Akhenaten, Nefertiti and the Amarna Heresy

I've been asked by certain higher beings to Apotheosize the 13 dead apostles, finally after communing with these lofty folk for the last 10 years I can reveal their identities.
Firstly Akhenaten, the Heretic Pharaoh - someone who despite all efforts to silence him is singing his song of Unity, from beyond the grave and even from his grave.

ANCIENT EGYPTIAN CULTURE

Every story needs some back story, so:

Once upon in Ancient Egypt there was a pyramid scheme of hierarchical lies, a scheme in which all egyptians were trained/programmed to worship their "god-king", known as the Pharaoh. The hereditary title was carried by the rulers of Egypt, and the hereditary nature of throne of Egypt led to the encouragement of inbreeding between the ruling family. It was not uncommon for the Pharaoh to marry his sister, daughter, or another close female relative, and a royal wedding was indeed an event worth celebrating.

The chief instigators of this cultural program were the priesthoods of the various gods of the ancient egyptians. The priests encouraged the slaves and servants to give their worship to the pharaoh, as the divine representation of god on earth. The priest-caste had installed themselves as the spokesmen for various gods, and these power-hungry individuals used the Pharaoh to control the then most powerful nation on the planet. Different priestly groups would vie for power in those days, as evident in the changing names of the pharaohs through the ages. Different god-kings would take different names, partially dependent on whichever 'god' was in fashion at the time - i.e. whichever priest-hood had the most power and most powerful propaganda machine.

The most powerful propagandha machine was, of course, the pharoah himself - whoever controlled what the pharaoh decreed controlled what the people believed.

THE PRIESTHOOD OF AMUN/AMMON

The most powerful priesthood at the time of our story, the 18th dynasty of egypt were the priests of Ammon or Amun/Amon. From Wikipedia/Amun:

The history of Amun as the patron god of Thebes begins in the 20th century BC, with the construction of the Precinct of Amun-Re at Karnak under Senusret I.

Sensusret I reigned from 1971BC to 1926BC, Originally, this god (from wiki/Amun):

...Amun [represented] the primordial concept or element of air or invisibility... ...hence Amun's later function as a wind deity, and the name Amun (written imn, pronounced Amana in ancient Egyptian), meaning "hidden"...

a depiction of the
invisible god Amun

An invisible wind/sky god chiefly worshipped at Thebes, in the early times Amun was a relatively minor god, especially compared to the more popular Osiris or the Sun God RA.

However, during the late 17th dynasty (1500s) Egypt had been invaded by foreigners known as Hyksos (which translates as, well, foreigners), who had taken over Lower Egypt and Middle Egypt, leaving only Upper Egypt. After years of campaigning by the native egyptians, the Hyksos were successfully expelled and Upper Egypt was won by the egyptians, during the reign of Ahmose I - a pharaoh from Thebes. Amun was chief deity of Thebes and then... (quote from wiki/Amun):

The victory accomplished by pharaohs who worshipped Amun against the "foreign rulers", brought him to be seen as a champion of the less fortunate, upholding the rights of justice for the poor. By aiding those who traveled in his name, he became the Protector of the road. Since he upheld Ma'at (truth, justice, and goodness) those who prayed to Amun were required first to demonstrate that they were worthy by confessing their sins.

Sounds a lot like a certain judeo-christian nobodaddy father figure I've met a few times. No graven idols, we do not make images of our lord, but hey worship that guy on that cross there, see? By the way tell us all your secrets so we can exploit them.

A couple of hundred years after this event, during the early 18th dynasty it was a golden age for the priesthoods, monuments were being built and the amalgamation of Amun and Ra, known as Amun-Re, was the most worshipped god in egypt. More specifically these priests of Amun (the invisible sky-father god), were getting very rich.

AMENHOTEP III - BELOVED OF CORRUPT PRIESTS AMUN

Around 1353-1351BC the priests of Amun had it great. They owned all the land, everyone in the known world was paying them rent, tax, or some other form of tribute. This was during the later days of the reign of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, whose name meant Amun is Satisfied, and he was married to a woman named Tiye. Queen Tiye was a powerful woman in her own right, from a rich family - her father was Yuya, a rich land owner, and her brother was Anen a high priest of Amun. The worship of Amun was very much a family business for this pharaoh and his cronies.

Amenhotep III and Tiye, the Priest's daughter

Amenhotep III and Tiye had many chilldren, including their first born male and heir, Thutmose, which means Thoth-born, and was the Crown Prince of egypt until his untimely death, long before the death of his father Amenhotep III. (- Perhaps this was due to the intervention of the plagues of egypt and the angel of death? thank moses for that. or aaron -) With a name like thoth-born, it was likely he was an initiate of various mystery religions of egypt, Thoth being the egyptian equivalent of the greek Hermes Trismegistus, (see also Enoch) who are key mythical players in mystery cults/religions.

The death of crown prince Thutmose (thoth-born) was mourned by the court as a national tragedy, as all royal deaths were treated, but some also knew that this death meant that the next pharaoh would be Thutmose's ugly younger brother, Amenhotep. Little is known about the latter days of the reign of Amenhotep IV, but is suggested he was ill and went prematurely senile (- due to the murder of his son by the so-called "angel" of death -), regardless the exact date of his death is not known. Next came his son...

AKHENATEN - THE PHARAOH FORMERLY KNOWN AS AMENHOTEP IV

Bust of Akhenaten (Amenhotep IV)

The less prepared second son of this family, Amenhotep was crowned as Amenhotep IV around 1353-1351BC (dates are uncertain in this period for reasons that will become obvious as we go on). The capital of Egypt remained in Thebes, where the Amun priesthood had their great temple and largest land holdings. For the first few years of his reign, Amenhotep did what the priests of Amun-Ra said, and everything in egypt went along business as usual, temples were built, debts were paid to the temples and lo, the High Priests were fat and healthy.

In year 5 of his reign, something changed in Amenhotep, perhaps some kind of spiritual awakening, perhaps he got sick of having to give the priests all his moneys, or perhaps he became an Avatar of Ra. Regardless of the cause, in year 5 this Pharaoh tried to overhaul the religion of Egypt - a revolutionary idea. But first a little about his wife and family.

NEFERTITI, CO-REGENT OF EGYPT

No story about Akhenaten would be complete - or perhaps, even possible - without Nefertiti, beloved wife of Akhenaten.

Bust of Nefertiti, by unkown artist, who abandoned it unfinished

Nefertiti was the wife/consort of Akhenaten even before he was crowned pharaoh amenhotep IV - she was depicted beside him while he was still the king's son, and she was his queen upon his coronation. Akhenaten had numerous other wives, but held Nefertiti as his royal queen throughout his reign. As the reign of Pharaoh Akhenaten drew on, more and more power was imbued in her royal majesty Queen Nefertiti.

Nefertiti and Akhenaten had much love for each other, as can be seen from this quote available here, being written by Akhenaten of his beloved:

"The Mistress of Happiness, Endowed with Favors, at hearing whose voice the King rejoices, the Chief Wife of the King, His beloved, the Lady of the Two Lands, Neferneferuaten-Nefertiti, May She live for Ever and Always".

If those are not the words of a man in love, I don't know what words could be. The love in this family was apparently real and not merely a marriage of political alliance, as is so often the case with noble bloodlines.

But who was Nefertiti? If she was known as "The Lady of the Two Lands", could this be a reference to her being from a foreign family, or merely a title claiming Ladyship over both upper and lower egypt? Some believe Nefertiti to be herself a child of Amenhotep III and Queen Tiye, making her the full-blooded sister of Akhenaten/Amenhotep IV. Others wonder if she is the same woman as another of Akhenaten's wives, a woman named Kiya, or linking her to women Akhenaten married later in life.. And unlike most Royal family members of the 18th Dynasty, her mummy has never been found - or has it?

Regardless of Nefertiti's origins, these star-crossed lovers had several children and ruled egypt, apparently, as a family.

ATEN - THE SUN-SPHERE - as a representation of the omni-self

In Year 5 of his reign (1348/1346BC), Amenhotep IV introduced a new cult/religion - that of Atenism - , raising the pre-existing Aten (sun-disc/orb) to the status of supreme god, but (at first) allowing egyptians to continue to worship the traditional gods. Amenhotep IV abruptly changed his name to Akhenaten, meaning "living spirit of Aten," and then used his privileged status as a god-king to overhaul the religion of what was then the greatest empire in the western world. The new god (from Wikipedia/Aten):

 Aten (also Aton, Egyptian jtn) is the disk of the sun in ancient Egyptian mythology, and originally an aspect of Ra... ...The full title of Akhenaten's god was "The Ra-Horus who rejoices in the horizon, in his/her Name of the Light which is seen in the sun disc."

Representation of the One God Aten - though this representation is not Aten him/herself

And in nature the god Aten was said to be

The god is also considered to be both masculine and feminine simultaneously. All creation was thought to emanate from the god and to exist within the god. In particular, the god was not depicted in anthropomorphic (human) form, but as rays of light extending from the sun's disk.

Egypt was bout God Kings and dead pharaohs who had become gods in the heavens - in the sky, the realm of the sky father god who everyone thanked for being their saviour. Here we have a non-anthropomorphic (non-human) idea of divinity, an idea at odds with all other local religions at the time-period. Divinely inspired for a new religion, perhaps? The whole thing reminds me of this quote

"we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There's no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we're the imagination of ourselves" -- Bill Hicks

Scholars disagree whether this man was a true monotheist, or simply changed the chief god of his country for his own egoic aims. Though my gut tells me that the new religion was implemented to liberate his people from the priests of Amun. Ah, but how did he implement this new religion? By feeding the poor, the needy, and ensuring all his subjects received a good and happy life? By teaching the masses to read and write so that they could communicate in their own way?

NO!

Akhenaten began a massive buildings campaign, erecting monuments, and writing the name of this god in stone. [sarcasm]How revolutionary. [/sarcasm]

Well we can forgive him. It was the style at the time. Building temples was all the Pharaohs knew how to do in terms of religion, spirituality, and worship. Maybe if Akhenaten had concentrated on feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and sheltering the homeless, instead of building new temples and cities, the idea of one singular all-embracing consciousness would have stuck. Somehow I doubt it - these Amun types are tricky bastards. Sometimes is best to just get as far away from them as you can.

Which is just what he did.

AKHETATEN - THE AMARNA SITE

Still in year 5 of his reign, Akhenaten decided to build a brand new city, away from Amun-riddled Thebes. One can imagine Akhenaten being sick of years of threats and power-grabs from the Amun priesthood - he began living at this site almost immediately. This city was to be known as Akhenaten, meaning "Horizon of the Aten", and the society the briefly thrived there caused much controversy between the Priesthood(s) and the Pharaoh.

what remains today of Akhetaten - now called Amarna

After two years of construction (in Year 7 of his reign 1346/1344BC) Akhenaten declared Akhetaten to be the new capital of egypt, though the city was not completed for another two years. Since year 5 of his reign, Akhenaten was attemping to convert an entire nation to the new collective god-mind being known as the Aten. It would appear the priesthood of Amun (among others I imagine) resisted this process, so apparently Akhenaten had decided to build a whole new city for the purpose, away from the rule of.this corrupt priesthood. The priests of Amun down at the Great Temple of Amun at Thebes would have been livid - not only had this upstart King defied their invisible sky-father god had moved the Egyptian capital away from their (local) web of control.

I see this as a move to liberate the people from a life of pointless oppression. I see this move made by a flawed earth human (- with a massive ego -) to correct the path of the wheels of human civilisation, turning them away from the rule of a greedy few over a hungry many and point civilisation toward oneness and infinite variety. He wasn't perfect, but his religion/cult - and more importantly his all-encompassing description of the godhead - pretty much hit the nail on the head.

WORSHIP AT AKHETATEN/AMARNA

At the new city of the Aten, life was a little different for the common egyptian person. Here's why:

A 3D artist's reconstruction of what the Great Temple to Aten may have looked like. Art from here:

The centrepiece of his construction at the new city was the Great Temple of Aten. This temple was quite unique as far as egyptian temples go...(from wikipedia/Great Temple of the Aten):

One of the most distinctive aspects of the Temple was that there was no cult image of the god. Instead, the Temple was open-aired and had no roof, so that people worshipped the actual sun directly overhead as it traveled from east to west. In fact this was a common theme amongst all of the Aten temples; they were all arranged to direct worship towards the sky...

Prior to this, temples with be built such that as one ventured into the temple, each successive chamber became darker and more mysterious. Another aspect of the new religion was charity/communal sharing, for instance at the High Altar:

The offerings given here... ...dedicated to the Aten but were then used to feed the officiating priests, the temple staff, and even some of the local populace

So there you have it, free food for the populace. Most carved images of the pharaohs before this so-called Amarna Period had the pharaoh paying tribute to some god or other, with the pharaoh going to the afterlife and receiving that god's blessing ~scene missing~. In the Horizon city Akhetaten, the pharaoh was shown on equal level with his family receiving the light of the Aten, or the love of this God. You know, for free. Akhenaten would say that this love then radiated from him out into the people, so that all were one with Aten. Other images showed the pharaoh and his wife giving gifts to the people instead of receiving tribute from them.

Nefertiti and Akhenaten giving gifts of... stuff... to a household who was loyal to them

As for the the religion of the Aten itself, the ritual went like this:
(from wikipedia/GreatAtenTemple)

"Aten was celebrated daily... ...Akhenaten acted as his own High Priest and special roles were given to the royal women... ...worship rather consisted solely of singing hymns and giving offerings to the Aten... Some hymns told stories, such as one that attributed the Aten with the creation of the human race and recognized that people were created differently, to speak different languages and have different colored skins, while other hymns simply expressed adoration and gratitude to the Aten. Offerings consisted of food, drink, flowers, and perfume and were often accompanied by burning incense and pouring libations. On each day, the Royal Family approached the temple on chariots after riding up and down the Royal Road, and entered the temple precinct and presented offerings... ...while their daughters rattled instruments... The family then... mounted the steps of the High Altar where there were offerings of meat, poultry, vegetables, and flowers already laid out...  As the King and Queen officiated, priests then placed offerings on many of the other altars for the public people while music was played..."

I have to repeat this - under Akhenaten, the priests had to offer tribute to the populace, not the other way around. A priesthood doesn't need a reason to kill a king other than that, but the rampant woman-respecting this shameful pharaoh was indulging added another reason to the list.

For it was clear from the 2nd half of his reign that Nefertiti was displayed as being equal to Akhenaten, the Pharaoh himself. Some see this as an early feminist concept, others a simple act of vanity on Nefertiti's part. I'd say they were co-regents, as many have suggested. She was just as zealous about the worship of the Aten as her husband, and was an active campaigner for it in the later years of his reign.

Akhenaten and Nefertiti - co regents?

So this Pharaonic family abandoned the old priesthood of numbers and lies, of worshipping in dark corners following ancient, unnecessary rituals, to appease Gods that the priests themselves didn't believe in. These corrupt priests had convinced the layfolk that the Gods were real and that they, the priests, would intercede with the gods on behalf of the layfolk - for the right fee, of course. Instead Akhenaten and Nefertiti told his people that they were all divine, that divinity is encompassed in all things, for free. Instead of dark rooms, they encouraged his subjects to look at the sun, the stars, the sky. After all, the sky - or heavens - is where the priests claimed to get their knowledge.

ATEN AS HERESY, AKHENATEN AS HERETIC

In Year 9 of Akhenaten's reign, he declared the Aten to be not merely the supreme god (top-dog), but the only god, a universal deity, and forbidding worship of all others. As well he campaigned to remove Amun from the egyptian religion, ordering his subject to deface all of Amun's temples and images of Amun. This new edict also included a ban on idols and other images of the Aten, with the exception of a rayed solar disc (the sun-with-hands that appears several times above).

What we have here is a new Pharaoh, using his status as the Representation of God on Earth, to do whatever he wanted with the God-concept. Well the old brotherhood - under their current guise of the priesthood of Amun - didn't like that.

"What's that? You're using the God-concept to encourage everyone to think about the oneness and majesty of all things? No, that's not the way at all. You weren't supposed to be able to hear a heavenly father! No, you were supposed to let us tell you what the heavenly father wants you to do! And giving your wife power, no less. What's next, eh? Freeing the slaves?"

The Priests had been telling the common people that the King was the representation of their sun-god, Ra, on earth. It would appear thatAkhenaten was the first person to take this literally - to say, "yes, I am the god king" - and he was most likely the first person to be referred to as "Pharaoh", rather than just a King and a God.

This stepping out of line from what is allowed to be believed, this is Heresy.

Oh the priests would not like something that empowers people spiritually. The whole Business of Religion is based on selling spiritual consolation to those who have been kept in the dark, away from the light of the self realising that the self  is not separate from that which created/creates the self. Oh the omniverse sings the song of unity and infinite variety. These priests of Amun, and all who carry on their spiritual legacy NEED things to stay static, the same, as within these boundaries the sheep/cattle layfolk are easier to control.

This ridiculous setting of boundaries on the winds of change, the boxing and labelling of all things,
whereas those who dance with these winds are labelled as outcasts, heretics, stricken from the record. A false record has been set throughout history by those who would profit from the misfortune of others, and these scribes destroy or pervert the history of all would-be heroes and spiritual liberators, and instead name them heretics, magicians. This is largely true in what has come to be known as "the west" and has been so for years uncountable. When the true sages are burned at the stake, all livng priests and prophets should be regarded with a wary eye.

Heretics are, therefore, generally people who can be trusted - for any system that lingers too long will become stagnant, and in the system's stagnation the (wrongly named) priesthood of Ammon will enter said system and exploit it, setting themselves up as the both the benefactors of mankind and receivers of all goods. As the system is old stagnant, and folk are used to it - they have come to depend on it and so accept their brotherhood overlords, even as their children are born into slavery. At such a point, any folk who uphold the corrupt system are not to be trusted, and those who attack the system and expose its corruption, the so-called heretics become the voice of reason. This has been a digression, let's finish the story.

MYSTERIOUS LAST YEARS

During the later years of his reign, Akhenaten was depicted as an androgynous figure, with large thighs, a slim torso, drooping belly, full lips, and a long neck and nos:

The later, androgynous version of Akhenaten

It has been suggested by scholars that this later Akhenaten may actually been a woman - most likely Nefertiti - masquerading as a man. Some have suggested he suffered from a genetic disorder, such as Marfan's syndrome, causing is 'disfigured' appearance. It should be remembered that several leaders during this period, whether Pharaoh or not, are also shown with some of these androgynous features. So it may be due to the new religion of the androgynous god Aten, with these depictions being androgynous because the god is androgynous.

Could this be Nefertiti in disguise?

I'd hazard a guess that Akhenaten died in such a way that the public did not know about his death, at the earliest in year 13 of his reign. Nefertiti took up Akhenaten's mantle, like an old testament prophet, and continued engaging the people of egypt in the Religion of the Aten. She dressed as him and performed all his priestly functions, perhaps under the name Ankhkheperure Neferneferuaten. She wrote to foreign rulers requesting one of their sons as husband to consolidate her rule, but alas, the priests got to her eventually, deposed her and put a puppet pharoah (or two) in charge.

KV 55 Coffin that Akhenaten was found in - was already defaced when discovered

In any case, it is not known how either Akhenaten or Nefertiti died. Due to the heretical nature of their reign, afterwards an attempt was made to erase the records of that era. But thanks to the modern magic of DNA testing, what we do know is that Akhenaten's mummy was found in a tomb known as "KV55" - a tomb which had been defaced, as had the coffin the body was found in. On the other hand, the mummy Nefertiti has never been found. Though recent DNA evidence has found that the mother of tutankhamun is the so-called unknown "younger woman" mummy from tomb KV35. The DNA testing showed this "younger woman" to be not only the mother of tutankhamun, but also the sister of Akhenaten. This tells us that if Nefertiti was the mother of Tutankhamun, as inscriptions suggest, then Akhenaten and Nefertiti were brother and sister.

EPILOGUE:TUTANKHAMUN - PUPPET OF THE PRIESTS OF AMUN

The poor folk had come to love looking at the stars, which they associated with Aten. They preferred this to the old way of bowing to gods that they couldn't see, but that the priests insisted are real. But the priesthood of Amun had had enough of Akhenaten and Nefertiti's  revolutionary religious machinations, and after a sketchy period of succesion, they managed to put Tutankhaten on the throne, the pharaoh Akhenaten's only living male heir. The boy was only 8 or 9 years old. But that didn't matter, they put him in charge any way - easier to boss him round, see.

The sarcophagus of the famed boy-king Tutankhamun

Surely by whatever method, Nefertiti was out of the way by now, and the priesthood went full steam ahead with the new regime. They got Akhenaten's heir, Tutankhaten to change his name to Tutankhamun, in honour of their chosen ghost-lord Amun. Meanwhile the power behind the throne was consolodaited, with the beings known as Ay,  Overseer of All the Horses of His Majesty (later Pharaoh Ay), Horemheb, Commander-in-Chief of the Army of Tutankhamun (later also a Pharaoh), and Maya, Keeper of the Treasury throughout Tutankhamun's reign (who shares a suspiciously similar name to Maya, High Priest of Amun until 4th year of Akhenaten's reign,.

The boy king Tutankhamun died at a young (age 17-20),  possibly because of the angel of death, or possibly due to natural causes, i.e. birth defects caused by generations of inbreeding within the pharaonic line. But in any case, following the coronation of Tutankhamun, Akhenaten and Nefertiti's new belief system came to it's swift end.

This story tells of a legitimate attempt made by a flawed earth human, Akhenaten, to turn his civilisation towards the righteous path of recognition of the Omniself. Of course what happened instead was he, and nefertiti, were punished for this, with their names stricken from the record and their glorious city, Akhetaten, covered up with sand by the 'power behind the throne' of the day. Fortunately, this plan backfired - as the sand covering left the Amarna Site better preserved than most other Egyptian relics.

This Ra-fuelled nonsense was written far too hastily. Praise be the name of Akhenaten. Praise be the name the Nefertiti. And praise be to you, for you are the infinite being that created the universe.
Praisey Praiseroo!

— Bill Lee

confused messy thoughtforms - info taking shape - information (in formation) - data squared - misanthropic tendencies imbued with omnivorous love for all creatures of non-existence - beingness of nothingness - chaotic quantum possibilities taking form & in-forming themselves of what forms have most room for growth… stale human systems interrupt this natural progression of ALL THINGS via our anthropic elevation of our abstractions over the real (example: contracts with ‘banks’ rather than contracts with plant/animals/minerals)

there is only one of us here. bad grammar, but true. [[[BAD GRAMMAR! GRAMMAR BAD! & buttocks are the truest things around]]]

all of science is built on rational thought - rational thought is what happens when you have a ratio between one thing & another - a ratio between ‘this thing’ & ‘that other thing’ - mathemagically:
a/b = the ratio of a & b

existence, being what It is, is infinite… like a god-concept even human existence (as Descartes would tell you) is singular, finite, not-as-big-as-god
singular human life represented by the numeral “1” (could use any ‘finite’ number)
eternal ‘godly’ life represented by the symbol “∞”

ratio of your human existence to a god-like eternal powerful existence:

1/∞ = 0

so a finite human existence amounts to nothing in the usual western worldview, hurrah.

consider:
the uni(omni)verse is infinite

infinite means no limits; means anything that has a limit has an infinite amount of ‘wiggle room’ within whatever limits. example of limit: “thinking thingy” inside a “human body” - the individual “I” or “1” or “self” is as infinite as the god self, expressed mathemagically as

1 -> ∞

so that human existence is expressed

∞/∞ = ?

“∞” (aka infinity) doesn’t divide neatly into “1” (or “one”) like other fancy maths wank symbols. we don’t know what your human existence with infinite potential will look like over the ‘entirety of existence’ aka universe - it’s a Capital Question Mark, completely variable/mutable CHANGING & up to you of course how this change takes course, of course a horse is mr ed & such of course

old world philosophy tells that each of us amounts to nothing
new world philosophy tells that each of us amounts to everything, & whatever you want to do with that is up to you.

modern scientists don’t like infinity. rational as dissected grammagically:
rational == of ratio == with division == dividing thoughtforms

rational thought makes one see everything as separate - divides the universe in two then in threes & fours & fives & forever… leading to rational thoughts best friend mathematics, leading to some topics named Physics, Biology, Chemistry, etc, PRAISE SCIENCE - science is built on the rational, the ratio, on rations - in short getting rid of infinity, because infinity is really, really, really fucking scary to the “average mind”
rational thought: useful for Getting Things Done. However, NOT useful for explaining the ‘deeper questions’ bout life & death & thing & stuff. once you get caught up in Getting Things Done, ya forget to work out What To Do, Who You Are, & Why I’m Doing Anything At All Anyways, Ya Know? rational thought, believing in limitations as it does, leads to various Dead Ends.

an example of dead ends due to rationality (aka Fear of the Infinite)
Modern Physicists/Cosmologists tend to use mathematical model to predict the POTENTIAL outcomes of physical processes - example: how much energy a human body contains. Again & again when calculating the details of physical processes, these mathematical meta-physicists come across number that look like INFINITE amounts. The physicists, uncomfortable with ANYthing being infinite, perform a mathematical trick called renormalization to ‘make the infinities disappear’.

In other words, physicists predict infinite energies, particularly when dealing with sub-atomic particles, which are everywhere - including INSIDE YOU but of course that is “not rational”, so we ignore these beautiful ideas of infinite potential inside each living thing, each ‘non-living’ molecule/particle/speck or cloud/planet/star, merely in order to maintain the “idea of scarcity” in order to control resources. clearly i’m digressing, & i blame you.

irrational thought is the negation of rational thought - grammagically:
(ir)rational == not rational == NOT of ratios == without divisions == uniting thoughtforms

irrational thought is ‘seeing without distinctions’ which is a useful tool if ya wanna Forget Everything & Know Nothing & therefore Remember Anything - eastern mystic hyperdriven ratios gets BEYOND ratios - irrationality rampant except in europe before the Masonic disease spread from there to this globe

lil kids probly see no division between themselves & the universe. probably true for the “monkeys we evolved from”… then we “grow up” & get all “rational” and say things like, “that thing over there is separate to me, i’m gonna compare it to me” - takin’ a ratio, yo - we start working out the ‘mechanics’ of this & that, then we learn to make fire, & make the wheel, & all sorts of man-made mishmash that came from that leading to the fancy things that let me write this HERE & you read this THERE… [[[irrational thought reminds me that ‘here’ IS ‘there’ & that i aint not no undummy]]]

the only way to get to understanding that stuff is to be BEYOND rational thought…

BRIEF HISTORY OF EVOLUTION: stuff starts out as irrational ‘unthinking’ consciousness - stardust & bigbangstuff, then evolves to a point where it can be repeatable shapes & ‘things’ - atoms then molecules then groups of molecules (see also plato’s forms, dawkin’s memetics), these shapes & things grow & change & morph, still ‘irrational’ beings if you look at plants and animals & MONKEYS… [[[INSERT MISSING LINK HERE - (ancient astronauts, duh)]]] then we evolve to a point where can make ratios, make divisions, have understanding of dead things to use as toolstuff, ideas like spears & fire & wheels (throwing spears of wheels ON fire, mwahaha) - that clever thinking but then we are HERE & NOW with all these Human Organism Extensions, roads, building, electric cable network, shops - WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE & WHY?

we humans are just one ant-hill in a galactic humanoid antfarm, but collectively we earthlings lack a queen
 ~ insert diatribe about MotherEarth/Gaia - MotherMary/MaryJane - Gaia/Maya/Aya - Ayahuasca HALLUCINOGENS ARE FROM OUTER SPACE working for our Earth Queen - planetary consciousness is a feminist ~

maybe you can see what irrational thought is for… the next step in our evolution as a SPECIES
if we can see without ratios, without comparison, without ANY illuminati-driven LIES hiding the glaring FACT that you:

YOU, WHOEVER IS READING THIS CREATED THE FUCKING UNIVERSE
(& that goes for anyone not reading it too)

AND you still ARE, as am i, as are we - we being all one MASSIVE UNIVERSAL consciousness dreaming this nonsense all over the frickin place… irrational thought is the only way to see through walls, this so-called ‘doors of perception’, to claim the world as your plaything & brother playing back, to pronounce:
“yes, I too, have the power of the Creator’

… our universe - or should i say PYSCHIC PLAYGROUND - is an irrational place … being infinite being… infinity cannot be understood with rational thought.

rationality = fear of the infinite = stuck in a self-made box
irrationality = embracing the infinite = beyond all walls

here’s hoping to use irrational science to manufacture a device with the ability to walk through walls to sell to some fat american consumers, dollars, cash, WIN!

My New Smartphone is Low on Memory!?!

I purchased a Huawei Ascend Y100 - my 2nd android that i've owned (i broke my last one, d'oh). With my brand new android, I allowed the Google Play app to update my google maps, my documents2go, and a couple of other default apps, and after this small update the phone was already low of memory. Brand new phone, one update session, and the internal memory of the phone is already full? Bah, i thought, i will remove these default apps, filling up my phone with their unnecessary clutter.

I could uninstall an app if installed it myself, BUT when I tried to delete the default apps that came with the phone, the "uninstall" button was greyed out.

On an unrooted phone, ya can't uninstall system apps like voice search

I used search engines to ask the internet how to "uninstall default applications" and found out that these un-uninstall-able apps are known as "system apps".
AND that if i want to remove any system apps, i needed to 'root' my android. Many forums asking me...

Is my phone rooted? Rooted? WTF?!? are trying to f*** me, dude?

Luckily I've used the linux operating systems before, and the android operating system (we'll call it android OS to save time) is based on linux. (well, Linux and Java, lots of Java - all phones are just java java java, the coffee drinking schmucks). Since i'm familiar with linux, i realise that "rooting your phone" means to grant "root" access to all your phone's files.

If you don't know what "root access" is, the equivalent in windows is called "administrator access". Like when you are installing an update and this stupid "User Account Control" (UAC) window pops up...

When you confirm this in Windows, you are giving "Administrator" or "root" access

that you have to click on before proceeding. Your computer has this security measure, built in to the operating system, to make sure you don't delete important system files that will destry your MS windoze installation.

Your phone has this same security measure built in, so that you can't go deleting system files that will break your phone, because by default you do not have administrator access - except on android OS this is known as root access.

...at least not without tinkering with your phone a bit. First you have to get your computer to communicate with your phone over the command line

Accessing your Phone from your PC via Android Device Bridge (ADB)

First you need to turn on USB debuggin on your huawei u8185
you can find this in
Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging

where to find USB debugging to turn it on

Next you have install fastboot and ADB tools on your computer. There are already some excellent howto guides on this step, so i won't go into it.

Here are some guides to install ADB tools (with Fastboot):
at dottech
at Redmond Pie
at techs tricks

Once fastboot is installed, turn your phone off and take out the battery, leave it out for a few seconds. We need to put the phone in "boot mode" also known as "bootloader mode". In boot mode the phone's screen will stay at the boot screen - i.e. freeze on the startup huawei logo.

to put the phone in boot mode, replace the battery, hold down the "volume down" button, then while holding that button press and hold the power-on button for 5-10 seconds. Once the screen is on, wait another few weconds and then plug the phone into your computer via USB (a native USB port, if you can). Your computer might then need to install a new driver for the phone in boot mode.

Next, on your computer, click Start -> Run, and type: cmd

A dosprompt/command line window will pop-up. Type in this window:

 fastboot devices

if it works your phone will be listed as MSM762A. This means your computer is communicating with your phone via the program "fastboot"

Flashing the recovery partition to ClockworkMod Recovery using fastboot

Your phone has a 'recovery' section - like how laptops come with a separate recovery partion to help reinstall the OS if things go haywire. We are going to replace the recovery program with a modded (modified) recovery program known as ClockworkModRecovery.

*** WARNING - THE REST OF THIS GUIDE WILL PROBABLY VOID YOUR WARRANTY***
I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE BY FOLLOWING THE FRIENDLY ADVICE IN THIS GUIDE

Thanks to Alan Orth who did most of programming to get CWM Recovery working on the ascend y100. He posted a guide but you need to be a developer (almost) to understand it. Follow the link to his guide and download clockworkmode recovery version 6.0.1.2 from the links within that page.

Download CWM recovery from the links on this page

Once you have downloaded the .img file, go back to your command prompt (dos prompt) and type:

fastboot flash recovery ***\clockworkmod_6.0.1.2_u8185.img 

but where i put *** you should put the full path to wherever you’ve saved the clockworkmod_6.0.1.2_u8185.img file, which will be something like

  c:\users\yourname\downloads\clockworkmod_6.0.1.2_u8185.img

then press enter. Once fastboot has finished copying the files over, disconnect the phone from the computer, and restart the phone normally.

Installing Superuser using ClockworkMod Recovery

Superuser is an android app that gives you root access to your phone. Once superuser is installed on your phone, your phone is rooted.

Download a superuser .zip file from the superuser website - though you'll want one of the ARM files (don't ask why ARM, it's boring and your ears will fall off).. The correct file at the time of writing (Jan 2013) is:

Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip

You can download this file with either your computer or your android, as long as you transfer the superuser .zip file to the removable sd card in your ascend y100. Once the file is on the sd card, turn off the phone, remove the battery, and this time we are booting the phone into "recovery mode" instead of "boot mode".

 To do that, hold down the Up volume button, and while holding that press and hold the power button. Hold both for 5-10 seconds, and the phone should boot into the CWM Recovery screen:

ClockworkMod Recovery startup screen - the top white line is "reboot system now"

The volume up/down are move up and down the menus, the home key selects an option. If you end up lost in a strange menu, there is a "Go Back" option to get back to the main menu.

Move down to the "install zip from sd card" option, press the home key.
On the next screen the first option is highlighted "choose zip from sd card", press the home key.

Navigate to wherever you saved your Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip (i saved mine in Downloads) and press the home key to select it.

The program will ask you (in an amusing fashion) whether you are sure. Choose "yes - install blahblahblah.zip" and after a few seconds it will tell you the file was installed.

now, ***Go Back*** to the main menu, and select "reboot system now", then press the home key
When you reboot, you will have a new app named "Superuser" in your menu.

Superuser in my apps menu

If you run an app that "needs root", the Superuser app will pop-up to let you choose whether to allow it root access - much like the "User Account Control" allow access window in Windows that I mentioned at the beginning.

Superuser pop-up to allow root access, much like the UAC in Windows

What NOT to do with a Rooted Huawei Ascend Y100 (Huawei U8185)

You can now delete or move anything that you want from your Huawei Ascend Y100. You will need additional apps to do this - such as the Astro file manager or Link2SD. Many apps downloadable from google play are only useful if you have root access - and now you do, so go nuts!

What you don't want to do is get your Android Device Bridge working on windows, browse around in various phone folders (/system and /data mostly) and delete import .apk files. that will break your phone. I deleted Maps.apk (google maps) and a BUNCH of other stuff, then my phone went real slow and things just didn't work or crashed.

What to do if this happens to you?
If you do screw up your phone somehow, you can reinstall the default ROM. It is available here. You can use ClockWorkMod Recovery to reinstall the default ROM, aka "stock ROM" once you have it on your phone's SD card.
OR you can do what i did and install the custom debranded huawei u8185 rom created by Sebastian Robinson

either of those ROMs will restore your phone to working order.

the main thing to remember is don't do anything technical with your smartphone unless you know what you're doing. If unsure of what you're doing, google it! there are answers here on the interwebs somewhere.

Hope this helps any would be rooters out there.
Enjoy!

Words from an old Daemon

The history of this world is much as you've heard it - life began in heaven and by "god's hand" has spread here, where you are being tested until "the living god returns" to take the righteous to heaven.

Life began in heaven means out there" at this point he pointed to the sky, "on a far of star system where the first life in this universe, where the first life evolved into the first humans. By God's hand means the microscopic biological material frozen but living in the void between stars - which is spread from any life bearing planet into the surrounding space, frozen in time until it reaches another fruitful planet. You are being tested, here (or anywhere) to develop into the type of creature capable of higher creation. Beyond which point a human species comes to develop an awareness of its own creative power, understanding that all existence is composed of this creative power, at which point the species' capacity for creative power amplifies as a function of it's own awareness, the two bouncing off of and strengthening each other until a Moment of Convergence in which, usually, the local human strain is "taken to heaven" - leave their homeworld and generally evolve into something beyond human. Though more often, the human strain is fed to their orbit star.

In other words, until such time as you beings come to realise that you are yourselves but aspects of the infinite one who are in fact "living gods" yourselves. There is a little more to it than that of course. Certain thresholds of population must be reached, and then maintained until certain star nodes overlap, but the self-realisation of the creator within is the most important requirement for a human strain.

(the Obsidian is a character created by Quant!M as part of a sci-fi/fantasy story he is writing)

Return to Lat-Nam (some fiction)

Meanwhile in Nat-Lam the Sorting continues in the Halls of Sorting as usual of course, several hundred drone humanoids ensuring that Everything is in its Right Place, led by SortMasters with monocles, top hats & cracking whips occasionally, shouting above the humdrum of hands moving voices speaking, click clack of objects thrown into trays on conveyor belts, a lone voice shouts from a podium in the centre of the room, booming his self-importance with every word through a megaphone.

"Differentiate the Product from the Brand & enstate the Brand above the Product & divide the products ad infinitum," shouts a fat purple lipped mouth below a golden ringed eye (of brown proportions), "Ensure the delivery of The Service to ensure that WE get The Job DONE!"

after sporadic cheers from isolated groups of semi-motivated Junior sorters, he lowers his megaphone & strokes his bulbous belly, smug like his father's father before him. The Taskmaster walked off of his dais & walked down the sorting lines, grinning under a swollen nose at the Juniors telling their ghetto stories.

"I once saw a crack addict in pain on the subway. He was hard on the powder & talking to himself like, all crazy-stranger on subway guy, then he pulls out this knife & stabs himself in the thigh! Then he like grabs his leg in pain with both hands and starts shaking about, howling. Like i said, i once saw a crack addict on the subway in pain."
"what happened next?"
"dunno, i got off at the next stop. He was still howling like a goose"

A SortMaster cracks his whip at the junior as the Taskmaster leaves the room.

Today is the 27th day of Janus' Moon

Today is, according to the gregorian calendar, the 27th day of the Month of January in 2012 AD

But what's all that mean? Aside from a bunch of names and numbers used to indicate a unique date/time distinguished from all other dates/times. But where do all these names come from?

[year] AD
AD is an acronym for Anno Domini, which is latin for "in the year of our lord", and 'our lord' of course refers to this guy


This designation A.D. can also be replaced with CE - standing for common era, this being an anglocentric (lit: english-centred) term but at least the atheists and other non-christians can make friends with it.

2012
A year is the amount of time it takes the earth, the planet we all live on, to go round (or orbit) the sun. This takes 365.24219 days, which is approximately 365 and a quarter days. So the year in our calendar is 365 days long, but on leap years we add a day so the calendar matches the earth orbit of 365.25 days. The number 2012 means it has been two thousand and twelve years (i.e. earth orbits of the sun) since the so-called year of our lord. That's a lotta times round the sun.

January
January is the anglicized version of the roman month Ianuarius (Januarius), a word/term first brought to the english world by the Roman Empire. When Julius Caesar became caesar, he corrected the existing (corrupted) calendar into a twelve month system known as the Julian Calendar, very similar to the calendar we know today. So it's all bloody roman eh?

The month January/Januarius/Ianuarius (whatever same thing) - is named after the roman god Janus (Ianius) who is the god of gateways and doors, beginning and endings, and according to this site Janus guarded the gate of heaven. Janus is always shown with two faces - one looking forward, one looking back - and often depicted holding keys:

In ancient rome, the door to the temple of Janus' was open during times of war, and shut during times of peace. Having the first month of our year named after this two-faced (war) god, opening each year with an open door of Janus means each year, we metaphorically walk into a fabricated (cultural) war-zone.

There is also a link between Janus and Diana - note the following quote from wikipedia:

The name is either derived from the two-faced Roman god Janus, from the Latin word ianua, which means "door", or it is the masculine form of Diana, which would be Dianus or Ianus (Janus).

David Icke would have a field day with that one.

Month
As well this is the month of Janus. The word "month" is related to the "moon". The moon orbits the earth, and it takes approximately 29 days for the moon to complete it's orbit, so every solar year there are '12 and a bit' "moons" - which has been broken up into an average of 12 moons, or months.

So the month of Janus is the Moon of Janus... having 31 days, the 27th day of this moon being the one on which publish this.

Holy Roman Calendar
Why do I mention these origins of words we use in our day to day lives, due to the international adoption of the gregorian calendar?

To point out that all these dates and days are named after gods & goddesses of the Roman Empire.
BECAUSE
The roman empire never ended, it has changed faces and bases of operations many times in the last 2000 years.

The fall of the roman empire was a gradual collapse during 100 years the 5th century BC. They had held all the lands around the mediterranean sea, but by the 6th century the empire had fractured into a myriad of smaller nation-states.

This didn't matter too much to the leaders of the empire, for 200 years ago they had already laid the groundwork to continue controlling the masses, after the empire would fall. The best trick those leaders of that empire did was create a unified religion for their empire. It was very useful to control the flow and development of ideas, only allowing the 'masses', the poor, the workers, the 'rabble' to belive in one thing, one path, one way, one truth. (Meanwhile the leaders were allowed to believe whatever they want...)

Spiritual Monoculture
That was a bit vague, so let's cement it with some facts and dates. In 325 AD, the roman Emperor Constantine held a council of priests, bishops, etc - this is known as the council of Nicaea, (cos it happened at Nicaea). At this meeeting/council, all the leaders of various religions in the roman empire got together and decided how to have one BIG religion so that they didn't have to compete anymore. Thus the birth of Roman Catholicism, a mish-mash of the pagan Mysteries of various cults/religions pre-christian era.

About 200 years after this council the Roman Empire had broken up. But that didn't matter, cos nigh all of the nations in southern Europe had converted to Roman Catholicism - believing that the Church and the Pope were Holy representations of the "one true god" on earth. So the nations didn't bow to the empire, bu they did bow to the church. This mass mind-control scam continued until the 15th century (1400s), when finally one Martin Luther (a priest) decided to point out to his fellow priests the corruption their organisation (CHURCH) was involved in.

you see, the control centre had been shifted from imperial/governmental control to religious control - even better due the Mandate of Heaven (i.e. "we represent GOD, suckers") - a hell of a lot stronger than the divine right of kings.

Intellectual Land Grab
After the Lutheran revolt and the Anglican secession from the catholic church the so-called protestant reformation), only THEN was the intellectual sphere of ideas open/free enough for the scientific revolution to occur. Only after the "holy mother church" was rebelled against could people begin discussing, publicly, topics contrary to church doctrine.

So after 1000 or so years of spiritual control, the monolithic church was fractured into competing belief systems.
That didn't matter too much to the invisible fat controllers, as by then the university system had begun, a whole new brainwashing facility, soon to spread and evolve into the public school system. More on that another time.

Janus & Personal Gateways
so January is the "gateway to the year" - it is a time to open up new doors and gateways within yourself - as well a time to close doors or gateways within that are not doing anyone much good. The two-faced Janus looks back to the past and forwards to the future, we can do the same in January to reflect and improve. This is the origin of the concept of a new years resolution.

For this the Moon of Janus in 2012, looking back I am not happy with my path as per the last 4 years. I have continued to belittle and destroy myself for failing to succeed in Academia - don't yet have that (second) piece of shiny "i'm smarter than you" paper from a University. I have felt much shame for this.
closing the door on self-impposed guilt and shame
~ door swings shut ~

Opening new doors - instead of trying to convince a bunch of liars and/or idiots that einstein's ideas are not beyond being questioned, I have taken actual steps towards careers in entertainment. I have performed at my first stand-up comedian event ands felt very damn good about it. Looking forward, I see nothing but infinite potential, and all my dreams coming true.
opening the door on self-actualization...
that door is always openING forever

Ending on a beautiful quote from one of those little book of calm type of things:

what you love doing is a message from your self as to what it is you should be doing for a living

Fun (Family) Facts about World War 1 - Rich VS Poor

The so-called Great War, later known as World War 1, was fought between 28 July 1914 to 11 November 1918 and claimed the lives of over 20 million people. European leaders (the RICH) and their colonial vassals used this war as an excuse to carve up the world map, making new empires and countries, all by sending each of their armies' troops (the POOR) to die for their country.

The Background
The Congress at Vienna was held in, you guessed it, Vienna, Austria in 1814, one hundred years before the beginning of WW1. At the Congress of Vienna, several of the major powers in Europe - Austria, Prussia (modern germany), Russia, Great Britain and France - got together to discuss how to settle 'their' territories. For years prior to the Congress of Vienna, much of Europe had been in a state of perpetual war for various reasons.From Wikipedia (bold text mine):

The Congress of Vienna (German: Wiener Kongress) was a conference of ambassadors of European states chaired by Metternich, and held in Vienna from September, 1814 to June, 1815. The objective of the Congress was to settle the many issues arising from the French Revolutionary Wars, the Napoleonic Wars, and the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire. This objective resulted in the redrawing of the continent's political map, establishing the boundaries of France, the Duchy of Warsaw, the Netherlands, the states of the Rhine, the German province of Saxony, and various Italian territories, and the creation of spheres of influence through which Austria, Britain, France and Russia brokered local and regional problems. The Congress of Vienna was the first of a series of international meetings that came to be known as the Concert of Europe, which was an attempt to forge a peaceful balance of power in Europe, and served as a model for later organizations such as the League of Nations and United Nations.

So the congress of vienna: a bunch of world leaders (and/or their delegates, right-hand man kinda people) got together to discuss where the borders on the map will be. The peoples of the various tribes and nations in Europe had no say in where these borders would be - no say in what country they might live in after the borders had been moved by these rich schmucks.

Historically the Congress at Vienna is looked upon with rose-coloured glasses as a wonderful peaceful pre-cursor to the United Nations (and the earlier League of Nations). But let's be serious. It was a bunch of untouchable, elite rulers discussing where to shove the poor so as to best control "the rabble". What's more this so-called peaceful discord occured after a prolonged slaughter of the general population (i.e. many years of war), so it wasn't that peaceful really.

Let's skip ahead 100 years to 1914...

Thanks the congress of vienna, and similar (non-public) meetings of a similar nature, the big powers in europe had obtained a 'balance of power' - meaning the leaders of those big powers chose not to invade each others territory, and there were a variety of alliances between empires and countries. Meanwhile, smaller 'nations' or groups of people often had had their nation(s) co-opted into one or another country/state/nation.

The Trigger
One such smaller country "under the thumb" in Europe was Bosnia-Herzegovina, at the time of the break out of WW1, Bosnia-Herzegovina was part of the Austrian-Hungarian empire. The Austrian empire shared a border with Serbia - Austria had annexed/stolen Bosnia-Herzegovina from Serbia not long before WW1. In 1911, a secret society known as the black hand was formed by some Slavs, Bosnians, and Serbs. This society was dedicated to the formation of a greater Serbia, for all serbs - whether bosnian, serbs, slavs or otherwise.

The trigger for WW1 was when a member of the black-hand shot in Sarajevo the heir to the Austrio-Hungarian throne, one Arch-Duke Franz Ferdinand (for whom the band Franz Ferdinand is named). Austria blamed the Serbian Government for this, rather than isolating the individual killer. Austria soon declared war on Serbia. This caused the big Austrian empire to call on their allies to shut down those upstart serbs. Letters and telegrams were quickly sent between european world leaders asking for aid/alliances.

This one assasination turned into an excuse for the big powers in Europe to go for a land grab. Britain and France declared war on Germany, Russia joined in, the Ottoman Empire (modern Turkey) wanted more territory too. The colonial countries "discovered" by their European parent countries as well were expected to join the war as well. Young men from across the entire globe were taken from their homes to "the g(l)ory of battle" to fight the rich man's fight for territory. The colonial countries in africa, asia & oceania were fought over by the vassals of their european parents. And at the end of the War, the US of A came in with their big (better) weaponry came in and 'saved the day'.

What we weren't told In the english speaking world, we tend to remember Germany as the enemy of WW1 - partially due to the influence by the obviously evil Nazi Regime of WW2 fame. But here's a fun fact:

The Kaiser Wilhelm II, the German Emperor at the beginning of WW1, and King George V, the British Emperor during WW1 (and afterwards), were first cousins.
First cousins declaring war on each other?
NO!
First cousins sending the people of the nations they represent to kill one another, that's what it was.

The father of King George V was King Edward VII of England. Edward's sister, Princess Victoria, married the German Emperor Frederick III - Victoria and Frederick were Wilhelm's father. The mother of Edward and Princess Victoria was the famous Queen Victoria, and the father of those two was Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (victoria's husband) who was also german. The royal family of England are essentially all of German Descent.

But just cos they're all cousins doesn't mean they talk to each other, doesn't mean they're friends.
aha but it does! From wikipedia:

Nothing Wilhelm II did in the international arena was of more influence than his decision to pursue a policy of massive naval construction. A powerful navy was Wilhelm's pet project. He had inherited, from his mother, a love of the British Royal Navy, which was at that time the world's largest. He once confided to his uncle, Edward VII, that his dream was to have a "fleet of my own some day". Wilhelm's frustration over his fleet's poor showing at the Fleet Review at his grandmother Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebrations, combined with his inability to exert German influence in South Africa following the dispatch of the Kruger telegram, led to Wilhelm taking definitive steps toward the construction of a fleet to rival that of his British cousins.

So there you go, not 17 years before WW1, when Wilhelm was already emperor, he was hanging out with his uncle, his cousin(s) and his grandma Queen Victoria.

Now, during WW1 the anti-german sentiment in the English speaking nations was strong. (See here for a brief history of anti-german sentiment, starting LONG before Hitler came to power. Germany really got a 'bum wrap' from other nations during the 19th and early 20th century.) During WW1, the english press demonized Kaiser Wilhelm and the german people in general - what's more, King George V of England changed his name from Saxe-Burg-Gotha (also Wettin, german, pronounced vettin) to the nice-english sounding Windsor to seem less german.

But why the anti-german sentiment, considering how interlinked the history of Germany and England really are? When Henry the VIII separated the Anglican church from the Roman church, Germany was meanwhile beginning the Lutheran church - so that both nations were allied together against the catholic countries. Interbreeding of their respective royal families has been going on for a long time, (Queen Victoria's mother was a german princess). Oh and by the way, old english is a GERMANIC language. yeah.

If you want my opinion (and if you've read this far, you obviously do) the anti-german propaganda was a deliberate plan to get the general population to be full of HATE and FEAR on a day-to-day basis. Our war-culture relies on a perpetual enemy. For ages it was the Germans, then the Russians, then "Red China", and now, "the arabs" who if Australian TV is to be believed, are ALL TERRORISTS. It's nonsense. My enemies are those on this planet who would create wars (aka wholesale slaughter of the poor) so that almost every nation is in a perpetual cycle of war/recovery/peace forever. It's ridiculous and manufactured by the ruling elites, keeping us scared to go anywhere else. It is SOOOOO last millenium behaviour.

In Summary
So - WW1 - for the purpose of expansion/consolidation of territories - as mapped out by the rich and powerful - 20 million or so people were sent to their deaths for 4 years. There weren't no big bad Nazis to fight, no true moral cause to fight for. It was not ethnic cleansing, it was class cleansing. World leaders - the untouchable class, who, if you haven't yet noticed, never are themselves on the front line getting their asses shot - sent millions of their own people to fight a pointless territorial war.

But has this stopped? Are rich cousins, brothers and sisters - or perhaps school chums and college buddies - making up reasons for 'the little man' to kill each other?

Yes, yes they are. Except as many of us are aware, it aint so much royal families now as it is the rich oil tycoons - the Bush Family and the Bin Laden family are friends dontcha know.

Who profits from war? Weapon manufacturers. Think about it.

So in summary this is how the rich really think of us (comedy sketch)



More on inbred royals soon!
Also I'll be releasing a video in early January, hopefully the first of many. Remember to think for yourself instead of believing what the mainstream media propaganda machine tellls you.

Birth - lies about origins

Every story apparently has a beginning and an end. This universe, many say, is no exception. The old stories of the creation of the world have a lot in common with our current stories:
 

Ancient Greek Myth: Uranus and Gaia banged each other and gave birth to Kronos
(translation: uranus (sky/heaven) and gaia (earth) rotated and gave birth to time. In modern science, the spinning of the earth in the sky makes day and night happen.)

and here's a popular myth that lasted a long time:

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Full of logical fallacies of course. But note the same pattern - first distinction is between heaven and earth. As though earth, this planet, were more special than all the other MILLIONS of planets out there in the heavens that might have other living breathing thinking beings on them.

Let's jump to the new creation myth:
 
In the beginning, there was a formless void of NOTHING, then the big bang happened, an instant during which all the 'forces' of the universe came into being

please be aware of the similarity between this currently accepted creation myth and the judeo-christian myth. Let's compare:

Christian creation myth
BEFORE existence, there was NOTHING
then THE LORD created reality.

translation: before existence there was nothing, then the lord, which we the priesthood represent, created all of you and all of this stuff around you, and you better listen to us and our rules cos otherwise that the lord will uncreate you, making you nothing again - we the priesthood will be the ones uncreating you of course, most likely by burning you at the stake, or, the lord willing, crucify you. Cos you are nothing, especially without us and the lord - for we are holy and you are shit.

Modern Physics creation myth
BEFORE existence, there was NOTHING
then THE LAWS of physics created our reality

translation: before this existence there was nothing, then the LAWS of physics, which we the physicists represent, created all of you and all this stuff around you, and you better listen to us and our laws cos we are so much smarter than you, and you are nothing. We got the math-lord on our side and we the priesthood physicists understand that smart shit but you couldn't possibly, dummies.
[[This from the same community who continually deny the prospects of "free energy", despite all experimental evidence to the contrary. Oh, and the same community which will not allow scientific inquiry if that inquiry is outside the bounds of "normal science" - particularly don't disagree with einstein, that dead guy is way smarter than you... DUH]]

to summarize first there was non-existence, then there was existence...
ex nihilo omnis fit
first there was nothing and now there is something

BUT wait... why this ASSUMPTION that there ever was "nothing" in the first place?
Because it is only an assumption. NOT a fact. In other words, a belief.

furthermore both church and science approaches of defining reality create an entire class of people with a lot of money and buildings whose job it is to tell the earthlings "how it all works" ... physicists = the priesthood of today.

I got a better creation myth, still ironing out the wrinkles though...

In the beginning there was THE infinite One which contained/contains ALL existence and non-existence. The INFINITE one is all there ever is, was, will be, all other things are merely finite expressions of the infinite one. In the 'beginning' The Infinite One spat out a finite blob of itself which slowly became our universe - via big bangs or 'let there be light' or some other nonsense - but our finite universe never really left The Infinite One - we are still inside it. This universe will continue unfolding... FOREVER. Today is judgement day, and YOU are the fucking judge, not some destitute old man sitting on a throne ready to rape your children. 
 
YOU ARE INFINITE
(you stupid bastards)

or putting it in a more accurate way, also making reference to recent popular culture
 
YOU ARE LIMITLESS

all limits that have ever been imposed upon any of you were put in place by folks who already know that they are infinite/eternal/limitless, and these folks restrict and limit our collective growth and development using the old LAWED routine

I AM THE LORD
obey the lord

I AM THE LAW
obey the law

YOU'VE JUST BEEN LAWED!!!
[[cue the guy coming in with the microphone, pointing the hidden camera out the rube, Hawaiian girls put those floral things round his neck, the rube awakens: "oh i thought that all these laws were real, now i realise it's just a sick joke the ethereal beings play on we the fleshy/material beings. Why did i ever worry about all those laws? HA!"]]

BUT those imprinted limits are only there so that we can learn a way around/over/THROUGH those limits. But we foolish sheeple run around the limiting hoops created by the fat rich fucks who spin this money pyramid bullshit.

Betcha didn't know that when people used to confess their sins to a priest, the priest would then tell the confessing serf how much money he would have to pay the church to absolve him of his sin? Not hail mary's, actual gold cash moneys.
...
kinda like how when you get a pointless parking fine and the state tells ya how much you owe them, then you pay the fine and absolve yourself from debt.
Sin = Debt

Oh and to arrogant people with scientific minds who sit around and scoff at christian metaphysics, patting yourselves on the back with how much more enlightned you are than those foolish christians:

what you have been taught to believe about modern science is part of the same fucking control system (you ignorant little fucks) that was used to keep europe under the proverbial thumb for 1500 years. Stop blaming the christian kiddies for believing a bunch of brainwashing lies, while you believe a bunch of brainwashing lies fed to you by mainstream science (lit: the metaphysics of einstein/newton/aristoteles - all morons). And mainstream science is an extension of the exact same control system which you scoff at. What you believe as "true" cos some fancy scientist said it was true is just an idea - supported by a framework of charlatans and sycophants. This method of "the experts" telling ya'll how it all works is now being used to keep you under the thumb now, you little smartarse pricks got any of your own ideas or is hero-worshipping ugly old men all ya got?

there was 1500 years of obeying the Lord
about 500 years of obeying the Law

Slowly the (mind)control mechanisms moved from the churches to the universities and courtrooms.

About 1200 years (since the council of nicea in 325) of letting the Roman Catholic Priesthood tell ya'll how the world works.
About 450 years (since Descartes mind/body mathematics mix-up in 1641) of letting the scientists tell ya'll how it all works - ascertaining god's laws with their maths.

Same metaphysics of scarcity, different big words to confuse and delude.

Same shit, different stink.

Hi there, My name is Quant!M, I'm an ethereal being from another realm - possibly even another planet in this universe.

Today is my birthday

I was born NOW and will continue to rebirth myself every moment forever and ever amen.

I created this universe and i'll do it again... right now... but i need a little help from everyone else who exists...

we created this universe and we'll do it again, right now...

everyday is our birthday

This is a consensus reality. We get what we expect. Overlapping Solipsist Bubbles - (but that's another rant).

Any who try to enslave and limit the beautiful people of this earth will get the fuck off of MY planet NOW.

All limits are only there so that living things can learn to overcome those limits.

Someone remind my why we earthlings don't have teleportation devices yet?
