This is worth a read - what do you think? "...The reconstruction of your consciousness into this automaton thing is being executed in such a manner that it goes virtually undetected; in fact you are doing it to yourself and don't even know it. Why with the proper incentive, you're doing it to yourself and just love it - look at all the "stuff" you have. You’re so comfortable you have become passive, submissive, and you don't even have to think. You just go with the flow. It feels good and quite natural running on automatic. However, disrupt your automatic mental state with even the simplest of problems - like misplacing your keys or wallet - and life becomes a living hell in your mind until you find those keys or wallet to re-establish your habitual routine. This becomes true of any little problem in life. You want it resolved as fast as possible, to stop the mental frustration, torment and confusion. You have become so addicted to living life under the control of others that even small annoyances become stressful events in your life. You are constantly being fed images, sounds and information to keep your mind habitually thinking and speculating upon matters that have little or nothing to do with your life. This keeps you self-programming your mind to react and respond in specific ways to various stimuli when presented. For example, your television is literally programming you. The negative factor associated with the news is the same stress factor that causes changes in your mental and emotional thinking patterns which cause physical changes to your body; sickness, disease, and possibly premature death. Why you even carry the news with you wherever you go, stressing everyone out with it. You argue with others about it, even fight physically about these opinions that were given to you. After only a few years of the news, the stress and this unnatural human interaction, have made you addicted to living someone elses life. You even start things going with those you know will argue and fight with you over a trivial matter. You get your mental and emotional fix in this way. Emotional, drug like habits are being developed in you to generate abnormal states of depression, loneliness, and many other unusual and unnatural states of mind. Through repetition, your mind quickly identifies itself with certain unnatural, emotional, and mental states of consciousness as being normal. A few years ago you would have viewed this as abnormal. Your emotions are being used against you to lead directly to the habituation and subsequent automation of your mind. Your emotions are being developed to rule over your intellect because as a determinant, the emotions offer greater subjective identification to unnatural stimuli. A few uncontrolled people see this form of mind manipulation being used to lead the masses towards war. While the reason for war always appears to be developed around intellectual reasoning, the real rallying points pivot around the long term, deep rooted feelings that have been cultivated in your minds over many years. People are medicated so heavily with emotional stimuli, that very few can ever accomplish anything in life. While you imagine, think about, and consider all sorts of things you would like to do in life, you never seem to be able to make your dreams come true. As the years roll by, your mind becomes habituated and addicted to living life in an emotional failure mode. When it comes to making the proper choices and getting things done, your mind continues to worry and speculate upon all sorts of obstacles that prevent you from taking any action towards manifesting your dreams. You are under the influence of, and listening to, the "puppet masters" as they dictate to your mind and its emotions. You are being controlled. Your life is becoming more and more illusionary, lacking less and less in the substance of experience. The computer, the Internet, and virtual reality are quickly habituating many minds into automatons, to function like robots, in the labs and slave factories of society. You have lost consciousness of who you really are. You are a prisoner in your own mind. You are being held hostage by the invisible strings of others you do not even know. In fact, these small groups of people want you to stop reading any further, right now. Conclusion You must learn how to "switch off" these preconceived ideas and open your mind, if only for a few moments at a time, to see what is being communicated to you. You must learn how to "switch off" or temporarily ignore the subtle programming and imagery being used to control you, if you are ever going to realize your true identity. Whether you believe these things or not, our shared destiny has been realized, and the choice is now yours. http://www.geocities.com/alienaxioms/mind-control.html
This certainly is not news to me. People are manipulated all the time without even knowing it. Then people laugh when I say there's an elite group that is literally controlling every facet of our lives, even though most people who hear that will think it's completely ludicrous.
Interesting link on some govt. mind control programs.... MKUltra, Monarch, amoung others... http://www.xs4all.nl/~sm4csi/nwo/MindControl/mind_control_index.htm http://educate-yourself.org/mc/ http://www.angelfire.com/or/mctrl/index.html
Thanks Pressed Rat and Leigh- thanks so much for those links! I don't know if you have ready the book called Psychic Warrior by David Morehouse: http://www.uri-geller.com/pw.htm PSYCHIC WARRIOR By David Morehouse David Morehouse, a highly decorated, third generation army officer, special-operations infantryman, and one of the army's elite airborne ranger company commanders, was labeled "destined to wear stars" by his superiors. But a mission in a remote desert valley in the Kingdom of Jordan changed his life forever. Wounded by a stray machine-gun bullet, he began to have inexplicable visions and haunting nightmares. His experiences redirected his brilliant future and led to a series of frightening glimpses into another world. When Morehouse disclosed these occurrences to military authorities, they earmarked him for recruitment into Stargate, a top-secret clan of psychic spies backed by the Central Intelligence Agency and the Defense Intelligence Agency. These extraordinary spies, labeled "remote viewers" by the U. S. government, trained Morehouse to become one of their top operatives in the psychic espionage program. Psychic Warrior is the true story, told for the first time, of one man's journey into the CIA's most top-secret and successful psychic warfare operation. As Morehouse recounts his experiences, the reader becomes the "viewer," traveling to unknown worlds: to the pain, anguish, and horror of Dachau; to the searing heat of ground zero at Hiroshima; to classified counterterrorist missions; to the Ark of the Covenant; and to the choking smoke of Desert Storm's aftermath, to name but a few. Soon after being recruited into Stargate, Morehouse reaised that the government's eventual purpose was to take "remote viewing" into the realm of weaponry. Determined to prevent his gift from becoming an instrument of war, Morehouse embarked on a campaign to blow the lid off the top-secret government program. The consequences to his family included numerous attempts on his life and the lives of his wife and children, as well as phone taps and alarming calls in the night, culminating in a court-martial that resulted in his resignation under duress. Yet Morehouse persevered in his quest to reveal the chilling lengths to which certain factions of the U. S. government will go to hide the truth. Psychic Warrior is a fascinating examination of the untapped power of the human subconscious and a moving story of one man's crusade to ensure that it is used for peace.
i guess this is related too: People that become just cubes of flesh I agree whole wheartedly on the 'STUFF' element. The less stuff you have the more free you become. This is an honest fact, I've tried it. It's at first scary, and upsetting when giving away your things. Then you feel liberated. The only things I have left that I'm finding trouble parting with are a few books and a wallet full of CDs. I suppose its a balance between luxury and necessity. ~
I'd say that most people are completely unaware of the ingenius allegory of the Matrix trilogy. Those 3 films are oh-so important when looked at correctly. www.propagandamatrix.com
Just today I was trying to explain to someone the freedom felt out on the road with but a backpack and a direction. They saw it as being underprivledged, getting that out of your system, less than,a phase, a mental problem, ... I felt sad for them living in that little bubble, seems there was no angle that they could view freedom from that wasn't negative.
I like what you wrote, and how true it is. This is a form of mass hypnosis, I think. The ones with all the money and power control the information systems - communications, advertising etc and we become their economic robots/slaves (or we are supposed to). And it works when people become so mindless that they ONLY care about themselves and their own pockets, mortgages, possessions, anaesthetising subastances etc. I believe it is compassion that makes a big difference, because with it you can see further than your own backyard and pocket book. If you think globally, what hurts one part of the earth or its people hurts you too. You have empathy, and sensitivity, and want to releive suffering and make life better for all, generally. How sad that many or most human beings have come to this...that they may as well be robots. How sad for us all and for the earth. I pity them when they die and have to look back over a life wasted on purchases and observing other people's stories (tv etc) and not focussed upon their own presence and power and the greater good of humanity.
Yeah, dhARmaMiLlO, I can relate to the flesh cubes story. A few years in the hardware industry is the same.
companies do studies on children to see what types of thigns they dream about then they gear their commercials towards innocent, impressionable children, forming life-long loyal customers
