Whips and Chains Have Been Replaced By Consumerism and Ignorance
Those who hold us in servitude have intricate knowledge of how our mind works.
True to their corporate character, the mainstream media conglomerates that
control many different kinds of media -motion picture studios, TV networks,
cable channels, magazines, news papers, and book publishing houses - uses their
political and dominant economic ties across borders to not only sell products,
but justify wars, displace families, rape and poison this planet, and hold us in
eternal servitude
The recent wave of massive deals and rapid globalization have left the media industries
centralized in nine transnational conglomerates - Disney, AOL Time Warner, Viacom (owner of CBS),
News Corporation, Bertelsmann, General Electric (owner of NBC), Sony, AT&T–Liberty Media, and
Vivendi Universal.
These giants own all the world’s major film studios, TV networks, and music companies,
and a sizable fraction of the most important cable channels, cable systems, magazines,
major-market TV stations, and book publishers. AOL Time Warner has integrated the leading
Internet portal into the traditional media system also. Another fifteen firms round out
the system, meaning that two dozen firms control nearly the entirety of media experienced
by North Americans.
Besides producing movies, books, magazines, newspapers, TV programs, music, videos,
toys, and theme parks, among other things; these cesspools of greed and avarice
have extensive distribution facilities via broadcasting and cable ownership,
retail stores, and movie-theater chains.
Occasionally, they do provide selectiveinvestigative reports and documentaries that
address political issues, but the corrupt and swinish capitalists of these pop-culture
behemoths are mainly interested in entertainment, which produces large audiences with
shows like - Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Survivor, Subscription TV programs, or
with movies like Disney’s Lion King, Narnia, - you get the idea -which also makes
possible the cross-selling "alliances" which enables them to capitalize on people of
other countries, for example, Hollywood and Bollywood; possible. This is the focal
point of their attention and resources at this point.
This has led to inter-penetration into substantial global markets, and in the past two
decades, has had a global media system arise out of it that is having major effects
on global culture and politics(Edward S. Herman and Robert McChesney).
Fueled by globalization, the associated rapid growth of global advertising, through
improved communications technology has facilitated cross-border operations and control.
This entire game of conning the global population has been facilitated by government
policies designed by experts and consultants enlisted by these very same conglomerates.
Politicians Join the Game
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank are being used by The United States and other Western governments to further the agenda of the pirates of their own countries to enlarge transnational corporate access to media markets across the globe.
Neoliberal ideology - market-oriented reform policies such as eliminating price controls, deregulating capital markets, lowering trade barriers, and reducing - especially through privatization and austerity - (which is reduce government budget deficits through spending cuts, tax increases, or a combination of both).
So, no social services, and public pays for everything out of their pocket while getting nothing. These capitalists have designed and passed policies that empowers them to plunder and rob 99% of the people on earth and do it all legally. The government, the police, the military can do f**k all about it. How screwed up is that? You guys tell me…is this right…just?
A just culture states that mistakes are generally a product of faulty organizational structures. This is the faultiest of all systems in the history of humankind. We arrest and jail a hungry man for taking a piece of bread without paying for it. Why are we silent against committing these crimes? Because as oppressive and unjust these acts may be, they have made this colossal injustice legal. But this doesn’t mean we can’t do anything about it. The only way we can stop this is through education, and modification of our own behaviour, and for personal and moral support, we need to stand together. We need to take care of each other.
We don’t change the system; we bond together in solidarity as kindred spirits and change how we perceive and relate to all aspects Neoliberalism. This process in itself will lift up the global consciousness enough for us to become aware of what’s going on. Once we become aware, there is a possibility of a paradigm shift amongst the evolving souls.
Where do we start?
We start by looking at our mind and how it works more than the conglomerates whose slaves we have become.
The thoughts we think, the products we buy, the words we use, the clothes we wear, the car we drive, right down to the type of toilet paper we use, is determined by how we perceive the customized messages of these dictatorial capitalists. You change how you perceive things, you change your thoughts, you change your thoughts, you change the world.
This involves an understanding of YOUR sufferings, its causes, and possible remedies. Right knowledge comes from asking questions. Do not take for granted what the media, conglomerates, doctors, parents, politicians, schools, friends, society, or any guru tells you is the truth. Do not hand over your power to anyone, no matter how difficult your circumstances get, or how much you are ostracized.
Ask questions, verify your information and its source, then see if the information jives with your vibes. If it does not, then go back out there and dig some more. What is important, is whether the information unearthed, sits right with your truth or not – regardless of what others think or say.
I keep six honest serving-men and they taught me all I know. Their
names are What, Why, When, Where, Who, and How.
Don’t try to please others. Don’t try to fit in. Never believe that money is what makes a person. Never try to assert power over others. Never look for others approval. These are the insecurities that the economic culture capitalizes on.
The goal of right knowledge is to help you keep your sympathetic nervous system turned off as much as possible by choosing to spend as much time as possible stimulating the parasympathetic, where beauty and tranquillity reign supreme.
This is how you reinstate order through the mind to all other parts of the body right down to the non-physical energy patterns. Sustaining this transition will require conscious, consistent, and deliberate effort on your part to move from a catabolic mindset, into the anabolic reality so that the limits of the Ego can be transcended.
The ego tries to establish a home. It tries to establish an identity. If it does not get an identity than it will revolt. It will make things difficult for you. It will tell you that you are not good and no good. What you are doing is not right. Be mindful of this.
Wrong Knowledge
Wrong knowledge is any knowledge that keeps you in the suffering zone, a slave to your desires and those who elicit those desires in you.
There is no doubt that we have the capacity to question and verify information - to find out for ourselves - that which is true. But there are powers whose interest lie in obscuring your investigation to observe reality, remove contradictions, and see into truth.
Their interest lies in hijacking your individuality, awareness, and power, and in doing so they have a green light to promote their own agenda and investments. These powers are free and puissant to the exact degree you remain intellectually impotent. Their power is created and maintained through the stimulation of your faculties of fantasy and imagination.
If they provide you with your livelihood, continue to work for them, but don’t pull down your pants for them. You have more power and dignity than that. Dig deep down enough and you’ll find it. The only reason we take birth is to break free. And don’t forget to support the small businesses in your area.
Fantasy or Imagination
Imagination, when skilfully directed, can be an avenue to creative inspiration, but when handled incompetently, it can result in a wasted life through idle fantasy and a means to escapism. In worse cases, imagination can lead to debilitating fears and phobias.
The media, through news, is often used to instill fear in its citizens so those in power can carry out their unscrupulous agendas unbeknownst to the unaware. Unfortunately, in these times, our faculty of imagination is used mostly to amplify our fears rather than stimulate our innovative capacity because the populace remains uneducated on how we are being coerced into a herd mentality.
The Heard Mentality are creatures of habit with an insatiable need to satisfy ludicrous desires and maintain familiarity within the environment because change for them is scary.
Depression
In the end, our fighting and fleeing reactions in response to our frustrated desires result in mental and physical exhaustion. The end result of Fight or Flight is sloth, or depression and depressive behaviour. Sloth breeds darkness, destruction, and chaos. Known as chronic fatigue syndrome, this mindset leads to apathy, depression, insomnia, feelings of worthlessness, guilt, and in extreme cases, suicide.
Even here, in a person’s darkest of moments, the masters of greed do not hesitate for a moment in getting them hooked on drugs, which they have legalized through the pharmaceuticals. One colorful pill after another till you die. Now, you are not only a slave to their limitless products, but also their drugs. Now, they not only take away your money, but your mind and your life also.
Memory of Repeated Trauma (PTSD)
Repeated dissatisfaction and disillusionment, recycles fearful memories from past experiences that start to manifest in all areas of your life through worry and rumination.
The greater one’s efforts of self-preservation and promotion, the greater the subtle thought patterns related to fear of abandonment, humiliation, and scorn. Ego perpetuates this insanity by telling you that if you do not maintain your image, you will be ridiculed, lost, forgotten, or buried in oblivion which is death to the Ego.
These subtle thought patterns of fear infuse a lack of order within the atom's energy. An entire life is spent impressing and pleasing others without creating anything of real value that would contribute towards personal and universal evolution of consciousness.
Once we come to the realization that it is the collective conscious and subconscious memory that determines our future reactions to varying stimuli in the environment, an interruption in the path of negative thought processes can be introduced. This is where the healing process begins.
Do not die without sharing your potential for love with the people of this world. The key to freedom from this painful insanity lies in becoming mindful of your thought patterns and intentions. We need to diligently examine and re-examine our beliefs, values, and goals. To experience a different reality, we need to experience a different consciousness, replace the wrong knowledge with right knowledge. Examine your thoughts a million times more diligently than your most valued purchase.
Before we get onto what Correct knowledge is, we will touch briefly on what Ego is…maybe tomorrow. We will stick together through thick and thin - and when one of us anywhere on this planet is being oppressed - we all will join hands and stand in solidarity. This is what makes us human.
