CONNECTING ECONOMIC, MEDICAL, POLITICAL, SOCIAL, SPIRITUAL & TECHNCAL THEMES
ALL SUMMARIES WILL OMIT DETAILS, LINKS AND OTHER FACTUAL PROOFS. Nothing occurs in a vacuum except for creation itself. Anyone unaware of or disconnected from today's news is probably in isolation or on vacation. The number of issues highlighted by individual interests and rotated into the plethora of problems and spotlight on multimedia channels is overwhelming. A day of reckoning is inevitable. This is being called "The Metacrisis." The term in its simplicity means a crisis of crisis. This is not new; it is now exponentially amplified. In this post we will attempt to combine and consolidate the conduct, causes and consequences behind many of the crisis we deal with today. Although it is complicated, we will attempt to simplify both the causes and effects. Once again, nothing we say here is written in stone. We take no credit for the source only the synthesis. Although this was not originally intended to be such, as it is being researched and composed, we must come to the conclusion that it is a predictive post. A prediction or forecast implies that some methodology is working behind having a knowledge of something before it comes into being, existence or happens. We are not prophets in the sense of foretelling the future. We are simply interpreters of the handwriting everyone can see written on the wall. The Bible has a 100 percent accuracy rate. It is what we use as a basis for our flawed insights. Spiritual insight trumps all of science. Predictive markets like "POLYMARKET" function outside of spiritual insight but still have impressive success rates. What would happen if algorithms were based upon the spirit in which we operate and the systems we use to forge our destiny. This goes far beyond the zeitgeist or spirit of our time. To parse our economic, medical, political, social, spiritual and technical ecosystems into one collective theme is difficult at best. Many of our patrons will continue to see what we present through the rose-colored glasses they wear. Spiritual discernment taches us to understand that how we see things often takes precedent over what we see. We know in part and speak what we believe in part. Perspective is the bias of our human condition. The "spirit" in which we accept and deal with things is often indicative of the things we will allow to be presented and promoted to us! The very thought of "things," that others even contemplate, will be offensive to our sensibilities based on the standards of our ethical and moral beliefs. This directly relates to how we value life. For example, the very idea of murdering someone for any reason should be questioned on the basis of the commandment that says, "thou shall not kill!" No interpretation is needed to understand this commandment. It's plain and simple, don't kill. Is there ever a reason to kill? Remember this, "WHATEVER SPIRITS WE INDULGE WE ALLOW." THE BIG PICTURE The BIG picture is often difficult to see. One of the reasons is that it is so broad or wide that being a part of it or too close to it obscures the full perspective. No one can see their own eyeball. The BIG picture often takes us full circle. It's amazing how civilizations that once worshipped the sun now hide from it. This is similar to the story of the blind men and the elephant. The parable of the blind men and an elephant is a story of a group of blind men who had never come across an elephant before and attempted to find out what the elephant was like by touching it. Each blind man felt a different part of the animal's body. They each described the animal based on their limited experience. Of course, their descriptions differed from one another. In some versions each one suspected the others of dishonesty and in others they came to blows. The moral of the parable is that humans have a tendency to claim absolute truth based on their limited, subjective experiences. As a result, we tend to discount and minimize other people's limited, subjective experiences which may be equally true. This is an ancient Indian parable. Many of us are highly opinionated. Opinions are expressions of beliefs based on a judgement or view we perceive about something that is formed from partial, not full, facts or knowledge. It is easy to rush to hasty conclusions when we say, "that's all I need to know." There is always a bigger picture and sometimes it spans experiences that have occurred over time which we are unaware of and have no way of considering. Most of us are unaware and unexposed to the BIG picture. Big business, Billionaires, Financial entities, Higher government officials and most levels of law enforcement get exposed to a bigger and wider view. What is the reason behind so much of the drug trafficking into and throughout the United States? Does not demand drive supply? Should we operate government policy based on real estate acquisitions or the control of Greenland as a strategic necessity? What are the side effects of American values on the rest of the world? There is a BIG picture behind all of the little things we experience concurrently and consecutively. Why are the BIG Epstein files due to be released so slow coming, so small and so redacted? Are there other high officials, PRESIDENTS and prominent people involved? Does the BIG picture in geopolitics suggest that the pie has already been cut into specific sizes among specific rulers and wealth elite? Does it suggest that what we see playing out before us is how they decided for the world to be divided? Are African nations, Greenland, South America, Ukraine and other countries pieces in a new balance of world power? The BIG biologic and computer picture suggests that "gain of function" and "artificial intelligence" are two different sides of the same coin called advancements in technology. Teaching viruses and other pathogens to evolve quickly and unnaturally in the name of research is almost the same as teaching a computer to learn all that we know and then teach itself. The BIG geopolitical picture suggests that while economies in Africa, Greece, other countries and continents were struggling, China's "Belt and Roads" initiative had a significant effect. Their investments helped to rescue societies in dire straits while the "west" simply watched. The BIG economic and trade picture suggests that while the "west" was using "SWIFT" to financially cripple the banks of governments who did not comply with or violated western dictates, these countries devised ways around it. Frozen "Russian" assets did not cripple their economy. They circumvented the worlds firmly established "debt based financial systems" through, barter, crypto and other trading organizations like "BRIC." The BIG military buildup in the Caribbean suggests that the ongoing drug trade interventions are only a smokescreen for flexing and preserving our economic, military and political influence in the western hemisphere. We have a major shipping port to protect and an aggressive agenda to follow which is designed to maintain our dominance close to home. Does the "BIG PICTURE" suggest that the war on drugs is now focusing more on the source and suppliers than the pushers and end users? Where does the coercion that encourages and/or forces American's to do drugs come from? What make drug addiction so affordable? Does it not stand to reason that the richest nation with the most resources and the most agencies managing them, to be the easiest target for addiction, corruption and greed? Let's face it, the "spirit of greed" is in operation from Wall Street to the White House and this is nothing new! Why are the majority of our elected official lawmakers in Washington D.C. millionaires? The sad fact of the matter is that seeing one cockroach means that there are many others. Spirits do not operate according to party affiliation, culture, ethnicity, geography, nationality or race. Spirits can and do take advantage of our divisive tendencies and the nuances we use for separation. This is how the "spirit of corruption" operates. Corruption like rust spreads across everything it comes in contact with. This means that finding corruption at the highest levels of any organization comes with an infectious effect. Apart from being blind or brainwashed, we all know and can see the obvious effects of high level association within low level assimilation. Corruption is a corrosive cross-contamination that infectiously operates across all levels. There are both psychological and spiritual tactics of distraction and diversion at work all around us! We should not be naive to the purging processes designed to expose lower hanging decaying fruit while protecting higher levels of rotting on the same tree. We should not be naive to the purging processes designed to expose lower hanging decaying fruit while protecting higher levels of rotting on the same tree. The immediate BIG PICTURE obviously includes more people "being disappeared," missing or vanishing from the worldwide radar. Expect more "so-called" suicides with more wars and rumors of war. The "BIG PICTURE" helps us to take our own personal biases into account. The "BIG PICTURE" can help us recognize when "sunk cost fallacies" keep our "neocortex" from facing the inevitable now that generally override our "amygdala" of an impractical future. This aphorism plainly shows how cognitive biases work. Our ability to exercise rationale and reason in the present, over the feelings and emotions of the future, tie tomorrow's destiny to yesterday's decisions. It takes wisdom to decipher the handwriting on the wall visible to us all. Remember that when the elephants fight and go on a rampage, it is the seemingly insignificant grass that gets trampled underfoot! THE FACTS AND THE FRAMINGTODAY THE "BIG PICTURE" WE PRESENT WILL SPAN THOUGHTS, REALMS, SPHERES, TERRITORIES AND BELIEFS. AS ALWAYS, OUR VIEW WILL BE PRESENTED FROM A SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVE. HOW WE ACKNOWLEDGE AND INCLUDE GOD IN ALL OF TODAY'S MATTERS IS CRITICAL. PROPER CONTEXT YEILDS EVER MORE PRECISE CLARITY. THE PRINCIPLES BEHIND HOW SPIRITS OPERATE AND MANIFEST ALONG WITH HOW WE RATIONALIZE AND REASON ARE TWO OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT FACTORS IN HOW LIFE UNFOLDS. WE MUST BE AWARE OF BOTH THE NATURAL AND SPIRITUAL PUPPET MASTERS THAT MANIPULATE US! THIS THEME HAS BEEN AND CONTINUES TO BE CENTRAL TO ALL OF OUR POSTS. THIS MESSAGE IS ABOUT HOW TO INTERPRET THE MUDDLE. NEW ADVANCEMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY WILL NOT SAVE US, ONLY GOD CAN DO THAT! FOLLOWERS THAT LISTEN TO OUR SUMMARIES CANNOT UNHEAR WHAT THEY SAY. READERS OF THESE WORDS CANNOT UNKNOW THE KNOWLEDGE THEY DELIVER. WE ARE NOT DESIGNED TO FORGET. THERE WILL BE TIMES WHEN WE WILL HAVE DIFFICULTY RECALLING THINGS BUT THEY ARE STILL SOMEWHERE WITHIN. THIS IS WHY SO MANY STRUGGLE WITH FORGIVNESS. THE NOTION THAT WE CAN FORGIVE AND FORGET IS IRRATIONAL. FORGIVENESS INVOLVES RESOLUTION WITHOUT RETALIATION OR REVENGE. THE BIG PICTURE WE PRESENT IS NOT NECESSARILY PRETTY. THIS IS A WAR. THERE WILL BE CASUALTIES, FIGHTERS AND VICTIMS, THERE ARE NO OTHER CATEGORIES! THIS SPIRITUAL WARFARE IS REAL. UNFORTUNATELY, BY MOST, IT IS RARELY RECOGNIZED... When it comes to dealing with differences about issues and our opinions, we all tend to frame things through a narrative consistent with our personal beliefs and convictions. Many people think that new human discoveries are actually new. In reality there is nothing really new under the sun. Just because we have become aware of something does not make it new! Columbus did not discover America it was already here. Our knowledge of things that exist or existed is just that. The things we come across and unearth are not ours. Inheritance is God's gift to us. Ownership is a myth. We bring nothing into the world, and it is certain we cannot take anything out. We can make claims and patent discoveries, but our inventions and innovations are simply a by-product of our human nature. Consider the fact that a perfect God created a perfect environment (world) for a perfectly created man, perfectly. WE WERE MADE PERFECTLY, NOT BUILT TO BREAK! Perfect is without defect or flaw. So, it stands to reason that the only possible change perfect can transition to is imperfection. We carry the traits of our parents. Therefore, we tend to be like our father who made us. Genetically we inherit and are predisposed to being creative. Creativity comes with a responsibility to use the things we develop and invent to benefit all of mankind rather than for personal gain. Why do we manufacture bombs and bullets? What is the purpose of competition and conquest? Have we corrupted and perverted the very cause of our existence? THE CIRCLE AND CYCLES OF LIFELife is an interconnected collection of ongoing activities events and existences simultaneously interacting in an individual but interdependent manner. It may be difficult to see how "fire" has anything to do with "water" because they are polar opposites, but they do coexist in ways many people are unaware of. History does not repeat itself, but it does mirror and resemble the past. Life is filled with patterns. Light and darkness correspond to circadian rhythms, Fibonacci sequences appear in nature with plant structures, animal patterns, and cosmic formations. They are even applied in technical analysis for investing. The symmetry found in the wings of butterfly's speak to these phenomena. Yin and Yang represent complementary forces that are opposites yet interconnected. True patterns always reveal repetitions with purpose and guiding rules. Life is not just random repeating occurrences. Patterns always follow a certain logic that may not be obvious to us until we are enlightened or they are revealed. The age-old question to the meaning of life is obvious through spiritual eyes. Enlightenment simply means the eyes have been opened. We were born with them open but most of us were never taught to develop them and they gradually kept closing. By the time we fully developed or natural senses, we became so dependent upon them that we failed to couple them with our spiritual senses and just called it "intuition." THE COMPLEXITY OF THE UNIVERSE AND ITS INHABITANTSIt should be obvious to most of us that universally life in general is a complex conglomerate of things. "There is more to be seen than can ever be seen and more to do than can ever be done." This is why science has divided itself into multiple branches such as natural sciences like astronomy, biology, chemistry and physics, social sciences like economics, psychology and sociology, formal sciences like logic and mathematics, even applied sciences like engineering and medicine. Unfortunately, spiritual sciences like angels, creation, and supernatural realms have been left to religious beliefs and superstitions. Because the subject matter of existence is so vast mankind has segmented life into these sciences to better study them. Each branch is filled with multiple nuances that can cover a lifetime. Although these sciences have been separated, they should not be Siloed. These categories intersect and overlap. For instance, pressure has a direct relationship with a vacuum as does flesh with spirit. The one characteristic all of existence and life have in common and exchange is energy. There is no action, activity, conversation or occurrence of any kind that does not involve energy. We define energy in terms of ability, capacity, interaction, motion, potential and power. Energy is a property of all known existing life and matter. Let's consider energies' effect from an economic and financial perspective. The value of anything is measured by its worth. We place value and ascribe worth based on standards that exclude energy! Value is subjective; it is based on what anyone is willing to consider in exchange for something else they have. Worth is intrinsic; it is the true measure of something based on real and fundamental factors. Price equals value is a shortsighted and simplistic economic myth. A "value proposition" in marketing is a concise statement of actual benefits. What cannot be bought or purchased like air, eco-systems, forests, rain, sun and water are considered extrinsic externalities. These forms of energy are not given a "market price" until we exploit them and extract value out of them. The rain forests become more valuable as we chop them down. The oceans, mountains and valleys grow in price, value and worth as we extract the foods, fruit, metals, minerals, oil and other resources for our benefit from them. The energy already in them is not usually priced. The energy required to "rape" and use them for our purposes, good or bad, is the energy that's priced in. Even unseen energy has value and sooner or later we will pay the cost for ignoring it. Does the outrageous rising cost of potting soil and peat moss reflect the ongoing deforestation in the Brazilian wilderness? SCIENCE AND SPIRIT IS NOT A PARADOXWe live in highly scientific and technical world. As a result, we are continually being bombarded with numerous emerging technologies. Unfortunately, our oldest and most powerful technology is still being underutilized. There is a scientific and technical side to faith as well as a spiritual side to science. Although most people separate the two, they are intricately intertwined together. The "power of mind" connects us to God, the universe and one another. The application of science describes the energy or force behind that connection. Faith is not only a technique but also a technology that ALWAYS works, because faith is. When we apply or exercise a faith that does not work, it means that we are not utilizing real faith. We do not need faith to work (it always does) we need to work faith! The "way" faith works has never changed. There is a scientific and technical side to religion as well as a spiritual side to science. Although most people separate the two they are intricately intertwined together. Everything in the universe exists in a manner that at some minuscule level impacts EVERYTHING else. Jesus introduced and represented a revolutionary scientific way of thinking, saying and doing. Some of the same results achieved by science and medicine today were reportedly demonstrated by Jesus in a day and time where superstitious, mysticism and magical beliefs were logically infused with science and religion. The scientific method is an empirical method of acquiring knowledge that has characterized the development of science since at least the 17th century. Most of our learned beliefs are supported by tradition, superstition, science or religion. But in reality, it's not the system we use as much as the accuracy of the source. The murky relationship between the unknown, the mysterious, the mystical and the magical can lead us to questionable and irrational conclusions. ALL ENERGY HAS SPIRITUAL ORIGIN Although many people's present mindset is stuck on separating science and spirit, we should see them as connected in terms of energy. Thought is a form of energy and spirit is that energy's source. Science is the systematic study of behaviors and the structures they affect. Yes, we should be able to say that science is actually the proof that the spirit world does exist! It stands to reason that if these two realms exist then at some level they interact and are interrelated. Our aim and desire here is an attempt to describe, not define, some of those relationships. We must first accept that there is no such thing as an accident or random event. Destiny, fate, happenstance, karma and luck appear to operate and are embraced as a means to define and clarify what we cannot explain. The application and manifestations of science and spirit are interrelated. All things are interrelated and occur coincidentally in life. Pandemics, epidemics and other endemic characteristics are not random events that occur without warning. They are a by-product of societies self-inflicted vulnerabilities. It is the structures and systems of our functioning society that gives rise to the very existence of most of our man-made calamities. Think about it; without cars and trucks there would be few traffic accidents and without planes there would be no plane crashes, but without modern transportation the distribution of food, goods and services would be dramatically different. Overall, we cannot say that it would be better or worse, only different. This is why it is important to consider the effect of our advancements on the delicate balance within this shared bubble called the atmosphere. It always comes down to sowing and reaping, also known as cause and effect. We share in the cause of whatever affects us all. There is a science to spirituality which integrates all of the individual sciences into a unified system that describes our relationship in the universe. Conventional science falls short of defining paranormal phenomena and inexplicable mysteries. Even scientist are forced to use descriptive labels like "Black Holes" when the evidence only reveals a "blank slate." There is a science and order to every dimension of the universe including the spiritual realms. What we need to understand is that not only are we subject to the laws of these realms, but we can also use these laws to manipulate effects and operate cause in our realm. If we understand what is behind all universal order and how it operates, we can add our individual patch to the quilt of life. With this insight we have the capacity to create our own virtual garden of Eden. We can now work with the laws of cause and effect which are at the core of all phenomena. Only by embracing this truth will we be able to make scientific sense out of how spiritual cause manifests natural effects Let's face it, order is not accidental. Either there is or was an author, force, energy, plan, purpose and power behind life; or it's just a random, arbitrary, indiscriminate and haphazard occurrence of events that operate without connection or control. We believe that nothing happens in a vacuum except creation. Everything that exists is partially defined by its relationship to everything else. Is it possible that our individual freedom of thought, expressions and actions considered personal choice effects more than just ourselves? Does not the operation of the universe effect all the species within it? Isn't it obvious that there are other realms besides the one we exist in? It is not unusual to acknowledge the existence of spirit. Both religion and superstition have a spiritual component to them. Our belief in a spiritual realm may be impacted by experiences, indoctrination or other non-empirical evidence. However, somehow, we intuitively believe in it. Most energy is invisible. Light travels in waves and is one of the few forms of energy visible to the human eye. Gravity, magnetism, warmth, cold, wind, electricity, pressure, sound and radio waves are all evidenced by their physical manifestations but cannot be seen. An idea has no physical form until it is expressed verbally, embraced in our invisible minds and acted upon. History has shown us that a thought or point of view transmitted from a single individual can influence, contaminate and/or permeate the consciousness of multitudes. It is impossible to kill a thought or destroy an idea. We may refute, reject or suppress them by burning books and murdering people but the idea can live on and inspire a nation. All of creation is a manifestation of spiritual energy exercised in the natural realm of existence. Whether we believe in or acknowledge a source or originator of that manifestation makes no difference. The creation is the evidence of the creator. All perceptible existence must have a source of origin, it is undeniable. If we can identify with the "power of words" to cause mental anguish, the "power of stress" to cause physical illness and the "power of weather" to affect our mood; surely, we can relate to the "power of speech" to create matter. Although we "ARE" spiritual beings we tend to operate in the realm or state we perceive ourselves to be in. No physical evidence or logical reasoning has power to change an embraced belief. What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away. The things we embrace that "appear" to be, regardless of fact, seemingly feel better then believing in invisible forces. Some of our beliefs arise from illogical conclusions not facts. Only enlightenment can conquer embraced deception. Awareness precedes illumination. Our familiar beliefs create credible, even if incorrect, comfort zones. The lowest hanging fruit is the first to be picked. Meaning the simplest solutions get first consideration. Could this be why so many of us seem to pay so little attention to our spiritual faculties. We were birthed as spiritual beings but instead of nurturing it we abandoned it. We primarily focus on touch, taste, smelling, seeing and hearing, our visible tangible sensory faculties. We use our intellectual invisible intangible faculties like perception, reason, intuition, memory, will and imagination but they work in the background. When we bring them to the forefront we become in a better balance with the universe. Energy is developed, directed, restrained and trained. All of our energy from eating and appetites to cravings and desires must be trained. Everything from anger to sexual energy must be contained, trained and released properly. Ethical, legal and moral standards are designed to set boundaries. Remember all people are spiritual beings having a human experience though a physical body with their intellectual minds. There are rules and standards that we must learn and obey to correctly govern energy of all kinds. WHAT DO WE CALL ENERGY?THE MIXUP WITH THE MARVELOUS MAKEUP OF MANKINDWe were not designed to die or built to break. The unfortunate fact is that we poison ourselves and our planet with our own products. We practice sin and produce stress through disobedience and rebellion. This is just the spiritual side of the coin. Today's trend is to trust more and more in science and technology and less and less on natural and supernatural assistance. It's not unusual, from day to day to hear or read about some breakthrough or promising discovery. Discovery means we just found out, not that it never existed before we gained the knowledge of it! Believing predominately in man's limited ability to conquer all of his problems erodes our faith in God. We are being bombarded with information and knowledge that does not include or even remotely mingle God into the mix. Many people no longer really by practice believe in God. Most accept the concept of a God and deceive themselves into thinking that such a process amounts to faith in God. "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient." This verse and those that follow indicate that as free moral agents God allows those who rejected Him to follow their own sinful inclinations that results in a perverted mindset. This level of corruption permeates the policies and thought processes that we have, and project from one to another. This principle plainly presents itself in today's practices. Many people have a form of Godliness; they go to church on Sundays and give to charities, but in their personal practices they remain insulated and isolated from the real battle. UNDERSTANDING WHAT SPIRIT ISEnergy of all kinds enables. Wind, rain, lighting and all atmospheric conditions in general carry the energy of weather. Water, rocks and the complex mixture of what we call soil have kinetic and potential energy. Sometimes the narrow definitions of science miss the full spiritual significance of what energy is, where it comes from and how it actually operates. We have learned how to harness energy and use it for lighting, transportation and all types of work. We have broken it down into its most basic components and somehow feel and think that we have absolute control over it until we don't. Energy, life and spirit are inseparable even if we define them individually. As such any explanation regarding how they interact is limited by our finite minds. We can only describe the working of spirit, not define it. Many scholars and scientist choose to ignore the spiritual aspect of our existence due to this fact. Never-the-less pretending something does not exist does not negate it. Biology, gravity and the spiritual realm continue in perpetuity whether we believe in them or not. They cannot be defied only applied into our existence. Consciousness is much more than awakened awareness; it encompasses our spiritual connectivity to all of life. Both the financial and liquor industries have adopted the use of spiritual metaphors to describe the characteristics and conditions associated with various behaviors and effects. Animal spirits was a term used by John Maynard Keynes in his 1936 book The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money. The terminology described the instincts, proclivities and emotions that he believed influenced human behaviors. He measured the values in terms of consumer confidence. This is the same factor that influences investor behavior and market dynamics. They also say that such spirits often drive market trends and volatility. The term "wine and spirits" has its roots in ancient civilizations. The term "spirits" is derived from the Latin word "spiritus," which means breath or essence. It was once used to describe the concentrated essence of distilled alcohol. Many people have a limited understanding of what energy is. This in turn carries over to the understanding of spirit. Most energy is invisible! Air, electricity, gravity, light, magnetism, moisture, temperature, thought and wind are all examples of energy. we cannot physically see them, but we can feel them and/or observe their effects. Spirit carries the same characteristics. In fact, energy and spirit are so interrelated that we will not find one without the other. There is a "science of spirit," an etiquette throughout the invisible empire of intangible "spiritual" substance. This energy of life contains the glue which holds everything together. Spirit like gravity has a force; like magnetism its presence has a pull. We can sense and feel it like wind, and it can spread like fire in the shapeless way of flowing water. Putting all of these attributes together barely describes SPIRIT. Whether we acknowledge it or not the foundation of LIFE is spirit. The underlying force behind our attitudes and behaviors are spirit. Our attitude towards, behavior by, feelings about and learned life habits affects the spirit in which life is perceived to occur. Many of us have "pet peeves." These are the nuanced and particular personal continual annoyances that we hate to indulge under any conditions. We treat them with our own brand of righteous indignation privately and sometimes publicly. Most of us adopt these "spirits of intolerance" unknowingly and nurture them over a lifetime. Spirits can often be discerned and categorized by the behaviors they manifest within the people they inhabit. The "spirit of arrogance" often accompanies those who rule under the culture on unchecked authority. Bullies generally project a "spirit of dominance and superiority" often distinguished by calling other people names or degrading them in ways that demean them. Leaders can easily be seduced through their egos by such spirits. Many succumb to a spirit of belligerence and narcissism that swallows them up in pride. This is why we all must control our own spirit in line with ethical, moral and spiritual standards! Our individual spirit, "the spirit of man," represents the energy of our own personal consciousness. We are obligated to control and regulate the "spirit" of our thinking, feelings, emotions and behaviors according to higher standards; not necessarily those of our own! THE ARTIFICIAL, NATURAL, SUPERFICIAL, SUPERNATURAL & SYNTHETIC Everything is real but everything is not natural. In the world of spirit and substance there is a category we call artificial. Behaviors and things deemed as artificial are made or produced by human beings rather than occurring naturally or normally. Anything that is contrived, false or insincere can qualify as being artificial. The word "artificial" is an adjective that we use to describe but not fully define something. We must be careful how we apply it. Something is natural if it follows a "normal," standard or usual course of coming into action or existence. Nature, which does not include mankind is natural. The world is filled with superficial as opposed to sincere actions, affirmations, beliefs, images, symbols and substances. On the surface they appear to be genuine but in reality, their existence lacks depth and may even be fake. What we call the "supernatural" is often described as an event, manifestation or occurrence that cannot be explained. The supernatural is usually attributed to some energy or force that defies natures' laws and goes beyond scientific understanding. A "synthetic" is and can be described as a proposition or substance made up or manufactured by other than natural means. Synthetics imitate and can be a substitute for food, light, logic and materials. Synthetics are usually engineered for specific qualities and purposes like polyester in fabrics and acrylic for glass. The use of plastics has had an effect on almost every aspect of manufacturing, shipping and storage known to man. There are very few things that have not been modified and reinvented. We believe that it is important to maintain some traditional standards that hold the line when it comes to artificial food artificial intelligence and artificial light! Yes, it's real but is it natural, superficial, supernatural and or synthetic? WISDOM LIVES BETWEEN CLARITY & WHAT WE CALL CONTRADICTIONS Many people are superstitious whether they acknowledge it or not. Superstitions generally fit a belief in something we want to believe. Superstitions can be based on experiences or teachings interpreted as actual and factual. We all tend to form beliefs based off of experiences that are correlated and embraced as fact. Our interpretations may or may not be accurate, but most of the time they are accepted and discussed as if they really are. Wisdom lives between clarity and contradiction, and when it is ignored, anarchy fills that gap! Neuroscience is still searching for answers as to how we exist, operate and think. As limited beings with unlimited potential, will what we call contradictions eventually evolve into understanding? What is mind over matter? How can a people who believe in a government of the people by the people and for the people stand by quietly when even pastors protesting peaceably in public can be shot in the head with "non-lethal" ammunition? Where do the preachers of these "Mega-churches" stand? Was not JESUS, as a political prisoner, executed by the government under the watchful approval and eyes of his days religious leaders? Do we limit our outcry to only those not murdered by political sanction or government officials? Ethical, legal and moral principles do not have to align with political affiliation. As a matter of fact, they rarely if ever do. The reluctance to label "sin" as "sin" and the negligence to address the realm of "spirit," clouds and obscures most of us from the realities that truth seeks to reveal to us all. Wisdom lives between clarity and contradiction, and when it is ignored, anarchy fills that gap! Is not murder under any guise (appearance, form, likeness, presentation, semblance, shape) is still murder? Whether it's done to attendees or speakers at concerts and gatherings or disarmed and helpless enemy combatants, what is the rationale for murder? When and where does ideology trump humanity? When justification becomes subjective, in essence aren't we saying that anyone can have their own truth and that anything goes? "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things." That's the way the Bible puts it. The common man puts it this way. "What's good for the goose is good for the gander." This is the idiom regular people use. The phrase states that the same rules or standards should apply to everyone. It is often used in discussions about justice, equity, and fairness. This saying highlights the need for consistent treatment across different individuals or groups. For example, if one person is allowed certain privileges, others in similar situations should be granted the same privileges. Pardons and privileges differ from forgiveness and reconciliation. WAKE UP! The spiritual aspect of our existence does not conform to the imbalances we perpetrate and practice in our irrational minds. Wisdom lives between clarity and contradiction, and when it is ignored, anarchy fills that gap! Wisdom exists in multiple forms. It is spiritual and has a distinct footprint. Reading through Proverbs chapter 8 and 9 gives us a glimpse into the way wisdom works. THINGS BREAK: UNDERSTANDING SIN, sickness, |

THIS POST IS ABOUT LIFES MOST IMPORTANT THING. when WE NARROW it DOWN to THE ONE THING, THAT'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING ELSE, IT would have to be WHAT CONNECTS EVERYTHING TOGETHER. THIS THEN IMPLIES THAT EVERYTHING IN EXISTENCE OPERATES (LIVES, MOVES AND HAS ITS BEING) THROUGH THE SAME SOURCE OF ENERGY WHICH HAS GIVEN LIFE TO ALL THINGS. IT MUST ALSO STAND TO REASON THAT ANYTHING OF IMPORTANCE CONCERNING any of US HAS SOME KIND OF Affect ON all of US. THE SAYING THAT "WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER," GOES WELL BEYOND JUST HUMAN BEINGS. THE EARTH AND THE UNIVERSE AS A WHOLE IS INTERCONNECTED, INTERDEPENDENT AND INTEGRATED IN WAYS THAT ARE BEYOND OUR COMPREHENSION. THIS FACT EVEN RELATES TO THE CONTROVERSY BEHIND THE SLOGAN "BLACK LIVES MATTER." JUSTICE DOES NOT PICK SIDES, IT POINTS TO TRUTH. RIGHTEOUS JUDGEMENT IS DERIVED FROM THE BALANCED APPLICATION OF BOTH EQUAL AND EQUITABLE SCRUTINY. RIGHTEOUSNESS IS MEASURED SPIRITUALLY. ONLY GOD CAN SEE WHAT WE SAY OR BELIEVE IN OUR HEARTS. ALL LIVES MATTER! we can easily identify with suffering if we have suffered too. on the other hand we can only imagined a feeling if we have never experienced IT. too many of us are being "VICTIMIZED" BY APATHY AND COGNITIVE DISSONANCE (conflict of interests). when we fail to see and understand THat everyone is part of an INTEGRATed inclusive BROTHERHOOD it MAKES US "ALL VICTIMS." the significance of this principle may be lost on many of us, but it REMAINS true. WHAT'S MOST IMPORTANT IS THAT "ALL LIVES MATTER!" HOWEVER, IT IS JUST AS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT "ALL LIVES WILL NEVER MATTER" OR HAVE A REAL MEANING UNTIL "BLACK LIVES MATTER" TOO. WHEN WE EMBRACE THE MUTUAL AND NATURAL CONNECTIONS GOD HAS FORMED AMONG "ALL THINGS," WE CAN THEN UNDERSTAND THE EFFECT OF OUR ACTIONS UPON EVERYTHING. THE BIBLE EXPLAINS IT IN THE BOOK OF ROMANS CHAPTER EIGHT, VERSES NINETEEN THROUGH TWENTY-TWO. YES, ALL OF CREATION IS SUFFERING AS A RESULT OF MANKINDS FALLEN CONDITION. CORRUPTION LIKE RUST IS CORRODING THE ENTIRE PLANET. ADAM, THE FIRST MAN, SICKENED THE PLANET. JESUS, THE SON OF MAN, BROUGHT HEALING TO THE ENTIRE EARTH. tHE SACRIFICE OF JESUS MAKES ALL THINGS POSSIBLE FOR ALL of US. WE ARE ALL CONNECTED TO A LIFE FORCE AND SOURCE THAT WE LIVE THROUGH WHETHER WE ACKNOWLEDGE IT OR NOT. IN FACT, NOTHING IN LIFE IS MORE IMPORTANT! KNOWING, UNDERSTANDING AND PRIORITIZING THIS unifying FACT IS THE GREATEST CHALLENGE WE FACE.
WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS THERE WILL YOUR HEART BE ALSO
SPIRIT: THE ORIGIN AND SOURCE OF LIFE
OUR SOURCE OF EXISTENCE ALSO KNOWN AS LIFE'S SOURCE OF ENERGY CANNOT BE SIMPLY CATEGORIZED, COPIED, MANUFACTURED OR DUPLICATED BY MAN. LIFE, TO BE LIFE, MUST CONTAIN AND MANIFEST LIFE'S FORM. THE TERM WE USE TO DESCRIBE THIS PHENOMENA IS SPIRIT. SPIRIT IS simply THE "ENERGY form" of existence BEHIND ALL LIFE. SPIRIT, THE VERB, GIVES CONTEXT TO THE MEANING OF "SPIRIT" THE NOUN, THIS IS DUE TO THEIR OVERLAPING AND SIMILAR CHARACTERISTICS. HOWEVER, SPIRIT, THE NOUN, HAS NO LIMITATIONS WHEN APPLIED TO ANIMATE (living) AND/OR INANIMATE (non-living) THINGS. SPIRIT IS NOT MATTER BUT CAN BE FOUND WITHIN IT. FIRE AND LIGHT ARE NOT MATTER BUT ARE OFTEN USED AS EXPRESSIONS OF SPIRIT. GRAVITY IS NOT MATTER BUT ALL MATTER IS SUBJECT TO IT. YES, IN FACT SPIRIT IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE NON-PHYSICAL PART OF A LIVING PERSON OR THING. SPIRIT DESCRIBES THE FORCE BEHIND NATURE AND LIFE. WHEN SOMETHING IS "SPIRITED AWAY" IT DENOTES A LEVEL OF HIDDEN SECRECY. JUST AS NO ONE KNOWS THE WAY OF SPIRIT. NO ONE KNOWS THE WAY OF THOSE BORN OF "THE SPIRIT." LIFE IS ABOUT CHANGING OR EVOLVING FROM ONE "FORM" OR STATE TO ANOTHER. SPIRIT IS PHYSICALLY INCOMMUNICABLE AND IMPALPABLE. HOWEVER, "WORDS" DESCRIBING ITS ATTRIBUTES ARE FILLED WITH SPIRIT THAT CONTAIN THE CLUES ABOUT HOW SPIRIT OPERATES. A PASSAGE IN THE BIBLE TELLS US "GOD IS SPIRIT," NOT THAT GOD IS "A" SPIRIT, PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND. AS WE'VE OFTEN STATED IN NUMEROUS POSTS, "WORDS CARRY SPIRIT!" IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD, AND THE WORD WAS WITH GOD AND THE WORD WAS GOD. WORDS ARE NOT JUST INTANGIBLE EXPRESSIONS OF LETTERS ARRANGED FROM AN ALPHABET FOR TALKING, THEY CONTAIN ENERGY AND LIFE. IF SPIRIT IS THE ENERGY OF LIFE, AND WORDS CARRY SPIRIT, AND WE SPEAK WORDS, CAN WE ALSO BEING FORMED IN GOD'S IMAGE SPEAK LIFE? DID NOT GOD SPEAK THE WORLD INTO EXISTENCE? ARE WORDS REALLY THAT POWERFUL? HUMANS ARE THE ONLY CREATURES ON THE PLANET GIFTED WITH THE POWER OF LANGUAGE. THIS HAS GIVEN US THE CAPACITY TO LIE! WE SHOULD BE AWARE THAT WORDS CAN CARRY MORE POWER THAN BOMBS. NO WONDER JESUS STATED THAT BY OUR WORDS WE WOULD BE JUSTIFIED AND/OR CONDEMMED.
THE PROCESS IS AS IMPORTANT AS THE PROGRESS
WE SHOULD NOT SUPPORT THE SYSTEMS THAT CORRUPT US
LIFE IS NOT A GAME IT IS A GIFT
THERE IS A CURE FOR THE CURSE THAT was CAUSED by THE CORRUPTION
HEALTH IS A UNIVERSAL PHENOMENON
FAITH HAS A SCIENTIFIC SIDE TO IT - THE TECHNOLOGY IS SPIRITUAL
HEALING: THE MEANING AND THE METHODS
HEALING AND RECOVERY ARE NATURAL CURES BY DESIGN. THEY REMEDY OUR AILMENTS ON THEIR OWN. AN INTERVENTION BECOMES NECESSARY WHEN WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO MEND ON OUR OWN.
INTERVENTION: an action taken that interferes and is meant to improve a circumstance, condition or situation.
FACING OUR FEELINGS AND FOCUSING ON FACT
LOGIC, RATIONALE, SUPPOSITIONS AND THINKING
When will we realize that we are the living evidence and proof of both blessings and curses. Is it appropriate to allow and indulge a system that jeopardizes our very existence? What will it take for us to realize that all of our ingenuity and inventions cannot fix it. Technology cannot come to the rescue and science will not save us. The remedy calls for healing; the medicine has a spiritual dimension, and the only doctor qualified to administer the proper dosage is Jesus. We drive the ambulance and are the conduit forming the path that leads to that spiritual hospital. This must be taught, told and acknowledged!
PRIORITIZE: TO PLACE IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE
THE WAY THAT WE MANAGE OUR SPIRIT AND OPERATE IN THE FLESH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE CAN DO. THIS DETERMINES HOW WE ETERNAL OUR SOULS! YES, WE ARE IN CHARGE AND IN CONTROL OF OUR OWN DESTINY. WE will be held fully RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERY CHOICE WE MAKE DURING THis JOURNEY. WE MAY NOT BE IN CONTROL OF EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE AND SITUATION THAT CONFRONTS US, BUT WE HAVE AUTHORITY OVER OURSELVES! HOW WE EACH GOVERN OUR REACTIONS AND RESPONSES TO EXTERNAL STIMULUS GAUGES HOW WE HOLD CONTROL OF OUR SPIRIT. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE POSSESS IS OUR SOULS. THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE EXCHANGED FOR OR IS AS VALUABLE AS OUR SOUL. WISDOM IS THE PRINCIPAL THING, SO WE NEED WISDOM; HOWEVER, IT IS VITAL TO ALSO GAIN THE UNDERSTANDING TO PRIORITIZE AND PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST. ACCESSING AND ATTAINING THAT LEVEL OF WISDOM MUST BE EARNESTLY SEARCHED OUT AND SOUGHT IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. "But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him." THIS MEANS THAT WHEN WE SEEK TRUTH, TRUTH SEEKS US!
