Trust The Plan
... with a capital P.
First of all, expect me to repeat myself a lot in these posts. I’m not providing any new insights or knowledge. I’m reiterating what needs to be reiterated until it sinks in. While repetition is the most effective form of mind control, it’s also a necessary tactic to get the truth drilled home. So, here we go…
As my fellow anarchists know, as long as most of us continue to believe in “authority” and the legitimacy of the state, we will not win. That isn’t pessimism, that’s just the hard fact of the matter. There are no white hats, no “plan,” no swamp-draining, and no political heroes or saviors. There’s only you, your ability to understand the objective difference between right and wrong, and what you choose to do with that knowledge.
Most of us still don’t have it. We have a distorted concept in our minds on what morality is, and that’s the sole reason why we suffer. We base it on personal beliefs, preferences, religious dogmas, likes and dislikes, and not on inherent principles. We are quick to cheer for the infringement of other people’s rights if it makes us feel more comfortable. We take no personal responsibility for anything. It’s always someone else’s fault. Order-followers are especially guilty of this.
Our lack of true conscience is why we do not truly understand our Rights. We can’t correctly define the word. That level of ignorance causes many of us to violently impose our own worldviews, whims and dogmatic beliefs onto others, often through our appeals to "authority" and manmade "law,” neither of which have moral legitimacy.
Those who do have a modicum of conscience too often ignore it because they don't want to accept the personal responsibility that comes with that knowledge – to take Right Action. They fear the immediate consequence of doing so, having more concern over the personal harm or inconvenience that might happen rather than the worldwide, long-term consequences of continuous wrong action. And so our suffering continues... and it will continue until we look within, acknowledge the uncomfortable truth, and change.
Moral Relativism is the core of the issue. It is the real pandemic in this world. It is the real original sin. It is the absolute destroyer of Freedom. Natural Law (Moral Law, Spiritual Law, The Golden Rule) has been rejected, suppressed and replaced with “government,” “authority” and man’s “law,” and look where that’s taken us. We’ve succumbed to the ego, eaten the forbidden fruit, and fallen from grace. The rejection of Natural Law is the greatest abomination and blasphemy to Creation. It’s spitting into the face of God and saying “fuck your law, I will decide good and evil for myself.” That can only ever lead to suffering and death.
We need to heal this perspective, and it CAN be healed. That’s what our work is to do as teachers… as moral educators. Here’s the first lesson:
Morality is not a construct of the mind. It is behavior-based. It's based on what you do in the world, how you act. The difference between right behavior and wrong behavior exists inherently in Nature purely and independently from your perceptions, beliefs, whims and preferences, feelings, opinions, likes and dislikes. It is written on the human heart. It has absolutely nothing to do with man's "laws" or religious dogma, and is not a matter of debate. It does not change based on location or time period. What is moral in one place and time is moral in ALL places and times, and what is immoral in one place and time is immoral in ALL places and times.
If we want to change our situation and move towards Freedom, we must understand Morality objectively as a Law of Nature. By “Nature,” I do not mean the earth, but reality as a whole, both physical and spiritual. The words “natural” and “spiritual” are interchangeable. The ancient Egyptians called the Universal Divine Force “NTR” (neh-cher). Natural Law is universal, eternal, immutable and binding. It is a guidance system and an infallible force of justice. It is the ultimate act of Love given to us along with the Free Will to choose. We’ve chosen poorly for far too long. It’s time to make a new choice: to re-balance ourselves in consciousness and re-connect with this beautiful Law of Love and Freedom. It is the Master Key.
As I’ve said in previous posts: there is no political, financial, technological, or religious solution. The solution lies within our hearts and in our actions. We have to stop doing the things we have no moral right to do. We have to stop condoning immoral behavior done by others. We have to widen our concerns for the suffering of all, not just “you and yours.” We have to stop euphemising, celebrating, justifying and condoning evil in the name of a false sense of comfort and “safety.” Adherence to Natural Law brings us the true Greater Good: Sovereignty, Freedom and Order.
There’s nothing you need to believe in (besides yourself), no organization or church you need to join, no doctrine you need to follow, no tithe you need to pay, and no appeals you need to make to some perceived “authority.” You just need to do what’s Right, even when it seems like the hardest thing to do. The right thing usually is.
Sacrifices must be made. The word sacrifice is derived from the Latin adjective sacre: “holy; sacred,” and the Latin verb facere: “to create; to make.” A true sacrifice, made for the right reasons, is a truly sacred deed. Sometimes we must recognize when it is time to give everything, possibly our lives, to do the Right thing. This kind of noble sacrifice is the ultimate act of Courage… and that’s what we need. Stop fearing, and charge head on with Conscience, Courage, Conviction and Care.
That is a plan you can trust.
