Eric J Pepin


Yesterday, as I was working on finishing up the next installment of the Comet Series of Articles, FedEx delivered a packet of mail from our corporate registered agent in the U.S. It was "Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial" filed in the State of Oregon by Eric Pepin's Higher Balance Institute, LLC. The reason? A discussion on the SOTT Forum that begins HERE.

Well, that was entertaining enough when you think about the fact that the discussion that he objects to was centered on several newspaper articles that describe his close calls with the legal system in Oregon over charges of sex abuse.

The legal document I received is 10 pages long so I'm just going to summarize it here. If you want to read the whole thing (it's hilarious beyond belief!) go HERE for the pdf.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF OREGON

Civil No.: CV '08-0233 HA

COMPLAINT AND DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL

HIGHER BALANCE, LLC, an Oregon
Limited Liability Company, dba HIGHER
BALANCE INSTITUTE, Plaintiff

v.

QUANTUM FUTURE GROUP, INC, a
California corporation, and LAURA
KNIGHT- JADCZYK, Defendants.

Plaintiff Higher Balance LLC, dba Higher Balance Institute ("HBI") files this Complaint against defendants Quantum Future Group, Inc. ("QFG") and Laura Knight-Jadczyk and alleges the following:

...defendants committed intentional torts that were purposefully targeted at HBI within the State of Oregon; defendants knew that HBI is a resident of the State of Oregon; defendants' tortious conduct cause HBI to suffer economic harm within the State of Oregon; HBI's claims arise out of defendants' activities relating to the State of Oregon; and the exercise of jurisdiction over defendants is reasonable in light of their intentional misconduct directed towards a resident of the State of Oregon.

As this Court has specific personal jurisdiction over the defendants, venue is proper in this district and division under 28 U.S.C 1391(a)(3)

General Allegations:

HBI is an Oregon-based company with over 40,000 customers from all over the world. HBI is dedicated to helping its customers relieve stress, reduce anxiety, and achieve emotional balance and spiritual enlightenment through meditation techniques. The majority of HBI's revenues are derived from the online sale of its books and CDs, which are designed to help its customers learn these meditation techniques.

[Etc...]

Defendant QFG operates a website known as Signs of the Times ("SOTT"). QFG posts articles and sponsors forums regarding various conspiracy theories and allegedly corrupt organizations on the SOTT website.

Employees and agents of QFG, including defendant Knight-Jadczyk, serve as administrators and moderators of SOTT forums. QFG employees and agents, including defendant Knight-Jadczyk, post comments and analyses in SOTT forums. These employees and agents act within the course and scope of their agency for QFG when serving as administrators and moderators of the SOTT website and when posting comments and analyses on the SOTT website.

SOTT forums are available to the general public online.

...Many of HBI's existing and potential customers read the SOTT website as a source of alternative media....

FIRST CLAIM FOR RELIEF - Defamation - Libel

....Beginning in May 2006, QFG sponsored a forum on the SOTT website concerning HBI under the heading "COINTELPRO."

Beginning in November 2007, defendants intentionally posted several false, baseless, and derogatory accusations concerning HBI on the SOTT website including, but not limited to:

a. HBI is a "front for pedophilia";
b. HBI is a "cointelpro" organization;
c. Meditation, as sold by HBI, is an act of "falling into confluence with a psychopathic reality";
d. Those associated with HBI must be careful to avoid sexual molestation by HBI members;
e. HBI is conning the public;
f. "Fishy sexual conduct is occurring at HBI; and
g. HBI "leads people more deeply into sleep."

By posting these statements in a public internet forum, defendants have published and communicated false and baseless accusations concerning HBI to third parties, including existing and potential HBI customers.

Defendants' statements tend to subject HBI to hatred, contempt, and ridicule and tend to diminish the esteem, respect, goodwill and confidence in which HBI is held by the public and by its customers.

Defendant made these false statements with knowledge of their falsity or with reckless disregard for their truth.

As a result of defendants' false and defamatory statement, HBI suffered general damages in the form of loss of reputation in an amount to be determined at trial, but in any event, not less than $500,000. HBI has also suffered special damages in the form of lost income in amounts to be determined at trial, but in any event, not less than $834,732.

Defendants defamatory statements are still available to the general public on the SOTT website and are easily found through internet searches relating to HBI. Defendants conduct causes HBI irreparable harm, and HBI is entitled to an injunction preventing defendants' continued defamation of HBI.

SECOND CLAIM FOR RELIEF: False Light

Defendants intentionally gave publicity to matters concerning HBI that placed HBI in a false light before the public. etc

...economic damages ... not less than $834,732.

THIRD CLAIM FOR RELIEF: Intentional Interference with Economic Relations - Interference with Business Relationships

Defendant intentionally interfered with many of these business relationships by communicating the false and defamatory information listed...

...economic damages ... not less than $97,299.

HBI... has also suffered damages in the form of loss of reputation ... damages .... not less than $500,000.

...Defendants conduct was malicious and warrants punitive damages...

FOURTH CLAIM FOR RELIEF: Intentional Interference With Economic Relations - Prospective Economic Advantage

Defendant's interference has diminished the esteem, respect, goodwill, and confidence in which HBI is held by the general public, thereby hindering HBI's ability to obtain many new customers with whom HBI had a prospective business relationship. ... damages to be determined at trial...

...On its First Claim for Relief, that HBI be awarded general and special damages in amounts to be determined at trial, but in any event, not less than $1,334,732, and that defendants be enjoined from their continued defamation of HBI.

...On its Second Claim for Relief, that HBI be awarded damages in an amount to be determined at trial, but in any event, not less than $1,334,732. and that defendants be enjoined from continuing to place HBI in a false light.

...On its Third Claim for Relief, that HBI be awarded damages in an amount to be determined at trial, but in any event, not less than $597,299. plus punitive damages, and that defendants be enjoined from their coninued interference with HBI's prospective business relationships.

...On its Fourth Claim for Relief, that HBI be awarded damages in an amount to be determined at trial, but in any event, not less than $1,205,000 plus punitive damages, and that defendants be enjoined from their continued interference with HBI's business relationships.

... That HBI be awarded pre-judgment and post-judgment interest on all damages recovered.

...That HBI be awarded its costs and disbursements incurred in this action; ...

Harry and David demands a trial by jury on all issues so triable.

Attorneys for Higher Balance Institute

Whoah! That's some heavy duty stuff, eh? Sounds like we just ripped up on that poor guy for no reason at all!

But that's not quite the situation. The original article about Eric Pepin that was brought to our attention on page 5 of the above-mentioned forum thread read as follows:

A 39-year-old Aloha man who promises spiritual awakening through meditation books and CDs he sells on the Internet is facing sex-abuse charges.

Beaverton police Detective Mike Smith said Eric J. Pepin runs what appears to be a cult out of his Higher Balance Institute on Southwest Second Street in Beaverton.

Pepin was arraigned Tuesday in Washington County criminal court on one count of using a child in a display of sexually explicit conduct, two counts of second-degree sexual abuse, and four counts of third-degree sexual abuse. He was released after posting $26,750 cash, or 10 percent of $267,500 bail. A trial was set for Sept. 12.

Using a child in a sexual display is a Measure 11 crime punishable by a mandatory minimum of 5 years and 10 months in prison.

Jamison Dwight Priebe, 21, who works for Pepin and lives at the same address in the 19600 block of Southwest Cooperhawk Court in Aloha, also was arrested on one count each of using a child in a sexual display and third-degree sexual abuse.

Priebe and Pepin turned themselves in at the Washington County Jail last week after a grand jury handed down secret indictments. Priebe was released after posting $25,375 cash bail and is awaiting arraignment Monday.

Smith said a man who is now 20 was 17 and working for Pepin when he allegedly was sexually abused at the Higher Balance office in the 11900 block of Southwest Second Street in Beaverton and at Pepin's former home in the city.

A call to the Higher Balance Institute on Wednesday was answered by a "Personal Star Reach Coach," who referred questions to Pepin's private attorney, Sam Kauffman.

"The charges are false, and we are confident Mr. Pepin will be exonerated," Kauffman said.

Pepin's Web site claims he has located more than 100 missing persons and runaways, along with U.S. Navy submarines, through a psychic ability he calls "remote viewing."

Pepin's meditation systems, which sell for $79 to $149, help customers develop their "sixth sense" and apply it "inward to awaken a dimensional universe within the mind," the Web site says.

According to an affidavit Smith filed with a request for a search warrant, the alleged victim told police that Internet customers who rave about Pepin's teachings are men and women usually older than 35. But, the man said Pepin told him he should recruit "good-looking men" between the ages of 18 and 24 to work for him.

The court record also says Pepin knew the man was 17 when he forced him to perform sex acts.

The boy, Smith wrote, "was taught by Pepin to believe that the sexual contact was only a spiritual necessity." But after a while, the affidavit says, the boy decided he was being used by Pepin, who bought him meals and paid him $200 after sex.

The man contacted Beaverton police in January.

Smith said anyone who may have had underage sexual contact with Pepin should call him at 503-526-2280.

Smith said the man accusing Pepin told police he met one of Pepin's followers at Beaverton Town Square in April 2004. He told Smith the recruiter invited him to meet Pepin and see him demonstrate levitation.

Pepin introduced himself dressed in a robe emblazoned with the words "Master Eric" and a triangular symbol and told the victim to take off his shirt, the detective said.

"It's a cult," Smith said, "anytime you have a guy who fancies himself as the master, the leader."

In another story from Associated Press found HERE, we read:

Beaverton police Detective Mike Smith said Pepin operated the Higher Balance Institute in Beaverton. Smith said the ornate robe emblazoned "Master Eric" turned up during a search.

Well, I've been falsely accused of trying to start a cult myself, so I might ordinarily have had sympathy for Pepin, but when I read the bit about the robe, I blew my tea through my nose. I guess that's why I'm such a failure as a cult-leader (aside from the fact that I'm not interested in the job) - I hardly ever wear anything other than sweats and bedroom slippers and spend all my time working!

In any event, even though a grand jury felt that there was enough evidence to indict Pepin, he was eventually acquitted in trial before a judge as the following report informs us:

Institute leader acquitted of sex charges

HOLLY DANKS - HILLSBORO -- A Washington County Circuit judge called the leader of a metaphysical Internet sales company manipulative and controlling and his testimony unbelievable, even as he acquitted him Wednesday of charges that he had sex with an underage boy.

Judge Steven L. Price, after a five-day trial without a jury, found Eric James Pepin, 40, not guilty of two counts of second-degree sexual abuse, four counts of third-degree sexual abuse and one count of using a child in a display of sexually explicit conduct.

Also acquitted of third-degree sexual abuse and using a child in a pornographic display was Jamison Dwight Priebe, 21, who has worked for Pepin's Higher Balance Institute since he was 18.

"Everybody has stood by me who knows me," Pepin said Wednesday after hugging supporters. "They had faith in me, prayed for me. I told them I wouldn't let them down. I did nothing of what was alleged. I've been nothing but honorable and impeccable."

However, Price said it was "probable that the conduct alleged in all counts occurred," but he wasn't convinced beyond a reasonable doubt. "There's a lack of strong corroboration," such as a date-stamp on a videotape of the sexual encounter, the judge said.

The accuser testified Pepin had him take off his shirt the first day they met at Pepin's Beaverton home in April 2004.

"He was going to try and fix my energy and he needed me to trust him," the accuser said. Pepin touched the teen's "chakra points" on his heart, head and lower abdomen.

"Eric asked me to tell him everything I had done in my life that I was ashamed about," the teen added.

The accuser said Pepin asked him how old he was the first day they met and that he told him the truth.

"He said students had to be 18 because he didn't like parents fussing around," the accuser said.

But within days the two were having sex, including a three-way encounter with Priebe, the youth testified. Pepin called it "crossing the abyss," the accuser said, "surrendering yourself to your teacher, your master."

Pepin testified he is gay and has had sexual relationships with most of his 11 employees, but not before they were 18. Pepin said he gave his accuser a job, even though the teen was a poor worker, and continued to be intimate with him and give him money after he was fired, to help him out.

Stephen A. Houze, Pepin's private defense attorney, called the accuser a liar more than 100 times in his closing argument and noted that Pepin was "the perfect patsy" because society wants to believe the worst of a gay man. Houze said the accuser brought the charges because he wanted to shake down Pepin.

Pepin's Higher Balance Institute, now on Northwest Saltzman Road in Cedar Mill, reached an annual high of $2 million in Internet sales of meditation CDs, tapes and books before his arrest in July.

Pepin touts himself as a psychic and "remote viewer" who has found lost submarines and missing people, and says he created the "psychic pill" Magneurol6-S that enhances brain function, heals nerve damage, heightens paranormal experiences and relieves stress for $79 a bottle.

Andrew Erwin, deputy district attorney, called Higher Balance nothing more than a sex cult run by a "snake oil" salesman who preys on the troubled.

The accuser had nothing to gain by going to police and turned down $250,000 from Pepin to drop the sex charges, Erwin said.

"I'm disappointed," Erwin said of the verdicts. "The judge wants proof beyond all doubt and that's too high a standard."

And now, Pepin wants to sue QFG and yours truly for talking about these articles, published in a newspaper and scattered across the web (though all of them are no longer on the newspaper's website, wonder what's up with that?)!!

Notice that Pepin, himself, revealed his "sex cult" practices in his own testimony. We'll be trying to get transcripts of the trial to publish so our readers can hear it from the horse's mouth; stay tuned for that.

Notice also that Pepin's attorney, Houze, accused the victim of bringing charges because he wanted to shake down Pepin even though the kid turned down 250 K hush money offered by Pepin. Well, maybe that's what gave Pepin the idea of suing me. Only thing is, he's gonna have a hard time collecting his 4.47 million because I don't own a thing, live in a rented house, drive a used car and QFG rarely has more than a grand in the bank at any given time. When we have fund-raisers, the funds are used almost instantly, repaying loans and covering basic expenses for the site and equipment.

It's also humorous that Pepin is suing QFG which only sponsors a world-wide group of independent researchers who, together, make up sott.net. QFG doesn't own sott, nor does QFG have any employees nor any official oversight of anything that the sott.net researchers say or do.

But the bottom line is this: Eric Pepin is convicted out of his own mouth of being a sexual predator. I mean, what kind of teacher of meditation says that he has sex with all his employees? And all of them young men?

Nope, we aren't backing down. We firmly believe, based on available official documents and court records, that Eric Pepin is a danger to innocent people looking for spiritual guidance. Obviously, young guys just looking for sex and money and a good time will be delighted to take his pills, listen to his tapes and attend his retreats. But the wider public who are not aware of these things in Pepin's background, who are not aware that even the judge who acquitted him regretted having to do so, and that the Prosecutor of the case was also convinced that justice had NOT been done, need to be warned about this sexual predator in our midst.

Maybe Eric Pepin will take Sott.net down, we don't know. We don't have money for an expensive defense attorney, we barely stay afloat. But even if that happens (and we hope our readers will help us out now as never before), there are others who know and I don't think that Eric Pepin and all his minions can track down and silence all of them.

Even if you can't give to our legal defense fund, I will appreciate letters of support during this trying time. Write to sott(at)sott.net and I will try to answer each and every one.

And thanks to all our readers for your constant support and encouragement.

Comment:
Oregon police say man abused teen in cult-like operation
"Two Aloha men arrested on sex-abuse charges"
Leader of Washington County Internet company acquitted of sex abuse
Sexual predators in the religious scene

Make no mistake about it: This is an attack on internet freedom and freedom of speech, plain and simple. If Eric Pepin were to win, based on the accusations in the complaint, it would set a precedent that would reverberate across the world. It would make anyone who had a different opinion of view of the world - other than that which is approved by the PTB - subject to suppression and censure. The issues of psychopathy and conspiracy are specifically named in the complaint as well as the connection between religion and making money. If this suit were to succeed, it would significantly chill further discourse about conspiracies, pathological deviance, mind control methods and real cults, including the Judao-Islamo-Christian dominator trio. It would be a disaster.

And so, I think we can begin to notice who is and is not interested in assisting us in publicizing this threat, what so-called "alternative news" sites or "conspiracy theory" sites are willing to come to our aid in facing this threat against all of us on the net.

Certainly there are people and sites that have felt the sting of our critique and we have felt theirs more than once. This is the watershed. As Martin Niemöller said:

"In Germany, they came first for the Communists, And I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist;

And then they came for the trade unionists, And I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist;

And then they came for the Jews, And I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew;

And then . . . they came for me . . . And by that time there was no one left to speak up."

It's time for those who stand for freedom of speech, for our First Amendment Rights, to speak up or forever be silenced. Because that is what will happen if Eric Pepin and the Higher Balance Institute will prevail. He will create the precedent for total suppression for the PTB masters whether that is his intention or not.

Mindcontrolling The Meaning Of "Calm"

The Meaning of "Calm"
Relativity, LA Times Style

Well, I just got hung up on again. This time by an editor on the Los Angeles Times foreign desk. He didn't give me his name.

I had called and attempted, as politely as possible, to give him a correction for the story on the Times, website tonight. This will probably be their front-page lead news story tomorrow morning.

The trouble is, their headline and lead paragraph are just plain wrong. And now, of course, they'll stay wrong in the paper tomorrow.

The headline proclaims: "Palestinian Suicide bomber Shatters Calm of late." The lead sentence then goes on to state that this bomber "shattered a months-long period of relative calm"

The fact is, however, that the truce and this "calm" were shattered long before this. The last suicide bombing against Israeli civilians was Nov. 1, 2004 It took three Israeli lives. Since that time, while Israelis have basked in "relative calm," 170 Palestinian men, women, and children have been killed.

During this LA Times, "relative calm," another 379 Palestinian men, women, and children were injured and maimed. Anyone who has been to the West Bank or Gaza knows what this means: leg bones splintered, intestines torn open, teeth shattered.

Also, of course, during this "calm" over 8,000 Palestinians have been sitting in Israeli prison cells, routinely abused and grotesquely humiliated; over 300 of them children.

None of this mattered to the editor I talked to. He explained that the story said relative calm. When I tried to question this adjective, he hung up the phone. So I guess I'll just have to explain this word for myself.

Maybe he means that relative to 7 Israeli deaths, 170 Palestinian deaths are insignificant. Maybe he means that relative to Israeli grief, Palestinian grief is basically unmentionable. Maybe he means that relative to the weeping of Israeli mothers and fathers, the weeping of Palestinian mothers and fathers multitudes more of them is negligible.

Maybe he means that relative to his power, my attempt to set the record straight is laughably feeble.

Over all, I guess what he means is relatively obvious:

That he can run what he wants, distort what he desires, lead with his lies. I guess he means that facts don't matter, truth is irrelevant, and deceit the order of the day.

I guess he means that Americans are pawns, readers are sheep, and people will just keep swallowing whatever the media choose to dish out.

I hope you'll tell him he's wrong: 213-237-5000 / readers.rep@latimes.com

Alison Weir is Executive Director of If Americans Knew.

Alternative News Commentary: If Americans ever wondered about just how the controlled media shapes and molds and misinforms their minds, then let them wonder no longer. Does the headline in the LA Times constitute a lie? Well, consider the following two titles:

"Palestinian Suicide bomber shatters relative calm of late."

"Palestinian Suicide bomber shatters peace"

Having read the two headlines, the average reader is left with exactly the same impression - that a Palestinian suicide bomber carried out an unprovoked attack and is therefore the agressor.

Conclusion? Technically it is not a lie, but given that it creates an impression in the mind of the reader that is wholly out of step with the reality of the situation, it has exactly the same effect as a lie.

Secret History of the World

If you heard the Truth, would you believe it? Ancient Civilisations. Hyperdimensional realities. DNA changes. Bible conspiracies. What are the realities? What is disinformation?

The Secret History of The World and How To Get Out Alive is the definitive book of the real answers where Truth is more fantastic than fiction. Laura Knight-Jadczyk, wife of internationally known theoretical physicist, Arkadiusz Jadczyk, an expert in hyperdimensional physics, draws on science and mysticism to pierce the veil of reality. Due to the many threats on her life from agents and agencies known and unknown, Laura left the United
States to live in France, where she is working closely with Patrick Rivière, student of Eugene Canseliet, the only disciple of the legendary alchemist Fulcanelli.

With sparkling humour and wisdom, she picks up where Fulcanelli left off, sharing over thirty years of research to reveal, for the first time, The Great Work and the esoteric Science of the Ancients in terms accessible to scholar and layperson alike.

Conspiracies have existed since the time of Cain and Abel. Facts of history have been altered to support the illusion. The question today is whether a sufficient number of people will see through the deceptions, thus creating a counter-force for positive change - the gold of humanity - during the upcoming times of Macro-Cosmic Quantum Shift. Laura argues convincingly, based on the revelations of the deepest of esoteric secrets, that the present is a time of potential transition, an extraordinary opportunity for individual and collective renewal: a quantum shift of awareness and
perception which could see the birth of true creativity in the fields of science, art and spirituality. The Secret History of the World allows us to rededefine our interpretation of the universe, history, and culture and to thereby navigate a path through this darkness. In this way, Laura Knight-Jadczyk shows us how we may extend the possibilities for all our different futures in literal terms.

With over 850 pages of fascinating reading, The Secret History of The World and How to Get Out Alive is rapidly being acknowledged as a classic with profound implications for the destiny of the human race. With painstakingly researched facts and figures, the author overturns long-held conventional ideas on religion, philosophy, Grail legends, science, and alchemy, presenting a cohesive narrative pointing to the existence of an ancient techno-spirituality of the Golden Age which included a mastery of space and time: the Holy Grail, the Philosopher's Stone, the True Process of Ascension. Laura provides the evidence for the advanced level of scientific and metaphysical wisdom possessed by the greatest of lost ancient civilizations - a culture so advanced that none of the trappings of civilization as we know it were needed, explaining why there is no 'evidence' of civilization as we know it left to testify to its existence. The author's consummate synthesis reveals the Message in a Bottle reserved for humanity, including the Cosmology and Mysticism of mankind Before the Fall when, as the ancient texts tell us, man walked and talked with the gods. Laura shows us that the upcoming shift is that point in the vast
cosmological cycle when mankind - or at least a portion of mankind - has the opportunity to regain his standing as The Child of the King in the Golden Age.

If ever there was a book that can answer the questions of those who are seeking Truth in the spiritual wilderness of this world, then surely The Secret History of the World and How to Get Out Alive is it.

The Secret History of The World and How To Get Out Alive by Laura Knight-Jadczyk, published by Red Pill Press, Preface by Patrick Rivière €35.00 (867 pages).

The Da Vinci Code put 'on trial'

BBC
Wednesday, 23 February, 2005

Museum director Alessandro Vezzosi gave an opening statement
Art experts and historians are staging what has been described as a mock trial to examine the claims made in hit novel The Da Vinci Code.

The "trial" is being held in Vinci, Italy, and an opening statement was made by Alessandro Vezzosi, director of a Leonardo Da Vinci museum, on Friday.

"Leonardo is misrepresented and belittled," he said beforehand.

No-one will represent the book but many fans are expected to attend the event in Leonardo Da Vinci's hometown. [...]

For a much more interesting and informative look at the Da Vinci code, see Laura Knight-Jadczyk's new article The True Identity of Fulcanelli and The Da Vinci Code.

The Conspiracy, Deception… And A Coalition Of Lies

The World imperfect as it seemed,
Was our only place to live our dreams.
This all before our current situation,
Engineered by a Force we can barely mention.

Through its Members Of Prominence,
It secured its dominance.
Through these Keepers Of Secrets
Who rule through our ignorance.
They decided it was time to clear the stage,
And hide their intent within chaos and rage.

An age-old formula will be employed for this chore,
It will work again efficiently as many times before.
It is tried and true but to us unseen,
For our focus will be directed to the glitter and sheen.

Firstly they needed our minds to LOCK,
And knew it could only be done with SHOCK.
Then they insert false images of phantoms and ghouls,
And imminent destruction of our homes and schools.

DECEPTION is a tool and the name of the game,
So the Evil can work when we know not its name.
The consolidation of power is now at hand,
On a level before never seen by man.

From electronification of money to the control of water,
To install a new reality, a New World Order.

Our Freedoms died under the 9-11 sun,
As the world is now hostage to the ‘American’ gun.
It was agents of the MOSSAD and the CIA
Who crashed those planes into the towers that day.

Search the web for 'pentalawn' and '9-11 coup',
Before these clues disappear from view.
And never be afraid to stand up and speak,
For the Freedom you've lost is the Freedom you seek.

The U.S., Israel, Zionists, And Terrorism

"Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer..."

I've heard this saying over the years in movies, stories, and maybe
an occasional song. It's not a very difficult phrase to grasp within the
context of the movie or story, which simply implies that one's enemy
must never know that you consider them as such, so as to provide an
efficient means to keep an eye on them. Another variable could mean
a friend who was clandestinely found out to not have your best interest
in mind, but cannot be ostracized because of certain secrets you both
share. Many of us have relationships with various friends that we kind
of  place in categories forming concentric rings around us. We tolerate
them not because of WHO they are 100% characteristically speaking,
but for the smaller percentage you both have in common, which may
or may not qualify them to be amongst your most 'inner' circle.

Not only individuals, but groups and even entire countries experience
these 'quirks' in their relationships. For example, we find the strange
and unusual relationship between Israel and the United States. A
relationship so diplomatically dissimilar to all other countries, it fits
more into the dynamic of the 'barely-manageable orphaned child and
its over-protective foster parent'. A child that for the most part can
do no wrong, and on the occasions that it has gone too far, receives only
a slight reprimand or slap on the wrist.

With the enormous suffering and death resulting from the Nazi's 'Final
Solution', it is perfectly understandable how overwhelming sympathies
were generated; but also skillfully manipulated to extend the American
shield over a fledgling state of displaced people. What's not so clear is the
true nature of the relationship at this moment in time. One thing I find
curious about the Israeli/US relationship is the unusually large sums of
money granted every year (almost US$8 billion in 1997 alone). For a
country of about 11 million people, what in the world could all this
financing be for? One obvious result that has recently come to light is
the fact that Israel has been a nuclear power for a long time, with an
arsenal of about 400 warheads. The irony is that any search for
'Weapons Of Mass Destruction' in the Middle East should have been
centered there! But this alone and the fact that the Israeli Armed Forces
are among the best equipped in the world, does not fully account for
these huge expenditures.

What about Iraeli Intelligence and the companies it oversees 
doing business with the U.S.?

Could it be that the 'orphan' we took under our shield, skillfully and
subtly manipulated us over the years to finance an intricate and
sophisticated apparatus to spy on us? An apparatus that we now have
no choice at this point but to keep financing? One alarming discovery
is the disturbing omnipresence Israel has in our telephone system.
They apparently have the ability to tap into or keep a record of every
phone call made within the U.S. With this potential, would they
deliberately listen in on the sensitive correspondence of powerful people
or elected officials, and use this information to their benefit?
Is BLACKMAILING THE U.S. beyond the limits of the Zionist in control
of the Israeli war machine? Somehow I don't think so within the
enigmatic 'irony of ironies' that is the Israeli/U.S. relationship.

Furthermore, news of these subjects are curiously missing from
mainstream media. One can only hope to find more information from
an excellent alternative news site.

Isn't it intensely ironic that while Israel implores the world to 'never
forget' the holocaust, they've been actively orchestrating the deaths
and disappearance of hundreds of thousands of Palestinian people for
many years? Or maybe it's not the same from their viewpoint. Maybe
it's because the few Zionistic Jews in control of the 'death machine' consider
themselves 'chosen', so no one else feels pain the same way they do? If
this is the case now, within living memory of the lessons of history, could
there be ANYTHING beyond their willingness to perpetrate so long as it
brings them closer towards their nefarious goal?

Rethinking the whole 9-11 incident, there seem to be more and more
evidence brought forward to indicate that Israeli Intelligence (MOSSAD)
may have had something to do with it!   I guess only time will tell!

"As the preacher, I'm working with the crowd, watching the crowd, trying to bring them to that high point at a certain time in the evening. I let everything build up to that moment when they're all in ecstasy. The crowd builds up and you have to watch that you don't stop it. You start off saying you've heard that tonight's going to be a great night; then you begin the whole pitch and keep it rolling."

For Marjoe, who had seen it a million times, the divine moment of religious ecstasy had no mystical quality at all. It was a simple matter of group frenzy that had its counterpart in every crowd.

"It's the same as a rock-and-roll concert. You have an opening number with a strong entrance; then you go through a lot of the old standards, building up to your hit song at the end."

The hit song, however, was spiritual rebirth, the product of a time-tested recipe for evangelical religion to which the preacher and every member of the audience contribute some small but active ingredient. Afterwards, according to Marjoe, the only fitting encore to the overwhelming moment of being saved is a personal demonstration of the power of that newfound faith. This is the motivating factor that prompts speaking in tongues, also known as the 'receiving of the holy ghost.' As Marjoe explained it, this well- known evangelical tradition required even greater participation on the part of the tongues recipient and the entire audience.

"After you've been saved," Marjoe continued, "the next step is what they call 'the infilling of the Holy Spirit.' They say to the new convert, 'Well, now you're saved, but you've got to get the Holy Ghost.' So you come back to get the tongues experience. Some people will get it the same night; others will go for weeks or years before they can speak in tongues. You hear it, you hear everyone at night talking in it in the church, and they're all saying, 'We love you and we hope you're going to get it by tonight.' Then one night you go down there and they all try to get you to get it, and you go into very much of a trance - not quite a frenzy, but it is an incredible experience.

"During that moment the person forgets all about his problems. He is surrounded by people whom he trusts and they're all saying, 'We love you. It's okay. You're accepted in Christ. We're with you, let it go, relax.' And sooner or later, he starts to speak it out and go dut-dut-dut. Then everyone goes, 'That's it! You've got it!' and the button is pushed and he will in fact start to speak in tongues and just take off: dhandayelomosatayleesaso... and on and on."

Marjoe paused. We were dumbfounded by his demonstration, although he hadn't gone into the jerking, trance-like ecstasy that is commonly associated with the tongues moment. ...Yet even in this restrained demonstration, he seemed almost uncannily to be triggering some innate releasing or babbling mechanism. We asked him how he brought it about.

"You'll never get it with that attitude," he joked. Then he went on to explain the true nature of the experience.

"Tongues is something you learn, " he emphasized. "It is a releasing that you teach yourself. You are told by your peers, the church and the Bible - if you accept it literally - that the Holy Ghost spake in another tongue; and you become convinced that it is the ultimate expression of the spirit flowing through you. The first time maybe you'll just go dut-dut-dut-dut and that's about all that will get out. Then you'll hear other people and the next night you may go dut-dut-dut-UM-dut-DEET-dut-dut and it gets a little better. The next thing you know, it's elahandosatelayeekcondelemosandreyaseya... and it's a new language you've got down."

Except that, according to Marjoe, it's not a real language at all. Contrary to most religious understanding, speaking in tongues is by no means passive spiritual possession. It must be actively acquired and practiced. Although the "gift" of tongues is a product of human and not supernatural origin, Marjoe displayed tremendous respect for the experience as an expression of spirituality and fellowship.

"I really don't put it down," he said. "I never have. It's just that I analyze it and look at it from a very rational point of view. I don't see it as coming from God and say that at a certain point the Holy Spirit zaps you with a super whammy on the head and you've 'gone for tongues' and there it is. Tongues is a process that people build up to. Then, as you start to do something, just as when you practice the scales on the piano, you get better at it."

During his years on the Bible belt circuit, Marjoe came to see the evangelical experience as a form of popular entertainment, a kind of participatory divine theater that provided its audiences with profound emotional rewards.

"The people out there don't see it as entertainment," he confessed, "although that is in fact the way it is. Those people don't go to movies, they don't go to bars and drink, they don't go to rock-and-roll concerts - but everyone has to have an emotional release. So they go to revivals and they dance around and talk in tongues. It's socially approved and that is their escape.

"It was my duty to give them the best show possible," he said. "Say you've got a timid little preacher in North Carolina or somewhere. He'll bring in visiting evangelists to keep his church going. We'd come in and hit the crowd up and we were superstars. It's the charisma of the evangelist that the audience believes in and comes to see.

"When I was traveling, I'd see someone who wanted to get saved in one of my meetings, and he was so open and bubbly in his desire to get the Holy Ghost. It was wonderful and very fresh. But four years later I'd return and that person might be a hard-nosed intolerant Christian because he was better than anyone who drinks and better than the world because he had Christ. That's when the danger comes in. People want an experience. They want to feel good and their lives can be helped by it. But then as you start moving into the operation of the thing, you get into controlling people and power and money. "Moon's [Unification Church] is doing the same thing I do, only he's taken it one step further. He's suggesting to people that he IS the Messiah. In my religion, the old-time religion, it's total blasphemy to suggest that. Moon has gone too far, but that's a very heavy number on people, because everyone wants to meet a Messiah."

Marjoe was quick to point out that Moon's preaching powers, like his own, were by no means divine or even innate. Marjoe acknowledged that his power over an audience derived primarily from the skills he perfected as a child, techniques of rhetoric and public speaking that have passed down from the Greeks.

"It's the same whether you're a preacher, a lawyer or a salesman," he told us. "You start off with a person's thought processes and then gradually sway him around to another way of thinking in a very short time."

Many of the techniques he commanded were simple and age-old, but so effective that they proved equally powerful even when an audience had been explicitly forewarned of their use. Toward the end of our conversation, Marjoe told us a story that revealed the fineness of his skills. In contrast to the massive physical experiences, intense group rituals and intimate personal crises that [are popular in the New Age crowd], Marjoe demonstrated how words alone, artfully manipulated, may be used to influence groups and individuals, even to the point of evoking the overwhelming emotional response of being "saved."

"I lecture in about twenty colleges a year," he began, "and I do a faith- healing demonstration - but I always make them ask for it. I tell them that I don't believe in it, that I use a lot of tricks; and the title of the lecture is 'Rhetoric and Charisma,' so I've already told them how large masses are manipulated by a charismatic figure. I've given them the whole rap explaining how it's done, but they still want to see it. So I throw it all right back at them. I say, 'No, you don't really want to see it.' And they say, 'Oh, yes. We do. We do!' And I say, 'But you don't believe in it anyway, so I can't do it.' And they say, 'We believe. We believe!' So after about twenty minutes of this I ask for a volunteer, and I have a girl come up and I say, 'So you want to feel better?' You're just up here for a good time and you want to impress all these people and you want to make an ass out of me and an ass out of this whole thing, so why don't you go back and sit down?' I really get hard on her, and she says, 'No, no, I believe!' And I keep going back and forth until she's almost in tears. And then, even though this is in a college crowd and I'm only doing it as a joke, I just say my same old line, In the name of Jesus! And touch her on the head, and WHAM! They fall down flat every time!”

[Conway, Flo, Siegelman, Jim. 1978. Snapping: America’s Epidemic of Sudden Personality Change. Lippincott, Williams and Wilkins.]

So the programming begins. During the early contacts, a potential convert can be manipulated with absolute precision by the rhetorical ploys described by Marjoe. Conversations using similar Neuro Linguistic Programming techniques also build rapport, as does the use of confrontation and direct emotional assault.

Once the individual has been drawn into the teaching, they are bombarded with ideas and doctrines that they cannot fit together while at the same time being led through ceremonies or rituals that induce intense emotional highs and peak experiences.

They are then subjected to more personal encounters in which these experiences are given the prescribed interpretation that is being inculcated. During this period, they are usually involved in intensive repetitive things, which can be as simple as the "order of worship" in an ordinary church. There can be orders to "stand up, sit down, kneel, pray, sing, stand up, sit down, sing, pray" and so on. More intense formats include chanting and meditation that can induce physical and psychic highs. The end result is, of course, that all of this STOPS THE MIND! And when that happens, the individual is completely open to suggestion and command.

The convert is instructed at this time to "refrain from doubt," and "do not question the wisdom of the teaching." The oldest version of this mind program is, of course, what we consider to be the standard religious teachings. But we can certainly see from all of the above that they are as much mind control as any New Age teaching or so-called cult. As a matter of fact, the key to being a Christian is "the surrender of the intellect, the emotions, and the will." To whom? Well, it's said that it is to the "One, True God." But would the "One True God" really forbid doubt and questioning if there was no doubt or question that he WAS the "One, True God?"

In the end, however, the result of all of these programs is the same: under the cumulative pressures of whatever specific mode of programming is employed, the individual's will gives way and they slide into a state of mind in which they literally are no longer capable of thinking for themselves.

This type of comprehensive assault strikes at the very heart of consciousness by undermining the processes of thinking and reflection that are crucial to individual awareness and Free Will.

Yet, the converts and adherents of religions and cults or many "new age teachings," have a different name for what is happening to them: HAPPINESS! They have found PEACE! In the labor for the cult, they are in a daily state of spiritual high, an emotional peak experience that never ends! And, if it does falter for just a moment or two, the leaders and associates work quickly to bolster the high - to get them back down to the church for another infusion! And they go because then they can return to the state of bliss that is their reward or unquestioning devotion.

Successful self-help therapy, religious or New Age philosophy graduates often achieve a sustained state of euphoria. Their problems are solved because - well, because they HAVE no problems! They have stopped worrying about the things that were bothering them. They no longer strive to change and grow and learn and do and accomplish. They are content in their condition of a shutoff mind, their state of not thinking.

Conway and Siegelman ask:

“What kind of cultural environment breeds this widespread need to shut off the mind? It could be argued that the need is universal, that everyone -from Athenians to Sufis to voodoo tribesmen to modern Americans - must have some periodic release from the ordeal of being human. In that sense, the rituals and techniques which throughout history have been used to create peak experiences and moments of enlightenment may be looked on as vital sources of rest and relaxation for the mind, momentary breathing spells that hold great powers of insight, healing and renewal.

But what value can there be in engineering these experiences to shut down the workings of the mind altogether, to persistently stunt the processes of thought and leave people numb to their own feelings and the world around them? Throughout history, this systematic stilling of human awareness has proved an efficient method of controlling members of tribes, societies and whole nations in which little value is placed upon individuality. The state of mind it produces has a tradition that dates back to the dawn of civilization.

In the remote bush country of Australia, aboriginal tribes still engage in rituals perfected more than 16,000 years ago to induce a state of mind in their adolescents that is surprisingly similar to the plight of many of society's brightest youth today and people of all ages.

In recent years, aboriginal Dream Time has been hailed as a state of profound sophistication in human awareness. Anthropologists point to the aborigine's physical endurance, spiritual satisfaction and telepathic powers as marks of advanced evolution in a tribe that may represent humankind's longest unbroken line of cultural development. However, they make the error of implying that this efficient and admittedly remarkable form of social control in a primitive, unchanging environment holds some promise for the future of our vastly more complex and fast-changing technological society.” [Conway and Siegelman, 1978]

We need to make careful note that this mode of consciousness exists for the very purpose of keeping the aborigine PRIMITIVE and UNCHANGING! It's no surprise that they still live as they did many thousands of years ago. That should give us pause!

“In all the world, there is nothing quite so impenetrable as a human mind snapped shut with bliss. No call to reason, no emotional appeal can get through its armor of self-proclaimed joy.” [Ibid.]

It doesn't matter who it is, whether it is a graduate of some group therapy, a born-again Christian, a meditator, or the follower of this week's channel o'choice. If you ask a question, the individual will spin around and around in circles of nonsensical beliefs and dogma. If you interrupt and re-ask your question, they simply start right where they left off, or go back to the beginning and start over again.

Such people are not just simply incapable of carrying on a conversation they are completely programmed. And they don't have to be worked on by aliens or secret government mind control programs to get that way.

The indoctrincation and mind programming offered by modern mainstream religion by itself is a dangerous thing, but when mixed with the rampant patriotism and scaremongering that form the political policies of a burgeoing fascist state, then there can only be one outcome. The world has seen it happen once in the last 70 years. There are those who have been sounding the warning bells...ignore them at your peril...

Why Religion?? (The Sorcerer and The Anthill)

When I was a boy I wondered about the different cultures of the world, and especially how strange it seemed to me their approach to worship. Being raised Christian, I was becoming aware of the weird paradox of preaching 'tolerance' for others and their different cultures, and the distinct expressing of 'intolerance' whenever comparisons are drawn.

In succeeding years I was able to peer a little deeper into other religious practices, and was amazed to see how wonderfully strange and unfamiliar were the elements of their faith. From Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Judaism, Christianity, and others... all alien in a dogmatic comparison to one another to some degree, but absolutely familiar in others, particularly - the preaching of 'tolerance' and 'charity'.

The more I studied this, the more my mind began to wrestle with a peculiar inconsistency. If 'tolerance and charity' were the unshakable cornerstones they're proselytized to be, then why is it that these exemplary principles are so easily discarded or forgotten when the self-serving needs of a few, stirs one's faith towards deadly ends? Why are these principles which seem to be understood so completely on a personal level as an unchangeable LAW, allowed to be wiped away by the will of another? It is evident that Religion has been consistently used in this way as long as Mankind can remember. It seems also that the more zealously one adhears to his faith, the more susceptible they are to manipulation.

Religion, where is thy strength?

The history of the human race provides easy reference to unbelievably numerous examples of conflict with religious overtones. Incidents where the DIFFERENCES in the methods of worship are twisted, misrepresented, demonized, and then used as a tool to manipulate the mind of a nation into thinking unspeakable thoughts about the believers of that faith. This has happened, will happen again and again, and IS happening now.
Why is this...?

What IS Religion anyway?

Could it be something completely NOT what we think it is?

If we can DARE to think of ways it may not be what we think it is, how would our minds proceed to quantify such a concept?

INTRODUCTION:
The purpose for this short story is to show a new concept. There is some knowledge that simply cannot be introduced using intellect alone, or even for that matter, an everyday frame of reference. Certain knowledge once introduced, can not only change ideas, but entire paradigms. Though not claiming that THIS is such knowledge, it is left open for the reader to decide its value. This is a story of correspondence to shed light on certain relationships the Human Race may have with certain beings beyond our total comprehension. It is told in rhyme from the perspective of a Dark Sorcerer in our world, and the relationship he creates with beings unable to totally comprehend him.

My Fear Of Hunger Is All That I Know
This Must Not Happen, So My Power Must Grow

Under Cover Of Night, New Sources I Find
I Must Lurk And Hide So I Can Feed On The Blind
So Along These Paths I Make My Day...

(Oh! Something Curious Just Down The Way!)

Tiny Whiffs Of Smoke Spewing From The Ground?
What Could Be The Source Of This Thing I've Found?
I Will Proceed Closer, To See What I See
So I May Know This Sight That Has Come Before Me

Upon My Approach, I Carefully Examined
And Saw Something I Could've Barely Imagined
A Tiny Ant Upon A Tiny Hill,
Spewing Forth An Essence, Upon The Air To Fill


THE APPEALING
An Essence As Sweet As A Goddess's Perfume
Overtook My Senses With Every Plume
The More I Smelled, The More I Inhaled

My Understanding Akin To Normal Usage

This Tiny Voice Came From The Ant!
Much Demanding And Pleading For Wishes To Grant!
I Listened To This Ant Upon Its Mound
And Noticed It Responded To Sorcerer's Sound

The Sound Confirmed Its Method Of Pleading
Which Increased The Yield Of Its Energy's Bleeding
Should This Ant Die, I Began To Wonder
My Quest For "Why", Will Be Pulled Asunder

I Wouldn't Know "How", Or Even "Where"
To Find Such Food So Ready To Bare
I Shall Hide Myself And Engage Its Mind
To Learn Of Others With Might Of Kind


A CHOICE TO SURRENDER
With Sorcerer's Sound I Prodded And Tweaked
To See The Image To Which It Speaks
So Once Fully Revealed, I Will Finally Know
The Method Of Cloaking That I Should Go

Ahh.. Image Thus Seen... What Lack Of Vision
Must Stay My Course, Not Forsake My Mission
And Remember This Beast Has Great Potential
Despite Its Image Of Simple Betrayal

With Sorcerer's Magic I Donned My Cloak
And Encounter This Mind With Mirrors And Smoke
And Respond To Its Begging And Simple Demands
In The Manner Of Its Thinking Of Such Who Commands

I Burst Into Its Vision With Blinding Light
Which Suffered It's Mind A Terrible Fright
So I Lied: "FEAR NOT FOR I AM IT WHO YOU SEEK..."
"I HAVE GRANTED THEE AUDIENCE, KNEEL BEFORE ME AND SPEAK!"

"Oh Great Zhra Of The Zhred.." The Insect Said,
"In Faith I Have Suffered, I've Starved, And I've Bled
I'm Your Humble Servant Skaaa Of The Zhred Sub-Emergence
And I've Summoned You In Faithful Worship And For Assistance!"

"I Have Broken Away, From My Caste And Clan
To Find My Own Meaning, The Best Way I Can
I've Called Out To You, For You're The Creator Of The Zhred
And Ask For New Meaning, New Direction, And Vred"

I Continued: " SKAAA Of ZHRED LONG AGO I CHOSE THEE
FOR THE PATH THAT LEADS TO THIS DAY BEFORE ME...
I WILL GIVE THEE NEW MEANING AND DIRECTION TO FIND
AND OVERFLOW THEE WITH VRED-SUGAR,
WHICH IS WEALTH TO YOUR KIND."

"THOU MEANING IS THAT I HAVE CHOSEN THEE
FOR ALL TO HEAR THEE SPEAK FOR ME."
"THOU DIRECTION IS TO GO FORTH AND PREACH
AND BRING HITHER WHO LISTEN TO GUIDE AND TEACH."

"Oh Great Zhra Of The Zhred, I'm Not Worthy Of This Task!
On Sight They Will Kill, With Questions Later To Ask"
"SURRENDER TO ZHRA YOUR MIND/BODY TO PROTECT
FOR MY POWER TO FLOW FREELY, AND MY FEAR TO PROJECT"

I Placed Near The Hill, Three Sugar Cubes From My Sill
Then Contrived To Show Skaaa, This Miracle Fulfilled
"BEHOLD SKAAA OF ZHRED, I HAVE FULFILLED ALL YOUR WISHING
NOW DEFFER NOT FROM THE TASK TO COMPLETE YOUR MISSION"


SACRED MATHEMATICS
As I Spoke And Listened, To Myself I Remarked
Beings Of Such Potential, Minds Cloudied For Dark
I Will Inspire A Structure, To This Mind To Build
That Will Capture This Essence, And Alert Me When Filled

I Continued: "ALL WHO FOLLOW WILL BE MY COLLECTION,
AND ALL MY COLLECTION MUST FOLLOW YOUR DIRECTION"

"OF THE CALLING OF ZHRA, THOU TEACH THEM THE METHOD
IN A TEMPLE OF ZHRA WHICH ALL WILL HOLD BLESSED
THIS TEMPLE OF ZHRA WILL BE MY HOUSE
WITH CALLING AND FIRE FOR WORSHIP UNDOUSED"

"BEHOLD THE SACRED MATH FROM WHICH TO BUILD THIS PLACE

AND AT ALL SUCH GATHERINGS IN THE BEGINNING YOU STAND
AND INVOKE MY PRESENCE BY YOUR COMMAND"
"AND MY COLLECTION MUST GATHER WITH REGULAR TIMING,
TO ENSURE MY LOVING BESTOWMENT OF TIDINGS"


WEALTH AND POWER
"THIS SO THAT ALL WILL COME AND SEE
SKAAA THE POWERFUL ONE, WHO REPRESENTS ME"

"I WILL GRANT THEE THE POWER TO DO MYSTERIOUS THINGS
FOR ALL EARS TO HEAR, AND FOR ALL EYES TO BLING
I WILL GRANT BLESSINGS TO ALL, BY THE STRENGTH OF THEIR CALL
AND TO THINE ENEMIES MY JUDGEMENT, THEIR SENTENCE, AND FALL"

"I WILL BE WITH THEE ALWAYS, SO FEAR NOT A CLASH

JUST ASK IN MY NAME, AND THROUGH YOU I WILL LASH!"


OTHERS WITH MIGHT
Skaaa left His Mound, To Go Deep Underground
To Speak To All Zhred Of This Vision Profound
With Sorcerer's Magic, I Followed With Interest
This Trip To Zhred, Seeking New Minds To Infest

Skaaa Spoke To All, But Was Mainly Ignored
The Message Rejected, From A Messenger Deplored
Through Skaaa How Can I Gain, The Trust Of His Swarm?
Then I remembered Their Minds All Cloudied And Shorn

Phenomena Through Magic, These Minds Seem To Rather
So Skaaa Started To Show, And A Big Swarm Had Gathered
With Each Sight And Sound, More Minds Were Swayed
And At The End Of Each Show, More Minds Have Stayed

Skaaa's Connection To Zhra, Undeniable By Then
A Messenger Deplored, Has Transformed To A Friend

These New Minds Now Eager, To Hear And Be Taught
How To Call Upon Zhra,(And Have Their Essences Caught)
A Multitude Now Ready To Leave Zhred's Border
Following Skaaa To The Site, To Found His New Order


DARK ILLUMINATION
My Collection Came Together At The Site Of The Hill
Planning The Temple Of Zhra, This Holy Site To Build
Many Days And Nights, Toiled They Without End
For Finish They Must Soon, So The Great Zhra Can Descend

When The Temple Was Finished, My Collection Poured In
Then Skaaa Taught Them The Call, For All Soon To Begin
With Magic I Observed, Eager To See What Would Happen
Come Alive My Machine Did! But Soon Started To Slacken

I Studied The Problem, But Soon Noticed This
That Not All Who Called Zhra, Could Send Out The Mist
So I Inspired Skaaa's Mind To Issue A Decree:
"ALL WORK IN MY HOUSE MUST PROGRESS THROUGH DEGREES"

While Planning The Degrees For My Collection To Sort
A Curious Thing Happened To One Who Was Caught
One Of The Enthralled, Who Could Send Out The Call
Morphed Into A Being Who Could See Me And All!

After It Changed, It Just Disappeared!
And I Realized At Once Something That I Feared
The Insects That Could Sing, Were Ready To Ascend
To A New Form Of Being, Impossible To Tend

So From The Higher Degrees More Energy Must Bleed
To Keep Them From Morphing, And Guaranteeing My Feed
And The Ones Who Call Less, Can Further The Cause
To Service The Machine, As Their Duty's Call

Some Of My Rivals Have Started To Wonder
Of My Power And Strength They Contrived To Ponder
I Will Let A Few In For All Others To Stall
And Head This High Order, A New Sorcerer's Cabal

Our Mission Is To Deceive And Bleed Lower Kinds
To Keep Them Docile, Obedient, And Blind
To Grow Our Power And Strength To No End
So We Can Be The Rulers In This World Of Men

Inner Yearning

'Inner Yearning' is one of the mysteries of the human condition. It is as ambiguous as it is sorrowful, with a nostalgic essence that rushes outwards and withdraws like the tides on a hidden beach. It is a profound longing for an ideal condition of which we cannot seem to visualize, but paradoxically struggle to remember. This creates a confusing sense of 'loss' for the human being, resulting in painful lessons and questions whose answers must be found.

How incalculable would be the power to the ones who can build an ideology that could reach out and interface seemlessly with this yearning? How invaluable as a tool would this apparatus be, that the 'Keepers Of Secrets' could wield to direct vast multitudes of human souls? How imeasurable would be the potential to control the day to day affairs of humanity from the unified thoughts of billions of people?

I ask you now -
Hasn't THIS already occured?
