Fiberglass and Resin
My surfboard is woven of millions of tiny threads of wisdom, cemented by the love with which I am gratefully surrounded. Without it I could not withstand the endless pounding of the waves – ultra-strangeness in the world, as well as in my own life. My toes grab hold, the wax which is my faith keeps them from slipping…and yet, the sharp edges of the reef beckon, and these shores are rocky. Surfer’s hell, they call it. An apt phrase, some days.
The focus it takes to stay upright and balanced is not easy, especially as the noose tightens. And the sharks are circling. (thanks for the warning, Cadeveo) But what choice do we have? We must remain, trapped in this physical drama, until the ending unfolds. And yet there is no reason for fear, at all. For those hungry for more insight, check out this great discussion between two of my favorite thinkers, William Henry and Daniel Pinchbeck, at YouTube. Or how about an article on the New Pyramid Age by Phillip Coppens? Perhaps a thoughtful entry on 2012 at The Cleaver, or an insightful word on humans as transmitters by Kingsley. One thing these many minds seem to agree on: the coming transformation will be fully realized only as a result of the work we do within ourselves. It’s an inner revolution, perhaps aided by galactic alignment, cosmic rays and/or altered states – but it won’t be televised. This is a very difficult realization for many people – there can be no excuses, and no shifting the workload. We all must take responsibility, and it starts today, with love and being true to yourself; I know for myself, it can be very, very difficult indeed. And yet in the depths of my spirit, I know it is a task I can’t put off. Our future depends on it.
Our planet is shouting out hints as to our present state with dire emphasis. Must we cry hurriquake, again and again? Typhoons lay waste to the Philippines, while earthquakes rattle there as well as Chile and Indonesia, but it seems to be much more than that now. Freak tides and floods are swamping many areas of the globe, including Indonesia, Algeria, Vietnam, England, Brazil, and Oregon, while heat waves and droughts threaten water supplies and infrastructure in Tennessee, Australia, Chile, North Carolina and Georgia. While it may be part of a much larger catastrophic cycle, in our recent history it is not considered par for the course; Reuters reported that weather-related disasters have quadrupled in the past 20 years. Take heed, Planet X scoffers. I recently reread Stalking Wolf’s prophecies about the Night of the Red Sky; take note one of his Second Sign in terms of this shocking garbage news. (And don’t forget the oil spills recently in Russia, San Francisco, the Gulf of Mexico, and Long Island.)
Our financial and economic crises are certainly no fun to contemplate either. Tired of hearing about the North American Union? And yet, Asia is moving towards its own unification too. Remember, political boundaries are irrelevant; economics holds all the power. The Amero is coming. Our dollar is doomed. Again, Cadeveo points out even rappers are flashing Euros in their videos now, as if to say, better get hip and move with the times. There is no escape in entertainment – there’s so much propaganda, so many inside jokes, it only passes for entertainment for ignorant minds. Synchromystics, you know this path. Fantasy worlds, fantasy treasures and fantasy futures; superpowers, superbugs, and superinanity. One to keep us entranced, one to dull our brains – and don’t forget the really far-fetched one to keep us firmly convinced they are only Stories. Somewhere, something evil laughs softly.
The list goes on. Cell phone towers hidden inside religious symbols. (thanks, Through The Looking Glass) Or how about Comet Holmes merely hiding another object? Yellowstone going to blow? Secret fairy tales coming out? In many ways, we are already prisoners of our co-opted reality. The only respite we have is within ourselves. And who are we? Ask Puppetji.
Yet there too, the Powers-that-be seek to control. Mandatory vaccinations, here and there; our food supply is polluted and re-engineered to what end we cannot even imagine. And don’t forget the water, or the air – They haven’t. What enters our being is contaminated from here, there and everywhere.
And if you think our minds and spirits are free – think again. Generations of rigid belief; tradition; complete and total lack of awareness and training and ignorance of our true history, coupled with stubborn egos: for many, there will be no truth. There will be no release, no final answers. Millions – billions, even – are already trapped in Their webs – both spiritual and physical.
Only by disconnecting will we finally heal. Only by giving everything up will we be fulfilled. It seems, only in the loss of all we know will we finally be shown the truth.
And still, I Surf.
The Master’s power is like this.
He lets all things come and go
effortlessly, without desire,
He never expects results,
thus he is never disappointed.
He is never disappointed;
thus his spirit never grows old. -Tao Te Ching #55

Wonderful stuff here…your words and insights are right on target. The web is being woven and spun at a fever pitch right now…people are becoming so lost in fantasy they are practically begging for it now.
As for the weather, I am in Georgia (NE where the drought is at it’s worst) and I am becoming more and more suspicious of it. I am starting to think that they are holding back rain on purpose. It hadn’t rained in well over a month…the Governor prays for rain on the steps of the state Capitol, and within a week (Thanksgiving Day to be exact) it rains…crazy cloud patterns (which I don’t recall having seen much before) and daily spraying suggest severe weather manipulation at work.
What came of it? Georgia, Florida and Alabama arguing about the amount of run-off allowed from Georgia to keep shellfish alive downstream (in those other states)…why is this important? because they took the issue to the Feds…why is this important? Because it sets the stage for states to give up their water rights to the Federal Government…that’s the beginning of the end right there. Food, water, and shelter…our basic ability to survive being stripped away from us.
hey looks like we are back on track to bebop to Hawaii (most likely Kauai) in the spring to test the waters over there as a possible place to settle. We should connect up before then to exchange notes.
on the topic of freedom in your post… Well following a Taoist path is a bout free as free one can get in the human experience… barring all the ties and connections of course.
and in that it still a choice if one holds on to the baggage or not. Baggage does have its uses at times.

Hi Angela – great to see your insightful thought-connections surfing again… and showing how the fragments of insanity are knocking side-by-side with more rising fragments of consciousness…
And joining the dots between consciousness emergences will strengthen the thread that humanity weaves on the evolutionary path…
A pleasure to follow your words, and your hope….
A wonderfully woven text. I like the image of the surfboard; the notion of the approaching giant waveform (I have dreamt it) and we must ride it – transform ourselves through it – or else be consumed by it. Let us provide faith and comfort for each other. Stick together. Find the others. Thank you.
Hi Angela,
This is a great post, as intricately woven as the tao you surf. You’ve done a wonderful job of compiling a number of diverse lines of information into a single perspective.
Yet, I cannot help but wonder that the world would become an unlivable chaos if *everyone* “disconnected’, as you recommend. To be frank the vast majority is not sufficiently developed intellectually, emotionally, or spiritually for this to be workable. Thus, I wonder what sort of actionable recommendations can be made to government or other groups to help ameliorate the situation.
I actually think that the internet itself is one of the most important tools in preventing (or ameliorating) many of the effects that you describe, merely by increasing communication–this is also implicit in the previous commenter’s post. The Bard didn’t scribe, “The pen is mightier than the sword”, for no reason. Despite lurking infringements on privacy, it is amazing to me how *accepted* this new technology and way of life has become. It is almost as if this planet is growing a bio-mechanical implant to help unify the fractured mental doings of its most dominant and destructive species.
Just a few thoughts, anyway. Best of luck, and happy sufing!
Thanks for all the thoughts. The process of sharing and feedback on these topics is crucial – we build upon each other in this ever increasing spiral of consciousness.
Brian, your insight is great – I might suppose only very few will recognize the need to ‘disconnect’ on some level, and even fewer actually will – not from society as a whole in any ‘radical’ way, just on a level of consciousness that at least acknowledges the illusion; in other words, perhaps in a more Tao or Zen way, just being in the world but not of it. We sometimes have to empty our cups before they can be filled again.
Also, Todd, very interesting about the spraying and the drought. I’ll keep that in mind.
