Enlightenment — The Inevitable Dossier

We have all heard about the so called Enlightenment period in history. This was the 18th century European intellectual movement marked by a belief in universal human progress and the sovereignty of reason and an emphasis on empirical research in the sciences. It was the age of revolutions, were brave individuals dared to counteract the Church power over history, truth and the human mind. The American, French and other revolutions were justified by Enlightenment principles of human natural rights. Among the revolutionaries one can find names like: Voltaire, Condorcet, Gotthold Lessing, J J Rousseau and Denis Diderot. They along with many others were Enlightenment thinkers who believed in a new social progress and in the liberating possibilities of rational and scientific knowledge. Religion was equal to the human mind behind bars. So what is “Enlightenment”? Well, it’s just a word describing enhanced understanding. But, do not mix up understanding with knowledge. That is the biggest mistakes you can do if you are trying to enlighten your self. You can read and memorize loads of books, but still have no understanding of the purpose of the books.

“Knowledge is to memorize a book.”
“Understanding is to think like the one who wrote the book.”

During the Enlightenment period, old writings became of great interest. These were writings that had been guarded as treasures thru history. In history leaders with other ideals burnt such writings as soon as they were able to, as they were seen as threat against their own ideals and leadership. Today it does not matter who destroyed those old writings. What’s matter is that some of them did survive. But it wasn’t the contents itself; it was the ideals and the visions of the old masters which were important. Today, many years after especially old Greek philosophers most countries in the western world lives after the principals described in these old writings. Much of our present structure of society has its fundament there.

The Path to Enlightenment

Even during the darkest part of George Lucas great epic “Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back”, master “Yoda” refer to living spices as “Luminous beings”. Like many names in epic, the name “Yoda” may be etymologically derived from the Hebrew yodea (“one who knows”).

Enlightenment vs. “The Illuminati”

Well, this is maybe the most interesting part of the dossier. Does Enlightenment have anything to do with the secret society named “The Illuminati” presented earlier in this dossier? Well, of course and that why it’s so illogical that this secret society today is the centre of the greatest conspiracy ever. As the name is clearly linked to Enlightenment and as members were of highest rank, I find it’s more logical that the conspiracy theorists hold the big picture up-side-down. Think of it: It’s not a conspiracy if law enforcement plan an arrest of a criminal, but it’s a conspiracy if a bunch of criminals plan to kidnap a state official. So who can tell which side is the correct side, if both sides point out each others as criminals? Well, we’re back to enlightenment again. To realize that you’re holding such a great big picture up-side-own enlightenment is what needed. It’s very easy to believe you have the understanding about the whole picture, as some facts seem so true. And even if some of it is true, this does not state that you have the understanding of its importance or relation to the big picture.

Path to Enlightenment

Personal enlightenment at this level is probably the worst journey you can choose in life. I again state that: the more you learn, the more you understand how much you don’t know. I would make a parallel to the movie “The Matrix”, were the character named “Cypher” choose to go back and forget everything. This dossier may be the doorway for you, the red or blue pill choice as in “The Matrix” movie. We are all seekers, but what differ the successful from the unsuccessful? In most, cases I would recommend turning back as Cypher did and just live life without trying to figure out the big picture. Those who choose to move on just because they think it’s fun, don’t realize the depths of this and if things drift out of hand he/she may end up as a monk in Tibet or alike. Well, that won’t make the world a better place. Either which alternative your choice may be, you can read this dossier to the end as it’s “about”. “How” is a way of life. In this case “How” is nothing that you can learn by reading, its understanding that you get by living.

The ultimate understanding delivered by “The Matrix” trilogy:

“Why do you do it, Mr. Anderson?” asks Mr Smith.
“Because I choose to,” Neo.

Responsibilities

Is there any responsibilities to pay attention to if one go further. Well, it’s up to the person. I would say there are lot’s of them. It’s not possible to list them as they are individual. My general statement about responsibilities of those who get enlightened would be: “don’t take personal advantages”. Example: if/when you understand people better than they understand themselves, which is one of the first signs of progress; do not use this understanding to outmaneuver this person to favor yourself. Instead you should help and guide this person – without thinking of payback. Think of therapists, shrinks etc. What if they instead of helping people would use their knowledge and understanding to manipulate people with negative aims? Scary thought. But yet so real.

Is It Worth It?

Well, here come the problems. As soon as you begin to identify how much sadness there is out there and how many people and how many structures that needs to be adjusted, things get rough. In the beginning you will get direct payback as your own work will help people out. But when you start to work with changes in structures, things take time and maybe won’t give anything back at all. It’s important that you by time build your own character so that you do not need feedback to feel you done a great job. The greater job, the greater distance from it you will need. The best alternative is to help others to make and get feedback for the changes and all you get is the knowledge that you were the architect. So, is it worth it? Well, if you are searching for public acknowledge I would say No! But for the inner person of you, Yes!

The Alternative

What about the alternative: to choose life instead of trying to find out the big picture. Well, as I said before: We are all seekers. Even if you choose life, you wont be able to 100% let go of complaining about society structure, how people treat each others etc, etc. But, as I said before; Reading this dossier may enlighten you to a level were you understand that such complains does not lead anywhere, which make the choice of life even easier.

Is There a Way Out?

Could you do as Cypher did in the Matrix? I would say no to that question. Why? Well, as soon as you begin to understand some basic of your own views of life, you will see things brighter. This bright side of life is there all the time and darkness is just something we humans put in front to protect us from our own misunderstandings. After understanding and seen proofs of it, you have no possibility to go back. Your constant answer on the question: “How are you?” will be something like “unbeatable”. If you have created this situation, do you think you can turn back? I would say no, not by yourself – and this is why I many times in this dossier warn you. You will begin to experiment with the fundamental principles of your mind and as soon as you are convinced, you have put chains on your own mind. It’s like having a profession without using it. If your own path ends as a monk in Tibet and are fully convinced that that’s true life, then your only savior may be close friends or family members that knows you better than that. If they are able to convince you that you have gone too far and that you must take treatment, then I would say yes to the question about if there is a way out. I guess you understand the dilemma to warn you about.

Age of Majority

Most modern societies have several so called “Ages of majority” classifications. Some are written in laws and regulations and some are just commonly accepted. These classifications normally state a certain age for having sex, buying alcohol, driving cars, going to school and so on. We know about them, but generally just accept them as we understand the needs for them. Think about it again – is it really the age that decide if one is mature in a certain act or thought. Of course not and we all know this, still we accept them as we understand that they protect both society and the individual. What about the subjects mentioned in this dossier? Should there be a limiting age for having this kind of thoughts? Think about it, who would be able to set the age? Scientists normally say they became mature in their areas around age 30–35. Before this age they can do a lot of impressive things, but it seems like around the age 30–35 they become more understanding of themselves which creates a deeper understanding of science. Regarding the big picture, which I refer to as the subjects mentioned in this dossier, I would state that no one ever will become fully mature and therefore no one could ever set a level of age for it. And you should never trust one who tells you that he or she is more mature than you, as long as there is no specified area or subject of discussion. Maturity is multi-threading and even if one isn’t able to count to ten, he or she could be able to find solutions to complex conflicts in another area. The human mind is capable of such wonderful things and of course it could be used for other purposes also deliberately of not.

Choice — Is There a Why?

Choice is everything, but what is choice? Choice is the most lied about action ever. The question about why you did something could only be truly answered with: “Because I chose to do it”. The three: “Have to, Need to, Want to” are just simple and untrue answers to the question why you did it. Even if you try to present a more detailed why, you can’t present the truth. A more detailed answer would be something like: “it’s the sum of all events that made me choose to do it”. This answer isn’t very useful as it invites to more complex questions, which most likely will be even harder to answer. There are so many factors behind a choice that I would say that there is no why. The one, who pop the why question, isn’t really looking for the answer. He or she is searching for understanding, no matter what the answer will be.

Thinking deeper about this, one would get on the correct path in understanding illogical and extreme decisions if used the understanding of the non existing why. Illogical decisions and actions are linked to the individuals conscience and therefore it would be easier to understand if asked questions like:

“How did you think?”
“What did you do?”
“What did you say?”

As its understanding you’re searching for, why ask for a why when your subconscious do not trust the answer anyway?

The Wheel of Consciousness

Have you ever thought about how your mind works? Most of us haven’t. Even if the mind is a very complex system, it’s also very simple to understand its basics. Think of your self and who you are (self image) and try this mantra:

Self image → Potentials → Actions → Results → Self image…

The above is the wheel of consciousness. Your own view of yourself sets the boundaries of your potentials, which effects your actions and the result, which then affect your self image – quite easy and strait forward. One normally say: “If there is a will, there is a way” and your potentials is also rather easy to increase. You just evaluate your actions with the: “What can I do better?, How?, Test and Train” mentality. But, there is a part of the wheel of consciousness that makes everything complicated. It’s the wheels hub of subconsciousness I’m talking about. When the wheel rotates, the mind queries the subconscious, based on the present moment, searching for matching scenarios to use to fine-tune the rotation. It’s in this moment you can spot the liar, because he or she wasn’t able to suppress the subconscious adjustment to the actions. It is on this same level of understanding you have to be if you want to win US Open in Golf. The margins between the professionals aren’t physical any more; it’s all about the mind. If your mind isn’t having a good day, you haven’t got a chance to win.

The Hub of Subconsciousness

So what about the subconsciousness then? First you must understand that your brain uses all your senses when storing information in your subconscious databank. This means that, even a simple smell of banana can change the outcome of a thought or an action. Or if it’s cold, if a white bird appears, sound of a train, etc. So how is everything stored? What are memories? The key is emotions! Everything is stored as emotions with links to input from senses at the present moment. The higher emotion the bigger and brighter memory (stored information). Quick test: How much do you remember from the terror day of 9/11? Why do you remember so much? Answer: your high emotions that day made it for you. So linking the rotation wheel of consciousness with the hub of subconsciousness, you now understand that emotional memories are the key unlock your potentials. You now also understand how other minds work and thereby can change the outcome of their rotating wheel by affecting their emotions. OK, you get it. Your subconscious memories are programmed without your own knowledge. Who did it? You did it! Well, your subconsciousness did it. Now you also understand why you get so emotional when you walk into a church. It’s not the church that is emotional, its you. You have programmed yourself by continuously telling your subconsciousness that you should react in such a way.

Statistics say it take 32 times to change a habit. Why? Because reprogramming demands it. Example: you put your wristwatch on your left arm, why? Try change to right arm! When you have managed to do it 32 times in a raw without having to think about specifically, you will never put it on the left arm again. But you can decrease the 32 times if you link large emotions to it. For example: make someone hit you each time you put the watch at the wrong arm. You will definitely not need 32 hits to change your habit. Now you understand programming of the mind. It works the same way when doing more complex programming. For example: bite your thumb each time your have a good laugh. In time you only need to bite your thumb to bring back the emotions you experienced when you had those good laughs. Some minds are easy to steer and program and some are hard. The differences between them are how the emotions have been stored.

Emotions

If you win, how do you feel? If you loose, how do you feel? If you are about to talk before an audience, how do you feel? Do you think emotions are an important for you as a human? Of course your answer is yes. But how can one control emotions so that they do not impact as much? First you have to understand the basics. What is an emotion? My definition of an emotion is the reaction to the difference between the result from the query of the subconscious databank and the input from all the senses in a specific moment. If it differs too much, you get a reaction. Good or bad, it is stored to a level of clearness depending on how big the reaction was. If same thing occur again and again the reaction will decrease as you get used to and can predict it.

So up to now you understand that when you communicate, your subconscious will twist the information from you as well as it does to information coming to you. This ends up in a double twist of communication, which of course makes everything complicated or even impossible according to the great Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein. He studied the human way of communicating and came up with many great thoughts regarding it. Back to the twists, who or what controls them? Well, much of the mechanisms are built and based on experiences in life. But the personal fundamental values derive from environmental parameters such as: Parents, friends, relatives, workmates, media etc. Emotions is what forever will differ mankind from computers and robots as they must follow a given or a random pattern. Even thou their patterns are programmed for a certain cause, one must understand that our minds also can be programmed, and they are, constantly.

Conflict

Mind programming has its foundation in the abstracts of conflicts, arguments and beliefs. I would tell you that the highest building in the world is about 10.000 meters high. Let’s say you have no idea about how tall buildings are and then it won’t make such a great conflict for you or you are for example an architect with skyscrapers as your main profession and then you definitely will find yourself in a conflict situation. These were two examples on the scale of “importance”. Before one make a decision to enter a conflict one make a judgment on what one can make out of the conflict. If the scale of importance indicates low, you only will enter the conflict for fun or to be polite. But if the importance is high, you will use a skill called “Cognitive Empathy” to filter out conflicts that wont give what you want. It works like this: Either you judge me as being a liar, because there are no such buildings and skip the conflict to save your own energy. Or you judge me as a trustworthy person and enter the conflict because you get interested in why I’m lying. In this case you sacrifice some of your energy, but you gain a conflict.

This put you on the next scale, before the decision to enter the conflict. This scale I call the scale of “disguise”. Conflicts are good as long as there are good intentions. Conflicts move the participant forward, both in terms of knowledge in the specific subject but mainly in “Cognitive Empathy” skills. These skills are the most precious mind skills that one can have. These skills are vital to be able to lie and manipulate without being exposed. But these skills are also vital if trying to expose a liar’s intention.

“There is no problem, your mind created it for you.”

The above line is the basic foundation of Cognitive therapy. If one is a skilled interpreter of others (Empathy) cognitive mindsets, one can make a choice to stay disguised to drain the subject on intentions before entering the conflict. Either you put me as a trustworthy liar on disguise level low, which most likely will enter the conflict as you do not risk being manipulated by me or you define me as a risk and disguise yourself. This mean that you will stay outside the conflict and observe me and me moves against you as well as others. Maybe you have noticed that generally the most intelligent and most social skilled persons also are the most quite persons in ordinary discussions. But as soon as you step into their specific interests, they most often take over the complete discussion with great energy. Why? Well, by now you would understand it.

Learning this about conflicts, one also digs deeper into programming the mind. Those quiet individuals are the ones, good or bad, that have developed their understanding from experiences to core personal values. These core values are the fundamental seeds that create the ambitions and further the personality as a whole. According to me, we all are built out of conflicts. Our understanding and our skills in controlling this make up ourselves as we are.

Cognitive Empathy

When scanning thru all different types of mental treatments, I find the rather new area called “Cognitive” therapy to be the most effective and attached to reality. My reason is simple; by understanding the basics of it one will understand that most living creature’s needs treatment. Here we move across the boarder of what we considered to be a mental illness to the state which is considered generally normal. It is within this new type of mental treatment I can find what I define as the fundamental part of mental enlightenment: “Cognitive Empathy”. I would define Cognitive Empathy as the most advanced and complicated area of mental understanding. According to my own view of it, I would state that no matter how enlightened you are or will become, cognitive empathy will tell you that potentially anyone may actually be even more enlightened than you. Why is this important understanding? Well, what differs from standard psychology is that it flattens the otherwise so accepted hierarchy. In the world of psychology the great profiles (Freud, Pavlov, Wundt etc) are almost treated like Gods and this type of Gloria follows almost all individuals who work with psychology and mental treatment. Think of it and you will most likely agree.

Let’s focus on the major part of humanity, the 99,999% which is considered normal. My definitions of “cognitive empathy”, however, will not consider anyone normal. According to it, everyone needs treatment. This of course also include the one’s who are working with mental training. It’s just a matter of mental perspective. “Under the circumstances, normal” is the definition which can be use on almost anyone. It’s the circumstances according the Cognitive therapy which is the key. It’s about the mind and emotions. But were many cognitive therapists suppress the old fundamental ideas of Freud and others, I would state there are more keys than just the Cognitive path of psychology, which many seems to think.

Going back to the empathy of Cognitive understanding I would again state that there is a great difference between knowledge and understanding. I mean that one can successfully learn, teach and treat using cognitive methods without understanding how it actually works. And I also mean that someone who do not study or even have heard about Cognitive psychology may possess understanding of it by nature. This means that the treated subject may actually be even more understanding about it than the therapist without knowing it, which of course complicates things. Cognitive psychology is about how our mind process information. There is high focus on emotions within Cognitive psychology. How the emotions are affected by everything that the mind is processing in each situation. The more variables that the mind is able to process the better cognitive skills one normally say. I mean that Freud and other older doctrines of psychology are still as important as they were before. The cognitive path is just a new tool to use to easier explain why and how mental problems work and expand, but not why they occurred in the first place.

Abstract Reasoning

Understanding the basics of the above one could begin play with minds. A skilled chess player normally plan several moves ahead which include alternative moves depending on the opponent moves. A skilled player also study the opponent strategies during the, which gives extra information about which moves that will give most effective against the opponent. Thinking of something, in this case the opponent, and creating an image in mind of him/her to use for processing is commonly referred to as “Abstract reasoning”. By adapting possibly moves onto the image and if one or more are committed one are able to plot the opponent skills. We all use abstract reasoning in our daily life. Most of us just don’t understand it or think of it. For example the word “Happiness” is an abstraction of many things as there are people and events or states of being which make them happy.

Is there a relation between understanding and abstract reasoning? Well, I say it is. Abstract reasoning is the product of understanding. As soon as one gain understanding in a specific subject one automatically will begin to reason using abstract mechanisms concerning the specific subject. Some people do not like the humor of Monty Pyton. They may argue about the silliness in soldiers hitting each others face with fish or the silly walk sketch. However, I would say that the humor in Monty Pyton is aligned with those who use abstract reasoning a lot in daily life. Monty Pyton’s humor is not about what’s going on in the sketches; it’s about human values and behavior. So in the same way as the chess player build an image of its opponent, we all build images of our surroundings. And onto these images we put values, which make up our view of the world we which we interact with.

Freedom of Thought

Freedom of thought (also called freedom of conscience) is the freedom of an individual to hold a viewpoint, or thought, regardless of anyone else’s view. The suppression of freedom of thought is a prominent characteristic of totalitarian and authoritarian regimes, while freedom of thought is one of the fundamental principles of most democracies. Freedom of thought can be limited in several ways — through censorship, arrests, book burning, or, more subtly, through propaganda. Freedom of thought can also be stifled without institutional interference when the views of the majority become so widely accepted that other ways of thinking are repressed. For this reason, some condemn political correctness as a form of limiting freedom of thought. Why do some try to limit thoughts? Well, by know one must understand that thoughts, free from limits, is the key to understanding. Having own thoughts and by reasoning about them may initiate a powerful force which is so great that it may overthrow regimes if released to the masses.

Our skills in processing information are related to our view of life. If you wonder why you think society goes to fast these days, you may find the answer deep down in your personal values. Values are programmed, most certainly not built by you alone. If I were able to program your fundamental values, I would be able to limit and/or redirect your view of life and thereby also change your skills in processing information. I would say that the definition “freedom of thought” only state that we all are free to have our own thoughts, but it does not say anything about who placed them in our minds.

Truth, the Whole Truth and the Moment of Truth

Only in utopia, the perfect world, truth is the only language. I would state that human beings are of such a complex nature that truth isn’t the first language used. Well, isn’t that a sad statement? But, before you begin to raise anger about how wrong you think I am about this, you must understand that between truth and a lie, a wide range of options exist. It’s just a matter of why and how important the truth is and how big risk one takes in using creative alternatives. This has to do with our abilities to ensure that an escape path and a trump card exist if any of them are needed. It’s one of those attributes that we as humans inherited from a violent history. However, most individuals live their lives as closed to truth as they can.

Now for the understanding of truth; it’s obvious that the creative use of truth alternatives is a tool, which if used often evolves to a subconscious skill that the mind will use when it needs a creative solution. What most of us call a “white lie”; I also would define as the skill that may grow to make its host a great liar. So where is the real and undoubtful truth? As long as there is difference of opinion there will be no evidence that the undoubtful truth exists. One exception exists. The so called “Moment of truth”, which moves us closer to utopia, of course exists. This moment occur when we’re about to die and the mind has accepted the fact that escape paths or trump cards have played out their roles. In this moment a personality change may occur. Most religions refer this moment as the moment when he or she is being connected with the Gods. I would say it’s a lot less complicated than that. This is the moment when the individuals inner self take over. And if the outer self has gotten used to using many escape paths or trump cards in life, this moment may dwell in emotions.

Patience and Frustration

So what have we learned up to know. Well, at least we have come to the understanding that things are a bit more complicated than we possibly thought before. Combining these things together of course tells us that we should give more time for investigations in conflict situations. How much time? What is a reasonable? Who decide? Well, the sad thing here is that there is no such limit. You can always get in sync with others and make up a reasonable limit with them. But how many individuals must be among you before you can set an accurate limit? As there are no predefined answers to pick, frustration will begin to grow. The more people that get involved the bigger frustration. Why is that? Well, those who will object your invitation are probably not invited. They would have been a needed balance that ensured frustration didn’t grow to large. Frustration will grow to anger if either answers are given or balance exists.

Rumors

In a situation of frustration and impatience, seeds of rumors grow well. It’s a simple calculation to make; if one speak about something that an audience is extra sensible about, one get extra attention. This is the basic edge of manipulation, which in time will grow to a confrontation were the rumor has to be verified. Understanding this, one can relate spreading rumors to an act based on reasons.

Acts and Reasons

“We all have our reasons, what’s yours?” is a well known and well used line. And it describes us humans very well. All acts have reasons. And reasons are both conscious and subconscious. Understanding the actor, no matter how complicated his/hers acts are, is of course the most vital part in cognitive empathy. If the act is of a violent character, understanding will result in forgiveness. But it does not mean that the actor is free to do the same violent act again nor does it free the actor from punishment and/or treatment. The forgiving react enlightens the actor and possible will he/she come to understand his/hers own acts and reasons. A fundamental part of the actor’s psychological evolution.

Cause and Effect

The “cause and effect factor” is probably the hardest thing for human mind to understand. It’s easy to say that you know why “x” was the consequence of “y”. But in a macro perspective things get complicated. The well known metaphore “The Butterfly Effect” encapsulates this well. This is the meaning:

“The wind caused by wingbeats of a butterfly in one part of the world may be the initial cause which may result in a giant hurricane that may kill thousands of lives in another part of the world.”

The idea behind this is of course to describe the world as an integrated and interacting organism. I would add that it’s alike with cause and effect in the human mind evolution:

“Words and acts in one part of the world can make revolutions and wars in another”.

The main reason is of course that we have been raised in societies with different backgrounds and structures and are individually possessed with different mindsets. As long as the “Global Society” consists of societies with structures that aren’t compatible and/or in direct conflict with each others; the world will continue to contain conflicts, revolutions and wars. And of course it’s the individual man/woman who will be affected.

The Century of Lies

The 17th century is by many referred to as the century of lies. During the “Reformation”, history became increasingly important and some rich and profound individuals saw their chance to relate themselves with the great ones in history and thereby become of higher rank. The result was a wave of history books, based of nothing else than lies. With this knowledge, you also understand that you should never create a view of history just by opening a history book. The correct view of history is gathered by collecting and correlating many different sources. And even then you can’t be 100% sure.

“History is written and preserved by the winning civilization.”

This creates interesting thoughts. What if the Nazis had won in World War II? Then, if you were among the ones who were accepted, what would your view of history be? Allied forces, most likely would have been presented in quite a different light.

Manipulation

Definition: To control or influence someone or something cleverly and unscrupulously, especially to one’s own advantage. To give appearance to something, change its character (maneuver, control, guide, direct, engineer, influence).

Hmmm… Well, the word “manipulation” creates the shivers for many, but I must state that the skill of manipulation should not primarily be related to a negative skill. My definition of manipulation would be “to alter the subject’s mindset”. Treating mental disturbances demand good skills in manipulation, were the ability to be able to focus the mental patient on things that does not upset him/her is a vital skill. The reason why manipulation is such a negative word is simple. No one likes the fact that others are able to control their minds. History has told us over and over again that the mind could be a very scary tool.

False Flag Activities

The worst kind of manipulation is so called “false flag” activities. In complex situations were two parts are in conflict with each others, but are about to settle a peace agreement, one part can commit a bloody strike against himself and blame the other part and thereby achieve increased support among grassroots on both sides of conflict. In this type of activities media becomes the weapon.

Conspiracy

“Conspiracy, in common usage, is the act of working in secret to obtain some goal, usually understood with negative connotations”.

In the common definition above, the thing to argue about is if the intentions of the conspiracy has anything to do with the definition, or has it just evolved to become of such meaning. The term comes from Latin con- “with, together”, and spirare “to breathe”, which does not refer to secrets or negative intentions. The word “conspiracy” itself can obviously be misleading, which then must be understood before one can apply it to any activity. As a legal term, conspiracy has historically been defined, in America, as:

“It’s an agreement of two or more people to commit a crime, or to accomplish a legal end through illegal actions. For example, planning to rob a bank in order to raise money for charity is still an illegal conspiracy. The conspiracy does not need to have been planned in secret in order to meet the definition of the crime.”

From having this understanding about the definition one can look at some activities which may be considered as on the edge of illegal. In acts of and related to War for example, the enemies definitely work out plans and commit activities in highest secrecy, but this is not referred to as a conspiracy. Also spy- and intelligence activities are not normally referred to as conspiracy activities. This would mean that if one can trace a possible conspiracy activity to an act of war, it may not actually be an act of conspiracy. This would also mean that if you are on the right side of the law, as the Police for example, you are entitled to plan an attack against criminals in secrecy without being related to conspirative planning. And even lighter case than that, would be the fact that planning politics in secrecy isn’t either related to conspirative planning if the means are good. This understanding is a useful key when unlocking the great conspiracy.

Using Prophecies as Long-Term Politics

In history fulfilled prophecies are often taken for signs of the Gods in which almost every time will lead to increased power over the masses by those who relate events to the prophecy. However, the use of prophecies in politics has history far beyond the great fire on Rome in year 64, which were one of the great successes of using prophecies in Christian politics. This of course means that it’s very likely that many prophecies are nothing else but long-term politics. But no matter who write the prophecy, all can use them for own purposes. So here is a hypothesis on how to create a new world were much of the historic horror will be forgotten:

“The Maya Indian calendar is based on the universe movements with almost scientific precision and includes the so called “great cycle” which recycles each 5125th year. According to Mayan myths each recycle mean the birth of a “new world”. Believe it or not, but next recycle take place the 22nd of December year 2012. And while some Catholics today believe the Antichrist will be personalized by an upcoming president of European Union, one would initiate a process to enlighten mankind about the history of horror created by the Catholics. Eventually and hopefully some will question their faith as they themselves will conclude to have been misled by the Antichrist. By doing this, the historic blame would be put onto the Roman Catholic Church, and if next Pope dissolves his Church, he will fulfill the old prophecy of St. Malachy about the 112 Popes. Doing this the 22nd of December 2012 (Mayan new world), one can imagine that all major spiritual forces of earth will centralize to establish a new world. This of course also will fulfill the biblical prophecy regarding the Battle of Armageddon which include the antichrist’s (the pope) ability to mislead mankind.”

The above is just a thought, so don’t take it too serious!

Global Mind Unification

“In our obsession with antagonisms of the moment, we often forget how much unites all the members of humanity. Perhaps we need some outside, universal threat to make us realize this common bond. I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world.”
— President Ronald Reagan, in a speech made to the 42nd General Assembly of the United Nations (1987)

It’s possible that the only way to unify all mankind is to the encounter extra terrestrial intelligence, which is superior to our own. This would not only make us realize that we (mankind) are equal, but also that we do not have the right to dictate universal truths. My append to Ronald Reagan’s words are these:

“However, if you were an intelligent organism from another world, which just had discovered Earth, wouldn’t you just mark it with a big red “X” and tell others to keep out, as it’s yet too violent to visit?”

If we want to unite humanity we must realize that the dividing forces of mankind must reconsider the basic aims and views of life.

Chapter Conclusion

We, the humans as species, are amazing. We are capable of such tremendous understandings and yet incapable of applying it on our own minds. Maybe we shouldn’t analyze this subject to much, as the result may just be that we find out that there is no future for us. Maybe we aren’t ready yet. Maybe the history have to repeat itself a few times more until we have realized that we can not keep fooling ourselves if we want to proceed with life. We all know that the Emperors new clothes do not exist. We all know that he is naked! Then, why do we act as if they exist? Why do we constantly lie to ourselves? My answer to this is probably too simple to apply to the present level of general understanding, but I feel I must speak up as the little child did, when he realized that the Emperor as naked. This is my answer:

“Since the dawn of life itself, mankind has suffered from the basic feeling of not being safe. The feeling has evolved from being scared of dangerous animals – thru – not being able to feed family – to – not being of any use and thereby being suppressed from society. This feeling has made us all specialists on lying to ourselves, so that we do not constantly have to deal with the fear. As specialists we have developed tools such as the ones described in this chapter as well as them described in the next. We use them to convince ourselves and others about how right and great we are and how effective our tools have become. But, as we have developed them ourselves, they differ and the differences generate the conflicts that we find all over our globe.”

Understanding is us (mankind) per definition. Mankind is just a simple rock without it.

We know how to use it, how to enhance it, how to evolve it. But we do not know how to use it to understand it. When we die, it’s gone and will never come back.

One of my favorite parts of a movie is the ending quarter of the movie “A.I.”, by Kubrick and Spielberg, were robots comes back to a future Earth, searching for their source. They, the robots, follow a trace of an ancient myth race (mankind) that had the extraordinary abilities we possess today, but without understanding their value or power – which eventually killed them (us). Now you wonder if I have an answer to this, an alternative plan to get mankind back on track again. Well, I think so. But, I don’t think you are ready to bring it in to mind yet as it would seem too simple. But that’s the nature of understanding and thats the reason why I wrote the terms in the prolog. The next chapter is about understanding, which I there refer to as “the Light”. It’s probably the darkest reading ever for you as there I will touch the fundaments of our existence. But keep up a positive spirit, as you now know that the path to happiness is simple, yet to simple to understand.
