Dog Poet Transmitting…….
Cartoons are a medium for understanding The World in a child’s mind. There are positive and negative examples. I don’t think there’s ever been a cartoon series or animated film about The Sun… yet The Sun is the most powerful character in The Manifest World. The Sun is everywhere in life… and seldom in human thought, except for Beach-Blanket-Bingo mindsets.
It is the same with God. God is everywhere unseen in life yet… seldom is he the focal point in the human mind.
Cartoons humanize… anthropomorphize… Devic forces. The Sun is a Deva. Cartoons are how small children are first introduced to material phenomena. In a child’s mind, Nature is a cartoon. These days… cartoons and animated films are propaganda and indoctrination into a world that only exists when Babylon is rising. Faster than you might think, it is all turning into dark… twisted… shit.
I bring up cartoons… and childhood for a reason. Before The World splits in two through the force of puberty, a child’s mind exists in a state of unity. I am not talking about the times we find ourselves in, but about the times that are now slipping away.
A child’s mind is like The Subconscious. The Subconscious sees in pictures. Self Consciousness comes into play later on. It starts to form and separate during the Purgatory of Puberty. That you must, “become as a little child” has a lot to do with this. We are exhorted to return to a former time of unity in The Mind. We are asked to surrender The Personal Will and reembrace our much wiser and more powerful eternal parents.
We went astray. We nearly all go astray on courses set in puberty and we must return… we must attain Regenerated Innocence.
The Subconscious Mind is The Reservoir of Dreams. It is the place where dreams reside, and also the place where the future is formed under the direction… or misdirection… or total lack of direction by The Self-Conscious Mind. This is why The Tarot can be used to build The Personality of God into our being. Eliphas Levi said that “if a man in prison had only The Tarot, and knew how to make use of it, he would soon develop a universal science and be able to speak with inexhaustible eloquence on any subject.” (that’s… more or less… verbatim)
Why am I talking about these things? Why did I spend so much time on Concentration yesterday, without saying all that much? (grin) These are tools and you need tools to make your way in (and out of) The World. If your only concern is The Material World, then you need read no further. If… however… your concerns are of a more ineffable order… you need tools.
These forces and tactics I have been mentioning are compelling reasons for why Meditation is such a powerful agency. Personally… I don’t meditate all that much. For me, it is more conversations and prayers. Sometimes my soul takes wings and flies on the sailing ship of The Imagination (Trump #3); I love those mixed metaphors. My spiritual journey is a jambalaya-gumbo mix of endless rarefied sensation, always reminding me of God’s Presence.
I apologize for that last paragraph. I did not know how to say what I wanted to say because it can’t be said. Music comes closer, BUT… the reality is above The Senses. Higher up, it is all music. The physical senses cannot transmit the experiences of The Higher Mind. You need to activate your spiritual senses for that. This is one of the things that The Tarot can accomplish for you. It pings off of archetypes in The Subconscious Mind and draws them to the surface, for your education… and your transmutation… into a vehicle for Cosmic Force.
It is of no never mind to me if the reader avails themselves of this tool. There are other systems that accomplish the same thing, like Yoga and Hermetic Science. Prayer alone… Theurgy… there are many ways up the mountain.
There is an intense fog in these times that shrouds the higher mysteries from the pedestrian-curious mind. Maybe that’s a good thing, though probably not. (grin) If you are going to study Tarot you have to go to The BOTA lessons and stay away from everyone else (with a few exceptions). They go on for years… decades… and you have to get past the densest series of lessons right at the beginning which is called The Seven Steps. I think they did this on purpose to discourage dilettantes and navel-gazers.
Here’s the deal… as simply as I can put it… and it is what I have found so far to this point. First off, you don’t get anywhere. You are already there, but your perspective is flawed. Your perspective MUST BE brought into line with The Divine Perspective. There are no ifs… ands… or buts… about it. You MUST diminish and The Divine must increase. Galadriel had a great comment about that after Frodo offered her The Ring.
You must unlearn because you… do… not… know. You only think you know. I had this viscerally transmitted to me by The Grace of God. You must (at the risk of seeming redundant) “become as a little child.” You must put aside your vanities of The Separated Mind and embrace the dissolution of your false self. You must become a clear transparency through which The Light of Heaven may shine.
If you could see your aura, you would clearly know where you are deficient, much the way that a doctor reads your health (far less efficiently) through tests and observation, and can tell you what you lack in terms of vitamins and other essentials. Scratch that. Doctors don’t know anything other than what The AMA Pharmaceutical Combine tells them now. You want to make yourself insufferably stupid? Go to college. You want to become even more insufferably stupid? Keep going to college.
Very little of what is learned in college is of any use in life; technical skills and the trades? Yes… you can learn useful things. Alternative healing techniques? Yes. Herbal… foraging… and survival skills make sense. This other garbage is to put you in a rank-and-file lockstep with The Purple-Hair Obesity Crew. If you think that might be for you, they are on Tik Tok every day, cavorting like brain-damaged baboons for your amusement.
It cannot continue. The Amazing Suicide March of The Clueless WILL come to an end. The depravity and conspicuous consumption of the dog-eat-dog cities shall implode. The corrupt structure and systems that afflict all but those employing them… WILL cease. It’s all coming down, while the yet-to-come is in gestation, with a few green sprigs showing… here and there.
We are presently in a chrysalis of ignorance, just short of metamorphosis, brought to you courtesy of Mr. Apocalypse and Lady Awakening. It is going to be a… rude awakening for many. Many will wink in and out of existence and be sent to The Wardrobe Department on The Moon. You’re going to need friends you can count on, and they are the vibrating archetypes in The Subconscious. They are the animation characters of The Devic Kingdom. They are The Angels. They are… your invisible friends.
They are all expressions of The Divine who uses them to construct… maintain… and destroy The World.
Zippity-Do-Dah!!!!!! The Child Mind can see them. I get them peripherally all the time now; must be a trick of the light. (grin)
I was speaking with The Ineffable recently and he said… “Visible, people get it wrong. Oh… how wrong they get it. They set me apart. They make up rules they attribute to me. They shun and embrace by turns according to their predictable patterns. They live in an anthropomorphic Disneyland with the wrong cartoon characters. Visible! (shudder) I am intimately connected with life. I am deep into the warp and woof. I experience life THROUGH human agency. That is why I am called The Supreme Enjoyer.
“If you are fortunate enough to be aware of this, then you are enjoying life and The Moment, with me NOW! And forever. I am an essential part of all life. Life is the expression of my will through the dreaming engine of my Maya. It is a theater that I created so that people can get up to whatever they desire. When the fruit of their actions is ripe, they will learn the meaning of it.
If… in the passionate fury and hubbub of existence, their thoughts turn to me. I… will… guide… them… home. Otherwise… let them play. Let them dance their brief hours again, and again, and again. In time, they… will… learn… and their thoughts will turn to me.”

As did Galadriel, Les Visible has “passed the test”…
May many more green sprigs sprout and become visible in the wonderful times to come!

Here’s a nice representation of that test we all face…

It is hard to work out how music does what it does: all I have so far is that faster rhythms and higher notes are happier, and even these are not rules. Understanding the tones of instruments and their effects on emotions at the level of mechanics would be very difficult. The intriguing thing is that it could be done
Ah, Les, your brilliant verbatim quotes possess the capacity to remove Tamas, the clouds of ignorance in the mental atmosphere, and to put in its place Sattva, or that which the soul incessantly longs for. In the United States, we are drowning in a whole ocean of ceaseless ignorance induced by the desires and machinations of the Vaishyas, the business and commerce class of supposedly elite human beings whose schools, colleges, and media for centuries have molded and shaped not only consciousness but also the unconscious self of humanity.
While all appearances indicate strongly they (the perennial, centuries-old Vaishyas) are in the driver’s seat of the vehicle speeding relentlessly toward a most horrible fate, we all may experience in one way or another, in the not-too-distant future, I obtain solace from the fact Mr. Apocalypse and the most recent Avatar are working diligently among us all to remove the wreckless driver and replace him/her with a God-force of spiritual purity and perfection.
We are all in that vehicle we humans lost control over long ago, and when that happened, darkness descended upon the Earth realm; it has been sustained for more than 2 millennia and counting. It all commenced at about the time of the Council of Nicea (approximately 400 A.D.) when the Romans under Constantine literally burned down every house of spirituality they could find because they understood they could never really control truly spiritual, ascetic beings whose routine focus was a loving, merciful God.
As such, their unmatched, nonpareil ignorance led them to attempt to eliminate completely all true spiritually, and their scribes schemed unabashedly to replace it with their own brand of religion. And by what name do we know this newfound spirituality, this 5th Century novelty, that would render unto the Roman elite total control over their subject class? We know it today as Christianity.
Perhaps we would all do well to remember that during the times of yore when spirituality was most potent on this realm we know as Earth, during the times of pre-history and antiquity, many Christs roamed the land fully intending to heal the sick, to clothe the unclothed, and house the unhoused, to bring relief to the poor, the lowly, the downtrodden, and the oppressed, notwithstanding race or ethnicity or culture or national origin.
The light went out approximately 2000 years ago, thanks to our good friends, the Romans, and others like them, and because of that the vast majority of humanity continues to suffer the equivalent of spiritual death seemingly unabated.

Kaftan–thanks, it shows how complicated it is. I once heard someone playing a new form of electronic music based on a new scale with Pi at its heart. Did it catch on? No, but it sounded like it had good potential. I used to invent new scales, but never even mastered the old one, so I could not explore them properly. Some Jews experimented with using all twelve notes all the time and that did not work well, in my opinion. Music has infinite possibilities, making it hard to analyse
