The difificulty is that the ordinary person isn't able--or willing--to acknowledge when his habitual consciousness (the dream state) leads him astray; when his view of the world causes him to mistake a dictatorial police state for a democracy, a mindless tyrant for a "fearless leader," and a pre-emptive, unjustified war for a struggle against terrorism and the spreading of democracy.

The dream state of ordinary life is, of course, different from dreaming during regular sleep. This special state of dreaming sleep is an extraordinarily difficult condition to become aware of--or acknowledge. People in this dream world take it to be reality; they don't believe they're asleep--in fact they'll argue strenuously with anyone who says they're asleep and dreaming. This unusual dream world becomes a mass delusion when enough people accept the illusory domain as real. The demonic cabal presently creating this dream world can define reality for the sleepwalkers.

So ok I read you're quote and I'm left thinking what the ****? What exactly is it supposed to mean? I can understand that we only know what certain people want us to know but to say we have been programmed, that we're in a trance and while I type this i'm sleeping blink

Get a hobby mate or a job, something to keep you busy and away from this shit.

This is some of the aspects of Buddhism taken out of context and a lot of strange stuff added.

We are asleep because we do not always live in the now. This attachment to the past and future causes suffering.

sad You are either for or against. You either see the right or the left. There is either an up or a down. But never do you see the middle hand, nor the center piece, nor the focal point of the road. They attack an enemy they do not have. They sneer and bite what is not there. They grow angry and tired, frustrated and calm for no purpose or cause. He will leave, and what wil you have? A triumph? A victory? Or will you simply have yet another loss? They cry and complain (the people) how terrible he is, how horrible it is, what a crime this country has become. But certainly no one can be so stupid as to be blinded to the fact.

Those that are "awake" command those whom are "asleep".

Yes, I have read what you asked me to read and I see the source, but like we talked before, it's still outward flowing.

Cabals aside, this psychospiritual perspective is thousands of years old. To those who are already familiar with it, the "current source" of this material is obviously familiar with the perennial philosophy, the common thread which runs through every esoteric tradition.

There is a lot of truth in this point of view, but as so often happens, truth is stretched, distorted, corrupted to suit the ego of he/she who thinks they have come to save mankind.

Piece of friendly advice: save yourself first. Then you will be a natural example to others.

The funny thing is, how can you not be you? No matter how fraud your live is no matter how much of it you miss, no matter how much of your actions were programmed... You are still you, beacuse all those programmed things define you. To say I am not who I am because I am programmed to be something is stupid. Because i'm still just that.

A tyrant to some is a leader to others........................truth is subjective based on a person's life and where they live.

At times one must ask, what if we like it asleep?....
