The Epicenter of Peace

in #politics7 years ago

The only way "we the people" can crack through the corruption is to see the corruption on our own team. Not just the other team. The game itself is evil. Unless you can see the network, you will be controlled by it.

When we pluck out the log in our own eye, other people may be more amenable to removing their splinters.

Kill yr idols
With sonic death
It's the end of the world
When confusion is sex
--Sonic Youth

It is a new Byzantine Iconoclasm. We tilt at statues quixotically while allowing acts of pure depravity, and no one can make it stop but me. You. That guy. That lady. Those children. Each solitary unit of humanity, acting according to innate, compassionate, Good.

Candide, after experiencing Siddhartha Gautama level picaresque, determined to tend his own garden. Popes and kings, criminals and idiot mobs populate Dr. Pangloss' "perfect world", to be sure, so what is left for me to do but apply love and effort to my garden and make that tiny postage stamp a sanctuary?

This is why I say:

I am the epicenter of Peace.
And so are you.

No idol will guide us. No hero will rescue us. It may or may not be the end of the world. But I can still use my will and skill to create more care. I can feel down into people and make things that call to their higher self.

I can tend my garden: literally, put in simple manual labor, a divine meditation when freely chosen.

I can tend my garden: metaphorically, put in time and care for everyone and everything I touch, with Mindful Awareness.

Sometimes gardening is ruthless. Hacking back branches in the Fall, removing invasive pests, wacking the weeds...destroying the defunct is absolutely critical to nurturing the abundant, otherwise it becomes a disease vector.

Corruption in the mightiest branches of our control matrix must be cut down. I really loved that maple tree we used to have on our parkstrip, but I was relieved when the city removed her...BEFORE the next windstorm sent her smashing down on our roof!

The only way everyone can get on the same page and fight corruption is to take responsibility for our own representatives, and prune out the affected limbs. Only the ones with the most moral vitality can serve us in convincing people wearing different team jerseys to have any inkling to do the same.

Kill yr idols. No one--and no institution--is too big to fall this Fall. Raise your voice to speak truth and deliver sonic death to the psychopathic hypocrites who have insinuated themselves into the bleeding heart of the left--AND the sycophantic brains of the right. It's the end of the parasite's world, not the host of billions of regular people.

I feel somewhat guided to write this now because i am delving into the sacred feminine archetype in preparation for my next Medicine Bag, the High Priestess. At this Kali Yuga moment, confusion is sex. I prepare to receive strange knowledge from behind the veil.

Every single day I am exposed to gender politics and much of it is devastatingly wounded and wounding. Sexual abuse is not called The Sacred Wound for nothing. It is the simplest technique for Wetiko to spread. Evil is too often a venereal disease.

Kill yr idols. You are the epicenter of Peace. As am I. This is just my ripple outward. Hoping to resonate until the overwhelming vibration becomes Loving Kindness, Peace, and Joy.

Here is an excerpt from Chief Arvol Lookinghorse:

Each of us is put here in this time and this place to personally decide the future of humankind.

Did you think the Creator would create unnecessary people in a time of such terrible danger?

Know that you yourself are essential to this world. Understand both the blessing and the burden of that. You yourself are desperately needed to save the soul of this world. Did you think you were put here for something less? In a Sacred Hoop of Life, there is no beginning and no ending.

Welcome to Steem, dearest friend! I am jumping up and down with excitement to see you here!!!!

Hmm, so many to choose from to make a shortlist. I made a couple suggestions on your post. I have a lot of fun conversing with @shasta , she always makes insightful replies and posts gorgeous scenes from Alaska. @generikat is a hilarious blogger. @lindsaybowes also has great posts and replies. @artedellavita posts beautiful photos of her vintage treasures, like pages from that magazine, "Victoria". @mother2chicks is her friend and posts much chickeny goodness. @johnjgeddes writes amazing fiction. @ura-soul writes things akin to this post of mine. @cognoscere does some great photologs. Ack I feel bad making a list because I enjoy everyone I follow for different reason and I don't want to leave anyone out <3

Matt and Badawg are on here, too. @mattlovell and @dawg-boy.

preparation for my next Medicine Bag, the High Priestess.

After reading your very deep post, I have not one single doubt that the "High Priestess bag", is going to be a total knock your socks off, piece of work. Preparation is having the right spice to add at the right time.

Your comment makes my day. Not just the kind words of praise, but particularly the wise words regarding timing. Wise, pertinent, and kind. Thank you, @bashadow

Beautiful thoughts and a powerful message to this word.

Thanks for that, and thamks so much for stopping by. I am also following now, cheers!

You're welcome & thanks for following!
