Greetings for the New Year with the message from CT that captures vital aspects of our unflagging search for inclusive justice – Peter <peterchallen@gmail.com>
Water to life |
| Hi Peter, We are under constant attack from toxins in the atmosphere, the food chain and our water (bottled or from the tap). Detoxification regimes abound but we need to look no further than pure water to start the process.
PURE WATER – THE ILLUMINATI’S BIGGEST SECRET! (38 minute video) Our technological age encourages us to abandon what is natural and based on the wisdom of millennia and multiple civilisations – we’d be foolish to ignore ancient wisdom. THE DARK PLACES OF WISDOM Studying the past shows us where we went wrong to arrive at our dystopian present. Why Economics Needs Repentance, Not Reformation by COLIN MCKAY The causes of our current woes are not complicated. They arise from a system of control because we’ve abdicated responsibility for ourselves and each other. Hierarchy, theft of the commons and usury underpin our current political economy and, in combination, these three flaws drive abuse, oppression and the destruction of life. This understanding is not rocket science, nor is it new but stems from deep rooted human history. Fundamentally, we are social beings whose future relies on each other and human relationships are the most important foundations on which to build. The three flaws are designed to destroy and distort those relationships. Relationships are monetised within a framework of asymmetric power in which the few dominate. But they can only do so as long as we believe in their abusive, oppressive and destructive system. We now have a choice: to succumb to slavery or to live. Here’s to awakening in 2018 to a new realisation… none of the pain and suffering in the world is inevitable; it is caused by our belief in authority and this pernicious system. “Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place. Show respect to all people, but grovel to none. When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.” by Tecumseh (1768-1813) Shawnee Chief ——————————– Daily Pickings is a blog on issues and events related to the work of the Critical Thinking project and invariably references videos, articles, books and academic papers.
