Actually, in fact, billions of dollars are spent "educating" and training people to re-adjust their Minds, and their thinking, TO the "pseudo-realities" of everyday life, which are imposed by society (i.e., "vested interests"), and which do replace those actual realities of Life which are forbidden or denied to most people. In other words, most of us have been "programmed" (since birth) to accommodate the myriad aspects of everyday life which have been created BY "vested interests" to generate profits and benefits FOR those "vested interests" (Hey, even to the extent of "programming" most of us TO SEEK TO BECOME "vested interests" OURSELVES! I remember a CEO of a mortgage finance firm that I once worked for telling me to "get my piece of the pie" while the pie yet exists, because, according to his telling, the U.S. Government "is bankrupt" and all of society will be "going down the drain some day", and then I'll need every asset and personal tool that I possess, just to survive!), usually to the disadvantage of the "consumers" OF those policies, products, services, customs and habits. Most any one of us can surely think of something that would be quite different IF we would but let "reality" and everyday existence BE as it would naturally and normally BE, almost surely to the benefit of people everywhere, BUT for the rules, laws, customs, policies, practices or what have you, which DICTATE that one's life is to be lived IN SUCH A WAY that does, instead and inevitably, give "relief" (read "benefit"), most certainly in monetary form, TO the certain people or persons (OR, many times, their heirs) WHO "devised", or thought up/created, such policies and customs (or whatever) IN THE FIRST PLACE, in order to merely have the rest of humanity contributing TO the largesse/wealth OF those "founders" OF our nation, our businesses, our government (And "the people" did create "representative democracy", to ensure that the reign of "third-parties", AND the NON-responsibility of the people, "shall endure", fully negating Thomas Jefferson's beautiful intentions and words - "Of the People, By the People, and For the People!" - referring to a plurality of RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS!), our sports, our customs (Hey, consider "culture" itself, and all those cultural "issues" we can get to argue and fight about!), and whatever else which does yet linger and pervade our society and our lives AS the "pseudo-realities" which are yet so extant.

And those "pseudo-realities" do exist, in science, in business, in politics, AND IN EVERY WALK OF LIFE today. They are the ingrained (and usually learned) "programs", and "programming", which does cause us to GO THROUGH our everyday lives DOING AS SOMEONE ELSE has "trained us" to do (and it sure wasn't Pavlov). In doing so, we DO NOT, and cannot, GET IN TOUCH with the real and actual realities of our lives, BECAUSE WE CANNOT SEE THEM, much less anything else that is truly "real"! We do NOT KNOW Who and What we are! We ONLY "know" what we have been "programmed" to "know", which, as mentioned before, does benefit those who "founded" such "programs", and created the hierarchies which carry on those programs, policies, governments, etc. (AND TRULY, these words are written IN humanitarian concern for ALL of humanity, and NOT as any kind of "anarchist diatribe", as some folks might so proclaim, which is farthest from my reality as such could be, as to the Who and What of that which I am! In fact, see my Work, for various anti-anarchist commentary. ALSO see my Work for extensive details and analysis of various non-monetary, non-financial economic systems and economies of historical significance, ranging from the OA/OWB itself to several prior secular civilizations, where, by and large, the Golden Rule yet DOES, and once did, prevail.)

WHEN will humanity, and individuals, BREAK FREE, of the "bonds that bind us" - MENTALLY, and hold our Minds in a state of IMMATURITY - denying to us that maturity which is our birthright, and which could be ours, WERE IT NOT FOR that "Veil of Unknowing", which has been created BY Satan, through those "vested interests", TO hold us back, keep us in "bondage", and prevent us from actualizing and achieving evolutionary maturity of Mind and Self, in KNOWING Who and What we are AND what is humanity's rightful place and destiny IN All That Is???

Okay, so much for those three "tools" of Lucifer's influence. BUT, let me note here that, just to ensure the maximum of degeneracy and UNKNOWING (and to strengthen that "Veil of Unknowing"), he finally added one more "tool" to the mix. (Actually, he threw another "factor", in fact MANY other "factors", into the mix, which I will not call "tools", or tool #5, but which, nonetheless, help the confusion and degeneracy - and those "factors" INCLUDE drugs, alcohol, tobacco, coffee/tea, etc. No further comments needed on this.) Incidentally, I'll mention just one or two other of the many factors that Lucifer also throws into the mix - INDIGNATION, BEING "appalled", and RIGHTEOUS SUPERIORITY, all such (and more) to be called into "play", should anyone dare to question any or all of Lucifer's tools and factors, for keeping mankind in maya, confusion and subservience to Lucifer's negativity, and prevention of mankind from KNOWING the truth of what is really going on in society, the world and the cosmos.

Oh, one other thing, that I must mention, as to the many factors that Lucifer has thrown into that mix of negativity which he has unleashed upon mankind. And this one factor he did initiate way back when, in the early days of our present civilization, he did influence one man, to "draw" that infamous line in the sand, and to say to another man, "THIS side of the line IS MINE - and that side of the line IS YOURS!" And ever since then, mankind has labored under the twin evils of property ownership and possession ("HEY! Possession is 9/10ths of the law, isn't it?" Or so goes another one of Lucifer's mix of tools and factors of negativity.) And mankind has thusly gotten to fight many and sundry wars and legal battles over who "owns" what and who "possesses" what. And so does Lucifer gloat over the spoils and the ensuing negativity!

Okay, I just can't resist mentioning just one more factor, which Lucifer uses to keep us in maya and confusion, and that is COMMUNICATIONS, and more specifically the exchange of information through the use of LANGUAGE. Disregarding the fact of the "Babelization" of the world into the many and sundry "tongues" currently extant (I remember when the entire world spoke but one language!), my concern here is the inability of numbers of humanity, of the English-speaking "tongue", to REALLY UNDERSTAND the English language and its useage. Lucifer's contribution to this confusion is in the societal stress ("programming") upon people to "learn" and use "commercial-business-English" (the money influence again), resulting in great numbers of the populace who can use ONLY such "simple" English, and NOT understand, AT ALL, "classical" American-English, such as I do use in this report. This THEN enables Lucifer to create a further "division" within society, of those "educated" folks who DO understand "classical" American-English, and the lesser-educated (actually, lesser-English-conversant) folks, who more comfortably use "business-English" as their everyday means of communication. And this "division" reaches across the entire spectrum of society, even unto the ranks of professionals AND the well-educated. I had a professional, well-educated friend tell me, one time, that his mind just "glazes over", when he runs up against "classical" American-English. I was tempted to tell him to read Alan Bloom's bestseller, "The Closing Of The American Mind", but since Bloom wrote in "classical" American-English (relatively), I am afraid my friend would never have gotten past the first chapter, if even that far.

This "division" further enables either side to "look down its nose" at the other side, with the business-English folks complaining that normal "classical" American-English is "pedantic", and other such derogatory terms, while the "classical", and largely book-reading, segments of society, say that the business-useage folks are merely trying to impress each other with their "simplifications" of the English language (where the useage has become so "simple" that one word can mean completely different things to different people, depending on their cultural, political, etc. "programming", further adding to the conflict and obfuscation extant in Lucifer's societal negativity). The truth of the matter IS that "classical" American-English CAN BE DIFFICULT to read, FOR one who is NOT proficient therewith, BUT, with proficiency, the beauty and clarity of understanding is really amazing, in the comprehension enabled thereby, ESPECIALLY with regard to the nuances and distinctions implied and MEANT, within the useage of any one word or words. BUT, on the other hand, Lucifer does surely prefer that everyone use only business-English, and that all of the confusion and misunderstanding that is generated BY such "simplification" in communications, can keep his third-party-agents of "responsibility" - "representatives" (NO MATTER WHO - lawyers, etc., etc.) - BUSY (conflict and obfuscation again), trying to figure out exactly WHAT someone did, or does, or will, MEAN, when they say "such and such", using business-English (today's economy, with the use of business-English communications, is certainly NOT efficient)! Such is just another reason why I write in "classical" American-English. Not feeling the need to impress anyone, I merely let the truth, facts, realities and further content of what I have to say, STAND ON ITS OWN MERITS, and be fully understood BY ALL READERS HEREOF, WITHOUT any of Lucifer's "possibilities of misunderstanding" to complicate the understanding thereof. As I have noted at the beginning of this report, ANY person, of ANY age over 5 years, with proficiency of useage IN "classical" American-English, should certainly understand what I have put forth herein this report. (Besides, as an old graduate of Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" course, I really do support his philosophy of "beating-around-the-bush", or telling something three times, in three different ways, in order to get the point across.)

Anyway, Lucifer's fourth "tool" was COMPETITION! In doing so, he did ensure that there would only be minimal COOPERATION among humanity, and that competition, in league with the other three, would lead to wars, struggles, conflicts and much more (even to the "veneration" OF competition, in sports and the Olympics). Too many people today no longer feel (or are even aware of the fact) that "war is hell". Many think it is all a joke, or phony "theatrics", when they see and hear such movies as Stephen Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" (OR UNTIL they see that movie, experiencing a rebirth OF their awareness OF "what is", to a certain extent). Incidentally, ancient myths relate the tales of the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse". Surely, those myths did refer to these four "tools" of Lucifer's, by which he controls our world, although those ancient myth-tellers, in their semi-"knowing", probably gave the four horsemen more understandable names and attributes, rather than attempting to actually describe the results of Lucifer's four "tools", which are more apparent in today's world, to any KNOWING Mind.

"Incidentally, if competition is wrong, how does the family and parents teach children how to survive?"
Okay, children's "foot-races" across the room or the back-yard and so on - Don't they teach survival, rather than competition? It is our terminology, concepts and programming, that tell kids that what they are learning is competition, instead of survival! Also, in a monetary economy, one always has to be making more than the total number of "leeches" in one's pocket are draining off, in order to just survive. Such is NOT cooperation, in the use of the world's limited resources, but is, instead, that tool of competition, in the vying FOR those resources.

NOW, just think of this matter yourself, and of all of Lucifer's "tools"! Consider HOW, and by what means, YOU, yourself, are NOW "blocked" from KNOWING yourSelf - YOUR TRUE SELF, with all of your individual, and necessary, wants and needs, WHICH WOULD ENABLE YOU to actually, and truthfully, KNOW Who and What you "are", much less where you might be going (in Life)! THEN, add in the "representative" tool, as to those "representatives" out there, throughout society, who "take", and exercise, RESPONSIBILITY FOR US - AT OUR OWN BEHEST! THEN, add in the MONEY tool, as to the what, when, why, where and so forth, OF that third-party-agent-of-responsibility - MONEY, which does pervade our societies and civilization most thoroughly. And finally, throw in COMPETITION!

Actually, getting back to the money "tool", DOES human society NEED such books as "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Managing Your Money", or "Sylvia Porter's Managing Your Money", and so on, into investment books, retirement books, child-years money books, employment money books, and other such money-related books? MONEY - and Lucifer's influences regarding the existence and useage of money, SO PERVADE our societies, that such books well nigh make it an imperative - NAY, a NECESSITY - for us to learn how to use money to our advantage, in order to survive that "hostile" world out there.

WHOA! Wait a minute! Just look at WHAT we are saying! Can we not see that we are just falling into Lucifer's traps and playing his "games", just as he intends, in order to keep and maintain his control over us? AND BY THE WAY, WHO was it, WHO MADE IT A "HOSTILE" world ANYWAY??? Lucifer, that's WHO! So, let's look at what was just said in the previous paragraph.

Remember Lucifer's four "tools" of control over us?
First, money. That's what we are talking about here and now.
Second, programming. Well, there it is - telling us we have to "learn" how to "use" money (to insure our addiction thereto).
Third, competition. There it is again, this time telling us to "compete" FOR ADVANTAGE, instead of COOPERATING with others and all of society.
Fourth, and lastly, implied in it all, is Lucifer's directives that we seek "to know" OUTSIDE OF OURSELVES, this time in books, etc., TELLING US "what to do", rather than listening to, and being in touch with, our Self, our Soul, and that KNOWING which is WITHIN ourselves, as a wonderful part of All That Is!

SO, DO we need books (EVEN this one, IF we KNOW ourselves?), "telling us" what to do with our money? NO! We don't need such books! What we DO need is KNOWING - of ourSelves, our world, our human societies and existence, our history and the histories OF humanity, AND our "knowing" OF All That Is!!!

Now, just step back AND SEE WHAT WE HAVE CREATED! Oh yes, there ARE, and can be, "positives" TO the useage, and existence, of money, representation, competition, etc., in our world. BUT, I would venture to say that the REASONS, and the validities, FOR those "positives" (such as fulfillment of a specific need at a specific TIME), do NO LONGER EXIST, OR, have changed so thoroughly, that the original "reason" is no longer valid. Let's use the example of "representation", especially here in America. Once upon a time, in order to exercise your fundamental right to democratically vote, you "charged" another person with that responsibility to exercise your "vote", and then that "representative" probably rode 300 miles or more by horseback to fulfill that duty. BUT, THIS IS ANOTHER DAY and another age. PARTICIPATORY DEMOCRACY, by ALL OF HUMANITY, voting electronically or however, IS A REALITY TODAY (or at least a real possibility)! So that horseback "representative" - AND the tons of corruption therewith - IS NO LONGER NEEDED!

And no matter how much one may protest that money and all that it does enable is a valid contribution to society, all such protestations are null and void and do pale in significance when the mere existence of such a "mechanism" does so prevent ANY individual, much less ALL of society, from becoming Who and What that person and all of society could be, IF such mechanism did not exist! AND, as it has been said many times, "It's ALL UP TO US!"

SO, AGAIN I SAY, LOOK at what society, humanity (actually Lucifer) HAS CREATED! And think of HOW we might REGAIN our personal, DIRECT, RESPONSIBILITY for ourselves. MORE THAN THAT, consider HOW we might actually ACTUALIZE that evolutionary maturity of Mind, which is our birthright, BY REMOVING ALL of the negative spirituality, which does influence our daily lives and societies TO OUR DISTRESS!

Also, as one might all of a sudden realize, what I am talking about here is actually regaining SANE control of one's Life - where one is actually IN CONTROL of one's Life, rather than having to endure the insanity of Lucifer's tools, factors and other means of control over oneself, whether such insanity is exercised directly by such mechanisms or indirectly, by minions and "representatives" of Lucifer himself. (See my Work for a reprint of a most interesting Sermon, entitled "Getting Back in Control of Your Life!")

Incidentally (and VERY pertinently), I must remind the reader that POSITIVITY - God(Infinite Consciousness), does exist in this world - Lucifer's world - AND IN OURSELVES, to let us know that WE DO HAVE A CHOICE, IF we would but exercise our WILL and make that CHOICE for the POSITIVE path of Life, rather than the negative. Also, SPIRIT, of an individual, whether positive or negative, is the most potent and vital force in all of existence. Who knows the demons (negative spirit) and saints (positive spirit) that ANY human being can create, from the spirit dimensions of consciousness?

And, as I have also noted in my Work, the more one KNOWS oneSelf (the Self/Soul portion of local Mind), the more one becomes immersed in the POSITIVITY of Infinite Consciousness and the less one is susceptible to the negativity of the Luciferian Complex of spirituality. In other words, as Jungian Psychology and other disciplines have pointed out, the more one KNOWS the Self/Soul, the more one can breach that Veil of Unknowing and thusly access deeper levels of consciousness beyond the Self. (Actually, it IS possible for the Self/Soul to be negative, and such persons DO EXIST, but I am not going to discuss that matter here.)

If someone doesn't engage themselves in the "pseudo-reality" of today's society, by not participating in the monetary economy, not engaging in adversarial and competitive activities - legal, sports, jobs, etc. - and by not otherwise allowing themselves to be influenced by that Luciferian Complex, then WHAT does one DO instead? WHY, participate IN LIFE - in the realities OF All That Is, whether such be people, nature, learning (and I'm talking about REAL learning, NOT Lucifer's "programming" - real learning in which everyone can learn FROM EACH OTHER - after all, if each one of us KNOWS something different and unique, which is, after all, that which IS ours to "know", and to "be" - it would be a most wonderful joy just communicating with, and "learning" from, each and every one of us) or whatever! Exposure to TRUE REALITY CAN BE ADDICTIVE, and is a sure cure for the "pseudo-realities" of our nominal everyday life in today's civilization. In fact, the thing is, most, and probably ALL, of mankind, would give up Lucifer's ways and influences IMMEDIATELY, IF they KNEW OF, and were aware of, how Lucifer was corrupting their lives, AND they HAD A VALID alternative CHOICE. Well, God HAS given us a CHOICE, and He/She IS with us! And hopefully, this report (and my Work) can bring such awareness and KNOWING to humanity, AND present (or at least engender) that alternative CHOICE, for POSITIVITY, that most of us are looking for.

Incidentally, one further explication here, which I feel may be necessary to enable clarity of what I have said. And this will be my final reference to Quantum Physics principia (QUFD, actually), in stating a principle of Physics to explain a basic fundamental truth and reality. Earlier in this Report, I stated that ALL that can be "known", BY the individual, IS already available TO the evolutionarily mature human Mind and is already within us. Now, in the preceding paragraph, I have stated that it is a wonderful thing to "learn" from others, which, some folks might say, seems to be a contradiction.

Well, actually there is no contradiction. Because, if you will remember your fundamentals of Physics, ALL "possibilities/probabilities", and "realities", ARE available - POTENTIALLY available - TO the human Mind. THAT is the context of the earlier statement, as to the fact, and the truth, that ALL KNOWING does, in fact, reside within us, WITH our "connection" TO All That Is, WHEN we are living IN THE MOMENT! And that is also the context of the previous statement, referring to "learning" from others. Because it refers to "learning" that is enabled "in-the-moment", when both parties to such an experience (in the Socratic "tradition", perhaps?) are "living" that experience, and that exchange of information, AND "being-there" (with each other), IN THE MOMENT, where the individuals are "One" with All That Is; i.e., their consciousness has transcended their local Minds and "connected" TO that consciousness BEYOND the Self.

"Okay, but what does it take to do that?"
Well, as this Report has been about, it takes actualization - ACTIVATION, a spiritual ACTIVISM - OF our evolutionarily mature Mind, to accomplish such. It takes a "participation" IN LIFE (NOT Lucifer's "pseudo-realities" of Life), and a WILLINGNESS to "engage" oneSelf, WITH all that is REAL, and vital, and important, TO humanity and to the individuals thereof. Engaging each other, "learning" those unique things FROM each other, which further enable one's own individual, unique, INNER KNOWING (the "Giving" and "Receiving", which does constitute "Doing Unto Others, as you would have Others Do Unto Yourself"), and that understanding, and KNOWING, OF each other, and ALL others - THAT IS real "learning", and IS "activation" OF those potentialities WITHIN US, which only we, as individuals, can "create", and bring into "reality", BY the self-ordering OF that ground-state which is OURS ALONE - the individual Mind.

For there is a whole 'nother world out there (actually, WITHIN US), IF humanity can get over its addictions with money, competition and the other tools of Lucifer's negativity and influence upon us. There IS a destiny for mankind/humanity - to MAKE LIFE WORK, with the COOPERATION OF ALL, in providing peace, joy, love and happiness for all!

In this respect, we do seek HEROES, but we are forever seeking them OUTSIDE OF OURSELVES, when WE could be our own HEROES! The heroes among us DO show us the way, but in the end, we must ourselves be our own heroes. But then, mankind has always sought to go where no one has gone before (in THIS civilization, that is). That quest has taken many and sundry forms, rituals, customs, beliefs and such, but has always been the search to "cross over" to another place, another level of "being", where one "is One with that which IS".

Well, that place, that level, is the consciousness of the Self, the Soul, and all that is beyond the (s)elf. And, as I have said, such is ONLY possible WHEN one KNOWS oneSelf. THAT is the quest, which all of mankind seeks, and which is possible ONLY by putting aside the negativity of that Luciferian Complex. We CAN find ourSelves, and find that courage WITHIN ourSelves, to WILL, to CHOOSE, to put aside, and overcome, that negativity in our lives - the Veil of Unknowing. THIS - is the path TO positivity, to Infinite Consciousness (God), and TO our future, AS we will have, with the positivity of Infinite Consciousness (NOT the negativity of Lucifer), created such OURSELVES! Tom Hanks, upon accepting the 1998 Emmy Award for the TV mini-series, "From the Earth to the Moon", said it most clearly: "ANYTHING is possible, if we put our Minds to it!"

By peaceful and democratic means, we CAN change our lives and our existence, IN, and through, the KNOWING, of exactly Who and What we "are" - individually AND as a people. We CAN eliminate the drugs, the corruption, the violence, the gangs, the vested interests, and ALL of those negative Luciferian influences, upon our lives and existence. We CAN replace negativity with positivity. As a few truisms, from the hit TV series "Touched By An Angel" have stated:
"Hold on to Faith, that, with God, good will prevail!"
"Evil has no power over you unless we let it!"
"Evil flies when good men do nothing!"
And "God Loves You!"
So remember that we can do so BECAUSE WE ARE PART AND PARCEL OF that consciousness which does pervade the Cosmos - Infinite Consciousness (God). WHEN we WILL IT, we CAN achieve that evolutionary maturity of Mind, which can enable us to TRULY KNOW ourSelves, the Cosmos and All That Is. And remember, in doing so, Infinite Consciousness IS WITH US! As the theme song from "Touched By An Angel" says:
"When you walk down that road, Baby, I'll be with you!"

Aum, Peace, Amen.
