Buried Alive

The world is in delicate balance? U.S. armed forces are helping hundreds of thousands of Tsunami survivors. Isn't this a better idea than blowing the living shit out of people, places and things? We are seeing the future, our future when resources are consistently brought to collective constructive purpose. The past however still looms as a deep wave in the psyche. This week conflict breaks out in the devastated areas. Old prejudice and hatred blooms from the shock. People are only now beginning to feel what they have lost. Abandonment and betrayal patterns are coming to light. This is true in the collective, not just the devastated areas. Indonesia is paying a very large karmic debt for their abuses in East Timor. The oppressor will act out in oppressive ways and will be seen. Take a look at your own patterns of oppression. Don't make them real but do see them. You can make new choices beyond the bondage of bondage.

Death is in the air but the heaviness is lifting. As usual, it will take time to be felt at the surface of experience. The only thing you have ever lost is your identification as your own consciousness. All the rest of the drama in the Dream is a distraction from claiming your own consciousness. Dharma and drama are the same thing. They just go round and round. You are not duty bound. You can't fix what is broken. You cannot heal the dilemma of it all. You can fix and heal all you want in the material and spiritual realms but the karma continues. Dharma is the justification of the karma. The path is a sacred rut that goes in circles, most notably a spiral that offers higher ground that in turn will bring you to lower ground, Boddhisatva style. Dissolution from your identification in the mind, in the Dream, in the drama clears suffering for you. If you clear it for you, others may get tired of their suffering but ultimately their suffering is their own movie. Help others as you choose but drop the identification that such efforts will redeem you or them.

This grind of going up and down and round and round is being felt now. The effort of good over bad and bad over good does nothing to solve the problem of suffering. It makes it better in change but in turn it will be worse and on and on. A media report stated that the children of Sri Lanka are taught to enchant upon awakening in the morning that Sri Lanka is paradise. Then, inevitably, the Wheel turns......... The bejeweled isle will be a paradise some time again but suffering goes on. The New York Times pointed out that Sri Lanka has had the most suicide bombers in the world over the years. Their civil war is atrocious and attritious. Religion and caste and all the splits are not mended by unity. The effort to unify only maintains the splits in identification. All the splits of manifestation are products of the mind. The worst is spiritual mind. More will be revealed as these years proceed. The spiritual solutions are a problem. There is inherent denial within dogma. Ascendancy will be seen to promote dissension in descension. What goes up will be slammed down over and over again. Pray and realize that you pray to escape being prey only to be left with the awakening discovery that you are prey to that to which you have prayed. There is nothing wrong with higher powers but there is nothing right with them either. In that grand unconscious identification, great travails are maintained. All of that will go on as it has always gone on. However, you have a choice for you.

One's own pain is so easily projected upon the world. It finally does no one any good, but these are sacred cows indeed. Do-goodism relies upon abject suffering. The good needs bad to stay in business. You aren't bad and you don't have to do good things to save your soul and such. If you want to give and help and so forth, do so easily and simply without all the other holy horseshit. The daily run-of-the-mill consumption of us first worlders destroys more than charity can mend. But this remains largely unconscious in us and continues to be the ruination of the planet. It may sound cynical but the USA now has a military presence in the largest Muslim nation in the world. America doesn't cause tsunamis but it unconsciously will choose to take advantage of such events in the name of good and God. More will be revealed on all of that.

This collective chaos has its effects in the psyche. More of these waves will be mounting as the year and years go on. We have a New Moon in Capricorn on the 10th at 7:03 am EST. The heaviness will lighten, to a degree, for many by the end of the week. Yet the gravity remains. Embodiment, to be born, is to be buried alive. In the last two weeks all this archetypal material has been excavated. The modern world has never seen so many images in real time of corpses bloated in rigor mortis. The desperate dumping of bodies in mass graves, seen in real time, is a kind of breakthrough in the collective psyche. Death and burial and all are so baseline in the human culture, especially religion. In death one faces one's birth. Until this is met consciously, great death scenes will be played out in living high definition color in hundreds of millions of homes and hearts on planet Earth. At the end of the Piscean Age, everything EVERYTHING is coming to consciousness in a theater near you.......... it's called the mind. You can live without it. It can't live without you. This is not a life and death choice. It's a choice.

Choose.

Unwindingly,
