THE 12 BIGGEST LIFE SECRETS FORGOTTEN BY MANKIND

BY GILBERT ROSS 

The more I ponder about life, the more I come to one solid realisation: The biggest curse and predicament of modern Man is forgetfulness. Like a creeping malaise, forgetfulness has seeped through all of Man’s being and doing. Individually, collectively, historically or culturally, we are spellbound to forget.

We haven’t only forgot our past but also our place in the present and our responsibility of the future. On a personal level, our ego-based state of consciousness is on a mission to keep us in this state of forgetfulness – to break the link to our being as a whole and to the interconnected web of life and universal consciousness. On a collective level, this forgetfulness is perpetuated and reinforced by social and cultural means – mainly by being tranced into a reality of unconscious consumerism, inauthentic lifestyles and a materialistic mindset.

The brighter side of it is that we all have the chance to re-member and re-connect to ourselves and the universe at large. The power of remembering is at the centre of the spiritual path to self-discovery and realisation.

Here is a list of what I believe we have forgotten, or more importantly, a list of things to remember:

1. We forgot our place in the natural world:

In the last couple of hundred years we have detached ourselves from nature. We have exploited, ravaged, consumed and attempted to control nature to appease our greed driven by self-absorbed madness. We tried to distance ourselves from the natural circle of life. We forgot how to listen to and understand the natural rhythms and cycles of the earth – its signs and languages. We forgot to follow nature’s path and live in balance with it.

2. We forgot our connection to life and the cosmos:

By detaching ourselves from nature, we forgot that we are deeply connected to it and to the cycles of the universe. Some tribes on the outskirts of ‘civilisation’, and who still follow ancestral ways, have preserved this connection with respect and reverence. We, on the other hand have instilled a sense of separateness which drove us out of balance and in dis-ease. We forgot how all consciousness is interconnected and weaved into a delicate and beautiful dance.

3. We forgot our ancient wisdom:

We forgot our ancestral wisdom. In the quest to gain scientific knowledge through the rationalisation of our mind, we forgot the wisdom through the opening of our heart. We forgot the ancient stories and folk wisdom that was handed down from from seers and wise men of antiquity who lived in harmony with the universe.

4. We forgot our path and our dreams:

By stirring away from our inner path we forgot to dream the dream of life. More importantly we forgot how to awake in that dream and see our true nature as co-creators of life – as the dreamers. We forgot that we have the power to weave dreams and use our power of intention to direct those dreams into manifestation.

5. We forgot our purpose:

With too much chatter, noise and distraction in this dense reality we forgot what we came here to do. We forgot our purpose. We are caught in the mass trance of fabricated consensual reality. We lost sight of our authenticity, that inner spark that drives us towards our happiness and self-realisation. We forgot that we are here to be realised as spiritual beings embodied in a physical form and embedded in a congenial universe.

6. We forgot that everything is Love:

This is perhaps the deepest mystery of all that only some seers came to understand it as an all-embracing truth. That truth however is hidden somewhere deep inside of us. We knew it at some point but have lost touch with it. We forgot that everything is ultimately energy and consciousness and that love is the fundamental fabric of existence that runs through all energy and consciousness.

7. We forgot to Forgive:

By being made to believe that we are separate and disconnected from the others and from everything else, we forgot to forgive. In its deepest sense forgiveness is the act of reminding ourselves that we are one with everyone and everything and that there is no victim or perpetrator. It’s just all of us together moving together in a dynamic web we call life.

8. We forgot to be Free:

Remind yourself one thing everyday: You were made to be free.

We were born and raised in a ‘reality’ where freedom is only a concept. We were bound to the shackles of fear, misconceptions, false ideologies, material reward and held ransom to rules and laws laid down to safeguard the interest of the few. We were made to forget that we are free agents of change. We are free to be who we are without fear or guilt.

9. We forgot our real power:

Living in fear has made us forget how powerful we are. We forgot the massive power of our will and intention to change our reality. We have been tranced into sleepwalking and following the ready made signs like automatons.

10. We forgot our lessons from history:

If there is something that history has taught us is how fast we are at forgetting our lessons. Time and time again we keep on repeating the same mistakes, stuck in the same patterns of greed and self-destruction. We cannot be blamed individually for the mistakes done by humanity in the past but we are responsible as individuals to to remind ourselves of the past mistakes and pass it on to the collective psyche.

11. We forgot to be simple:

Human life got more complex and complicated. We are seduced by the glitter of more and not by the power of less. We forgot to be simple and the meaning of simplicity. Life is simple really. Simplicity means discarding all the inessential stuff and ideas that clutter the view to our life purpose and the other truths we have forgotten.

12. We forgot to trust, believe and wonder:

We lost our enchantment with the world. We forgot to be wondered by the miracle of life. We do not stand in awe at the majesty of it all anymore. Our skepticism and cynical view of the world has made us lose trust in ourselves and the magic of the universe. We forgot how to believe. This is perhaps the biggest tragedy of all. It weakened our spirit and impoverished our soul.

Three Solutions to the Death Problem

In this video, Alan Watts and Jason Silva discuss Ernest Becker’s three main solutions to the death problem: the religious solution, the romantic solution, and the acceptance that death is inevitable.

Surprise! Gay President Supports Gay Marriage

Compiled by henrymakow.com

1. Obama's Flip Flop on Gay Marriage ( See YouTube - http://youtu.be/N6K9dS9wl7U)

In the 2008 campaign, Obama said "marriage is the union between a man and a woman." As a "Christian," he believes it is also "a sacred union...God is in the mix." Does man of principle reverse his position from election to election? God is no longer "in the mix."

2. Obama is a member of an exclusive Chicago gay bathhouse. 

  "President Obama and his chief of staff Rahm Emanuel are lifetime members of the same gay bath house in uptown Chicago, according to informed sources in Chicago's gay community, as well as veteran political sources in the city.

The bath house, Man's Country, caters to older white men and it has been in business for some 30 years and is known as one of uptown Chicago's "grand old bathhouses." 

Obama began frequenting Man's Country in the mid-1990s, during the time he transitioned from a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School to his election as an Illinois State Senator in 1996. 

Man's Country appears to be a "one stop shopping" center for gay men. The club's website advertises steam rooms, "fantasy rooms," bed rooms, male strippers, adult movies, and lockers."   Wayne Madsen Report

3. Larry Sinclair claims he had gay sex and coccaine with Obama in 1999. Obama reminded him of "a hustler." 

4. Few Gays Opt to Marry -  1/10th of one per cent of the population.That's how many marry in places where it is legal.  For this segment, who represent less than 5% of all homosexuals, they are redefining the central rite of 98% of the population who are heterosexuals. Are heterosexuals too brain-dead to recognize that this is an egregious attack on their identity?

5. The promotion of homosexuality & Satanism are linked. Satanism is the inversion of the natural and spiritual order, i.e. what is healthy and true.  Satanism degrades people and denies their humanity by promoting sexual promiscuity.  

"The most notorious Satanist of the last century, Aleister Crowley (1875-1947). [Crowley died just three years before organized homosexual activism took root in America]. Crowley stated that he had gone over to "Satan's side" and wanted to become Satan's chief of staff. Crowley was a bisexual, and his "Abbey of Thelema" or sex temple in Italy was found to have biographical graffiti, depicting orgies that included little children. We document this from his own admirers in our documentary, The Kinsey Syndrome. He influenced the sexual revolutionary thought processes of everyone from Alfred Kinsey to Harry Hay. It is important to know that Crowley's end goal was the ushering in of the age of Horus and the coming Antichrist, the man of sin. He literally signed his name "The Beast 666."

Crowley stated that he was out to "sodomize the boys of England," and wanted his diabolical teachings to be "circulated among the young." He later stated that he would target the USA to push his satanic agenda." 

6. Society is Blind to Psy War on Heterosexuals   Makow: The demand for "homosexual rights" is really a ruse designed to make homosexual norms dominant in society.  This is part of the age-old Illuminati Jewish plan to destroy the institution of family and rewire human beings.(It's in the Communist Manifesto, 1848.) If heterosexuals don't determine societal norms, the tiny homosexual minority will, empowered by the Illuminati. As this happens, the majority will erode, become a minority and eventually disappear. 

7. Ultimately the goal is totalitarian world government.
Al Thompson: "Sexual immorality-fornication is being used as a weapon against civilized society.  The proponents of it, the media, the theater, the internet, and many other forms of publications, ... know that it will destabilize society to the point that it will be uncontrollable.  And out of the chaos and mayhem, the same old crackpot "elites" will take even more control over all of us.  They don't need physical chains, they have the mental chains of pornography, homosexuality, and child abuse.  They use it on us just as an enemy would use a nuclear bomb on an American city.  We can be caught off guard because we think its cute, funny, pleasurable, expression of freedom, or whatever.  But the sad fact is that sexual depravity is a slave chain.  Once this gets started in  a person's life, it's all downhill from there."

The AIDS Hoax

Prof. Peter Duesberg, left, says AIDS is really a cancer caused by a recreational drug used 

by gays, and is exacerbated by the popular AZT treatment.

There are a lot of conspiracy theories floating around about AIDS. The notion that AIDS is a money-making hoax is rarely discussed.

by David Douthit
(henrymakow.com)

This is the story of Peter Duesberg. Duesberg is a professor of molecular and cell biology at the University of California, Berkley. He is a cancer researcher who has formulated a theory that HIV does not cause AIDS.

According to Duesberg what is known as AIDS was originally caused by the use of Alkyl Nitrate in the homosexual communities. Alkyl Nitrate is a recreational drug that creates some euphoria, and also loosens the anal spincter making anal sex easier.

Hence its use by homosexuals. Alkyl Nitrate, like some other nitrates, causes Karposi Sarcoma, a virulent cancer. When homosexuals in the late 70's and early 80's started surfacing with Karposi Sarcoma the possibility of a new epidemic disease was proposed.

Causes for the new disease were explored. HIV, a retrovirus present in many of the homosexual community that had Karposi Sarcoma was identified and labeled the possible cause of AIDS.

The extremely toxic cancer drug AZT was resurrected from oblivion, because it had been banned for chemotherapy cancer use.

AZT was approved for treatment of HIV infection. AZT itself causes many disease conditions commonly associated with AIDS. Merely detecting HIV infection was cause for "treatment" with AZT.

Once AZT treatment was initiated a whole myriad of AIDS symptoms surfaced, not just Karposi Sarcoma. Lots of money was made from causing more disease conditions, which of course had to be treated with other expensive drugs as well.

AFRICA

Africa has suffered from many tropical diseases like malaria, and malnutrition because of wars, revolutions, and famine. These conditions were labeled as AIDS, even though HIV positive test results were not obtained in most cases.

The AIDS figures were always greatly inflated by this sleight of hand. This resulted in huge amounts of money allotted for AIDS research. Many "researchers" and pharmaceutical companies profited greatly.

Duesberg contends that HIV is a harmless retrovirus. That is why a person may be infected with HIV for years and never experience any symptoms associated with AIDS, until of course treatment with AZT is initiated.

Doctors will then say, "good thing we started treatment just in time as symptoms started to surface."

Huge sums were made from the AIDS hoax. It could never be "cured", just treated indefinitely at a high cost, and AZT caused many more disease conditions.

Duesberg's theory was totally ostracized by the scientific community, and personal attacks were made. It was the classic kill-the-messenger approach. Duesberg wrote a book "Inventing the AIDS Virus" that details his theory.

Duesberg's theory has never received much press even in conspiracy circles. I believe that is because it is probably the closest to the truth.

I wrote this article for anyone infected with HIV, which could be almost anyone homosexual or heterosexual, so that they could have necessary information before starting any AZT regime for "treatment".

I am not a homosexual, but I certainly do not wish any harm to come to anyone. Promoting the theory that AIDS is really an epidemic disease is the exact MO of the "Powers That Be" to keep the population in a perpetual fear state.

I know for a fact that drugs used to treat "Autism" actually cause many of the symptoms labeled "Autism". I have witnessed it with my own two eyes. That is going to be the topic of one of my subsequent articles.

Re: 4/12/12: "The AIDS Hoax":
http://www.henrymakow.com/the_aids_hoax.html

The comment by "R" 4/12/12 re what his wife learned 30 years ago from the gay activists THEMSELVES is a jewel of a truth worth shouting from the rooftops. He also mentioned:

"...making the general public feel guilty and "DOUBLE-MINDED" (the mental state of all who come to consciously accept that which they instinctively hate)." (caps added)

I remember well the progression from single-mindedness to the double-mind in the AIDS Scam:

1. First, the general opinion was basically that, "If you live a life of debauchery, you will reap what you sow." (Gal. 6:7) [1]

2. Then the fear propaganda re AIDS/HIV was poured on thick & we began hearing of care agencies, schools, businesses, whatever, refusing to allow HIV &/or AIDS people in their midst.

3. Step 2 was necessary so they could then turn the tide & begin "shaming" everyone with such (purposely manufactured) "fears" & calling them cruel, heartless, haters, etc.

4. Then they threw in a few celebrity case stories to seal the sentiment that "Not everybody is bad who gets AIDS" (Rock Hudson, that famous basketball guy, etc.)

5. Then, Politically Correct Public Acceptance (consensus) is reached... the "Six Step Attitudinal Change Plan" was complete.[2]

Violent Humanity

by Mark Sircus
The list of countries and cities disintegrating or unraveling because of violence, economic and political turmoil, lack of food and civil unrest is growing. Human violence is a very important subject at this particular moment in time. Violence has always been a basic part of human nature and we have a lot to be ashamed of.
It is a shame to find out that the most dangerous place for women and children is actually in their own homes—homes being the place where we actually find the most violence. Family life in our insane civilization has turned into a nightmare for way too many people, but then again we have had the same problems throughout history.
In the first part of this essay we will talk about the violence happening out there but at the end we will come back full circle to the many forms of intimate violence that betrays and abuses our deepest vulnerabilities. One would be astounded at the spectrum of human violence and how well that violence can be hidden. Some of the cruelest, most violent men in history are actually the ones who started the war on drugs—a war destined to destroy not only huge segments of society but entire nations as well.
Mexico is a nightmare of unprecedented dimensions unfolding in America’s own backyard. Mexico is descending into a bottomless pit of drug violence and civil war. Nearly a dozen people were shot to death in the Pacific coast resort of Acapulco. Authorities in the central state of Mexico arrested a suspected drug-gang leader who confessed to directly carrying out 300 homicides and ordering 600 others.

Governments & Cruelty

Syrian security forces swept through neighborhoods in a restive central city firing machine guns and pulling people from their homes in a series of arrests and killings. On the last day of July 2011, Syrian tanks, firing shells and machineguns, stormed the city of Hama on Sunday, killing 80 civilians. The Syrian president is just one more madman who thinks he has the right to have his men going around killing hundreds upon hundreds of people as the rest of the world watches in pathetic silence.
Two weeks later on Sunday, August 14, 2011, Syrian gunboats firing heavy machine guns pounded impoverished districts of Latakia, killing at least 19 people in a renewed assault on the Mediterranean coastal city, activists said. As the gunships blasted waterfront districts, ground troops backed by tanks and security agents stormed several neighborhoods. The sharp crackle of machine-gun fire and loud explosions could be heard across the city. Now the bullets are raining down on the people of Yemen.
Don’t get too comfortable—one day this kind of violence could come to a city near you. Even if you live in the first world and only have the occasional madman running around shooting people, someday it could be the police, national guard, homeland security, FEMA and even the army doing much the same.
Last month a riot tore through parts of north London’s deprived Tottenha neighborhood casting a pall over Britain’s capital. Eight officers were hospitalized during the rampage, with rioters torching a double-decker bus, destroying patrol cars and trashing a shopping mall. “This is just a glimpse into the abyss,” former Metropolitan Police Commander John O’Connor told Sky News television Sunday.

Thousands of rioters took to the streets in China, with some
smashing and burning vehicles, after a city official injured
a female cyclist. Last month, hundreds of people in another
southern Chinese city rioted after a policeman was reported
to have beaten up a one-legged fruit seller. The seller, who
had apparently protested against the confiscation of his
cart for illegal parking, later died of his injuries.
Sino Daily

Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said about the shooting massacre in Norway, “A paradise island has been transformed into a hell.” Erik Kursetgjerde described the panic on Utoeya when the gunman began shooting, “I heard screams. I heard people begging for their lives and I heard shots. He just blew them away. The killer, dressed as a policeman, would tell people to come over: ‘It’s okay, you’re safe, we’re coming to help you.’ And then I saw about 20 people come toward him and he shot them at close range.”

Some Hate Love

In an Afghan love story that flouted dominant traditions of arranged marriages and close family scrutiny, a romance between two teenagers of different ethnicities brought the beastly side out of these kids’ families and neighbors. A group of men spotted the couple riding together in a car, yanked them into the road and began to interrogate the boy and girl. Why were they together? What right had they? An angry crowd of 300 surged around them, calling them adulterers and demanding that they be stoned to death or hanged.
When security forces swooped in and rescued the couple, the mob’s anger exploded. They overwhelmed the local police, set fire to cars and stormed a police station. The riot, which lasted for hours, ended with one man dead, a police station charred and the two teenagers, Halima Mohammedi and her boyfriend, Rafi Mohammed, confined to juvenile prison. Ms. Mohammedi’s uncle visited her in jail to say she had shamed the family and promised that they would kill her once she was released.

Understanding Violence

Dr. Aletha Solter, Ph.D., founder and director of the Aware Parenting Institute says, “There are two basic conditions that produce violent tendencies in human beings. One condition is that the person has been hurt. A child who is spanked, hit, beaten, or threatened with violence will have a tendency to become violent himself. Sexual abuse and emotional neglect are also hurts that can lead to violent tendencies. The accumulation of minor hurts (stress) can lead to violent behavior as well. The anxieties, disappointments, and frustrations of childhood can build up and cause a child to hit or bite.
“The second basic condition is less well understood. The person has not been allowed to release the emotions resulting from the hurts. He has unresolved and unexpressed feelings about what he has experienced. Only then will he have a tendency to be violent towards others. Being the victim of violence and other distressing experiences breeds violence in the child only when the emotions are blocked and repressed. When this situation occurs, violence toward self or others is almost an inevitable outcome. Violence is a distorted expression of the person’s rage or terror in an environment where it is not safe to reveal or release strong feelings,” continued Solter.
Violence is tolerated and even glorified in most industrialized countries and is culturally linked to “appropriate” male behavior.

One of the greatest hidden forms of violence is the mass
drugging of children. Yet it’s perpetrated within schools,
doctors’ offices, foster homes and juvenile facilities daily.

Dr. John Monahan, Ph.D., Psychologist and Professor, School of Law, University of Virginia-Charlottesville, asks why so many Americans are afraid to walk home alone at night. He says, “Many biological factors have been nominated as candidates for causes of violence. Hormones like testosterone, transmitters in the brain like serotonin, and blood abnormalities like hypoglycemia are only a few that have been mentioned. Biological factors do not have to be hereditary. They could be caused by a head injury, poor nutrition, or environmental events, such as exposure to lead paint. Compared with Japan, a nation of roughly comparable industrialization with cities much more crowded than ours, the U.S. homicide rate is over five times higher, the rape rate is 22 times higher, and the armed robbery rate is an astounding 114 times higher.”

To prevent violence, we must first, stop perpetrating violence on children.
This means no spanking or hitting. It is important to know that children
need the most love and attention when they act the least deserving of it.
Dr. Aletha Solter

Pharmaceutical-induced violence

In 2006, David Crespi, a former banking executive with no criminal record or history of violence, killed his twin five-year-old daughters, stabbing them multiple times with a kitchen knife. Crespi was taking Prozac when he killed his daughters, along with the sleeping pill Ambien.

Modern psychiatry’s love affair with pharmaceutical drugs has turned psychiatrists into killers. Psychiatric medications are known to cause extremely violent thoughts and behavior in young males. Ten percent of Americans over age six take antidepressants.

In the United States we have seen similar shootings by men with a history of treatment with psychotropic drugs—typically SSRI antidepressants. These shootings have three things in common: 1) the shooters are young males, 2) the shooters exhibit a mind-numbed disconnect with reality, 3) the shooters have a history of taking psychiatric medications.

An estimated 2.2 million Americans are hospitalized each year for adverse drug reactions. Over 100,000 die from them.

Violence is normal for our race though most of it is hidden from plain sight. I am afraid that we are going into a new Dark Age where violence will grow exponentially again as it has before. The police and security forces around the world have trained heavily this past decade preparing for civil violence and disobedience. What will we do to protect our families?
Most of us fail miserably when it comes to protecting our loved ones from the violence of the main institutions of civilization, from governments and companies who love to bring harm to others with their poisons. Ninety percent of parents cannot even utter a cry of protest as the pediatric doctors inject vaccines laced with dangerous heavy metals and toxic chemicals. How many Americans understand and complain about the violence of water fluoridation? Somehow we have left ourselves vulnerable to massive abuse and violence

Defense Against The Psychopath

Why Is One Thoughtless?

The thinker thinks his thoughts through habit, through repetition, through copying, which brings ignorance and sorrow. Is not habit thoughtlessness? Awareness creates order, but it never creates habit. Settled tendencies only bring about thoughtlessness. Why is one thoughtless? Because to think is painful, it creates disturbances, it brings opposition, it may cause one's actions to go contrary to the established pattern. To think-feel extensionally, to become choicelessly aware may lead to unknown depths, and the mind rebels against the unknown; so it moves from the known to the known, from habit to habit, from pattern to pattern. Such a mind never abandons the known to discover the unknown. 

Realizing the pain of thought, the thinker becomes thoughtless through copying, through habit; being afraid to think, he creates patterns of thoughtlessness. As the thinker is afraid, his actions are born of fear, and then he regards his actions and tries to change them. The thinker is afraid of his own creations; but the deed is the doer, so the thinker is afraid of himself. The thinker is fear itself; the thinker is the cause of ignorance, of sorrow. The thinker may divide himself into many categories of thought, but the thought is still the thinker. The thinker and his efforts to be, to become, are the very cause of conflict and confusion.

What makes one person’s faith in an unseen power unshakeable and another’s unpredictable?

By DEEPAK CHOPRA

(When terror strikes as it did in New York on 9/11 ten years ago or at the Delhi High Court last week, for many of us, faith in a Divine power takes a beating. Read what DEEPAK CHOPRA has to say on this.)

Crises have a way of either bringing you closer to your faith (in God or religion) or alienating you from it. The 9/11 attacks did this to many of us who lost a dear one or who suffered other kinds of losses. Is faith nothing but a crutch for some and a way of justifying bitterness for others? What makes one person’s faith in an unseen power unshakeable and another’s unpredictable?

(Answer to Mary Rose, 55, New York City) You’ve phrased your first question so that it contains its own answer, and I agree with you. Faith can be the cover for a mind that stubbornly holds on to God or stubbornly refuses to accept the possibility of God. In most religions, the worshipper’s devotion was measured by holding on to faith in the face of anything. Skepticism and doubt were the marks of heresy. Freethinking was contrary to the dogma of the faith. In a secular age, the reverse position is almost as dogmatic.

Not to be skeptical is a mark of conformity and blind obedience. Open-mindedness is desirable, but it must be based on reason and facts, without regard for anything as unreliable as scripture or a wisdom tradition. One could take the word “faith” and replace it with “tradition” in your question with much the same meaning.

Your second question leads to a possible solution to this double obstacle. Dogmatic faith and dogmatic scepticism have something in common. Neither is based on actual knowledge about the nature of God, or the nature of the things related to God, such as the soul, the afterlife, and faith itself.

All faiths were founded on direct experience of the Divine, and their intention was to pass that experience on. Over time, this original intention, whether it led to nirvana, the kingdom of God, or liberation of the soul, dwindled into something much lower, the demand for blind faith.

The solution is to return to the original intention and seek a personal experience that would validate faith — a project that has faced every generation of believers and non-believers alike.

Faith is a form of hope, and hope is unfulfilled unless real experience arrives. Then experience can be the basis of true knowledge. I realise that I’m compressing a deep set of ideas that we could discuss for a long time. But the essence is clear. Turn inward to find the root that faith springs from. When you find it, faith will no longer be a crutch, an excuse, or a desperate hope.

Do you think the theory of rebirth is a clever device to make us feel better when we lose someone — so we think she will return in another life? Does belief in rebirth make it easier to bear the loss of loved ones?

(Answer to Sabina, 30, Lucknow) Human beings have always feared the boundary that separates life and death. We grieve when someone crosses that boundary, and our grief is amplified by dreadful thoughts. What if death is annihilation? What if torments and punishment await us? Can anything be trusted other than the reality that greets the five senses? Every faith wants to subdue these suppositions and at the same time offer reassurance so that fear will be calmed. So, yes, rebirth serves in that way, just as the promise of Heaven does.

Today, research into reincarnation has yielded a set of startling data. The most convincing consists of children’s accounts in which they remember their last lifetime. Skeptics are not persuaded, of course, but what would change if there was general acceptance of reincarnation? Societies already exist where the doctrine has been accepted for centuries, and there seems to be no marked benefit.

None of us communicates with our last or next lifetime. Perhaps there is a slight reduction in the fear of death, but arguably, religions which promise a reward in Heaven also reduce the fear of death slightly.

The solution is to erase the iron boundary between life and death, which St Paul referred to as “dying unto death”. If a person can experience pure consciousness, the source of the mind and its thoughts, then fear gives way to limitless peace. Even a taste of this peace does a great deal to support the position that consciousness embraces everything.

That embrace is life, creativity, intelligence, and evolution. Once you realise that these are permanent aspects of Creation, the boundary between life and death dissolves. All of existence is a single thing, the unfolding of consciousness from its source in the absolute. I’ve simplified it, but if you look closely, finding out who you are, an expression of eternal consciousness, resolves this difficult issue.

If we all turned the other cheek, when slapped, would we solve the problem of terrorism? Didn’t M K Gandhi say that tolerating injustice is as bad as perpetrating it? But he also said an eye for an eye would make the whole world go blind. And where does forgiveness figure in all of this?

(Answer to Shaji Thomas, Dubai) There has always been a war between two teachings, non-violence and a just revenge. Holding fast to the doctrine of non-violence, whether expressed as “turn the other cheek” or ahimsa, seems desirable to any sane adult. The dark fruit of war and crime has poisoned human existence for long.

Yet complete pacifism runs contrary to psychology. Each of us longs to strike out against our enemies, as small children will do automatically unless they are held back when they’re angry. We believe in justice, and yes, evil flourishes when good men do nothing.

It would appear that this war will never end. But let’s look at where it originated, which is inside ourselves. Human beings have a divided nature, and we struggle to obey both sides. Since the struggle has led nowhere but to more violence on a wider scale than ever, it’s sensible to seek a different solution. As always, the level of the solution doesn’t lie at the level of the problem.

Struggle breeds more struggle; violence leads to more violence. The world’s wisdom traditions have been preoccupied with relieving the kind of suffering that violence brings. Their answer, if I can reduce it to a common teaching, is to seek unity inside oneself. The end of the divided self is the only answer to violence, and the answer appears one person at a time.

Today, the same as five centuries ago or fifty centuries, the deepest purpose of life is to rise to a level of consciousness where the fear and anger born of duality are transcended. Once transcendence is experienced, you are no longer the pacifist or the warrior. Something new unfolds that cannot be predicted when you are still caught up in the struggle.

A contentment not of the mind

Is not discontent essential, not to be smothered away, but to be encouraged, inquired into, probed, so that with the understanding of what is there comes contentment? That contentment is not the contentment which is produced by a system of thought; but it is that contentment which comes with the understanding of what is. That contentment is not the product of the mind -the mind which is disturbed, agitated, incomplete, when it is seeking peace, when it is seeking a way away from what is. And so the mind, through justification, comparison, judgment, tries to alter what is, and thereby hopes to arrive at a state when it will not be disturbed, when it will be peaceful, when there will be quietness. And when the mind is disturbed by social conditions, by poverty, starvation, degradation, by the appalling misery, seeing all that, it wants to alter it; it gets entangled in the way of altering, in the system of altering. But if the mind is capable of looking at what is without comparison, without judgment, without the desire to alter it into something else, then you will see that there comes a kind of contentment which is not of the mind.
 

The contentment which is the product of the mind is an escape. It is sterile. It is dead. But there is contentment which is not of the mind, which comes into being when there is the understanding of what is, in which there is profound revolution which affects society and individual relationship.

Feminism Tastes Bitter after Job Ends

Sasha Spencer provides an insightful analysis of how feminism programmed her to fail. 

"I can now lament at leisure my squandered youth and beauty.  I seem to have done it all backwards." 

                                                                               

By Sasha Spencer  www.henrymakow.com

As a girl growing up in the American Midwest in the 1970's, I felt there was no social approval attached to the traditional feminine role.

Being a wife and mother had no merit.  My ultra-feminine British mother had nothing to teach me.

A naive media sponge, I told my mother: "You need to be more assertive and less co-dependent."  I assured her that everything she had to teach me about womanhood was outdated.

The same applied to my very Victorian grandmother.  "My husband can fix his own damn dinner!" I snapped. " I will have more important things to do!"

No longer could I look to them for direction.  This was uncharted territory but I was sure of one thing:  I was chosen for greatness.

In my youthful ignorance, I imbibed every issue of Ms. Magazine. Liberated from man and oppressive roles, I felt I had the key to happiness.  I would prove myself in a "man's world." 

I fell for the Rockefeller-funded B.S.   I was an angry young woman and the problem was men!

In spite of all this, I married at age 26.  My first husband was a brilliant young doctor finishing his residency at the Mayo Clinic.  Honestly, I couldn't have asked for more in a mate. A great provider. Treated me very well. I was set for life!

But this wasn't enough for an angry young feminist.  I had to prove myself and it had to be great.  Deep down, I never felt completely worthy of my great find in a man.  I had to make it harder on myself. 

Therefore, I embarked on my "career" in media, acting and modeling.  I was rarely home.  The marriage ended in my early 30's. I was off to make my glamorous fortune!

I was nine-years single, had scores of exciting men to date and a few minor television and film experiences under my belt.  I then landed my dream job.  As Executive Director of an Impressionist Painters Society,  I was off to France.  I began the journey of my life.   I was living and working with the family and heir to a famous French painter.  My dream had finally come true and it did not disappoint.

JOBS DON'T LAST

But all good things come to an end, however, and so did the job and my love affair with all things French.  By this time, I had the nice house, car, beautiful artwork, clothes, boyfriends. I was indeed at my most glamorous. 

I had never been the type to dream of a husband and children. But after the dream job ended, I began to long for something lasting.  I wanted a family.

As fate would have it, I agreed to meet my childhood sweetheart in Houston.  We had not seen each other since we were teens and surprisingly, I had business right in the city.

Soon after, my childhood beau and I fell in love a second time and quickly tied the knot.  He was a former football player, the last of the "Marlboro Men."

Less than one year later, on my 40th birthday, I was shocked to find myself pregnant.  Alas, I had already decided to leave my husband.  It wasn't working. He was scary and verbally abusive.

In truth, I had no idea how to be a wife to my two husbands.  But I did know how to be glamorous and exciting!  I thought these husbands were there to serve and support me and my success, whatever that was! I sure didn't know. 

I was confused by my feminist indoctrination. I was indoctrinated to think  being a wife and mother was a degrading situation. It had no societal validation.   I wanted glamor and success.

REFLECTIONS ON MY INDOCTRINATION

I had allowed myself to go in a direction that always felt false.  But I was afraid to obey standards and rules deeply rooted in the evil "Patriarchy."

Feminism was no place for a fresh-faced young woman like me, naive and wholesome.  But I was hypnotized and lulled to sleep by the popular culture and the demands of the era.

This false agenda perverted my natural feminine instincts. Instead of feeling valued for being a wife and mother, it fostered instead a quest to prove my worthiness in masculine terms.

My worthiness now meant being compared with a male.  Which one of us had the ultimate right to exist and thrive in this world?  I mean, it's a competition now, right?

You can't love someone you are competing with. You can't love yourself

when you deny your own nature.

WAKING FROM THE EVIL SPELL

I can now lament at leisure my squandered youth and beauty.  I thought it would last forever and a day.  Or, at least until I was tired of it.  Don't we all?

I seem to have done it all backwards.

Instead of painfully questing for my intrinsic worth as a female, I could have been building a strong family unit, the strength of which could now shield me from the vicissitudes of 21st century life.

We have all suffered from a cruel deception.  Many choose not to look.  However, the heterosexual bond has been the source and sustaining force for humanity.

I now clearly see the utter destruction of the human family.  The battle of the sexes did not serve us.

The Satanist bankers knew what they were doing when they drove a stake between men and women and diminished millions of lives.

Illuminati Use Women to Destroy Men

"You're not dangerous," I told Garry. "A man has a right to be master of his domain. Quit beating yourself up."
 
by Henry Makow, Ph.D. 

"The mutual relations between the two sexes seems to us to be at least as important as the mutual relations of any two governments in the world." - Thomas Babington Macaulay - Historian & British Secretary of State for War, 1840 
 

When I was young, there was a saying: "Behind every successful man is a woman."

Women used to empower men. How? By accepting their leadership. By being First Mate to their Captain.

Women benefited from this arrangement. In marriage, they shared in the fruits of a man's achievements.  

The Illuminati realized that this process can work both ways. Instead of empowering men, women can emasculate them by challenging their power. By teaching women to usurp male power, the Illuminati created a new breed of feckless males incapable of concerted political action. Divide and Conquer.

Recently, I saw close up how this process works. A friend, "Garry," is broken up because his common-law wife left him. The split came after a "domestic assault." He pushed her. She wasn't hurt but she might have been scared. She called the police.

As a result, they were physically separated by law, and the relationship ended. I don't like this policy but it does end a lot of dysfunctional relationships.

 A DYSFUNCTIONAL COUPLE

She had the power. He felt guilty for being resentful and angry about it. He was sorry for pushing her and thought his anger was a terrible thing. This reflects his indoctrination. His striking out was a natural result of an untenable situation.

He related a Jane Goodall documentary about chimpanzees. The male chimps sometime go haywire, screaming and yelling and throwing things. The women and children cower in fear. Then the storm passes and they're all nurturing and welcoming again. He felt that as a male, he was like the chimps. He had this evil demon within him.

"You've got it all wrong," I said. "Those male chimps were asserting their dominance. Once they did that, they could go back to being loving husbands and fathers. Don't believe what the counselors tell you. You're not dangerous. A man has a right to be master of his domain. Quit beating yourself up."
Garry had felt he had no home. His ex insisted that her 20-something daughter live with them. She had her way in spite of Garry's objections. This daughter made sure everyone was miserable if she was, which was most of the time.  It was Garry's house. The woman and daughter lived rent-free. 

Garry had needed to be firm at the outset. "Neither of you will live here." Instead he went to a men's group called "Evolve"  to learn to "deal with his anger." There it was all "shame and blame" the man.  He needed to control his anger and be more accommodating.  

He was so impressed that he got his ex to attend the women's chapter of the same government-funded agency. There the message was designed to empower women.  "Women are an oppressed minority.  Rise up against those evil males." (This is typical Communist 'consciousness raising' i.e. indoctrination.) 

His ex became very argumentative, especially when drinking. After their enforced separation, she had him arrested for driving by to look at his house.

To her credit, she eventually moved out. But all the furniture was hers. She had forced him to get rid of his. Now he's rattling around an empty house trying to rebuild his life.  He let his friendships lapse.

Garry is a mild mannered and capable 55-year-old man. But when he related what his ex had done, his body language was that of a child. Any man who is ruled by a woman becomes a child or a woman.   

CONCLUSION

You probably know someone like Garry. If you don't, get a movie called "Flannel Pajamas."    The writer-director Jeff Lipsky tells the story of his marriage. Compare Jeff at the beginning and the end. At the beginning, he is powerful and generous. At the end, he is a mouse. He gave away his power and now she didn't love him any more. Women lose interest in men who try to buy their love, or love in a self-negating way.

Heterosexual relationships are about the exchange of female (worldly) power for male power expressed as love. Men want power. Women want love. Marriage is the exchange of the two, sealed by exclusive sex.

The Illuminati have sabotaged this exchange by exaggerating woman's power and diminishing man's. Men are brainwashed to think romance and sex are the sin qua non for happiness. Many become paralyzed, unable to approach a desirable woman. Too late they learn the real benefit to a man of a woman is exaggerated by a factor of five.

Paradoxically, this return to reality enables a man to secure female companionship. To their credit, woman are attracted to men with self respect.

Heterosexual relationships are about a man getting a woman to do what he wants. This is called "courtship" i.e. proving that his aims are worth supporting and he will protect and nurture her.

When he earns this trust (tantamount to her love,) she surrenders her worldly power to him. This is the heterosexual contract: power for love. (Of course, the contract is voided if he doesn't keep his end of the bargain. i.e. love. Thus he will consult her. Depending on mutual rapport and  competence, power might be divided or delegated.)

Men should project power and never show weakness. They should establish their authority from the get-go. A woman can have power or love. But she can't have both. This is the litmus test. If she doesn't agree, move on. You'll save yourself a lifetime of grief.
