The Wind Cries Mary

Folks that live in the heartland are a very well grounded lot. With plenty of open sky and a bunch of common sense. They are not impressed by dynamism alone. Pragmatic and wary of big government, they are easily turned off by big promises. However, the thought of solar, wind and geothermal use in the big open plains is an idea which will fall upon receptive ears. After all, the Germans are showing us that it can be done, in cloudy Germany and on the plains of Spain, with alittle enhanced reimbursement from utility companies. These people live close to the earth, and they don't like being suckered by big corporate America Either.http://www.wri.org/stories/2008/09/sun-is-setting-on-critical-renewable-energy-tax-credits

Crush the Rebellion

In the political life of a nation, occasionally a slight change of course is indicated. In America, when over decades, our forefathers, cried foul, against the taxation and control of the English throne, we were met with more oppression. When a grassroots unified dynamic of the masses threatened the established rule, the swift reply is that the ignorant masses simply need greater education and to return the nose to the grindstone. Tradition holds that outspoken commoners must have too much time on their hands, if they protest too much. To adjust for this, the cost of living can be moved up, a little war here, some inflation there, and some legislation to squelch new answers to the question of getting more product out of the laborers efforts. Don't think it can't happen, because it does, in foreign intrigues, in history, and internally also. Only a couple hundred years separates us from the times of Good King George.

The Freemason Hierophant, Semper Fidelis

The Hierophant, or Significator of the Mind, is the Essence of Self. That physically manifest being, covenanted with the wings of spirit, which draws onward the caged mental being. Facing the catalyst of the illusive polarized material world, where negative experience can cause positive polarization and vice-versa, and confident in the promise that we shall be born again to eternal light, we strive. With right hand in the position of fidelity, in service to others, offerring light outward. The while balancing the forces, the left hand hilted to the ground, absorbing spirit power, but not for self service, mentally aware of the opposites, but choosing the radiant. The Hierophant reaps the harvest of incarnate biases which seeks, absorbs, attempts to learn. It is the dynamic entity. Much like our great and good man Hiram, attempting to perfect the ashlar, semper fidelis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semper_Fi.

The End of War

Seth noted that overpopulation often results in famine, disease or war. Since the '70s, we have continued on our exponential upward swing in world population. With a remarkable absence of these events. The reasons for this abatement have much to do with the efficiencies of resource distribution, technologies of health, data, communication, and finance. The explosion in world productivity can also be attributed to unlimited petroleum energy resources. If that equation were to change, continuing population growth could cause the aforementioned disasters. Energy is the key as Tesla rightly foretold.

Red Cross/ Red Crescent unite over climate change

Isn't it interesting that these organizations which have mandates of good works should unite over the concept of climate change. Not surprising though, as smaller countries are disproportionately effected by damaging storms and changes which can effect agriculture and fisheries. These smaller countries are calling out for responsible actions on the part of the big carbon users. http://www.earthportal.org/news/?p=1507Of course many would say that, they don't know of that which they speak and dismiss the whole thing. The karma of nations, is similar to that of the karma of individuals, according to Edgar Cayce.

Carte Blanche of the Knights Templar

Unfettered power brings about abuse and corruption. The founding fathers of our country knew this full well, and attempted to guard against it. Jefferson was so aware of power mongers that he preferred not to have a strong centralized Federal system, and Washington to avoid any implementation of blue blooded tradition in America. Libertarians often rail against many forms of regulation as evidence of the burden placed on capitalism, and environmentalists do the same against the weight of entrenched corporate power. The Knights Templar, while serving the purposes of the Pope in the holy land, also wore the mantle of unfettered power. The list of the prerogatives and privileges granted them is sure sign that abuse would surely have crept into and stained the noble orders rule and guide. Free from taxation and tithing, from lawful conduct and norms. The powers granted the Knights were vast and far reaching, and after the power was stripped away, their condemnation left only true believers. Sometimes that's a good thing in the end. When those in authority abuse their power it is the obligation of the people to remove them.

Deeds not Creeds

The "Sons of Belial" caused the end of Atlantis through the abuse of genetically altered beings, war sciences and immorality, versus the children of the Law of One, so Cayce said. The Logos final cycle, in this 3rd 25000 year period, a period for self aware entities to choose separation or unity, and polarize toward that chosen extreme, to generate a collective voice or not, become of harvestable grade, or repeat the choice density elsewhere in the cosmos. We would have to have to deny our evolutionary coding for warfare, comfort, commerce, sacrifice, individuality, orthodoxy, apathy, discipline, doubt, change, etc., in order to become as One. Never mind the debate of pushing back evil. The increased catalyst of these days will likely increase the polarity of entities, service to self or to others. Still wouldn't it be grand if collectively man could turn toward deeds of unity and away from the divisions of our orthodoxies? The focus the grace of good deeds rather than of creeds, suggests that no matter what the belief of the person, what really qualifies the vibration of his/her soul is what the works have been, and what has been the intention. This is the easily discerned mark which distinquishes us.

Make Straight The Way of the Lord

There was a Saudi Prince at an energy conference who noted the amount of oil we import every year and the small impact of alternative energy potentials. Schlesinger agreed and it is so, and yet... Should Freemasons be supporting the movement in the global debate over greenhouse emissions? While we eschew politics and religious discourse, the moral position against environmental destabilization takes the same line that Jefferson's argument takes about saddling our future generations with debt. Morality requires no harm to innocents. Do we shrink from even this most important issue? The CO2 emissions will cause global change, and the people who dislike change are the ones stopping implementation of new energy directions. Can we grasp the compass needles direction and turn the course on climate now? The probability is unlikely, and yet there is hope. China, India, both are bringing forward a middle class, which will cause them to have an even greater carbon footprint. These countries need tried and true tech and we haven't a viable example. Why won't the corporations bring forward the electric car, wind and solar, and other shelved technology, and stop the madness of non conscientious profit. If they do not do it, they are guilty and in my opinion America will have failed at a time of need. Like Dom Quixote tilting at windmills, in Spain today, EU engineering has produced viable wind and solar towers. I wonder if they could be combined in one tower. The wind pulled up turning fans and the water steams turbines cooling downward. Good citizenry demands that action be taken when the government is subverted, what will history note of our present dilemma. Choose thou, make straight the way of the Lord. Remember our patron, John the Baptist, in the wilderness. We were a people with a can do attitude once. Are we still?

"I Am, the Way" JHShVH

All That Is, we hear that everything manifest and non manifest is aspect/reflection/spark of Diety/Infinite Intelligence. So what is the original state before the physical world, before polarity and the distortion of love by freewill. The mystery clad "I AM", whole and unchanging, getting to know Itself? Unknowable and veiled in mystery, but it could be like the old Moody Blues Song. I think, therefore I am, at least I must be. Floating on the breath of a dream. One thing Ra describes, something like this. That the issue of separation from Diety arises as the Creator splits or sparks off everthing that is. First the One, lets say halfs itself exactly. Now we have 2, exact copies. Both are the same and yet they are different. So multiply that by infinity and add freewill/distortion and space/time and like a genetic code variability becomes myriad. Tat Tsvam Asi. This is that. All is one.
