To Be, or Not to Be...

"Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is."

 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Artemis

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages...

William Shakespeare's As You Like It, spoken by the melancholy Jaques in Act II Scene VII.

In principle, God created the principles and the cycles of the Universe and the Earth: In principle, Phtahmer , High Priest of Memphis and creator-god of the universe through thought and verb.

Just look around; you see the Attentional Bell Curve (the cycle of material Life) and the Zodiac: the measure of changing consciousness and the life cycles of consciousness (race).

I accept the Theory of Thermodynamics, and its Entropy of the 2nd. Law - it strikes me as practical and observable, in simple terms; then, I am just a simple person, at heart.

I accept "Critical Mass"

I accept Chaos Theory.

So, simply put: Cycles demand "stability leads to instability": as shown clearly in Thermodynamics. 63/64ths. of the eye of Horus.

In terms of "Economics" - whatever they are, or whatever, "they" do, I totally reject the theories of such blind faith for the personal convenience of bankers, economists, bureaucrats and politicians as well as all that hangs off them.!

I like the evocations of "mentromes" and I like to inferences of synchronization and I add, the mere absolute simplicity necessary for initial conditions to produce Life's complexity.

I also accept that the Principle of Cycles also demands the cycle:

simplicity ---> complexity ---> symbolic simplicity ---> higher complexity and so forth.

Just as I accept: Intelligence ---> Intellect ---> Intelligence as an alternating cycle.

All men are not created equal. To say otherwise is ludicrous. The hand of marriage of Man.

"It is a strange desire, to seek power, and to lose liberty; or to seek power over others, and to lose power over a man's self." 
Francis Bacon 

I also posit that "technology" is what all life does or engages in; seals use technology as do monkeys, mites, plants, rats and is the very foundation of biological evolution, where, and please note:

That man the unaccomplished, a biological mammalian phenomena and - more importantly to note, a Principle, through Mind and Consciousness, has the probability and possibility of "Intellect" - subject to circumstances, both objective and subjective, which can lead to a higher organism of life. This higher organism is Man the Accomplished, the Effect of the Prime Cause unknown and perhaps, unknowable.

In other words,  "stability and instability" are interchangeable with "coherent and incoherent" both merely being measure between the life processes of Cause and Effect, in principle.

Why the USA and the West in general is in a state of total meltdown: This also includes the larger parasitical organizations known as the TBTF Banks and all other such organizations.

I propose as my alternative theory for the state of impending USA collapse, or the collapse of the West, the well known Theory of Thermodynamics. I offer a brief outline so as not to bore but detailed enough for those interested to research and to consider my conclusions, as they arrive at their own conclusions.

Erwin Schrödinger became involved in Thermodynamics, biology, life and complexity of energetic systems before his escape from Hitler and his move to Ireland. The clues are to be derived from Entropy, a term nobody really understands, but all ignore, as if they do. Obviously, the 'collective' comprise energy units known as people, and collectives can be considered complexities which make up Nations. A Nation is a super-collective and all can be considered organizations as well as being considered organisms (life). Man is a super molecule.

Normally organizations or organisms escape the Second Law, that is, Maximum Entropy which says that in closed systems, organisms are attracted to equilibrium, otherwise known as, in the case of life systems, "thermodynamic equilibrium" or better "maximum entropy". An organization or organism which is dead or has become inert, failed, lifeless, inanimate has reached this state of maximum entropy. But, life is different as they exist in open systems; organizations/organisms in open systems can escape this state of maximum entropy, and they do by feeding on "free energy", aka negative entropy and or exergy, so that their pollutants or exports are minimized in comparison. Input > output. But the game must, a priori, continue in this contango; or dance of the devil, ad infinituum. Hence the US is / has been increasing its entropy to delay the day of it's reckoning of maximum entropy, by feeding on outside of its own borders, exogenously , on 'free energy', negative entropy or 'exergy', or that which belongs to others.

The USA does not use diplomacy; the USA uses might and war as well as destruction, manipulation, and genocide as well as a full toolbox of creative but forceful destruction, etc., to extend its life expectations to acquire its necessary 'free energy' or 'exergy'. I believe that these resources are coming to an end, one way or another, but nevertheless, when this 'free energy' is not longer available to the USA, that organization will meet its maximum entropy moment. The USA is hell bent on Empire and Global Communism; a Trotskyite wet dream bent on destruction of all in its path and which in terms of physics, its own eventual self-destruction. Welcome to the Trotskyite Policy for the New American Century (PNAC).

I believe Hymen Minsky stumbled unknowingly, but briefly, upon Thermodynamics when he stated and I paraphrase, 'stability leads to instability'. Damned right, but this fact was well known long before he came on the scene and, of more important note, he has been almost totally ignored by the Economist Elite of the World, that lot that appear to be driving our contemporaneous holocaust du jour, who just might ensure that maximum entropy is achieved so much sooner than later. And, which promises to be horrific. Does it need to be so? Margaret Thatcher of Mad Cow disease fame said that there was no alternative; Really?

However, saying all this, allow me to add - hopefully as further stimulation, as organisms are attracted to the boredom of the linear gradients, which leads them into the oblivion of maximum entropy, in open systems they appear to naturally swerve just before that moment of truth, 'The Lucretian Swerve', to begin feeding in fields 'on the other side of the fence, on foreign /alien, exogenous 'free energy', exergy, just as the looting bands of feudal wannabe war lords and tyrants of days gone by and yore. There is a natural driving force here that is being ignored. Not by Schrödinger et al, but certainly by those who call themselves the "leadership elite". "Critical Mass" - natural justice, natural physics, an intelligent planet - is the "finger of God" that trigger entropy until Chaos rules supreme. Is this the "Invisible Hand" of Adam Smith, or the Golden Section of evolution itself, the Golden Mean of Cultural evolution? Such things are Principles; Cause and Effect, they occur/ are occurring constantly; why don't we see them?; why does science ignore them? Why don't we validate them, after all, this information has been around in the public domain for around 3,000 years, or more I suspect. Wash and Rinse; the new cycle, a new cycle, new Era and or new Epoch; it begins, albeit again. Initial conditions need only the most simple of numbers to commit to high complexity. For the record, the emergence of life is a constant and is the Principle of the Present Moment.

There is a vast difference between closed and open systems and any one such system may be the cognitive preference of the reader. But I propose that each system of life is neither an open nor closed system but a leaking capacitor with potential as super-capacitor. This fact alone suggests that every collective of life forms, organisms, organizations, nations or whatever, have the capacity to morph life on Earth into something wondrous and magnificent, in a complete contrast to the killing, thieving domination of the political and banker driven organized crime system which we have imposed on us today. 

Dr. Alvin Boyd Kuhn writes in The Great Myth of the Sun Gods, "Dr. George W. Crile, of the Cleveland Laboratories, which practically fixed the seal of truth upon every word we have uttered or shall utter in this lecture. It was most startlingly corroborative of our exegesis. He announced that he had discovered at the heart of every living organism a tiny nucleus of energy, all aglow, with temperatures ranging from 3000 to 6000 degrees of heat, which he called "radiogens" or "hot points." These, he said, were precisely akin to the radiant energy of solar matter. He affirmed, in short, that a tiny particle of the sun's power and radiance was lodged within the heart of every organic unit!" and yet, well before Kuhn, Proclus, last of the Great Platonist's can still be heard saying: "The light of the sun is the pure energy of intellect." The light and energy that has life. The "King of Glory" indeed.

This planet has limited material resources except in the one instance which we chose to ignore; Man as a Super Super-Capacitor is the planet's greatest potential resource, if given the opportunity of the "accomplishment". For this we must look deeper, to the written legacy of giants or Nephilim upon whose shoulders I write this little missive.

"Men naturally rebel against the injustice of which they are victims. Thus, when plunder is organized by law for the profit of those who make the law, all the plundered classes try somehow to enter -- by peaceful or revolutionary means -- into the making of laws. According to their degree of enlightenment, these plundered classes may propose one of two entirely different purposes when they attempt to attain political power: Either they may wish to stop lawful plunder, or they may wish to share in it."

-- Frederic Bastiat

And, Entropy is interesting as it marks that precise point when the cycle is about to begin its change; the end of the input of Attentional reason; all cycles in fact, It should be said to be Kali, the terrifying Goddess of Destruction and re-Birth, Lord of Death, Goddess of **time and Change, Redeemer of the Universe and benevolent Mother Goddess. As all ancient Gods are anthropomorphisms of Natural Principles and forces.

And, Entropy appears to be triggered by the "Status Quo", you know, that state of boredom of the statists where humanity's elite, such as our bankers, economists (sic), bureaucrats and politicians dream of so that they can continue to recursively scam the whole system and impose their ignorance on we, the unwashed, for their greater enjoyment, lust and profit. There is a lesson here! Will we never learn from the ancients and accept and or come to the realization that the Gods of times ancient, still rule supreme today, even if we think that it's smart to get a PhD that intentionally ignores their presence, a priori?

So, "Critical Mass" marks the moment of change; it is the trigger of the Entropic moment which destroys the milieu of the norm and creates or welcomes Chaos to change the scene as in the Shakespearean play of As You Like It. Why? Well, in principle, the Gods get bored, is the answer, and so do I. In fact, both are facts. Enter stage left: Kali, the Destroyer.

We need to morph "faith and superstition" into Science, after science has been returned to its fundamental objectivity, and integrity, that is; as it was >~3,000 years ago, more or less!

We are not in control: Those in power want to hold the "status quo", that is to say, the existing social US structure and organization of Circa 2000? "They", the controlling "elite" like their life styles and see every reason to keep the static system of "status quo" intact even if this means murdering every man woman and child in their way and stealing every resource of the face of the planet and beyond. The "unwashed" are to be disenfranchised so as to maintain the "elite". This, in terms of physics, is not viable; it is utter ignorance and madness and, invalid at any level. Yet, it has been tried before, many times. But, they are also not in control, either. The principle of Critical Mass is in control.

There can be no "status quo" as life is a dynamic. Get your mind wrapped around this. Everything changes... Do not mistake Technology for Science as they are both of different Minds and Milieux, and the latter, being fertile for accomplishment. 

William Shakespeare - To be, or not to be 

Hamlet 3/1

To be, or not to be: that is the question:

Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer

The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,

And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;

No more; and by a sleep to say we end

The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks

That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;

To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;

For in that sleep of death what dreams may come

When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,

Must give us pause: there's the respect

That makes calamity of so long life;

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,

The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,

The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,

The insolence of office and the spurns

That patient merit of the unworthy takes,

When he himself might his quietus make

With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,

To grunt and sweat under a weary life,

But that the dread of something after death,

The undiscover'd country from whose bourn

No traveller returns, puzzles the will

And makes us rather bear those ills we have

Than fly to others that we know not of?

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;

And thus the native hue of resolution

Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,

And enterprises of great pith and moment

With this regard their currents turn awry,

And lose the name of action. - Soft you now!

The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons

Be all my sins remember'd.

"A State which dwarfs its men, in order that

they may be more docile instruments in its hands --

even for beneficial purposes -- will find that

with small men no great thing can really be accomplished."

-- John Stuart Mill

(1806-1873) English philosopher and economist

In clarification, perhaps...

I have written that it is a matter of maximum entropy which has been reached, particularly with the USA. As the global affairs are commensurate with that of an 'open system', but now more nearing a 'closed system' the USA is in a panic to offset its impending state 'thermodynamic equilibrium', which is its demise, by flaying and striking out to frack the World through desperate and destructive aggression so that resources that do not ordinarily belong to the USA, can be broken up, scavenged, stolen and controlled. It's survival depends on this activity in fact, to be successful whilst under the current mindset of its "leadership".

This "leadership" is not in control. 'Critical Mass' is now, and has been for some years, in control and the USA is unknowingly now feeding on itself - as all the Western Nations. The sovereign intelligentsia mindset represented by Western governments caused this crisis; Where this same intelligentsia is not of the caliber to solve the crisis. The end is just becoming more visible  but there are none so blind as those who will not see.

Looking ahead to Biden's inspired (sic) "New World Order", the theory of Entropic Thermodynamics clearly predicts that a single World order headed by the Western (USA) mindset of today, will destroy the World; it will burn the center.This is Entropy at work; a Universal Principle.

One must ask just what represents today's global "leadership" and the answer is clearly and indisputably, the highest Order of the Banking and Finance System. Is is not startling clear that this "leadership sector is ingesting all the World's resources, which includes all assets, productivity, commodities, monetary fiat, etc? This is "negative entropy", "free energy", or "exergy" that is being sacrificed to the altar of the Banking Gods. This is the end because it is finite - under this mindset regime of limited and barbarian "leadership". And they want it all and I say, that all will not be enough.

Look at the state of corruption of the US "leadership" today. Look at the vile and utter complete corruption of the EU leadership and the rest of the Western World of sovereign bankrupts. This is nought but self cannibalism - this is eating yourself from the inside out. The West has become cancerous. The question is, just how long before all the patients in the hospital die - of cancer.

"Leadership" is not in control. Natural forces are in control.

The Goddess Kali is in control.
