Post #78 "Sin, or the Perception of Sin?"

Interestingly, the religions that hold the feminine in equality do not appear to have the need to wage power struggles, however, these few religions have mostly been overcome and stamped out by  patriarchal power religions. These non-patriarchal 'bested' religions were brought down through the perception of  'good' and 'evil'. The undeserved and abusive treatment and horrific murder of people whose only 'sin' was a difference of view has shaped our moral systems. The reality was that power systems that called themselves religion killed, abused, and pillaged for privilege and financial gain. Throughout history, horrific labels have been applied that separated good/graced from bad/sin... horrific labels such as 'heretic', 'gnostic', 'infidel', or 'witch'. It was and is all about reducing the feminine to these terms of identity and by destroying a threatening masculinity into the vulnerability of the feminine through torture and death. The loss of power renders the masculine deprived of masculinity and therefore becomes his shame; making hm and the feminine as one. What frightening, threatening words have been applied to innocent people who suffered unbelievable loss of identity through physical mutilation, loss of family and friends, through loss of home, property and peaceful existence. What did the word 'heresey' really describe.....an actuality or a perception... a sin or a perception of sin? Was heresy a sin within itself or was heresy a sin because it threatened Power? Is it logical, then, to suspect that that which threatens Power is referred to as 'sin' by the elite against the vulnerable? Is that which threatens Power truly 'evil'? And what of all those other words and labels such as gnostic, infidel, witch, all those gender and racial name-calling words and tags? What of all the words of sexual insinuation and discrimination? Are these words describing reality or non/reality? Did the actuality of what these people were accused ever really exist? Did their sin exist?
Was it sin? The accounts and lists could go on and on. Did any of these descriptive words truly define 'good and 'evil'? Did any of these words truly or accurately define 'sin'? Accordingly then, is it possible that sin does not exist in reality but is an expression of fear of the loss of Power? Is 'sin' the label forced on the vulnerable, the feminine, and those deprived of their masculinity by those thirsting for Power, by the elite, by those desiring to become God? Is 'sin' the vulnerable, the feminine?  

 

Post #77 "It's All About Division"

Creation is the process of division. As amoeba divides into male and female, and assumes the designated roles, the original scenario of Reality to non-reality is replayed now entirely within the walls of creation. As non-reality recognizes itself as weakness to Reality it must recreate within itself the dichotomy it needs to conquer its fear and cause the transference of non-reality into Reality. Amoeba sacrifices itself to create weakness from which its idea of strength, created strength that is, emerges. The scenario of Reality to non-reality is thus recreated within the walls of creation. Creation is needed to provide walls between Reality and non-reality. These walls are needed to block the view of Reality that the ruse remains hidden. Male cannot be male without female being female; without returning to the original amoeba. Amoeba, as non-reality, does not have the strength necessary to become Reality without energy. The energy can only come from within itself. Amoeba divides and forms within itself the energy to empower itself, thus male-power energy, female-food energy. Female thus provides the source of male's power but only when consumed. The first division, social division, male and female results. From here follow all social divisions. When male attacks male, male loses power, thereby rendering him vulnerable-female that he may be devoured. And so history unfolds..........

Religion presents itself at the beginning of history as humanity confronts nature and thereby initiates civilization. Religion divides into many sects and become the basis for all the wars and controversies through the ages. One could say that wars are political issues, but again, looking beneath the surface level of existence, history has shown that religion underlies and has formed the political mind and political issues and political activity. Religion creates war, abuse and suffering. History attests to this. Religion acts in the name of that which allows it to function undetected. What of Religion as to the process of division? How about the division of bad/good or evil/grace? Where is Reality here? Is 'grace' or 'good' the state of having achieved perfection? Is 'sin' and 'evil' Reality or the perception of Reality? Is 'bad' and 'evil' of Reality or of perceptions of that which threatens power? What about 'good' and 'grace', grace meaning blessed by God? Is 'good' a perception of that which accepts and empowers? How possible is it to objectify these words? How possible is it to not apply interpretive meanings? Can these words be interchangeable according to particular situations......according to how Reality and non-reality are perceived?

To be continued...........................

Post #76 "The 'Weak' Side of Creation"

Creation is the process of division. Creation divides itself, through the layers and levels of its history down to 'nothingness'. This 'nothingness' is the 'nothingness' of the abyss of precreation. Creation has beginning and end. Creation does not exist. Creation does not exist to Reality. Creation exists only to itself. In this process of division, amoeba divides down into male and female. As creation is image, it acts as image. What image perceives as Reality, image as image tries to duplicate. As image/non-reality sees itself and from itself conjures its impression of what it is not, image attempts to replay the original Reality-non-reality scenario. In this replay, the role of Reality is played by Male. In this replay, the role of creation is played by Female. As is obvious, female must be overcome by Male as reality must be assumed and consumed for image to transfer into Reality. Male thus assumes itself to be strength and must prove itself through aeons of competition, always striving to best, to overcome what it forces to become weakness that it may become strength.---the emergence of the weak side of Creation.

Its not that the feminine is weakness, but that weakness is feminine. The feminine is the representation of the negative side of creation, while the masculine represents the positive side; the duality of creation expressed in weakness and strength. Weakness has been named 'female' and is expressed in all the opposite qualities that have been designed and expressed by humanity to best describe the idea of human perfection, consequently of humanity's idea of what it calls God. Strength becomes strength through defeating and feeding. Weakness struggles for survival and finally gives up and lies down to be eaten, in other words, defeated----the creation of strength and weakness.

In the pursuit of becoming God, strength is seen as 'the essential' and so becomes the most important characteristic attributed to God--- strength-the ability to conquer; ultimately to conquer death. History, all the way back to the errant Sophia of Wisdom literature, reeks of attempts to disqualify any positive feminine ability or attribute and to render her nameless. Abuse, especially sexual, has kept the female meat for the hungry. Patriarchal religion has empowered and advanced itself though the consideration, application, and practice of the cruelest forms of abuse: the abuse of denying her a name as identity, the refusal to recognize and accept the female as equally human. The abuse of the feminine by religion through the loss of name, respect, and identity has been adopted and adapted throughout history to the present by social codes and standards and models of behavior, and has set and nourished the horrendously evil moral code of our history. Religion has set in process through abuse of the feminine its own desire to be the God it created to serve its own purpose.






 

Post #75 "Male-Female. God-Humanity"

Continuing the male/female dichotomy-----
As an attempt at survival, today's women imitate men as non-reality imitates Reality. This is the story of division at a basic level. This is the story of the desperation to survive. In the attempt to survive, women imitate men to prevent the loss of power, ultimately to prevent death. Imitation of men gives women an advantage often making them more appealing to men. The vulnerable seek protection of the strong/elite. But if a man would imitate a woman, he would appear demeaned and foolish. Men are flattered that women try to imitate them as this is further proof of their superiority. To be a loser is to represent weakness; to be considered feminine. This is our system of survival of the fittest that has determined the evolution of our creation. We reenact over and over again, the original drama; the first cause of our existence.....male to female as God to humanity as Reality to non-reality.

Here is where the Choice was made, to become that which we are not; to attempt to trade places with Reality. We raised a representative, an archetype, of all we hope to become. We raised this Collective Consciousness to the highest honor. This representation of ourselves was to be all that we hoped for and all that we dreamed of. We deified this representation of ourselves and for this occasion we created heaven. We named ourselves 'God' and placed ourselves in the heavens and in the churches, in governments, in arenas and on playing fields, in laboratories, on stages, on film and recordings, in business, and in finances, and way beyond all of these. This representative of ourselves, this archetype, this image of Reality, is the God of Creation. This God has taken many sizes and shapes. There are more images of this God that there are grains of sand. Our lives are directed by the creation and recreation of all our gods. The drama begins then, with the identity of the God of Creation and with all the gods we have conjured and served throughout all of our history.

Post #74 "Male/Female Dichotomy"

 This male/female dichotomy does not only apply to the gender division, but also applies to the male/female dichotomy that resides in humanity itself. As power devours, humanity's need for power determines what remains greatly limiting its capacity for altruism and especially compassion, which qualities, today, are almost nonexistent. These qualities have been drained and overcome by the need for power.

In all the struggles, wars and competitions that flowed through all the divisions that follow; religious, cultural, ethnic, racial, class, etc., the weakest position was and is determined through loss of power which is loss of masculinity. This loss provides food for the victor. The loser becomes meat for the hungry----the weakest being the one with the least power---the weakest always being compared to the most degraded of all divisions---the feminine. The side, position or person beaten into weakness, into submission is always the disgraced side that carries or is given the stigma of female. This is the shame, this is the status of shame that is given to anyone, male or female, defeated in any way; in any controversy, war, competition, or the like. This is the loss----the status of the masculine. Defeat forces one into the shameful position of being female or being compared to female. This one of shame, whether male, through loss of identity, or female through inheritance, is identified through a loss of masculinity/power, as a loss of substance. This one looses identity and respect. Consequently this person becomes only a nourisher and source of food. The lose of being creates energy. This energy is divisive and destructive; it is created through division and recreates itself over and over again according to its nature. The one of substance, the victor, having been fed the meat of victory, advances up the steps of Perfection, to becoming Perfect as God is Perfect---to becoming God. This dichotomy gives witness to the creation of creation, to the creation of image, to the creation of Non-reality. To who we are. To what we see as our purpose.

  

Post #73 "Male/Female Duality"

Of course, as we know, that of non-reality, that of 'nothingness', was insufficient when compared to Reality. But why would anyone think to compare non/reality or 'nothingness' to Reality? Yet this comparison of Non-reality to Reality is at the heart of this dissertation. It was this comparison that caused the dream and then the choice by Consciousness to become God. Here, all the futility began. Here the division became pronounced and obvious. It is with growing awareness that this choice of consciousness began to appear not as successful as dreamed and hoped for. The signs of failure are all around us and easily seen in our created world, our created universe. What have we done? Consequently, hunger, restlessness, and dissatisfaction are growing with each increment of existence. Amoeba, through the early levels of creation evolved and divided. Due to the driving and competitive need for strength, over compassion and brutality over tenderness, humanity developed strongest on its masculine side with predominantly male features in all ways: physically, psychologically, and socially. These male features were enhanced through eons of ritual, ceremony, contests, tributes, and games. The feminine side became weaker through the trials of childbearing, humiliation, abuse, and servitude. Today, even the feminine characteristics of the female are mainly undetectable as she gives in to the need for survival through betrayal of self. This evolution follows the plan of the time cycle of future to past. This was the plan that would fulfill the necessary steps to becoming God. This is becoming apparent today as we see the blending of sexual characteristics and gender roles emphasizing competitive and bullying characteristics.

Post #72 "Power/Weakness"

Reality-Entity. Non-reality-division. Division-duality
Continuing the duality of Good and Evil; humanity divided, for creation, by its nature, creates its own weakness. In duality, if there is power there must always be weakness; just as if there is 'up' there must be 'down', 'high'-'low', etc. Without weakness, how could there be Power? Without weakness, how could power ever be recognized as such? Humanity divided, male and female, for creation creates its own weakness that it may see and experience, and convince itself of its power. Each level or layer of creation is the story of the play of power on weakness. The position of power in creation has been referred to as male. In creation male assumes the prime position, the position of Reality, the position of God, the position of power, as opposed to female, to non-reality, to image, to weakness. All this division to complete the transference of humanity into God. Male, to be power, needed female to be weakness. How else would his power be recognized? The biblical Creation story from Genesis portrays female as being taken from the side of male, as being only a small section and consequently, the 'weakness' of male, the weak side of male, the side of male that would become weaker  and weaker through the layers of history to the final breakdown, the final breakdown which is the death of humanity. This weakness, this female, would succumb to and bring about, for male, the embarrassment and scourge of sin, the curse of sin, the curse of evil, the curse of death. Generations of evolution have insured female weakness. Female was conceived in weakness and was programmed for weakness through sexuality. Female was never intended to be anything but the weakness, the image of male, that would allow male to assume to become God. Male-God. Female-humanity.

post #71 "Staging Nothingness"

The staging for the drama of the existence of Non-reality/Nothingness continues. On this stage, the stage of "Nothingness", evil rose and took many shapes and forms. Evil was and is necessary for the transition of "Nothingness" into reality, of becoming God. On many levels and on many layers this drama had to be acted out over and over. Bringing about this transition was no easy thing. The staging must take place during all the increments of Time, and in every tiny piece of matter that was ever created. The dream was so nebulous, so fragile. The dream needed to be fed. But where would we find food since we live within our own creation, within our own dream, within our own image? We could only feed off ourselves. This is why we divided so that there would always be food. We divided, first of all into two-male and female, from here we divided into many, many divisions, many classes, many sects, much diversification. We became many peoples and we raged at each segment of the process of the division that best describes creation. There would be those who would eat and those who would become their food. It is all we could do, really! It is often called survival of the fittest. Humanity needs to be fed. Humans are hungry and crave food, especially human meat, for here is where the real nourishment is. We eat all that we feel lacking in ourselves and find in someone else, quite like cannibalism. Dreaming, desiring, and choosing what to become that which we are not, is the birthing place of evil.

Post #70 "What Did We Create?"

For six days we created and on the seventh day we rested in our heavenly, patriarchal kingdom. We divided, thereby creating male and female, for we do not know entity, thereby giving birth to strength and vulnerability. Then we saw that all we had created was "Good" because it made us feel that we were accomplishing our dreams and imaginings. We felt we were coming closer and closer to that Reality we so desired. We could not, however, be completely unaware of Reality. We feared Reality for the sin we committed. This was the side of darkness, the side of the deception. Our explanation of this was 'sin'. This was the side that knew what we really were; that knew we were image. Worse than that, we chose to annihilate Reality. Could we really hope to pull off this deception? Could we really hope to become Reality? Could we really hope to hide from Nothingness-from the Abyss? How could we ever hide from all our fears? Could we really hope to hide from Reality? We became the God of Creation, the God we created, but this God failed us. It is obvious our plan is not working. Our world is morally and physically sick and on the edge of destroying itself. This other side-this failure-this darkness, was our shame. We realized and realize this shame would always be with us. This was our other side, the side of us that knew that we could never be Reality. Reality IS. Reality cannot be created. There lies deep within humanity the desire to become God. Have we become God? Just what have we created? What about our dream? What about our desire? What about our Choice to create and become God? Just what have we created??????????????? We realized and we realize, with great horror, that we have created Evil.

Post #69 "Finding reality-Becoming God"

Studies of ancient cultures show that these people found 'reality' not by their own actions but by doing what they considered to have already been done by some transcendent reality. Life, then, was cyclical and based on constant repetition. Today we would classify these actions as rites and ceremonies. The purpose being to bring about a reality by performing a prescribed action. It could be seen as "if we do this, then this will occur". These ancients thought that if a chosen person imitated a god and did what they thought the god would do, then that person was the God.

Our long-standing tradition of believing that we become God by doing what God does is our reality. But what we consider reality is non-reality. We thought that by building walls we could become Reality by becoming like Reality, but by becoming reality as we saw it. We dreamed that we could take the place of Reality. We create the most powerful positions that we can dream in the hope of playing the role of that which we dream to become. We created our own pseudo-reality because we hoped we could defeat the darkness. We feared that in darkness we would fall into the abyss. We feared that we would fall into the void of pre-creation for the void of pre-creation is always with us. Because we feared the darkness, we created light. We saw the light as 'good'. We knew that our creation would begin and end in Nothingness. To defeat Nothingness, we created Time. We needed Time so that when we failed we could begin over again and again, day by day, week by week, generation by generation, each increment an admission to failure. Each increment an attempt to begin over once again. "Maybe, just maybe, this time we can get it right and accomplish our dream." For this very reason of the need to begin over again and again, we created Death. Because we feared emptiness and despair, we created Place. We needed a Place that we could gather all our pieces together and appear to be whole as Reality is whole as in entity. We divided the waters from the land and saw that it was 'good'. We needed a very special place worthy of our aspirations in which to admire and praise, to acknowledge and reward our accomplishments, proving to ourselves that all was working according to our dreams. We created kingship and titles of esteem that demanded homage and reverence to divide the elite from the commonality/masses to prove our worthiness for there cannot be Power without weakness. Our kingship demanded kingdoms in which to dwell in exalted states. We dreamed that special place of magnificence, that dwelling place of God, and named it Heaven.
