Letters to the Living

There is a myth that certain nefarious things occurred at the Council of Nicea in 325 AD. One of these is that the the four gospels were chosen and other gospels were tossed out. The original source of this myth is a fictitious pseudo-historical account of early Church councils known as the Synodicon Vetus written in 887 AD. The French philosopher Voltaire popularized this false account in the 18th century, and Christian radical Robert Taylor revived it in the 19th. Though fully debunked, this trope goes on being popular among people who consider themselves hip. 

NINE REASONS PEOPLE THINK THERE IS A PANDEMIC Predictive Programming, 2012 London Olympics  Frightening images coming out of China with crisis actors splashed over the media in 2019. Computer generated images of scary looking "viruses" that look like photographs but aren’t. The sight of people wearing masks all around you helps bolster the illusion something invisible is in the air. Seeing mask mandate signs plastered on windows everywhere reinforces the illusion. And social distancing markers on floors wherever you go. Hand sanitizer everywhere. A procedure you keep hearing (falsely) is a "test." Hearing the “covid” mantra all day in the media. https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=30777234920&searchurl=ds%3D20%26kn%3Dthe%2Bcontagion%2Bmyth%2Bthomas%2Bcowan%26sortby%3D17&cm_sp=snippet-_-srp1-_-title3 

There are four principal tenets of Darwin's Theory of Evolution. 1. Gradualism -- Taken from 19th century developments in geological science, gradualism is the view that formative processes take place gradually over very long periods of time. 2. Continuously occurring accidental mutations -- Mutations are always occurring in biological forms, at all levels, at all times, and at an even rate. So there is constant change in the shapes of species. Nothing is standing still. 3. Randomness -- Mutations in biological forms are random and have no direction, pattern, or purpose. Evolution has no design or intention. 4. Natural Selection -- Selection of the fittest specimens by natural forces like competition for limited food resources, mating preferences, and predators, effectively selects certain traits and leaves others to go extinct. Those with a new trait that forms by random mutation that is more conducive to survival eventually replace those without the trait. This is what they call

In 1965 Baba said: ". . . by the end of November 1967 — there will be the war that will destroy three-fourths of the world. India will be desolated. All countries will suffer untold disaster, but America will survive a little more than the rest of the world. I will then break my silence, after which there will be my Universal Manifestation and the world will come to know Who I am." – Meher Baba LM 5157 Two years later, out of the blue and with no clear meaning, at the end of November 1967 , Baba said: "Father, pity them for they know not what will happen."  Meher Baba LM, p.5302 Said at the end of November 1967 At the very time Baba said these words, two men, Aurelio Peccei and Alexander King, "met several times in the latter part of 1967 and early-1968 , and then decided that they had to do something constructive to encourage longer-range thinking among Western European governments." This turned out to be the germination of the Club of Rome , which in

1. The evil project of Human 2.0 is due to a misunderstanding of the catalyst, process, and purpose of evolution, i.e. what, how, and why man evolves. THESE 3 FUNCTIONS ARE ADDRESSED DIRECTLY IN MY BOOK ---- AND NOWHERE ELSE AS FAR AS I KNOW.  People assume the world was caused by some kind of Big Bang by accident -- and that evolution is pushed by a dog-eat-dog kill-or-be-killed ethos and has no higher meaning or purpose than competition for survival.   This thinking leads pretty quickly to elite-directed eugenics. You don't have to be that smart to see that. 2. The oneness principle (that is already out there as a meme but has no clear explanation to go with it) is most important if we are to overcome this horrid outlook on the impetus of life.  "The individual soul has to realize with full consciousness its identity with the universal Soul. Man shall reorient life in the light of this ancient Truth and will readjust his attitude toward his neighbors in everyday life. To per

The notion of ascended masters is not as old as some people assume. Its introduction stems from the  writings of the 19th century Theosophical Society in New York. The same is true of the personal savior concept prevalent in Christian sermons and hymns today. This is the notion that for each Christian Jesus can be his personal savior if he allows him into his life.  This concept did not exist in ancient Christianity before 1700. I think knowing this would be upsetting to some evangelical Christians today, as well as to Baba lovers who have also adopted this concept.  While believing you are communing with an 'ascended master' or a 'personal savior' may at first seem to be a form of closeness to God, it is in fact a form of separation in the imagination. Rather than seeing God as your own true inner Self and the inner Self of your neighbor, you see him as somehow out there watching you. The following gospel songs that convey this notion are all of modern origin. "He

Here is an objection one might make to EOP (my theory of an Evolution of Perception).  I am taking a ‘law of nature’ (ostensibly governing nature) and saying that is merely a ‘nominal’ cause for what we can only 'describe' but have no real way to explain beyond naming this law.  Aren’t I myself citing an unseen cause for an action, i.e. some law and then simply calling that law ‘a perceptual schema’ that governs perception? Isn’t a perceptual schema itself just another ‘nominal cause’ i.e. a name for some know-not-what?  That is the objection. My answer to such an objection is that it mischaracterizes what I'm doing and not doing. Let me quote Isaac Newton.  I have not as yet been able to discover the reason for these properties of gravity from phenomena, and I do not feign hypotheses [meaning he does not pretend to guess]. For whatever is not deduced from the phenomena must be called a hypothesis; and hypotheses, whether metaphysical or physical, or based on occult qualiti

The elite have a false idea of what is entailed in what we call "thought," and this misconception leads them to falsely conclude that they can duplicate it with machines. They assume that the meanings of words are reducible to a binary code of 1s and 0s that correlates with electrical brain states, and so they can 'read & write' human thoughts with a computer.  And they believe they can reproduce in computers what we call "consciousness," because their theories of mind assume that consciousness is none other than such computer-like functions in the human brain. This theory is called 'Functionalism' and is the dominant theory of mind in our time. Meher Baba says that while a person with ordinary consciousness does not directly experience what he calls the mental sphere, he "uses" his mental faculty. Thought is not reducible to 1s and 0s or even to language, logic, and syntax.  Thought isn't so simple that you can reduce it down to la
