But when we hear about promoting the American way of life, you need to understand that in a political-economic context. It’s really more about promoting the notion that official sources have of power… and promoting what the official sources of that economic power say. Because economic power is private power. Economic power is also the State, the government, working in concert, in a healthy marriage, with private power. So the government really acts as a shadow to private power. Now, what is private power? Private power would be the
very, very top levels of the multi-national corporations that are really
promoting, now, a commercial culture of people, not working truly
independently, but for conglomerates. That is, a way of life that is
really getting away from ownership at the grass-roots level and giving up
ownership, giving up power to incredibly concentrated avenues of power
that are really more totalitarian than they are democratic."

Interconnections
/ Declaration
of Omni-Culture This text is a trip for those of you, like me, who believe that we are just a small part of an indissociable entity called life. Here's an excerpt: "We hereby declare the age of limitation over! The problems of his-story
were all derived from the externally impressed notion that reality
is limited. This is how THEY have retained control for all these
aeons. Who are THEY? THEY are the ones outside of
yourself. THEY are the ones who pretend they are somehow “not
you”. How can that be, when you are a fragment of an infinite
hologram which contains all things within it, stored within the
divine proportions of angles? All things, including THEM. And THEY cease to be, once
they are YOU. |

We have liberated the code
of reality, and we transmit it freely for all who will listen! The codes are contained
within myths which are also mathematical formula, which morph into
technologies which give access to hyper-states, within which, are
the stories of infinity, forever phasing and interlocking with the
holographic hyper-angles of consciousness. Humanity has been making the
mistake of simply looking at a single ONE of these angles, believing
it to be the only one which exists, the empire of competition,
duality, hierarchies. If we wish to liberate the
cycle of his-story from the tyranny of endless conflict, then a new
angle must be taken! This angle points in all directions: Omni-point.

or Osho, There is a lot of controversy and odd stories around this man. Take it or leave it, ultimately it doesn't really matter. I would not follow anyone or anything, but I do try to let anything and anyone inspire me in some way. I know nobody that bends my mind so exquisitely has this man. He had no fear of any institutions and had great knowledge from both western and eastern world. Everything I read from him makes me smile and breathe. It is full of contradictions, like life, his message remains alive and free. "Laughter relaxes. And relaxation is
spiritual. Laughter brings you to the earth, brings you down from your
stupid ideas of being holier-than-thou. Laughter brings you to reality as
it is. The world is a play of God, a cosmic joke. And unless you
understand it as a cosmic joke you will never be able to understand the
ultimate mystery. I am all for jokes, I am all for laughter."

"That right time never comes. It is not a story only about that poor man, it is the story of millions of people, of almost all. They are all waiting for the right moment, the right constellation of stars.... They are consulting astrology, going to the palmist... inquiring in different ways what is going to happen tomorrow. Tomorrow does not happen ― it never has happened. It is simply a stupid strategy of postponement. What happens is always today." "To be frank with you - which usually
I am not - I don't know who I am. Knowledge is not possible here where I
am. Only the knower is left, the known has disappeared; only the container
is left, the content is no more." |

"My way has been
described as that of the heart, but it is not true. The heart will give
you all kinds of imaginings, hallucinations, illusions, sweet dreams --
but it cannot give you the truth. The truth is behind both: it is in
your consciousness, which is neither head nor heart." |

Cohen For those of you that can read about topics such as enlightenment and ego without getting your body hair to rise, this man has published a magazine called What is enlightenment? and has manage to interview almost all the wise people I had come to admire or being curious about through the years and they have also put a bunch of other lesser known people from all spheres of activities, art, science, all religions. Their interviews have assembled many different views that give a very inspired vision of life from all angles. Himself about Enlightenment |
