Corporate totalitarianism: Aldous Huxley (and Goering) nail it

by Philip Roddis

I never read Brave New World but when an American unknown to me agreed on FB with my view of Hillary Clinton, I looked her up to find this on her Timeline:
unnamed
As the west sleepwalks into nuclear confrontation over Syria with a Russia our leaders have pushed into a corner – using all their corporate backed might to paint black white, up down and evil common sense – Huxley’s words could have been freshly coined just this morning.
​Also apposite are Herman Goering’s words at the Nuremberg trials:

Why of course the people don’t want war. That is understood…But after all it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.​

Mind manipulation… begins at home. That is – you have to subscribe to the channel or indeed the bot-net by en-trancing the human conditioning.
Mind as a focusing device extends the Soul focus – but mind as a manipulative twist or coercive distortion is as a lens darkly – that is – it blocks the channel with a private agenda, that then meets reinforcement and reflection as if a private or separate ‘mind’ rather than integral to Soul direction.
Entrance is in the identification within separation trauma – be that terror, rage, heartbreak or any other sense of denial. Fragmentation is the undercurrent consciousness and world that operates a struggle or conflicted sense of self existence – but fragmentation is a mental-emotional belief imprinted to the physical and running as a complex of triggering reaction as a negative loop. The mind of control and survival is both the fragment or ‘victim-complex’ AND the perpetrator or denial complex – and each meets reflection and opposition in the other – or dis-owned and un-recognized Self.
Mind is a ‘projector’ by nature – and whatever is held in focus becomes the thought-feeling that then extends and reflects. When the idea of ‘different than’ or ‘separated from’ is given priority of desire and attention – a sense of fragmented and different ‘mind’ operates inside ‘non-mind’ or body-form. This can be a play but games that become obsessive often end in tears.
The competitive nature of ‘private or conflicted mind’ established false currencies of becoming more or less than – and fear of loss becomes a leverage of manipulation in the struggle for primacy or position.
The ‘mind-manipulation’ of fragmentation and denial has a very long and deep ‘history’ – and yet identification within it is defined by its own act – as a choice set that is then hidden and accorded ‘reality’ or ‘self’.
IF one recognized the actual fruits of one’s thought, feeling and act fully and immediately, one would not choose to hurt oneself so – while struggling t establish such pain of isolation as ‘victory’ or even ‘survival’.
Forgive them for they know not what they do – has nothing to do with WHAT they appear to do – but with the loss of vision and recognition by which self-destructive thought appears to be powerful, and even to ‘lord it’ over the world.
Un-subscribe from the bot-net in any moment of noticing a triggering action or reaction. Be innocent of knowing – that a deeper movement of being can move thought, feeling and act as a wholeness of being – which identifies you perfectly and is felt as a joyous connection or appreciation. Hate begets hate – and hate feelings have to be translated into terms of love lost – which can then be remedied by acceptance and embrace. We can accept this in our selves – but we cannot impose it on others. However, it is true that our healing is part of others re-integration – just as a world of hurt ‘shared’ a world of fragmentation and denial under a segregating sense of mind.

Divisions between government, corporations, financiers e.t.c. don’t actually exist. Government is a corporation owned by financiers. The ideals of democracy and freedom are merely tools used to reassure a trusting population. The current US election is but one example of a population acquiescing to the dictate of a handful of historically corrupt families. The reality that appears most probable is that the majority, don’t actually care so long as they believe they are free. The above article, as many, pleads for sanity and more power to his voice, we however live in an insane world.

….As the west sleepwalks into nuclear confrontation over Syria with a Russia our leaders have pushed into a corner, 1st there can’t be any nuke confrontation, only bluster. google Larry King cnn, ufos shut down missile silos in US, UK and USSR. They still monitor 24/7 and have zapped a few suspicious launches. They have told us they won’t allow a nuke war as it would also affect them, and others in this galaxy/Universe/just their Constellation. They weren’t clear on this point. They? In The Pleaidian Mission by R Winters, based on http://www.theyfly.com, This is why both/three sides are developing hypersonic conventional-warhead launch vehicles.
2nd. Nobody is in a cornered except the yanks.. whose coup failed, whose proxies of good, bad rebels, IS and Kurds are being zapped by Erdo. Erdo has now been freed of the Gulen/nato crowd.. the tainted Generals, Intel chief and various ministers. The yanks are groveling hoping not to be totally exposed for the coup, and fearing total loss of Turk to the east/

Also if you haven’t read ‘Brave New World” maybe you need to give it a heavy perusal
