Second Line Filters

Now... Here's the point, or at least one important point regarding our friend Euthyphro: at the end of Plato's life (he 'disappeared' as you know, presumed drowned or dead or in any event lost at sea, when he took off in a row boat and rowed away until he was just a dot on the horizon, according to the reports. Now he had just raised enough money from the local businesses of Syracuse in Sicily, to have made two fairly large golden tablets to be used as cenotaphs, which he had with him in the row boat...).

And what's that point? Well the books start with a rich arrogant ambitious youth taking off as soon as he was challenged to consider truth and reality seriously, and it all ends with Plato taking off with the gold.

So at the very minimum, you all should have your ears pricked up with the talk of gold.

Remember 'the Maltese Falcon?' 'An admiral of pirates, chanced upon a bird made entirely of solid gold, and covered it in black paint to obscure its true value.'

What's to some extent quite astonishing to me, is that of all the hundreds or thousands of Oxford dons who claim to have gone to serious academic (and let's not forget the very word comes from Plato himself) institutions, and who will all tell you they have read these kinds of books - however, bearing in mind it was in fact my own grand uncle James Ward who bequeathed his private collection of the works of Plato to Oxford, and no one else... - they simply cannot have.

This is in Costa Rica - and some of these people are friends of mine, as in,
I know them well personally and they know me. You can go here if you have enough money - this is
one of these places the rich people go to. I have never been there myself. Shortly I'll show you another
place where I do go because it's in my neck of the woods. 

Because, you see, the secret of the golden tablets is in the very last book of Plato written before his disappearance, and which sets out something about the gold, and not to do with any physical location as to where to find it.

And no one ever, in modern recorded history, to my knowledge, has ever written about this - which leads me to suspect that many people might have read some parts of Plato, but more or less no one has, read and understood all of the books in their correct order from beginning to end - this fact of how to make real gold by the employment of true philosophy. It may be, in fact, that the medieval alchemists' search for the philosopher's stone, really was a series of attempts at procuring what Plato and his own teachers had laid down. Yet even so, you do get peculiar mixed-up versions of the basic idea every now and then via public figures backed by Oxford - like JK Rowling, for instance. Now there's a good example. They have some idea, except it's the wrong idea.

All the same, the standard historical narrative says that no one ever found the body of Plato after he took that rowing trip. And so, the logical facts are, my friends, that neither you nor anyone else knows what really happened and if you say anything that you think 'might' have happened it is pure speculation on your part. As well as on the part of any 'expert' who simply has no factual knowledge of what happened.

The kind of place and event where I more likely will be - but it's
the same thing, more or less...

However, you and I, those of us here who have been following closely all along, we know what did happen, don't we; don't you?

Oh yes you do. 

For one day, you too shall die. Or else, take a rowing trip away from prying eyes...

Going back to my friends the rich young things who put their hands up in the air, and gyrate in the relative darkness, with fluorescent paint all over themselves - it's quite hard to filter through the thousands of kids like this to get to those with the music deep in their souls.

Of the groups of rich people, most leave with some sense of 'self-development' or progress or whatever they want to say, and a tiny tiny percentage -, perhaps one, perhaps two, don't really leave at all. They row out, yes, but they don't leave.

The first of the 'second line filters' is the sine wave, or curve...

And the difficult to hear lyrics in the music below say: 'so I'll be a fleeting sound, a light-ray out on the waters...'

Don't forget, where the gold comes from. You want gold, right?

The 'First Line' Of Reality

Most people are stuck in the first line of reality - this is 'STEM' reality: Space, Time, Energy, Matter.

And in this obsessional condition, it is very easy to suppose that how one 'gains' is by continuously working on the rubric of 'getting the most X with the least Y.'


Everyone you meet, or at least nearly everyone, prides themselves that they are 'realistic' - and this is most especially so whenever you are talking with those with any interest in markets and investing, and ambition for material gain. You will get the standard, run-of-the-mill property and real estate experts, and then you will get the chartists and technical analysts in the stock market, and finally you will get the people interested in politics and of those quite a few these days will harbor conspiracy thinking of some kind or other. Why even the Democrats actually literally believe that 'the Russians, the Russians...'

All these people will very likely at some point tell you that the reason you are a failure is that you have not been realistic - like they are.

So in the last article we mentioned that Socrates expressed very strong reservations that the gods were either cruel or inconsistent. And yet even so, if we examine the Faust story perspective, we find a character drawn from the real historical Johann Faust the 16th Century alchemist, who becomes a dissatisfied intellectual and who then yearns for 'more than earthly meat and drink' in his life. So now we have two different things: an alchemist who has apparently discovered the philosopher's stone, and has material wealth, but who finds this unsatisfying; and the proposition of our friend Socrates, which is that the gods are not cruel! Well then, perhaps they might be so kind as to... You understand me. Either, we, or else they, should make up our minds! Do they want us to be satisfied? Or is there some problem with our approach to getting them to 'come across' as it were?

Psytrance gear

Now of course, especially in our present day and age, we can but hope to have 'material wealth' of this kind ourselves! We're kind of stuck with having to already offer our souls right away to even get close enough to Faust's position of genuine disillusionment. At the moment we are disillusioned because - as per the good example of Tao's recent comment - our plans for material leverage were messed around by egregiously ignorant fools running banks and governments, but yet who cling onto power because the gods give them licence...? I mean certainly, it's fair enough to say this has been one of the most amazing instances where 'karma' just plain has failed to deliver!! Where the gods who claim to support justice have gone to sleep for a good long time and forgotten their own words. Apparently.

But only though, if we insist on tarrying in the world of 'Space, Time, Energy, and Matter.'

What other things are there, than Space, Time, Energy, and Matter?

Recently, I have been engaging with a few people in a psyfamily. Do you know what that is? That is a kind of modern tribal thing, usually consisting of the kids - well I say kids but they might be forty years old(!), some of them - from horrendously wealthy parents in business and banking, French wineries and cognac chateaux, German and Dutch industrial concerns and trading houses; who spend most of their time in Costa Rica doing 'meditation' or going to California 'festivals' where they 'culturally appropriate' native tribal dress and so on, and crank up huge speaker boxes and sound systems, paint their faces with luminescent glitter paint, and raise their arms into the air pretty much all night long as far as I can tell whilst spinning in the axis of the eternal Universe, and being still at the core.

LOL

You can imagine how far I get with any Socrates and why even as lately as today, one of them somehow managed to mix up 'Euthyphro' with 'euphoria' quite easily.   

Meeting Ultra Advanced Intelligent Beings

Right. Buckle up.

LOL

You know this thing around nowadays: 'you have been lied to?' Usually they say it in the context of talking about history and especially all of this 'conspiracy/Rothschilds/Illuminati/whatever' stuff.

A friend here just recently asked 'why do things seem to be getting... (worse all the time)?'

Never mind that. Let me introduce you to, well, to something better.

Well I say 'introduce' but you may already be well aware of these things I am about to embark upon talking about.

Star Trek Borg 'Seven of Nine.' Has a romance with
Captain Janeway, as you will recall. And, why not.

Take that Star Trek idea about 'the Borg' - this huge collective consciousness entity made up of a composite of biological intelligence and very advanced technology. I don't say 'ultra advanced' but only 'very advanced.' I think there can be an 'ultra advanced' which maybe isn't as myopic as the Borg seem to be. All the same, one overarching attitude of certainly, the Borg - and I would suggest all super advanced intelligent groups - is a totally uncompromising attitude to what each regards as the most crucial ideas and objectives.

So with that in mind I'm going to take you to an area you might not have suspected that we should go. And I'm going to say to you that in days of yore, and among highly elite and secretive and also very learned people - to be truly 'educated' meant specifically ONLY ONE THING AND THAT ONE THING ONLY. Have I made it abundantly clear enough there??

There is one and one only order in which certain ancient books must be taught, in order for the person to ever be regarded among that secretive group of which I just now spoke, as having been truly and correctly educated.

The very first book and no other at all, is the Euthyphro. You won't have to read it because I am going to explain it to you here - but you can of course read it if you want.

Euthyphro, circa 2020AD, inherits his father's money after he
has the state banish him for 'impiety' and drives around the courthouse
in celebration.

Socrates is at the 'porch' outside the court of the Athenian chief magistrate, when he meets Euthyphro, a young Athenian with social and political ambitions which are quite naked to the aged Socrates.

"Oh, what are you doing here?" Euthyphro asks Socrates, seeming to be surprised to see him there.

"Well as you know, Euthyphro, there has been scandalous defacing of some of the sacred statues of the city, and it being presumed this was carried out by rebellious and wanton youth, some have thought me to be at fault for this seeing that I give instruction to certain of the kind of rich lawless youth and that some also do things that I tell them to and so I have now been charged as the one ultimately responsible and to blame.

"But you, Euthyphro - what are you doing here? I at least are here not of my own will."

"Oh well, Socrates, I am obliged to conduct myself with piety before the gods, and thus sadly, I have come to bring charges against my own father of murder or at best manslaughter seeing that he left his slave out in the open one cold night wherein the slave did perish from exposure."

Socrates then expresses some critical reservations about various ideas and beliefs of what the gods think that 'piety' actually is, and specifically voices great reservations over the divine accounts that emphasize the cruel and inconsistent behavior of the gods.

('cruel and inconsistent behavior.' Are you reading this and taking note of it?)

Next Socrates forces Euthyphro to face his own ignorance about what either piety is or what the gods are really like, if they even exist at all - which let me be plain here, and for your part try to resist the temptation to consort with ignorant modern commentaries; for Socrates absolutely does hold there are 'gods' albeit none that are at all like anything that is commonly supposed. A lot of modern academics, especially those out of Oxford and similar want to tell you that Socrates was an atheist - he was not an atheist; not even slightly.

But the point of Socrates' conceptions about 'the gods' and his consistent declaration that he in fact conversed with them, or more accurately, that they gave him advice... ...and it is what I am presenting also to you here and now, which is namely, that there is at least, a certain kind of uncompromising attitude among such ultra advanced beings. Not something myopic and self-interested like what the Star Trek Borg display, but necessarily uncompromising because once you get up to a level of intelligent sentience, there is no scope for such diametric intellectual opposition as would entertain fighting or argumentation or even disharmony among such 'people' on account it would prove devastating.

Some entirely 'other' place altogether; no 'Euthyphro's' here.

So my point is that in order to fully understand the world in which we live, and fully control our survival and life in it - it is absolutely vital without compromise that we possess every skill of sound logic first, and then next completely accurate and uncompromising knowledge of the very meanings of equity, and justice, and 'piety' (as such) or moral truth at least. And finally we have to possess some motive force explaining our own desire to continue to exist at all... You know, we need to understand, as in, really understand, 'the purpose and meaning of life.'

What happens next in the story about Euthyphro is that Socrates says to the ambitious man: 'do you wish to know and understand then, the true nature of the gods, and the real nature and existence of moral truth and equity and justice - for we can work on them here and now and discover what each of them are and then our actions will take on a different dimension...'

And Euthyphro says 'oh Socrates, look, the time has passed so quickly now and I must hasten away as I have all these important things to do as I have told you just now.'

The Ethical Apocalypse

The music video posted down below is not directly related to the actual subject matter of this post - other than that it is related albeit in a very complicated way...

The music below is modern, indeed it is quite avant garde. It is a treatment by Gareth Emery of something from BT called 'Godspeed' - and really, unless you are deeply interested in music theory and even the Platonic philosophy of musical harmony at its austere extreme end, it's pointless worrying too much about it here. A lot of young(-ish) people like this kind of music, and place it into the 'trance/dance' category.

Fair enough. They know more than they know...

People in high places get very very advanced warnings about things that might affect them and a couple of years ago now, the Russian opera singer Anna Netrebko had her production people cancel a range of performances all across the West, including in New York - and then the problems with the Ukraine unfolded in obvious ways, and eventually Donald Trump was elected the President of the United States and all of the problems with the Deep State's entwined relationship with the coup plotters in the Ukraine, came out. 

So you can see, people high up know about these things long before they get into the public arena.

Netrebko - who is far and away the greatest operatic soprano we have seen in a number of decades, and Ukrainian - has had an intense last year performing in Russia mainly, where she also sings the work of extremely modern classical composers on separate programs, alongside performing the major parts in the classical schedule across the year. 

The public in the West is not seeing this stage of her career - and this is the one, generally, where the greatest sopranos have their finest dramatic and romantic vocal and performing moments.

However the kind of thing to do with undermining art and culture is not confined to Western classical music and all of the politics that goes on there. In the East, it was not that long ago that one of the truly greatest composers in the Kavvali style Amjad Sabri was murdered by terrorists. These sort of things are deliberately covered-up on-line and you will find that even the Wiki entries on the Sabri Brothers contain not only thinly-veiled insults about them, but are written is such a way as to clog up the narrative with large amounts of extraneous details, and it takes some time to even 'see' any mention that they were under constant threat from terrorists and had survived many attacks until eventually several of their musicians had been murdered.

One of the greatest singers you are ever going to encounter, Ustaad Saami, lives not only under constant threat against his life, but he will, when he dies, quite possibly have the knowledge and style of his singing die with him in a practical active living sense; music academics might be able to 'resurrect' the musical science behind his particular style of 'khayal' singing, which involves detailed musical notation of micro-notes and expanded scales.

So what does any of this have to do with anything?

After all, you can't build a house with a song, right...

The concept of an 'ethical Apocalypse' is that people really don't want to suddenly be uprooted from their lives and taken to some completely different form of living, some different lifestyle, just because the one they were living in is based on some false and flawed premise. And therefore the 'unveiling' of truth and authentic reality must happen in such a way as not to harm people's feelings.

And when you examine people's real lives and the outlooks that they all have, they don't want radical change - only so much change as would give them both a sense of self-power (over the material world) and some marginally greater wealth than they mostly all have. There's poverty of course, but you know what, even those people don't want you to change what they possess that is already theirs. That they believe is theirs, is who they are.

Super advanced ethical aliens cannot come to this planet and tell you what you don't want to hear or to know. And so they're not going to.

However you, who read here, are in a slightly different category.

Keep your eyes, on the skies.

  

Stranger Things Than You Know, But

...you can know; because, for one thing - you are here.

I suppose for those ordinary ordinary ordinary souls, the poor things, they know there is some kind of conspiracy, but they just can't seem to get on the inside of it.

Is that you? I hope not.

'Ichor' is a fluid that runs through the veins of divine beings,
and it is toxic, indeed deadly, to mortal humans.

You know the biggest mistake that Christians who think they are following the Bible make, is that they know the passages about the Seraphim who sing before the Throne of God, but they seem to forget what the Apocalypse also says...

The first encounter we have, as humans reading from the reports in the compilations of 'sacred books' is that these fiery shining beings sing the following: 'Holy Holy Holy is the Lord God Most High - the Earth is filled with His Glory, Hosanna in the Highest.' And this is pretty much the same as the infamous Sumerian account of the Annunaki, or some of them, at least.

There are other accounts - fundamental Greek mythology has some stories about them, but in the Christian tradition, it comes from the Book of Enoch - that introduce another species described as the 'Khalkydrai' - also bright shining, beings of fiery brass, that are in some kind of way 'serpentine...' And these associate with the primary 'Seraphim' who are the closest beings to some kind of Supreme Throne or 'Command Center of the Whole Universe.' 

Seraphim mess around with fire and burning coals a lot - and the Biblical account has them conduct ritual purification, apparently, by touching the lips of the prophet Isaiah with a live coal from the altar...! I dunno - can that be really physically true? Have you ever tried to touch your own lips with a live burning coal?? Ill-advised, I would have thought.

Okay so on to the Apocalypse.

'A new song was heard around the Throne of the Living God.'

A 'Saraph' (singular) covers their face usually because they are frighteningly good-looking, no joke. 

This is just a trance club artist with their make-up...
It's fun, it's no big deal. Nothing at all what a 'Saraph' looks like.
And I mean that.

Don't worry. They're not going to hurt you.

You know, if you watch a lot of YouTube videos on anything even close to this subject, you will always end up with the same old challenge that people always have - which is: 'prove it.' Everybody wants to say it, even if they don't actually say it.

LOL

Close your eyes. Get very drunk. Listen to the music. Think about the meaning of life. Tell me what happens to you next.

Did you get any messages?

D'you wanna buy gold yet?

Let go. Let it go; your daylight mind is not going to serve you at this time. Get very drunk. And listen. Open your mind. Search for the love.
