Philip K. Dick was one of the most influential science fiction writers of the last hundred years -, and every summary of his life in any journal or media resource always uses the phrase 'had a troubled life.'
Well whether he really did or not I cannot say.
I know that a number of historical figures of great note - for instance the celebrated Italian sculptor of the 16th Century, Benvenuto Cellini - have lives peppered with 'incidents' involving essentially, violence... In the case of Cellini he was in the habit of carrying a dagger around with him and stabbing, although usually not to death so that their suffering would persist, anyone who sued him or in some way 'went against him' in society.
The Cellini salt cellar. It's a small thing - worth an estimated 60 million US dollars today. Was stolen from the Vienna Museum a few years ago but recovered in 2006. |
I am bringing these figures into our pages here because they are examples of some individuals who were very much verging onto, or at least, into, the coming future world.
Philip Dick described what he had somehow discovered, which was that our human world and its society, is not a chronologically linear one at all -, where a certain trajectory merely continues to its natural decline and conclusion. Like George Soros, Philip Dick realized that it was possible to bend and manipulate the obtaining trajectory of history that you were in, and send it off into some completely other direction.
Dick held that in fact it wasn't exactly a matter of world leaders simply bending anything by their own actions and will, but that there were multiple time lines all going on at the same real 'channel' - and he even initiated the phrase 'the Matrix' to describe it
He explained that he personally had had certain actual 'experiences' through which he was now 'recalling' things from his own future existence - and which was how he accounted for his creation of such works as what later became the movie 'Blade Runner' and also 'The Man In The High Castle.'

He said that he himself was not going to be among the actual first people who would be able to do these things with any real facility (because he was only doing it in a fragmentary way), and that there would be others, at a certain moment in the 'channel future,' who would be able to move with more facility in and out of a positive 'future' and by which process they would be able to 'jump' our erstwhile trajectory away from its extremely negative direction and onto the positive time line.
But he said that not everyone would be able to 'follow' or be positively affected, and that by and large, most people would fall back into a terminally degenerative time groove. And -, that there were active intelligent and highly negative, malicious people and forces intent on dragging as many people back into that nightmarish 'hole' as possible.
Interestingly, he literally quoted Saint Paul about 'going into future time' and 'stepping out of the present time and its baleful path.'
Philip Dick is interesting because he actually sets out what it is (or was) that allows people, certain people, to have better and easier lives...
Not linking to anything here yet. Because I don't want anyone here rushing off and buying this. It isn't necessary for you. But this thing has a free Crypto AI program in it which just goes off and makes money all by itself with zero risk and zero capital. Yes it does. Yes it does.
Sorry, but yes it does!
Sorry naysayers, but it actually does. And I have it. And that's the end of the matter. Don't argue - I too, like Cellini, have a dagger and more than just any old dagger.
And I'm not the only one around here that does.
We whip our daggers out and many people die. Or live on.
If you think I am joking in any way at all, you'd better go find that forty-odd minute speech by Philip K. Dick which is right now at least, still available on-line everywhere.
I know some of you might be thinking this place has turned a bit sinister, but not really.
We were hidden before, that's all. I told you all before - two slaughtered 185,000 Assyrian soldiers overnight; I told you that right here up front.
You keep going and we can keep going too. Right up to your front yard if necessary. Stop being an idiot. We are here.
