Chapter Catastrophic Thinking
Why This Type Of Thinking Is Catastrophically Mistaken:
In the 1953 apocalyptic science fiction novel by John Wyndham, ‘the Kraken Wakes,’ although some Japanese scientists discover that a kind of ultrasonic weapon can kill the aliens that have invaded the planet, and which aliens are located deep in the oceans from which places they selectively attack the human race using various kinds of environmental means – in the end, between one third to one eighth of the previous human population of the planet remains alive, even after the aliens have been eliminated.
Wyndham, the author, himself was reported several times to have said that he sometimes became so feverishly caught up in his own stories and plots, that he wasn’t at all completely satisfied that he had made the actual points clear that he wanted to make, by the time his publishers insisted the books went to print.
The trap of any false antithesis, is that seldom does it resemble human reality: there is one pole, contending with its opposite -, the objective though, of the very first premise, itself being logically unfounded. ...Whereas human reality actually does have certain experienced logical and logically well-founded bases. Denying such real causes of action is pure mischief if it is done on purpose. It’s when someone wants to try and convince you that you are experiencing something different from what you really are experiencing, that the false antithesis is generally presented to the uncritical mind. And it serves to continue to distract the individual from focusing on actual authentic experienced reality which can provide real reasons for action. The false antithesis leads people to false actions, which do not benefit them, but benefit some other agent of the agenda.
‘The Kraken Wakes’ is not an example of deliberate manipulation through false antithesis, but it is an example of something where most critics and readers have entirely missed the wider consequence of what is presented, because of the ‘rubbernecking’ attractiveness of the superficial premise. For instance – there is only the final absolute advantage of (let’s say in the example of the Wyndham book), the invading aliens, or the humans...
The reality, however, is that if there were truly ‘one set of aliens’ as an existential truth (IE that such things really did exist), then what’s to say there would not be others closely following behind the first wave whose reason for being in the first place, was to cull the planet’s population (to the ‘one third/one eighth’ as in the book) – a thing which they had succeeded in achieving, despite they had been destroyed themselves!
Any absolute wiping out of any one given, of only two sides, becomes no longer an on-going narrative about two sides, but only one; the winning one.
There is no on-going narrative about how dinosaurs can rule the Earth, since there are no dinosaurs actually left. There is a theoretical history about what they were, but not about what they are; because they are not, any longer.
The problem we are really left with here, is what if there have already been ET aliens here on this planet already, or that they have been here for a very long time? There is in this case, simply then, no reason to say that they ever were malevolent. Which leads to many many completely unanswered real questions – questions which are completely relevant now that we have at last ‘perceived’ the true equation... Namely that it is not, cannot be, and cannot have ever been, a ‘zero-sum’ proposition from the start.
So the sole paradigm of ‘aliens versus humans’ as only a zero-sum game, dismisses the possibility that there might be firstly more than one type of alien ‘invading,’ yet the very fact that there were (at least in the fictional story let’s say) one type of alien, as opposed to there never having ever been any aliens previously at all, critically logically implies the distinct possibility now that there can be many other types, many more coming, perhaps some of even vastly greater power than those that just now had wiped out four fifths of the human population (in the story)... And most certainly in any case that we have totally failed to comprehend what their motivations might really be. We assumed ‘invasion;’ we assumed ‘enemy,’ we assumed that we even could penetrate the complex ideas of a very far far more advanced species of sentient and super-advanced intelligent being than we were or are by even now.
The reasoning of a simple polar antithetical conflict or contest... ...is wrong.
Broadening The Focus, To – ‘Wicca,’ And ‘Chakras.’ Why Those?:
Part of the systematic political strategy of ‘manufacturing of consent’ includes long-range, and very massive social movements funded by many hidden interests – and some of the obvious examples here would include the so-called ‘Antifa’ movement, and ‘Black Lives Matter’ and ‘civil society’ initiatives of George Soros worldwide. These movements are formed long before certain pre-planned key turning points are to be reached, usually in the political arena.
The ‘Asch Conformity Experiment’ is in fact a kind of a scientifically-validated example of ‘sympathetic magic.’ People all come to do something, to think something, that they never would have were it to be based on objective causes that had been left alone – but instead, they become persuaded, to act and to think in conformity to a false belief though one which has the weight of apparent social consensus.
To habituate people to such false thinking, long-range strategic activities like occultism, and wicca, and anything that is a group validation of ‘action at a distance’ and the contradicting of normal experienced reality, are inculcated into the populace as ‘simply’ artistic expression, or ‘new or emerging social norms.’
These things will have absolutely no similitude whatsoever to actual genuine traditional pagan systems and philosophies. And so the authentic ones must be suppressed – and they are. One striking example of this is the suppressed interview given by the early ‘exposed’ authentic English ethnic traditional culture witches, Pat Crowther, in which she expressly denied that the actual correct wording was ‘Wicca’ but only ‘Wicce...’ And she went on to explain that even the pronunciation that was being widely used by ‘pop’ and ‘fantasy’ ‘witches’ was categorically wrong. But to no avail.
Instead, there is much literature about and by people who never had traditional cultural roots in such things – such as for example, Alistair Crowley – but who have come to be inextricably associated with them now. Crowley was an academic, and he even had an acknowledged link to UK secret intelligence and thus necessarily to misinformation and to propaganda – and the same is true of the rather malignant personality that comes out in the books attributed to Anthony Burgess, an individual who himself was involved in UK government assassination and torture squads in Palestine and Cyprus. It is quite easy to suggest that the influence of state social propaganda arms such as the Tavistock Institute has been at play in the world of mainstream published English literature at least since some time shortly after World War II.
Such false describing of ancient traditional cultural ideas and beliefs, runs right across Western culture and through virtually all other important world cultures too.
You see, a real witch might really be able to make something ‘happen at a distance,’ might really be able to perform actual nature magic – but no one today believes that because the whole arena has been artificially skewed towards ‘useful’ ‘psychological effects,’ and ‘metaphysics.’ This is a purposeful use of the tactic of promoting the ‘false-antithesis’ into the public mind.
Today, if you ‘Google Search’ the Sanskrit word ‘chakra’ you will inevitably encounter literally thousands of pages and links and references to books and workshops and meditation places – all showing pictures and images and relating descriptions of seven rainbow coloured ‘chakras’ in the human metaphysical ‘body,’ and they will all tell you that you can ‘ground’ yourself, and ‘balance’ your ‘chakras,’ and ‘activate the energy systems’ in those ‘chakras.’ Or you can ‘purify,’ and/or ‘cleanse.’ This is all intentionally laudable, or seemingly laudable, but it is meretricious. It’s designed so as to have you not attempt, worse yet succeed, in photographing anything!
There is not one single ancient Sanskrit Veda which mentions any of these mostly specious aspects that are promoted widely around the place today.
Yes there are references to ‘chakras’ and yes, it is a Sanskrit word, but no, it does not mean anything like what today’s pop fiction/fantasy narrative, and around which huge industries exist, says that it means.
It appears to be the case, that the modern concepts about five, six, or seven ‘chakra points’ (or levels, circles, centres, and so on), come from two specific English writers – Sir John Woodroffe, who wrote his book ‘the Serpent Power’ published in 1919, in which he outlines his understanding of certain earlier Indian works about internal metaphysics and he comes out with a completely inconsistent conclusion that the ‘kundalini system’ and the mainstream Hindu religion were ‘non-dualistic’ belief systems, even while he details various ideas about inner masculine and feminine aspects of a person. And the second key writer to have promoted what has come to be the standard narrative, is Charles Webster Leadbeater, who wrote extensively from 1894 to 1934.
Woodroffe sets out a depiction of an ascending ‘chakra system’ and he claims the word ‘tantra’ means ‘practice’ and this definition is what you will find virtually everywhere today, whereas the actual Sanskrit wording that uses several variations of a root word ‘tantrik’ is to do with weaving, as in a fabric’s warp and weft.
‘Tantrik’ or tantra, is a complicated concept to do with something that runs up, and something that runs across, so that the whole thing becomes a fabric. Human experienced reality then, is a fabric, of gross, visible -, and then of subtle and invisible though none-the-less still material things. And in-between, the real material things, there is an empty space, a negative material reality, called ‘Shi’ (No) ‘Va’ (Thing).
However today, what people mean in doing ‘tantra’ is that they go to a place with nice mats and cushions, and they chant and imagine various things and breathe in certain ways; in other words, they practice, a religious system or do a performance of ritual.
There are no ‘coloured lights’ that come on in your body when you go to a ‘tantra meditation.’
There is no snake that comes out when you chant ‘kundalini-invoking’ chants. (More on what this really relates to, later on; it’s actually much more dramatic even than the fake modern pop ideas think).
And there are no people who rise up off their cushions and mats, and float in the air when they chant ‘Om’ a lot.
And that is why there are no photographs of any of that.
Charles Webster Leadbeater wrote his book about ‘Hindu clairvoyance’ (and the concept of kundalini) which was published in 1899, and Woodroffe, his book about ‘the Serpent Power’ published in 1919.
These books are very interesting – but they are not accurate accounts of what any of these matters are to do with, in any authentic real and practical terms that are based in the ancient Sanskrit source texts which deal with the ideas.
Why this is really important, is going to be explained to you in the next few paragraphs.
