I already know that concept, though not by that name. It’s not unfamiliar to me at all. The left-wing evangelical Christian theologian Walter Wink has constructed his ‘Powers Theology’ around the concept of ‘institutitional spirits’. The ’spiritual mapping’ evangelical submovement (C. Peter Wagner et al) also plays with the concept, though I’m more dubious of their politics. It’s based on the cosmology that distinct spiritual and physical planes both exist but are interwoven or interpermeate each other, rather than being separated - which seems to be an occult idea with a fairly ancient pedigree.

I associate the concept also with the idea of ‘group mind’, with the mathematical notion of ’self-similarity at all scales’ from fractal geometry, and with self-organising business theories such as ‘chaordic commons’ and ‘open space technology’ (also the Internet’s ‘end to end principle’ and the core ideas behind democracy itself, including the notions of both ‘class consciousness’ and the ‘nation state’ which otherwise don’t make a lot of sense - certainly Libertarian and Objectivist thought take as an axiom that group consciousness, including all forms of altruistic human relationships, simply doesn’t exist, but that makes them quite strange, as most other political theories seem to have that as a base element that’s not really spoken about because it’s so fundamental.)

Sounds like an interesting read, I’ll check it out.

Fortunately, though, it’s almost always a minor manipulation…I see no ‘global conspiracies’ in these.

Well, I tend not to believe in the monolithic Illuminati-type conspiracy theory. However, I do believe that there is an ideology that drives much of the very destructive (in fact globally destructive) behavior we see. The effect is far from minor.

Right now I’m reading Welcome to the Machine (sort of Michel-Foucault-lite, or a more theoretical Ran Prieur), which I think sums up this idea very well. In a nutshell, for the last 3000 to 5000 years our culture (but especially the last 1000), our way of being has embodied, by way of metaphor, the panopticon. The panopticon is the ultimate prison, and our way of life increasingly serves archonic forces. The corporation is one of the principle actors at the center of the panopticon, where the archonic forces live. Anyway, very interesting book, I’d love to discuss with others who have read it.

Right?

I mean, right?

Completely out in the open.

Right?

Arco: bow, as in rainbow (”arco iris” in Spanish). Rainbow is the symbol given to humankind after the Flood, a symbol of God’s promise never again to destroy the world. God, a.k.a. Ialdaboath, great Archon and liar, who has since demonstrated a willingness to destroy the earth in fire (nuclear war?), floods (hurricanes caused by global warming), etc.

How’s that?

For the last several years I have come to the opinion that the corporation represents, in fact, the body of an egregore (often a malevolent one). When you talk about egregores, sigils can’t be far behind, and therefore one can think of a corporate logo as being the sigil corresponding to the egregore entity.

Let’s see if there’s something sinister in that. Hmmm, well, the Devil has been known to play the fiddle!

Also, when he gets down the phoneme level he loses me entirely. He has a whole list of consonant-vowel pairs and consonant-consonant pairs that have occult or sacred meaning. There goes about a third of the English language.

Another person writes:

Your work is the most accurate I have come across in many years.

More than nitpicking about factual elements though, the thing that really gets me about his video is that he throws out all these supposed symbolic elements, but never explains what they mean. We’re presented with images of checkered floors and so on, but never told what their significance is because of “time constraints” in the video. It becomes kind of like an endless parade of quasi-factoids without ever giving a whole lot of context for any of it and that’s for me where it *really* falls apart.

(Apparently he is linked with the Seattle Metaphysical Library as well, so I’m sure this will get back to me in one form or another. Oh well. I think it’s important that we challenge each other and engage each other in meaningful conversations about what truth really is)
