In my last articles I pointed out the fatal flaws of the current ruling paradigm; the paradigm of materialism rooted in dualistic thinking. Materialism not only fails to explain many essential aspects of our reality, but its logical structure also fails.
Materialism fails to explain past life recall, reincarnation, near death experience, telepathy, telekinesis and so forth... even though evidence for all these phenomena is well documented and statistically unassailable. Materialism fails to explain the origin of life on Earth, speciation, consciousness... and yet science is holding on to this false belief system, this illusion, seemingly at all cost.
Materialism also fails by internal logic; matter, considered fundamental by materialism, is convertible into energy and energy into matter. Nuclear energy and particle accelerators do this conversion every day, without doubt. If matter were truly fundamental, the ultimate basis of all existence, this conversion could not happen.
For matter to be converted into energy and for energy to be converted into matter there must be a common functioning principle through which the conversion occurs... and the CFP of matter/energy must by definition be more fundamental than either matter or energy. Matter and energy are the flip sides of a more fundamental CFP, whatever it may be.
The power of illusionary belief is immense; mainstream science is constrained by false belief, by illusion. The dogmas of materialist science are rooted in illusion; no evidence showing the failure of the prevailing paradigm or illusion is examined or even admitted to exist. The taboo against such investigation is too powerful for all but a few mavericks who investigate reality in spite of mainstream dogma.
History is filled with examples of the power of illusion; when the illusion that the Earth is flat prevailed, voyagers were afraid to travel out to sea because they would 'fall off the edge'. When Galileo showed that the Earth is not at the center of the universe, the powers that be... in his case cardinals of the Catholic Church... refused to look through his telescope. Looking at the evidence was forbidden by taboo. Looking and seeing would have been an admission that their beliefs, aka illusions, were wrong.
Eventually all illusion is shattered; once the illusion of a flat earth vanished, sailors crossed the seas without any fear of 'falling off the edge'. Once the illusion that the Earth is at the center of the universe vanished, science and cosmology progressed without hindrance.
The biggest illusion of all is the illusion of power. Specifically, real power is conflated with illusion of power. The US military is arguably the most powerful in the world. The destructive power inherent in the myriad guns, bullets, rockets, and bombs this military commands is beyond doubt. The illusion lies in the belief that a single man, the Commander in Chief, controls this awful power. The illusion is that hundreds of thousands of humans acts at the whim of one person; that the 'chain of command' represents real power.
The chain of command is an illusion, and has power only if and as long as the illusion remains intact. Mutinies, military stand-downs, revolutions, civil wars are all examples of shattered illusion. Once shattered, illusion loses power. Such is the fate of all illusion, even if extraordinary efforts are made by TPTB to maintain an illusion.
In the Soviet military, once considered the second greatest power on Earth, communist 'commissars' accompanied the troops... to make sure that orders were obeyed, that the illusions of Communism were upheld, at the pain of death. Indoctrination, brainwashing, threats are used to maintain the status quo, the ruling illusion... but eventually the illusion shatters, and the power of the illusion vanishes.
At this very moment in history we are witnessing the destruction and imminent breakup of the power of a major illusion. Ebola is a horrific affliction but it brings another illusion to the forefront. If Ebola truly goes 'viral', the illusion of the power of mainstream medicine will be shattered at a wondrous pace.
In a recent interview, an American doctor gave away the illusion, by pointing to its heart. Many other doctors see the truth, see through the illusion... see truth that is being withheld by 'the powers that be', with the excuse that 'we must act to prevent panic'.
Another American doctor, just back from Sierra Leone, has shown that Ebola can be cured by a simple method of blood treatment using ozone. The ozonation of blood kills the Ebola virus, and helps to regulate the immune system. Immune system over reaction to viral invasion seems to be the proximate cause of symptoms and death; Ebola is an autoimmune disease.
The powers that be refuse to allow ozone treatment... because it is taboo, because it violates the current illusion that vaccination is the answer... and to be brutally frank; there is no wealth to be made using ozone therapy. Ozone is dirt cheap, vaccines are lucrative.
The reality is that ozone treatment is forbidden... at the pain of a doctor losing his license to practice. But this 'license to practice' is just a piece of paper. Who cares about a piece of paper if nasty, immanent death threatens? Even though many doctors still obey, others are ready to shatter the paradigm in spite of threats by 'TPTB'. The threat of death by Ebola is stronger than the threat of losing the piece of paper.
Real power lies in the power to cure, not in the piece of paper. As the truth emerges that a cheap, safe, easy method to cure the horror of Ebola exists, and that some doctors are using this method to save lives, the power of truth will easily overcome illusion. The power of the medical establishment will shatter and scatter like chaff in the wind.
This brings us full circle to the most insidious, destructive illusion of all; the illusion that Government issued paper with numbers printed on it is money. This pernicious illusion underlies the power to control and manipulate the world economy to the benefit of the perpetrators, at the expense of the rest of humanity, the victims.
Enormous power lies in the illusion of Fiat 'money'... but like all illusion, is subject to being shattered by truth. Once the illusion of the 'faith and credit' that purportedly backs Fiat currencies is destroyed, a new era of real money will emerge. Real money, Gold; not paper notes borrowed into existence without limit. Truth will replace the illusion and lies of Fiat.
Just as the power of a gun is real, but the power to command where the gun is aimed is an illusion, just as the power to cure disease is real but the license to cure is an illusion... so the power of Gold to extinguish debt is real but the power of Fiat is illusion.
