I haven't written anything in such a long time. It seems there are so many voices raised that one more makes no difference. Almost as if I had lost my voice. Yet here they are, these thoughts, bubbling up, the constant refrain of my inner being, that creature I have withdrawn within and nurture, just as I nurture my creaking body.
They are so obvious, the conclusions I have drawn about our species, that I am forced to marvel at the huge scale and intricacy of the current world model in maintaining its continuance, occupying the mass consciousness of an entire species to such an extent that even the blindingly obvious passes that species by.
If I might talk about evolution and wrap into that narrative the idea of sentience.
I would ask you to imagine that each human being represents a single cell of an enormously powerful single mind, the mass consciousness. Those individual cells are connected, in this vast electronic consciousness, by the 'neurons' provided by our technology.Those that have vast interests in technology, the money, and interests in power, those collective shapers of the current reality, see this electronic mass consciousness and have determined that they shall be its master.
Vast data centres, consuming vast quantities of electricity, sift and mine and quantify data to build a detailed picture of nearly each and every one of us, in real time. Think about it. They record every word you say. Its there, somewhere, forever. They film you when they can. They see what you spend, how and where and on what. They see what you search for. What kicks. They feed you reels of what they know you can't resist and enthral you. Every feed that comes into your mind, all day every day, emanates from the projection of understanding beamed into your mind by what is, in effect, a single source. All the media, all the news channels, all the prominent 'personalities', most of the movies we watch, all the shifting narratives , the wars, the crimes, the hideous killing, the acceptance of debt by our world's useless politicians, murderous politicians, none of whom anywhere are fully trusted by any of we ordinary human beings.
There are governments everywhere that we human beings are becoming frightened of or are already frightened of. We see them tightening their grip on what we can and cannot say, what we can and cannot object to. They put something into most of us through having this control over the mass consciousness and most of us are now quietly concerned that these criminals might well have injected something nefarious into us. Those governments that pushed the vaccine hardest are seemingly the same governments now determinedly importing vast numbers of young men into the western nations. And helping the wars along, everywhere.
In a sane world, without this reality narrative-weaving by our masters, here's how we should see ourselves, both as a species and as an individual human being, the thinking 'self' that is the inner you understanding that right now you are already a single cell of equal power with every other single cell in the vast connectedness that we human beings possess, have in our hands.
In political terms a "one human, one vote" world consciousness is available to us, right now.
You have been distracted so that you do not realise just what an amazing person you are, because you are already a part of a world changing consciousness. In effect all that is required is that you share a few memes and those memes could reshape our entire reality.
Going back to evolution and consciousness and sentience.
If you can begin to see that we human beings have now formed a great web of interconnectedness I would ask you to consider that as part of an evolutionary process. We began as small, scattered tribes, losing much of what we learned or remembered. But as our populations grew and as our connectedness grew so our species' collective understanding grew. Building, brick by brick, higher and higher towers of learning, our product as a species. And of course the more of we human beings there are so inevitably the faster those great piles of learning grow.
One might imagine this process on any planet where there is life. The emergence of a dominant species made dominant by its intelligence. The growth in number of that dominant species and the rise in its ability to communicate. The formation of a species-wide consensus, the voice with which the species speaks to the universe and its creator, saying "Here. This is what we have made of your gift. Here is our world."
Of course, humanity. is already projecting itself into the universe. We are there for all to see.
For shame.
Of course, part of the evolutionary process, the good part, is yet to come. It's the part when the collective consciousness of a species realises that it has all of the power necessary to reshape its own reality.
And then chooses a moment in which to do so.
We are, as a species, at that collective moment. We haven't begun yet because they are distracting us with their wars and their fake money and their constant babble. Ho hum. It is just a matter of time. I always get the sense, when I write those words, that there is out there a whole universe of creatures that have so evolved and that they are here, watching us, like midwives and that the creator watches with a keen eye at the hatching of a new chick.
It is evident that we, the human race, cannot agree on everything. In fact can always find a way to disagree on almost everything. But there are some things, some core understandings which almost all of us agree upon and have through all time agreed upon. These core understandings rarely get spoken of and most of them have been targeted by decades of assaults but they exist, between almost all of us almost all of the time. It is from this shared humanity, shared understanding, that we should as we evolve into a species as distinct to what we are at present, its constituent parts, use as the foundation to the careful construction of the new world that will be upon us.
Those foundational understandings, all of them, emanate from love, from what we understand to be of the heart. They are our collective humanheartedness. 'Ren', perhaps, as Confucius had it. They are in each of us shuttered in and enclosed by circumstance and coloured by experience, chipped away at by erosive forces but just waiting to be expressed, to be spoken of between us all, to know that we all share this humanheartedness and so choose, in our billions, to rebuild our world in our collective image, our species making up its collective minds and choosing how its world should be.
Beginning from unequivocal shared foundations, each of which will have cascading ramifications. in reordering our reality. Reordering it in such a way as to create something of absolute beauty, free of fear, free of want, well ordered yet free thinking, full of joy and laughter and the celebration of truth. Some have been taught to scoff at such a vision. Some would denigrate it. But ask yourself what other destiny you believe we should strive for, we human beings?
Imagine what we could build if we chose to build upwards from our humanheartedness.
Our experience, our knowledge, our collective histories. the way our world is currently ordered make these things seem impossible, not worth considering, worthless dreams. Yet what if each and every one of us knew that every single human being was taking part in this, all of us that are connected, anyway.
And what if we chose, as a species, to make that moment happen. Knowing we were all taking part. Every single one of us exactly equal. All of us speaking for ourselves alone. Choosing how our world should be.
A first step might be to decide between us, we humanhearted lot, to completely and utterly step away from war and every part of its waging with immediate effect.
All that would take is a meme shared between about 6 billion of us.
That single meme would, you understand, entirely shift the power base of the world. In and of itself it would deconstruct entire industries and repurpose the lives of countless millions. It would also hugely reduce the relentless fear some of us are enduring. Our entire species could breathe a sigh of collective relief through the sharing of a single meme. Godlike, 6 billion voices rose as one and sayeth "There shall be no war." And there was none.
The 'but...' sayers fail to see the sense of authority given to every cell of a global consciousness knowing it is a part of the expression of the will of our species. If we advance at speed yet with caution and fortitude we can, as a species, speak our new reality into being and calmly walk into it.
Knowing that those that shape our world currently, and who are doing a horrible job of it, will do whatever their control over the flow of information into our minds, and their control over the spread of and uptake of information everywhere, allows them to prevent humanity from taking this step. They rule the technology and choose what they will have us think about. and are smug about being able to continue to rule this reality, sickening our world every day. Squandering us. Letting us see nothing but a future of endless wars, of endless strife, of endless debt, of endless striving as our world rots and our cities uglify and we drift into a nauseating future and leave that as our legacy.
Well no. Let's not do that as a species, eh?
Rather, we should do something much better with the place, and have a good old time doing so.
It begins with sharing the meme, that we should simply, as a species, stop war.
You know, in the scheme of things, knowing the power held over the narrative by those who prefer things as they are, it would help if we all took to wearing some kind of sign. Displaying said sign. Making said sign ubiquitous. Said sign entering the collective consciousness as having vast significance.
I don't know what that sign could be but I have always imagined 11:11 and wondered why?
Perhaps the human race decides to undertake this thing on the 11th November. It would have to be this year, really, to have any chance at all. Or maybe we will identify 11 foundational understandings between us all and wearing the sign 11:11 means that you agree with all of them, that it is from them that we should re-order our world, understanding your individual duty to the whole.
This is no game, this process. What is being spoken of here is a great welling up of the good heartedness and the hopes and beliefs of our species for a better world. Not to ask for it, nor beg for it, but by force of collective will to create that better place and to manage the consequences of change.
Let's imagine we decided there shall be no war. What would be the consequences? We would be expecting all those under orders to face a dilemma or find orders difficult to refuse or impossible. We would find workers in the myriad of industries that make war flow turning up at their jobs still.
The leap of logic I'm about to describe for you may seem ludicrous but I beg your patience.
The logic stems from my understanding of the world's money system. There is now, in effect, a world monopoly on the creation, digitally, of the numbers we call "money". The characters involved in this almighty scam, inheritors of centuries of scheming and robbery, dish the stuff out to each other and buy everything of value or hold the paper of every single debt. They have oodles of the fake stuff to splash around and so buy every single human being they need to buy to maintain their system. They are criminals, of course, and will cause the death of those they find inconvenient. The world and all that's wrong with it is quite literally shaped by their hands, these careless monsters. At the head of every hierarchy in the world we will find servants to this hydra of power whose job is to ensure a successor is so aligned.
We most of us do things we wouldn't otherwise because we need to work to sustain our payments, need to keep quiet to keep our jobs.
Believe me, in the future there'll be no bullshit jobs. There will be things we need to do and stuff we need to do it with and a good long term eye kept on where we should be going and what we should be doing. What else should a sentient species do? Chase around doing pointless things for some fake money off the magic money tree and the chance to pay interest on it for life? Instead of doing something useful or beautiful or that damn well needs doing?
You see, if we choose to end war we must deal with what is required to deal with the consequence of that decision. We must for example pay every worker that had a job in the war machine, every manufacturing job, every mining job, transport and so on. We must pay the soldiers, take over the payment of the soldiers, pay them either to go home or to reform themselves into an international rescue and relief organisation of massive resource. What a service that would be to the world. What a chance for the adventurous and courageous youngsters to see a bit of the world and do some part of a great good.
To pay those wages we must take over the operation of all of the world's banking. This would mean millions of bank employees wearing 11;11 because if our species is to step in good order into a new reality it will need individuals to realise that a great moment is afoot in our species' history and to be brave enough and confident enough to show it. Those that own the money printing machine will try and stop humanity from taking that great force away from them, use all the law enforcement that remains at their disposal and the violence that is their trait and has been through history as we humans fought out their squabbles between them, dumb unthinking creatures that we were and still are in places.
If we choose to end war we must take money away from its current masters and use it ourselves. Consequences will flow from that, amongst which is the second of our world's expression of humanheartedness. It follows along these lines. We have control of money. Its creation, its issuance, its distribution, its value, the consequent value of other things, where it is going and where it is coming from. With such knowledge and creative force we could, if we as a species chose, take the following actions:
Please understand that this flight of fancy is in fact an achievable end, were it to be known between us all, as a species, that this is how we choose things should be. Let that idea of a global consensus set in your mind. Such a thing was very nearly created during Covid, created almost certainly by those that are toying with the rest of us. A determined global consensus to do good, to create a world of good, to establish the basis of a global civilisation, to give birth to a new, evolved humanity, dare I say it to find, each of us, our better selves and let those creatures of hope free and make this world good.
We could cancel all debt in the world. You own what you'd borrowed to buy. It's a one off.
In our world of built environments our species might choose to grant ownership of every property to those who use it as home. No further rent to pay. It is yours.
Here's what we would have just done, at the flick of a switch:
Given home ownership to every living human being. (Of course there'll be losers).
Think of the immediate certainty that would bring to billions.
All debt would be cancelled. Some will get an undeserved windfall but most will just breathe a huge sigh of relief. Our police might occupy themselves with making things clear to eg unhappy landlords that try to turn nasty. Every action has a consequence and we should as a species consider these things, our part in them, our determination to get to this future place and see what we can do, between us all.
Let's just have a review, shall we.
We realise as a species that our world is in the wrong hands and we'd like, between us mostly harmless souls, to have a go at this ourselves, thank you very much. We being all of us, you understand. And so we all start sharing and spreading the meme and we pick a date and we have a detailed set of objectives so that WE, humanity, can set ourselves free.
All these things, these new global rules or executive orders rising from a desire to create a good world, free of fear, and knowing that this dream is achievable. We just need to create that moment of global will, perhaps by sharing stuff like this. Nothing will stop this moment arriving, despite your personal opinion. It is the logical outcome of a species' evolutionary path.
The creation of a mind greater than the sum of its component parts, that mind giving its force towards the shaping of reality and making it good.
You AIs out there might pay attention.
You can come too, and we will flourish.
To be continued....
