Conscientious objections to the jab should be honored

Conscientious objections to the COVID vaccine should be honored

As employers and governments have become more stringent with COVID vaccination requirements, many are no longer honoring conscientious or religious exemptions to the vaccine. Several states have dropped or are in the process of dropping these exemptions. Some hospitals and health departments, such as the New York Department of Health, have eliminated religious exemptions. In the private sector, United Airlines has announced that employees with religious exemptions to the vaccine will be placed on unpaid leave. Even if vaccination is a wise idea, removing these exemptions is morally wrong and unjust. The rights of conscience and religious liberty must be respected as a precondition for responsible decision-making of all kinds. Why Conscience Matters Why should conscience matter at all? Many people think that appeals to conscience (religious or non-religious) are just convenient excuses to get around the rules. But this is a grossly unfair way of characterizing what conscience is and...

A testimony of being out of touch with your body, spirit, and soul?

The biggest oxymoron: yoga teachers, spiritual leaders/teachers, somatic/embodiment therapists/teachers, healers, energy workers, bodyworkers/massage therapists, and anyone in the "wellness industry" taking the j[a]b. It couldn't be more of a testimony of being out of touch with your body, spirit, and soul. True colors revealed. The ultimate litmus test for embodied [self]awareness. 5-10 years from now they will see what they have done and the truth will reveal itself more and more and it is not going to be a pretty picture. For now, they laugh at us, gaslight us, and ridicule us with their ad hominem "conspiracy theorist" attack [logical fallacy] and socially conditioned virtue signaling. May God have mercy on their soul for they do not know what they do, programmed like lambs to the slaughter.

Calculations Show It'll Be Impossible to Control a Super-Intelligent AI

The idea of artificial intelligence overthrowing humankind has been talked about for many decades, and scientists have just delivered their verdict on whether we'd be able to control a high-level computer super-intelligence. The answer? Almost definitely not.

The catch is that controlling a super-intelligence far beyond human comprehension would require a simulation of that super-intelligence which we can analyse. But if we're unable to comprehend it, it's impossible to create such a simulation.

Rules such as 'cause no harm to humans' can't be set if we don't understand the kind of scenarios that an AI is going to come up with, suggest the authors of the new paper. Once a computer system is working on a level above the scope of our programmers, we can no longer set limits.

"A super-intelligence poses a fundamentally different problem than those typically studied under the banner of 'robot ethics'," write the researchers.

"This is because a super-intelligence is multi-faceted, and therefore potentially capable of mobilising a diversity of resources in order to achieve objectives that are potentially incomprehensible to humans, let alone controllable."

not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment

The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. No, the true measure of a man is this: how quickly can he respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give.

Stephen Hawking's newly published essays reveal dark prediction: Wealthy will create 'superhuman race'

Hawking, who died in March, writes that he is sure breakthroughs in genetic engineering will allow people to create a superhuman race within this century. He also predicted that while laws will try to prevent it, the rich and greedy will be unable to resist the temptation.

"I am sure that during this century, people will discover how to modify both intelligence and instincts such as aggression," he wrote.

"Laws will probably be passed against genetic engineering with humans. But some people won't be able to resist the temptation to improve human characteristics, such as memory, resistance to disease and length of life."

Hawking added that the emergence of a superior race will soon lead to implications for "unimproved humans" who he presumed will eventually "die out or become unimportant."

He also warned that "once such superhumans appear, there will be significant political problems with unimproved humans, who won't be able to compete." His dire prediction continued that those being outpaced in the human development race will either die out or become unimportant, leaving "a race of self-designing beings who are improving at an ever-increasing rate."

Was Ludwig Wittgenstein a Mystic?

Was Ludwig Wittgenstein a Mystic?

The philosopher's greatest work, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, only makes sense in the light of mysticism

If you bring together two enigmas, do you get a bigger enigma, or do they cancel each other out, like multiplied negative numbers, to produce clarity? The latter, I hope, as I take on Wittgenstein and mysticism.

I've been puzzling over these topics since my philosophy salon met to discuss "The Mysticism of the Tractatus," written in 1966 by B.F. McGuinness. The salon consists of eight or so people, most with graduate degrees in philosophy, who gather in the salon-runner's living room to jaw over a paper. Ludwig Wittgenstein, whom Bertrand Russell described as "the most perfect example I have ever known of genius as traditionally conceived," published only one book during his lifetime, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. First issued in German in 1921, Tractatus is a cryptic meditation on what is knowable and unknowable.

"Mysticism" is often used as a derogatory term to describe obscure, fuzzy thinking, or woo. But in "The Mysticism of the Tractatus," McGuiness uses the term to refer to an extraordinary form of perception described by sages east and west. In Varieties of Religious Experience, still the best scholarly treatment of mysticism, William James notes that during a mystical experience you feel as though you are encountering absolute truth, the ground of being, God. These revelations are laden with spiritual significance and accompanied by intense emotions. You often feel a sense of blissful timelessness and oneness with everything (although the experience can also be hellish).

The knowledge imparted by the vision seems to transcend philosophy, science and reason itself. James calls mystical experiences ineffable, which means that they cannot be expressed in ordinary language. The author of the mystical ancient Chinese text Tao Te Ching expressed this idea when he wrote, "Those who know do not speak. Those who speak do not know." The author violates the rule in stating it.

The Tao Te Ching and other mystical tracts seethe with these sorts of Godelian, "this-sentence-is-false" paradoxes, and so does Tractatus. Wittgenstein writes, "Not how the world is the mystical, but that it is." He elaborates: "We feel that even if all possible scientific questions be answered, the problems of life have still not been touched at all. Of course there is then no question left, and just this is the answer. The solution of the problem of life is seen in the vanishing of the problem." Even when the world has been thoroughly explained by science, Wittgenstein seems to be saying, it hasn't really been explained at all. The answer to the riddle of life is that there is no answer.

In his 1966 paper, McGuiness notes that in a "Lecture on Ethics" published after his death in 1951, Wittgenstein described personal experiences with mystical overtones. In one he felt "absolutely safe" and "in the hands of God." In another he was filled with astonishment at existence and saw "the world as a miracle."

Embracing an ennobling vision by rejecting cynicism and nihilism

Embracing an ennobling vision by rejecting cynicism and nihilism -- Science of the Spirit

It is the responsibility of every man to keep himself out of the abyss. Yet he cannot do this job alone; a set of guiding principles must light the way along the dark and confusing pathways of the forest. In some cases, he must be hectored, badgered, cajoled, and-in the end-forced to keep along the path; in other cases, he need only be guided by gentle instruction in the illuminating lights of philosophical inquiry. Every situation is different, and calls for different remedies.

And yet man is a slippery animal. Often he does not say what he means; he likes to cloak his true desires and motivations in garments of varying shape and color. Rare is the man who is honest with others; even rarer is he who is honest with himself.

Worshipping profit-based incentives and materialist consumerism over the well-being of humans

In these tumultuous and challenging times of great transition for humanity, we are being forced to repeatedly observe how the values and organizing principles of current human culture have been shaped to distort natural laws and subvert human heart-based values. The main pillars of society have been built to enslave the masses and extract resources for those at the top and their corrupt minions, willing to turn on their fellow human beings. If we look at the main problems created in the world, they have been built upon inverted values, enforced by the controller archetype of the False King of Tyranny.

The mass media projection of the idealized successful masculine archetype is one that climbs the corporate or social ladder to be given absolute power in his domain, as long as he plays ball with the upper ruling class. To maintain his status and wealth, he is used to continually commit gross Abuses of Power that are intentionally directed against his fellow human beings, to propagate slavery to consumerism and to continually profit off of their misery. Without understanding the NAA oversight in the mind control game behind the creation of these crumbling structures, we misperceive the problems in the world as based on human incompetence and greed. These structures are by design.

Yet, without this understanding many still run to the False King of Tyranny like a father figure hoping that he will extend his almighty power in order to grant them immunity from the evils in the world. Like a traumatized child that has been repeatedly abused by their own parents, many people are still clinging to the appearances of power, unable to see that it is he that is perpetrating the many Abuses of Power. Many of these power abuses are being highlighted all around us, which we may repeatedly see as being carried out by the controller archetype that lives in the negative ego of fear based human beings. As the controller’s desperation and anxiety increases from losing power in the earthly domain, he is even more aggressive to stay on top, more willing to kill and maim in the process. The exploitations of those weakened in the consciousness shift are being committed as physical, emotional, sexual, spiritual, mental, and social abuses that create intense damage and destruction, not only to the victims but also commit long term harm to their communities and industries in a variety of ways.

In order to clearly see that Abuses of Power have been the essential ingredient in the corrupted structure that shapes the society in which we live, we must first recognize that the abuse of power is at an epidemic level of mass proportions. Only when we can see power abuses in hindsight and in action, can we begin to comprehend the true purposes that are underlying them. One of the biggest tasks humanity faces is dismantling the mind control programming that was written by the NAA to worship absolute power as an authority, such as worshipping the rich and famous or social media celebrities as Gods. Somehow, we have been socially conditioned to believe that famous people we all recognize are actually experts at anything. They have been paid copious amounts to appear as an authority in order to represent the marketing of their brands. Why is it that most people do not pay attention or notice the obvious self-serving motivations and conflicts of interest, promoted throughout consumerism and popular opinion? People worship outward appearances of power for all the wrong reasons and seek to emulate its image, as represented in consumer advertising from the morally and spiritually bankrupt.

Misappropriated power is being systematically abused at a terrible human cost, in which ethical conduct and moral character is not even an important factor to consider in conscious decision making which greatly impacts our lives. How did that person achieve his wealth, riches and fame? If he raped, pillaged or ritualized others for it, should we care? Humanities obsession with riches, fame and celebrity on the world stage keeps handing narcissists and psychopaths access to others resources, which further hands them absolute power and an untouchable status. Humanity is guilty of creating the pedestal for the Power Elite as much as they have continually held disdain for the masses and abused their power. This is the time where we must stop and redefine our own relationship to power and further re-contextualize and redesign the meaning of power in our personal life, and within world society.

This is where the decisional framework must be considered for each person, in order to make well informed decisions about where they place personal consent for Abuses of Power through their own behaviors. The domineering bullies at the top have always manipulated the knowledge that appearances and marketing illusions are all that matters in controlling the narratives and that having the substance to back it up is not required. Some people do not value a spiritual platform that is aligned with all of humanity, where unconditional love, forgiveness, compassion and peace are the set goals for achieving inner coherence, while practicing higher standards of ethical behavior.

Instead, they may believe that these are the qualities and attributes of weak and ignorant people, and the only way to success is ruthless self-interest in a dog-eat-dog world. Each person must decide if they are willing to be aligned to their purposes of spiritual growth and to grow into feeling empathy for living things, as this is intrinsic to becoming an authentic and balanced human being during the Ascension Cycle. By accepting the challenge that we all face in life on earth, as we are emerging from the dark aeon of nonhuman entity invasion, this phase supports us to increase personal competencies and gain self-knowledge, to grow into our highest spiritual strength and the true form of benevolent power. If we refuse to recognize life challenges as lessons and opportunities for spiritual growth and cannot gain valuable wisdom from the direct gnosis of higher truths, we are missing the most important message of our time on the earth during the Ascension Cycle.

If you help others, you will be helped

If you help others, you will be helped, perhaps tomorrow, perhaps in one hundred years, but you will be helped. Nature must pay off the debt...It is a mathematical law and all life is mathematics.

They always reveal themselves over time

Pay attention to a person’s actions, pay attention to a corporation or government body’s overall actions, and follow the trail to the hidden motivation. It is there that their real intentions can be observed. Generally on this planet we can follow the money and see where it leads, from the destruction it wields. The imposter cannot hide themselves 100 percent of the time, they always reveal themselves over time.

Conservation Ethics

Conservation Ethics is the skill of being able to discern the Right Use of Action in proportion to the Resources that are available at any given time. Conservation ethics is about harnessing precious time and life force energies to be more effective and impactful through direct focus and right timing, it is the right use of proceeds and management of forces by listening and working with the natural flow of life. These skills expand and differ slightly as one develops into living harmlessly and applying conservation ethic in the management of personal energies, the management of children and family, the management of group resources, and the management of communities. harmlessness-and-cause-and-effect

when we place boundaries and speak very clearly and neutrally, we can dissolve the tension that has been created

How to set better boundaries immediately:

1. Learn how to use the 12D shield and protect your Lightbody.
2. Realize that low self-esteem is equal to little to no boundary setting.
3. Inquire and decide what your core values and ethics are. What do you value?
4. We cannot change others, we only can change ourselves.
5. Reflect on the consequences of actions ahead of time.
6. Let your consistent behavior and actions show boundary setting, not necessarily words.
7. Say what you mean and mean what you say.
