Knowing Yourself and all that unravels.

    Which may include UFOs, but UFOs are just a feeder I feel to the deeper happening.

    I find it telling how UFO and psychedelic experiencers overelaborate and likely embellish their experiences and can not share their inner experience well.

    Same for me, not needing to be understood was my freedom.

    We all have our opinions and perspectives, can't say one is more right than another, that sounds relativistic, I think Einstein had relativity kinda right, but I am not a physicist.

    I think being is synchronistic and muppets have taken those synchronicities, and using their imagination, created all these UFO sightings and religious rantings.

    But when it comes down to it, there are no answers and nothing to say in my opinion, here, we are just barking dogs and a club left foot.

    **WOOF WOOF**

    I feel we are all like burning incense sticks on the altar, some burn faster than others, but we all end in ashes. Some say to me that sounds hopeless.

    To them I just have a smile.

    How could anyone live a life thinking they continue as is after death, that is nothing but wishful imagination, at them I have to laugh.

    That is total delusion imho.

    They aren't being honest about what they don't know.

    They have chosen a fixed position in an always changing world.

    There is really nothing to do about that.

    Just have to let it all roll I say with no reward or hope knowing any moment you are gone forever.

    Anything else can be a surprise, why can't the world live honestly like that?

    Anything that pops up on OMF, I look into.

    Let me check this Rogan vid out...

    Yep, whatever this is, it is nameless and faceless and certainly not your Daddy.

    Gonna check that book out, but I know this is not in the book.

    The book is only an overelaboration.

    I think every book is just an overelaboration.

    No one writes better about the occult than Gary Lachman these days.

    I like his style a la Colin Wilson, Colin is the other great recent writer on the occult.

    Hancock is a bit nutty in my view.

    Gary lives it, he practiced Gurdjieff's work and Thelema, worked through Jung's individuation.

    He isn't writing abstract theory books.

    I realized the whole consciousness hard problem was over abstracted nonsense.

    You just have to participate.

    Show me a better way, anyone?!

    And the kid talking to Rogan hasn't studied/experienced enough, it was actually called incubation and the image we have of the nameless God was Abraxas.

    If you have experienced the Red Book you have some idea maybe.

    You have to go to the ones who went there before you descend yourself.

    Anyone who has spoken to the Goddess knows this.

    That Goddess could be Cthulhu as far as I know.

    They need to be careful.

    No one listens to Graham cause you can't tell people.

    They have to go themselves.

    This is not enjoyable.

    Rogan has never dived in really I bet, he's full of shit.

    You do lose fear of death, that opens life up quite a lot.

    I won't accept eternal being yet or dare believe in the Garden or the Goddess.

    I even now question the psychedelic.

    Nope nope nope, I won't be distracted.

    YOU HAVE TO PARTICIPATE

    I listened to Marcus, you accept, this experience will end.

    You don't lose fear of death on promise of eternal life.

    That's a big lie.

    You really gotta let it go for the magic to work.

    I let go of eternity.

    I'm here and then I won't be and that's all I know.

    So many pretenders.

    Smelly, you sound secure in your own confusion which is an accurate reflection of the current collective consciousness. I applaud you for holding the mirror. Your judgement of others is a judgement of yourself and typically a sign of one's own insecurity. As you meander about with your ideas bumping around in the dark and in your subjectivity you play the role of the trickster archetype well. Kudos! (But for the record I prefer Kermit the Hermit).

    Bahahahahahaha

    The blind lead the blind in this world.

    Don’t ya know?

    Joe is confused, as usual.

    His guests are pretenders, as usual.

    Showmen selling good vibes.

    Takes all kinds of weirdos to make a world.

    Anyway, Kermit the hermit comes and goes, he’s a cynic of course, you get what you get muppet.

    Sometimes a beast and sometimes a burden.

    If you hide from your dark, it will eat you.

    You should know that.

    I am secure in and welcoming of my death.

    My dance is a dance of freedom gifted to me by death.

    But hark, we have a challenger!

    I, the green 🐐 will take your head.

    Very good, let’s dance muppet, forrrrrrr we both are 💀  and ash...

    Letz git down wid tha sicknezz...

    When you know, you know my pretending friend.

    I am sure of nothing accept that I am not sure of anything but my end and yours.

    Let us rejoice in not knowing anything but that.

    Let me be clear.

    You have a sickness.

    You won’t accept it.

    You won’t see it.

    But when you get through it, I’m here with you.

    But you are not here my friend.

    Fool yourself all you like.

    But the smelly goat has you.

    You have Disclosure sickness with acute psychedelic complications.

    If you have chosen a fixed position, ain’t gonna work.

    ...

    "The whole world is the donkey; how can you mount it? If you mount it, you can be sure the sickness will not leave! If you don’t mount it, the whole universe is wide open!

    When the two sicknesses are gone, and there is nothing on your mind, then you are called a wayfarer. What else is there? This is why when Zhaozhou asked Nanquan, “What is the path?”

    Nanquan replied, “The normal mind is the path.” Now Zhaozhou suddenly stopped his hasty search, recognized the sickness of “Zen Masters” and the sickness of “Buddhas,” and passed through it all. After that, he traveled all over, and had no peer anywhere, because of his recognition of sicknesses." --Foyan

    Have you gotten off the donkey For?!

    HA

    Are you down with your sickness pretender For?

    I think not, therefore I am.

    Got nuthin on my mind, how bout you dogooder?

    I’m sure that little muppet brain of yours is filled with plans upon plans.

    Drop em muppet.

    This is a stick up!

    I've died thousands of deaths and am ready to go again if need be. I simply am, and comfortable in my death.  

    Your addiction to Cannabis has turned your once sharp sword into a butter knife, barely able to cut through the stench of your own smelly turds that swirl about in your head and then onto the screen that we read.  

    The Dude doesn't abide in your posts - the real message we all hear from your posts is, "Where's the money Lebowski?" ...Poser...or what's the word you use....Pretender?

    Choices, actions and intentions feed the multiverse.  You've chosen (for now) to sit on the sidelines with your popcorn (a roasted vegetable), cannabis, and wine and become the Muppet you truly deserve.  Although I applaud your courage and time doing the deep work and healing in the Cup, in your age and addictions (choices) you've clearly become a soft and confused old man unwilling to hold onto anything but your own self pity, insecurity and selfishness which has in turn evolved into narcissism.  Sadly, not an uncommon linear progression these days.  But alas, it does keep things "interesting."

    So says the simulacra.

    We all have our opinions.

    1700z.........

    It was in ‘91 that I had my 911 experience, not to be confused with the 9/11 experience.  

    Previous to ‘91, I had the DNoS experience in ‘66, and the Sophia experience in ‘77.  

    The Sophia experience was not unrelated to the Mother Ayahuasca experience related by Hancock.

    Rather than reflecting on the past, however, Sophia led me to the prophetic tradition..... and preparing me for the 911 experience that was to come ten years later.  

    My 911 experience........ see something, say something...... which led me to foot 🦶.  

    As I posted at the time, I fancied myself the Spirit of Truth, here to announce the Eschaton.  

    Then along came the Princess 👸, and, not long after, donny........

    Many who come to the paranormal also come to be involved with the charisms....... not the least of which is charisma....... if not with their own, then with others manifesting it.  

    Thus do we have the close association of the occult with power, as explored by Gary Lachman, for example.  

    donny, for instance, is a practitioner of chaos magic, with many devoted fans.  

    Politicians strive for charisma, whatever their persuasion.  Those who manage the most are often persuaded toward fascism.

    Managing the magic...... exploiting the occult...... draws one in that direction.  

    Chivo, in his own anarchic fashion, practices chaos magic on me.  

    I find myself surrounded by it, left and right.  


    1800........

    I have news from nowhere....... prophetic news.  

    Practitioners of the dark arts, left and right, fear the Logos...... they fear the Word of Truth.  

    Technology, when pursued as an end in itself, in pursuit of power, becomes a dark art.  

    In technocracy, the only buffer becomes secular humanism...... a very pale cousin of personalism...... personalism is soul power.  

    Yes, I subscribe to soul power, the infinite power that resides at the core of every being.  This is my news from nowhere.  

    We are about to unleash that power, in a chain reaction that will blow the lid off our small world, and launch 🚀 us into the abyss of the Monad.  

    This is the Eschaton.  

    Outwardly, this launching will appear chaotic...... despite the fact that it has been orchestrated by every one of us...... down through the ages.  

    Timing is of the essence.  

    It is essential for us to know the light, and how to follow it..... before the blast off.  

    The light is agape....... you follow it with your heart and mind...... with your sapient soul.  The external light must match the color of your soul....... yes, the color of your parachute 🪂.  

    Each of us moves toward the external light that matches our inner light.  

    But, do keep in mind, that opposites do attract, so you may be tacking into the wind..... just let the wind fill your sails.  

    Yes, we are the logoi spermatozoa, fertilizing the Monad....... we all get through....... at our appointed ‘time and place’. The first shall be last, and the last shall be first.

    --Nietzsche

    Gary Lachman has covered this pretty well too in his books.

    Jung covered this too.

    https://www.amazon.com/Lilith-Historical-Psychological-Aspects-Feminine-ebook/dp/B007LPK07U

    "We have no symbolic life, and we are all badly in need of the symbolic life. Only the symbolic life can express the need of the soul – the daily need of the soul, mind you! And because people have no such thing, they can never step out of this mill – this awful, banal, grinding life in which they are “nothing but.”…Everything is banal; everything is “nothing but,” and that is the reason why people are neurotic. They are simply sick of the whole thing, sick of that banal life, and therefore they want sensation. They even want a war, they all want a war, they are all glad when there is a war, they say, “Thank heaven, now something is going to happen – something bigger than ourselves!” These things go pretty deep, and no wonder people get neurotic. Life is too rational; there is no symbolic existence in which I am something else, in which I am fulfilling my role, my role as one of the actors in the divine drama of life."

    — C.G. Jung

    In Jung's view, "the snake, as a chthonic and at the same time spiritual being, symbolizes the unconscious." In particular, it seems to refer to "the latter's sudden and unexpected manifestations, its painful and dangerous intervention in our affairs, and its frightening effects." Crucial to an understanding of the significance of the serpent or snake as a libido-symbol is a consideration of the biological characteristics of the actual creature. Jung stresses the fact that the snake is a "cold-blooded vertebrate" and that with it the "psychic rapport that can be established with practically all warm-blooded animals comes to an end."  Like the Gnostics who identified the serpent with the human medulla and spinal cord, Jung regards the snake as the psychic representative of the profoundly unconscious reflex functions which are governed by these organs.

    ...the snake would correspond to what is totally unconscious and incapable of becoming conscious, but which, as the collective unconscious and as instinct, seems to possess a peculiar wisdom of its own and a knowledge that is often felt to be supernatural. This is the treasure which the snake (or dragon) guards, and also the reason why the snake signifies evil and darkness on the one hand and wisdom on the other. Its unrelatedness, coldness, and dangerousness express the instinctuality that with ruthless cruelty rides roughshod over all moral and any other human wishes and considerations and is therefore just as terrifying and fascinating in its effects as the sudden glance of a poisonous snake.

    To tie this in with Dan, welcome to symbolic existence, which is half of Barfield's Final Participation.

    I met the Horned God, we play poker, smoke joints and drink and dance.

    Gotta be willing to lose control.

    I wonder how often For loses control.

    Good post.
