(This is in answer to the many posts below regarding this subject)

Mr. Seeley,

I hope you realize that you have entirely proven Mr. Haddo's point: If they divide us; they conquer us and you are decidedly and firmly mentally programmed into their game. Do you see what you are doing? Look at your Self for a moment and just try to identify it as separate from YOU. You'll see that you are the sentry standing at the gates using your programmed intimidation in an attempt to keep us all in 'our places'. You are the proverbial guard 'crab' in the Mexican crabpot, pulling the rest of us back in! As long as you keep us arguing over whether Catholics are 'better' than jews or Men are better than women, we are focused outward onto THEIR System. In this way, they have kept our 'magical beingness' hostage for literally thousands of years! Re-read what you have written in this light and you'll see what I mean. Self-knowledge, Mr. Seeley. Know Thyself!

I'm not going to argue whether you AND Mr. Buchanan have a right to tell me what to do with my body. YOU DON'T. It is as simple as that. What I do is between ME and MY Godhead and neither of us really care one whit about your opinion on that particular subject. You are not going to argue me out of my point of view because I don't get my information from you or the likes of you. You can kill me, but you cannot change my mind. You see, I don't get my information from somebody else's idea of god anymore. I gave that up entirey not so very long ago. I get my information about the world from INSIDE of me. (As I have a hunch many on this forum do.)

But Mr. Seeley, I did do something you suggested, and I want to thank you for suggesting it: I watched the new Dune last night on the Sci Fi Channel and it had, and has (it is on again this evening), a powerful message: FEAR is the Mind Killer.

Pat Buchanan's entire message was about fear. AND Fear is something I am VERY well versed in. Indeed, you might say, I'm an 'expert' in the Field of Fear....(As I rather suspect many in this forum are...) Fear is only useful as an alarm clock. Once one realizes its efficacy, one uses it as the lift beneath the wings of Mind. It has no other purpose than to lift us out of the dilemma...out of the programmed structure, but if we get stuck in the structure, as you appear to be, and wander across a forum such as this, it is likely because we are desparate to find the way out of that structure that is constantly squeezing our Size 12 minds into a size 3 'shoe'. Feeling a little 'tight'?

Here is a mirror, Mr. Seeley. LOOK! It is INSIDE of you, staring you in the face. Start out by giving your hurting 'inner child' a hug...or use whatever other language works for you. Whatever yours is, is waiting for you. You'll find it if you just stop and listen; NOT to the programmed, filtered language of 'conscience', but to your absoutely FREE inner Consciousness that erupts from the Space of YOUR Inner Silence!

You can look for eons but you're not going to find 'IT' OUT THERE in the Bible or anything else. The Bible, the Koran, the Cabalah, the beautiful Essene Gospel,ALL OF IT, every last iota, even the words in this forum, are just 'road signs' pointing INWARD; fingers pointing the way towards your own Personal Reservoir of Magic!

This is, of course, what the Powermongers have been so desperately trying to keep from us: Knowledge of our own Perfect Being. This is why for at least 2,000 years they have been killing off every ancient society that contained knowledge of the Magic that is our Essence. (Hmmm, Magic Essence. Might that not be shortened to 'ME'?). THEY have destroyed The Native Americans (Watch the movie Thunderheart); The Essenes and Christ, himself; the Druids; The Celts; the Cathars, the Templars AND when it sprung up in the very founding of a great new nation known as America, they had to come and destroy it here too! (Watch "Instinct" with Anthony Hopkins!) With the New World Order, they are trying to stamp it off the face of the earth once and for all, while breathing in its Essence through the sacrifice of little children, etc.

You want REAL Christianity? Read Hannibal's Essenes message. Do whatever it takes, but someplace along the way, turn off the roof brain chatter for a moment so you can HEAR yourself for once; the perfect Inner Silence that bathes you every moment. The very thing 'THEY' don't want you to discover about your Self!

Let us make sure we understand each other: I am not talking about religion here which is nothing but the 'dead zone'; ie., someone else identifying for you what ONLY YOU CAN identify for yourself. And no matter which religion it is, it is part of our kindergarten. Christ was NEVER about Religion. He was about the Godfire Being that IS US! I am talking about the first hand experience of the magic of the human mind. You can call it 'god' if you like. Some call it Energy; some, Cosmic Consciousness; others Enlightenment. One of my personal favorites is 'Christed Consciousness'. We could spend all day arguing semantics, but who cares whether we call the color 'blue', azure, sky, or Microsoft?! We understand what we are each talking about because we can 'SEE' it; ie., EXPERIENCE what the color 'blue' means. But what if you saw a NEW COLOR of Mind? How would you explain that to someone else so you could discuss it?

In other words, it doesn't matter what we call our EXPERIENCE as long as we can agree on what we are talking about. It is the Experience that is important, this phenomenal GROWTH of Mind; not whether it is going to be called 'god' or 'bruce willis'!

This is what the Powermongers have done to us: They have caused us to focus on words like Jew and Catholic and hate and evil and fanned the flames of our ignorance around how they were all different so we would never come to KNOW the absolute similarity of our INTERNAL Experience. And we dutifully went out and 'fought' for their 'Words'; their identifications! How foolish can we be?

Our Magical Beingness is the one place where we are all alike. And it is that connection, which comes from the realization of our similarities, as we reach towards each other across the programmed 'bullsh*t, that makes this forum so darn wonderful!

In other words, it doesn't matter what words we use to identify the experience as long as we ALL KNOW we are tallking about the same EXPERIENCE. THIS IS THE COMING TOGETHER THAT THE POWERMONGERS ARE SO TERRIFIED OF. They hide behind 'divide and conquer', while the Internet, and this Post, are bringing us together in ways it could not happen before.

CASE IN POINT: Remember Mozart's arch nemesis, Solari? You can't live it unless YOU ARE IT!

LESSON OF THE VIET NAM VETS:
In earlier days when I too was caught under the heavy pall of the Catholic/Corporate/Gov't system, (And I was such a good little soldier! Very much like you.) I wondered what it was that made Viet Nam Vets so very interesting. Indeed, they seemed so uncomfortable with the system in which I lived, so I spent some time studying the way they thought. And then I realized something fundamental: Most of the really interesting ones had been forced to live in a state of abject fear while in Viet Nam. They'd faced death over and over again. Their minds grew hugely from this experience. Fear became like a mental 'barbell' that they had to learn how to lift over and over and over again. Some of them mastered it; others went crazy. Those that mastered it were WAY beyond the rest of society in terms of their emotional development. We were like a stupid kindergarten to them. They didn't fit anymore, thus their discomfiture. They went to live in the Wilderness where they were far more comfortable.

[I don't doubt for a moment that the courage that it took for Rayelan Allen to create this site, came from this same kind of experience. There is NO doubt whatsoever that this very courageous human being KEEPS HER OWN COUNSEL!!!!]

Have you ever read "Man's Search for Meaning" by Victor Frankl? If not, you really should avail yourself of this most extraordinary realization of what happens to an educated Man when he is stripped of every semblance of social comfort. Suddenly from out of his depths comes the Light; the Realization of WHO MAN IS!

If the Jews will forgive me this license: There is a sense that the entire holocaust may have happened precisely so that ONE man, out of the entire planet, might have this ONE experience!

I know: You want to run back to the imagined 'safety' of your structure. This is normal. It is also an ILLUSION. If you look carefully you will see that it is FEAR that is ushering you back. Turn your mind into it; let it be the lift beneath your wings. That old structure with all of its stupid do's and don'ts, with all of its identifications of who is jew/christian/right/wrong/black/white/man/woman/evil/etc. is just the disintegrating cocoon clinging to your still damp butterfly wings! FLY, Mr. SEELEY, FLY! Even the attempt itself is enough!

Of course, in order to do this, you are going to have to look in the one place you have been forbidden by that very structure you so absolutely are guarding: AT YOU!

I love what Seth said: "Now is the Point of Your Power!" Pull your OWN personal Sword Excalibur from the Stone of your programmed ignorance, Mr. Seeley. Then we'll be talking the same language here. And we can have 'real' fun sparring with the 'real' weapon that will change the world and give it back to us, the Good Guys: Our Individual, Finally-Honed, Intent!

Thank you for expressing yourself in such a way that allowed for this opportunity.

With respect for all that is good and permanent in you,
Esclarmonde

P.S. One more thing: I don't expect you to 'BELIEVE' a word I say, Mr. Seeley. Indeed, don't believe a word ANYONE says: Go find your OWN personal truth, inside of you! That's where we've all found it!
