Most Astonishing Health Disaster of the 20th Century

For over 100 years conventional medicine has seized control of the US health care system and as a result we have over 800,000 people who are killed by interacting with this system. It is likely that over 50 million Americans have died prematurely from this abuse.

The abuses of the conventional medical system are the equivalent to three jumbo jets falling out of the sky every day! When will our society wake up to the broad daylight, corporate-sponsored, massacre of thousands of people every day?

IRS loses challenge to prove tax liability

By Bob Unruh | WorldNetDaily.com

The Internal Revenue Service has lost a lawyer’s challenge in front of a jury to prove a constitutional foundation for the nation’s income tax, and the victorious attorney now is setting his sights higher.

“I think now people are beginning to realize that this has got to be the largest fraud, backed up by intimidation and extortion and by the sheer force of taking peoples property and hard-earned money without any lawful authorization whatsoever,” lawyer Tom Cryer told WND just days after a jury in Louisiana acquitted him of two criminal tax counts.

And before you consign him to the legions of “tin foil hat brigades” who argue against paying taxes, and then want payment to explain how to do that, he addresses the issue up front.

“These snake oil peddlers have conned millions of dollars out of many well-intended patriots and left a trail of broken lives in their wake. … These charlatans should be avoided, not only because they will lead you to bankruptcy and prison, but because by association they discredit those who are telling the truth,” he said.

The truth, he said, is where he comes in, with the launch of a new Truth Attack website that is intended to build on his victory, and create a coalition of resources to defeat – ultimately – the income tax in the United States.

Although the legal citations in the case tend to run the length of paragraphs, Cryer told WND the underlying issue is not that complicated. Essentially, he argued that income is not necessarily any money that comes to a person, but rather categories such as profit and interest. Read the rest of this entry »

Jack-hooded Thugs Swarming on Ed & Elaine Brown’s Property

Listening live on http://truthorlies.org/listenlive.html Apparently the feds are still swarming around the compound. About 40 rounds of automatic gunfire was heard earlier tonight.

It looks like, a moment ago, the Jack-hooded thugs started messing with the Browns supporter’s trailers. One of the supporters who is live on the line now is reporting government thugs shaking his trailer.

These are American citizens who are guilty of breaking no law. If you can get to Plainfield, NH and assist the Browns, do so immediately. If you believe in the republic and the rule of law and are able to help, DO IT!! Don’t forget to bring a camera so the whole world can see what they are doing to these people.

The Taboo Against Liberated Self-hood

In the vast majority of interpersonal interactions, there is an unwritten maxim. One may only express the portion of their self-hood that fits into the generally agreed-upon spectrum of being. Since the spectrum in which most people inhabit is a tiny portion of what actually exists, it is impossible for an individual to express a truly liberated self-hood.

The best one can do to reveal their liberated self-hood, is to partially cloak it behind the veil of personality, giving only brief glimpses from time-to-time. In all but the most liberated exchanges between true thinkers, a true opening-up of the mind is one of the greatest taboos. Perhaps this taboo stems from the fear that many of us have of stepping outside of our comfortable little spectrum of certainty and simplicity.

If we are truly shielding all but an infinitesimal portion of our self-hood from the light of day, then an expose of any significant portion of our actual self will be overwhelming and may even be somewhat blinding to the beholders.

I’ve lost count of the number of times that I’ve had an exchange with another who seemed to be interested in stepping outside of the limitations, only to find that the intent was not actually genuine.

In order to be truly liberated, however, you cannot let these things discourage you. If you are truly interested in expressing the beauty of an unbridled mind, then you should do so whether or not the others wish it so. To do otherwise would be suicide.  Search deep within and find that which is the self, liberate it from your personality and let it out for all of the world to see.

Michael Tsarion on the Hermetic Tradition

In this interview Michael Tsarion discusses how, thousands of years ago, the ancients formed the basis for the concepts of existence that we use today. In the modern day, most of us are symbol illiterate; we don’t realize where the symbols we use are from, what they mean or why we they are used.

Most of our symbols were originally derived from the Tarot deck. The Tarot was used long before the modern notion of writing; images are a universal method of communication, as they transcend the differences in language that tend to divide us.

Michael also makes some interesting points about the importance of the physical (material) world versus the psychic (mental) world. It is commonly believed that the physical world is more significant than the psychic world, but the reverse is actually true; the physical world is merely a representation of the state of our psychic world.

This makes perfect sense when you consider the fact that everything we perceive as “material” must travel through the psychic realm for us to even know about it. If our psychic world is in disorder, and we fail to understand its true significance, then how are we to have any understanding of the physical or psychic worlds?

The Icy Planet and the Distant Sun

Inside I see a psychic landscape that represents itself spatially as a cold planet, its surface is covered in snow. Old, but rugged trees stick up through the thick coat of snow that blankets the surface. The sky is clear and the atmosphere has a crispness to it.

Despite the fact that it is very cold and the warmth-providing star is far away, there is a sort of energy in the air that helps to propel all of the beings into motion. Everyone sees the beauty of the landscape and the promise of future bounty, instead of resigning themselves to die in the snow, they tap into a seemingly endless reserve of energy; powerful and regenerative, it can last forever if used properly.

During the daytime hours, a lonely star hovers in the distance and it seems understood that the star desires to be closer to the planet and vice versa. As much as they may desire a more direct exchange of energy, they are on their courses; the same courses that they have been on for billions of years.

But all is well, as the collective realizes that things need to be a certain way. They realize that their passion is charged by the absence of ideal conditions and this will actually help them to grow into stronger and more vibrant beings.

Indeed, if all were well from the start, then there would be little reason to act; with nothing to motivate one’s self to improve, they would simply decay into non-existence. This lack, this hollow, provides the nectar of being; it gives the cold and tired inhabitants of this place reason enough to figure the alchemical formulas needed to continually energize this ceaseless reservoir of passion and create a rich and diverse array of experiences for the collective mind to absorb.

Ron Paul: In for the Long Haul

July 27, 2007

by Scott Sutton | LewRockwell.com

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”
~ Mahatma Gandhi

“The presidency is now a cross between a popularity contest and a high school debate, with an encyclopedia of cliches the first prize.”
~ Saul Bellow

About Ron Paul’s Fundraising

On July 15th, the Federal Election Commission announced the 2nd-quarter fundraising totals for each presidential candidate. In the Republican field, Ron Paul’s $2.4 million placed him:

  • 3rd in total receipts for the quarter
  • 4th in total receipts to date
  • 3rd in total current assets (ahead of former front-runner John McCain, and just $800,000 behind Mitt Romney)

Thus far, 47% of the contributions made to Ron Paul’s campaign are donations of under $200 from individuals (John McCain’s 17% is the second-highest percentage). This is a telling statistic, as it highlights the fact that most other candidates rely heavily upon donations from corporate interests and political action committees (PACs) (i.e. moneyed, influence-seeking sources who can readily afford to contribute large sums). Since Congressman Paul has always voted against special favors and privileges for anyone, special interests know they have nothing to gain by stuffing Ron Paul’s campaign coffers. As one member of my local Meetup group put it on a home-made sign, “Ron Paul is thin because he won’t let special interests buy him lunch.” Read the rest of this entry »

Fast Food Milkshakes Exposed

mercola.com health blog (video)

Even though I live in America now, I still like to keep an eye on the British press to see what’s going on in Britain. A little while ago, I came across an article in one of Britain’s biggest newspapers, The Guardian. I found the article funny, but at the same time, shocking.

The headline of the article went like this: The 59 Ingredients in a Fast Food Strawberry Milkshake. Now, that’s not a very good start. Is it? Fifty-nine ingredients. So, I looked a little further, and it turns out that in one fast food restaurant strawberry milkshake from a big fast food chain, there are two ingredients that are notably absent: Milk and Strawberries!! Does that put you off for life already? Well, let’s see if I can put you off a bit further. Read the rest of this entry »

7/7/7 Crop Circles: 1,033-Foot-Long Wheat Formation “Happened Within 90 Minutes.”

Crop circles are one of the most visible forms of paranormal phenomena and they occur regularly in certain parts of the world. A recent crop circle, found in East Field, Alton Barnes, is one of the most bizarre examples of crop circle formation to date. In this case the researchers were anticipating the crop circle formation and had their cameras ready to record what happened.

For an in-depth look at the paranormal evidence, check out Linda Moulton Howe’s investigative report on the events of July 7, 2007. Read the rest of this entry »

Careful believing a man is God… Sai Baba is God?

Even if you do believe a man can be a god, how can any one man be more of a god than another? Do we not all have our own inner divinity? How can it be quantified so as to say one of us is more “godlike” than another?

Over 100,000,000 people believe that Swami Sai Baba is a living “god.” I often wonder why they believe this, as I have seen no evidence that he is any more “god” than you or I.

Sai Baba uses materialization of objects to mesmerize his followers into believing that he has supernatural powers. Many of these tricks, however, are mere magician tricks and he has been caught faking them in the past.

Several families have come forth claiming that Sai Baba molested their children or exposed himself to them. The founder of Hard Rock Cafe gives millions to Sai Baba, yet his Cafe serves slaughtered cows by the millions each year. Doesn’t it seem bizarre that a man who’s business murders cows is the chief supporter of Sai Baba?

While many of us are looking for alternatives to the commonly held beliefs of our cultures, it is unfortunate that many of the alternatives aren’t held in a critical light before they are accepted.
