No Longer Yours

That phrase that has been touted now and again by the forum of disaster. About owning things, and how you will be happy when you have unburdened yourself of material possessions and wealth. And as I mentioned in my article about Ownership, it’s a strange mental game that has occurred. Because it starts to get people familiar with the idea, so it’s not such a shock later on, or now as the case may be. With asset stripping of countries deemed a problem, compulsory purchase orders by the government, banks being able to freeze your accounts and lock you out of society altogether.

But it seems more like they are doing everything they can to make it look like it’s not them, it’s your fellow man and citizen taking things from you. Because well, it didn’t really ‘belong’ to you, did it? A mental adjustment being forced through of possession and rights, legal framework and psychological pressure. On both sides, one being told it’s not yours and to give it up, and the others being told it’s not theirs really, you can do what you like.

Why would anyone want to be part of the property game when a tenant can just take your house? Precisely. And how can people afford their property taxes on what they already own outright? They can’t and that’s the point. Every action, law and Bill they pass, appears to be a slow Tightening The Screw, so they can wear people and their wealth down. So, while they want you to own nothing and be happy, it seems they want to own you and be even happier.

However, how stable is our current ‘ownership’ status we think we enjoy for them to take away? They already have rights to take your house, to stop you getting a job, they can have the final say over your children – although that is not the same type of ownership as property, but to them it appears it is. They can revoke your passport, incarcerate you and ultimately already have ownership over your life, it’s just that we seem to have been afforded some luxuries along with that. And now they don’t want us to have them anymore, so it’s a slow creep towards scaling that back, taking not only what you have, but wanting to change your mindset too. So, you believe it’s a good thing, and it means no responsibility for anything, if you don’t own anything, then you have nothing to lose. That sounds like a free mind doesn’t it, able to think freely and not be burdened by ‘stuff and things’. While the people who would like you to think like that, show you how much they have, and use while hoarding the rest. Because in some busted up way, because they borrow against everything, and it’s all tied up in pretend finances, maybe they believe they actually don’t own anything, because in my mind, they don’t. They have convinced people they do, throwing astronomical numbers around like they exist, or are tangible and can be paid into the bank over the counter. Making it seem as though they have so much, they don’t need it all, it’s all about the idea, the plan, and however much ‘money’ they need, they can have it.

It seems their ultimate want though, is ownership over the future, over your thoughts and how you can fit into their plan. Of 15-minute zones, medical check-up and interventions, monitoring by way of implanted chip internally, top up, log ins and systematic integration with their weird technological nightmare we see talked about. Virtual reality experiences instead of real ones, people grown in pods and having nothing to do with the human body until after they are ‘born’. Synthetic meat and chemically altered and enhanced plants and food to wean you off the natural stuff. It’s all quite sinister and unsettling, how there seems to be a desperate need to stop people being people, to get in between them, alter them and change the way we are, how we live and how we will live. So we best get on and start deciding for ourselves, because it does look as though time might be running out…

  1. Owning and knowing are of a kind. But possession of false knowledge costs us awareness of true. False passing off as true is the nature of masking agreements or contracts by which a system of values is shared in common. We might call this laws or rules, though is also applies as mores, rites and conditioned reaction. Grasping and fixing down of life reframes the self as ‘getting’ and ‘getting rid of’. Eating and elimination is more than metaphor for gain and loss, for they are a process of transformational exchange within a living flow of giving and receiving. So the hungry ghost represents a mind possessed and driven by lack, separation and conflict for getting life in externally defined values. The true possession of love is in giving and receiving as one, but externalised substitutions for love are set in terms and conditions of permission for limited love – that turns to hate and exclusion or denial when such terms are broken. Groupthink can be seen as a mutual or social masking order defined by terms and conditions of social identity or status as an expression of such rules. What is expected, required or demanded of you in exchange for permissions and credits of status, access or privilege. I see this as a sacrificial Order held by collective guilt. Those who sacrifice to receive ‘virtue’ will hate and attack those who ‘withhold’ social compliance as selfish, subversive and a corrupting influence. But the framing and targeting of guilt is set by scapegoating narratives by which conflict is masked in false threats that demand immediate overriding countermeasures. Social masking frames fear of loss of status (permissions of living) in falsely projected threat modelling, as a form of systemic controls and enforcements that are set above any laws framed to support life, to operate under the curation of legally contracted definitions of weaponised and pathologised ‘life’ – that operate the currency of guilting accusation of sin in the other —where sin is defined as refusal to sacrifice life to a false god or idol of private self interest set over and apart from the ‘othered’. I sketched out from a willingness to recognise and release lies by which we be-live a false unconscious managed sense of protection within a ‘mad world’. The Protection Racket is increasingly visible as a sense of systemic predation on life – yet also secretly fed and watered by defences that we are mostly unaware of acting from – because that is their function; to mask over deeper conflict – for the life we can find or grow with what we have. Our ‘culture’ is questionably our own – that is – what is truly ours to be and share in and what is acquired or inherited as part of a masking survival —as an alloy of love and fear? Questioning assumed or asserted reality can uncover the conditioning that shapes our thought, perception and response. But even this will be liable to reset into accusations of ‘sins’ in the other. No one wants to receive the hate shaped by compounding debt-conficts that run deeply toxic. But if I cut to the chase – self-judgement runs a basis for a dissociative ‘possession’ by masking defences that ‘do the thing’ that they claim to protect from. Judgement cuts both ways. As for a world gone mad – does the ‘Script’ serve an awakening love? Not the virtue masking offset to hate – but the release of judgement as the organising or controlling basis for living. That is of a mind set over and apart from life. Discernment is uncovered within the living as a gift to our willingness to heal – not to fix up external ‘solutions’ – but releasing what we are not to the re-cognition of who and what we are – both giving and receiving in truth. When we give unto Caesar (Structure) that which is due unto God (Living), we think to gain control as righteous dominion, and thus hate what we perceive to be oppositional or rival for possession. He who binds unto himself a joy Doth the winged life destroy, but he who kisses the joy as it flies lives in eternity’s sunrise ~ William Blake.
