From the industrial into the nuclear winter

Still listening to this album. Returned home with it awaiting. 
Enjoying this a lot. 



Why such force? Why such brutality? Lately this is the lamentation of others. Violence speaks in tongues. It rolls over like a white eye and severs all connections. Punctuated blade in your gut. 
Receive the Word and be delivered.
Beware of those who smell battle and lust for union.


My brother introduced me to a few new things. He spoke of the Towers of Silence that belong to Zoroastrianism. I thought it was a very fascinating device. Mystical technology instead of mere architecture. He also shared this with me:





The Eye in the Triangle
An interpretation of Aleister Crowley 
By 
Israel Regardie

This was a really good read. The author new Crowley personally and was familiar with him through occultism. Further in his life, Regardie became a psychoanalyst. The influences of occultism and psychoanalysis did shine but offered what I felt was a balanced and tasteful exploration into an often enamored or defamed character. 

Some may be annoyed to find that this book speaks only of the "highlights" of Crowley's career, according to Regardie. The author barely mentions the O.T.O. and the end of Aleister Crowley's life. He claims to be offering the best of the man and avoided what he considered marginal or mediocre. I would have to investigate further to reveal whether I agree with that or not. 

The guru is shrouded in mystery and that is what protects him from being controlled by his ghosts. To invoke his ghosts is to possess the demons that move in loops. 
Samsara.

With the Current


Chris Hedges on the work of Sheldon Wolin, 17 May 2011 from Lannan Foundation on Vimeo.

Inverted totalitarianism and the works of Sheldon Wolin are providing a great deal of insight into the current nature of the United States. This organism without accountability has reached critical mass. In another video, Wolin points out how barbarism is a harsh reality that requires only small amounts to persuade the masses to persevere by assembling once again. How high is your tolerance to chaos and violence? What is your threshold? Will you let go?


Applying static principles to economic evolution is a fruitless venture. Yet there is a surplus of those who attempt to do so. Letting go of the nostalgic residue from the past and moving forward by recognizing the situation at hand.This is one prescription for elevating one's self to join the real conversation.





Though inverted totalitarianism may be another gradient added to the incomplete spectrum of phasic political events, it is still a measure of progress. There is a disregard for transitional positions within political and social worlds here in the United States. It is often regarded as a departure from Capitalism even if it is anything but.  As if it's applicability could not be outgrown or to leave it means total abandonment.

The ebb and flow...
