Finish'd Joshua, movin thru Judges, the Good News are on the way... Will proceed at my own slow (going to allow no 'I' to call it lazy) pace. Anticipating encounters with Hiob and Isaiah and what not before I get there. Anticipate some surprises, too. First reading has taught me I better expect surprises. Sounds pretty normal but it's weird. "Anticipate some things not anticipated."
Things are getting clearer. There is no justice, it's a non-idea, something that appears an idea, and big garbage if one believes in it, for a person infected with such a non-idea could constantly expect this not-something to influence events on the level of general life; well, it does not, and on finding about the terror of the situation one could then be driven to thigs harmful to development. (They are many, but they eventually sum up as FP, identification etc., things we are told, basically, to get rid of. And absence of justice is in itself enough to harm development, we couldn't really cope with added "internal weight") What there is, though, is some idea of some "constitutional rights", (well, at least in most civilized countries, I suppose, and in this case, if one could dig deep enough, at least sure to be found in traces in some constitutional root) and they are probably meant to serve to ensure what most everybody needs, else Work would be a fiction too. Sad but true, or name-it but true, this flesh body is needed. As an outer course of action, I do better enforce whatever "constitutional right" there may be but still more important is internal "no" to every attack at my personal integrity, whether it is lack of food or lack of 'respect', or some false accusations or some ungrounded demands. Or simply those loads of garbage that are mostly below logical thinking while trying to pass as something above it, as psychological thinking. (If that was psychological thinking there would be really alot of psychological thinking in this world, and quite enough truly intelligent people.) But still the most important part of the danger would be my own rigid opinionism and violence. (true, even if name-it...) In shorthand, I must not attack to not be attacked. (One begins doing by learning not to do certain things. To do "not do certaing things" begins mostly by not fostering certain trains of thought, replacing them, if possible, by more evolved types of thinking, "other themes" to speak practically.)
[These are just short notes and not meant to Work-educate ANYONE. But they can possibly be understood and profited from if, and only if, you already have the foundations under your belt. And foundation is at minimum to read this blog from the beginning and check out the references given and maybe even those only hinted at.]
What then is one to do with those blessings for "those who thirst after justice"?This, of course, is something different, it is one of the core elements of strictly practical teaching of Jesus. This is the REWARDS or pay or wages of the Work. In the Work, there IS justice. This was the point. All the time, it's just that I didn't get it until now. There is immediate getting under another influence, for example. It may not be noticeable but it is there. The idea of justice is that the Work brings its results without fail, just as in ordinary life justice so called limps on both feet without fail, as it could be said, though I'm more inclined to believe that it lies on the ground stone dead and barely opens its eyes once in a year without fail.
Other results may take time to show up. I don't believe there's one single man or angel or god that can quite predict them. It is possible (and personally I think it's perfectly true) that we don't have the necessary categories to think or discuss all kinds of results that are bound to come. But they are bound to come, and this is justice. It's just that our associations are so screwed up that immediately upon hearing "justice" we see the prison bars, attorneys, courts and judges. Even old Israelites were more civilized as we. They still had reason for joy because the Lord was full of justice and mercy and everything. Just reading the OT without transforming impressions would probably only emphasize the retributive side of it all.
The results come on condition that the Work is not done because of them, for this can lead to identifying with one's own efforts. Why then would one Work? The answer is clear, but only to those who are far enough to not ask such a question (this is not that far, by the way.) Here's a similar idea from Zen, a healing agent for you which will be effective if you don't think about a crocodile with a green-purplish hat, something like that. It's similar but it has little to do with this. However, like this it is also an insoluble paradox on the level of ordinary logical thinking, for this level.
Let the garbage 'do' what they have to 'do' (or 'think' they HAVE to do.) The very fact they don't know better than to waylay (wah-lah would do in this case) should tell you everything you possibly want to know. Let the junk grow together with the wheat, goes the practical doctrine. Later, the garbage will go their own way. Where and how they will end up is none of our concern. According to the 'justice' of the world, crime is best suited for high chairs and exquisite dishes, wherefrom to execute the ruling role of the obedient, fearfulful crowd. The folks divide, they impera. Both hate God which they don't know and both engage (with their neighbours) in useless-tasteless-stupid-harmful let-us-screw-each-other game. Neighbour is somebody they can reach, of course.
There is absolutely nothing that is monkish or that is 'religious' in following, I emphasize again, practical, useful advice of not going the way of the world in many, many respects.
Turn your mind to the Work now. You cannot stay with your CroCo, no matter how naughty he is. Like, you are going to read two or three more pages with attention. (H__ Enlightened Majesty of W.H. is approaching conclusion OF THIS POST. Capitals, for it is understandable that this blog is a very negligible branch of HEMWH's Activities. No paper or internet pages are meant. ) Choose your domain and become active in it. There are good reasons for exposing every nuance ,of:)) the .self and the -- world in the Work while leaving the Work itself in a not very clearly described state. The Work is the Kingdom and it does not begin by offering the Young King/Queen a pattern slavishly to be followed . It is up to you to "write" the "pages", if you will. There are no rules of the common junk kind that exist only to be broken later in order to fuck up Young King/Princess to whom, if h__ really be at The Entrance, ugly tricks of the streets of Vatican avenues of Name-it have almost became a deadly trap already, name-it but true.
There are other reasons. Imagine, for example, how efficient emotional centre would be. While you ordinaily type 'A', emotional centre has already typed 30000 characters of messages to your friends. Accordingly, there is sufficient boost of productivity in the Kingdom to satisfy most demanding standards.
Q. Is it true that W.H. is not afraid of NOBODY? Not even of Scientologists??!
A. W.H.'s body has instincts like every body. Therefore, it must be said, the junk uses the body to instill fear. Take one example and cripple it before a multitude who will shake with fear to the rest of their lives, is the recipe of the junk. Possibly, provoke the example to actions before that that you specifically want to show to the public as particularly undesirable to the ruler. That is the way of the institution and organization and the state and the church, to impress people with the terrible power they have. Apart from from connected with the weakness of the body, W.H. hasn't yet found a single reason for fearing advanced, enlightened people, or, if you like, people of caliber, or people of quality. This is not a result of the Work but probably a result of series of encounters. There's a lot of junk to find at Scientologists, like everywhere else, and there's an ongoing question if the cargo has anything to do with the flag, like everywhere else. They have some holders of Diploma of Ethics, or how do they call it, who are certainly better sent to prison than be given a diploma, for such is a rewarding of what they actually they don't want to reward, says their flag. I DON'T KNOW much about the rest, but, in general I hold no evil feelings against them. For example, I really don't fear to tell the general truth that it is no Art to cripple a member. If this was Art there would be many Artists in this world. Various anthroposophists and scientologists and tons of like names are also in terribly criminal state regarding their knowledge of logic, mathematics, financial mathematics, busines mathematics, simply simple honesty, and of course, ethics. However, I also find these defects very easy to remedy with a little of good will and a minimum dose of simply simple humanity. I also find that a little of good will & common sense etc. finds its way into various 'ADVANCED' institutions with uncommon difficulty. I am also not afraid to tell that one simply simple human is far better than host of various 'thoroughly trained' militantly inclined would-be-slaying-machines types, who seem to even be proud of it. (I'm also inclined to believe that despite that such organizations statistically have greater density, greater amount of men of quality than ordinarily is the case. For, biblically-statistically, a man of quality is a rare animal, with an average frequency of occurence one in a thousand.) What is called 'civil state', however, is far more criminal than any of these institutions. Let us not forget that borrowing a book, say, from an antroposophic ar a scientologic library, does not present a problem. Even if a book is lost, rare, valuable book, lent to you by theosophists, the issue will not be made into a problem. But some state libraries have entered criminal frame of mind as it is evident that they believe they may and must block access to books they are instituted to provide access to. To a chosen individual, me, of course, and they evidently believe that higher influence can suggest something like that. This same influence has also created computers and authorized the library staff to fully abuse them against chosen members (other people, and lo, me as well, which is how I know about it). Like our enlightened friend and advisor Mullah Nassr Eddin would say: "Yeah, totally and absolutely indubitaly sure." "Yes, my ass," he would turn to his mule, who would look back at him with sort of intelligent look and nod slightly. This was one of Mullah Nassr Eddin most powerful practices. He would talk to his mule as if it was a man. The results were that he grew a 'soul' within the animal. Animal was as if endowed with every subtle stirring of spirit that those who think that they know generally attribute only to human form. That it could neither speak nor respond in some other usual way was alone prevented by what I find no other way to refer to than to call it 'organic reasons'.
So I really don't understand your question. We are faced with the disaster of all disasters, Bush's medieval 'America', most terrible snowball rolling at us from the past, and Europe quickly becoming just like it. I don't know if it is more terrible that it means ultimate RULE OF THE MILITARY or that majority doesn't see, or doesn't want to see that. I know, most terrible is that you come at me asking me something about some stupid things. You don't know what chaotic conditions mean for possible instance of existence of real 'school', obviously.
Q. Did W.H. manufacture the big Q.-questions all by himself?
A. I'll keep it a secret whether it is him- or herself. For the rest, I can say, yes, of course. It is partly because this blog was not DESIGNED to remain one upmanship fostering institution, but has to this moment remained such as it is. I talk to myself and anticipate what questions could appear.
Q. Are things going to change for the better?
A. Possibly, despite appearances. I was aware of it before, but didn't want to publish it, for it could easy be something entirely false and shallow. Things are really going to get better. But only on the level where justice makes sense. And only when the ball rolls long enough to get big. However, there's more, for every genuine Work brings blessings for the world too. My personal line has always been directed at undermining machine authority, and when it rolls sufficently far the last little common sense will have unprecedented authority over state machines and bureaocratix cattle (I admit I cannot spell the word) and highly nobilissimus police-like 'trained' dogs. JAG won't sell anymore, TV companies won't buy it. (But this is on personal line, of course.) More important is that MEN shall have authority OVER computers, over MACHINES, if you like. A problem that Asimov was apparently able to see. A good future at the worldly level is in store for us, we'll have to work it out though, it will not just come by itself. Snowball is going to become avalanche, it will harvest (v.), biblically speaking. This is funny! Gee, I feel like a prophet! THINGS ARE GOING TO SORT ITSELF OUT. HE that shall not suffer your lack of respect hath spoken. However, the speaking machine, H__ Kind Reverence W.H., thereby grants you privileges to calumniate H__ Enlightened Person W.H. and make fun of as much as you please, one little, one a little more, according to the measure of your stupidity.
