May 28, 2020 - Words in The Legal Language -
"...We are speaking not of the origin or common meaning of words, but of their artful, legal meaning. These are two opposing things. It matters not the authority of the actual word, though it is important to know the current and older interpretations. Granted. But the important aspect of the legal language, that of legal dictionaries, is that those words belong to the legal realm, not the Natural or spiritual realm. In other words, and this is key, it is not up to you or me to decide upon the meaning of these terms of art. These are proprietary words defined specifically by another. So whatever way we interpret these words means exactly shit. Our judge is an attorney in a black robe, not our self or God. The judge, that agent of our principal corporation, is the god of words. you may pray and even appeal to that authority, but you may never create it. We are subject to their definitions whatever they may be. And yes, they may change daily to suit the needs of the district (Caesar). This is well admitted by many 'justices.'
This is why the most important word in law is the word name. Name means noun. And the word name in the Bible is 'shem' as the tribe of Shem, the tribe of the name. The bloodlines. It is they who control the words of their own creation, which we subscribe to in their person (legal status). All law is attached to that name, as certified at birth. Every invocation of that name, be it benefits, licenses, or other uses confirms the law of the name, which is of their proprietary language.
Interestingly, the word 'thesaurus' actually means legally the 'treasury.' This is because money is worthless without words. Numbers are worthless without the names (words) of things that money’s value is placed upon. Words are the real treasure of any tyrant. Without names (words), there is no under-standing of law. Words are a curse, written in cursive, but only when worshiped as higher than that which they represent. Names, flattering titles, identifications, persons, places, and things. All things are named. All things are of the thesaurus (treasure). All word-treasure is patented and proprietary to their creator (government). Thus all things are letters patent by their name (noun).
'The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use them.' ―Philip K. Dick
When you leave this system and stop supporting its crimes and terms of art in its person (status) then you can come back here and tell me what your words mean. Until then, like I have done, you better admit your own defeat. You better realize your own illiteracy, not because you don’t know the common language but in fact because you do know it. Speaking the common tongue in the jurisdiction of the legal language is akin to insanity, which is how they view us, as non compos mentis (not of right mind), which is to say not of right language. Not of comprehension but only of under-standing. If you use the person of another in surety, then you are bound by their interpretations of words, and by extension the law made up by their words.
Love your enemies… but not their designs. Hate their words and their artifice, but love their True Nature. The word 'love' means 'believe,' that is, the word 'lief' or 'lieve' is defined as 'love.' And so our enemy is not merely words, but the authority of words over the Reality they represent."[67]

March 29. 2020 - Got Beyond "Hallelujah"? -
Hallelujah By: Leonard Cohen -
Now, I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah…

March 27, 2020 - True American Law Includes Proper English Grammar - Or - It Is Something Most Foreign! -
About PARSE Syntax, AGAIN By: Anna Von Reitz -
Debts have been "forgiven" because they were all fraudulent in the first place.
If you haven't been following along with me, you should go back and review the Great Fraud.
Mortgages, income taxes, property taxes, property titles held by State of State and County "of" governments, franchise taxes, etc., have been illegally imposed upon people who not only didn't owe any such obligations, but who were in fact the owners of all the assets --- the landlords.
The whole system proposed by David-Wynn:Miller is based on flawed principles ---- it is not, for example, mathematically reliable or as he used to say, "correct". We do have to pay more attention to grammar, but by that, we mean English Grammar. English is our Official Language, not PARSE.
Finally, if you research the use of "Anglicized Latin" --- which is what PARSE Syntax is --- you will find that it has been used since the reign of the Roman Emperor Justinian as "DOG LATIN" [also called "American Sign Language" by the felons who used it against us"] ---- a form of language fraud used to defraud and bring false claims against the ignorant.
This language fraud results in a "fraudulent conveyance" --- the impersonation of living people as corporations --- and is specifically called a "fictitious conveyance of language" which is forbidden under Territorial Federal Code in the international jurisdiction of the sea where it most often occurs.
There is a huge body of knowledge about the use and misuse of both Latin and English now available, including a tremendous expose of the Justinian Deception by Romley Stewart. Just look up his YouTubes and you will find out why Mark Christopher, like David-Wynn:Miller before him, is not able to gain any traction with his methods and ideas.
Those who are interested in supporting this major work by our Australian counterparts -- private researchers who have sacrificed years of hard work and taken supreme risks to stop institutionalized crime --- can obtain copies of the series of papers and videos and exposes about the Justinian Deception for $340.00 payment to wallace.entertainment.new@gmail.com on PayPal.
This is the final word on the Justinian Deception and its modern day counterparts --- PARSE SYNTAX and "American Sign Language" --- and you don't have to take my word for it. All you have to do is view and listen to Romley Stewart's research and listen to his videos.
You will readily recognize the scam going forward, whenever it is presented and however it is presented.
Hopefully, you will also recognize that this fictitious conveyance of language is part of the larger fraud involved in False Registrations and mis-characterization and impersonation of people as "persons".[65]

February 28, 2020 - Creation! -
"... The fabric of the universe is vibration, and words carry with them the frequency of intention.
...
The sound is enough to change the world. The sound is enough to initiate the Atlanteans engines. The sound can destroy walls, glass and crystal, but the sound can also build, structure, profoundly alter the structure of the living.
It’s time to remember the first words of the gospel of St John: 'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God.’ Then the Word made flesh. That is, the intelligible sound modulated by Humans is the cause of all that is, was and will be. ..."[64]

February 15, 2020 - Transcribing "The Word" -
"... DNA contains our genetic codes and is the master blueprint for our biology. It literally creates us through a protein-assembly process known as “transcription.”
To transcribe is to copy in writing, to produce in written form, or to arrange music for a different instrument. In other words, we come into being, at our molecular level, through a process with striking affinities to 'composition.'
It is extremely interesting to consider the privileged place of song, storytelling and words in creation myths. Anyone who has undertaken a comparative study of religions probably has been struck by the universal role of sound and language in such myths.
Genesis 1:3 relates, 'And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.' In the New Testament John states, 'In the beginning was the Word,' an idea paralleled in the Vedas where we read, 'In the beginning was Brahman with whom was the Word.'
The ancient Egyptians similarly believed that the god-men Thoth and Ra created life through language, just as the Popol Vuh from the Mayan tradition insists that the first humans were brought into existence by speech.
Consistent with this language-based cosmology, the healing tradition immortalized in Finland’s Bock Saga is based on memorization and utterance of sacred sounds.
This Saga, which Dr. Horowitz describes at length, is an elaboration of a time-honored oral technology employing sound and light based on a 'spiritual understanding of how to work with "nature orally”—or “naturally.”'
'Here, in ancient mythology,' writes Horowitz, 'is the relationship between genesis, genetics, and the spoken word. Also implied is the concept of wholistic health hinging on oral functions.'
Horowitz points out that neurophysiologists have determined that fully one-third of the sensory-motor cortex of the brain is devoted to the tongue, oral cavity, the lips, and speech. In other words, oral frequency emissions (i.e., bioacoustic tones) spoken, or sung, exert powerful control over life, vibrating genes that influence total well-being and even evolution of the species.
Since the start of the Human Genome Project, there has been a tendency even in mainstream science to regard DNA as the alphabet through which we are written into existence.
Another metaphor helpful in understanding genetic composition also derives from language. DNA’s alphabet is composed of four basic 'letters' (nucleobases) that combine to form sixty-four different 'words' (nucleotides) used to build a virtually limitless number of 'sentences' (genes).
Leigh and I realized that if we were to activate what we saw as an extraordinary latent potential in DNA, one perhaps capable of transforming both consciousness and physiology we intuited along with a growing number of researchers, we had to find or develop a way to access DNA without laboratories or test tubes.
But how do you activate DNA without physically manipulating it?
At this stage, we were fortunate to be given a copy of The Cosmic Serpent: DNA and the Origins of Knowledge, by French anthropologist Jeremy Narby.
Dr. Narby spent years studying the healing techniques of shamans (medicine men) in the Amazon. His riveting account was particularly helpful in developing the Regenetics Method.
In one telling passage, Narby writes that
DNA is not merely an informational molecule, but … also a form of text and therefore … is best understood by analytical ways of thinking commonly applied to other forms of text. For example, books.
This way of looking at DNA as a book made sense. Narby clearly says we can learn to read DNA. By implication, he suggests we can learn to write—or rewrite—the genetic code.
An alternative way to conceptualize what I am calling 'rewriting' is to imagine that DNA contains a subtext resembling a series of footnotes that can be scrolled up onscreen.
In this scenario, no rewriting or reprogramming is required. The program for our new and improved bioenergy blueprint already exists in what mainstream genetics has dismissed as 'junk' DNA.
Most geneticists have admitted they have little idea why over ninety percent of our DNA even exists. The majority of DNA appears to be nonsense. A lot of it is in the form of palindromes, puzzling sentences that read the same forward and backward...."[63]

February 8, 2020 - Honest Communication -
"... It's thinking about words and language. We tend to be incredibly blasé about this unique power of communication that we’re endowed with. But the moment you can truly take in the power here, what this really represents, how it touches everyone, is to understand how aware you have to be of what you say.
One of the great dilem-mas that we have is that so much of what is said is without truth.
It’s the dilemma the not-self, it’s the way in which the mind, when it’s controlling the life, never really communicates honestly; it can't afford to.
It’s at risk when it does that. It's trying to control things and manipulate things so it doesn't communicate honestly.
And it means that these forces, these models, these are the models that are influencing the coming generation, each generation. There is a lack of legitimate communication. And it means that every time you're opening up your mouth, the power that is there in you, 'The Alpha' in you or 'The Prodigal' in you or 'The Role Model' in you, that if it's not correct, that is something you're putting out that somebody else is taking in.
... Most people repeat things that are part of the homogenized, conceptualized process and they just repeat what they are trained to think and see. The beauty of the knowledge, the beauty of Human Design is that through Strategy and Authority you slowly begin this process of disengaging your personality from the delusion and dysfunction of trying to be in control of your life.
Your mind has no business being in control of your life. And it's only when you begin to disengaging in that way, it’s only then that the possibility of your conceptual power and the possibility of your Outer Authority can be expressed in a way that there is a new model that is established.
Something that is essential for all of us is to transform the level of communication.(i)
... what communication will be for children in the future who are raised according to their design and the way in which they will be able to express their Outer Authority to those around them, to their friends, to whomever.(ii)
For me it is really the opening up of the possibility of a new and very profound intimacy. The intimacy of being able to connect to somebody’s — I was going to say soul; the personality crystal is the eternal mechanism. That is, to be able to communicate passenger to passenger. This ultimately is what's possible for us which transforms the nature of our communication.
It’s time, because in fact the very nature of the world that we live in and it's homogenization has transformed these roles into dysfunction where there is only doubt and confusion and the potential of madness. So, as always, the journey begins with the first step and the first step is honoring your Inner Authority.(iii)
Only then can you challenge the mind.(iv)
Only then can you begin this process of finding the power in you to truly express a new model, a new model that is unique. It’s not even new; it's just unique. It's just you. ..."[62]

Comment:
(i) In the evolution of this Blog-writer's "Cheeta" vision he realizes that the future of Cheeta requires preparation in the now and this preparation is a transformational process that includes all aspects of our communications with one another.
(ii) The "High Ideal" of Cheeta is all "for children in the future who are raised according to their design."
(iii) Your "Inner Authority" is your body-based intelligence and since you incarnated in harmony with that intelligence 88 days before you were born you brought that intelligence into the world with you in your body although on an unconscious level - however - by knowing your Human Design you can bring the intelligence of your unconscious (inner authority) forward into your daily life and confidently let it guide you!
(iv) When you are able to "challenge the mind" you decondition yourself from all that has suppressed your unique individulaized genius which you probably had to agree to as a child in order to survive.

September 22, 2019 - Power That Imbues Words -
"... you can experiment the power of the Word. On some days, when you speak, you may have no effect on the people you speak to. But at other times, on the contrary, you will impress them with the very same words: your speech is alive and so they listen to you. It is alive because the words you say are imbued with the subtle matter of your aura; thanks to it they are stronger and this power enables them to reach people's soul and make it vibrate."[58]

September 16, 2019 - "To Read the Meaning of Life" - Beyond Words -
"...A lady once told me how, when sitting in a College Chapel at Oxford, looking at the windows designed by Burne Jones, she rather wondered at the admiration that she had heard expressed for them, when just at that moment the full rich tones of the organ pealed out, filling the place with harmony. Then all at once a new light seemed to shine from the windows, the harmony of colour melted into the harmony of sound, and somehow the colour and sound seemed one; a wonderful calm fell on all her senses; but her mind seemed to open out upon the other side of some hitherto impassable barrier, and all grew clear; she seemed to read the meaning of life, and of her own being. When she told me about it she was puzzled, and could find no words to express what she had felt. I pointed out to her that a great artist had worked long to produce those windows, another great artist had worked long to produce that music, and a great architect had worked long before that building became the shrine of Art; and yet it took all their joint work to produce the harmony necessary to express those ideas, for, if it could be done with words, then their work was useless. Words are so small and poor, for when a poet takes words, and makes with them a great poem that becomes a window for the soul to look through, is it the meaning of the words analyzed grammatically that will explain the effect of his poem ? Is it not the rhythm, the tone, the accent, the secret spell of number (that great lord of Nature) that all combine to put the lower man in harmony and at peace, so that the soul can hear the voice of the poet's soul, without words??"[57]
And: "This term (art) is used so freely and loosely, that it really serves as a beautiful example of the use of language to conceal the absence of thought."

"... Schopenhauer was certainly free, almost to a fault, from the weakness of national pride. His patriotism was limited to the German language, whose powerful beauties he appreciated so keenly that it maddened him to see it wielded in the clumsy grasp of ordinary writers."[59]
Schopenhauer writes; 'My works are a succession of essays, in which I am possessed with one idea I wish to determine for its own sake by writing it down. They are put together with cement, therefore they are not shallow and dull, like the works of people who sit down to write a book page by page, according to some preconceived plan.'[59]

"He knew he had genius, that he was no ordinary man, and he acknowledged it with his habitual sincerity of speech. He weighed his duties towards the world in the balance with the weight and the intensity of his natural gifts; and he came to the conclusion, that a man gifted with genius, by merely being and working, sacrifices himself for all mankind; therefore he is free from the obligation of sacrificing himself in particular to individuals."[59]

"A true magus knows how to emit light. Not only is he surrounded and protected by his aura, it also provides him with the material for his work. It is thanks to this subtle matter that he is able to create and manifest his power. He doesn’t even need to speak; he only has to send his thoughts out, and it is as if he were speaking. This inner speech, which is real, powerful and magical, is also called the Word. The Word is a thought that has not yet been translated into words but already has expression in the invisible in the form of shapes, colors and sounds. Stones, plants, animals and humans all understand this language, and the planets, the stars, the angels and the archangels also understand it. ..."[55]

During a Medicine Buddha activation that this writer received in 1990 he witnessed a writing of "some words in the space around" him that was part of the activation process.

Everyone should be careful what they say, because speech is a terrible weapon. At the level of actions, people are limited: it is not so easy to ruin someone, to destroy their career or to get rid of or annihilate their family. And, even if these things were possible, you would risk being arrested and convicted. But humans have speech, and they can hurl words on all sides without too much risk to themselves, and their words are like lit matches starting fires – in their family, in those around them, in their place of work, in society and sometimes even in the whole world. So many break-ups and tragedies are caused by a few spoken or written words, deliberately used at a time when the user knows they will produce the most damage! ...[54]

"The Master said, '... A superior man, in regard to what he does not know, shows a cautious reserve. When words are not correct, what is said is not truthful. And when what is said is not truthful, what must be done is impossible to do. When what must be done is impossible to do, rites and music cannot flourish. When rites and music cannot flourish, punishments will not be properly dispensed. When punishments are not properly dispensed, the people do not know how to move hand or foot. Therefore, a ruler considers it necessary that the words he speaks must be appropriate, and also that what he speaks can be carried out appropriately. What the superior man requires is just that in his words there be nothing incorrect.'”[53]

Comment:
"What the superior man requires" is to "be impeccable with his word." Was Don Miguel Ruiz aware of the Confucius Analects of 500 BC when he wrote "The Four Agreements"? In any case the above quote offers much to contemplate, especially if one realizes that people are governed by words.

Comment on the "Awareness of Our Word":
This is about consciousness (and it's about time ; ~ )! This writer's attitude has embraced this perspective for well-over a complete seven-year cycle (that is reportedly the amount of time required for "decondition") and yet it seems that absolute mastery of this consciousness is still forthcoming. The most recent challenge was in regards to the "Unspoken Word" of another that had "affects" on others although this writer doesn't know the criteria in this particular instance for assessing what affects were actually "harmful and toxic." In any case there has been some relief experienced by this writer after he inquired with "another" and got to hear all of their psycho-emotional states that they reported having been personally overwhelmed by. The "report" gave validation and substantiated the "affects" (that this writer experienced) as a direct result of the "Unspoken Word" of another. Once again "some relief" did result from the hearing of this report - however whether or not self-awareness of another regarding their sense of their unspoken word and its potential impact on others is unknown.
Awareness of one's impact on others is a prime gift of self-consciousness that can come through knowing and understanding one's Human Design. (Continuing July 24, 2019) It may be considered as a sense of potential karma. It appears to be a sense that needs to be cultivated. Even the five most conventionally recognized fundamental senses such as sight, hearing, taste, touch, smell can all be cultivated to finer degrees and that then can serve as bridges to higher senses.

Continuing Further on July 24, 2019 - The Words "Deserve" and "Honor" -
"... we ought to read history because it breaks down dividers between the disciplines of science, medicine, philosophy, art, and music, which is all part of the human story. History enables us to understand the interconnections. Understanding the 18th century, for example, depends on familiarity with its vocabulary, because their words often mean something different than they do today. In a letter that John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail, 'We can’t guarantee success in this war, but we can do something better. We can deserve it.' The word 'deserve' has such a different meaning today when all that matters is success, getting ahead, and rising to the top.
Adam’s letter indicates that while God controls the outcome of the war, the colonists can control how they behave. They can 'deserve' success. That line practically lifted me out of my chair when I first read it. Three weeks later I found the same word in George Washington’s correspondence. It occurred to me that they both were quoting somebody else. I pulled down Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations from the bookshelf and scanned entries from the 18th century. Bingo, I found it in Joseph Addison’s play, Cato. Adams, Washington, and others were quoting the language of the time, a kind of secular creed if you will. It is impossible to fathom their behavior without knowing why honor mattered so much that they put their lives and fortunes on the line for it. Those were not just words."[51]

May 4, 2019 - The Undefined Throat Center in the Human Design System -
This Blog-writer is inspired to post the following here in regards to "the spoken and unspoken word" and also in light of the fact that his daughter has an undefined throat center:
From the "Voices of the Throat" Series By: Human Design teacher: Evelyn Levenson -
"...the Throat Center brings forth great clarity when we understand what it means in our chart. (Maybe that’s why I’ve been enjoying the creation of this Voices of the Throat series so much!)
The Open or Undefined Throat Center (I use the terms interchangeably) occurs in a relatively small number of people … somewhere between an eighth and a quarter of the population, depending on what time in history you’re looking at.
In describing the Open Throat, we in the Human Design community often say things like…
you have a hard time feeling heard or even seen
you may feel invisible at times
you need to wait for the right timing to speak
you may fear that no one will ever ask you
you may feel pressure to speak, and even blurt things inappropriately.
All of that may be true but it’s certainly not the whole picture!
You are NOT weak, you’re not a wallflower, you’re not powerless, and you don’t lack the ability to be noticed or to have impact.
As an Open Throat person, you can:
speak for the room
have unlimited capacity to communicate
modulate your communication style to best be heard by your audience
be gifted with your voice (singer, speaker, mimic, etc.)
develop great wisdom about communicating and manifesting thoughts into actions, and
express the power of manifesting ideas into words and action.
My favorite example of an Open Throat is Oprah Winfrey.
No wallflower, she!
She’s perhaps the most well-known woman on the entire planet. So she has definitely been noticed, heard, and seen. She has power and impact. And she clearly speaks for her audience when she interviews authors and guests on her shows.
So, all you Open Throat folks out there… step into your power! You do need to wait for the right timing, then GO for it. You have pearls of wisdom to share. Don’t “cast your pearls before swine.” When the right people and circumstances show up, that’s your moment to step up and step in.
... please don’t hold back. The world needs your wisdom and your light."[49]

If we don't have the garment/"words" to express our deepest thoughts and feelings then we are naked in the garden/world. Then we may grasp for "fig leaves" to cover our nakedness.

When you are in thought, it is already as if you were speaking. Your inner words are real, powerful and magical and they are what we call the verb. The verb is thought that has not yet been translated physically into words, but it is already present in the form of shapes, colours and vibrations. When you speak inwardly with all your soul and heart, the plants, animals, birds and insects understand your language and you are also heard by the planets, the stars and the angels and archangels. Beings in the invisible world don’t speak using words of a particular language or another, but in colours, forms and melodies that emanate from them, and all of them immediately know how to interpret this language. One day, humans too will be able to communicate with each other thanks to their emanations alone, and they will understand one another, for the verb is the universal language.[41]

November 25, 2018 - "We do not know in what forgotten words and phrases Jesus spoke to His disciples."
Thus begins the first chapter of "The Greatest Word In The World" by: Catherine Aller (1957).
Catherine continues: He may have used Aramaic, the common speech of Palestine; He may have spoken in Greek at times. All that has come down to us in the New Testament is told, of course, in the Greek tongue. When he said, "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another," (John 13:35) the word translated love is the Greek Agape. Throughout the New Testament this is the word almost always used to signify the unique meaning of the love that Jesus brought into the world. It was an utterly New Thing; nothing like it had ever been taught before. Paul uses it. "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels and have not Agape I am become as sounding brass." (1 Corinthians 13:1). John makes it identical with God. "God is Agape." (1 John 4:8).
--
"This is a discussion of the two contrasting Greek words for love, agape and eros. It is an intelligent, scholarly approach. But it is readable and interesting for anyone who enjoys exploring the mysteries of the Bible. Mrs. Aller writes of divine love from personal experience."[38]

April 16, 2019 - Jon Rappoport - Journalist, Poet, Deep Thinker and "the Invention of Worlds" By Way of Words! -
"... Clarity emerges from the fog; it comes last. The writer finds out why he is doing what he does.
For me, it started with poetry/fiction. At age 11, I read Ray Bradbury’s book of short stories, Martian Chronicles. I was stunned by the poetic nature of the work.
At age 44, I began a career as a journalist. I discovered that facts (and how they connected) were fascinating. What began as a lark turned into full-blown dedication. In particular, little known medical truths and crimes attracted my interest.
Still, I felt that poetry/fiction was my deeper calling. Eventually, I saw that my tree had several basic branches. Journalism was one of them. I kept coming back to an exploration of propaganda, cover stories, and false realities.
Propaganda was the invention of worlds for profit, control, and domination. Poetry was the invention of worlds for joy and satisfaction of the untamed creative urge, which has no boundaries. In this civilization, children are trained to grow up contributing to the overall acceptance of deceptive narratives. The creative urge, which would lead to the revelation that Self is infinite, goes begging, and is viewed as an unnecessary risk and dead-end. In other words, everything is backwards.
What I, as a writer, was showing was: here are the details of stories which are sold to the many as truths, when they are actually crimes; and here are stories which are offered as pure inventions, and are liberating to the soul. Here is freedom; and here is slavery.
Over decades of work, I realized how deep the crimes went, and how high and unbounded the creative force could soar. Both branches of the tree were vital.[45]

Comment:
It was about 1988-89 when I first became introduced to the work of Jon Rappoport with the revelations he uncovered regarding "AIDS."[46] Recently I've seen some of his other "basic branches" in poetry/fiction and deeply inspired by these as they re-stimmulate my desire for co-creating a small community theatre where readings would be celebrated. Now I have all the more gratitude for my work (and especially the apparent adverse impact that had on me at the time) as a private-duty nurse-aid to a dying "AIDS" man. The nature of my work attracted me to learning what "AIDS" was and Jon's discoveries were a major revelation for me!

“... The ancients called life a Leela, a play. It’s a good translation of the word, because the word play means both a piece in theatre, a drama, and also playfulness; they’re both needed."[47]

Also: "... Though all of us are in the world, not all of us experience what takes places in the world as each one is absolutely guided to reap according to his way of life. The holy book points to this when it says that two women will be grinding in mill and one is in rapture and the other is left to experience her creation."[36]

I love multiple perspectives on "The Word"! If the word becomes flesh then there are billions of individual expressions of "the word".

January 29, 2019 - The Word in Creation -
Sound Creates! -
Creation stories from many ancient religions believe sound played an important role in the creation of the universe.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1 (A spoken word is a sound.)
Hindu tradition states in the Vedas: “In the beginning was Brahman with whom was the Word. And the Word is Brahman.”
Thot, an Egyptian God, was believed to have created the world with his voice.
According to Mayan tradition, in the Popul Vuh (the book on creation), humans are given life by the power of the Word.
In the Hopi Indian tradition, “Spider Woman” sings songs of creation to produce animated life.
The Satapatha Brahmana of the Hindu tradition reads: “In the beginning was God with power through speech. God said, ‘“May I be many... may I be propagated through subtle speech,’ he united himself with that speech and became pregnant.”
In Chinese Buddhism, the Divine Voice calls forth the illusive form of the universe.[43]

“… The true power of civilized women and men is the use of words to seek and speak the Truth in a world where our language has been corrupted. A world where Peace means War and Freedom means Slavery.
The ‘Swords’ of today are Words!
The skilled use of language encourages spirited debate in the free market of ideas. Violence erupts when communication between people breaks down.”[35]

July 11, 2018 - The Truth About News Reporting - Jon Rappoport Q & A with Ellis Medavoy:
(Jon) Q: ... where DO these newspeople come from?
A: They, at an early age, see power as the capacity to know “what’s going on.” They plug into that kind of power.
Q: It’s strange.
A: It’s superficial. It’s all about surface flow of information. They stick to the surface. What they’re looking at, what they’re fascinated by is a kind of theater. They’re looking at theater. I’ve known that for a long time. It was part of my job to know it, because then I could present stories that would get through to reporters in a form that would have that theatrical feel.
Q: The players know their roles.
A: The reporters know, their editors know, their reliable sources know, and people like me, who feed those reliable sources, are like directors. It’s hard to describe this, but there is a certain pulse and pace and feel to the way you should supply stories to sources or reporters or editors. You know when to go fast and when to go slow. You know how to plug into their sense of theater. Their need for theater.
Q: So the addiction of these newspeople has a theatrical dimension to it.
A: Have you ever seen a junkie operate? A great deal of his action and talk is theater. He presents theater and he wants theater back. The newsman confuses theater with facts. It’s all rolled up into a big space. I’ve sold stories to reporters based purely on the theatricality of my presentation. See, let me tell you something. When I talk to a reporter, I know I’m walking into a theater where the play is ALREADY underway. It never stops for a reporter. So I hit the ground running. I enter the scene mid-stream. I don’t think, “Now, I’m starting to pitch my lines, now the scene is beginning.” No. I’m intuiting and seeing where he [the reporter] is right now, in the middle of one of his scenes, so to speak, and I plug directly into that place, that moment. Do you understand? This is the subtlety of the art.
Q: You understand his psychology.
A: Yes, and I understand his flow. I read the signals. Oh, this is Death of a Salesman or Streetcar Named Desire, or Hamlet, and they just shoved me out on the stage, and I have to know how to match the emotions of the moment, where the scene has already been going on for five minutes. It sounds a little odd, but that’s how you play the game if you want to win. It could be a very quiet moment in the scene, and then I need to talk in a whisper. It could be the peak of the scene, where the emotions are running high, and I have to drive right in and be there for it, with my feelings turned on high, too.
Q: But behind that, you were doing something quite different.
A: Of course. I had my marching orders and my agenda.
Q: You know, it’s almost like you’re talking about frequencies.
A: I am. Propaganda runs on carrier waves. What are you using to transmit messages? What wave? I knew my targets: reporters and editors and their reliable sources. So I had to understand and tune into the frequencies they would accept. If you watch the best television news anchors, you see they’re adopting several tight emotional frequencies, and they use them to transmit, with their voices and demeanor, the news to the public. They use a nearly perfect imitation of several things: concern, objectivity, dignity, intelligence, with a bit of a rosy glow of sincerity and humanity. That’s the recipe.
Q: Imitation, you say.
A: Yes. They’re a cartoon. They create a cartoon persona. A very well crafted one. And the audience is a cartoon, too.
Q: Why is the audience a cartoon?
A: Because, underneath it all, they know they’re being conned. At some level, they realize it’s a show. So they pretend, and they do it well. They pretend they’re very involved.
Q: You can see that?
A: See it? I lived by it for many years. I staked my reputation on all of this, on everything I’m talking about here. It wasn’t just theory. I went into the trenches with my understanding, and I made it succeed.
Q: You’re talking about using your skills on people who report the news, who tell the public what’s going on.
A: As I just said, it’s all a cartoon. On both sides. Broadcasters and audience. You may not like it that I take a hard line on the audience, but too bad. The audience is faking it just as much as the newscasters. You have to admit there are levels to the mind.
Q: Meaning?
A: On one level, the audience appears to accept what the mainstream news is telling them. But on another level, as I’m saying for the third time, the audience knows it’s a fake. And why don’t they admit it? Why don’t they say, ‘I’m sitting here at night buying what I know is fake. I’m watching the screen and the anchor is giving me the news and I know it’s cooked.’ Why don’t people do that? Because they refuse to look at their own little drama of stimulation, in which they are titillated by what the newspeople are giving them. They don’t want that professionally produced titillation to go away. ...[30]

I essentially stopped watching the news as of 1970. I've never owned a TV. However the last time I watched the news was on and because of September 11, 2001. Dictionary.com has a definition for this date[31] and if I didn't have better things to do I'd write and ask them what they based their definition on; especially since "the audience knows it’s a fake." Nevertheless this is another one (of so many incalculable instances) of official "definitions" as a method used for deciding the nations.[32]

March 16, 2018 - Emerson - "Listen for the Right Word." -
"Ralph Waldo Emerson, the American transcendentalist, poet, essayist and reformer has been presented in many ways, but never simply and radically as a spiritual teacher-- a guide to the intimate processes in inner development and self-transformation. But Emerson was just that. In countless ways, including the example of his life, he showed that 'the holy and mysterious sources of life' were available to anyone, at any hour of the day, who can 'listen for the right word.'"[27]

"...McLuhan said that each medium can 'step up' one sense and step down another. This has huge consequences. Reading books stepped up sight and created a linear habit of mind that valued logic: You go down the page line by line, then turn to the next. This gave rise to a habit of thinking in terms of logical progression of argument. The logician asks of any statement in an argument or conversation, 'Does this follow?' But in the digital age, linearity is stepped down. We now ask, 'Does it grab you?' Because now information comes at us from many competing directions all at once. Our so-called 'great communicators' are those who can best distract us from all the other distractions. When you leave linearity and logic behind, life becomes a Twitter feed: a series of hyper-emotional non sequiturs. That's manifest in our deteriorating, increasingly ignorant public discourse. It's no accident that our education system - itself desperately FOMO[24] - is both computer-crazy and in favour of dropping history, a linear discipline par excellence. That is exactly the wrong move. What we need are schools that teach what screens can't do - to immunize students from the medium's faults. They should get back to teaching the most important books ever written."[25]

March 5, 2018 - Includes "Logos" -
"... If, as says Shakespeare of man, 'my mind to me a kingdom is,'[21] so the Father's brooding mind is the mental kingdom of the universe, that substrate of conscious purpose which permeates, in fact structuralizes, the whole animate creation, as its constituent urge and driving force. It is that energy of the Eternal Will which, as primary Cause, stamps its form and nature upon the movement of all conscious life, first manifesting as unconscious, or subconscious, directive toward the achievement of its ends, then becoming gradually more clearly conscious of its own purpose and effort, as creatural experience aligns developing mind with the Logos[22] of the cosmos."[20]

On "a roll" here with Jon Rappoport -
“It’s instructive to read what authors wrote about core values a hundred or two hundred years ago, because then you can appreciate what has happened to the culture of a nation. You can grasp the enormous influence of planned propaganda, which changes minds, builds new consensus, and exiles certain disruptive thinkers to the margins of society. You can see what has been painted over, with great intent, in order to promote tyranny that proclaims a greater good for all.” (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)
Two thoughts on the above. Firstly "to read what authors wrote" and all that follows is naturally dependent on "the word" which underscores the proverb: "The pen is mightier than the sword".[15]
Second thought - As a young art student I became somewhat "famous" for my densely-coated paintings. (I LOL now recalling how one of my paintings needed more support to carry it than I could give with just my two hands!) Fortunately I had gained some contrast to that years later as an art student at Rudolf Steiner College. The perspective I have as a fledging artist arises in reading: "You can see what has been painted over". When contemplating this line along with my acquired artistic sensibilities a new ray of insight opens within me (regarding what once moved through me in my former artistic expression and the attraction for the later one) plus a new appreciation arises for the lighter approaches in painting. There is much more that I can say about this particular contemplation that I feel deserves to be said in an artist community. This is part of my "Transformational Arts" vision that I have expressed as "Cheeta".[16]

January 27, 2018 - Network: the last great film about The News - by Jon Rappoport -
Network, the 1976 film written by Paddy Chayefsky, reveals what media kings would do if they unchained their basic instincts and galloped all the way into the madness of slash-and-burn Roman Circus.
The audience is jaded beyond recall. It needs new shocks to the system every day. The adrenaline must flow. The line between reporting the news and inventing it? Erase it. Celebrate the erasure. Watch ratings soar.
…
There is no longer even a pretense of a need for news anchors to appear authoritative, objective, or rational.
…
The individual and his thoughts are completely irrelevant.
…
The best film ever made about television’s war on the population, Network stages only a few minutes of on-air television.
The rest of the film is dialogue and monologue about television. Thus you could say that, in this case, word defeats image. Which was scriptwriter Paddy Chayefsky’s intent.
…
Television’s enemy is the word. Its currency is image.
(unhinged Network newsman, Howard) Beale breaks through the image and defiles it. He cracks the egg. He stops the picture-flow. He brings back the sound and rhythm of spoken poetry. That is his true transgression against the medium that employs him.
The modern matrix has everything to do with how knowledge is acquired.
Television, in the main, does not attempt to impart knowledge. It strives to give the viewer the impression that he knows something. There is a difference.
Knowledge, once established, is external to, and independent of, the viewer.[12] Whereas the impression of knowing is a feeling, a conviction, a belief the viewer holds, after he has watched moving images on a screen.
A basic premise of New Age thinking is: “everything is (connected to) everything.” This fits quite well with the experience of watching film or video flow.
Example: we see angry crowds on the street of a foreign city. Then young people on their cell phones sitting in an outdoor café. Then the marble lobby of a government building where men in suits are walking, standing in groups talking to each other. Then at night, rockets exploding in the sky. Then armored vehicles moving through a gate into the city. Then clouds of smoke on another street and people running, chased by police.
A flow of consecutive images. The sequence, obviously, has been assembled by a news editor, but most of the viewing audience isn’t aware of that. They’re watching the “interconnected” images and listening to a news anchor tell a story that colors (infects) every image.
Viewers thus believe they know something. Television has imparted that sensation to them.
Therefore: a short circuit occurs in the reasoning mind.
When you take this pattern out to a whole society, you are talking about a dominant method through which “knowledge” is gained.
“Did you see that fantastic video about the Iraq War? It showed that Saddam actually had bioweapons.”
“Really? How did they show that?”
“Well, I don’t exactly remember. But watch it. You’ll see.”
And that’s another feature of the modern acquisition of “knowledge”: amnesia about details.
The viewer can’t recall key features of what he saw. Or if he can, he can’t describe them, because he was in the flow. He was inside, busy building up his impression of knowing something.
Narrative-visual-television story strips out and discards conceptual analysis. And lines of reasoning? To the extent they exist, they’re wrapped around and inside the image and the narration.
Paddy Chayefsky made his pen a sword, because he was writing a movie about television, against television. He was pitting Word against Image as the primary form of knowledge.
When a technology (television) turns into a method of perception, reality is turned inside out. People watch TV through TV eyes.
Mind control is no longer something merely imposed from the outside. It is a matrix of a self-feeding, self-demanding loop.
Willing Devotees of the Image WANT images, food stamps of the programmed society.
The triumph of Network is that it makes its words win over pictures, IN a picture, IN a film.[13]

In contrast to the above:
"When Jesus said, ‘I am the light of the world’, he identified with light. He did not say that the light was in him, or with him, but that he was the light. There is an entire science in these words which we must meditate on and put into practice in every aspect of our inner life."[14]

February 23, 2018 - More "Network" -
"I’m mad as hell … and I’m not going to take it anymore!
From the movie 'Network,' 1976
Dear Friends, Cultural Creatives and Seekers Everywhere,
The above quote is the signature line from the 1976, four Oscar-winning film, Network. The storyline revolves around newscaster Howard Beale’s onscreen nervous breakdown; wherein he threatens to kill himself on air, and then launches into a series of on-screen lists of distressing societal woes. Rather than cutting him off-air, the failing network was ecstatic because his show was achieving astronomical ratings.
Beale’s diatribes exposed a dystopian media wherein opinion trumps fact ('fake news,' anyone?) and how television and the big corporations behind it were shaping people’s minds. Beale’s rant concludes that multinational corporations had become the only true contemporary government. Originally, the success of Network was that it tapped into the anger of the post-Nixon world, wherein the public was suspicious of all authority and stressed to their limits. The same issues are still here, but are bigger and more pronounced today than when the movie debuted in 1976. Network, defined as a 'classic,' is regarded by many as prophecy. ..."[17] - Bruce (Lipton)

Barbara Loe Fisher - the president of the non-profit National Vaccine Information Center - talks about the impact that the cancellation of net neutrality and public-private business partnerships between industry, government and politically powerful institutions has had on conversations about health and vaccination on the Internet.

Read the referenced commentary at https://www.nvic.org/NVIC-Vaccine-New....[40]

Story at-a-glance -
NewsGuard will rate online news brands based on nine criteria of credibility and transparency, ostensibly to help readers judge what is true in order to avoid fake news. It is currently focusing on U.S.-based media brands, but plans to expand online site reviews globally.
NewsGuard received much of its startup funds from Publicis Groupe, a global communications group whose history of clients includes the drug and tobacco industries.
NewsGuard, clearly influenced by Wall Street and indebted to big industries through its funding, is being positioned to eliminate competition, which will allow Big Industry to reign as the leading shaper of public opinion and government health policies.
Americans’ trust in the media is at an all-time low. According to a 2017 Survey on Trust, Media and Democracy by the Knight Foundation, 43 percent of Americans have a negative view of news media
Sixty-six percent believe “most news media do not do a good job of separating fact from opinion”.

October 18, 2017 -
A stream of consciousness arose during my most recent contemplation that I wish to at least note here (rather than write myself yet another paper note to add to a library of files ; ~ ).
There are many forms of the spoken word generally identified at large and also recognized in scripture. I wish to briefly and succinctly identify these many ways, i.e. to "declare", to "announce", to "prophesy", to "speak", to "say", to "express", to "communicate", to "tell", to "confess", to "call", to "pray", etc. If all variants of the many ways that the spoken word can be expressed were both identified and searched in the scriptures I imagine the results would show that (not surprisingly) the bible is absolutely saturated with the spoken word - albeit in printed form. However even though the word. /s in the scripture are found to be ink on paper they can be "breathed" into and thus transformed into the spoken word. Then there is the possibility that "the words that I speak are spirit and life"!
Both "Old" and "New" testaments ("old" is possibly another form of spoken word) underscore this with their beginning emphasis of the "Word of God" in Genesis with "God said" and in John 1 with "... the Word was made flesh ...".
Much more can and deserves to be said about "beginnings". There is also the "endings" to consider. The Biblical ending is known as "The Revelation". There we have an image of Christ with a sword[2] proceeding out of His mouth![1] Another quality is presented in the preceding verse with: "His voice was like the roar of many waters." I wonder about the full true nature of the "many waters".
All of the above can be elaborated upon as a cornerstone reference toward further expansion that includes the idea of "being impeccable with your word".

When spoken aloud, a formula releases currents that rise up through the heavenly hierarchies ..."[4]

Both "The Spoken and Unspoken Word" can be known in dialogue. I just came across my hard copy of "Guidlienes fro Open Dialogue" that motivated me to find the source online. I am glad I searched and found that! Following are the "Guidelines":
Guidelines for Open Dialogue -
The more all participants are aware of the nature of dialogue and committed to bringing it about, the better the chance it will happen. Towards that end, the following comparison of dialogue and debate offers one of the most useful summaries of dialogue that we've seen. ...
Even on first reading, it can change one's perspective. The specifics, however, can be hard to keep in mind. So the more often people read (and discuss) the list, the more effective it will be. ... you could write each one on a card and give every participant in a meeting one card to keep in mind, on behalf of the whole group.
Dialogue is collaborative: two or more sides work together toward common understanding. Debate is oppositional: two sides oppose each other and attempt to prove each other wrong.
In dialogue, finding common ground is the goal. In debate, winning is the goal.
In dialogue, one listens to the other side(s) in order to understand, find meaning, and find agreement. In debate, one listens to the other side in order to find flaws and to counter its arguments.
Dialogue enlarges and possibly changes a participant's point of view. Debate affirms a participant's own point of view.
Dialogue reveals assumptions for reevaluation. Debate defends assumptions as truth.
Dialogue causes introspection on one's own position. Debate causes critique of the other position.
Dialogue opens the possibility of reaching a better solution than any of the original solutions. Debate defends one's own positions as the best solution and excludes other solutions.
Dialogue creates an open-minded attitude: an openness to being wrong and an openness to change. Debate creates a closed-minded attitude, a determination to be right.
In dialogue, one submits one's best thinking, knowing that other people's reflections will help improve it rather than destroy it. In debate, one submits one's best thinking and defends it against challenge to show that it is right.
Dialogue calls for temporarily suspending one's beliefs. Debate calls for investing wholeheartedly in one's beliefs.
In dialogue, one searches for basic agreements. In debate, one searches for glaring differences.
In dialogue, one searches for strengths in the other positions. In debate, one searches for flaws and weaknesses in the other positions.
Dialogue involves a real concern for the other person and seeks to not alienate or offend. Debate involves a countering of the other position without focusing on feelings or relationship and often belittles or deprecates the other person.
Dialogue assumes that many people have pieces of the answer and that together they can put them into a workable solution. Debate assumes that there is a right answer and that someone has it.
Dialogue remains open-ended. Debate implies a conclusion.[5]

"There is a meaning which comes into effect as we talk and does not have to be 'thought-up' before we talk to guide us (having an agenda and chairperson, etc.). So, the meaning that is emerging as we talk can guide the way we talk.[6] This was the idea of David Bohm, who did so much to spread the way of dialogue. He said that the very word 'dialogue' means 'to go through meaning': dia - 'through' and logos - 'meaning'. Dialogue is then the 'way' of meaning, the Tao of the logos! It is an art and skill that allows the natural process to unfold. Just as people used to consider the nature of a forest or jungle as wild, untamed, irrational so do many people today regard the process of dialogue as anarchic, chaotic and unproductive."[7]
In contrast to dialogue an additional "form" of the spoken word: rant.

"The sacred books are the work of exceptional beings who, through prayer, meditation, and contemplation, succeeded in attaining the world of sublime truths. To understand these works, we must be able to vibrate on the same wavelength as these great beings. ... Do not worry about understanding the Bible or other sacred books right away, because they are often difficult to read. But at the same time, work on yourself; impose a discipline on your life which will bring you closer to the world of spirit. Jesus said to his disciples, ‘I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth.’ Without this contact with Spirit ... no understanding of the sacred books is possible."[10]
1970 was a pivotal year for me and in that year I was drawn to the Book of Revelation realizing that I did not have understanding of the symbolism. This realization planted a seed in me and some months later (possibly nine) I entered "The Church in Chicago" with an activated interest to understand the bible. Some time later the ministry gave an intensive study on the Book of Revelation. Now over forty years later I consider the intensive as an initial peeling of an outer "onion" skin. There are deeper layers that I am open to perceiving. In my "To Research"[11] page here at the "Son of Truth ..." I mention Robert Tulip who's paper on the work of Carl Jung deeply attracts my interest to perceive the "deeper layers". I've had a long standing interst in Carl Jung yet only recently realized his affinity with the archetypal nature of Christ and that has tweaked my interest all the more!
The key phase here is "contact with Spirit". John 6:63 "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life." The way "The Church" approached the scriptures was by pray-reading the Word.

Cindi Silva speaks of the word[19] as just a container for frequencies and not the frequencies themselves (and that also includes the concepts that words represent). She refers to the Buddha: “My teaching is a raft whereon men may reach the far shore. The sad fact is that so many mistake the raft for the shore”.
"In Buddhism there is a wonderful word known as ‘dharma’. It is one of those words pregnant with many dimensions of meaning. It points towards the existence of a higher truth or universal law pervading the universe. Because the realisation of the dharma is beyond words, its transmission can only be received through silence and deep meditative absorption. The Gene Keys are just such a transmission. As archetypes they each contain a fractal aspect of the same universal Truth. As genetic archetypes they allow you to resonate (with) that Truth deep within each cell of your body.
This brings us to a very important point that you must know before you enter the living dharma-field of the Gene Keys. Because the Gene Keys are a transmission beyond words, they will not yield their secrets to an intellectual, grasping mind. The more you chase after them with your mind the more frustrated you may become. As archetypes, the Gene Keys are designed to be contemplated, and contemplation demands relaxation and patience. Contemplation is one of the greatest and least understood of the ancient mystical arts and paths. ..."[18]

"Thank you Jon. I can’t put into words like you and others have done so eloquently here but I needed to read something like this today. Words can make a positive difference."[29]

October 21, 2018 - Words Make A Difference, One Way or Another -
I certainly agree with what "Aron" said (in the above quote) and it also needs to be said that words can also make a very negative difference. A doctor can deliver a verbal diagnosis and prognosis that cause a shock in the patient of "death fright" proportions and that "word" planted in the patient's psyche can literally kill them!

[21] Not actually Shakespeare according to the following:
“My Mind To Me A Kingdom Is, a song in praise of contentment and humbleness, composed by 'E. Dier':, seems to have been a favorite poem in the sixteenth century, It is in Percy’s Reliques and in Arber’s Anthologies. There is some slight reason to suppose that Shakespeare had it in view in 3. Henry VI., Act III, I, 59f.: -
Sec. Keeper: … thou talk’st as if thou were a king.
K. Henry: Why, so I am, in mind; and that’s enough.
Sec. Keep. But, if thou be a king, where is thy crown?
K. Hen. My crown is in my heart, not on my head; … my crown is called content.”:
In "Shakespeare's books: a dissertation on Shakespeare's reading and ..., Volume 1" - By Henry R. D. Anders.
[22] Logos - "(Ancient Greek: λόγος, from λέγω lego 'I say') is a term in western philosophy, psychology, rhetoric, and religion derived from a Greek word meaning 'ground', ... 'word', 'speech', 'account', ... Ancient Greek philosophers used the term in different ways. ...The Stoic philosophers identified the term with the divine animating principle pervading the Universe. .... The Gospel of John identifies the Logos, through which all things are made, as divine (theos), and further identifies Jesus Christ as the incarnate Logos. The term is also used in Sufism, and the analytical psychology of Carl Jung.
Despite the conventional translation as 'word', it is not used for a word in the grammatical sense; instead, the term lexis (λέξις) was used. However, both logos and lexis derive from the same verb legō (λέγω), meaning 'count, tell, say, speak'...."
