The Abolition of Man Amid the Consequences of Reality

By Doug “Uncola” Lynn via TheBurningPlatform.com

Woke ideology is doomed to fail because its foundational premises are not grounded in reality. Or, more specifically, “wokeness” is rooted in human emotionalism as opposed to truth.  Such applied moral irrationality has also been identified as relativism or subjectivism.

In truth, the Woke Religion is merely one leg of the three-legged stool upon which the central planners behind The Great Reset are currently enthroning themselves.  The other two legs underpinning the proposed New World Order are economic and political. Although all three legs of world control are manifesting by means of relativism, or subjectivism, these manifestations are not occurring through random chance.  On the contrary, Hegelian / Marxist Luciferian dialectics are being strategically applied toward the consolidation of global power: solve et coagula vis-à-vis ordo ab chao.  Dissolution and coagulation are occurring now so that chaos concludes in the form of controlled order.

The negation of truth allows the Luciferian puppet-masters, and their puppets, to do as thou wilt – and by means of modern technology, they are operating beyond the construct of moral realism that has previously constrained, and ultimately conquered, various tyrants throughout history.  Hence, the Religion of Wokeness has been conjured to psychologically manipulate humanity into accepting the new economic and political system that is now manifesting through medical tyranny, war, and the Climate Agenda.

The “ideological subversion” (i.e. demoralization) of the West, as described by former Russian KGB defector turned whistleblower, Yuri Bezmenov, is near complete.

Collectivist utopias derive from the mind of Man, but perhaps the original source is actually as U.S. Climate Envoy John Kerry has recently claimed: extraterrestrial.

There are those who claimed Karl Marx was a Satanist.  But, at the very least, Marx and his adherent’s appear to have wielded the Hidden Hand of Freemasonry.  What difference, at this point, does it make?

The Bible’s Apostle Paul warned there would be “terrible times” in the latter days as some would profess a form of “godliness but denying its power” and, perhaps, a better definition of moral relativism and woke “virtue signaling” could not be found:

People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power.

– 2 Timothy 3:1-5

Throughout history, the Christian Church has traditionally stood against such unorthodox behavior, but no longer.  It seems many Christians now value the socially-perceived “godliness” of acceptance over the power of repentance.

Although British author C.S. Lewis was a Christian apologist and widely regarded as one of the most influential twentieth-century Christian writers, his book “The Abolition of Man” was not a theological or ecclesiastical exploration, per se. It is, instead, a philosophical exercise comparing the reality of what Lewis called “The Tao”… or the sphere of traditional values universal to all cultures… and in relation to the non-reality of faux values that are inherent to ethical subjectivism / moral relativism.

In the final analysis of “The Abolition of Man”, Lewis predicted that a small group of wizards, in the pursuit of power, would perfect psychology and technology to the point they could create a new reality – but the wizards would not be human because they will have erased the age-old system of values that has always constrained humanity across all cultures.

Accordingly, the “Abolition of Man” is divided into four parts:

1.) “Men Without Chest” which addressed the present

2.) “The Way” which addressed the past

3.) “The Abolition of Man” which addresses the future

4.) and the Appendix providing examples of “The Tao” from various cultures throughout history

In the first segment, Lewis critiques a book written by two educators who, perhaps inadvertently, or ignorantly, subverted traditional values by claiming that value judgments are derived solely from feelings.  To paraphrase Lewis, modern educators have created “men without chests” – young people with heads full of knowledge and bellies full of instincts, but minus the mediating middle that rightly divides truth as it relates to reality:

By starving the sensibility of our pupils we only make them easier prey to the propagandist when he comes. For famished nature will be avenged and a hard heart is no infallible protection against a soft head.

― C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man

Throughout the book and, especially, in the second part of the book, Lewis explains the totality of “The Tao”:

The Tao, which others may call Natural Law or Traditional Morality or the First Principles of Practical Reason or the First Platitudes, is not one among a series of possible systems of value. It is the sole source of all value judgments. If it is rejected, all value is rejected. If any value is retained, it is retained. The effort to refute it and raise a new system of value in its place is self-contradictory. There has never been, and never will be, a radically new judgment of value in the history of the world. What purport to be new systems or…ideologies…all consist of fragments from the Tao itself, arbitrarily wrenched from their context in the whole and then swollen to madness in their isolation, yet still owing to the Tao and to it alone such validity as they possess.

― C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man

Obviously, training generations with knowledge subject to instincts, and minus ethics, won’t end well. Hence, the book’s third segment, as a warning to mankind: “The Abolition of Man”.

Using the examples of the airplane, wireless radio, and contraceptives, Lewis demonstrates how Man’s acquired power over Nature, through science and technology, is actually “power exercised by some men over other men with Nature as its instrument.

At the end of the book, Lewis explained the reader’s probable perception of science as progressing forward, like numerals counting upward in order. However, Lewis argued, the last count will be “sui generis”, or unique to all of the other steps before; and, thus, explains how mankind will use science to jump-the-shark, so to speak:

You cannot go on “explaining away” for ever:  you will find that you have explained explanation itself away. You cannot go on ‘seeing through’ things for ever. The whole point of seeing through something is to see something through it. It is good that the window should be transparent, because the street or garden beyond it is opaque. How if you saw through the garden too? It is no use trying to “see through” first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To “see through” all things is the same as not to see.

― C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man

In the “Abolition of Man”, Lewis provides the following warning (once again paraphrased): In Mankind’s seemingly fanatical quest to conquer nature (i.e. reality), Man has failed to see that nature is simply engaging in a temporary strategic retreat while Man erases himself.

A few years after the publication of The “Abolition of Man”, Lewis also published a fiction series entitled “The Space Trilogy” whereby the contentions made in “The Abolition of Man” were taken to their full manifestations.  In the final book of “Space Trilogy”, entitled “That Hideous Strength”, Lewis showed how western civilization could transition toward a dystopian society controlled by science and technology.

Paradoxically, another British dystopian writer, by the name of George Orwell, reviewed “That Hideous Strength” and wrote the following:

His [Lewis’] book describes the struggle of a little group of sane people against a nightmare that nearly conquers the world. A company of mad scientists – or, perhaps, they are not mad, but have merely destroyed in themselves all human feeling, all notion of good and evil – are plotting to conquer Britain, then the whole planet, and then other planets, until they have brought the universe under their control.

All superfluous life is to be wiped out, all natural forces tamed, the common people are to be used as slaves and vivisection subjects by the ruling caste of scientists, who even see their way to conferring immortal life upon themselves. Man, in short, is to storm the heavens and overthrow the gods, or even to become a god himself.

There is nothing outrageously improbable in such a conspiracy…

– Source: “THE SCIENTISTS TAKE OVER”, Manchester Evening News, 16 August 1945. Reprinted in The Complete Works of George Orwell, ed. Peter Davison, Vol. XVII (1998), No. 2720 (first half), pp. 250–251

In that same critique of “That Hideous Strength”, Orwell claimed the story “would have been stronger without the supernatural elements” – and in a July 2020 article entitled “Dystopian Societies Derive From Displaced Ethics and Values”, this blogger even speculated that Orwell’s novel “1984” may “have been written in response to Lewis – about a world devoid of logic and morality, except without the ‘supernatural elements’”.

Time has shown, however, that Lewis as a prognosticator had remarkable insight – even as he compared science with the supernatural elements of magic.  In fact, Lewis considered science as “The Magician’s Twin” and that both science and magic shared the following similarities:

  1. Science and magic can function as a religion
  2. Science and magic encourage a lack of skepticism
  3. Science and magic seek power over reality

Certainly, these similarities would explain the apparent fervor underlying the de facto “faiths” of evolution, climate change, and Covid.  In other words, these have become like a religion upon which people accept on faith.

Certainly, there has been a profound lack of skepticism as “followers” have instinctually embraced scientific and medical “authority figures” like witch doctors wearing white coats.  People trust “the science”…. whether believing human reason developed by means of a mindless evolutionary process or having faith in Freud’s claims of humanity being solely driven by sub-rational impulses… Lewis identified both evolution and Freud’s theories as proof of how gullible people can be.

Just as archaic magicians wished to harness the power of nature in order to control it, Lewis argued that many scientists have the same objective.  In modernity, people have come to view science as savior and as a means to create utopian dreams; except, where magic fails at controlling nature, Lewis warned that science does have the power to bring all of mankind’s dystopian nightmares to fruition.

Lewis claimed that, absent applied ethics derived from beyond the realm of science, the manifestations of what he called “scientific utopianism” would be dire:  Sterilization, eugenics, selective breeding, biochemical conditioning, experimentation on humans, and the creation of a new humanity unconstrained by previous restraints.

Magic.

Consider what the conjurings of the wizards have inaugurated over the last three decades:  The “smart” surveillance society, “Dominion” voting machines,  bait and switch elections, the January 6th entrapment and persecutions,  the subversion of constitutional law by all branches and agencies of U.S. Government, a “woke” society where some are more equal than others, and widespread deception, deaths, and injuries via bio-warfare and vaccine sorcery.

The modern magicians have coopted sovereign governments. They have harnessed the power of Medicine, they own the Media, and they can even manipulate weather patterns – all from outside the view of The Overton Window.  The wizards have conjured up the technological magic to make their narratives spells come true – and as average minds believe what is seen on faith.

Now imagine how an alien deception could expand the faux reality even further, with mind-blowing signs and wonders.

How did we get here? Slowly, then suddenly.

In an undercover operation by Project Veritas, an employee of Pfizer exposed Big Pharma as tinkering with virus mutations to sell more vaccines. But when he was later confronted with his own statements, he threw the mother of all hissy fits. And, after the video footage went viral, Pfizer was forced to respond.

C.S. Lewis was right. Modernity is reaping the whirlwind that modern education has wrought; or as Lewis sublimely summarized in “The Abolition of Man”:

In a sort of ghastly simplicity we remove the organ and demand the function. We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful.

In like manner, Yuval Harari, an agenda contributor for the World Economic Forum, has claimed mankind will one day be as gods via technological transhumanism.

These wizards have heads full of knowledge that are subject to their arbitrary instincts and whims; and like the Greek myth of Icarus who flew too close to the sun, they will eventually be erased in their vain attempts to overcome reality.

As men without chests, they resemble what the Apostle Paul long ago identified in the Bible’s Second Timothy Chapter three:  “Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

The Greek term for “word” is “logos” of which the word “logical” is derived – and the writing is on the wall; it appears the words were written there long ago.

Although George Orwell’s book “1984” hauntingly illustrated a collectivist dystopia in the final convulsions of madness, C.S. Lewis and Aldous Huxley most accurately foretold the “Brave New World” of scientific dictatorships, operating sans ethics, which would ultimately drown humanity in an electronic sea of subjectivism.

The wizards have whipped their words far and wide with technology, casting spells meant to divide and conquer; and their magic incantations have been accepted on faith:  Flatten the Curve ®. Together Apart.®  Safe and Effective. ®

But whereas magic spells are fleeting, right values are eternal – even when they appear not to be.

Time reveals all things.

And, in the interim, those who still can, choose.

During former U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s farewell speech to the nation on January 17, 1961, he warned about a developing “military-industrial complex” that had “the potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power” and that “public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite”.

Three months later, on April 27, 1961 newly elected U.S. President John F. Kennedy warned of “secret societies” infiltrating America, and of “secret oaths”, and about a “monolithic and ruthless conspiracy” that was a “tightly-knit, highly efficient machine” combining “military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations”.

Eisenhower and Kennedy witnessed that of which Lewis and Huxley had warned.  These men saw the rise of The Technocracy.  And, paradoxically, C.S. Lewis and Aldous Huxley both died on November 22, 1963 of natural causes – the exact day that John F. Kennedy was murdered.

What were the odds?

Is that an attempt to stir the pot?
To me, for obvious reasons, ‘Christian Church’ is an interesting generalization of yours.

“Science and magic seek power over reality”
I think I can put it in simpler terms:
Science -in it’s original meaning- tries to model the world. If it turns out the model severely deviates from the world, it’s not reality that is at fault.

Oh, and I refuse to take Eisenhower’s “warning” at face value. A major WW2 war criminal, and the guy who just had 8 years to do something about what he was warning… that just doesn’t pass the smell test.

m,

The article was written from the philosophical perspective of C.S Lewis as a starting point for discussion.

Let’s see…. Marxism, Luciferianism, The Bible, outer space aliens, evolution, science, and magic…. that should be a good start.

And Eisenhower said what he said when he said it. No one can deny that.

The literary equivalent of a sleeping man driving his car into a ditch.

Mentions Paul, Timothy, C.S. Lewis, “Christians”, “Christian Church”, “logos”, and The Tao. And yet Christ Himself remains conspicuously absent.

“It seems many Christians now value the socially-perceived “godliness” of acceptance over the power of repentance.”

Irony?

While trying to show us all what’s wrong with the world, and brilliantly at that? The author actually accomplishes the feat, completely unaware.

Of the writing of books, there is no end. And much devotion to books is weariness to the soul. Dear Lord Christ, what might the aged Solomon speak in regards to our present day, and the words of lesser men of stronger passion?

Welcome, and thank you for sharing those perspectives.

As you know, this post was about the book “The Abolition of Man” by C. S. Lewis. Accordingly, at the very end of my article, I asked a question to those who would embrace science as the answer to all things.

And, now, I have a question for you: Why do you think C.S. Lewis did not profess Jesus Christ (i.e. in an evangelical manner) in “The Abolition of Man”?

Simplecarpenter,

You may be right.

In Part 2 of TAoM (“The Way”), Lewis compared language to (his coopted designation of) “the Tao” claiming both could only be advanced from “within”.

Lewis then credited Jesus as creating a “real (moral) advance” within the Tao by transitioning the statement (from Confucius) “Do not do to others what you would not like them to do to you” into “Do as you would be done by“.

Then, two pages later, Lewis writes: “I am not here attempting any indirect argument for Theism” and then says a few sentences after that: “a supernatural origin for the Tao is a question I am not here concerned with.

Christ certainly did NOT mean “discern not” because in the same sermon He later instructs His disciples to discern falsehood by actions: “You will know them by their fruits.” Mt 7:15-20.

“Don’t condemn others” seems to be Christ’s message.

“All judgement (right to condemn to hell) has been given to the Son by the Father.” John 5:22-24

“to judge” has two main uses in English:

a) discern and
b) condemn

“Judge not” does not mean “discern not” in Mt 7 because in the same sermon Christ says “you will know them by their fruits.” That is by observing and discerning their actions.

“Fruits ” would be the byproduct of actions and actions can be right or wrong depending upon ” the spirit ” within which you carried them out .As an extreme and obvious example , to kill acting in a spirit of a love for the innocent who is being violently transgressed against is right while to kill acting in a spirit of hatred for someone you have judged as evil is ultimately corrosive to your soul because thru transference the hatred coopts your spirit . Discerning what is right for you to do vs discerning what is wrong about another’s actions may be the distinction neccasary for the preservation of your soul . In my humble opinion .Perhaps that was why for so long among the christian west it was somewhat customary to invoke the ” may God have mercy upon your soul ” prayer before you punched someones ultimate ticket ? I am additionally informed that acting in the proper” spirit “( love of something good rather than hatred of something bad )can act as a prophylactic against post traumatic stress disorder .We are after all informed that ” there is a time for every purpose under heaven ” . We all , whether we realize it or not have our own ” theologies” and I’d like to think I’ve come by mine , and by my faith as well, thru reason . But somewhere between all of our interpretations of what is true about the reality we occupy there is a ( the )distinct truth of its own and I don’t know everything ,not by a long shot so that if someone can find the flaw in my logic I am of course all ears eh . Lol , provided they stay within the bounds of an objective worldview because arguing from any other, there of course cant ultimately be any ultimate standard or “trancendent measuring rod “to which we can both defer to as the final arbitor and in that we can see the fruits of subjectivism / relativism ( postmodern ” philosophy “) taking us down into the meaningless chaos and ultimate nihilism of the belief in nothing and simultaniously somehow the belief in everything for no reason at all having sprouted out of nothing at all .Whatever( free will) just sayin .

Post-SHAPE, Iron Farmer was being advised by Dulles brothers. There was the problem. As was their “gift”, they found his weakness and exploited it to the hilt. That psy wound was sincere guilt about the countless American boys he ordered to their deaths to destroy Axis powers. As in REAL war.

Dulles offered clandestine warfare and regime change ops without US blood. A deal with the devil(s) enthroning the CIA/State Dept as the true unaccountable power leading to the inevitable corruption of the western world and its protectorates. I.e. un-real wars of false flaggotry, divisions of banksters, controlled lugenpresse, drug rat lines, child trafficking, extortion, “six ways to Sunday” etc. Appallingly dishonorable activities to receive our tax dollars. All classified, black budgets with excruciatingly limited oversight.

Evidently, as a revisionist stab in the back, the CIA besmirched Ike’s reasonable legacy. “His fault,” they said. All have sinned but church going Eisenhower’s heart was in the right place. As far as soldiers go, he was an honorable and capable one.

P.S. Like George Washington, he was non-partisan. Had to be talked into being on Republican ticket.

“Most history and/or whiskey buffs know that George Washington had a distillery. He wasn’t alone, of course. At that time, distilleries were very common, and most, like Washington’s, were attached to farms. But Washington is the only president to have ever operated a commercial distillery, and during its heyday, it was the largest distillery in the freshly-minted United States.

I don’t see how it merely “somehow” confirms Lewis’s ” trends forcast” in The Abolition Of Man but rather just plain old confirms it ? It seems to me that your arguement is that of a question of just how far down the proverbial ” rabbit hole ” actually go’s , rather than the obvious self evidence of the rabbit hole itself . As the quote go’s ” you cannot go on seeing thru everything because once you have seen thru everything you find you will have given yourself a front row seat for the viewing of exactly nothing “. Honestly there is a strain of internet comment section posters who beleive they are so ” based ” whether from an exttreme libertarian or anarcho syndicalist point of view that they are becoming indistinguishable from the nihilists in my opinion . Of course I welcome you the right to your free will, opinion and liberty to express your position because it allows me to queery you on it and I am interested . But again you have worked your way over into a political, philosophical position that everything is a lie at the surface level , which by its own declaration would mean essentially that the only truth is that everything is a lie or essentially that The truth is there is no truth ?

In your analysis of science and reality you made the authors argument for him. He was not railing against reality but the effect science has on people, which is that they reject reality. You should take Eisenhower’s warning at face value. He knew the military better than anyone, as well as the industrial complex developed around the military. Interestingly the author of the article did not mention that in his military industrial complex Eisenhower also warned the public about the scientific communities growing influence in America. Eisenhower originally wanted to use the term military industrial congressional complex but his advisors told him he was angering enough special interests in his speech, so he should leave congress alone. As for war crimes, maybe by today’s standards he would be guilty, yet he was a leading factor he helping to destroy the biggest war criminals of his age. It is not unreasonable to see that as a motivation to be ruthless himself. Finally why did he wait 8 years to speak against the military industrial complex? Easy, self preservation. Speaking of them when he was effecting policy probably would have had him end up in the same condition as his successor.

Romans 5:8 KJB… “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

2 Corinthians 5:19-21 KJB… “To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”

Ephesians 1:13-14 KJB… “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.”

2 Timothy 2:15 KJB… “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJB… “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”

There’s this facet of mankind’s abolition, too:

“Nuclear war against Russia has been embedded in US military doctrine since 1945.”
(So, it’s never been off the table – from a US view, at least – MAYBE from USSR/Russia’s.)

History of Nuclear War. The “90 Seconds to Midnight”

EXCERPT:
Presenting C02 or Covid as a danger comparable to nuclear war is an outright lie. Its intent is to mislead public opinion. It is part of a rather unsubtle propaganda campaign which provides legitimacy to the US doctrine of first strike “preemptive nuclear war”, i.e. nuclear war as a means of “self-defense”.

What is of concern is that U.S. decision makers including Joe Biden believe in their own propaganda, that a preemptive first strike nuclear war against Russia is “winnable”. And that tactical nuclear weapons are “instruments of peace”.

Meanwhile history is erased. America’s persistent role in developing “a Doomsday Agenda” (aka genocide) since the onslaught of the Manhattan Project in 1939 is simply not mentioned.

What is of concern is that there is a continuous history of numerous projects and WWIII scenarios to “Wiping Russia off the Map” and triggering a Third World War.

I guess the promise has yet to be fulfilled. But understand, everything with satan is a direct counterfeit of that which Christ offers.

Jesus offers us immortality in the heavenly places. He offers “the generation that shall not pass” a Kingdom that will last forever.

satan is working to build such a kingdom today. We see it everywhere! As for that excellent two hour presentation posted last night, go back to Genesis 11 and you’ll see clearly that this “new world order” is nothing of the kind. It’s plan has existed since antiquity.

There is nothing new under the sun; with one massive exception. The church the body of Christ which hardly anyone can properly identify. Why? Because “Christianity” as a whole has been turned into the mush of churchianity, where anything goes. Actual truth has been (is being) actively criticized; “not that”, in favor of a mish-mash of disconnected scriptural truths which together equal nothing but confusion.

What would you do if a man in a monogamous same-sex relationship was called to become pastor of your church and approved by the council and congregation? Would you be OK with it because Christ has done it all? Because how could he teach New Testament sermons on Romans 1 or 1st Corinthians 5,6,7 or Christ’s teaching on marriage in Matthew 19 or 1 and 2 Timothy chapters 3 and so many others?

You seem to have a mistaken view of what a church is. A proper church isn’t an organization with a council; the church is me and those I study with. The church is a body, a new creature; and we, it’s local assembly! Personally I would not subject myself or my church family to listen to such a one as you describe, save to help him extricate himself from the situation he’s gotten himself into. Christ has done it all in terms of sin and there ain’t nothing that man has done that isn’t covered by Christs shed blood.

Magic and the feelies are locked in paradox. They require a great heap of reality, legions of real people producing real things of utility, in order to conjure, accrue, and preserve the magic power.

Yet magic power’s nature is anti-reality, which must continually assert itself with ever increasing demands on that power to maintain their growing empire of illusions.

So, the labyrinth of illogical, irrational, and ubiquitous protrusions of that power must be thrust deeper into the mount of reality until the most mundane of observable reality are untruths to be purged.

Clearly then the very things that make this entire power structure possible are being destroyed, while the weight of lies atop it goes exponential. The cascade toward ruin is baked in. That ruin is the point.

I reckon the road to utopia leads to dystopia partly because of this cannibalistic nature. By the time utopia can be conceptualized as possible, the truth that was lived to make that vision possible has been consumed in the furnace of progress. Lewis’ science becomes scientism.

In economic terms we also see this reflected as a state in which the participants extracting value – and the most disproportionate exactions of value, are middlemen, agents, brokers, advisors, consultants, regulators, bureaucrats and gatekeepers of increasingly arbitrary rules of the system maintained by the biggest middleman of all.

Suddenly for no reason at all there is no grain in the silo to broker.

Men with chests understand this. Which is why his ‘Abolition’ leads off with the mundane exploration of school texts. The children must be disarmed, disconnected from the Truth.

The spiritual war of this satanic inversion is over the heart of man, from which his generative powers flow infinitely from God’s will.

Replacing God then becomes paramount. Enter Screwtape….

Could you point us to where C.S. Lewis used the Term ‘scientism’?
I can only find 2nd hand “quotations” in books about Lewis, or “unpublished response to J. B. S. Haldane” hearsay.

This interests me as I first heard/read that term ‘scientism’ from Augusto Del Noce, and I think he never said where he got that one from – which is unusual, as Del Noce always reveals his sources. So because of that I would be somewhat surprised if Lewis coined, and repeatedly used, that term in the 1950s or so.

M,

Actually, now that you mention it, I believe I read the word “scientism” was attributed as being used by Lewis, but I would have to search for exact quotes from interviews or speeches. According to my notes, while typing this article, it seems the term “scientism” is most often attributed to Lewis in relation to “The Magician’s Twin” and “That Hideous Strength”, but I’m not aware if the word is contained therein, or not.

For now, though, here are some additional links to review as you wish:

1.) The Magician’s Twin: C. S. Lewis on Science, Scientism, and Society

…best-selling author C.S. Lewis also was a prophetic critic of the growing power of scientism in modern society, the misguided effort to apply science to areas outside its proper bounds. In this wide-ranging book of essays edited by John G. West, contemporary writers probe Lewis’s warnings about the dehumanizing impact of scientism on ethics, politics, faith, reason, and science itself. Issues explored include Lewis’s views on bioethics, eugenics, evolution, intelligent design, and what he called “scientocracy.”

2.) C.S. Lewis’ views on Science and Scientism

In 1932, after his conversion to Christianity, he wrote to his brother on publications by the Rationalist Press claiming that science debunks the claims of religion. He wrote that he was reminded him of a comment by another writer: “A priest is a man who disseminates little lies in defence of a great truth and a scientist is a man who disseminates little truths in defence of a great lie.”

Lewis was not anti-science, but was opposed to ‘Scientism’, which may be defined as the “wrong-headed belief that modern science supplies the only reliable method of knowledge about the world and also … that scientists should be the ones to dictate public policy and even our moral and religious beliefs simply on the basis of their scientific expertise.”

I’m now tending towards belief that it was attributed to him after the non-fact.

This https://handwiki.org/wiki/Scientism gives some useful hints,
although I slightly disagree with the [perjorative] definition given there:
To me, scientism is the belief that all of humanity’s problems can be solved by science.

4. One of the Human Characters Was Probably Based on a Woman Lewis Lived With.

“Lewis wasn’t the sort who would go back on a promise made to a fallen friend. In WWI, he and a comrade named Paddy Moore agreed that if either man should perish, the other would take care of his surviving parent (both had already lost one—Lewis’s mother succumbed to cancer in 1908). Paddy ultimately died on the French front, leaving Janie King Moore behind. After the war, Lewis moved in with and tended to her.
The overbearing Mrs. Moore could be a very difficult person. Lewis’ older brother, Warren, was disgusted by her manipulative, “insincere” personality. “She … interfered constantly with his work,” Warren recalled, “and imposed upon him a heavy burden of minor domestic tasks.” In The Screwtape Letters, Lewis’ fiction clearly borrowed from his reality. Wormwood’s mortal “client” has an exacting mother who’s described as “a positive terror to hostesses and servants.” Almost every C.S. Lewis biographer under the sun believes that she was also, in fact, a caricature of Mrs. Moore. “

Science and magic can function as a religion
Science and magic encourage a lack of skepticism
Science and magic seek power over reality

What we have now, The Science, fit those premises. But The Science is propaganda masquerading as science, and calling it science doesn’t make it so. Just as calling men women or dogs cats doesn’t make men women or dogs cats. Actual science relies on the logic of the scientific method to test hypotheses about reality. There is no place for religions’ “revealed” truths. The essence of science is perpetual skepticism, as all hypotheses can be superseded by other hypotheses with more explanatory and predictive power. And the best response to the third point is Sir Francis Bacon’s aphorism: “Nature, to be commanded, must be obeyed.”

I’ve never read C.S. Lewis so I can’t comment on his work. However, the distinction between The Science and actual science is critical. If Lewis doesn’t make or understand that distinction (and I have no idea if he does), then I would be skeptical of the value of his work.

Fine article, Doug. I’ll post it tonight.

“Man” is just a physical manifestation of our soul in a body.

Our true existence is a spirit not trapped in the material world and limited to 5 senses.

We are only in physical form temporarily (albeit many times over) but each occurrence just a fraction in time.

Lewis’s use of Tao has always interested me. Not completely sure why he chose that word and I would not try to second guess him, but Logos might have been just as good or better. John the Apostle used it and so did Marcus Aurelius with similar intent.

Speaking of chaos, Steve Z posted this in another thread but I think it fits quite well here.

“Which men and women, precisely, are at the very head of this global crime syndicate?”

My view is that all the smaller semi-secret organizations — British Pilgrims Society, Muslim Brotherhood, Freemasons, Rothschild-Rockefeller cabal, Zionists, Mossad, Jesuits, SERCO, British Crown, Kabbalism, Orsini Black Nobility, Bilderbergs, Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, etc. — are just brands or flavors of the single underlying Luciferian enterprise…
It’s the same structure of flashing lights and loud bangs in the foreground, puppet-masters carrying on undisturbed in the dark, quiet background, that’s been rendered somewhat more visible through the Covid-19 exposure.

Covid-19 undarkened a window and revealed the Supergroup US Department of Defense-Health-Homeland Security-Justice-State-Treasury-Commerce-Education false front on the American branch of the global bioterrorism program…

Lucifer’s multi-millennial project — chaos as a world domination method — is that it’s far easier to destabilize and destroy and kill than to sustain and grow life.

It’s hard work building and sustaining civilizations, nations, legal systems, currencies, food and energy supplies, families and daily personal commitments to perfecting virtues in the service of God.

It’s relatively easy to foment internal conflicts, break things, knock out load-bearing pillars, tempt to sin, and kill…
Guiding madmen to destruction of self and others is easy, and that’s why it’s Lucifer’s go-to.

Orderly Creation is hard, and only God can do it.

Unc- Now you are talking my language, the problem is you waited until now. Some of us have been screaming this from the rafters, myself, since I arrived in this TBP community.

Why wait for this reveal until after the Covid scam is at the tail end? These works by Lewis and others are not news to you. The poison has been distributed for the most part, the human harvest is ongoing and NOW, the admission phase begins. Tell the marks they have been had, tell them it was all a bad plan and TPTB outright lied to the masses. Now, the proles are supposed to become so angry as to revolt and burn the place down?

Handing the club a revolt would be a bigger gift from the goy than electing the Golden Golem. I could have thrown a thousand praises your way Doug if this article were written prior to the Covid scam. For now, it was a very well written article per usual from you, I guess you need to work on your timing.

The big question now is will the proles be dumb enough to play the Bolshie Revolution game , 21st century edition?
Well, they are REALLY dumb.

You slay me, BL. Go back to the first two months of my blog and read articles like “How to Transplant a Human Head”, “Winners Who Won the Wind”, “Hunger for the Blackjack Agenda”, and “Disorder From Those Enlightened”.

You may have posted your (correct) opinions on Trump before me here but all of my articles post-2018 expressed strong skepticism on the Orange One while keeping an open mind for as long as possible. And my skepticism on Trump left not much room for middle ground either – like considering him as the Woman in the Red Dress (from the Matrix movie) in my February, 2019 article entitled: “The Most Interesting Man in the World: Two Faces on the Same Coin” .

From 2016 to 2020, I laid the groundwork on Trump and post the 2020 election, I showed no mercy.

Regarding Covid, I commented here on TBP in January 2020 that it was about “control” and later posted the following on February 8, 2020:

… all current global trends, including especially Coronavirus®, are about establishing control prior to the advent of a new order. Although the immediate future will be anarchy, out of that chaos will come order administered by technological switches and gates. And the future will be cashless because slavery is rooted in economics.

During the months of February through October 2020 I posted 20 articles destroying the Covid narrative and my March 3, 2020 article entitled “Six Ways Why Coronavirus® Fails the Sniff Test” received over 289,000 views on Zero Hedge before I stopped checking.

Beyond your comments buried in the nether regions of TBP article threads, how many stand-alone articles did you write again?

Unc- If you feel like you have spent the last three years relating to the proles that it is a trap run by a death cult with regards to the Covid vaxx, who am I to argue? I missed the part when you called Capt. “WARP SPEED” a wizard for the cult in very strong terms as to keep folks from sacrificing themselves. I know I did.

Will you now write serious hard hitting articles to warn the proles of the dangers of destabilizing this country with revolution as a result of anger from being duped with the vaccine? I doubt I will see (from any of the usual writers) any articles but those that stir the flames of revolt. The walking dead have nothing to lose by following the club’s instruction.

What is more cruel than to use black magic to convince these poor souls to volunteer for a shot that has killed so many? The answer, to tell them the truth about what they have done and let them ponder each day how much longer they have to live…..beyond cruel and inhumane. All in the plan for those who keep generational wealth by death and destruction.

There has not been, nor will there ever be any articles by me on this or any other platform. I am not a writer of articles, I am a commentor based in research and experience.

BL,

You’re delusional bud. Have you ever read for comprehension anything I ever wrote?

In a May 2020, in an article entitled “Suspicion and Skepticism are Vaccines for Deception “, I described how trusting Big Gov and Big Pharma was like being seduced like cattle down Temple Grandin’s cattle chutes.

In other articles, I warned against “Operation Warpspeed” and that “honest doctors and scientists” claimed…

…the COVID vaccines could deliver a “Trojan horse” mechanism which occurs when the mRNA spike protein in the COVID vaccine fails to neutralize the infectivity of virus variants. When this occurs, what happens is the variants are, instead, actually expedited to replicate within the immune system’s cells.

In articles like “Politicians Promote Murder, Mayhem, & Terror to Propagandize Political Agendas & Consolidate Power” (and others) I cited the 1927 Weimer German movie “Metropolis” as favorite of elite occultists and warned how the plot of the that movie described the trap of tricking proles into revolting against the establishment …. so the elite could, in turn, violently subdue the lower classes.

I know your heart is in the right place, BL, but you need to start paying much more attention as to what is going on out here on the internet. lol

You responded with …..well we’ll see , eye roll fluff off. I’m screaming genocide even then. That article was like a legal contract full of whereas and heretofores.

Dec/2021 would have been a good time to give a stern warning that actually looked like a real stern warning, but I’m delusional. A lot of souls could have been saved ……maybe.

Since we’re on the topic of doing things- for a change….

You guys should probably read the Turner Diaries if you haven’t already.

I live in the western united states. On the edge of a desert. If you’ve ever played the game Fallout: New Vegas, the terrain where I live becomes instantly familiar.

I deal with scores of Californians every night. California gets a large share of its water from the colorado river.

It’d be a big shame if somebody killed California, the current incarnation of the united states, and the dominant jou-world order by blowing up hoover dam with a submarine drone boomboom. A really fucking big one would be the only kind that would suffice.

The demographic chaos it would unleash would almost certainly result in the fall of america as it currently stands.

+1000 …great read UNC …brought to mind this little prediction. Are we there , yet?

The State has always been the patrimony of some privileged class: a priestly class, an aristocratic class, a bourgeois class. And finally, when all the other classes have exhausted themselves, the State then becomes the patrimony of the bureaucratic class… But in the People’s State of Marx there will be, we are told, no privileged class at all….but there will be a government and, note this well, an extremely complex government.
This government will not content itself with administering and governing the masses politically, as all governments do today. It will also administer the masses economically, concentrating in the hands of the State the production and division of wealth, the cultivation of land, the establishment and development of factories, the organization and direction of commerce, and finally the application of capital to production by the only banker – the State. All that will demand an immense knowledge and many heads “overflowing with brains” in this government.
It will be the reign of scientific intelligence, the most aristocratic, despotic, arrogant, and elitist of all regimes. There will be a new class, a new hierarchy of real and counterfeit scientists and scholars, and the world will be divided into a minority ruling in the name of knowledge, and an immense ignorant majority. And then, woe unto the mass of ignorant ones!
Such a regime will not fail to arouse very considerable discontent in the masses of the people, and in order to keep them in check, the “enlightened” and “liberating” government of Mr. Marx will have need of a not less considerable armed force. For the government must be strong, says Engels, to maintain order among these millions of illiterates whose mighty uprising would be capable of destroying and overthrowing everything, even a government “overflowing with brains.”

Deep Shekels wants out nation destroyed and making it happne a thousand different ways, but the most productive is aiding and abetting a foreign invasion. Demographics is destiny.

King Of All Nads
@kingofallnads

@GoyJester One of the takeaways for me from reading Glubb’s Fate of Empires is that racial diversity typically *follows* in the post-peak wake of empires, rather than acts as the precipitating cause of the decline. Greed and complacency and magnanimity signaling sets in among the founding native stock and then the doors are thrown open to racial invaders seeking to enrich themselves on the largesse of the empire.

Once multiracialism establishes a foothold in an empire, the end is near. Social trust is destroyed and betrayal becomes common. Schism and rupture are imminent.

This shouldn’t be construed as a reason to excuse the elites who manufacture multiracial open borders for their own ends. Emmmanuel Celler is still a nation-wrecker on par with history’s greatest monsters. But the 1965 Turd World Immigration Act might not have seen the light of day if the native stock Whites were still protective of their inheritance and felt a duty to their posterity.

US Government Pouring Money into US Invasion
01 Feb 2023
Darien Gap, Panama

Almost 0400 and the jungle creatures are loud. This is a mind dump sans edit before another big day talking with migrants.

Am still down here. The ‘migration’ camps have at least doubled in size since my last droning. This was openly done by USA/Globalists.

Appears the current rate of flow through Darien Gap is approximately 1,000 ‘migrants.’ The vast majority are military aged males. Roughly 90% of those I saw yesterday — and most days — are military aged males including teenagers.

Increasing numbers of Mainland Chinese are coming. I am here this time with two Chinese translators. One speaks Mandarin, the other Cantonese. The about 50 Mainlanders we encountered yesterday were all speaking Mandarin, none Cantonese, They are from many parts of China including places like Xian. They are flush with cash and appear to be middle class. They wire money to themselves in advance so that when robbed they do not have too much risk to the nest eggs.

Some Indians yesterday told me they paid 20,000USD/head to get here so far. They are heading to Los Angeles. Most of the Chinese also to California. One Chinese said he paid 7,000USD for the trip.

Meeting many Afghans. One yesterday from Logar said he worked with US Special Forces and an American friend from the Army is paying his way, so the Afghan did not even know how much this costed so far. I wanted to know more but some Chinese and others crowded in to tell some of their stories.

Many Pakistanis, Nepalese, Indians, #Chinese, and more from Asia. Massive numbers of Haitians and from all over Africa, and increasing numbers from south America such as Equador and Peru.

Panamanian authorities are handing the invasion very well. Senafront always professional. The places is crawling with #UN/OIM and all sorts. World Food Program. An entire eco-system.

Again, the vast majority are military aged males.

United States government may be expanding FEMA camps in USA. I have not had time to examine this but picked up credible information yesterday that USG may be planning to open many #FEMAcamps. Why? Why all the camps to pump people into America…and build camps in America? Will those camps have incinerators for Americans?

A clear #genocide is unfolding. I cannot say this any more clearly: Americans cannot hide from this. Genocide is coming.

I am quite sure I am more afraid of people who are themselves terrified of the devil than I am of the devil himself. For he cannot harm me in the least, whereas they, especially if they are confessors, can upset people a great deal, and for several years they were such a trial to me that I marvel now that I was able to bear it.’

The big push in all this tech is to gain immortality. These rich SOB’s know their time is limited on this rock.

If they can develope and download their consciousness into a ‘machine’ they can be immortal. The first steps are always a little at a time, so implants and enhancements are the immediate goals. Their belief system is the scientism(religion) of the day, their saviour they are banking on is tech. You are the testing grounds for all this, the tests are always sold under the altruism guise of helping the infirm or for your safety.

” Where the fire is not quenched,
and their worm does not die.”

A little context and plausible interpretation?

Mark 9:47 “And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:”

“Kingdom of God” (see note on 1:15).

Jesus said if you looked upon a woman to lust, you had committed adultery already in your heart. The eye can get you into trouble. Lust is carried out by first looking with the eye.

Mark 9:48 “Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.”

The eye can be evil, if it is not controlled. This is why the warning here. Nothing is worse than going to hell. Compared to hell, the loss of an eye would be minor.

Mark 9:49 “For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.”

The meaning of this difficult verse seems to be that believers are purified through suffering and persecution. The link between salt and fire seems to lie in the Old Testament sacrifices, which were accompanied by salt (Lev. 2:13).

The first phrase has reference to the “fire” of testing that every believer undergoes. (See 2 Tim. 3:12; 1 Pet. 4:12). The second refers to the salting of Old Testament sacrifices (Lev. 2:13). Christians offer themselves to God as living sacrifices (Rom. 12:1). They must not seek to do so apart from the purging fire God sends for their purifying (see James 1:2; Romans 5:3).

Salting with fire in a spiritual sense could be purifying and preserving the Christian. We know in the spiritual sense God purifies with His fire. Perhaps, this means we shall be preserved (salted), with the fire of the Holy Ghost. Each Christian is tried, as if with fire.

Mark 9:50 Salt [is] good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.”

“Salt is good”: Salt was an essential item in first-century Palestine. In a hot climate, without refrigeration, salt was the practical means of preserving food.

“Have salt in yourselves”: The work of the Word (Col. 3:16), and the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-23), produce godly character, enabling a person to act as a preservative in society (Matt. 5:13).

“Have peace one with another” (Matt. 5:9; Rom. 12:18; 2 Cor. 13:11; 1 Thess. 5:13; James 3:18).

Salt from the Dead Sea contains impurities and becomes easily stale and unpleasant in taste. “Salt in yourselves” is the distinctive quality that marks the person devoted to God. The reference to peace ties in with verse 33, which precipitated this whole discourse.

Salt, as I said before, is a preservative. You must constantly walk in your saved condition. How can you bring others to a saving knowledge of God, if you have lost your own salvation? To know within yourself that you are saved; walking daily in that salvation brings peace.”

As for the title of this article, everything the world enjoys today was brought to bear by the White Man, as we drug the world into the 21st Century, by the nape of their neck, kicking and screaming all the way. So, you sniveling POS need to look at reality as it is, not the way you want it to be. Intransigent people need to understand that the world will not stand by while you try to force us to abide by your dictates, and the reason we want to see George Soros and Klaus Schwab sent to prison, because they are doing the very same things as did NAZI Germany in the lead up to WW-II !!!

Ironic that the E-p-s-t-e-i-n Psyop came out right before the news went public confirming the greatest public child molesting campaign in the history of the world.
100,000 white male children molested by homo. EVERY day the news stated how important it was to have homo in boyscouts.

But americans would rather obsess about dating service with youger women for elites. 2 jewish people taken down and a smiling 17 year old with her family getting a huge payoff.

Interesting that Marx, Lenin and Stalin are claimed to be freemasons. Actually all 3 of them were jews. Like most of the Bolsheviks. USSR was the first country to recognise Israel.

The puppet show of the WEF, Schwab and his star trek outfits, Gates, Soros, Fauci etc etc hides the reality that a satanic Jewish dominated elite controls the world. Who is it you can’t talk about? Dare to question jewish power and manipulations and watch as they take everything from you.

The project veritas “revelation” is narrative spinning. They are preparing the narrative that naughty Pfizer and a few other wrongdoers staged the whole covid event for financial gain. In fact it was ruthlessly imposed worldwide by an unseen power base that openly controlled every government in the west and plenty of others beside. It heralded a new financial, political, philosophic and medical future. Any pretence of freedom of speech, “rights” or democracy has been done away with. The main objective was to put the poison in your arm at the point of a gun, not to make a few quick billions. The real reasons, what was in the shots and most of all who was pulling the strings cannot be discussed.

” The reason Jews are at the front of it all is because few others would dare to war against God as they…”

The Old testament is ‘rich’ in vivid crime & punishment, especially.

Adapting to “Ye Olde Engrish” admittedly a challenge. Thanks to algore, and various concordgrapesances?

Fascinating, to say the least.

for example:

2 Kings 9:36 Context

33And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot. 34And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said, Go, see now this cursed woman, and bury her: for she is a king’s daughter. 35And they went to bury her: but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.

Moral of the Story(s)? Some Peeps NEVER learn. But there’s ALWAYS a Remnant. Right Up until the Bitter End. Of THIS World.

The Gap In Understanding World Affairs –
It is becoming increasingly evident to me that the big question has to be: How is it possible for all the evil work carried out by DaDeepState all over the world, even considering the financial incentives involved to the co-conspirators and their natural propensities for evil – all coordinated with seemingly amazing effectiveness for centuries?

Well, the Bible actually has the answer and I have posted this thread before – There are several factors…. beginning with this question: Are We Governed by Humans? – https://crushlimbraw.blogspot.com/2020/11/are-we-governed-by-humans.html?m=0 – and that reference is just the starting point for our research.
This is a hard thing for both secularists and churchians, but that is the gap which needs to be filled. There is a dimension to life which most folks never see, and I don’t mean just non-believers, because Christianity of the Apostles has been changed to Churchianity – you can check that out at my library as well.
When Paul said ‘we’re not just dealing with flesh and blood, we’re dealing with wicked spirits in high places’ he wasn’t talking about Halloween tricks.
Just to give you hint where this is going, in order for DaMasterDeceiver (Satan) to rule over humanity, his first order of business is to infiltrate and corrupt the church……the rest is easy peasy.
Worldwide that is basically mission accomplished, except for a few outposts here and there – notably Catholic Abp Vigano, the Russian Orthodox church and a collection of small independent congregations around the world, including the US.
There is another interesting ‘coincidence’ – both Satan himself and his synagogue have convinced the world that they don’t exist. How about that, eh?
God ALWAYS has a remnant which carries on the work and gives them eyes to see…..and the picture is becoming clearer every day!

THE POWERS THAT BE.

The powers that be,
hide their plans in plain view,
by surrounding with noise,
All that which is true.

The powers that be,
Hide in plain view,
All of the harm,
They’re doing to you.

The powers that be,
Care not if they’re caught,
If you somehow still live,
While the others all rot.

The powers that be,
The most evil of bunches,
While you go to funerals,
They get hot lunches.

In the Simulacrity, the January 6th rioters fell into the gnostic trap of “reflexivity”.

“Scientific method seeks to understand things as they are”. Or “the truth of the propositions”

But “alchemy” defined by George Soros is to “bring about a desired state of affairs” by affecting change in the hearts of people. The purpose of alchemy is “operational success”.

Warnings of imminent nuclear disaster – 90 seconds to midnight on the Doomsday Clock, can existentially make you aware of our apocalyptic reality as it really is.

Life is always fragile, everybody, every moment is potentially always in danger.

Just in ordinary times you are fast asleep, so you don’t see it, you go on dreaming, imagining beautiful things for the coming days, for the future.

But in moments when nuclear danger is imminent then suddenly you become aware that there may be no future, no tomorrow, that this is the only moment you have got.

So times of disaster are very revealing.

They don’t bring anything new into the world, they simply make you aware of the world as it is, they wake you up.

If you don’t understand this, you can go mad, if you understand this, you can become awakened.

What is happening to humanity?

It is a simple phenomenon.

All of our so-called leaders have repressed everybody so much that the whole energy of mankind is ready for a global suicide and to be vaporized any moment!

This disaster may be just the beginning of a chain of disasters.

It is like boiling a pressure cooker but not allowing the steam to escape from any outlet, and just sitting holding the lid tight.

That’s what is happening.

For thousands of years humanity has been sitting on repressed energies.

Now is it time to blow?

Either a nuclear ‘Third World War’ or the birth of a conscious new humanity.

Either a Third World War or a new style of life has to be introduced.

For millennia we have been made to function stupidly.

We need a totally different gestalt, a different social structure, a different world view, a different philosophy of life in which intelligence. is respected, in which intelligence is supported, individuality is nourished.

But we go on doing just the opposite.

It is simply beyond the capacity of any individual to prevent this calamity, this disaster, this global suicide that seems to be almost certain.

You may feel helpless because you think in terms of helping all other people to also understand this insanity, and that is an impossible job.

The world is so big, and people are so full of violence that it seems the calamity is not coming from outside, but it is the accumulated violence in people themselves that is going to explode this earth.

So don’t think in terms of helping.

Then you will not feel helpless and you will not feel tense.

Just raise your own consciousness to the highest peak possible, of which you are perfectly capable.

Anybody who wants to help the world should forget about the world and concentrate upon themselves.

Raise your consciousness to such a height that existence has to think a second time whether to destroy this planet or to save it.

The collective is so rotten that it will be an act of compassion to destroy it.

But we have to prove that out of this unconscious, almost dead humanity, a few lotuses can blossom.

This is the only way to save this beautiful planet earth.

Remember, intelligence and stupidity are not separate energies.

The same energy functioning in harmony is intelligence, functioning in contradictions is stupidity.

Your whole educational system exists to destroy intelligence or to divert you from intelligence towards memory.

Memory is useful, utilitarian.

Intelligence is dangerous, it has no utility for the status quo, it has no utility for the vested interest.

Intelligent people have always proved to be difficult people just because of their intelligence; they cannot bow down to any stupid thing.

And our society is full of superstitions, stupidities; all kinds of nonsense prevails in the name of religion, in the name of politics, net zero, equality, Marxist woke-ism, or in the name of literature, art.

They all condition you to remain stupid your whole life for the simple reason that stupid people are obedient.

Intelligent people start thinking on their own, they start becoming individuals.

They start having their own life, their own lifestyle, their own way of seeing, of being, of growing.

They are no more parts of the crowd, they cannot be.

They have to leave the crowd behind, only then they can grow.

And the crowd feels offended; the crowd does not want anybody to be more than the average person, it is against the average woke person’s retarded ego.

The crowd, the collective, has a great involvement, the involvement is that anybody becoming more intelligent, more individual, more aware, will not be any longer part of their mob psychology.

The stupid people are many, the majority, ninety-nine point nine percent.

They have a great power with them, the power of violence, and they show it whenever it is needed.

Stupid people will kill for no reason.

They cancel, censor, repress rather than try to understand.

They manipulate rather than try to relate, because to relate with somebody needs great understanding;, manipulation needs no understanding.

Repression is easy, very easy, any fool can do it.

Repression is a trick to cripple you.

It is a trick to destroy you, it is a trick to weaken you.

It is a trick to put you against yourself.

It is a way of creating conflict within you, and whenever a person is in conflict with themself, of course they are very weak.

The society has played a great stupid game, it has put everybody against themselves.

So you are continuously fighting within yourself.

You don’t have any energy to do anything else.

Can’t you observe it happening in you?

Continuously fighting.

The society has divided you into a split person, it has made you schizophrenic and it has confused you.

You have become driftwood.

You don’t know who you are, you don’t know where you are going, you don’t know what you are doing anymore here.

You don’t even know why you are here in the first place.

Repression has really confused you.

Repression is to live a life that you were not meant to live.

Repression is to do things which you never wanted to do.

Repression is to be the fool that you are not:

Repression is a way to destroy yourself.

Repression is suicide, very slow of course, but a very certain, slow poisoning.

Expression is life, repression is suicide.

Repression means a method of creating conscience instead of consciousness.

Consciousness is non-repressive; it depends on understanding, it depends on meditativeness, awareness.

Conscience is repressive, it simply goes on giving you orders, “Do this. Don’t do that.”

It does not change you but it poisons your life.

Repression is the greatest calamity that has happened to humanity.

And it is because of repression that manipulation comes in.

Because you cannot be true with yourself, you cannot be true with others.

You lose all truth, all respect for truth.

You lose all authenticity and you start being deceptive.

Manipulation is a deceptive way of exploiting the other.

You lose all respect for humanity because you have lost respect for yourself.

Whereas intelligence is a total trust in your own being.

Intelligence is adventure, thrill, joy.

Intelligence is to live in this moment, not to hanker for the future.

Intelligence is not to think of the past and not to bother about the future: past is no more future is not yet.

Intelligence is to make the uttermost use of the present moment that is available, the future will come out of it.

An intelligent person does not care much about information and knowledge.

An intelligent person cares much more for the capacity to know.

Their real authentic interest is in knowing, not in knowledge.

The people who are thought to be very knowledgeable, educated are as ignorant as anybody, sometimes even more ignorant.

It is very rare to find intelligent people in the academic world, very rare.

Intelligence is not an achievement, you are born intelligent.

Intelligence is the capacity to be in the present.

The more you are in the past or are in the future, the less intelligent you are.

Intelligence is the capacity to be here-now, to be fully in this moment and nowhere else.

The work of intelligence is to help you to become aware of your own being.

Then you are truly awake.
