Welcome to Pine Cone Utopia

Now is the time to awaken and realize that you have chosen to be alive in the most momentous and wonderful time in the last 12,000 years. If you choose to open your eyes, you will see that a revolutionary change in human consciousness is about to take place. A shift that promises to be so complete and transformational in nature that the species that emerges will be hardly recognizable as human. Individually and collectively, we are moving into dimensions of consciousness far more wonderful, expansive and filled with possibilities than most of us dare to imagine.

Huffington, Greenwald and the Birth of the Purple Pill Media
by Paul W. Marko, Ph.D.

In order to neuter the raging cobra of the alternative media, the globalists seem to be launching several new platforms of their newest mongoose, what I will call the “purple pill media.” This most recent ploy aims to make the outrageous behaviors of the ruling class (like possibly staging 9/11, the moon landings, the Kennedy assassinations, multiple false flag operations, etc.) food for polite discussions rather than the shameful affronts to humanity and civilization that they really are.


Based on a conceptualization hatched by brilliant Irish thinker and artist, Thomas Sheridan,
 his notion of the “purple pill” is a take off of the red pill and blue pill idea birthed in the original Matrix movie. Thomas astutely observed that when new ideas, edgy trends or expressions of authentic rage emerge organically from the populace (the red pill of reality), the movements are quickly infiltrated, watered down and sterilized by the powers that be. As an example, the hippie, anti war movement of the 60’s, a true awakening by a generation that were no longer willing to swallow the hypocrisy of the American dream (red pill), became swiftly co-opted and diluted into politically acceptable, anti war goop, ushering many into the purple pill of loyal opposition to war and causing still others in the flock to double back into the blue pill of the mainstream conservative society. Other examples range from the original hip hop music to the sincere beginning of the Black Power movement; the strategy is to infiltrate, twist and water down the message, such that it no longer has teeth, cannot mobilize action or threaten the establishment.

Over the past few weeks, major globalist money has been thrown into partnerships with media trendies and supposed “pals of the people,” to begin new “alternative” media networks. Arianna Huffington, the famous conservative turned liberal and Glamour Magazine’s woman of the year, signed a deal with billionaire Nicolas Berggruen to start a new media company, World Post news website.
  Berggruen is the founder, benefactor and inspirational leader of the Institute on Governance, an organization dedicated to solving the problems of globalization in the 21st century.
 At the same time Glenn Greenwald, internationally known journalist and releaser (excruciatingly slow – 1% revealed so far) of the documents leaked by Edward Snowden, signed a $250 million dollar deal with Pierre Omidyar, owner of Pay Pal corporation, to start a media vehicle.
 Greenwald said that it was his dream to have an outlet like this to “promote in-depth reporting.”4 Likely not too in-depth on some subjects, however, since his “Angel Investor’s” company has been and still is a compliant party to the NSA spying program exposed in the Snowden leaks.
 Just to assure you that these are not unrelated coincidences, Omidyar is on the editorial board of the new World Post news website.
 These new “alternative media” funded by globalists and fronted by celebrities, I propose, will form the basis for the purple pill media or just the purple media. But what can we expect to find on these venues?

Since the idea is to make the outrageous, criminal acts of the globalists mainstream and easy to swallow, “conspiracy theories” will be acknowledged and investigated in stories that will fully express the facts in the story. This article will be likely answered by an establishment expert, someone with a mountain of credentials but no scruples, assuring the public that although the facts of the case are true, there is no danger involved and many logical reasons why the situation exists. After which, the matter will be debated on a public forum, in a civilized manner and then filed under interesting but irrelevant. For example, a story that reveals that chemtrails exist and governments throughout the world are spray aluminum, barium and strontium particles on the earth in vast amounts in combination with various viruses and nano-technology could emerge on these websites. The original article (red pill) will be followed by an article interviewing a leading expert on everything in the sky explaining that the program does exist and indeed it is spraying those particular particulates, but not to worry, these measures are important to save the planet from global warming (purple pill). The publication will then move to the next subject leaving the “informed” readers to make up their minds on this controversy, thereby converting the red pill of global genocide from the sky into the purple pill of a cocktail party topic for discussion. If I am correct the purple pill media will likely expand their platforms into television outlets with game shows like the old Wheel of Fortune, with questions like, “Now for the bonus round and chance to come back next week…Who ordered the Norad stand-down on 9/11? There could be a reality show called “Escape from Abu Ghraib” where the public will get used to the prisoner and captor roles and consider them quite purpulishly normal.

These new outlets are a very expensive chess move on the part of the globalists that we can easily counter by knowing the aim and sticking with the red pill of truth and outrage.

Future Chronology
Paul W. Marko, Ph.D

 “He who controls the past commands the future. He who commands the future conquers the past.”
George Orwell

As long as we are slaves to the strange collection of pasts schooled into our collective psyches, we will be subject to the twisted future forced upon us.  Most of us accept one of three chronologies that tell the story of how man (homosapiens) came to walk upon the earth. All three teach that we spring from incredibly humble beginnings (clay, an ape-like species or an ape-like species and alien DNA (sperm?) [Zecharia Sitchen]). Two of these mythologies portray us as inferior beings with the need to be dominated (controlled, judged or ruled) by an extra planetary force. The other story (an allegory of the brainy ape) explains our origins as a combination of fortunate accidents and successfully beating the competition in a “survival of the fittest” environment. In the physical reality supposed in this mythology there exists severely limited resources – barely enough to get by. The drama portrayed surrounds an ongoing narrative where only the strong survive and the strongest (most ruthless as it turns out) dominate and rule.  Either or all of these chronologies might have some merit, or indeed might be completely true; on some level they all, however, have one thing in common.

The human creature that pops out of each of these creation stories (us) is custom made to be a slave race. In the “God created us in 7 days” allegory, humans were put on earth with specific orders (commandments) and after a period of time, this God will return and score us on how well we obeyed, subsequently doling out rewards and punishments. This seems to be a scenario that sets in place pretty tight supervision, limited growth parameters and limited latitude of thought and actions. The “allegory of the brainy ape” characterizes us as simply an offshoot of the animal kingdom. Animals become extinct all of the time and when our time is up, we can be eliminated to make more room. We are not so special; indeed in the movie, the Matrix, our species is compared to a virus that doesn’t know when to stop reproducing. In the Annunaki tale, gods came down and created us to be mining slaves while a supervising ruling class was set in place and left with us in the form of secret societies (the ruling elite). So no matter which of these you pick, you remain in the same pickle – a – not worth too much – slave race – to be tightly controlled, judged, manipulated and destroyed at will (for the good of the planet – of course). 

Who put these myths in our brains? One story is the product of the “scientific” community, schooled into us by our crackpot educational system. This training was mandatory for most of us with forced attendance throughout our formative years so it was extremely hard to avoid the belief that we were once an apelike species. Another came from the Abrahamic churches and temples which used to have the monopoly on mind control until the governments muscled in and took over. The third came to us through popular media – no threats – simply a cool story backed up by clay tablets. When Barbara Hand Clow decided to publish the complete works of Zecharia Sitchen, it was received as the great underground revelation that challenged conventional thinking. Since then, the fostering of this story by mainstream media presenting it as a marginal, but very appealing belief has made it almost as popular as the other two equally creative stories.

If you have watched the ruling class as long as I have you may realize that the elite are control freaks, therefore, nothing put in the education system, the religious dogma or the popular media is interjected just for fun. Everything seems to serve multiple purposes all pointed at controlling the population and ultimately their end game of complete planetary dominance. I believe these stories are no exception. Neither of these stories would be promulgated without a purpose in mind. In the creationist story, an off planet God created everything including us within a short period of time. This God delineated a chosen people, dictated rules for engagement and set up a final judgment for all humans – so watch out! This sounds like a recipe for control from a force beyond question. This force is in the form of the Abrahamic religions which have been controlled by the power elite since their beginning. This story sets in place obedience to authority, judgment for those straying outside of the norms and conflagrates God’s law with human law to be obeyed without question. In the evolution story, we are nothing but lowly animals, a parasite, almost like a virus – a danger to each other and the earth. Since the time of Plato, the idea of our inferiority has been emphasized with the need for a ruling class to control the masses. Plato expressed the idea that the ordinary population (us) is a great danger to the social order – especially if it learns how to think. This sets up perfectly the eugenics agenda and portrays the transmutation of our species to merge with machines as an evolutionary step (forward?). The third story sets in place the ruling bloodlines as the rightful rulers of the planet. They are the gods that created us after all, without them we would be running around the African plains naked in the form of large dumb apes thumping one another with clubs. They have been here since they sprinkled a little alien (Annunaki) sperm into the DNA to make us what we are. This relatively new story puts all of the pieces in place: the ruling class, our lowly nature, our limited usefulness and the fact that the elites really have every right to do with us what they will. Sounds like a set-up to me.

There are other more empowering stories that the education system, the churches, temples and the popular Ancient Alien series have conveniently left out. These mythologies portray us as having a very different beginning, one more compatible with our true spiritual and compassionate nature. These explanations point to us as a spiritual being on a developmental path passing through at the current moment a very physical experience. Let’s look at three of these stories of creation that I think portray a more positive and uplifting view of what we really are and where we might be going. My description of these chronologies are much abridged, the stories in their entirety are quite complex and highly sophisticated.

Nummos

The Dogan tribe of Africa presents an interesting chronology that I think portrays us more in line with our true nature and also gives a very different look at the power elite. When the Dogans were discovered it was found that they had remarkable knowledge of things about which they could never have known. They had star maps of the Sirius star system and a deep knowledge of our solar system. In a book entitled,Conversations with Ottomele one of the last shaman of the Dogan tribe recounts the story of the Nummo.

According to the legend, the Nummos came from Sirius for the express purpose of creating a being on earth which could experience their unique form of immortality. Five dominant characteristics of the Nummo are that they are amphibians (and not what you would call beautiful creatures), technically incredibly advanced, female by nature, humble in that they denied being gods and infinitely compassionate. Initially the Nummos came to earth and undertook the terra forming of our planet to make it the ideal habitat for their creations. Subsequently they took the DNA from a terrestrial life form and combined it with their DNA to fashion the being that they referred to as Experiment 1.

Much to the chagrin of the Nummo, Experiment 1 failed. The creation, which the Dogan refer to as the Jackal, took a space ship and crashed it back onto the earth causing an ecological catastrophe. The compassionate Nummos were not only dismayed, but resolute upon making things right. Initially they undertook a process to clean the earth (used a foaming technique) and remove the certain kind of radio active contamination left by the crash. Returning to Sirius, the Nummo began to fashion a second attempt – Experiment 2.
In this experiment the Nummo created beings known as the Eight Ancestors. Sexually, these beings resembled the Nummo in that they were basically female, but could transform into males when the need arose (sex and lawn maintenance?). The plan was quite simple: by interbreeding the 8 Ancestors in a particular manner, the Nummo would give birth to the 4 races of man. In other words, 8 was to mate with 1, 7 was to mate with 2, 6 was to mate with 3 and 5 was to mate with 4. But before this could happen, a love affair erupted between Ancestor 1 and 2 which produced a potential offspring. Incidentally, both Ancestor 1 and 2 were passing through their male stages at the time. Aware of the problems that could be caused by this mistake, the Nummo decided to perform an abortion to eradicate the blunder. The Nummo realized the potential problems with this accidentally created being which could potentially threaten their own immortality.

The other 6 Ancestors having inherited the Nummo’s compassion but feeling more of an allegiance to the other Ancestors than they did to the Nummo (since they had earthly DNA that the Nummo did not), strongly objected to the Nummo’s plan and wanted to allow the offspring to be born. Subsequently, the Ancestors stole a space ship and headed toward earth where the progeny of Ancestor 1 and 2 was born. Incidentally, to tie this mythology with other allegories, the royal families on the earth, especially the Kings and Queens of Great Britain and any of the royal families in Europe (Merovingian’s) point in their creation myth to the union of two men one of whom was a sea monster. Are they claiming to be the descendents of the birth of Ancestors 1 and 2? Could this be the reason that their viewpoint is so twisted compared to that of the rest of the population?

After the birth, the 8 Ancestors went on to follow the Nummo’s original plan. They undertook the proper mating sequence and created the multiple races that we have here on earth today. For example the Dogans, in fact all Africans are the product of the union of Ancestor 8 and Ancestor 1. As a footnote to this story, the Dogan tell of a return of the Nummo and their subsequent hasty departure. Some think that they might have been driven off of the planet. But who could have done this, who would be so motivated? Since the 4 races of man are part of the semi-divine plan of the Nummo, it is highly unlikely that we humans (decendents of the proper Nummo mating sequence) would be motivated to expel these compassionate creatures. Could it have been the royal offspring of Ancestors 1 and 2? And if this were the case, how would the elites have obtained the technology to threaten likely one of the most technically advanced races in the universe? Our next creation myth might answer that question and more.

The Sophia Mythos

In his book, Not in His Image, John Lash, a modern day Gnostic, offers an allegory taken from his translation of the Nag Hammadi writings and various other ancient sources. He tells the story of the Divine Sophia and her creation of the earth as an environment for the Anthropos (a template for humankind). This meticulously researched tale gives a graphic explanation for the creation of the earth; the appearance of a disease called the Archons and sets the stage for the struggles that we are now working through on the earth.

It all begins in the Galactic center also known as the Godhead or the Pleroma and proceeds forward. Within this location dwell various divinities known as Aeons. Two of these divinities Christos and Sophia conspired to emanate the potential for novelty to emerge in the universe in the form of the Anthropos. Together Christos and Sophia danced and projected their dream out into the cosmos at large. Sophia completely enwrapped in the possibility of the Anthropos emerging in a world of its own, departs from the cosmic center and plunges into the external realm of swirling outer chaos, where she finds a nest in the Orion Nebula. At this point, Sophia becomes so taken by her idea that she alone, without Christos, falls into deep dreaming which begins the cosmic process of emanation or creation. Acting alone in this type of action is a bit of a problem because acting unilaterally causes disharmony and imbalance throughout the worlds.

In addition, Sophia’s plunge into the realm of chaos produces an unexpected consequence in that it spawns a species of inorganic beings known as the Archons. This accidental apparition was unanticipated by Sophia in her dreaming and she realized that it may interfere with the evolution of humanity. The Archons often characterized as a disease or certainly a malady commonly take two physical forms. One resembles an embryo, with large eyes and big head topping an infant like body. Some think this describes the commonly known grey aliens. The other form is of a reptilian being. The Archons follow their central deity, known as the Demiurge. This demented god falsely claims that he is the creator of all that he beholds. Sophia confronts the Demiurge and tells him that the Anthropos, although still unborn, is superior to the Archons because the Archons were not created through divine emanation, instead they were spawned outside the cosmic core.

Sophia then proceeds to begin the metamorphous into a terrestrial form, an organic earth, but this is interfered with by the Demiurge. Sophia becomes overcome with fear, confusion and grief and is unable to manage the life emerging on her surface. The Galactic center sensing Sophia’s difficulty sends Christos to her aid. Christos brings order to Sophia’s experiment and leaves the biosphere with a radiant afterimage. Subsequently the Divine Sophia becomes totally absorbed in the solidarity of her dream of a world where a particular strain of humanity can flourish. Sophia continues her morphosis from a divine spirit into the physical earth (Gaia). She risks all for  earthly humanity. That brings us to the current time where this novel human experiment runs its course on the earth in the presence of the Archons. John Lash explains on page 160 of his book that “with novelty comes the risk of deviation.”  He explains that we, the Anthropos on this planet, have three challenges; to find our place in evolution, to stay on course with our proper evolutionary path and to define our role in Sophia’s ultimate purpose. All of which might be complicated by the presence of the Archons.

The Yuga Cycles

The description of the Yuga cycles is not so much a story of how we began as it is a description of how we have proceeded up to this time, an explanation of our current experiences and perhaps a glimpse into the future. Although the western mind has taught itself to view life as a linear path from the past through the present to the future, certain eastern traditions and most indigenous cultures conceptualize existence as a series of spiraling cycles, actually, cycles within cycles. Just as day and night are earth’s rotation cycles within a larger 28 day moon cycle and 13 of these cycles are contained in one sun cycle, a year, so too are these cycles part of larger cycles within larger cycles. The descriptions of the Yugas portray cycles of human consciousness development and provide an excellent description of how past events fit together and give clues to our future.

The Yuga cycles as delineated by Sri Yukteswar, posit 4 distinct cycles of progression that take place over approximately 26,000 years and parallel similar cycles described by the ancient Greeks. According to the teaching of this Vedic master, human consciousness cycle through the following phases; beginning with the Satya Yuga (The Golden Age to the Greeks), the Treta Yuga (The Silver Age to the Greeks), the Dwapara Yuga (The Bronze Age to the Greeks) and the Kali Yuga (The Greek’s Iron Age). Yugas repeat so that the length of time to complete an entire rotation takes approximately 26,000 years from the beginning of the Satya Yuga through all of the other Yugas back to the Satya.  See illustration below.

Taken from the Yugas by Joseph Selbie and David Steinmetz

The Satya Yuga (The Golden Age) is described as a paradise on earth. People lived like gods and had miraculous powers like levitation, the ability to fly, healing powers and miraculous powers of creation. They did not age or contract diseases. People lived in harmony with nature and one another in complete abundance of everything. They lived in accord with all animals and indeed could communicate with them. Some speculate that the people during the Satya Yuga may have been much larger, could communicate telepathically and perhaps had no need to eat because they could derive all of their sustenance from the sun. Most cultures have legends describing such a time, ours is referred to as Atlantis. The Gobekli Tepe dating from 9500 BC could have been a product of this time and age. This monumental structure was purposely covered up by its builders – perhaps in anticipation of the upcoming Trenta Yuga and beyond.

The Trenta Yuga (The Silver Age) human knew himself to be an intricate part of universal consciousness interconnected with non-material reality. Unlike in the Satya times where man comprehended all including the spirits beyond the physical world, during the Trenta Yuga, man lost this direct comprehension. Advanced souls who still possessed attributes from the Satya Yuga taught the people of the Trenta Yuga practices that would allow them to attain certain Satya capabilities and ways in which the Trenta humans could maintain their spiritual connection through the Yugas to follow. Mantras were taught to allow subsequent humans to attain intuitive attunement. Without telepathy to communicate, the development of languages evolved from connecting vibrating frequencies to communicating thought patterns into Sanskrit, one of the most complete and advanced languages known today. In the beginning of this era, humans considered civilization unnecessary and unattractive since it led to the physical exploitation of the planet for food and shelter. Toward the end, however as mental abilities waned, man turned to widespread agriculture and the establishment of cities to meet growing physical needs.

As we continued to devolve into the Dwapara period mankind became acutely aware of the importance of energy. Still cognizant that energy was their underlying reality, the harnessing of that power however, became a necessary component for their survival. Magic through the priests carried real power. Supposedly this type of power served multiple purposes. In agriculture magic provided more effective pesticides and fertilizers than the chemicals used today. And in defense (since defense became a new reality) powerful individuals could focus energies through weapons to transform them into devastatingly destructive forces (magic of mass destruction – perhaps). Magic was a direct harnessing of energy. In construction, magic could have moved the pillars in place in sites such as Stonehenge. Magic as a tool disappeared during the upcoming Kali Yuga and magicians resorted to illusions and tricks instead of the true magic from an earlier age. During the Dwapara, the one sophisticated language degenerated into many and just as occurred at the end of the Trenta era, at the end of the Dwapara a narrowing of awareness occurred, for example the quality of the Pyramids degenerated throughout the world after the Great Pyramids at Giza which evidence points to as having been created at the beginning of the Dwapara Yuga.   

Beginning at around 700 BC, mankind entered the Kali Yuga or the Iron Age, the darkest and most dense of the epochs. From the glory of the Satya Yuga, mankind (with the possible exception of the ruling class) slipped into a very simple but difficult time. People labored long and hard to stay alive. Life expectancy was short while disease and famine were common place. Ignorance seemed to become the goal as storehouses of ancient wisdom were destroyed. For example, the library of Alexandria was burned, Chinese Emperor Chin burned all the books in China, the Romans destroyed 500,000 Phoenician scrolls at Carthage and the Library at Pergamum was destroyed by Christians just to name a few of these destructive incidents. People slipped from virtual gods in the Satya Yuga into becoming slaves or serfs. The practice of religion became the opposite of expansion oriented practices (such as mantras) in previous times and fell into dogmatic practices designed to limit human options and thwart real consciousness development. The deepest spell of the Kali Yuga occurred 500 AD, an epoch that is known even today as the dark ages. During this time, mechanical and scientific knowledge (such as it was) was lost and then crudely rediscovered. Since then we have been slowly advancing to the end of the Kali era which according to Sri Yukteswar ended 1700 AD.

This demarcation of time led into the cusp era of the ascending Dwapara Yuga – technically we left the cusp and were fully in the Dwapara at the turn of the 20th century. In my estimation, from 1900 to the present day could best be characterized as a period of struggle between regressive and progressive forces. One can point to many consciousness raising events and movements. For example, early spiritual thinkers such as Rudolph Steiner, Edgar Caycee, Ghandi and Martin Luther King emerged to lead us into the Dwapara era of expansion. There has been during this time, however, a countervailing force to recapture us in the dogmas of the Kali Yuga. For example, there is the prohibition on the use of psychedelics as consciousness expanding tools, modern schooling is designed to train obedient factory workers, media works the interest of the common person in their compliance with government in covering up crimes of the state, there exists now massive drugging of the human population to interfere with their ability to reason, the planet is enwrapped with perpetual wars and of course the rising police state stifling all of human potential.

This dichotomy of forces acting out on the planet today begs many questions. Is the ascension of consciousness assured by the presence of the Dwapara era? Is the reported quickening of consciousness a sign of our expansion? Will the offspring of Ancestors 1 and 2 sufficiently thwart our expansion as to reroute or delay our ascension toward the Satya Yuga? Are the Archons able to prove to our beloved Sophia that the Demiurge can overcome her beloved Anthropos? Or, will the Nummo finally return to help its creations?

To me these questions are infinitely more interesting and possibility filled than when will God come and judge us – and will he pick me to go to heaven? Or how will the Annunaki in the form of the secret societies puppeting the ruling elites shut us down and transform us into transhuman robots? Or when will we (just another ape like species) go extinct in order to save the planet?

Six Ideas to Expand Consciousness and Gain Our Freedom by Paul Marko


Look at us. Everything is backwards; everything is upside down. Doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, universities destroy knowledge, governments destroy freedom, the major media destroy information and religions destroy spirituality.
Michael Ellner:
If you are beginning to awaken and become aware, you know that Michael Ellner reports the truth. Although the overwhelming majority of people on the planet want peace, good health, and social justice; as a global society we have very little of what anyone would call peace or justice. According to the World Bank 500,000,000 people live in what they describe as “absolute poverty.” Every year a conservative estimate of 15,000,000 die of hunger.  Another 5,840,000 die of hunger related diseases. Civilian body counts rise from the countless wars of aggression. At the time of this writing, there were an estimated 58 wars raging across the planet. 33 of that number are considered “major” wars where more than 1000 people were killed so far.  The distribution of wealth in this abundant planet is decidedly lopsided. In the US in 2007, 50% of Americans shared 2.5% of the nations wealth (this includes everyone making $40 K or less per year) while the top 1% shared 33.8% with the preponderance of the wealth being controlled by upper ½ of those ranks. I am sure that the distribution is even more dreadful today with the Banksters having orchestrated crisis after crisis redistributing the wealth of nations in the direction of themselves. Religions are of little help. One lawyer, Jeff Anderson, after filing thousands of lawsuits against the Catholic Church for sexual abuse winning his clients tens of millions of dollars is hoping to indict the Pope himself. "I came to the stark realization that the problems were really endemic to the clerical culture, and all the problems we are having in the U.S. led back to Rome,"  Although Mr. Anderson has not yet named the Pope himself, that is clearly where he is headed. An ex-clergy man Kevin Annett is also naming the Pope for other crimes against individuals that had been put in the care of the church. After more than a year of preparation, Mr. Annett is armed with the power to arrest and sentence the Pope at a tribunal in Brussels charging crimes against humanity. According to Annett “We have forensic proof now that countless children are buried in mass graves near former church schools, orphanages and sweatshops across Canada, America, England, Ireland and Australia” Although his efforts are currently names the Catholic Church, Annett adds that many other Christian Churches were involved in these crimes against humanity. This criminality rages in the institution that most people in the world turn to as their connection to spirituality.

In my viewpoint this circumstance, although dreadful is not by accident, human consciousness was always intended to pass through this period and learn lessons about greed and avarice, lessons that had to be learned in a gross material existence, confined to a five sense reality - deprived of much of our ability to perceive what we are or what is going on around us. We suffer through this time in order advance to a new level of realization. A realization that for many is rapidly approaching. 
The Vedics say that we are passing through the Kali Yuga, a time delineated as an era of intense suffering, deprivation and materialism  – it is also referred to by the Greeks as the Iron Age.. 
Wealth and piety will decrease until the world will be wholly depraved. Property alone will confer rank; wealth will be the only source of devotion; passion will be the sole bond of union between the sexes; falsehood will be the only means of success in litigation; and women will be objects merely of sensual gratification... Thus, in the Kali age will decay constantly proceed, until the human race approaches its annihilation,
Vishnu Purana 
In my opinion, there is a certain amount of comfort in knowing that this is a normal phase of human existence. One that had been prophesied through the ages and that will soon be over making room for another theater or several possible theaters for our expanding consciousness. This new age will move in and replace the ravages and dense materialism of the Iron Age with a new cycle of experiences. 
I have always felt that for the Iron Age to have done its job, there should be a visible or ideally measurable shift in consciousness awakening. There should have been lessons learned from this extreme fixation on materialism, war, disease and famine that should have lead at least some humans to assume a new viewpoint. A perspective that realizes that we are not material beings at all (according to quantum physics). A vantage point that knows that we are all one thing and what one does to others one does to himself. At the very least a point of view with a broad enough vision such that it cannot be completely controlled by the forces that seem to be intent on keeping us trapped in this dense existence. A vantage point that will be more characteristic of a learning platform fit for the upcoming era of the new human. 
The idea that there might be such a shift immediately raises two major questions, what will this modified or expanded consciousness look like?
And is it observable today?
I have been passionately interested in the answer to these questions for a long time and have done a lot of research to find what this movement would look like psychologically, emotionally and spiritually. How would individuals think and behave that have moved beyond the set of concepts, ideas and opinions that  I call Conventional Consciousness? 
I became so interested in this topic that I and some of my colleagues  undertook research and published our findings in an edited book called The Postconventional Personality available from SUNY Press. This book is a collection of empirical studies which look at how these individuals work, what they perceive of as the self, how they learn and most importantly for us in the last days of the Iron Age – How they determine what is truth. 
For the most part, these individuals are devoted to consciousness development and would gladly do everything that they could to help us all expand our viewpoint – they realize that it is in everyone's best interest.
Actually, I am sure many of you are among the ranks of these beings or know someone who is living a bit further down the path. A major characteristic is that Love and development of mankind are paramount to them – the materialism of our current age, takes a backseat to human welfare and consciousness development.  
Through related research, I know that today, many cosmic energetic forces are at play on the earth and throughout the cosmos. This cosmic energy is showering the earth not only causing disruptions in the electricity of the planet, but also influencing our consciousness, which, like everything else is made up of energy.  
Myself along with other researchers feel that with this new element influencing our planet and indeed the universe our movement toward consciousness expansion has become vastly aided. It is as if someone has thrown us a life raft. 
Unfortunately, today there still exists a countervailing force. The same force that has kept us locked in this materialistic fixation for as long as they will allow us to remember. And also most unfortunately this force controls the systems that we consider for the most part, modern society including but not limited to education, media, governments, large public corporations, healthcare, the military and the entertainment industry. Because ostensibly these forces seem to be opposed to the evolution of consciousness, I will refer to them to as the forces for involution. 
It appears that although our consciousness wants to naturally evolve and see the world and the universe from a higher perspective, these forces that control what we see, hear, learn and how we think want to hold us in the Iron Age. They like the idea of infinite consciousness trapped in these easily managed packages (the human body) doing exactly as they are influenced to do on behalf of their dark forces.  
Fortunately, all is far from lost, more and more people are becoming aware of what is going on and this knowledge spurs some of these individuals to begin to wake up and look for answers beyond Conventional Consciousness. There are also things that would make sense for us to begin to do right now that would move us beyond this easily manipulated conventional mindset. To not only expand our consciousness outside of the influence of many of the devices used by the forces for involution, but also help us see what human consciousness really is and what it is capable of. Employing these ideas might help move us, with eyes wide open, in full awareness to a future with promise and most importantly independence.  
 “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.”
Albert Einstein  
I posit that a new level of awareness is needed to lift us out of our current day dilemmas. This new viewpoint is beginning to awaken on the planet, but the numbers are still small and their influence is currently drastically marginalized.    
Here are some ideas that I have learned from studying those beyond Conventional Consciousness to help us all get together and be able to see our circumstances from an expanded vantage point.
I present here two separate strategies to free us from the overwhelming influence of the forces for involution and plant us firmly on the path to freedom. One strategy is to minimize the influences of the forces for involution by a process that I call unhooking (others might call it noncompliance or simply opting out) and the other is to begin to recondition your viewpoint to be in line with those who are already experiencing some aspects of the upcoming change of consciousness. 
Unhooking
It is advisable to try and minimize the influence of the forces that are devoted to thwarting our evolution in consciousness. Here are three strategies that will begin to free your mind and body as much as possible from the Iron Age mentality.
First, Unhook your mind from the corporate media that are controlled by the government and big business, and find other sources of information produced by individuals or organizations that might have your best interest in mind. Governments and Corporations are for the most part controlled by forces for involution and do not have your best interests in  mind. 
Although there are many wonderful people working in these organizations (I know, I spent most of my life coaching and training them) these organizations are controlled at the top by forces that don't have your consciousness evolution or your continued existence in mind.

Secondly, Unhook your body, your family and your community as much as possible from the government and corporate controlled systems, like food, energy and water. Form community and begin to take responsibility for one another. Actually form a community that is not only devoted to helping one another survive the collapse of the existing structures, but create a community dedicated to consciousness evolution. A creation like this will become one of the most powerful force for pulling all of mankind forward.
Lastly, Unhook from fear and hate. These are the main tactics used by the forces for involution to keep you enslaved. Realize that you are infinite consciousness having an experience as you. Eliminate fear and you immediately escape the clutches of the Iron Age. 

Now lets look at three basic ideas that if considered seriously and studied closely will begin to recondition your psyche to enter the next era. Concepts presented are ideas that will aid in the gradual expansion of your consciousness. And, if they were to take hold in a community they would completely change reality as we know it.
One warning, however, be aware that many of these ideas may contradict notions that you have held near and dear your whole life and when considering them might cause temporary confusion or discomfort. The human ego has difficulty letting go of opinions that they feel hold in place their reality. Some of these thoughts might indeed feel threatening at first, and might spur a furious chattering session in your brain between your ego that is simply trying to stick with what he or she has been depending on as reality and new ideas that might take some getting used to. Consciousness expansion is generally a process (although I feel it is a process marked with many ah has!) and may take some time to realize fully. Simply relax, these are truths, there is a part of you that knows they are truth and you eventually will begin to see wisdom in these ideas. All of these ideas are in line with those further along the path and will help all of us see our situation from a higher perspective. 
Change engendered from these new perspectives – if you can begin to embrace them - will help you become a personal force for consciousness evolution.
First, expand exclusivity to inclusivity. I have found and you may have too, that as individuals become further away from preconventional or conventional consciousness, their self concept becomes larger and larger. From the childish feeling that you alone are “self,” that this body is you, through the feeling that your “self” is your family or a larger unit to which you might belong. As consciousness expands one begins to think and act as if your “self” is your whole community and then enlarges to seeing “self” as all humanity - to all life globally - to all life cosmically. Work to see the concept of “self” in a larger and larger way. As your “self” enlarges and your concerns wrap around more people, places and things your consciousness naturally expands, by definition.
The forces for involution constantly use to their advantage  the commonly held, conventional, small self-concept of our “self” being a our physical body to turn us against one another. Their media and minions work to turn nations against one another, races against one another, sexes, religions, and even communities  against one another. The commonly used strategy of Divide and conquer no longer works as a ploy to distract you or demonize others when you begin to see all humans as brothers and sisters to be loved helped and protected as “self.”
this gradual enlargement of the “self” is a process and may take some time. As you leave Conventional Consciousness, you might find that you include in the category of “self” individuals that you had found to be deplorable. You might find that the homeless, poor, unemployed, lazy, people of other races and religions as “self” to be understood, protected and Loved as if they were family as if they were “self.” Eventually, the forces for involution themselves will be included in your “self” and instead of hating them (I know this is a stretch), give them the compassion that you would give yourself or a Loved one in your home. 

Seeing yourself or working to see yourself and your concern for all of mankind or all of our global inhabitants works to expand your consciousness.
Care for the world not just yourself and you will thwart the forces for involution and usher in the new era. 
Keep in mind that as each of us moves forward we create what a boater would call a wake. Since we are all in actuality one thing, this wake pulls along all of human consciousness to an expanded viewpoint. 
Therefore when you work to expand your “self,” you not only help yourself, you help all of us.
The second idea is to hold the concept that we are all equal. 
This is a hard one and represents the basic underpinning of the forces for involution strategy to keep us in place. Everything for them depends on us accepting that there must be a wealthy ruling class and a lower working or slave class. Although it it true that a middle class has been allowed to exist for a short time from time to time down through history, it is always troublesome and is eliminated usually by degeneration.
This notion has been around for a long time, from the Hammurabi Code, through time of the Pharaohs, reinforced by Plato and still taught by the forces of involution today. They have maintained the idea that there are some that deserve more, and are better. Some that rule and some that serve.  
Frankly, Without this notion lodged in our psyches down through the millennium we would have not put up with the oppression and lack that we have been forced to endure. You must now know the truth, there is no one better than you and no one worse, no one more Loved, no one less Loved, no one deserving of more, no one deserving of less.  The forces for involution began our slide into the Iron Age by putting forth the premise that there were the upper class and the less fortunate class, the blue bloods and the great unwashed and this notion, accepted by us, has allowed them to hold us in this reality of lack for millenniums.  Get rid of this concept first in your mind and then in the world and you will see how quickly things change for the better.
                                                                        
Holding the concept, that we are all equal, you will begin to re-conceptualize issues such as social justice. It will move from a forces for involution conceptualization of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth to all encompassing social justice concept that makes sure that everyone has enough and no one has too much.
The last idea is going to sound very strange to your ego. It may appear to be so outside of the box (your current reality) that it may cause you to disregard all of the information presented so far and plunge back into the safety of conventional reality. Your ego that has been taught (through all levels of education, social conditioning and the mass media) all of your currently held  ideas regarding of the utilitarian nature of the human brain and therefore to understand the notion explained below may take some coaching, or depending on your ego's openness and readiness you may already know what I mean. 
Start to move toward less of a mental focus in your life. 
The mind is an impressive organ, designed to aid us in conceptualization, explanations, analysis and synthesis of data - in Conventional Consciousness this means processing 5 sense information, but as a human being you also have access to other often more reliable ways of knowing, finding truth and making decisions. You have instincts that work in an instant to help you avoid danger. This innate ability works through senses through which you are largely unaware. Most people feel that they have the ability sense if someone is staring at them from behind or sense danger. Humans claim that they have a certain amount of intuition which, if you can turn off the chattering mind for a minute, will tell you right from wrong, wise from insane and when to move forward to hold back. In addition, most humans have access to a certain amount of direct knowing. Many people have told me that they just know things. Some people feel that they have always known things to be true, even though these things may reside far outside of  the Conventional mindset. Some individuals have been able to hold on to these “outside of the mainstream” notions in spite of others insisting that they were wrong, being trained that they were wrong and in some cases being ostracised for their continued beliefs.  In some instances these individuals have found out later in life that they were right on target with their idea all along – they just knew it. We are human consciousness, part of infinite consciousness – why wouldn't we “just” know things?
The forces for involution through education and overwhelming social pressure have tried to keep us locked in our brains, depending largely on left-brained consciousness to navigate through life. Devaluing not only our other ways of knowing, but trivializing everything except left-brained logic. Logic in Conventional Consciousness reins supreme as the only way to know, find truth or make decisions.
Logic is a wonderful process, but it is severely limited as a way of making life decisions. It is limited first of all by the 5 sense reality criterion superimposed by Conventional Consciousness under the influence of the forces for involution. It is also limited by the quality and quantity of input data. The input information to be beneficial must be free from political, traditional or personal bias distortion. How much information is truly free from these influences? In addition, to faulty input data, much essential information is not available. For example, all future factor data is missing, life purpose data is not available are always among the missing facts and figures needed to be uploaded into the process. It is also based upon the assumed fact that there is a physical, material reality in which our 5 senses can glean the input data. Quantum physics have long ago proven that there is no physical reality. Everything is made up of atoms which are largely non-physical and move in and out of this dimension.  Actually atoms only show up when they are about to be measured.  

In addition, logic IS a process and therefore is limited because it takes time (unlike instincts, intuition or direct knowing), therefore as the process passes through its algorithm, data changes, circumstances move forward and new realizations arise. All left-brained consciousness processes are subject data degeneration while we wait to know the answer it is offering.

In my view, all said and done, logic is a fine, although severely limited way of using the mind to come to a decision. It is certainly not the optimum way for human consciousness, inextricably hooked to infinite consciousness, to make life decisions. Human consciousness with its instincts, intuition and in some instances direct knowing likely has many other sources for information, realizations and inspiration, the potential is very likely unlimited. 
There have been many instances where through inspiration, perhaps tapping into the universal mind or some other form of unknown powers, ordinary humans have created extraordinary art, displayed unbelievable strength or found scientific breakthroughs. Routinely, just ask your government if you live in the US, humans are trained to do remote viewing, time travel or pass into other dimensions and communicate with beings existing in that habitat. These feats are done using our natural human abilities – realized largely simply through training.
For now, simply begin to trust your instincts and listen to your intuition. I feel that a certain part of you knows what your purpose is here in this era and will help you streamline your path to accomplishing it. When you hear something and need to respond, listen to your gut. Does it say uh huh (yes) or huh hu (no)? You will find that moving with your gut response will begin to eliminate frustration, and bring you more life satisfaction.
Also if circumstances are bringing you excessive resistance you may want to stop and change directions. As David Icke is fond of saying “stuck chuck – go flow.” When you feel met with resistance or things do not seem right, let go and move away from the circumstance. Mental understanding rationalizing or explaining will simply slow you down – go with the flow.
The forces for involution would rather have you stay in your left brain consciousness – gathering logical considerations- based upon your chattering left brain, worrying about outcomes and keeping you in fear of making the wrong move.
Practice going with your gut for now and you will find that you will begin to get more in touch with your whole body and regain some of our natural abilities and knowing, that the dark forces do not want you to know about.
Use your brain, that wonderful and powerful organ, for the purpose I believe it was intended; to conceptualize your experiences, explain things, and help others understand. Don't let the mind get more than tangentially involved in something as important as decision making.
Your mind has no idea what the purpose of this life is, it can only have an inkling of why these circumstances were brought to you at this time and it cannot even conceive of the being that you are about to become.
As a planet and a universe, we have what will be perceived  by some as tough times ahead, moving through this great transition from the dense, fear laden killing field called the Iron Age and into the next era – which quite frankly will probably look at first much like the preceding era until we get further into it and expand to reclaim our true selves.
I feel, however, that if we can stay positive and focused upon the ultimate goal and unhook from the Iron Age fear mechanisms, build community and work to expand our awareness, we will be able to speed the transition and start to be the proud and free entity that we truly are.

Trapped in a Web of Certainty (Addendum)

Trapped in a Web of Certainty (Addendum)
By Paul W. Marko, Ph.D.
Since writing and posting the article, Trapped in a Web of Certainty a month ago, I have had much positive feedback from readers. Some have used the techniques proscribed as personal development cues and others have employed the ideas as teaching tools and points of departure for working with clients on growths issues. I thank everyone for taking the time to give me feedback, both positive and developmental.
Because of the feedback, I am motivated to post an addendum that explains two additional techniques that might serve to expand realities and break up developmental impediments.
Because of the adoration and reverence for normal waking consciousness (NWC) the rational, left-brain dominates the perspective of the conventional (C1 and C2) consensual network that most people refer to as reality. The main part of the brain, the cerebrum, is divided into two hemispheres with independent, but shared functioning. Although linked together by the corpus callosum, and able to communicate, the two halves have different functions and specialties. The left half is responsible for critical judging, verbal expression and logical thought while the right hemisphere maintains a different focus. It houses the imagination, spatial relationships, abstract concepts and the ability to access intuition. In some areas in South America, the right brain is called the “God Brain.” Autopsies done within the recent past demonstrate that the two hemispheres at the time of death are seldom the same size. This inequity results not in an overuse of one half, but the underemployment of half of the brain.
In order to free ourselves from the habitual conventional mindset it is important to work our way out of the domination of the left hemisphere and open our perception to some of the insights that the right brain has to offer. Of course, the first step involves realizing the extent to which your thoughts and actions are ruled by the ambient C1 and C2 worldview. The main body of this article articulates a broad brush of ideas related to this topic. Minimizing the viewing of or reading mass media from conventional sources (corporations, governments and others with a vested interest in keeping you in the confines of conventional thinking) is a good first step in cleaning the lens of your mind in preparation for new awareness. The elimination of coincidence, allows the non-logical right side of the brain to play (the right hemisphere is the playful half) with holding ambiguity and fostering creative insights. Other ways to engage non-conventionally oriented parts of the brain include meditation, the contemplation of koans (conventionally illogical propositions or questions), vision questing and various other forms of consciousness alteration or absorbing creative endeavors. Below are suggested two additional ideas that will contribute to the journey to full brain functioning.
The first suggestion, laughingly entitled surfing the HYP, exploits a time when the left brain (and its firm bonding of individual perception to the consensual network) is less than fully engaged in order to momentarily increase the frequency range of our current perceived reality. Upon awakening, we look around and see that we are again in normal waking consciousness. Immediately the left hemisphere takes charge; begins to make judgments and switches on the internal dialogue system to attempt to screen out direct insights by confounding right brain intuition with analysis and superfluous diversions. NWC attends to making judgments and finding diversions until an alternative mode of consciousness (for example; sleep) begins. In effect, NWC, tunes only to a one channel (the 5 senses of awareness or the 5 cents network) excluding all other frequency ranges of consciousness (of which there are many) outside of our very limited field of perception. Accessing these alternative channels allows glimpses into different realities and may have the affect of loosening the stronghold, (stranglehold) that NWC and the left brain has on what is allowed to be seen and known. One way to access these censored channels is to capitalize on a window of time when waking awareness is maintained, but only to a limited degree, and to seize on a time when NWC is not in total control.
When entering and leaving sleep humans pass through states of consciousness that are neither waking nor sleeping. Known as the hypnopompic and hypnogogic states (HYP) these momentary windows present opportunities to glimpse outside the frequency range of NWC while still in semi-conscious awareness. It allows access to other forms of knowing while still maintaining a mindfulness of what we are observing and that we are the observer.
To practice, one can access HYP while in the process of awakening or just before falling asleep. Be mindful as you begin to awake or as drifting into sleep as to your state of mind and attempt (rather than springing into full NWC or plunging into sleep) to “Surf the HYP” by staying in HYP as long as possible. Encourage your brain to keep you from sleep and roll back into HYP if you begin to pop into NWC. Benefits from this band of consciousness are often realized by sudden insights upon awakening or extremely vivid dreams that occur in the early morning and seem freakishly much more real than a dream.
I personally have benefited from insights gained in this range and you may recall benefiting as well. Using this method for gaining direct insight will foster a trust in your instincts and encourage using intuition (knowledge gained from the inside).
A second suggestion arises from research done regarding evolving consciousness. It has been shown that exposure and training in the concepts and ideas held in the expanded ranges of consciousness can stimulate the releasing of limiting conceptualizations and the embracing of more complex and profound ideas. This process likely involves the cognitive recognition of the idea and, if not immediately rejected, can involve the consideration and perhaps the understanding of the concept. The leap from understanding to embracing might involve the unfolding of life’s process (time and circumstance) or a concerted effort to place the new idea into practice. At any rate, the second idea involves looking at the concept of self and exploring this concept at various stages of consciousness development and then using the new concept of self to help eliminate routine fears, improve confidence and perhaps improve self- understanding.
As stated in the main body of this article, an overwhelming majority of individuals today, exist in C1 or C2 consciousness. In other words, most people see reality, make value judgments, and define good and bad based upon this collective worldview. This viewpoint represents the consensual network that most people are plugged into and determines to a large extent how human kind and its institutions act. This perspective, because of its power of influence and total authority to define right and wrong bares the responsibility for all of society’s triumphs and foibles. It defines what’s for dinner and who eats.
The type of consciousness experienced prior to this range can be referred to as preconventional. Most humans pass through this worldview on the way to the conventional viewpoint that for most of us falls into place around the age of 7.
This perspective could be characterized as one of radical self-interest. Might makes right and life is a jungle where only the strong survive. From this perspective, society and its structures are viewed as something that can and should be outwitted in order to get what one wants. No long term consequences are considered and only a basic set of emotions color the experiences for this no holds barred construction of reality. Most individuals will revert to this worldview from conventional consciousness or beyond when faced with extreme danger in the instances where fear melts away valor.
Many worldviews have been defined beyond the conventional range and involve more complex viewpoints and an ever expanded concept of the self. Where the preconventional personality defines the self as the individual – in the time frame of today, the conventional mind can see him or herself as part of a family or a cultural group – over the span of many years. The postconventional personality beginning with self-concepts and timeframes just slightly more encompassing than the conventional worldview, can eventually expand to see all of mankind and perhaps all of existence as self and view its continuation over an infinite amount of time. This radical expansion of the concept of self and the overwhelming empowerment that accompanies it is the focus of the second idea. And like in the first idea, the hemispheres of the brain play a role.

The left brain analyzes and the right brain synthesizes. The analysis process breaks things apart, sees separation, labels components and highlights differences. The synthesis process does just the opposite, it unites, brings together, finds similarities and “unlabels.” In preconventional consciousness reality is broken down to the self (the individual body) as the unit of concern. Everyone else is the “other.” Actually, in this range of consciousness the individual often refers to his or her hands, or other body parts as being separate perpetrators of actions acting independently from the human body unit as a whole. From this vantage point, one is small, separated and alone, a viewpoint that must engender fear, although often this fear is often expressed as anger. Consider the helplessness of this perspective.
Conventional consciousness exists as a bit more synthesized, but still dangerously separate. In C1, reality morality and beliefs often define the other and limit the self-concept to those with similar values. Religions often, although not always, form a repository for housing separate identities with which the self can identify. Of course there is always a diversity of beliefs in the world (the left brain at work) and so the role of sole moral standard barer is often treacherous and inspires endless crusades (wars) to protect the self-concept of the righteous individuals who hold a particular viewpoint. This is an uncomfortable position huddled inside of a belief system, especially since analysis keeps creating new others from within the ranks of self. The C2 worldview sees the world and the self in a similar way. Although tending to prefer more secular divisions (city, state, country), the self is still vulnerable from the attacks of other C2 and C1 groups. Corporate sport team business reinforce and play on this nationalistic (unit of self) tendency in C1 and C2 individuals to create allegiances and emotional involvement (and of course money). These perspectives necessitate armies to protect borders and waive flags to inspire the ultimate sacrifice for the avidly held, miniscule, self – identity of a country, religious doctrine, economic system or ethnic identity. Prisons to house the others eat up a large part of natural resource and the sweat of human labor to protect this fear encrusted, conceptualization of self. The most expanded ranges of consciousness live in a very different reality.
In the most expanded ranges, the parts of the cerebrum play different roles in the constructing of reality. The left brain is employed at the discretion of its owner and used primarily as a tool to communicate to individuals seeing the world in more constricted stages of consciousness. The right brain allows the individual as observer to take an enormously protracted vantage point. At these highest levels, one becomes one with infinite consciousness which is everything that is. Others don’t present a threat because there are no others. Consider the power of a self-concept of infinite consciousness – all that there is. Vulnerability vanishes because infinite consciousness cannot be destroyed. Death becomes a non occurrence since the life that is being experienced today is simply a vantage point taken by infinite consciousness to subjectively observe objective reality. Life becomes a flow of experience as the novel writes itself and the flow of the action can be fully experienced in all of its delight and color without the numbing and blinding affects of fear. Imagine how empowered you would be if you were to embrace this perspective.
Therefore, the second idea involves simply imagining the limitations that these other viewpoints have and trying to imagine the power and fun you would have by embracing the idea that you are limitless consciousness – free to experience life to its fullest.
Be prepared, however, because it is certain that your left brain is not going to let you get away with this exercise so easily. It will analyze and throw up problems with any idea outside of the range of consciousness that you are now seeing the world through. I invite you to take control of your left brain (it won’t like this either) and tell it to be quiet and take a break for a while. And then, in a calm and relaxed manner, read over the description of infinite consciousness (written in italics above) with a blank and empty mind. Do it as often as possible without the help of your left-brain. And since the devil demands its due, promise your left half a good old fashion corporate sporting event, political discussion or simply having great fun analyzing the faults of your spouse, child or parents.
