Vampires Eat Wood and Drink Tar

The unrelenting deforestation of our planet by economic forces released by post-Christian ‘Christianity’ and now exploited by post-fascist fascist governments, including that of Latvia, marches on http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-28961554 .

Whenever accused of sowing mayhem, the atheist and post-christian governments excuse themselves as being ‘democratic’ and point to the obvious fact that the ‘democracy’ being practiced today preaches fanaticism on behalf of ‘individual rights’ and is reactionary with regard to ‘communal rights’—as if delays in action to avert the catastrophe now in progress is ‘normal’ and acceptable.

While the deforestation of the Amazon as per link above brings to our attention the death of trees and the life that shelters in their umbrage, the cannibalistic individualist psyche has since some time transferred its attentions to the underground resources of our planet. Here, too, a catastrophe is in the offing http://www.projectcensored.org/21-global-oil-reserves-alarmingly-over-estimated/ . As the link points out, the imminent collapse of the West produced by its onanistic (aka vampiric) psyche is being fostered by the grandiose optimism of its princes cum oligarchs. Deadly to human and all life forms, the onanistic psyche is faced with little censure except perhaps the unpredictable outcome of the wars it fosters around the world.

The vampire psyche destroys not only the human mind by means of rigidifying it on behalf of some vampire mold, but it also eats wood while keeping mute about its caviar—wood resin, a material widely used in the past https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOidkCPgP24 and of great potential in the future as replacement of oil tars. While, for example, the birch tree, widely disseminated in certain climate zones of our planet has useful tar exudates, today some foresters in my country (Latvia) have been known to call it a weed, whereas they should be making experiments of how to use the tar of birch bark into useful objects and engine fuel.

The reason for the failure to investigate the uses of wood products is the result of a deep seated prejudice of the wood. Such a prejudice is  disseminated my our tax collecting culture, which refuses to admit that this ‘civilization’ is defined by the brutality of our governments, which, needless to say, do all they can to repress such facts through myth about the advantages of agriculture and city life.

Why then do human beings fail to overthrow the tax based system?

One answer, for sure, is the fear of death instilled by the violence of governments. Violence is not only of such governments as led by Stalin and Hitler, but is imbedded in the very nature of tax collection. The myth of ‘resurrection’ is not a story of hope, but a lie perpetrated by the usurpers as were the direct beneficiaries of taxation imposed on the oral cultures which preceded the ‘written law’ oriented systems.

There is ample evidence that oral cultures do not fear death for the simple reason that their uncensored contact with nature provides them with a faith that death is illusory.

The contact with nature, where there are many plants, enables the right hemisphere of our brain to function as intended; that is to say, it enables the users of such plants to experience such parallel universes as only recently quantum physics proposes in an attempt to explain the nature of matter—even as it dismisses so-called ‘objectivity’ as not in the least objective because of its self-limiting nature.

In order to liquidate our violent ‘civilization’, humankind finds itself confronted by the dire necessity of losing the myth that causes it to fear death. All of us know that only through a loss of such fears, will we be able to do away with the militarized police forces that our governments are engaged in creating in order to perpetuate themselves and the ‘civilization’ of taxation that perpetuates them.
 

One ‘science’ that is moving us in this direction is that of Biocentrism http://www.robertlanzabiocentrism.com/is-death-an-illusion-evidence-suggests-death-isnt-the-end/ , which this author discovered through the efforts of Robert Lanza, MD, who is promoting the idea that it is not the body, but the mind that is immortal. As Lanza writes: “Immortality doesn’t mean a perpetual existence in time, but resides outside of time altogether.”

The King & I

© Eso A.B.

All comments appearing within brackets [ ] are editorial in origin. This blog series begins at 264.

 

NEITHER GOD, NOR NOMOS, BUT KING

 

Having begun this series on the ‘King’ with Slavoy Žižek’s mischievous conjoining of the King with bureaucracy (The King and his Bureaucracy, Ch6, ‘Interrogating the Real’), it is only proper to conclude with the no less mischievous comparison that the pop philosopher makes of subjectivity with “dangerous hubris”, insisting that the claim to “authentic essence of humanity” lies “outside the domain of subjectivity”. Žižek posits the subject of authentic essence in Antigone and its human counterpoint in her sister Ismene.

 

I would call the other name of the “subject” that Žižek imagines—a “mask”. However, Žižek quickly becomes inconsistent and contradicts himself, when he decides to dedicate his book to an old Slovene communist, who in 1943 led an uprising of some 2000 starved Yugoslav prisoners against 2200 Italian soldiers who are their guards.

 

The Slovene prisoners succeed in disarming the Italian soldiers. After the war, the Slovene communist is arrested (no reason given why--by the succeeding communist-Stalinist government) and ten years later, he is forced to participate in the building of a monument that celebrates the uprising he led.

 

It is an ironic story, surely.

 

Knowingly or unknowingly, Žižek then tops off the irony by putting Stalin into role of the ‘King’, while the role of the ‘bureaucracy’ passes to Stalinist  communists, those who are enforcing Stalin’s ‘will to power’.

 

This leaves the reader confused as to why Žižek holds an old communist in such high esteem, for obviously the man revolted against the guards of the prison on the basis of his subjective feelings and decisions. The problem resolves itself only if one assumes that Žižek contradicts himself or Stalinists are the new Catholics.

 

I agree that the monument, the ‘subject’ of the ‘’monumental building project, stands for the ‘mask’ of the old communist and his rebellious comrades, who, I assume, are meant to stand for the ‘authentic essence’ of humanity.

 

But why should one believe that the monument stands also for ‘dangerous hubris’? Is that not like a Catholic priest demanding a pagan to renounce his old Gods (who up to the moment are a part of the man’s subjectivity) for the authentic subject of an ‘outside’ God, aka Nomos https://www.google.lv/#q=meaning+of+Nomos ? And is not Nomos synonymous with such repressive organizations of pacification as the Inquisition, the Gestapo, the KGB, and the CIA/NSA? Is not dismissing subjectivity as ‘hubris’ a matter of continued repression and denial of privacy? Therefore, is the monument not a monument to Homo Sacer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_sacer --the man who cannot be murdered, sacrificed, but only killed, because all he is is naked?

 

This brings us to “god” with a small ‘g’, because Catholicity (and Christianity derived from globalist Catholicism) surely discredited god when written with a capital G, and here Žižek and Schmitt discredit him with a small g. So, why not replace the missing figure of Trust with the long neglected figure of King?

 

Would not a King serve the 900,000 Latvians forced into economic exile as de facto ‘homo sacer’ better than the bureaucratic totalitarian democracy, which with the backing of the totalitarian democracy of the EU takes upon itself the authority to make them de facto homo sacer or, in other words, homeless?

 

There will be those who will claim that I would reinstall subjectivity in place of an objective (rational law) government that a Hegelian http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hegelianism bureaucracy presumes itself to represent. As Schmitt asserted: “all significant concepts of the modern theory of the state are secularized theological concepts”. Here we may remember that Catholic Christianity spent many centuries violently persecuting and inquisitorially repressing an earlier Christianity now identified with Bogomils, Cathars, and Krist-Yans.

 

The repression was necessary because like Žižek (a Hegelist), Catholicism believes human subjectivity to be a hubristic element rather than an inherent element of being human. In short, we have biocentered human beings http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biocentrism_(ethics) opposed by virtual or ‘man-made’ human beings, who are created by words imbued with violent attributes gained through innumerable acts (? 900,000) of de facto (unacknowledged de jure) murders.

 

To discuss the means by which the King may return is a task beyond these blogs, which are meant to argue against the totalitarianism of liberal democracy in an attempt to overturn its dictatorial order that has taken the helm in Latvia. Even so, we may say—in agreement with Carl Schmitt—that the nature of democracy is to behold the rights of the rulers and the ruled as one. In other words, this is what makes democracy a charismatic force, whereas today it has become an alien and an enemy.

 

I have argued for the return of humankind to the wood and leaving urbanism as a minimal element, an element to be determined by none other than the post-urbanist age itself (certainly not by a carbon tax).

 

I am arguing that Latvians make a serious attempt to recapture for their political estate the King. In a preceding State (1918-1939), though not the post-Soviet Latvia, Latvians did indeed experiment with the notion of the ‘king’s’ return, even though the word was seldom used. This experiment was enjoined by one of the founders of the national community, Karlis Ulmanis, who became President of the country as a result of a coup d'état in 1933.

 

Ulmanis was condemned as a dictator, and many hold him such to this day. I argue, however, that Ulmanis was ahead of his time, and that political science had not yet made such strides as it has made by our time. Be that as it may, a great many Latvians praise Ulmanis’ leadership, but suffer not expressing the praise because they find themselves under a totalitarian liberal democratic regime, which in turn is under the umbrella of a liberal totalitarian ‘democratic’ regime in European Union.

 

Eso’s Chronicles 224 / 10
Parallel Universes
© Eso .B.

A news item in yesterday’s (Oct. 16) Apollo, an internet platform in Latvia, has an article about how in the near future many more of my countrymen may leave the country, because the government is determined to further reduce the number of municipal governments from 119 to about 30 by 2020 http://www.apollo.lv/zinas/prognoze-jaunu-iedzivotaju-emigracijas-vilni/616723 . The reduction is being done to simplify and make it easier for the remaining 30 municipalities to access EU funds. Moreover, there is an unmistakable trend for the municipalities to spend the EU funds in building up the cities and bypassing the countryside.

Surely there is a difference between a sovereign country and a country invaded by federalists who claim that its sovereignty remains unscathed!

In a curious manner the news link reflects a conversation that I recently shared with a member of another Latvian news portal (http://latviansonline.com/forum/viewforum/8/ ). My partner in the conversation is a retired radio engineer. He had just informed the readers at the portal that he is using his retirement to study the ‘photon’, a subject related to his profession, and that he had come to the conclusion that time was an illusion, a figment of our imagination, which is well illustrated by the cinematographic denouement of time in our particular space-time.

I have no problem in concurring with the man’s thesis, because for some time it has played a key role in the so-called Heisenberg’s quantum mechanics. However, what I bring to the engineer’s thesis is my own thesis, this being that hallucinogenic plants have since ancient times been used to bridge the small gap in time between the cinematographic pictures. As I perceive it, this ‘gap’ permits us to access a parallel universe. Indeed, there are scientists, such as Robert Lanza, MD, http://www.robertlanzabiocentrism.com/is-death-an-illusion-evidence-suggests-death-isnt-the-end/  who propose a theory known as Biocentrism, which propounds that these conceivable parallel universes suggest that there is no death. What interests me in particular is that I believe parallel universes occur also in our own space and time. I will say more about this in the following paragraphs. First, however, I would like to bring the readers’ attention to my previous blog (223) about the city or polis, which is a parallel universe to the one that preceded it, i.e., the time when humankind lived for the most part in the wood, where traditions were maintained not by the written, but by the spoken word.

 

In any event, the following is my letter to my correspondent, one Gunahrs B., apparently an electronics engineer, now retired and living in England. I have—for clarity’s sake==made some minor editorial changes.

“Hello, Gunars! Discontinuous consciousness has been in ‘use’ for some time by those who have higher education and funds to design machinery and drugs to take advantage of this phenomenon. I understand that some of our modern machines cannot really be used without the assistance of psychotropic drugs http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychoactive_drug; combat pilots are said to be regularly using these drugs on their missions. In a simplified way in earlier times, this is the same as getting your (government approved) ration of rum when needing to advance across an open field against an enemy firing at you with deliberate aim and the air is filled with bullets that have lost their way (the battles at Austerlitz, Borodino, Gettysburg, Waterloo come to mind). While death under such conditions is almost certain, at least the combatants face it deliberately mindless and are not trapped in the niche evolution designed their consciousness to occupy.

“Yesterday I listened to a drone pilot, who lives with his family in Las Vegas describe his trip to his air force base, where he takes over an ongoing drone mission in Afghanistan, and begin ‘helping’ some NATO soldier or killing an Taliban ‘terrorist’ in Afghanistan: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-24522150#TWEET922099 It does not appear as if this ‘pilot’ is on drugs, but the very fact that I have to put the word in quotation marks, reflects that I am talking about a ‘reality’ apart from where I sit at this moment. I cannot imagine this ‘pilot’ keeping at such a job (killing someone at one moment, the next helping his daughter chose what color tutu to wear) without soon seeking help at a PTSD hospital or in a bottle of vodka or bourbon. From what I have heard, marihuana is more efficient and less harmful than prescription drugs.

“In past times, before men’s lives were governed by governments (NSA and like) and most of us lived in or near a wood (as I did during WW2), while neo-religion had long repressed our native religion, there were still stories circulating about magicians, male and female (bur-vis and ra-gana) and their expertise with healing teas, potions, compresses and like. Then there were also stories of how these native medicine doctors were burned at a stake, or tied to a chair at the end of a pole, which was regularly dunked into a pond to make them confess to using mushrooms or Wild John to escape the Dominicans, Franciscans, or Jesuits come to ‘save’ them and us. Surely, with so many Latvians at one time serving in the tsar’s army in Central Asia fighting Turks and other ‘heathens’, it is disingenuous and stupid to believe that they returned home with missing limbs, and did not bring to Livonia Johns Grass seeds and contribute to local knowledge of  the plants healing properties.”

As far as ‘saving’ is concerned, it seems to have been little other than a repetition of the demand for our forebears to have ‘faith’ in the monks from Frankland teachings. Today those same monks have ‘progressed’ and become ‘scientists’ who likewise insist that the ‘doctrine’ of ‘science’ must be followed, i.e., if you wish to have access to communications http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2013-09/why-were-shutting-our-comments you must have ‘faith’ in our ‘editors’ who are members of our ‘government’. In an astonishing manner, we are witnessing the repetition of the old fight between the ‘heretics’ and the ‘priests’ with imprimatur, when such an imprimatur has largely lost its validity http://charleshughsmith.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-needed-revolution-emerging-in.html . Another way to put this was put by heretics, such as my own Herrnhuter forebears. There was no need of middlemen-priests between them and God. However, this is why the living spirit in my countrymen continues being destroyed by ‘Christ-ianity’s’ middlemen and the Academia, while the Herrnhuters have disappeared among the anonymous. 

The above mentioned correspondence originated because my respondent questioned the efficacy of ‘drugs’, while putting his faith in ‘reason’. Because ‘reason’ is nothing more than another name for the process of ‘deduction’, I wonder why it cannot be that it cannot be deduced that we live in a realm of ‘parallel universes’?

If this is so, why is it not true that a universe where the detective story and novel has been destroyed by the ‘new’ culture being brought to us by such as the NSA (http://rt.com/usa/surveiilance-court-collection-confirmation-107/  which may listen to us and learn our secrets even through a turned-off mobile phone), why those of us opposed to such an intrusive government cannot fight back by claiming it to be a universe of false flags beginning more than a thousand years ago? May we not deduce that the paranoia of the U.S. government is sourced in the past?
