Smoking Mirrors – Dec 23, 2020
Dog Poet Transmitting…….
Christmas. The celebration of the last Avatar’s birth. There is a noticeable shift in kind this year. The advent of the coming avatar has merged with the previous cycle. It is a timeless thing, after all; God deciding to manifest in human form. It doesn’t happen often, and he’s never far away from an open heart even when he’s not coming and going.
These days, those seeking the presidency of the United States, are beginning to start campaigning years before the next election. Presidential candidates are not on a par with an avatar. The Avatar begins his preparations and ‘projected’ details of occurrence centuries and centuries before his arrival. Let us compare a president of the most powerful country (at the moment) in the world and an avatar. Most of the time a president presents himself as a wielder of meaningless gestures. With an avatar, EVERY gesture is meaningful and life-changing. Occasionally, we get a relatively decent person. If you look back over the last few years here, you see what happens to them when mysterious fortune has, momentarily, prevailed over the Leviathans of the Swamp. You may have your own opinion on the matter. I know what has been revealed to me and no more.
There is something that has ALWAYS surprised me. It has surprised me for most of this life. I should preface this with a qualifier. I’ve NEVER had any trouble believing in God and by now, I can say authoritatively that it is unlikely to ever happen. I lack in so many areas, but this is not one of them, and my whole life, this life, has been about creating situations for God to prove his existence to me, OVER and OVER, and OVER. I’ve not had any trouble believing in miracles and ascended beings. I find it so hard to understand how people can have any doubt at all about God, BUT… they do, and nothing will crush a life so definitively and decisively as DOUBT.
Even with The Avatar coming, again and again, people… in the larger majority just toss their lot on to a sea of material troubles in an unkind world. The World is NOT kind. The World is a living being whose purpose is to guide you, inexorably, step by painful step to Liberation. This is what ALL Living Forces who serve The Divine do as vocation AND avocation. There is such a joy and delight in this, in selfless service that one loses themselves in it, like a dolphin surfing ocean waves. It is impossible to explain this to anyone who does not already know it, BUT… anyone who engages in it with any consistency soon sees why it is so. I’d like to recommend a film that touches on this. Somehow this film escaped the viper’s nest that is Hollywood. It’s titled, “Same Kind of Different as Me.” I recommended it a couple of years (or so) ago. Great art is still being made if you know where to look for it.
Yeah… I don’t get all this dancing with flaming thorns, not once you know what it’s about. People tell themselves and each other that they are going to devote their lives to finding and serving God, just as soon as they can get all their problems solved. That NEVER happens. Life doesn’t operate like that. Life is designed to trap you. Even this is a benefic if you can look at it the right way. Yes, it traps you and this causes you to struggle to be free (grin). Why does it take so long, though? I’m glad you asked that. It doesn’t take so long if you don’t take so long. What sort of pace have you set? Uh-huh, there you go. That, in fact, also answers all sorts of other questions that may have been coming and going in your head.
It’s not supposed to happen for most people with any real speed. With all I’ve read and been told, lives follow lives like leaves falling from a tree. I don’t know if it can be determined; when someone’s heart experiences a fundamental change. Then, the passion and zeal grow by leaps and bounds and LARGE expanses of Karmic terrain can be traversed in short order. It requires a superhuman effort to switch tracks and get the engine humming. Maybe THE FACT that we aren’t doing anything ourselves might help with the perspective. God is the source of all force and action. The separated human mind sets itself AGAINST the Indwelling and shuts it up. UNTIL one cuts all that nonsense loose, one is going to be a clumsy dancer. Once one does shut all that nonsense down, the timeless dance moves through them. Death is put aside. One CAN walk right out of this world and into the next. There are those living this right this moment.
We are told that The Kingdom of God is within. Right! Yeah… Let me get back to you about that. One of the biggest problems is that those who should do, do not walk the talk. People think their deceptions are not seen. Yes, they are. In fact, The Indwelling often points things and people out to us in our minds. Unfortunately, we often do not pay attention AND that hits our Faith and opens the door for Doubt later on.
God IS… Literally, right this minute, occupying a state within you and taking note of EVERYTHING that transpires with you. God has to be approached as a suitor. Your love HAS TO be at a certain level of force and consistency. God is waiting. Who knows what his inscrutable purpose is? The BEST we can do is to incline in his direction. Like Lao Tzu said, “Heaven prefers no man but the wise man prefers Heaven.” If you want to understand God, as much as it is possible for a mortal, simply look at The Sun and observe what it is that The Sun does, and… do likewise. That will get the angels’ attention.
They say Christmas is the season for giving. Of course, you remember those times when you were caught up in the spirit of it. It was all about The Giving. For those who are giving themselves away, every day is Christmas. Jesus the Christ taught us all one needs to know about that. However, The Avatar comes for SPECIFIC reasons each time he comes. There are always remarkable similarities because The Qualities of God are timeless and ever-present, BUT… the job to be done varies. As we mentioned here recently, he is coming this time as The Rewarder and The Punisher. The very planets heralding his coming indicate the nature of his appearance.
The Wind doesn’t blow all day. The rain does stop. Night comes and the day follows. There is ALWAYS chaos and confusion at the turning of the age. In such times one should retreat to the still silent center. Once again; God is ALL POWERFUL. Everything is under control. Accept that and resonate with it, or resist and rebel. Those are the options and… how do you resist an irresistible force?
I wish you The Spirit of Christmas in these times. Put your mind on joyful things and not on the sad distractions being created by those who would enslave you. If they have power then you gave it to them. All power belongs to God, AND… most of the time, in the material sense, it is wielded, knowingly or unknowingly, for The Purpose of Demonstration. People THINK they are in charge, and God is inclined to let them think so, for The Purpose of Demonstration. THEY- are NOT in charge. For some reason, most people think that the people who think they are in charge, are in charge. All things are in flux on the wheels of eternal change. Change is the constant, and… change IS coming again.
I wish you all a VERY MERRY Christmas!!! I wish you the unshakable Faith in The Avatar, because he comes not just to work his miracles on the material conditions in which he arrives. He is also coming to work his miracles on you. ALL that is required of you is to be open to his coming, to be welcoming. Just as our four seasons repeat again and again; at much rarer intervals does this season arrive. We are no longer in The Season of the Witch. Maya is to be suspended, briefly. It is one of those conundrums that mystifies the human mind. The Avatar comes clothed in his own self generated Maya in order to appear. God frees us and God binds us. God does and does not lead us into temptation. Get ‘right’ with God.

I give you what just might be the finest sax solo on the internet (@3:15) A brief excerpt from an improvisational extravaganza.
These guys are in “God mode”… Ladies & Gentlemen, I give you the Chick Corea Electrik Band in full swing! ‘Got A Match?’ Buckle up!

And if you’re up for it, Frank Gambale’s guitar solo from the same gig. His technical facility borders on ‘demonic’, but I’ve met him and he’s quite the pussycat. His ability to avoid cliches and/or repeating himself is ridiculous. Enjoy!

Have you ever considered getting professional help for your Stockholm Syndrome instead of burdening us?
https://www.healthline.com/health/mental-health/stockholm-syndrome
Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response. It occurs when hostages or abuse victims bond with their captors or abusers. This psychological connection develops over the course of the days, weeks, months, or even years of captivity or abuse.
And you just love this “god”, who allegedly tried to drown the entire human race, and then loved us so much that he slaughtered his only begotten son?
I also suggest adding “The Psychopath Next Door” to your reading list.

God Consolidates His Rule by Total Fear and Terror.
at the beginning of Exodus, the famous story of the “burning bush” is described: God supposedly reveals himself to Moses in a burning bush and tells him that the Egyptians will have enslaved the Israelites for a period of 400 years before God finally delivers the captives from their masters. (Exodus 2) Now remember: This is supposed to be an all-powerful God we are talking about here! Instead of subjecting his own “chosen” people to horrible suffering and enslavement for centuries and then freeing them, why not just prevent them from being enslaved in the first damn place?
Well, reading on in Exodus, we get our answer. God hints to Moses that this whole process by which the Israelites become slaves to the Egyptians and then are freed is to him nothing more than a sick game–an opportunity to “shock and awe” everyone with his power: “You shall repeat all that I command you…. But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, that I may multiply my signs and marvels in the land of Egypt.” (Exodus 6) The “you shall repeat all I command you” portion of this passage refers to the instructions God provides to Moses where he tells Moses to tell the Pharaoh to release the Israelites from captivity or else God will punish Egypt. The next few passages of Exodus follow a basic pattern: Moses threatens the Pharaoh that unless he releases the Israelites from captivity, God will unleash plagues on the Egyptians–including blood, lice, frogs, locusts, swarms of insects, and inflammation of the skin, among other things. The Pharaoh witnesses one of these plagues, and immediately agrees to free the Israelites if the plagues are stopped. God halts the plagues, but then also hardens Pharaoh’s heart so that he recants on his promise to free the slaves, and thus God “has no choice” but to inflict more plagues on the Egyptians.
Think about this passage for a second. What does it say about this “God” that, even though he is “all-powerful” and could easily have prevented the Israelites from being enslaved in the first place, and then subsequently could have freed them once they were enslaved, he would instead choose to intentionally prolong the suffering of both the Israelites and the Egyptians merely so that he could show off his -powers? Is that God any kind of God to uphold or believe in?
God’s Psychological Profile
I’ve often wondered what a group of psychologists would make of god if they were presented with a list of behaviours described in the bible, but were not told who the person they were profiling was. How would they assess god. The following is what I think would be high on their lists.
Narcissistic. God likes to be praised. If you don’t praise him, he will either kill you, send you to hell or excommunicate you. This suggests a fragile and shallow ego that can’t exist without the approval of others. The praise must be elaborate and expensive and must be constant. Just saying. “I like you god.” is not enough. You have to repeat this praise for your whole life.
Sociopath / Psychopath. God is probably the greatest serial killer of all time. He kills without conscience. He kills children too young to have formed evil intent. He selects his victims on racial grounds or because they don’t worship and adore him. He kills animals and plants en masse. Again a sure sign of a serial killer who lacks empathy or a conscience. This is not an entity that should be used as a role model for morality or ethical behavior.
Exclusionary and corrupt. God has favourites. Far from all humans being created equal, god selected one tribe out of all of the millions on the planet and decide they were his pet humans. God used omnipotent powers to commit a genocide against people that were not of that select tribe, ethnically cleansed a piece of land for the exclusive use of one tribe, and then abandoned them shortly after to suffer a similar genocide in later history. This suggests that god’s rationale for selecting his favourites is shallow and unreliable. God’s promises cannot be trusted. God can also be swayed by bribes, gifts and offerings. The more brutal the offering, the more god likes it. A sure sign of a narcissistic cult mentality.
Disorganized and slap dash. There is much evidence of overkill (great floods, fires, earthquakes, etc), signifying rage and frustration. There is no pattern to these events as well, usually because disorganized killers are guided by delusion. They also don’t try to hide what they do (quite the opposite – God has very noticeable M.O.s). Usually disorganized killers have poor interpersonal skills and their extreme psychosis causes them to be solitary. God’s motivation is often vengeance. If he feels a slight, he is likely to overreact and kill en masse, rather that retribution to the individual. What offends god changes with time so it is very dangerous for humanity to do anything, lest god suddenly find this behaviour offensive, and send down another flood to wipe out life on earth, except his favourites.
Poor attention to detail. As a creator, god’s science project, life in the universe and us, is a hodge podge of sticky tape and glue. The defects or poor design in life on earth are myriad and obvious. I won’t list them as they have been the subject of brilliant exposure elsewhere in this discussion community.
You get the picture. I’m sure many more character flaws can be found in god’s psychological profile given time. I found a psychological profile of god written by a student criminal profiler, which inspired this discussion suggestion. The full text can be found here.

Thanks Les Visible. I wish you the same.
It might show a bit more humanity if this festival was turned into a day of mourning for all the firstborns slaughtered by Herod in his search for “the new born king” but of course you Christians don’t care about your fellow humans; you just care about your own salvation.
Dear Dr Feelgood,
Consider Romans 9:20. Surely the creator is always superior in many ways to the creature and I suggest that your psychological assessment of God is superficial at best and conducted within a self-righteous framework. Proverbs 1:7 comes to mind: The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.
Dear Paul Hamilton,
American Christians have gone along with their country’s wars for so long now and have proven themselves unwilling, or unable, to stop the situation, so I would draw your attention to the very first proverb:
The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
3 To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
4 To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
5 A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:
16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.
19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,
22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
And can you hear the sound of mocking?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urFcnTdnDd0
Can’t you hear the mocking as Bill Gates talks about injecting you with Luciferace enzymes? Can’t you hear the mocking as the WEF crowd talk about you eating insects, drinking sewage, etc?
Your God has found you wanting! He no longer is listening to your prayers. ARE YOU HEARING WHAT I SAY?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efqAKQw1AFc
Dr Feelgood;
It is not so simple as you think. The scriptures are mostly metaphorical and cannot be correctly interpreted by wordly logic.
God gave us free will. Humans abuse it. Where to place the blame?
Peace.
Dear Dr Feelgood,
I absolutely agree with you – and from what little I understand – God actually hates the lukewarm. I suggest that people who mingle Caesar’s kingdom with God’s kingdom are in a dangerous place. I don’t think one should conflate God with churchianity – but many do that and will be rejected by both God and Caesar.
Yes – my God has found me wanting but I am so thankful that I am forgiven through what Jesus did 2000 years ago. I find that God has been answering my prayers – but not necessarily as I wanted or expected.
I reviewed my response to your posts and I think I was a little sharp – so my apologies – it’s not for me to judge you as self-righteous. Did not Jesus say … first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
People who follow the way of Jesus do care about their fellow humans – the prime directive is to love God with all your heart and mind and love your neighbour as your self.
You don’t need to shout and I pray that God will give you wisdom and revelation. Peace on your house.
@ Dr Feelgood
Have you heard of cosmic abandonment syndrome? It dovetails nicely into the Stockholm syndrome you mentioned. See this:
https://centralbankinginsanity.wordpress.com/2020/12/25/yukon-jacks-dreadful-christmas-message/
Religionists like to project their own egoic terror through their god proxy. The Gospels work like this: the terroristic god is adopted by the believer, god’s terror becomes the believers revenge on the world.
It is laughably insane that theists claim god is love and then this god comes back at the end of time, while we are killing each other off in ww3, and then god kills even more. Note how this all powerful god doesn’t take an active role during his intermission to keep the world peaceful.
I love it when the believers claim they know the mind of god, as if. What they know is their own psychopathy, as god is their out of control ego.
And for those who presume to be our masters:

Thank you Dr. Feelgood, for the well written and intelligent responses!! I don’t understand how anyone could argue against the OBVIOUS points that you make? PEACE AND TRUTH TO ALL!!

Someday – whenever the Norns, those inscrutable spinners of fate, decree it – there shall come a Great Winter (Old Norse fimbulvetr, sometimes Anglicized as “Fimbulwinter”) unlike any other the world has yet seen. The biting winds will blow snows from all directions, and the warmth of the sun will fail, plunging the earth into unprecedented cold. This winter shall last for the length of three normal winters, with no summers in between. Mankind will become so desperate for food and other necessities of life that all laws and morals will fall away, leaving only the bare struggle for survival. It will be an age of swords and axes; brother will slay brother, father will slay son, and son will slay father.

Both sections of the Bible are concerned only for Israel until the odd incident where Saul is convinced that Jesus and Christians are somehow God (” why persecutest thou me?”)and to be protected, yet Saul also gets the idea that Jesus is for the Gentiles, against the opinion of Jesus himself, so we wonder if Paul played the same trick as Maimonides, letting Christianity be a pathway to a Judaic world.
I bet most humans know of someone that takes all the credit, when they deserve little or none, and none of the blame, when they deserve most or all of it. That sounds like the “ineffable” Les speaks of? Any good human deed is because “it” is shining through you, and not at all because of conscious effort to help or want to see others not suffer, or to make something easier for them. Even as basic(you would think?)as holding a door open for someone, or replying “THANK YOU” if someone does it for you!! But if we do something wrong (everyone does), the “ineffable” isn’t around? There is no way that I would follow a ‘LEADER’ like that! I bet at least 90% of humanity wouldn’t either? PEACE, LOVE AND TRUTH TO ALL!
Well…things are swinging like chickens in a chicken swinging contest! The Swinging Chickens or maybe…The Swinging Chicks.
It’s too bad most Christians were easily fooled into two world wars by which those who muster the propaganda got these obedient Christians to slaughter each other, among other groups of course. Appearances of authority is what they rely on; so we have a fake world based on appearances created by those who run the show(s).
It’s too bad these mentally castrated Christians crucify those who come to save then from the malefic machinations of the perverts of the synagogue of Zion. Hitler and the Germans could have done a lot of good for Germany and the world, plus, HE wrote his OWN book: Mein Kampf.
Let us pray for…

I bet most humans know someone that takes all the credit, when they deserve none or little, and ZERO of the blame, when most or all is the TRUTH. Sound a little like Les’s “ineffable”? So, humans never do anything of their own valition to help fellow humans? It’s just “it” shining through you. Where is “it” when we don’t do right? No blame to the “LEADER”??? Also, kind of crazy that “it” loves you(most important thing right??), but “it” needs EVERY OUNCE OF GLORY TO “ITSELF”?? PEACE, LOVE, AND TRUTH TO ALL!!
Is this why nothing ever changes for EVIL: ” As above, so below.”?
