Ainsley Broussard's List: SPIRITUAL WARFARE

• Friday, July 1, 2011
• Part Three of Preliminary Conclusions and Deep Suspicions.
• Strange Overtones: The Human Species As An Object of Fear
• The Peacock Angel of Pantheism
• “Living organisms have never been produced by inert matter. In its life, its death, its decomposition an organism circulates it atoms through the biosphere over and over again but living matter is always generated from life itself....Living matter gives the biosphere an extraordinary character, unique in the universe. Two distinct types of matter, inert and living, though separated by the impassable gulf of their geological history, exert a reciprocal action upon one another.." -Vladimir Vernadsky
• This series of posts on the subject of unidentified aerial phenomenon originating from living sentient creatures rather than from spacecraft originated with some of the recent discoveries in quantum biology which led to my revisiting the theories of Mr Vernadsky as quoted above.
• This led to various correspondences with Pantheism,  as well as my interest in the ontological theories of Ibn Al Arabi, who strikes a similar chord as Vernadsky in  what Oneness of Being (wahdat al-wujud) as applied to the living system of a Planetary ecology .
• This term could be interpreted, like most,  at face value, but it also has a connection to a belief systems rapidly gaining popularity in scientific circles although Pantheism is not a term we learned alongside that of Darwinism and in particular, it's politicization within the Reich, marrying the interests of industry and governance into a empirical religion whose legacy remains as close to us as our jugular veins.
• 
    Unseen Environments
• If the preliminary results of Princeton University's Global Consciousness Project cannot be refuted, then we are witnessing a new era of exploration, one that ties various forms of consciousness as having energetic fields which act as an environment within a environment.
• From the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy:"
   "Pantheism is a metaphysical and religious position. Broadly defined it is the view that  “God is everything and everything is God … the world is either identical with God or in some way a self-expression of his nature” Similarly, it is the view that (2) everything that exists constitutes a “unity” and this all-inclusive unity is in some sense divine (MacIntyre 1967). A slightly more specific definition is given by Owen (1971 ) who says  “‘Pantheism’ … signifies the belief that every existing entity is, only one Being; and that all other forms of reality are either modes (or appearances) of it or identical with it.”
• One of this world's oldest extant religious traditions, which is much older than Buddhism, has a name that translates roughly to "The People of The Garden" whose currently legacy owes to a line of transmission that is not contained in a written form but was verbally transferred, generation by generation, as well as by the practices of initiation, which I suspect originated in current day Iraq, long before Sumeria, at the conjunction of several rivers.
• Essentially, when one spends a significant amount of time researching various metaphysical terms and the esoteric language of "hidden meanings" which vouchsafed against dangerously irresponsible misinterpretations which would completely or partially transform the roots of knowledge into something quite unrecognizable, much like the fate that befell Christianity, against which high hopes were once placed.
• The question is..whom is to fear whom? The traditional party line is that this phenomenon has all sorts of paranoiac associations and whoo-hoo factors acting as a drag within a cartoon like miasma of uncritical thinking attached like baggage to it.
• Planetary bodies, again and again in various forms in various texts are referred to  as Angels, and in this specific tradition, what at first seems obtuse, even surrealistic is our planet is referred to as The Peacock Angel, of which I have written about the origins of, some time ago.
• Only when one has traveled far from the surface of this planet into the pitch of space, doe this term become observable, a vision that changed one of the first men to walk on the moon, Dr Edgar Mitchell, who went on to found The Institute of Noetic Sciences.
• Of course, in the cyclic history of humanity,  concepts have many lives. ones that were once vital are completely erased due to continual warfare of many stripes and hence then human cultural memory is consigned to an amnesiac state only to be rediscovered.
• Bearing in mind, a planetary body being considered a sentient being long before the arrival of Sumeria, this concept was rediscovered as outlined in this citation from Wikipedia:
   
   "Noosphere ; sometimes noösphere), according to the thought of Vladimir Vernadsky and Teilhard de Chardin, denotes the "sphere of human thought".The word is derived from the Greek (nous "mind") +(sphaira "sphere"), in lexical analogy to "atmosphere" and "biosphere".Introduced by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin 1922 in his Cosmogenesis". Another possibility is the first use of the term by Édouard Le Roy, who together with Chardin was listening to lectures of Vladimir Vernadsky at Sorbonne. 1936 Vernadsky accepted the idea of the Noosphere in a letter to Boris Leonidovich Lichkov (though, he states that the concept derives from Le Roy).
  
• In the original theory of Vernadsky, the noosphere is the third in a succession of phases of development of the Earth, after the geosphere (inanimate matter) and the biosphere (biological life).
• Just as the emergence of life fundamentally transformed the geosphere, the emergence of human cognition fundamentally transforms the biosphere.
• In contrast to the conceptions of the Gaia theorists, or the promoters of cyberspace, Vernadsky's noosphere emerges at the point where humankind, through the mastery of nuclear processes, begins to create resources through the transmutation of elements. It is also currently being researched as part of the Princeton Global Consciousness Project.
• A Planetary Haunted House As A Palace of Mirrors
• "Mastery of the elements." does not translate into a mastery of being as a fulcrum of knowledge, hence we arrive here at a transmutation that occurred on many levels, from the subatomic, to the transmutation of the elements and a unprecedented atmospheric sun, one that seemingly transcended planetary
   ( read arbitrary)  human boundaries and was intentionally created to reverse the process of sustaining solar thermodynamics which provide life to the biosphere, (as we are an apportioned part of this living system) that in effect turned living systems dust, or worse.
• Intuitively I sense this was the proverbial and literal critical mass that set forth waves of metamorphosing images posed as anomalous objects in the skies..perhaps a sort of frantic series of reactions to a threat. A threat of which they could do nothing. Missile bases, aircraft power houses, high tension lines all became a concern quite logically to them, a concern that was not without foundation as our species in relation to their natural environment, became destructive and marauding.  In effect, we became aggressors.
• The tribal animal in the aggregate sum in terms of being is hardly distinguishable from the paleolithic.
• Only a few can discern a very deeply embedded and unsettled matter, that our survival may be decided by other forces outside of our comprehension, as in giving a species "enough rope." As Gurdjieff would say, while the world sleeps, if you must sleep. sleep well, however this does not discount, "the terror of the situation."
• A Species As Objects of Fear
• What does this all have to do with other sentient creature we may share this biosphere with, ones that would have cryptozoologists at a absolute loss to categorize, ones that seemingly look from the outside within us and are able to present to us  a form of natural camouflage that also is a hybridized series of clues as to their nature, while utilizing PSI to enact a visual representation, which is also likely to be a form of hypnotic suggestion, a defense mechanism that is very sophisticated, clever and organic...?
• One that can paralyze a human subject with disassociation.
• Of course, note the word..defense..rather than any aggression. As suggested previously, and hence in this post. I am telegraphing that we are the aggressors, and we are the objects of fear. That is what makes so many paranoiac projections concerning "extraterrestrials" laughable.

• Encounter with a Mara
• Mikk of Estonia knew something was wrong when he looked down and discovered he was floating around his house
• “I knew my body was asleep,” he said. “It was night time but I could see in the dark.”
• 
   Mikk often slipped into a lucid dream state, but this time he traveled outside his body – and encountered something terrifying.
• “Some bad entity was around my house and my spirit fled,” Mikk said.
• “I was hovering along the main road from my house, away from the entity who was unpleasant.”
• Turning back to see if the dark entity was following him, Mikk looked into the face of horror.
• “I passed a house where a neighbor had died of cancer several months ago and with it I passed a shadow of a person,” he said. “It was standing in front of the neighbor’s house and as I sensed it, it was the most awful feeling. It was an unholy terror.”
• Mikk stared in horror at the entity that simply stood at the neighbor’s house, seeming not to notice Mikk at all. However, Mikk got close enough to feel it.
• 
   “I past by its field, I think, and it was horrible,” Mikk said. “It wasn't evil; it was just inhuman, incompatible with the human mind.”
• Mikk, an atheist, isn’t sure why he did this, but he recited the Lord’s Prayer and made the sign of the cross. Then he was back in his room.
• “I heard a loud bang, like a car had hit our house or a piano had been dropped into our living room,” he said. “I was awake in a split second and stared into darkness listening. No one in the house had heard it. The sound came from my head.”
• The event had ended, but Mikk wanted to know what he had seen.
• “I asked a woman I know about it,” he said. “Her grandmother was a healer or seer in the older community here in Estonia. She said, ‘oh yeah, my grandmother told me about those things, they're called the maras.’”
• A mara, the woman said, is a negative energy a person who hates or envies someone sends to that person either intentionally, or subconsciously. The mara then slowly drains the person’s happiness because the one who conjured it wants the target to be miserable.
• “When I asked how to get rid of the thing she said it doesn't matter if you are religious, just say the Lord's Prayer,” Mikk said. “You have to mean it when you say it.”
• That’s the key – conviction. When confronted by a dark spiritual being, she said you have to banish it with authority.
• “When the shadow attacks or is menacing you are likely to be afraid and you can't get that much conviction or will power behind what you say so the Lord's Prayer is a healthy alternative,” Mikk said. “It almost doesn't have religious connotations in that context.”
• Mikk only recited the first few lines of the Lord’s Prayer, but it seemed to work for him.
• “I don't know the rest from heart but I’m planning to print it out and hang it next to my bed,” he said. “Also making the sign of the cross was that way. It was some sort of survivalist reflex. It felt like the right thing to do.”
• Although this experience hasn’t changed Mikk’s spiritual beliefs, he thinks negative entities exist.
• “To be honest, I’ve done lots of mushrooms and met with various entities there and I never made up my mind if they were hallucinations or something that the drug enables you to interact with,” he said.
• “If you are afraid, ignorant, negative, etc., the entities can get to you like rats can get into a shabby household and nest there.
• The evil ones are so bad they don't resemble humanity in any form except shape. They invoke such primal terror you can only scream like a caveman would.”
