The Bigger the Gorger

Hieros Gamos means Holy Marriage, and ‘hiermalgamy’ means a forced or unholy marriage by secular authorities of people to governments through the act of taxation or other violent and unnatural jointings and/or divorces.

A long time ago (1973) a book called “Small Is Beautiful” (subtitled: A Study of Economics As If People Mattered) by British economist E.F. Schumacher was a well known best seller. For a brief moment the book, published at the tail end of then fading world of hippies, held the attention of the world, then faded from most everyone’s memory to such an extent that today ‘beautiful’ may well be said to have been misused, because as far as today’s globalists are concerned, ‘ugly’ would have been a word far more appropriate. A similar book today would be titled: “The Bigger and Moar the Gorgeous”: Only 0.01%  of Humankind Matters.

On the other hand, we live in times when physics can do near anything. For example, while looking through YouTube for a child’s toy, a cylinder-man who walks down steps by inverting his weight (I did not find him), I found a spinning top that does the same thing. “How wonderful!”  I thought, “I have a perfect parody for billionaire Bill Gates, who is now selling what used to be sht water and trying to make us like drinking it; well, at least make Africans like it. Because in Africa city life is even less natural than it is in India, which with help from technology is turning itself inside out.

It is hard to imagine that the authors of The Mahabharata  would ever have imagined that Indian parents would make one of their goals in life having sons over daughters to such degree that they would not give birth to daughters, and today most of the sons (I doubt that it can be denied), due to the relative scarcity of women, think of finding a woman to rape. While rape is the 4^th largest crime in India, the largest numbers of women raped are lost tourists or Indian women raped by relatives.

I realize that some of the Hieros Gamos or Divine Marriage events which I am describing sicken the soul. The good news is—who any longer believes in ‘soul’? Still, that may be changing, as the internet gives access to information from lays and medical people alike about so-called Near Death Experiences. As I understand it, in spite of angry and nasty denials from some ‘scientists’ (Dawkins?) that it is all hogwash or spiritual sht water, these give clear indications that thought does not begin or end with our brain, but originates (Dawkins not withstanding) from somewhere beyond it.

For all my scepticism concerning materialist orientation, our recent (thousand years) experience impresses with its violence and its seeming success. I have spent my lifetime thinking about the whyfores. Was this switch in orientation that used to project endearment due to some natural catastrophe (Storegga slides?) that caused the ancient reindeer herders—after being trapped in northern latitudes—to reverse their tradition of endearment* of nature to one of violence against it? (Are we not told that our forebears made buffalo jump over cliffs?) Was this event the seed that forced some men to turn to the practice of animal slaughter, which pathology grew due to its unexpected success until it reached the scale of the fur tribute, which initiated our brutal and planet destroying tax system and the governments that rose on the backs of our flayed skins, raped birth canals, and banged heads?

It is through prolonged brutality that the fur tribute, animal expendability, and war were entangled in one braid of behaviour, which marriage (superseding gifts and alms) was at a later time sealed by GovRmnt with a tax on life itself.

* Endearment—the English language as proof of its recent arrival shows an almost total lack of endearing words; such as there be are mostly limited to names, re: John < Johnny; Ann < Annie. There is no ‘flowrie’, but, yes, there is birdie.

Hiermalgamos and Other Names

 

Hieros Gamos means Holy Marriage, and ‘hiermalgamy’ means a forced holy marriage or mismarriage perpetrated by secular authorities using taxation as the scar that in former times slave masters seared into the flesh of their slaves to mark them as their property.

Today the irons of slavery are more sophisticated, and therefore less visible. Still, whether we are a U.S. citizen or a Latvian, our respective governments jealously keep track of us. A free human being, such as once lived in the wood or the field, belongs to the past. Yet being homeless will get uss a register number in a potter’s field.

By some strange alchemy (or refusal to admit otherwise), ‘hiermalgamy’ has become identified as a ‘natural’, even a God-given process, whereby Hieros Gamos, the marriage of consciousness onto nature, becomes identified as marriage of humans to monkey like beings—such is the interpretation given so-called humans of our time by Western Christians and their adherents all over the globe.

If one looks closely, there remains some evidence of a time when human beings and nature lived in near proximity to each other. This is when ‘civilization’ still held Hanuman to be one of its princes, when govRmnts had not yet discovered and imposed taxes.

The seemingly miraculous arrival of a Super civilization such as ours went unexplained for a long time. Then, suddenly: SHAZAM! As if out of the blue: Paris. London. Berlin. New York. Tokyo. Moscow. Shanghai, Dubai… an endless list of deserts of concrete, one poorer, another richer. To make hide the poor and homeless, never before heard of lotteries worth hundreds of millions of dollars, euros, and rubles in weekly jackpots make the poor become millionaires today as well.

While taxes remained for a long time unexplained by even Karl Marx, at last came Charles Darwin, who wrote: “With savages, the weak in body or mind are soon eliminated; and those that survive commonly exhibit a vigorous state of health. We civilised men, on the other hand, do our utmost to check the process of elimination; we build asylums for the imbecile….”

Hitler vigorously disagreed with Darwin, while the United States of America substitutes nature at every turn so successfully that its disciples are too many to count.

Where are we heading this 2015? Is it “ad astra per aspera” as ever?

There may be hope for a downturn.

                                                                      
While Marx never quite said it, it is clear from his admiration for Darwin, that he intuited that Darwin had discovered the missing link that he (Marx) had failed to discover. In other words, Darwin’s vigorous and one sided analysis for all its failures demanded an explanation of how the rich had overcome so many of the poor without enforcing on them taxation?

Surely not by taxing the rich?

Though our ‘civilization’ as we know it is only about a thousand years old, ever since 2008 (only seven years ago) and the arrival of the unconventional monetary policy known as ‘quantitative easing’ (QE), we have discovered that the miracle workers all the time have been certain dwarves working at the federal printing presses, who have been quite literally flooding the world with ‘happy’ money.

We now discover that in prehistoric times this ‘happy’ money was known as taxes, which is why it was kept a secret from us. And no wonder. If we look into the matter deeper, we discover that although taxation has a long history, it played a minor role in the ancient world. It actually started with the Russian tsars as a ‘fur tribute’  or 'yasak' before it came 'big' in America, where fur became known as ‘jacket’. In the 16^th cent., Russia, emulating the West, added with the yasak money Siberia to itself.  Do we not wear a jacket still and as part of our armor does it still not smell of blood?
