“Doomed Flowers Fading, Falling and Endlessly Composting the Ground for their Next Brief Waving About in the Wind.”

Reflections in a Petri Dish – Oct 23, 2020
Dog Poet Transmitting…….
I can’t remember how it was that I arrived at the name, Mr. Apocalypse. I had to study myself and my tendencies to see if it might have been something I came up with or something I was told. Thinking about it; it’s not my nature to invent terms for people or forces, unless I’m writing a novel, or engaging in literary descriptives in some shorter affair, like this. It seems like I was told the name but I can’t remember the scene where it happened. I remember the name coming up frequently during the time I was engaged in conversation with the force and it had a personality to it that was distinctive.
I’m not sure it matters how the name came to me. I’ve no question in my mind about the existence of the character. Since that period when I had several interactions, there haven’t been any new engagements. That is possibly because I haven’t taken any Ayahuasca or other psychedelics in some time. When I do… everything becomes incredibly animated and I am resident on planes that are not accessible (so far) to me in my every day walking around consciousness. He has slipped into my mind briefly, now and again, to say something like, “I told you that was going to happen.” Sometimes I get warnings that something really big is on the horizon BUT… so far, I haven’t seen it taking place. The Left Coast Earthquake p-e-n-d-i-n-g shows up almost every day. Thinking about it, I went on an internet voyage and discovered this. What is odd about it are his descriptions of a future time and some of it is very accurate. He couldn’t have known about any of that.
Some years ago, I had a dream. It wasn’t anything like his BUT… it had the very same stillness feature and absence of birds and other sounds of Nature. It was a literal expression of that humorous trope, “It’s quiet.. too quiet.” As far as I have discovered, it first showed up in that film, “Drums Along the Mohawk.” That is what he describes; a kind of quiet that is more than quiet and I had the EXACT same sensation at the time. In the brief time between my sensing that something very wrong was about to happen, I remember feeling this sense of suspended awe. Then the ground began to move violently under my feet. So intense was the experience that I woke up.
Lao Tzu talks about those times when everything is about to go belly up. It starts when people are collectively aware of who their leader is. In the best of situations, they hardly know he exists. As the society degenerates, they obey and acclaim him. As it gets worse, they fear and despise him. Finally, they ridicule and mock him. The last is where we presently find ourselves. Few realize how close we are to chaos and disorder. We are on the doorstep. It doesn’t have to go that way and there are illumined souls, singly, and in groups who are working to prevent this. From the higher planes where Shamballah resides… to the realized and incarnate yogis of the Himalayas, they are working on our behalf.
The problem is that we are in a time of great Material Darkness and as a result, the INFERNAL forces and their dedicated servants have become emboldened, and they have the MOST OPPORTUNE climate to operate in; religions are crumbling, degenerate behavior is celebrated, the youth are without direction or vision, art has become banal, uninspired, and perverse, the leaders are corrupt and the general atmosphere is about material acquisition, no matter what means are used. Moral Relativism is in the ascendant. From the schools of higher learning to every area of medicine, dangerous trends are in motion. It is NOT a pretty picture. The biggest problem, and which serves the interests of the infernal realm, is that humanity has been brought to a stage where their appetites shape their values.
We have not arrived, en masse, to this stage by accident. It is a tale told in increments, a step by step procedure you see. At the beginning, and at every point along the way, we walked here in a dream. It is a dream orchestrated by those with a HEAVY investment in the outcome. The situation is that there is more than one outcome and this is where The Divine comes into play. I’ve mentioned this before but, I suspect it does not completely convince, due to all of the previous influences so many of us have been subject to. First, there is KARMA, which reaches back incalculable distances in some cases, and far less in others. There are old souls and new souls. At least I have been told so by authorities far more informed than myself. Then there are those forces we have all encountered in this incarnation; parents, relatives, friends and enemies, the education system, the culture we grew up in, and sundry agencies that have had a hand in shaping our present mindset.
As I said, I’ve mentioned what I am about to say several times; there is ONLY ONE ORIGIN of All Force and All Life. There is more than one way to identify it, and our identification depends on whether our perspective is CARNAL or otherwise. At the carnal level, this origin of force is a horned figure, and the relationship is one of bondage. This can be clearly seen in the world around you, IF… you are not CARNAL. I should distinguish here between those human practices that are a normal function of life and a point of view concerning them that is of a lower order. Sex is not bad. It is the point of view that renders it good or bad, and good or bad, for the purpose of this discourse can be defined by whether it BINDS you or not. In Times of Material Darkness, it is most likely to be binding.
We are ALL serving this Origin of All Force, ONE WAY or ANOTHER and we are either in some stage of bondage or some stage of freedom. There are some who are totally free and some that are totally bound BUT NO MATTER WHAT, you are in some relationship to this force and that relationship is forged by intention.
This has been another roundabout journey to get back to what I originally intended to speak about. These forces out of the Infernal Realm are engaged in the same pursuits as those of the Supernal Realm and that is The Harvesting of Souls. It also involves influencing the routine behaviors engaged in, and the directions taken, by anyone susceptible to the encouragements, given by the workers from the different Areas of Enterprise. Between them stands YOU. You can go either way. It is up to you. Life is an elevator. You are either going up… or down. Again we post the Shankara comment: “These three are difficult to obtain in this world and depend on the mercy of the gods- the human birth, the desire for salvation and the company of the great-souled ones.”
Many people have read that comment. What might they have thought of it? What does that mean. “the human birth”? It seems the writer is implying it is rare. You take the shape best suited to act out your desires and exercise your appetites. The life form moves in one of two directions, toward freedom or bondage. You can see this in life everywhere. You can ALSO see that there is more freedom, GENERALLY, at certain times in a life. It might be appropriate at this time to mention that FORM is a FORM of Bondage.
I started out writing this because of my reflections on Mr. Apocalypse and what I see happening on the world stage, collectively and individually, among the known personas and the unknown. It is glaringly evident to me that many people (especially among the celebrities of the time) are being driven crazy and they are acting out accordingly. On the other hand, some number of us are awakening and becoming saner. We are starting to see what is worth having and what is not, OR… the wall of denial grows ever denser, higher, and wider. ♫So high, you can’t get over it. So wide, you can’t get around it♫
It doesn’t seem to matter how poised or aware one might be; difficulties and the force for change, appear in a regular fashion. We are all met with common obstacles. What varies with each of us is how we react. As I study life… and I do this FULL TIME, it becomes ever more and more clear to me that our reactions are one of the major definers of us. Our intentions are the other major definer. Everything we encounter and where we find ourselves afterward has to do with our reactions and our intentions. Reactions and Intentions are also what BINDS and FREES us. The nature of this is simple. The ramifications are too complex for even a library of books. If ONLY we did not react before reflecting on the outcome. If only our intentions were a reflection of the Kingdom of Heaven.
This reminds me of an odd reality that stands in defiance of the equal and opposite reaction schema. It can take a lifetime to construct and an afternoon to destroy. Whether it is the reputation of a life, any of its relationships, the creative output, or any of the areas of our existence we have invested in. It can take a long time to acquire or construct. It can even take lifetimes to arrive at …and it can ALL go South in a hard, hot hurry.
We are all some variation on a chemist in a lab. Some things mix well together and some combust. This and many another permutation we discover in our experimenting. You WILL become the product of the one you emulate and fashion yourself after in The Crucible of Experience. Sometimes you arrive at it (or it seems like it). Sometimes it is revealed in the process. This seems to me to be the most important question anyone can ask; “Who am I following and where does it lead?” There is a reason that all the terminology of alchemists has the flavor of a lab.
I may need to find another form or medium of expression. I seem to be running out of ways to say the same thing differently; maybe another approach, maybe another area of inquiry in this wide, wide landscape of enterprise.
One thing I am almost confident enough about to say, I KNOW, is… I know that on the other side of this election, conditions on the ground are going to be very changed, no matter which way it goes. If the worst happens, this may not be the place to be. Then again, given that the darkness has now covered the world, where is there the greatest possibility that the light will break through? Of course, the answer is, WITHIN YOU and IF (and I am pretty sure it is not IF) that is the case, it doesn’t matter where you are. It matters who you serve and since… who you serve, no matter who it is, is only another form of the same thing… it comes down to what you are comfortable with. They both have advantages; one in the short term and the other in the long.
It can be said, and decidedly so… that the spiritual implications are VASTLY different, depending on how you SEE the one you serve and… I am certain, you will have to serve something or someone. You can ONLY become free of that by going through all of the stations on the road to freedom. Ironically, those who get the point from a particular perspective, no longer want to be free of their service, once certain realities dawn on them. One can’t discuss much of this in this medium. This medium ONLY applies within a certain bandwidth, between certain parameters. At some point, you go through a door, aperture, portal, or the bathroom window and the door closes behind you… forevermore. If ever you return, it will be in a greatly changed persona.
Otherwise… there is all the scrambling that goes on down here, for what seems like forever, or until the curtain comes down for a time (and it will) BUT… then the curtain comes up again. I can honestly say, I want no further part of any of this. I’m not from here and I’ve never been as sanguine about the routes and objectives as so many others are. My heart and mind have never been on this field of play, among all these doomed flowers, endlessly composting the ground for their next brief waving about. I see through it. I can NEVER be deceived again. God be with you all.
End Transmission…….
There should be a new Discourse from The First Church of the Presence of God sometime today. You will find the others and the most recent one here.
Please continue to (or start to) Follow and comment at GAB. It helps to get this message out. Though, whether that is a good idea is for each to individually assess. In any case, you would have to go here to do so.
Pocketnet should be jumping today after the debate, which was remarkable for what it revealed. If you are curious, you need to click here.

“We are ALL serving this Origin of All Force, ONE WAY or ANOTHER and we are either in some stage of bondage or some stage of freedom.

Some Hindus and Buddhists castrate themselves, would you consider them as “free”? After all they are free from such concerns!
(https://devdutt.com/articles/castrated-for-god/)
Now in contrast consider a man who has enormous sexual power, however he has mountain of a willpower and so has a controlling leash on his sexual primal beast. he does need to delete the equation.
In this example we can differentiate between Power and Freedom, Willpower and Freewill. There is something wrong with the idea that God has created man in such a way that he has to fundamentally alter his own nature, like a “surgical change”… in order to advance and grow! A “divine bug” or a flaw put in place by God himself! Such a God already looses some of the main defining attributes that any monotheists would agree with.
A powerful man/woman still can reproduce and leave a generation and progeny which is indeed part of the divine wisdom behind sexuality. In contrast the castrated man/woman can’t have children of his/her own. One of the problems with Hindu’s way of thinking is that they see all forms of memory (Karma) as bad. Whose children should inherit the Earth!? To strive to abolish all forms of memory, good (beneficial) or bad (harmful). Gurus openly say that one should preferably run away from Karma… so not to be tainted or affected by such accumulated memories! One of the things pro Karma people usually avoid is the idea of “collective karma”. In their view, human has no responsibility towards “collective karma” in his own family or society.
Les Visible’s belief-system according to himself is based on Karma and Reincarnation. And his invisible friends that speak to him are not Djinns, he is sure of it!
According to Bible, bastards won’t inherit the Kingdom of God even after the 10th generation! Should a good Christian then castrate himself? Most of the time Freedom is synonymous with weakness and lack of responsibility. So most of the world “waste their seeds” while a great part of the believers in God castrate themselves… all in favor of Satan and his children!
Freedom is the Satan’s slogan; before explaining why, first you should be aware of a true story: As Djinn worship was rampant during Solomon’s time, by divine intervention King Solomon enslaved Djinns and used them as masons to build magnificent structures similar to those built before by Pharaoh and others, this time in the service of God, such as what is now known as the Temple (in ruins). After Solomon’s natural death, Djinns were freed and became “Free Masons”, Satan himself being the Chief Djinn hid tomes of forbidden knowledge (stuff that helps you contact the Djinn) under the Solomon’s temple to … later Knights Templar discovered those tomes and the rest of the story is clear. Although there are various other factions and cults that have dealt with Djinns throughout history.
Between Freedom and Power you should always choose Power and God is the ultimate absolute power, because Satan was rejected he can never have enough power, so his best way to mislead humanity is to fool them into seeking freedom rather than power, just like himself! One way to do this is to mess up languages, create mental idols in the form of misleading and confusing terms/words, and attack concepts that are divine. Control over language is extremely important for him to hide the truth. Another way is through prophecy and dream business.
A truly free will is indeed a powerful will. We are constantly under the attractive influences of things that are very near to us and to seek anything greater beyond these immediate attractions we need willpower. Why would you willingly expose yourself to more and more unnecessary and distracting attractive forces?! When you seek a higher goal you should focus on that, freedom doesn’t mean anything here you have to avoid depleting and wasting what power you have and increase it. You don’t buildup freedom you buildup power. In our example castration “frees” you but doesn’t empower you. Your will still is weak. One of the best available forces to practice and build up our will is indeed sexual force. Those who have deleted their sexual force are free from it but also still carry their same weak will! If God wanted freewill rather than willpower from us why did he gave us such a powerful sexual force that serves multiple purposes?!
In Islam it is clear, neither indulge in sexual desire so freely like a beast, nor delete it completely. Instead control your gaze… control what you “see” and what you “reveal”.
Can you define freewill under the influence of multiple attractive forces? One can die and truly become free, however life is such that we are constantly under the influence of multiple attractive forces and by extension “choices”, the higher more valuable attractive forces are further ahead so to escape and reach out one only needs willpower!

like they say, you ‘gotta serve somebody’…

In my Taoist scheme, formulated between 1987 and 2017, birth and death are the tenth level of yin and yang, mediated by life, book-ended by extinction and soul, and materialism is simply the tendency of death. This is one level of sixteen lived by us. All levels are the same story but with a different and preserved position.
The mystical, the experiential, karma, reincarnation, all Eastern religions are Satan’s deceitful ” Mystery Babylon. ” When Christ said the Kingdom lies within, he wasn’t referring to the practise of meditation, chanting or other such things. He meant your inner conscience, which God gave us. It’s much more difficult being a true Christian, than becoming an introspective Buddhist or Hindu, and achieving nada for their fellow human beings e.g. the caste system in India being a perfect illustration. Matthew 24, Revelation 13 will tell you where we are heading. Sorry Les, you’re a genuine guy, that is obvious, but you’re up a blind alley. Have no fear, JC is on His way back to rescue good people like you. He won’t be impressed when he confronts Hindus who fatten up their sacred cows and let children starve.
How about an “earthquake” of a musician? The late and most definitely great, Allan Holdsworth. The genius guitarist whom Eddie Van Halen looked up to, who also died penniless in 2017. Van Halen said, “what takes me two hands to do, Allan does with one.” He’s referring to Holdsworth’s liquid and cascading lines that Van Halen would emulate via two-handed tapping on the fretboard. Talk about a ‘left hand path.’
The college student that transcribed the following solo from ‘Devil Take the Hindmost’, acquired scurvy in the process of slaying this dragon to paper. Sleeplessness, malnutrition, and bleeding gums.
HERE is the TRUE guitar “revolutionary”…Mr Allan Holdsworth.

“As I said, I’ve mentioned what I am about to say several times; there is ONLY ONE ORIGIN of All Force and All Life. There is more than one way to identify it, and our identification depends on whether our perspective is CARNAL or otherwise. At the carnal level, this origin of force is a horned figure, and the relationship is one of bondage. This can be clearly seen in the world around you, IF… you are not CARNAL.

It is the point of view that renders it good or bad, and good or bad, for the purpose of this discourse can be defined by whether it BINDS you or not. In Times of Material Darkness, it is most likely to be binding.”
> I tried to simplify the Power VS Freedom and Willpower VS Freewill in the previous comment and the Sexual Force indeed was a good example.
As we have discussed before the core function of human soul is See and Seek, both are interconnected.
1- See:
The domain of logic/reasoning and the main pitfall associated to it is Duality
2- Seek:
The domain of power/love and the main pitfall associated to it is Freedom
Purity and intensity of intention is based on the sum of these two. We are always under the influence of attractive forces and we seek what is most attracting to us at any given moment. Can anyone make sense of freedom between multiple attractive forces?! Please note by extension we are referring to choices that we have to make, we move towards one and we loose some others. We are rarely presented with a choice between something bad and something good. Imagine someone present you with shit on one hand and chocolate on the other to choose one, you’d feel no resistance at all in choosing the chocolate or not-choosing the shit! This is why wise men say hell is hot enough and only using your senses you should not end up in hell and we are created to choose the better and the best among good things, this is the purpose of Logic, we don’t need logic to choose between bad and good, we need it to choose between good and better. Imagine you don’t go to hell and say to God: “Lord! I didn’t eat shit, please reward me!”
So a choice is hard only when we are presented with multiple good things. It becomes harder when we have to choose between a good thing available now and a much better thing available later!
As kids, we have weak willpower and are facing many strong nearby attractive forces. So if we become slave of them we have little choice. As we grow and hopefully develop willpower, we can go beyond those strong nearby forces and seek greater things, ultimately seek God. When you love/seek something you become slave of it. This has a binding effect.
“Your value is equal to the value of what you seek!” Ali ع
Now the question that arises is: Which side has the binding hook end!? Are we throwing our hook and drag ourselves towards what we seek/love/like or is it the other way around and the attractive force drags us?! Could it be both ways? It is clear that God being the ultimate attractive force does not want to drag us by force! So even though he is closer to us than our jugular vein, he is hidden to us and in a way we are very far from him. The lure of the temporal material world is different though, it is so evident and close, it is presenting and inviting with many hooks to grab the weak willed. It is now clear that a free man is a prey. Free from what, from a strong binding love that can take him far, or free to choose the immediate rather than the better? The whole thing is about power and binding.
What we like/seek can be in 3 categories:
1- The things that we like but don’t have. (i.e. latest car)
2- The things that we like and have, but they will be taken away from us. (i.e. getting old)
3- The things that we like and should not touch!
The first two are easy to understand, the third one can be easily understood by Logic of Pleasure with the following principles:
1- Only personal pleasure matters and every individual wants pleasure! : )
2- We should constantly identify, seek and strive for highest pleasures! : )
3- We should sacrifice lower pleasures for higher pleasures “if” they conflict. : (
The third principle ruins it for most people, this is where things get complicated! That third rule ultimately wants to make a warrior out of you. We may have to do hard work and sweat in order to achieve higher pleasures. In fact sometimes we have to pay upfront and rip the rewards much later! The motto “no pain no gain!” So we understand “the things that we like and we should not touch” part; a father tells his son, don’t eat so much marshmallows because in just 15 minutes the Kebab will be ready!!
Having established our relationship with the temporal world and having recognized the reality of our choices it becomes clear that what we need is Power and Willpower rather than Freedom and Freewill.
Just think about it for a moment, how ridiculous it is when one say “I seek Freedom” while being affected and among multiple gravitational and forces of attractions! We need willpower to navigate through all the nice and dazzling things nearby beckoning in order to seek greater things further ahead that are not in sight immediately!
The awesome psychological test that was done with kids:
They told kids that if they don’t touch the tasty chocolate in front of them for 20 minutes or so then they will be given an awesome gift! Most kids failed the test… only those that “look away” are successful! Interestingly many years later subjects that had passed the test were found to have better, healthier and more successful lives.
We can observe that all liberal-market-democracies are advocating the concept of “Laissez-faire” which simply means “let do as they please”! The implications is that everything is permissible! In contrast Islam has 5 types of actions:
1- واجب (Must Do)
2- مستحب (Better Do)
3- مباح (Doesn’t matter)
4- مکروه (Better Not DO)
5- حرام (Must Not Do)
To say everything is in the middle and permissible in favor of freedom is against what we have clarified here. Liberal-market-democracies provide for “base” desires so people feel they are free, the effect is they are now weak and powerless with alarming “bastard” rates, such people naturally vote for the same clown leaders and thus the continuation of the control of Satan. Have you watched the Pinocchio part where they become donkeys!?
Indeed a macho warrior swinging a hefty sword running and yelling “for freedom!” is an ugly contradiction to behold! “For Freedom from tyranny!”, but you need power to get rid of that tyranny unless you ask someone else for help and if that is the case why not choose a more appropriate tone like “I beg you please free us!”. There is no shame in asking God but seriously God likes those who eternally Seek something greater than what they currently have and so they are never “content” and are willing to sacrifice and trade with God. They never bind themselves to anything other than God.
The most precious thing for God is a strong heart/soul of a human that can see and seek the way God intended… this is what he has to develop in this life, the rest are given or taken away by God as he see fit.
Freewill and Freedom are shadow words just like Nothing and Nothingness, etc… in case of “freedom”, I consider it to be a massive mental-idol that needs to be broken.
my two rials
Boy… the amount of ego and denial here from Iran, to all points self adulating. is amazing. Your two rials are full of so much pedantry and pseudo-intellectualism, I am surprised you can even breathe after sucking all the oxygen out of every room you are in. As for the fundie Christian speak, boy… are you in for a surprise when you leave this plane.
Thank you for allowing my posts…. so would you go for power or freedom in the end!? Which one makes more sense: Freewill or Willpower.
I cannot brook Visible’s cavalier and wannabe “been there, done that” response to a “fundy.”
