I received a very thoughtful and compelling set of questions from John, a Reader, who commented on my previous blog about recognizing Evil: “No Sunglasses.” I want to answer some of his questions today, if I can. Settle in, this one’s a bit wordy. ^_^
I’ll start with his comment that I have, as he put it, a “well-warranted distaste for Christianity.” I must object to the tendency to dismiss all nuance and reduce the rainbow into a black and white snapshot. It’s easy to go there, so I want to take the responsibility for clarity of what I say— it’s on ME to be concise, clear, and unambiguous. It is understandable, and yet perilous, to be in such a hurry as to, for the sake of conversation, to attempt to catalog our thoughts from a sort of spicy gumbo of various ideas and feelings into a bland melange resembling cream of wheat.
The Divine, or the Spiritual Realm, or That which Animates our Being— however we prefer to think of it, is not box-able… it is elusive, defies attempts to stuff it into mere words, something I recognized as a small child. Nobody really knows exactly what “it” is. It is ever-changing, and easily slips away when we have the arrogance to try and force it into a commodity… When I used to attend church, I remember being struck by the thought that gathering every Sunday morning can easily becomes a routine, is in some ways constructive, but in other ways defeats the purpose of the spontaneity of spiritual revelation, the adventure into the Unknown, even of say, taking a walk and paying attention to the Natural world in all its nuanced beauty…
That said, I DO have some distaste for Christianity, and I also have some commendations for it… I try not to toss the entire bath out the window without at least noticing the baby… Any religion (most of them) that has elements of kindness, social justice, compassion, and so forth, has at its core something salvageable. What I object to is taking the Spirit of the Divine (define it how you will) and attempt to box it, solidify it, define it “for all time, for everyone,” or to use it to oppress or coerce. In my view, no one person can absolutely explain the elusive “Divine” or “Spirit,” or whatever term gets us to the place where we have a sense of this elusive experience/knowledge/being, other than in an ambiguous way, such as “Love.” Being educated in seminary or whatever is fine, but it doesn’t make a person any wiser. It’s useless to try to name something that cannot be named. It’s hubris to believe one knows “what God wants” in any given situation. The point is to remind ourselves that it’s not a good idea, in the course of living, or for the sake of communication, to present complexity as a superficial simplicity... such as calling an ocean a “blanket of water,” and leaving out the depth. That is a disservice to Humanity and our relations with each other and to that unnameable Thing. So, thank you, John, for reminding me not to offer up opinions that are poorly defined.
When I talked about “identifying Evil,” I wasn’t talking not about naming the individuals responsible for Covid and the rest of the coming attacks (yes, I’m sure there is more to come), I’m talking about the exasperating and still-prevalent phenomenon of a vast amount of people, at least here in the USA, but I’m sure elsewhere as well, that are simply blind to the bigger picture behind all this fraudulent virus nonsense, ie, lockdowns and false testing and all the UN-healthy mandates and fear-mongering that has been the hallmark of “health and safety.” The irony is so very clear, once you have a handle on how UNhealthy and UNsafe these forced strategies actually are. FORCE is not the hallmark of the Divine, is it? No, it is not.
The situation we now inhabit is not coming out of a mistaken idea of how to handle an attack by Nature. It’s not coming from a well-meaning attempt to protect us from Nature. It’s coming from a Plan to Harm Us that is decades in the making: Deliberate, Intentional, and Well-Informed FRAUD meant to cause HARM, DEATH, and in the end, COMPLETE USURPATION OF HUMANITY, a plan to REMOVE Nature and create a FEAR of Nature, our Mother, if you will. Mother Earth, the Mother Essence, the Cosmic Feminine. I’m not talking about human bodies and sex and gender and all that stuff that is being muddled in our current narrative… I’m talking about the Divine Feminine, which we all have; the Yin, the other side of the Yin/Yang, the Yang being the Divine Masculine, which we all have as well. Our tiny little minds need enlightenment in these things, but not by force.
The EVIL I want to “name” could be called The Reality of the Current Situation. We are under attack. By Evil. I want us all to recognize the concept of PURE EVIL, of the Darkness that is Absolute. It gets “named,” in a kind of anthropomorphic way, in terms like “the Devil,” or “Satan.” This is far, far, far bigger than all the individually evil people running around on the planet. It is THE EVIL, as in, the opposite of GOOD. To use the rather banal terminology we can all sort of understand: If Human Beings are “the children of God,” so to speak, then the Tools of Evil are the children of Satan. (I have a working theory that psychopaths are not fully Human.)
So, the point was, John, that if one doesn’t know they’re being slowly poisoned, they don’t feel compelled to focus on stopping it. They focus on what they DO know: job, children, the economy, fixing the car, walking the dog, trying to figure out why they are now dealing with serious health problems after getting the Jab…
The individuals we can name are the Carriers of this Evil… and they are very good at keeping themselves in the shadows, a lot of them. If we need to focus on individuals, and there are certainly times that we do, then consider Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab as examples. I couldn’t possibly name them all myself, because I don’t know who they all are. I have no problem naming them, once I do know who they are!
The overwhelming insanity of the idea behind all this makes it difficult for people to take it in. Well, it IS insane, and the people behind it are insane. Those of us trying to warn others need to realize that we sound like lunatics! Even so, some of us recognize, with all due horror, what is going on, and others do not. This, John, is what I’m talking about when I talk about “recognizing” Evil. If we are still thinking, “okay, they made some mistakes with lockdowns,” or, “they kind of messed up with some of the inoculations,” and so forth, then we’re not seeing the bigger picture.
The bigger picture is, this is a planned, thought-out, deliberate CULL and plan for who is left to be “hybridized” into techno-humans to become slaves to the people behind the curtain of a tyranny that can only be imagined. I feel strongly that it can never work, but that doesn’t mean all hell isn’t breaking loose in the attempt.
THIS is the EVIL. A heartless, soulless, pathological PLAN to destroy Humanity. The perpetrators of this plan are minions of the Evil. The Evil itself, and I’m calling it an “it” because I don’t know its true substance, only its activity, is bigger than Humanity or a group of psychopaths. This is what I mean when I talk about Evil, capitalized. Not the simple little nastiness of cheating, lying, beating your wife, etc. I’m talking about undiluted, pure evil without a fragment of Light in it whatsoever. And that is what we face, in my opinion.
What else could inspire the slaughter of millions, or billions, of humans, even children? What else could inspire the plan to starve millions of people in order to break down society? What else could inspire a plan to “break down society”!? What else could inspire a deliberate plan to cause the suffering and death of so many?
I can name a few of these people that are “the Devil’s consorts,” as it were, and they should be named, and called out, and arrested, stripped of their vast wealth, and imprisoned forever, of course. What I was trying to do in the previous post was comment on how difficult it is for many folks to admit to themselves, I suppose, that we are in now what some might call The End Times… the Final Battle… the Last Stand… whatever fits your marquee, your tongue, your billboard… This is when we leave the paradigm we’ve lived in for thousands of years, and begin the Next Paradigm. I have no doubt that Good will win, but nothing is a given, is it? I don’t know. It can’t be the focus, at least for me. What happens before the ultimate victory is achieved is my concern. What I do know, or think I know, trust myself to know, trust my ability to read the writing on the wall to know, is that we all face a choice of which side we’re going to be on, that the Ultimate Fuckery is Afoot, and the sooner we can truly face, and address that, the better.
In short, I’m trying to say what some other folks are saying… We can help each other by gently shoving the blind off the road… NO! Kidding! Sorry, I do have a very warped sense of humor, even in this day and age, and it’s usually absurdist… I do think compassion is essential, but we should talk, among those of us who do see the Big Picture, on strategies for enabling others’ vision, but at the same time, UNIFYING ourselves into WE, all the People, because I don’t relish the idea of anyone being left behind simply because they are too stubborn, or too proud, or too frightened, to get up and face the “music.”
I want to talk to others about just how to proceed and what to focus upon. I suggest a Free Press, lawsuits, and economic sovereignty on a community level.
And FOOD: It’s not just for breakfast anymore…
I am unable to use Stripe to allow you to donate in support of my work, but I am informed that I can post a link to my PayPal account, and you can support me that way, which would be Highly Appreciated. I also offer some short stories, some poetry, and I’m working on creating a PDF book of cartoons of my own creation… Inquiries are welcome, and here is a link to my PayPal account: PayPal.me.com/JaanCarter and choose “Gift.” Note: It’s not a LINK, just copy/paste! I’ll get it sorted out soon… It’s been a busy morning!
What keeps coming into my focus, and this is not something I usually voice as I feel it will be upsetting or offensive... if as humans we are so focused on our human state that we will do anything to run from death, I think we then cause much damage.
I don't like to name what I believe as it is a feeling more than a belief and words can be tyrannical. Separating us from each other.
When I die I would like my spirit to be liberated from the consciousness of being human. I don't want certainty, it feels deeply wrong to me.
I don't feel I need to be saved, as is spoken to in many religions.
This fear of death and conviction that we as humans are sinful gets us into so much trouble.
I believe we are arrogant in holding onto the idea of who we are now. Or that we must avoid death at all cost, even if it means loosing all agency and the beauty that is us.
If we could see ourselves as fleeting and beautiful and that death is simply part of this, so much would shift.
I seem to be surrounded by folks who have strong held religious beliefs. Beautiful folks, including a beautiful Amish community. I ask questions, very direct questions from a gentle place. And I find there is such certainty and separation from others and arrogance as well. Not spoken in an arrogant way, not at all.
There is talk, right now, of being saved by God or Jesus. And I wonder if people notice that person standing next to them, in this moment, is indeed who Jesus was. Love and light and healing and care for humanity.
We also get lost in our shadows (often internalized messages of shame) and do so much harm to others in not being able to face them or even see them, not integrated or able to stand in integrity.
(Wow, I just got introduced to mud season in Maine, 3rd Winter first mud season... terrifying!!!)
I don't like the word evil, but I do see people doing very damaging destructive things.
(I hope this makes some sense. I am rather scattered.)
Enjoyed reading your thoughts and observations. I know that sounds like a bland compliment, but not meant as. Curiosity, observation, and reflection (not necessarily in that order!) is what I am currently enjoying, learning and expanding from people sharing their own thoughts & observations - so thank you for your contribution to that. Cheers!
