I went christmas shopping for the family today, and this is the first song I hear through the loud speakers in the street lol, oh universe... you kidder.
"Here are the five alternate histories," Gruad said, his wise old eyes crinkling humorously. "Each of you will be responsible for planting the evidence to make one of these histories seem fairly credible. Wo Topod, you get the Carcosa story. Evoe, you get the lost continent of Mu." He handed out two bulky envelopes. "Gao Twone, you get this charming snake story—I want variations of it scattered throughout Africa and the Near East." He handed out another envelope. "Unica, you get the Urantia story, but that one isn't to be released until fairly late in the Game." He picked up the fifth envelope and smiled again. "Kajeci, my love, you get the Atlantis story, with certain changes that make us out to be the most double-dyed bastards in all history. Let me explain the purpose behind that ..."
"It is written," he said, "that the universe is a practical joke by the general at the expense of the particular. Do not be too quick to laugh or weep, if you believe this saying. All I can say is, there is a serious threat in being to all your plans. I warn you. You have been warned. You may all die. Are you afraid of death? You need not answer— I see that you are. That in itself may be a mistake. I have tried to explain to you about not fearing death, but you will not listen. All your other problems follow from that."
The other four Illuminati Primi listened in cold, disdainful silence and did not reply.
"If all are One," the fifth Illuminatus added significantly, "all violence is masochism."
"If all are One," Brother Otto replied nastily,'"all sex-is masturbation. Let's have no more mehum metaphysics here."
"Okay, then, here's the payoff, and your answer better be good. Why are you helping the Illuminati to
immanentize the Eschaton, Hagbard?"
"It steam-engines when it comes steam-engine time, as a very wise man once said."
"Jesus," Joe said wearily. "I thought I had crossed that pom asinorum. When I figured out how you get the goose out of the bottle in the Zen riddle— you do nothing and wait for the goose to peck its way out, just like a chick pecks its way out of an egg— I realized 'Do what thou wilt' becomes 'the whole of the law' by a mathematical process. The equation balances when you realize who the 'thou' is, as distinguished from the ordinary 'you.' The whole fucking works, the universe—all of it alive in the same way we're alive, and mechanical in the same way we're mechanical. The Robot. The one more trustworthy than all the Buddhas and sages. Oh, Christ, yes, I thought I understood it all. But this, this . . . this stone fatalism— what the hell are we going to Ingolstadt for, if we can't do anything?"
"The coin has two sides. It's the only coin that comes up at this time, but it still has two sides." Hagbard leaned forward intensely. "It's mechanical and alive. Let me give you a sexual metaphor, since you usually hang out with New York intellectuals. You look at a woman across a room and you know you're going to bed with her before the night is over. That's mechanical: Something has happened when your eyes met But the orgasm is organic; what it will be like, neither of you can predict. And I know, just as the Illuminati know, that immanentization is going to happen on May first because of a mechanical process Adam Weishaupt started on another May first two centuries ago, and because of other processes other people started before then and since then. But neither I nor the Illuminati know what form immanentization will take. It doesn't have to be hell on earth. It can be heaven on earth. And that's why we're going to Ingolstadt."
The Illuminatus! Trilogy is a series of three novels written by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson.
Knowing synopsis: An Astrophysics teacher opens a time capsule that has been dug up at his son's elementary school; in it are some chilling predictions of strings of numbers (date, longitude latitude, nr of deaths) -- some that have already occurred and others that are about to -- that lead him to believe his family plays a role in the events that are about to unfold. The end of the current world with a Solar Flare (2012 Sunspots?).
The first of two songs that are seemingly and eerily connected to the movie
Sunspots cast a glare in my eyes Sometimes I forget I'm alive I feel it coming and I've got to get out of its way I hear it calling and I come cause I can't disobey I should not listen and I shouldn't believe But I do Yes I do
She turns me on She makes me real I have to apologize For the way I feel
My life, it seems has taken a turn Why in the name of god would I ever want to return? Peel off our skin we're gonna burn what we were to the ground Fuck in the fire and we'll spread all the ashes around I wanna kill away the rest of what's left and I do Yes I do
And nothing can stop me now There is nothing to fear And everything I'd ever want Is inside of here
Now I just stare into the sun And I see everything I've done I think I could have been someone But I can't stop what has begun When everything is said and done And there is no place left to run I think I used to be someone Now I just stare into the sun
like the whispering wind you sent to me like the hopeless time you gave to me I watched your dreams all slip away I watched your dreams all slip away there's a hopeless place inside my heart when I look inside I see where we are like the whispering wind in the top of my trees i will watch the sky come following me like the rain on my windows late every night like the hope I have for us every time it's like the whispering wind in the top of the trees I see it sway as you come for me
there's a whispering wind I feel it inside like a place I can feel but never will see let a whisper come touch you come touch every thing I stand in the way of the things I can be let the whispering wind come lift us away let it push us apart if we wish to stay you're my sweetness my baby my love for all time like the whispering wind it makes you all mine like the whispering wind you stand here with me like the whispering wind you stand here with me I see your dreams all slip away
"I mean numerology, Kabbalah, Pythagorean cults, they're systems that find meaning in numbers, they're a dime in a dozen, why? Because people see what they wanna see." "It wasn't coincidence, I drove past at the exact moment the prediction came through. It's not coincidence." "Ok John I didn't say it was, so what do we call this, synchronicity? Two unrelated events, time capsule, plane crash combined to create a significance with the subject, you?"
Hollywood that makes a living of "meaningful coincidence" finally utters the word Synchronicity, I wonder if it hurt and how much...
Nic' Cage his character's son (Their last name is Koestler, Arthur Koestler wrote about synchronicity) also hears the whispering wind and has his third/all seeing eye wide open Apocalypse=Revealing
Flammable Moose
The All Seeing Eye:
In the triangle...
Look it's the Blond German Master Race!
I mean Aliens, Andromedans,...
I mean the energetic lightbodies
I mean Angels?
I guess I mean all of the above and then some
(K)No Wings, not really anyway, but they're there
Enter the Stargate between the two pillars my dear let it push us apart if we wish to stay let the whispering wind come lift us away And off they go, the Chosen ones White Lights in the Sky
From another Alex Proyas film The Crow: "I like the pretty lies" (lights) And the moral of the story is, again, ffs hollywood, humans were an uncontrollable herd anyway who fucked up their world long before the sun did (but the Status Quo's programming and controlling had nothing to do with it though! Nooo :p) GLOBAL CRISIS Glow Ball Crisis Btw, about the Financial Crisis To me it seems to be mostly a crisis of those who believe in that propaganda And for those that perpetuated it, a great financial and restructuring opportunity. No sign of it at my work. Lots of signs on the news(ance) though.
There is nothing to fear And everything I'd ever want Is inside of here GlowBall Crisis indeed Peel off our skin we're gonna burn what we were to the ground I watched your dreams all slip away
Now I just stare into the sun
Out with the old, in with the new Follow the White Rabbit Adam and Eve it's like the whispering wind in the top of the trees I see it sway as you come for me
The Chosen ones are delivered to the Garden of Eden With the Tree of Life/Knowledge (KnowingLedger? ;p) One last thing kids, about the apples... ;)
"Beats me, who knows, maybe nothing," Morrison said. "But things are speeding up, information doubles exponentially toward this moment but the world's never ended yet, it may not end then. There's a lot of weird interesting things happening in 2012, planetary alignment. You might wake up one morning thinking you're on an acid trip that never ends. So if something happens I'll be there waiting with open arms!" (btw, we're in the sixth day, woo!)
One audience member asked about the effect of psychedelic drugs on Morrison's writing. "They were very big in The Invisibles." Morrison said that for years, he was completely straight edge but around the time he turned 30, he decided to do all the things he'd never done before, including transvestitism and "a lot of psychedelic drugs." He explained that the principle cast of The Invisibles were essentially five characters each based on elements of his own personality.
A fan then asked about how Morrison's experience in Katmandu--which famously informed a great deal of The Invisibles--has impacted the rest of his writing. "The Katmandu thing was really weird because I had taken a little bit of hash, but it was such a small bit and the experience I had was so profound and nothing like that has ever happened again." He explained that part of the idea of taking so many drugs in the '90s was trying to replicate that experience. "I tried all kinds of things to se if it was possible, and nothing took me to that place. It was something quite unusual and different and I was never able to get back there again."
"So.. one can see how easily those who wield the symbolism behind the city can manifest their will ~ as it aides in the validation of the world's most popular Belief system and has been thrown into the political arena via subliminal thought forms in pop culture."
