My name is Simon and I'm glad you recognized it for the joke it was.You are right about me learning just what I want to learn but I still pick up useful knowledge along the way that I never intended to. That's just life I suppose.
I am an optimist but only for my own little world and not the world as a whole. I agree with Silva when he says a society's technology is representative of their culture but this is not a good thing. As Lion already pointed out, any advancement in tech is always applied militarily first.
This is not gonna change any time soon or in the distant future I'm sorry to say.
Yes – Simon...
So Consciousness works with what it has to work with. (bold for emphasis)
It occurs to me that the fragmentation process extends much further than I have thought about in a consistent manner up until now.
It has been fermenting in the ‘back of my mind’ (interesting saying) I have been aware of it, and the implications – but the focus has been more with the general aspect of consciousness to which I (as William in bio-form) am part of.
Your ‘little world’ is your gift of individuation, and extends into the ‘Astral’ in the outward expression of subjective creativity and adventure, learning etc.
Yet you awaken consistently within this domain – planet earth and the physical universe.
This is where your little world is most affected, and to some degree this reality affects your subjective reality of Astral experience – perhaps even more so than the other way around.
Your little world is subject to the greater reality of ‘our little world’ the physical goings on here upon this planet.
This is where subjectivity meets objectivity – this is where you meet resistance and have to deal with things not going the way you want them to...same as me, same as most of us.
This is why the great attraction to Astral, because there is a place where you are the boss because it is all your own creation. I am of course open to correction and certainly can be forgiven for thinking this as I am only going on what is being said and may be totally misinformed or simply misunderstanding what is being shared about Astral.
Zooming in now to what Lionheart said about the military in regards to technology – one would have to be stupid or have some sinister agenda not to acknowledge the military aspect of controlling new technology for its agenda, but please make no mistake – the military is a creation of said culture.
The gadgets we now have which didn’t even exist 10 years ago...
The internet was first used for military purposes and has since been given over for public use.
I have written songs bemoaning the existence of military – war, the profiteering of weapons manufacturing, and while these songs are relative to ‘my little world’ and how I would like thing to be...which is not how they are - and are a record of my own personal journey and attitude, as I said in a previous post, some things I have learned I have found it necessary to unlearn.
Back to the internet...we can map not only what Consciousness is up to but also what individual human egos (unaware of that greater Consciousness) are up to.
Porn is probably in the number one position for popularity, and likely games are way up there as well...this is just a reflection of millions of ‘my little worlds’ doing their individual thing, and it is quiet understandable for that.
Criminals are also taking advantage of what the internet offers.
In every sense, the internet has allowed me to see that ‘my little world’ is not the only ‘little world’ out there.
But also it has shown me that I share a lot of things with others – that my experiences are not as unique as they were before the internet made this quite clear.
So the military is a creation of culture – and extends back to the age of flint spears and other tools of protection...hey we don’t really need to detail the history of technology and military.
What we may need to do though is to focus on when technology began to show itself as coming to the fore – and this happened at the time of Hitler and the Nazis.
For example – never before had there been such a thing as amplification. To be a mere mad genius warlord is one thing but to project your manic voice to a multitude in such a way that every one of the thousands of soldiers from the front to the very back ranks could hear you clearly! How profound and magical and god-like!
Who provided these tools? The Scientists did.
So when the Nazis were overthrown the scientists were kept. Some by the Russians and some by the Americans because both these nations were instrumental in the overthrow, and had to share the spoils and the Scientists were the cream.
Moving on, we see the push to perfect rocket propulsion, we see a flag poked into the surface of the moon, we see craft being sent into our particular neighbourhood of the Galaxy, and more recently we land a robot on the surface of Mars.
Consciousness is working with what it has to work with.We also see other uses for technology – maybe they have no particular significance to the military, and pose no particular threat to the military – but whatever, they are being created and used by human beings for purposes which are all working to increase lifespan, food production, fight diseases, etc etc...and there is an increasing push from many directions for human beings to start thinking about ourselves and each other as One, rather than as from the older paradigm of ‘countries, cultures, politics etc....
Of course, this is still a pretty quiet voice in the wilderness which isn’t really getting through the fog of indoctrination...but it is there nonetheless.
Meantime, Consciousness continues because its agenda is to move from this rock and out into interstellar and while the military may have first grabs to whatever science develops, it is the science itself which comes from the impulse Consciousness itself provides.
For its purpose.
It can be argued that while humanity resists the more co-operative/collective philosophies in favour of profit and consumerism and competition, that it will never be leaving this rock at all...but the truth is, it simply won’t be...at least not in its present form. It can’t.
It would be wonderful to see the biological critter work together for the good of all, but I can say with some great certainty that this will NOT prevent Consciousness from using what it can use in order to create for itself a form which it can leave this world behind.
One might rephrase that to say...Consciousness too, is its ‘own little world’ but it has the advantage of knowing exactly what it wants, how to get it, and how to work with what it has and what supports it and work around that which has no interest, compulsion or desire to support a far greater thing than their own little worlds, dramas, ambitions, politics beliefs etc.
In regard to the military in relation to interstellar exploration etc, it will be unlikely needed in that larger part of this reality. Well the fighting killing part won’t be needed – but the planning, and ability to protect and build upon work as a ‘well oiled machine’ will be an advantage.
I am really only scratching the surface here. But I think the underlying thing is that this is going to happen with or without the majority support of humanity.
It would be nice to think when it finally eventuates that human beings will be living in peace and collective prosperity on a planet which has been shaped into a proverbial paradise – that would be an ideal platform in which to launch from – but as nice as that would be, individual free will etc may mean that the launch happens on the ashes of civilization hell bent focused on their individual little worlds purposefully ignorant of the bigger picture...a sad thing yes, but all is not lost.
And that is the real point. All is not lost. The military will play a big part in ensuring this – as much as it is about protecting citizens and countries etc, the military will above all protect the agenda of Consciousness, especially if the citizens prove to continue to choose death and mayhem for the sake of their little kingdoms, beliefs and manipulations.
I personally don’t see it going that way...but understand for now, that I am among the few.
