The Totalitarianism of Painfulness
1 Critical analysis is required here
for the world of a conquering madness
as painful as it appears
brings one to attention
that life is a most delightful gift
if only one can bear
that responsibility to care about it.
1
Life thereby means
irresponsibility sheds no worth at all on the case at hand
if one is given to supply oneself as fodder to that of government to supply our wants, desire and demands –
no, you then become a drone-like robotic outcome
of another’s self indulgent, self serving plan –

Refugees
1
To deeply sympathise (love) requires personal experience.
1
In a first world country:
What sort of agency are we, the individual, if we come from the Anglo Saxon Euro-Centric tribe with its recent (last 300 odd years) spiritual history, typified by the Aryan bird of prey?
A history of inflicting chaos and plunder, generating refugees of the others from afar – leaves a biological inheritance of exceptionalism and with it extreme callousness.
UNTIL NOW
The experience of being a refugee of sorts is upon us.
The experience I am thinking of is the exclusion or expulsion from the tribe.

Cultural war has been bubbling away since the First World War, but at a level such that it could be dismissed by the wilfully ignorant, until now – (the satanic energies afoot in the Western aligned world have exposed themselves sufficiently to be impossible to deny, even for the psychologically collapsed) – and still remain fully human.
Chaos and plunder of human values by beasts in human form, heading towards a totalitarianism of the masses, is not hard to see, given the World’s experience of the two great attempts last century.
1
The archetypal forces at play mirror somewhat those active in the great Western Christian tradition. With churches heavily weighted to upper middle class boomer adherents, the current neo-liberal political economy only tends to look after them and the upper class. The old idea of class warfare is not far from the surface, resulting in cherry picking the “causes” that are promoted and the poor and discarded are not high on the list.

The End Game
1The Western World is in the end game of psychological chaos, engendered by philosophical scientific materialism.
The viciousness displayed by the high priests and priestesses of materialistic cyborg-ism and particularly in relation to children, has graphically highlighted the depraved animal level of consciousness that they have sunk to.
The most shocking realisation of all, is that these beasts are not exceptional at all, but of the lowest ordinariness imaginable.

Murderous slaughter fills the comprador media air waves and scribbled pages, with the stench of death.

In the Blink of an Eye
1I sit here in the early hours, not far past the other side of midnight, wondering about a man’s, a woman’s good name.
1
Good name. What the hell does that mean in a time of societal collapsing?
1
You could do a bit of hermeneutical musing, but would that produce any Truth or just loads of relative truths produced by all other “theologians”?
Some how, good name seems to be associated with one’s spirituality, or being. Now a person’s state of being is quite a bit easier to observe because behaviour is one good marker. Behaviour is multi faceted of course.
1
The great religious wisdom traditions of the World have a lot to say about Being which can be of great assistance when trying to work out for oneself – the forming story of what sort of person do I want to become and what sort of road do I need to tread to help me get there.
Another one of the great questions of life that every person has to answer during the adolescent years, leading to the change to adult wholeness along the way to one’s death, hopefully after a well lived life.
1
One cannot miss being caught in the tragedy of death, celebrated in ceremonies of farewell to the departed, but swelling that tragedy if shame is also a legacy carried away by the mourners.
Shame that people, but especially family members have to carry and try to atone for in some way, or live with societal disapproval – for how many generations?
1
During this current period of slide into totalitarian ideological fanaticism, (which turns out to be a secular form of spiritual madness) much evil is being generated and it seems, the horsemen of tragedy are destined to gallop that path for many years to come; and many names will be lost.
Presumably the Song of Names will have many more stanzas and require many more singers.
1
Hopefully one does not fall prey to losing one’s name.

For the Christian pew sitter, a suggestion might be to look at the spirituality of the Galilean Peasant you follow. – ‘Jesus before Christianity’ by Albert Nolan might be helpful.
For the non-religious, a recent book by Mattias Desmet “The Psychology of Totalitarianism” is worth the time to read.
