Asserting Your Freedom

Did you know there are millions of laws (anti-freedoms) in effect and many more being written daily by unelected, unaccountable lawyers and politicians? Did you know that ignorance of these laws is no defense against breaking them!? The worldwide erosion of civil liberties is a real and tragic on-going issue. Wouldn't it be empowering then to know that "civil" liberties only apply to government employees and corporations? These millions of anti-freedoms being written daily are in fact NOT law or even lawful. They are "legal" and only given the force of law by YOUR consent. Unfortunately the entire legal system is designed to trick you into consenting to it, and thus it takes a solid education in civics/law to be able to effectively assert your freedom in the face of ever-increasing state tyranny. I doubt it was an accident that civics has slowly been taken out of public schools. If you're interested, as I am, in reclaiming your sovereign citizenship and asserting yourself as a freeman on the land, I highly recommend clicking here and checking out the Freeman/Sovereignty/Redemption movement. Peace.

DMT - The Spirit Molecule

A couple of years ago I read and thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Rick Strassman's clinical research on DMT in his book, DMT - The Spirit Molecule. This week I had the pleasure of watching Strassman's new documentary of the same name. The book is certainly much more in-depth, but the documentary is a great and informative introduction to the subject. Parts 1 and 2 above, here are parts 3, 4, and 5.

Amongst White Clouds

Thanks to Mark for recommending this great documentary, Amongst White Clouds. An American film-maker and seeker of enlightenment goes to the Chinese mountains, encounters and lives with various ascetic Buddhist hermits and catches some beautiful moments and inspiring insights on camera. I highly recommend it for all spiritual seekers. Peace.

Infinite Tao

I just posted from Chris' TaoWow blog a couple weeks ago, but he's written two more articles that are too good not to post, so here they are:

Whoops I Broke Space-Time

To encourage a person out of their awful addiction to facts I drew a line on a piece of paper and said "look: Look at the line. See how the mark is a line but get closer, it wobbles, closer still and it has breaks. You piece together these marks and say there is a line but closer in the line is not even joined. Close enough and I can pass through the line and start following the paper in an entirely new direction. Closer I may become fascinated by the texture of the paper, I may get into the fibers and start to see how they are not a flat piece of paper but a whole new 3D world with new paths in every direction. What of the line now? No interest, I follow these fiber threads and go where I like. But closer still... Now, closer, I decide to move between the fibers and I go through holes in between them, through the paper and I see currents of air flowing through there too. Obsessed I grab hold of a bit of air and I ride it, flowing, madly in every direction. I go in deeper and I see different patterns, I see parts of air, different gases of different patterns of different behaviors, I grab the spinning boundary of one and I whiz deeply towards an apparent center. Deeper I go and I find powerful energies of great binding and great repulsion, existing by both their power to hold form and their resistance against other great forces. I think back to the ink. Onward. Now in a world of forces I brave it and push into something invisible but beyond measure in force. I push in deeper and deeper determined to see what this force has to offer. I break through what I used to know as time. Now I exist in no-place and at no time. I venture on but as expected I can no longer relay my story back to you. There is no such thing as a straight line my friend, your equations bore me, I'm breaking barriers you can only measure the meta dynamics of.

Large Hadron Collider

I can not accept a finite universe as, if finite, it must be held by something and so then it was not finite at all but given a boundary. Most of us agree for some reason or another that there is an infinity. What then are we doing trying to measure or describe that? Only a lunatic could set about trying to measure or break infinity into constituent finite parts - Mad as it is, that is science and we as tax-payers fund that lunacy even though we believe in infinity. I want my money back. Large Hadron Collider - I'd rather spend my tax money on a meal a day for all of humanity for life. Then. If reality is infinite and so indescribable, immeasurable, unknowable and far and away beyond the limits of our senses and minds, science, religion and any form of explanation is farcical. What is worth our ink if all of the big questions are struck off the record? Perhaps we are left with philosophy, deciding what is right and what is not, this though is just as mad. As who is deciding, who is in any position to say what any other may or may not do? What else then? I would say the only thing worth any thought: (science is out, philosophy is out) all we have left is the human condition and working for global happiness. Now we have a very special start point here. We are all human and very similar by that core fact. We can not know infinity and we can not decide what is right and wrong for others but we can relate to suffering and we can, by being human, recognize in others when they are happy, sad or pretending to be happy. We can know real happiness and we can point others towards it. This is perhaps the only thing worth your heart beats.
