The Fullness of Human Experience by Dane Rudyhar 1895- 1985

“In the immeasurable cycle of the Movement of Wholeness, a moment of supreme experience comes when, at the ever-present "meeting of the ways," the greatest Lord of Darkness challenges the most radiant Presence of Light. From the deepest regions of obscurity, the python of negative emptiness rises to the light, uncoiling its devastating power. And the combat rages.

There can be no end to the crucial embrace, no limits to the battlefield. For, while in his supreme effort the Lord of Darkness finds his vision confused by his hateful desire to annihilate light, in the sublime love of the radiant Presence, even the deepest darkness is always included.

There is no annihilating victory. Light and Darkness are one in an encounter that has neither beginning nor end. For Darkness can never see, and Light never ceases to love. Meaning forever rises out of the ubiquitous battlefield of Space in the eonic experience that is reality — always.”

WHERE DWELLS THE ENEMY ?

GEORGE W BUSH
Where Dwells the Enemy?

*Note:Feb 26 2012:
The situation since 2005 is more dire today. The Abyss beckons Humanity.
"As democracy in Iraq takes root, the enemies of freedom, the terrorists, will become more desperate, more despicable, and more vicious ...
"We can expect such atrocities to increase in the coming months because the enemy knows that its greatest defeat lies in the expression of free people in freely enacted laws and at the ballot box."
- G.W. Bush Aug 28, 2005
Mr. Bush without respite invokes the "Enemy" to further the programs of his true constituencies.
 

Let us search for the enemy that he grandiloquently mongers before our unconscious and acquiescently negligent minds.
 

There must now be an earnest attempt at clarity and understanding by most human beings, because we all stand at the edge of the collapsing precipice overlooking a pit that is without bottom, terrible and terminal.
 

Only when we answer these questions can we wisely and accurately discriminate about the true distinguishable nature of "who is the enemy?"

These questions must be answered before we all go marching meekly - kowtowing like white buffaloes with ropes and rings in our noses - to the doom concocted by the authentic enemies in our midst.

"Enemy" and "Inimical" both stem from the same Latin root word; inimicus. Inimical is the adjective form of enemy, meaning unfriendly, hostile and obstructive. 

Enemy (pl. ies) are persons, forces, groups, nations or things that deliver harm and destruction to someone or something by acts of commission or (we must not forget) omission. 

Next, in the context of current world events, it must be precisely understood what forces and groups are the main antagonists - against what do they fight and what motivates this vicious, vibrant and seemingly infinite lust for death and destruction. 

Only then, with an awakened, compassionate and adamantine consciousness, can we begin to disarm and eradicate the long entrenched, habitual lunacy ruling over nations and Western Civilization. 

This discernment - with actions - must happen now~!

The true enemies are emboldened and empowered - even daily - by our numb unconsciousness, unbearable stupidity and silence.

The nexus of the present ultimate crisis - unavoidable and overwhelmingly stark - demands no less than choosing either - Death by valorous sacrifice - or - Death by craven surrender.

The choices are Death of self-centeredness, fear and if need be, body and breath in service for all Mankind or - Death as slavering bovine prey for the slaughterhouses of cruel and contemptuous Empire-masters.
 
Why such a devastating decision? 

Tragically, at every turn in the road, the United States as a nation is going the wrong way. It's too late for reforms now, it is past the point of rectifications. 

The avalanche has long ago begun its terrible descent and we must endure the irrevocable retributions for the spilled blood and agonies of countless innocents and justice betrayed. 

9/11, Endless Wars and Katrina are just the foretastes for what is impending.

Is this why Bush I and Bush II have incarnated to hold the reins: to ensure that the terrors so long dished out, return to us for the wrongs we have done?

At present, all the drivers and conductors are maniacs. The abyss beckons. Ferocious intensity of intentionality has hijacked the world and we are all trundling towards disaster in a maelstrom of nihilistic chaos. 

When rare leaders appear - JFK, Martin Luther King and valiant independents like Paul Wellstone - the Shadow strikes!

Where dwells the enemy?

The significant seed-causes, for the contemporary disintegration of millenniums of progress, lie deep in centuries past - this cannot be addressed now. However, the culmination is upon the world.
 
It is administrated by ruling elites who have foisted their puppets to preside over the Grand Finale of wiping out most of Humanity and appropriating the remainders and the jewel planet as their new Babylon "Gate of God", enforced by the likes of the Pentagon's "Joint Vision 2020", the blueprint the United States Department of Defense.
One snippet:
"The label full spectrum dominance implies that US forces are able to conduct prompt, sustained, and synchronised operations with combinations of forces tailored to specific situations, and with access to and freedom to operate in all domains - space, sea, land, air and information.
Additionally, given the global nature of our interests and obligations, the United States must maintain its overseas presence forces and the ability to rapidly project power worldwide in order to achieve full spectrum dominance."
"Vision 2020" has just been updated in recent days with the insistence that the State has the right under the puissant guidance and wisdom of the Commander in Chief G.W. Bush, to inflict a nuclear pre-emptive attack against any enemy groups or countries - even on the suspicion of malevolent intentions that he deems to be a threat to the "Homeland".
 
In more than 300 American Universities and thousands of corporate factories and labs, hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars are expended by millions of scholars, intellectuals and the most educated and trained America professors and professionals for one sole mission - satisfying the Pentagon and the weapons merchants' insatiable lust for profits. 

The statistics are mind-boggling. The same story occurred before the Two World Wars. What happened then as the natural consequence of that will definitely happen again very soon…there is no hope for disarmament now.

War is obsolete…but only after the final lesson - the survivors will know. Tragically, Mankind must tread the way of Via Negativa.

The PNAC: Project for the New American Century is the primary intellectual foundation and inspiration for the Empire of "Lily Pads". 

The authors (who now run things) openly pined for another Pearl Harbor, which then serendipitously happened on 9.11.

Within a few hours/days of the attacks, an orgy of pre-prepared plans, Patriot Acts, Carte Blanche resolutions and military mobilizations were executed. 

The orchestration was breathtakingly vehement. The 9/11 production, being the greatest spectacle beyond even Cecile B. DeMille's wildest visions, stunned Americans into stupefaction. 

What Satanic zeal, genius and ruthlessness displayed itself to the world! Frankenstein's coming-out party for all to see.

Where dwells the enemy?

Exquisite as well as utterly buffoonish ironies abound every time Bush spouts forth: "we", "terror", "evil", "homeland", "they", "safe", "freedom" "democracy", "enemy" and a host of hackneyed cants. 

Watching the propaganda machine promulgating his speeches to groveling elites and nescient, distracted Americans, is a sickening and disorienting experience for persons who are half-conscious of what is really happening.

The Bush/Rove speechwriters display a hubris-drenched pomposity and condescending, hate-spiked simplicity that along with Goebbels' bilious genius will long fascinate future historians.

Since 9/11, the terms "Ground Zero" and "Homeland Security" have been slipped into the American lexicon and taken on sinister connotations. 

Amy Kaplan, Homeland Insecurities: Reflections on Language and Space Radical History Review 85, pg. 82-93.

"Freedom" as belched forth from the maws of the Bush puppets is true slavery, the dingy gouache smeared across the Big Lie blinds. 

Their liberty is libertinism. Their freedom: the unbridled Capitalism perniciously plundering the planet and its people.

"I call that mind free which protects itself against the usurpations of society, which does not cower to human opinion, which feels itself accountable to a higher tribunal than man's, which respects itself too much to be the slave of the many or the few."
- William Ellery Channing

"Evil", the shadowy reality that forever haunts the Human condition has always existed and always will. 

It cannot be defeated anymore than the night can be extinguished in its never-ending cycle with daylight. 

Only the acceptance and vigilant awareness of our own evil and shadow will dispel the destructive projections and merciless murders against "they and "other". 

The vigil light of compassionate awareness dissolves the eruptive violence of the suppressed and long denied Shadow. 

Carl Jung said many times that if we can emit a bit of light on our own darkness, it would remove some of the larger darkness from the world.

Contrast the two quotations below from speeches given before the UN just days ago:
"No cause, no movement and no grievance can justify the intentional killing of innocent civilians and noncombatants," 

Condoleezza Rice said. "This is unacceptable by any moral standard." This said, while Americans bombs have done nothing other than kill millions of civilians and non-combatants for the last 60+ years, even to this hour in Iraq and Afghanistan.
- and -
"It is unpractical and unethical to sacrifice the human race by appealing in an insane manner the validity of a socioeconomic model that has a galloping destructive capacity. It would be suicidal to spread it and impose it as an infallible remedy for the evils which are caused precisely by them" President Hugo Chavez said. 

"Now is the time to not allow our hands to be idle or our souls to rest until we save humanity." 

This said, while Bush America has done nothing but try to kill and destroy Chavez and his revolutionary reforms.

"…hypocrisy is the vice of vices in that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core."
- Hanna Arendt


Where dwells the enemy?

"Terrorism" is a tactic, not an enemy to be vanquished by War. 

War itself is the debauched revelry of terror. 

To destroy terrorism with terrorism is an oxymoron paradox.

It is beyond belief that millions of intellectuals and academic scholars and their like have bought into this sham…rather… they have sold out for 30 pieces of silver.

Virtually all the major terror attacks are State initiated, sponsored, fabricated and for the benefit of the War Machines - especially 9/11.

As "Operation Gladio", demonstrated, State sponsored terrorism is a tried and true technique to instill fear and corral the masses into submission.

"Almost three-quarters of the (British) public believe that it is right to give up civil liberties to improve our security against terrorist attacks" as reported by the Guardian on Aug 22, 2005.

This poll of course followed the 7/7 contrived bombings in London. It works every time. How incredibly piteous it is. The mass medias are now the mass herders for the Plutocratic Oligarchs.

Where dwells the enemy?

The United States has morphed into the purest form of Fascism the world has yet to suffer, its delineations now so plain as to be parodic were it not so grave.

Totalitarianism is being carefully crafted by thousands of Executive Orders, Congressional Resolutions, and Judicial Decisions.

The Padilla Case is just one of the latest thrusts of the stake into the Heart of the Republic. J. Michael Luttig, is the Judge who wrote the decision-making opinion that gives the Imperial President untrammeled power to desecrate all that Humanity struggled for centuries to gain.

This of course parallels satin-tongued and wily John Roberts's elevation to the Chief Justice - for his years of sycophantic loyalty and recent assenting vote in the Hamdan ruling also granting Bush dictatorial powers. 

These appointments assure the continued de-structuring of the last vestiges of the founding fathers' ideals, the Constitution and Bill of Rights. 

It also amounts to a nod and a wink to the rest of the Establishment to play ball.

As for the Congress? Walter Karp more than 30 years ago wrote, Indispensable Enemies, The Politics of Misrule in America, which revealed the collusion of the two party party system in America. (his books now marginalized...should be required reading today!*2012)

That collusion has resulted in debasing Congress to the level of doormats for the Elites and their puppets. They lick the gold dust off the heels of corporate/bankster lobbyists while sacrificing the common good. 

Exoterically, they have betrayed representing the people. 

Esoterically, they precisely represent the American people.

Such is really the case.

Where dwells the enemy?

Regarding the CIA - two quotations are emblematic of the countless volumes documenting the brutal truth:
"I was a very minor missionary, actually a heretic, but I toiled wholeheartedly in the vineyards because it was fun, fun, fun," White wrote. "Where else could a red-blooded American boy lie, kill, cheat, steal, rape and pillage with the sanction and blessing of the all-highest?"
- Captain George Hunter White, an OSS/CIA agent
in a letter to Dr. Sidney Gottlieb (OSS was the
forerunner ofthe CIA until thechange in 1947.)


In 1947, President Truman created the CIA out of the World War II Office of Strategic Services (OSS). He set it up because he:
"... needed at that time a central organization that would bring all the various intelligence reports we were getting in those days...so that the President would get one report on what was going on in various parts of the world. But it got out of hand. 
"Now, as nearly as I can make out, those fellows in the CIA don't just report on wars and the like, they go out and make their own, and there's nobody to keep track of what they're up to. They spend billions of dollars on stirring up trouble so they'll have something to report on. They've become....it's become a government all of its own and all secret. They don't have to account to anybody."
Harry S. Truman's Oral Biography, Merle Miller's 1973 book Plain Speaking:
"The DCI (Director of Central Intelligence) is nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate, the DCI serves at the pleasure of the President."
At whose pleasure does the President serve - is the more pertinent question?
Ratlines, in espionage jargon, are networks of agents who smuggle fugitives or undercover operatives in and out of hostile foreign territories. 

From the Nazi ratlines in the 1940s - when The Dulles brothers and "Wild Bill" Donovan smuggled thousands of Nazi SS officers known as the Gehlen Organization into the OSS/CIA - until today 32 years after Truman's woeful comments, the covert CIA has caused the deaths of millions of civilians while it also thrashed about thirty+ (publicly known) democratic countries. 

Extreme right wing Fascists and Nazi seed men from Germany as well as US citizens including Richard Nixon's mentor and Bush patriarch, Prescott Bush, poisoned America with noxious roots whose tendrils are now strangling the world.
Who really won the Second World War is a question worth pondering ?

Black budgets amounting to more than forty billion annually are kept secret even from Congress - this with the full and continuous consent of Americans and their tax dollars.

Thousands of billions of taxpayer dollars have been feeding the CIA Underworld since 1947 alone. This does not include trillions more of illicit dollars off the books.
Meanwhile, for lack of just a meager fraction of these sums, billions live/ed indigently and die/d in misery.

Each one a sentient human being, wanting only happiness and freedom from extreme suffering. 

The precious children - dazed, bludgeoned, traumatized, in-cognizant and vulnerable…their smiles and luminous eyes frozen, slain and transformed into appalled and wounded glooms of unspeakable despair - unto early death they are released, without any clue as to why!

Where dwells the enemy?

Is there hope for transformation and reform? It cannot be as circumstances stand. 

Only total purging and deracination - only mass cooperative protests storming and over-running Washington and Langley, Virginia - only complete refusal to pay taxes to the biggest group of thugs and racketeers in world history - only total boycotts of the criminal corporations and the stripping of corporate personhood, only full exposure and jailing of the media whores ... !!!

However these these essential actions and more are not likely to happen. (*2012, look at the squashing of OWS)
Like Thomas Paine:
"The moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decisions, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now".
- Goethe

By the force of blades and barrels of fire, the Elites rose to the top, lording over, abusing and exploiting the people. 

Tears and toil, blood and bones were and are their feasts and fat. 

The systems they instituted more than 2000 years ago, rot and stink like the waters of New Orleans. (Katrina)

Truly, they are the overlaying scum of the Earth.

Their citadels to self are crumbling.

The veneer of civilization is peeling fast.

With gratitude and faith, the realization that the Bush Junta is now accelerating the demise of that which must die, can we accept the bitter truth - Bush(*2012 Obama etc...) is the face of the real enemy - which is not separate from us !


Once some years ago, I stayed alone in a houseboat on Dal Lake in Kashmir. 

Few places are as ethereally beautiful as there. 

While I was gliding in gondolas on the mist and sun dappled lake, relaxed and beguiled by seas of pink, expansive Lotus blossoms , religious pilgrims were being slaughtered in groups of up to thirty. 

The slayings happened almost daily just several miles away.

Unlike scum blocking the sunlight and poisoning the waters, Lotus seeds take root in the sludge and mud, raise their stems straight towards the sun and stand high above the surface glorifying purity, beauty and peace. 

All life below and around thrives and flourishes and humans can only be awed in their midst. 

I ruminated on the dichotomy and meaning. 

If only we could emulate the Lotus and be Seed men and women in service to Life, Loving-kindness and Compassion.
