btw: Have you ever looked at the cover art on Michael Jackson’s “Dangerous” album? I can’t remember if it was you or some other site that pointed it out… check out the symbols.

Lately you’ve been doing some good research. Gotta give props, even if I don’t always agree.

“Nasrudin went galloping through Baghdad one day on his donkey. He went up every street and into every alley and across every plaza—galloping every place he’d go, an unending race, a hunt, a search. Everybody got curious, everybody came out of their houses and they’re all yelling ‘Nasrudin! Nasrudin! What are you looking for?’ He yelled ‘I lost my donkey and I’m looking for it.’

See, the donkey represents what everybody is looking for, which is a mystical school, it’s the answer to all the riddles of the universe. And you hunt for it east, west, north, south, up, down, everywhere you can imagine. All the time it’s carrying you around: it’s the human nervous system which takes out of the infinity of the universe the little reality-tunnel that you consider reality, which is your creation and which you think is the whole of the universe…

…Unless you’ve been through a Sufi school or studied General Semantics or did a lot of Zen meditation or dropped LSD once or twice. Then you realize the universe is much bigger and more complicated than any little map we can make of it. The map is not the territory (the words that describe the map are not the territory, they’re even further from the territory).

What I’ve been doing is try to put the donkey on your back in such a way you’ll never forget the master, the great magician who makes the grass green, the one who creates the whole universe you live in.”

Again, enjoy!

After leaving university and feeling jipped from the whole experience, I went down the rabbit hole.

After studying this stuff with my brain capacity to absorb and study insane amounts of information I have come to the same conclusion as you have.

Is some of this stuff true?

Sure…

Is some of it totally out of whack?

Of course…

Should everybody jump into this stuff?

Not unless your emmotionally and spiritually balanced. In essence, what conspiracy theorising is, is deconstructing the macro world, but at the same time reflecting your micro self.

In the end my research has brought me to the conclusion that this is the same rabbit-hole that mystics and the intelligence communities live in daily. It is not abosulte reality, but never the less the one these people live in.

The search for the alchemical holy grail as they say.

After a while you have to pull back from all of it and come back to reality. Some retired spies mention that their whole career was lived in an alternate reality…or a fantasy.

In the end, it makes us more enlightened. But what is the use of this enlightenment if you are going to become a survivalist trapped in your own prision?

If anything, this sort of thinking is a personal form of de-programming which allows one to realise the absurdity of consumer culture and the paradigms in life.

In the end though, you still have to smell the roses and come back to the world of mass-conciousness because they have the major vote on the absolute reality.

Not the other way around.
