Love, Hell, and Near Death Experience
I have mentioned Near Death Experiences a number of times
in my blogs, because at my age (84) one is necessarily closer to death than at
a younger age. Since all life forms on Earth are said to be mortal most of us not
only think at it, but are forced to think of it, because the powers that be
expose millions of children to the fright of death that war brings.
Madeline Albright, U.S. secretary of State under the Bill
Clinton regime, claimed that killing a half a million Iraqi children was not
too high a price to pay to secure the right to export U.S. wrought liberal ‘democracy’
and insure ‘free trade’ to pirate corporations. Since for the grace of a few
seconds, I would have been killed during WW2, I can identify with the victims
of war. In my late teens, I joined the U.S. Marine Corps. I did it primarily
because the course in trigonometry that I was taking at Northeastern University
did not particularly interest me, and architectural drafting bored me. The
courses I was enrolled in went against the grain of my family’s past
experience, which had clustered around religion, politics, teaching, news
dissemination, and agriculture. After a few years in America, I enrolled in engineering
courses as a way to insure for myself a secure future. My logic proved to be misguided.
That is why I soon rationalized that discovering something about the military
from a victor country’s perspective might cement my transition into a different
culture with a bit more certainty.
I bring up the case of nde, because one of the striking
projections of the experience (as reported by those who experience it) is that
of unconditional love. The experience
radically contradicts the one taught those brought up in the tradition of the Reality
of Hell and for that reason are able to imagine that they could have been born
in a Land Without Evil. Hell was ever confirmed by the hells brought about by
governments this side of Dante’s ” Divine
Comedy ”.
Why, say, would a parallel realm on planet Venus pardon
the crimes committed on Earth as if the crimes of criminals on Earth are
irrelevant? No platform on the internet that deals with nde has acknowledged
this schism; no neoChristian theologian that I know of has made the observation
or acknowledged the contradiction as real.
For some time, I have insisted that we are being forced by
governments to live in City-wrought Virtual reality rather than Reality as
wrought by Nature. An example that illustrates the diference between Virtual or
pseudo reality and Real reality is—interestingly enough—hunger and not-hunger.
In a Real or Nature based reality hunger is an inescapable reality. In a
Virtual or City based reality hunger has become almost an unknown: hunger in a
city has been practically eliminated because of a city’s ability to steel from
the countryside* with impunity. How long will the thievery and killing of those
born to Nature last?
*Because of the politization of the issue, we do not know
for sure whether the so-called Ukrainian holodomor
was caused by Stalin’s deliberate confiscation of Ukrainian grain or by
conditions caused by war, climate change, and intervention by the West in the
Russian Civil War, the latter a continuation of a war begun a thousand years
earlier at the time of the Viking invasion of the realms about the Black and
Caspian seas. Whatever the distant past, there can be no doubt that America and Europe demanded the Soviet Union pay for the debts of the tsar and its own. In my
opinion, the Western demand for the Soviet Union to pay off old debts when its
territores were severely stressed by after effects of war, surely was war by
other means—against the Soviet Union’s intuitive (but never discovered)
identification with the People of Nature.
Indeed, America is as resposible for holodomor
as Stalin.
The war waged by Virtual reality is the main reason why it
and Real reality (Citybred Reality vs Reality of the wood-countryside)—both of
which realities insist on Democracy as social order—will not exhaust itself
until Virtual reality causes Nature to win by default. The Reality of Nature cannot
compromise, because it is in the nature of Nature to be all there is. On the
other hand, Virtual reality, which is of a citybred environment, cannot deny
its origin in Nature—even though its thoughts are of a fantasy that will,
sooner or later, end in a crash.
While Nature is immortal, the City—by its inherently
artificial nature—rejects Nature, and is real only as a farce. It takes no
great intelligence to discover that the State is of the City, which is why the
State, too, (over the longer term) is a farce. The State of course insists that
my judgement is false by insisting that Artificial Intelligence will
soon overtake Natural Intelligence. My critics are supporters and lobbyists
that come of the empires of our day: the United States of America, the Russian
Federation, China, Europe, and several smaller State entities. Even in days of
their comeupance, these continue to fantasize about their immortality. The only
way that Virtual reality knows how to reinforce its fantasy is by reversing the
order of logic and keeping the sword of Democles (monopoly
of power) hanging over the head of the Nature-born Populists instead of itself.
While regard of self among Populists of the Wood and
those of the City is of the same source, the nde of Populists of the wood and
those of the City differ substantially. While the first would judge those who
refuse to help their starving neighborswith great severity, the second care
little whether those in the apartment next door live or die.
