Everyone Has a Master & There is No Escaping It

By implication this also means everyone is a slave and always has been a slave.

There is no period where people have not been slaves. 
I'm not trying to paint a dim view here. I am pointing at it directly because few important things could be more true. And nearly all people deny it furiously so it's a perfect theme for proper scrutiny. 

Where is my master. Who is it? 

There are only two places my master can live:
  1. out there somewhere - and the thing which controls me
  2. in here - and the thing I control
If my master is 'out there' then my slavery is in the hands of whatever is, 'out there'. And I will complain my whole life about the problems I myself create in the world. Often causing a great deal of harm in the process. Having rendered my master and its actions into the unconscious.

If my master is 'in here', then I am in control of it. I am creating it. It belongs to me. Master and slave cooperate in harmony. My first duty in life is to bring this observation out into the open and face the dragon head on. Observe it, without judgement. And keep on observing it forever. Do not let go. Join together the master and slave I create in a holy union.

I create my master, it belongs to me, it is mine. It's a free choice for me as an individual to decide if I take ownership of it or throw it onto the world, knowing full well the consequences of my free choice - this is the definition of slavery. 

Jesus said, "If your leaders say to you, 'Look, the (Father's) imperial rule is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the (Father's) imperial rule is inside you and outside you. When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty."

So what does this mean?

Simply that all of us have a choice to make which no thing has the power to influence - you own this eternal decision which you alone make. You are the final arbiter - the first and last. And there is no escaping it. 

We can try to escape if we like by free choice. But then we are the slave, we are the poverty parted from its master. It has nothing to do with worldly wealth and power. If you find yourself blaming material world wealth and power in any way, that is a signal you have decided to escape into poverty. The poverty will now be your master. You will be the poverty. 

When people tell me about the history of slavery, I laugh at them in the face. Because I am a slave, here, right now, it is me. I have always existed. And will always exist. I refuse to escape. And these 'historians' are signalling they are far far away from the kingdom. Perhaps on the way to Mars.

PETITION: Government to indicate countries of the UK are open to accede to the US

Sign the Petition A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states.  Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or  England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious con...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle culminating in a financial crisis or a great recession. The 18.6 year period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this. And the politicians of the time used it to signal the day when the economy would be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because this period was about how long the people of nations could abuse the economy before it was too late to recover on its own and much worse effects would have emerged. So it was the wisdom of the leadership of the time. As the aeons went by, the meaning and rationale of this policy became normalised - people an...

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview?

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview? I didn't. But it's when I believe my worldview, is truth, that I become violent without realising it. This is extremely hard for people to accept as possible. The resistance to seeing it and the temptation to escape from looking, is built into its foundations. So, I never said worldviews are bad for us. I did say that when I believe my worldview is a fact, then "I" become root cause of the worlds problems. Thought creates an image of the world. Then thought worships the image that thought created. I am scared of death. So I create an existential worldview about immortality - an image. This can be a God, a political ideology, scientific religiosity, atheism, planet saving activism, anything which my fear of death can hide behind. So if I do 'good' through this image I created, I will ultimately get a 'seat on the right hand side of God' , or whatever the image I created has defined as heaven. Then I w...
