When to truth or not to truth that is the question!
I was strenuously bent on avoiding having to make a 100 page decision on which parts to chop out of BOK today and went to Safeway for some peanuts.  My lowest form of substitute gratification.
At the counter the young guy asked if I wanted to contribute to fighting breast cancer. I said "It won't do any good believe me. The whole civilization needs to change and the medical world can't do anything."

You see I just can't go on lying, and yet here I was in cancer-city "Safeway the Sure way to die fast" buying a product that for sure is cancer fuel. Still I did feel proud of myself for speaking part of my truth even though I was being a total hypocrite with the peanuts and all.

Really I should have said "Safeway is in conspiracy with the medical industry to generate more sick people to screwover and you want to take my hard earned change to participate in this charade." You see how we are three times f*ked by this deal. Hell for all we know the undertakers are probably in on it too.

If we all speak out, perhaps we can turn things around. But not until we give up our dollar vote, stop with the substitute gratifications, and get a REAL life. For only real people can make a new culture, that is not more of the same lies.

But hey, the peanuts make me reckless enough to chop out the final most important BOK piece, that really does need to go in the sequel...so it is down to around 650 pages now...

A line comes to mind now, from Van Jones...where he was talking about when MLK was giving his most famous speech, it wasn't "I have a problem!", or "I have some issues here...", or "I have a critique", or words to that effect.

Remember the world-visionary thing...

And now, back to the funnies and such:
 Woo Hoo!

JUNG ON THE BOOK OF CHENEY
To Jung such a psychic condition is possible only where there is no conscious reflection at all or it is very feeble. This is a condition that Jung calls amoral. God  " is too unconscious to be moral, suggests Jung."

What is it that Cheney the almighty has against The American People the puny? Well, Jung believes it must be based upon an unconscious recognition on Cheney's part of The American People's moral and conscious superiority, and by this he is reminded of his impotence. Hence we have behaviour that is motivated by jealousy or, more properly, an envy. Thus we have a reason why Cheney was so willing to listen to Evil's insinuations. Any plea that Cheney acted unconsciously is invalidated in that he flagrantly disregards three of the commandments that he himself outlined--murder, thievery, and false witness.

 Cheney projects onto The American People a skeptics face which is hateful to him because it is his own (Shadow). In this situation, humanity, stripped of all protection and whose nothingness is thrust into his face at every opportunity, evidently is considered to be so dangerous that Cheney must use his heaviest bombs to keep them down. The American People are thus challenged as if they were a Cheney himself. There is another factor which appears, one not hidden from omniscience: this new factor is something that has never appeared in the world before--i.e., without knowing or wanting it, a man is elevated by his moral behaviour above the heavens from which he gains a position of advantage over Cheney and behold him…[called the demon by his true name].

Eventually Cheney calmed down (as a result of The American Peoples continual submissive behaviour) still he is nervous of The American People's friends--they too have shown consciousness. We may wonder what this has to do with the impending realization that would have occurred if it were not for Cheney's forgetting to consult his omniscience.  Jung then takes up the question as to the moral wrong that The American People suffered. First, it may be that humanity is so lowly that anything Cheney does to it cannot be immoral? But this would contradict Cheney's need of worshippers. What we see represented is a classic case of ambivalence--Cheney tramples on humanity whenever he sees fit (the expression of hatred) and yet is absolutely dependent upon these same creatures statements of love (the expression of love).

Jung points out, that Cheney's treatment of The American People is a projection of his own inadequacies--i.e., it is the projection of his own tendencies to unfaithfulness onto a scapegoat. Thus there is reason to assume that Cheney is about to loosen his matrimonial ties to Israel but hides this intention from himself--keeps this information repressed and unconscious. Self-reflection becomes an imperative necessity, and for this wisdom is needed. Cheney has to remember his absolute knowledge; for, if The American People gain knowledge of Cheney, then Cheney must also learn to know for himself....The failed attempt to corrupt The American People  has changed Cheney's nature. The American People stand up to Cheney for their rights until he is browbeaten and compelled to give way to the might of Sophia. Yet in this moment, The American People see Cheney's face and the unconscious split in his nature. Thus humanity compensate for Cheney's attitude and neglect of wisdom of Sophia.

AS Jung writes: Taking a highly personified form that is clear proof of her autonomy, Wisdom reveals herself to men as a friendly helper and advocate against Cheney, and shows them the bright side, the kind, just, and amiable aspect of their Cheney.  This time the change that is to occur is not to be found in the world; rather it is Cheney who intends to change his own nature. Thus humanity is not to be destroyed but saved. In this decision we can see the influence of Sophia and it demands that no new ordinary humans are to be created but a spiritually awake humanity.  If Cheney is everything, and indeed everything is a part of Cheney as he breathed life into creation and thus installed a part of himself into everything, We must ask the question "Why the need for Incarnation?"

If Cheney is in everything and if he must enter into creation a second time, in order to become “conscious” there must be something wrong to warrant such activities. Since creation has been corrupted by the influence of evil we might think that Cheney would merely have to call his wayward trickster nature into account and thus rid the world of the root of evil. Thus he would not need to go through the incarnation and nor attempt to “own”  the world.

We should make it clear what is meant when we say that Cheney has made himself into spiritually awake man. This is a universe shattering transformation: "It means more or less what Creation meant in the beginning, namely an objectification of Cheney." Cheney is no longer satisfied by being in nature; he becomes more specific and becomes a conscious feeling man. Cheney becoming a man, says Jung, is simply Cheney becoming concrete. And this is representative of another stage in the process through which Cheney becomes conscious.  The victory of the oppressed is obvious: The American People stand above their creator and are morally higher than is Cheney. This points to some kind of internalized yet unconscious knowledge that Cheney has and this is what requires Cheney to begin to reflect upon himself--here Sophia steps into the picture. It is through Sophia that Cheney decides to become a spiritually awake man. Sophia: Wisdom, spirit, creatrix, or Logos--the word of God.

HI Michael, I was really struggling trying to figure out the psychopompous meaning of our current convergence of crisises and to look into the figure of Cheney himself as an archetype in the collective psyche...a personal attribute of God so to speak, and how we are psychologically positioned towards him as a psychic force. I routed this article www.religiousworlds.com/fondarosa/jung04.html for various sentences that struck me, and then changed "God" and "Yaweh" over to Cheney. I don't know if this clarifies anything, but I think it is food for though with regards to where we as individuals stand in our spiritual-self-esteem and our relationship to The Power Figure. If we can "get" that we bring the Cheneys onto ourselves, then we can get rid of them once and for all. Thus it takes a mature look at just what we are doing with our internal archetpal matrix...

Fantastic speech by Grof btw, but Holotropic breathwork will only make a difference if the masses undergo such work for FREE, and considering that our God Cheney is working to traumatize humanity still further...one wonders how this will play out.

Consider that Cheney might have even had Israel in mind for A bombing  in August'07 making it appear that Iran did the dirty...giving the US cart blanche access to the Middle East Chessboard.
