DECONSTRUCTING IDOLATRY IN THE STAGE-WORLD
General concept - what is idolatry ?
In general terms, idolatry can be defined as the act of attributing to
or giving some person, people or entity an alleged position of
superiority or "importance", either because he/she is idolized or often
mentioned by the so-called "media" around you in the STAGE WORLD, or
because he/she is idolized or often mentioned by the persons
(characters) around you in your social group.
By 'media around you' I mean all the news that penetrate your perception
field, that is, that very news that you see, hear, read, watch or hear
someone else referring to. It is generally the media of your region or
country.
By 'social group' I mean the characters present in your routine that have
some similarity to you in the STAGE WORLD : the same job, same course, same
family, same age, same ethnic origins, same nationality, etc..
Due to a series of factors that will be analysed, the illusion of idolatry
is especially strong when applied to actors (actresses), singers, models and
sports icons in the STAGE WORLD, although you may consider that it can also
be applied - albeit in a restricted scale - to persons belonging to several
careers, jobs, social or religious groups, and occupying positions of power
in these groups in the STAGE WORLD and/or of leadership in terms of THEIR
media exposure.
So now let's dissect comprehensively the illusion of idolatry in the
STAGE WORLD, as well as some means of deconstructing it.
The same importance of every one of us
First of all, your brain may need a generic anchor to help you
deconstructing all the facets of idolatry in the stage world. This
anchor may be the notion that every one of us has the same importance, either
in the STAGE or in the BACKSTAGE reality.
No character in the STAGE WORLD is more important than YOU, and
YOU are not more important than any of THEIR characters in the STAGE
WORLD. These two basic concepts are very important.
Now that the hurricane is practically over in the entire STAGE
world, you can say that the character of the President of the United States,
for instance, is as important as that of a vegetable street vendor in Korea,
which is as important as the character of an architect in Italy, or as the
character of a corrupt banker in New Zealand. You name it, provided that
you are talking about a character, that is, someone with an activated
crystal and therefore part of the 95 % of the STAGE WORLD population
that are characters.
What is a character ? Well, from the point-of-view of a
FOREIGNER,
a character perhaps could be defined as a collection of attributes (including
a shell) that pretend to perceive reality in a certain way. That's what
Carlos Castaneda would call a pretended assemblage point.
By 'attributes', I mean every aspect of a character : physical attributes
like age, race and voice frequency; patterns of behavior or of emotional
reaction; little manias and idiosyncrasies, gestural expression; general
opinions, likes and dislikes; belief system; level of knowledge in this or
that area; manual skills; even consumer preferences.
For them, shells are just modeling clays. Changing characters is just
like changing clothes. That's a very ordinary fact. That's why the keyword
CLOTHES (2) is used to refer to shells.
THEY sometimes borrow shells here and there, and you don't even know who
is inside each character (apart from your beloved one), if it's a
stunt, a foreigner or its original occupant. You probably
have seen something like this occurring already, perhaps during the passage
of the hurricane years ago. Exercise your memory.
You may realize that even without being a foreigner, anyone of THEM
may change characters, keeping the same shell or changing it slightly.
After a certain period of training, everyone is free to change
characters, assuming a new character guideline in the STAGE WORLD, or
leaving the STAGE WORLD forever, or yet disappearing from the character
without being noticed and returning afterwards (or not). Every nagual
is free.
If you're a PAN, remember that you will be allowed to assume
definitively your original shape some day in the future, so that you'll
have the genetic capability of changing shells easily, as well as characters.
In a certain way, characters are just specific and pretended
assemblage points. They are just a particular way of perceiving
reality and no one of these ways of perceiving reality is better nor worst
than the other.
As a consequence of all this, a famous character in the STAGE WORLD is
just one more character, as important as any anonymous character. The famous
character is NOT a 'special' person, a 'divine' or 'superior' creature to
be put in a pedestal and worshipped. He/she is human too, he/she is also
a citizen in the STAGE WORLD like anyone else.
Although you probably won't see these images anywhere, the famous
character in the STAGE WORLD also defecates, picks his/her teeth after a
meal, has a hole in the socks and a tousled hair after waking up in the
morning (no second-meanings here please). The difference is that they
have the attention of the media circus, and the anonymous doesn't. But if
it's a circus, what difference does it make after all ? It's their
misfortune, not yours.
Remember : the BACKSTAGE has no "media circus", no idolatry and no
mythology. After the arrival of the 'GLOBAL D-DAY', there will be
no "media circus" anymore.
Some of THEIR characters are stubborn idolaters or idolatresses. So
every time these characters use idolatry-based values around you, you
may just mentalize as an initial archetype : "IDOLATRY IN THE STAGE WORLD"
or "IDOLATRY IN THE MATRIX" or yet "IDOLATRY IN THE TONAL". If you want,
you may add : "SAME IMPORTANCE" and/or "MEDIA CIRCUS".
The creation of idolatry and its mesmerization in the social groups
Since the ancient times, neutral people have had a tendency to
"describe reality through misery and suffering", as Agent Smith (from
'The Matrix') would say. This occurs due to a series of factors,
including religion and its role through the times. Part of this description
of reality can be credited to the 'idolatry' issue.
The practice of dividing the STAGE WORLD reality into little
pieces, attributing values to each piece and thinking in terms of
false dichotomies and external judgement has established a
fertile land for idolatry to grow. And the neutral people selfish
wish of "receiving" and of "wanting more" of something to
oneself than to the others has become the perfect seed.
By 'false dichotomies' I mean "right versus wrong", "winner versus
loser", "sin versus virtue", "rich versus poor", "beautiful versus ugly",
and so on.
By 'values' I mean everything valued in the STAGE society (like the
so-called "beauty", money, richness, fame, intellect, honesty, professional
"fulfillment", trophy or prize in a competition, etc.) or unvalued (e.g.,
manual jobs, the so-called ethnic "minorities", the so-called "ugliness",
baldness, fat, poverty, physical disabilities, etc.).
And by 'external judgement', I mean an external force 'measuring',
'rewarding' or 'punishing' you in terms of your own 'values'.
Over the last six decades or so, THEY have manipulated the pre-existent
tendency of neutrals to idolize people that fulfill their values of
"right", "success", "beauty" or "happiness", and their willingness to
imitate these idols' behaviors and follow their acts or opinions.
THEY have artificially placed people pertaining to THEIR SIDE (i.e. YOUR
SIDE) in positions of power in terms of fame and media exposure : famous
actors and actresses, musicians, TV anchors , newscasters, talk show hosts,
writers and artists. The OTHER SIDE did the same, but they have concentrated
more on businessmen. Money was their language.
Notice that the majority of people pertaining to one of these categories
above were not neutral people. They were from one side or from
the other. Practically all the cinema and music icons of the 50's and 60's,
all the TV series' main characters of the 60's and 70's, the main TV
anchors and talk show hosts, and so on.
And there was a permanent hurricane over the remaining famous
neutrals in such a way that he/she would probably be forced to choose
one of the SIDES of the WAR and therefore would not be a neutral
person anymore.
THEY have also manipulated the cohesion rules inherent to all social
groups and friendship circles to best serve the purposes or strategic
movements of the WAR in each moment.
Generally speaking, members of a social group need to share a minimum
code of values to be accepted into the group, and may be induced to express
these values in order not to be isolated or even expelled from the group.
THEY have infiltrated a vast number of social groups and friendship
circles of neutral people. Using idolatry and THEIR
artificially-placed idols (among other elements), THEY have had the means of
evaluating and analyzing - through thought reading - the wishes and desires
of the other members of the group, as well as their weaknesses.
And THEY have actually created idolatry in the minds of their
groupmates or circlemates by praising THEIR own idols and
inducing the others to like them and even buy their products stuffed with
keywords. Neutrals in general are very suggestible and vulnerable
to similarities.
"Man is infinitely malleable."
(from the book '1984', by George Orwell; phrase said by the character O'Brien - the brainwasher - to the character Winston Smith - the brainwashed)
An additional element is the fact that some of THEIR characters occupying
idol positions in the STAGE WORLD were also used as examples of behavior,
influencing patterns of life for entire generations and describing reality
in a way that tried to "push" ideologies and dichotomies to a positive angle
(albeit yet dividing reality into pieces), rather than the movement of
pushing it to a negative angle perpetrated by the OTHER SIDE.
Mind reading and artificial fame
-
Added on May 09 th, 2000.
Using THEIR main satellite to analyze and evaluate the overall
state of mind of neutral people and their willingness to accept
this or that idea in each moment, as well as performing person-to-person,
individual thought reading, THEY have managed to transform anyone THEY
wanted into a famous person (character) in the STAGE WORLD.
THEIR characters who have been assigned missions in positions of
fame in the STAGE WORLD simply had to say or perform or sing or be whatever
neutrals expected to hear or see.
These characters have also had all the doors open for them, through
the artificial movements and performances of a number of supporting
characters in the STAGE WORLD, infiltrated in the industries of motion
picture, TV series and film production, music and recording, news and media,
and so on.
The characters occupying these positions weren't really worried about
being "famous" in the STAGE WORLD, as their values came from the BACKSTAGE
reality. THEY had their crystals activated, their helicopter
trips and got used to describe reality in non-dichotomous and more profound
ways.
THEIR goal was to use these strategic positions to fight the OTHER SIDE
and to try to influence neutral people in a positive way.
The fate of the STAGE WORLD was at stake at that epoch, as the two sides
were fighting each other in the BACKSTAGE. And the neutral people
were the key to define the results of this WAR : whether the majority of
neutrals chose one side or the other (and therefore stop being
neutrals), the balance of power would tend to one group or to the
other.
Idolatry and the media reality makers
-
Added on May 17 th, 2000.
You were born a neutral person. Since the day you were born,
your brain has been bombarded with a specific description of reality,
coming at first from your neutral parents and then from the society
around you.
Your mind was bombarded with things it should believe in. Naturally,
you were given no other option than also believing in this specific
description of reality, which Carlos Castaneda used to call the 'tonal
reality' and which now, after the hurricane, you may call the
'Matrix reality' or the 'Stage World reality'.
Idolatry is part of this particular description of reality, now
after the hurricane in its "pretended mode". You were given no
other option than believing in the pre-existent idolatry, the same way you
were given no other option than believing in the pre-existent
'values' of the society you were
born.
"We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented. It's as simple as that."
(Christoff giving an interview in 'The Truman Show')
From the beginning, neutral minds are induced to believe in these
values of society as being 'real' (values that may vary in some aspects
according to regional particularities, such as the predominant religion and
culture in a certain area). They are induced to idolize famous people (or
characters) that fulfill their ideas of "happiness", "right", "success",
"beauty", etc., as well.
Generally speaking, nobody wants to be isolated, so there's a natural
tendency for neutral people to conform themselves to the particular
description of reality represented by these society 'values' that everybody
apparently shares. There's a natural willingness to imitate or follow
the subliminal code of values or collection of premises that apparently
permeates society as a whole.
The idolatry machine within the media and advertising industries is
organized in such a way that everybody is induced to believe in the stamp
of 'importance' given to an idol or famous person by the media reality
makers, and thus to behave in society as if this 'stamp' was 'real'.
The majority of THEIR characters (and formerly of neutrals) have
the habit of chatting on subjects that are present in the media (and
therefore that are given the stamp of "importance") rather than on more
profound and personal issues, the true ones. Issues linked to the heart.
You can say that the media and propaganda reality makers define for
your brain what is important and what is not important in society,
either by influencing your mind directly or by influencing the minds of the
people around you.
They create lifestyles and 'ways of life'. They create social behaviors,
night life points, entertainment patterns and leisure habits. They create
fashion. They create consumption dreams. They associate the stamp of
'importance' with issues like politics, economics, money and professional
success. They praise or criticize anyone they want.
They make the rules of 'reality' in society. You watch.
The OTHER SIDE used to describe the Stage World neutral population
in general as a giant herd of cattle. Do you remember ? Well, from this
specific point-of-view, perhaps they were not far from the truth...
I'll give an illustrative example about idolatry and these "reality
makers". Let's say you're going to open a new restaurant in your
city. You live in a large metropolis that is also a cultural center.
Nobody knows you or your restaurant. What do you need to promote your
restaurant ?
One of the options you have is just calling the media (preferentially a
journalist of your relations) and inviting a group of famous people to the
inauguration event.
The media will take a few pictures, interview you and also the famous
persons (e.g. actors, writers, sporting teams players, singers, etc.) about
their "impressions" on your food, the decoration of the place, its ambience,
etc. You may notice that not a single famous person will openly
criticize your restaurant or your food to the media, even if everyone of
them actually has hated the food and/or the place.
Why ? Because each one of them is an interested part : either he/she
wants to appear often in the media or feels embarrassed because he/she was
invited and is having a free meal paid by the owner of the restaurant (that
is, by you).
That's the very nature of hypocrisy in society : people in general
and economic groups in particular (including the media) don't tend to talk
the truth. They tend to omit what they know and just talk what is more
convenient in each moment to mantain the status quo of the system and/or
defend their own interests.
I'm not saying you should "fight hypocrisy" in the Stage World or initiate
a crusade against the so-called "Establishment" or a "ideological guerrilla
warfare" to try to indoctrinate people around you (I mean, characters
around you). Just saying you must be aware of all this illusion. If you
want to free your brain from THEIR control, you must demolish their
hypocrisy, and lies, and cynicism, and sarcasm and illusions within your
mind, piece by piece, over and over. That's all.
In the given example, even if one of the famous guests dares to criticize
openly the restaurant, the media probably won't publish
his/her opinion, because it's also an interested part. The journalist was
first called to promote this new "gastronomical option" in the city or
in the neighborhood. And that's what he/she is going to do. In an extreme
situation, the media could publish this opinion and reduce it to an exotic
or isolated position, associating eccentricity with the public image of this
famous person.
The media has the power to select and edit everything, deciding which
portions of reality they choose to show or not show. So you will read only
"impressions" like "this dish is superb", "it has a cozy ambience",
"the prices are accessible" (even that the famous person who said that hasn't
paid a cent for the meal).
And because people tend to follow what the media defines as being 'real'
and what their idols or famous people do, your restaurant will probably
have a good beginning in the Stage World, or in the Matrix.
In this example, idolatry has been used as a multiplying effect to
boost the frequency of the public into the place.
People will go there because "everybody goes", "everybody is
saying it is good". Well, who is 'everybody' here ? Just a small group
of media reality makers and a handful of famous people ! That's how social
behaviors or habits are created or exaggerated. That's how reality in
society is created in the Stage World.
The example given above is merely a simplified illustration, more
appropriate to a totally neutral society. The reality of the Stage
World is much more complex. The name says it all : STAGE
World.
In the pre-hurricane period, for instance, this very
restaurant could have been used as one of the entrances of an Operation
Center in the BACKSTAGE. Or as a supporting point for military
movements against the OTHER SIDE, or perhaps a meeting point for
people belonging to OUR SIDE, or yet a watch station to observe the OTHER
SIDE's movements nearby.
From the aftermath of the hurricane to the present time,
you can still add other variables.
Things have become more "artificially flavored" since then. If you
are a
survivor of the hurricane and you have actually opened this
restaurant in the Stage World, THEY will generate artificial boost-and-drop,
roller coaster-like movements in the frequency of your restaurant. THEIR
characters will try to judge you and your thoughts.
Even if you don't value money, even if you don't share concepts like
"success" or "professional fulfillment" in the Stage World, even so, if
your thoughts go in a certain direction after their brainwashing,
then THEY may try to allegedly "reward" you with an overwhelming frequency in
the place (and describe reality for you deliriously as if you have been
"elected" or "chosen").
And if your thoughts (or 'reflected thoughts') go to the opposite
direction, then THEY may try to "punish" you with an almost empty house (and
synchronize this alleged "punishment" with the inculcation of Stage society
'values' in your brain, with or without their sick keywords, in order to
take energy from you).
YOU KNOW. That's the very nature of reality nowadays. In any of the
cases you can lose energy if you don't react properly with your own words,
thoughts or mentalization.
Idols and idolatry have also changed after the hurricane.
Sometimes, THEIR famous characters in the Stage World produce a carnival
of performances that is covered by the media and used as part of the
linguistic circus to brainwash survivors' minds.
One of these days, for instance, you may see a famous director in the
Stage World having a "scandalous" affair with his Japanese stepdaughter ...
(by the way, scandalous for whom ? For the non-dichotomous minds of their
characters ?)
And if you're a female PAN survivor, you may well identify yourself
with the keyword JAPANESE. Oh, and she has a famous stepfather ! Then your
brain may be also subliminally hit by the derived word 'stepfather' (from
keyword FATHER), meaning "the guy who would substitute your beloved
husband (that THEY call 'FATHER') and whom you should have sex with, in order
to reduce your 'vampirism' ". Within THEIR sickly second-meaning
vocabulary, it would be a kind of a brother. Not any 'brother', a
'special' brother, one who will substitute your husband ! "Ah, and he is
famous !", they add subliminally to your brain.
What a sick illusion, isn't it ?
I suggest you mentalize : "LINGUISTIC NEWS IN THE STAGE WORLD" and
"IDOLATRY IN THE STAGE WORLD".
And if you are NOT a female PAN survivor, then this
news may be used to brainwash you anyway : using the first meaning of the
words and dichotomizing reality between 'right' and 'wrong', THEIR characters
commenting on this news would be trying to 'fish' your opinion regarding
this case, or yet your criterion regarding the issue "difference of age in a
couple". In this case, mentalize : "OPINION FISHING" or "CRITERION FISHING",
according to their apparent intention. (you'll see more on the 'fishing
techniques' later on). And remember : that's your
archetypes, your exercise, your reality, so you choose how to label,
categorize and compartmentalize THEM in your mind.
Illusory projection of other people's fame over your brain and its implications
- Added on May 24 th, 2000
Another consequence of idolatry is the projection of other people's fame
over the anonymous' brains and the deviant way anonymous people behave in
result of this.
Anonymous neutral persons (in the pre-hurricane period) or
anonymous characters in the Stage World (mainly after it) tend to treat
famous people (or idols) as "special" or "important" persons, more
"important" than themselves. They just repeat the subliminal code of values
they see in the media all the time or they hear people saying around them.
Idolatry changes behaviors among anonymous people.
As seen in the previous example, famous
people are often interviewed and asked to give their opinions about any
subject. They are frequently present in social events covered by the media.
They are given invitations, free tickets, special "discounts" and
sometimes even gratuitous consumption in shops, restaurants, night clubs,
etc., in spite of the fact that in many cases their salaries are much bigger
than the average consumer's and that in some cases their fortunes have
already reached many million dollars in the Stage World, in the
Matrix.
The owner of the shop, club, restaurant, etc., or the promoter of an
event, for instance, wants to take a ride in their fame. He (she)
wants people to think of his (her) place as a place frequented by the
famous, he (she) wants people to go there because of this fact, he (she)
wants to sell more, and he (she) wants to induce the famous person to praise
the place, or at least subliminally buy the famous person's silence
in case he (she) doesn't like something there.
Famous persons have easy access to the media and this is a power that is
feared by shopkeepers or entrepreneurs, especially by those who don't have
this same power.
In general terms, no anonymous person wants to fight an idol inside the
media idolatry machine. An anonymous fighting an idol in the media would be
like taking a portion of meat from
the mouth of hungry lions and then trying to argue to the lions that they
should be vegetarians ! You probably would feel yourself like a heretic
being devoured by lions in the Colosseum of Ancient Rome, under the cheers of
the crowd (that is, of the idolaters).
Sometimes, the idolater (or idolatress) simply doesn't know why he (she) is
being especially kind or gentle to the famous person. In this case, he (she) just
does what he (she) sees other people like him (her) doing with famous persons
in the television. He (she) is just imitating a pre-existent pattern of
behavior in society.
You must probably have even heard of extreme cases in which an ongoing
theft or burglary was suspended when the thief or burglar realized the
victim was famous. This is idolatry taken to its last consequences.
Idolatry aggregates 'value' to products and objects.
Famous persons' very lives in the Stage society are sometimes tracked
down by gossip magazines and tabloids. People buy them. Idols are trapped
into the idolatry machine.
Ordinary objects belonging to famous persons or idols (either present
idols or former ones) are given the status of "important" objects and
disputed in competed auctions.
A simple signature of a famous person is called an "autograph" and may be
put in an album to show friends with pride that you are "important" because
you have a microslice of fame that they don't. Or may be negotiated by
thousands and thousands of dollars in the Matrix, in the Stage World.
The role of the media as an instrument of power and the creation of sex symbols
-
(Updated on August 11 th, 2000)
The media reality makers do their part. By feeding and sponsoring idolatry
in a variety of ways, they also contribute to maintain the system and to
reinforce their condition as the definers of reality in society.
Take a look at the definition given to the word 'news' by a
dictionary :
"news. noun. spoken or written information about what has happened."
(English Dictionary for Students, Peter Collin Publishing, 1999)
Well, although it's not literally a lie, it's far from the truth.
People in general never contest the role of the media as reality makers.
They just accept everything passively, because they were educated to believe
in the system.
The fact is that the media has the power to select the portions of
reality they will show and the ones they won't, as well as the moment they
choose to show. They also have the power to transform a tiny local incident
into a national frenzy, if they want.
They are the ones who give the stamp of 'authenticity' or 'importance' to
a happening, a stamp that people accept passively. They will never
confess their role as instruments of power in producing happenings.
I'll give an example. Let's say you live in a mid-size city that already
has a reputation for being a relatively violent city. One of these days you
may read the following main headline in the front page of a paper :
"Street gangs frighten the city" (headline)
and "Crime rate increased by 20% in March" (sub-heading)
What they forgot to say, for instance, is that they are talking about a
couple of incidents that took place in the previous day in 2 or 3 (out of
50) neighborhoods and that have produced - say - 14 victims of robbery, not
the whole city.
They are speaking on behalf of the city, attributing an alleged state of
mind to the citizens as a whole, like if they had carte blanche to
do that, but they didn't conduct any opinion poll and the citizens didn't
vote for any proposal in a referendum.
They have interviewed half a dozen passers-by who have obviously answered
what they wanted to hear, sometimes with the intention of appearing in the
"news" or just to get rid of the reporter. "Are you frightened of the
gangs ?", the reporter asks. No one will say in cold blood : "No, I'm
not, this happens every day of the year in some part of the city with a small
number of victims, although in the majority of the cases you - reporters -
are not there to report".
And then they come with the subheading : "Crime rate increased by 20% in
March". It's true, and they cite the source : the stats provided by the
Police Department. And if you go check out the info, it's there : compared
to February, crime rate really increased by 20% in March. They interpret
the statistics the way it's more convenient for them. Sometimes the same
statistical table can produce two opposite headlines in different papers.
What they forgot to say, for instance, is that just three months before,
in December of the previous year, the crime rate was twice the rate of this
month of March. So the crime rate decresased by 100% when compared to three
months before. They know, but they don't mention that, or if they do, it's
there on page C-46, in the little box at the bottom corner, where only a
handful of readers with lots of spare time will find it.
They knew it since December, but this hasn't been "news" in December,
so why it's "news" now ? Because now there's an internal political
turmoil in the Police Department, and one of the factions has connections to
the media, and wants to fry the other politically.
The paper wants to sell more, and the officer who has connections to the
media (and who will be protected under the anonymity of the source)
wants the position of his chief. That's how many "news" are born in society.
That's how the media often manipulates the elements of power in society
and/or is manipulated by them symbiotically to produce 'reality' in society.
The more powerful the element is, the bigger the manipulation and the
symbiosis.
Now read again the headline and the sub-heading given in this example.
You may be impressed : not only the sub-heading was distorted, but also the
headline was manipulated, because the paper has transformed an ordinary fact
into a front-page main headline. The paper is not lying. What the paper
won't ever admit is that it's an instrument of power that creates reality.
Perhaps "news" could be best defined as : "a selected collection of
pieces and descriptions of reality, put together by a group of reality makers
that decide what is going to be given the stamp of 'importance' in society,
as well as the moment chosen to do that."
And by anchoring your perception in subjects connected to power in society
- like politics, economics, idolatry, etc. -, and/or linked to more dense
notions such as competition (sports), "success" in the Stage World, the
"measure-to-prove" premise (science), the "something-to-worship" premise
(religion), etc., THEY define for your brain what you must consider to be
"real", inducing you to forget about the reality of the Backstage and
deviating you from thinking of more important issues, issues linked to
your heart.
"The Matrix cannot tell you who you are"
(Trinity, in "The Matrix")
In the world of characters, hurricanes and linguistic
prisoners where we live, you have to add yet other elements.
The so-called "news" nowadays - mainly after the hurricane - are
produced purposefully with the intention of : a) creating a
linguistic circus to
manipulate the survivors' minds; b) of anchoring his/her perception
in the 'reality' of the Stage World; or yet c) of maintaining the overall
state of affairs in relation to a potential neutral observer.
And if you're a survivor and want to change the world
(that is, the Stage World) with your acts or thoughts, then THEY may
manipulate the "news" in your city or country just to keep you mesmerized in
your reality prison, whether making you feel "rewarded" or "punished" by
the behavior of their characters in the media. Through a carefully
orchestrated network of performances, THEY can
trumanize
happenings around you via your local "news".
Once more I must quote Morpheus, from "The Matrix" :
"Welcome to the desert of the real."
With idolatry it's not different. Idolatry can aggregate 'value'
to the face or physical body of the famous person, especially if this
famous person has a bigger-than-average apparent "beauty" level.
Using advanced techniques of shells production in the Stage World, placing
flattering adjectives in association with the image of a certain person, and
hammering this image for your brain over and over, the media and propaganda
reality makers - along with the entertainment industry - can literally
transform any person having a bigger-than-average apparent "beauty"
level into a sex symbol.
It means that, depending on the region or neighborhood you live, they
can choose 1 out of 3 or perhaps 1 out of 5 persons (especially if you
consider a group of apparently young persons) and then "elect" this person
to be worked by their reality maker machine.
Maybe your brain is so polluted with their idolatry machine that you may
find this hard to believe. But if you dissect comprehensively their
techniques of production as well as the
flattering adjectives and ideas artificially placed in the papers, magazines,
billboards and TV programs in connection with these persons, you'll find out
that there's a lot of people in your area, probably in your gym, and/or in
your university, and/or in your workplace, and/or in the vicinities of your
residence - perhaps including you, even if you don't believe in it - that
could perfectly be transformed into a sex symbol by their machine.
In other words, they have the power to create idols and sex symbols in
society. And this instrument of power is used to boost the profits of the
entertainment industry (motion picture, TV series, videos, sports, music,
shows, radio stations, movie theaters, video rentals, etc.), of the
electronic industry (TV sets, VCRs, sound systems, walkmans, DVDs, etc.),
of the fashion industry, of the propaganda industry, of the merchandising
and licensing industries, and of course of the own media industry - where
else everybody could reach millions of potential consumers through their
advertisements ?
What is important to say here is that the person that has been arbitrarily
"elected" to be a "sex symbol" within their machine is NOT a divine creature,
nor a "megacute" person, as they want your brain to believe. It is just an
ordinary person, as "cute" as many people in your gym, and/or university,
workplace, neighborhood, and so on, possibly as "cute" as you, if you have
a "bigger-than-average beauty level". All the rest is just idolatry.
They first explore angles and colors, lighting and close-ups, sexy clothes
and makeups, artificial tan and stuffings under the clothes, depilation and
teeth withening, and a thousand ways of professionaly producing the hair
(I mean, industrially, using a team of experts). These things artificially
produce kundalini for your brain. For further details, take a look at the
section
"The cheating comparisons technique".
Then the media reality makers create and attach to this image the label
"sex symbol", through articles, essays, reports and stories. They show
produced pictures of the idol to "corroborate" their flattering adjectives.
They create, praise and idolize the image of that person for your brain.
They create a fantasy in your mind. They reinforce it through their articles
and through the propaganda so many times that you finally believe in it.
In other words, they create reality for your brain.
You watch.
Since the day you were born in the Stage World, your brain has been
bombarded with an idolatry-based description of reality, and naturally it
had no other option than believing in this description, along with its
premises.
And people around you usually reinforce this fantasy for you brain. People
just repeat what they read or watch in the media. They are idolaters and
idolatresses, they are fans. Their characters spend too much time in front
of the television - the heart of the idolatry machine - and pretend to
believe in the circus. Watch out ! They are all just pretending, especially
the ones who have their crystals activated for more than three/four
years by now... (year 2000)
Again I must repeat : I'm not saying you should (or should not) fight
idolatry in the Stage World, in a crusade against hypocrisy and/or against
the entertainment, propaganda, fashion and media industries. Just saying that
if you want to free your brain from their control, you must deconstruct also
the illusion of idolatry within your mind. You must be aware of every
little piece of idolatry that penetrates your perception field.
And remember that in the world of vampirism and
anti-vamp exercises,
you may want to use this very illusion created by idolatry and "sex symbols"
as an additional way of reducing your vampirism.
Here are some suggestions of archetypes to be mentalized in this process :
"IDOLATRY IN THE STAGE WORLD", "MEDIA REALITY MAKERS", "IDOLATRY MACHINE",
"IDOLATER CHARACTER", "PRODUCTION IN THE STAGE WORLD", "CHEATING COMPARISONS",
"ARTIFICIAL FLATTERING ADJECTIVE", and "ARTIFICIAL SEX SYMBOL".
To help you deconstructing this illusion, you may need to pay attention
to some rare opportunities, and save these images or pictures to your files
and/or to your memory. I'm talking about pictures of famous people with no
production at all and/or totally out of the idolatry context. This may
be - for instance - the snapshot of an idol (or famous person) published by
a tabloid or gossip magazine not using special clothes, and not exploring
special angles or any other production technique. Deconstruct the
adjectives of the text and concentrate on the picture. Or may be the image
of an idol on TV with no production and connected to an institutional
campaign ad (non-profitable), for instance.
[ NOTE FROM WEBMASTER ZERO LEFT : Seeing is believing.
I'm organizing a page that will present many pictures of famous people in
non-produced and non-kundalinic moments. It may take several months. Wait.]
