The Wizard of Oz

According to the United States Library of Congress, the film, “The Wizard Of Oz”, is the most watched film in movie history. It has become an iconic film. Almost everyone knows the story of Dorothy, her dog Toto, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion. And of course, the man behind the curtain, the Wizard of Oz. If you don’t know the story, I cordially invite you to watch the movie. It is delightful. To be concise, I will skip directly to the part of the movie that I wish to discuss.

Dorothy and her companions are successful in obtaining the broomstick of the Wicked Witch. The leader of Emerald City, the Wizard of Oz, had made that a condition of granting the individual wishes of all four. The Wizard resided in an emerald palace. All that was seen of him was a large ghastly face. He spoke in a booming voice. When he spoke, his voice was accompanied by thunder, smoke and fire. It was very impressive and intimidating, inspiring fear in those who heard and saw him.

As Dorothy and companions present the broomstick to the Wizard, in his booming intimidating voice, he brusquely orders them to go away and come back tomorrow. As he is talking, Dorothy’s dog runs over to a curtain that covers a booth. With his teeth, the dog pulls open the curtain. This reveals a man with gray hair, about seventy years old or so, pulling levers and switches and talking into a microphone. The voice of the Wizard tells them to “pay no attention to the man behind the curtain”. But the facade has already been torn down. The truth has been exposed. There is no wizard. There is only an elderly gent who was able to fool everybody through crafty subterfuge.

At the end of the movie, it is shown that the things that the four of them desired was already within them. The Wizard turned out to just be another Bernie Madoff.

The Wizards Of This World

In this world that you live in, there are plenty of wizards that have nothing better to do but to control every facet of your life. The control starts as soon as you are born. Yes, your very first controllers are your parents and relatives. That may seem a harsh statement. It really isn’t. They are, of course, the most loving of your controllers. Your lack of ability to care for yourself mandates that they exercise control in order to keep you safe and help you to learn while you grow up to adulthood.

The problem arises with parents who are carrying around their own unresolved issues. The effect of these issues may act to the detriment of the child. It is unnecessary to dwell upon the various errors that parents may make. When parents, either consciously or unconsciously, exercise this type of negative control over a child, it acts as an obstacle to the child developing fully in the joy and beauty of the Kingdom of God within.

Later, come the other wizard controllers – teachers, schoolmates, co-workers, employers, friends, doctors, churches, government leaders and those authorized by said government to protect you, and all forms of mass media, including social media and the internet. To differing degrees, they are all wizard controllers, figuratively directing you to retrieve the wicked witch’s broomstick before you can fulfill your dreams and wishes.

The Mega Billionaires

At the top of the “human controller pyramid” are the mega billionaires. They are the one tenth of one percent of the world’s population that control corporations and the world economy.

Money is a necessary tool of a civilized society. It is used as a uniform means of trade. Money itself is neither good or evil. It is neutral. It is relentlessly used however, for the purpose of control over your life.

Take the case of one particularly nefarious mega billionaire. He cunningly masquerades as a philanthropist while attempting to create a stranglehold on the food seed bank of the world. He holds patents on GMO food seed and constantly touts the benefits of GMO food for humanity while purchasing massive tracts of farmland. It is a classic example of a massive scam. It is a blatant push for greater and greater control over human beings through controlling food supply. Meanwhile, he is hiding “behind the curtain” telling everybody ” I want to help you”.

The mega billionaires use their vast amounts of money to control others to do their bidding (see my blog post of April 15, 2021 regarding the “barbeque speech” of Huey Long). The mega billionaires understand the power of money. Do this and I will give you money to buy stuff. Don’t do what I want you to do and I will take away your money. Unfortunately, the need or desire for money (what money can buy) can lead humans down a hundred and one wrong roads. Roads that travel away from the Kingdom of God.

Have you ever watched the 1988 film, “They Live”? It is a science fiction horror film written and directed by John Carpenter. And yes, it portrays a world where “human controllers” are everywhere. They have successfully fooled the overwhelming majority of the earth’s population into following the agenda of the controllers.

The film stars Roddy Piper, Keith David and Meg Foster. It has an incredible five and a half minute fight scene between Piper and David. The fight is reminiscent of the classic fight scene between John Wayne and Victor McLaglen in the film “The Quiet Man”. It also features a cult classic quote from Roddy Piper as he brandishes a shotgun at some aliens – “I’ve come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I’m all out of bubblegum”. Watch the film if you get the chance. “They Live” is an entertaining movie with a valuable message.

Here is a quick and dirty synopsis of the film. It has been discovered by “resisters” that signals are sent out through television waves (today it would be cell phone signals). These broadcasts have hypnotised most of the population, keeping them in a subservient, dream-like state. After a resisters group has been raided and destroyed by police, Roddy Piper finds amid the wreckage of the raid, a box of sunglasses. Upon trying on a pair, he is shocked to observe that there are subliminal messages everywhere, directing people to consume, reproduce and conform. These sunglasses also reveal the true faces of the many aliens who now co-mingle with human beings.

At the end part of the film, Piper and two others are successful in infiltrating the main broadcast nerve center of the aliens. They discover a large meeting taking place of the aliens and their human collaborators. They are celebrating another year of control and the successful raid on the resister group. With great difficulty, Piper destroys the main broadcast transmitter. He is killed by guards but not before giving them the finger before he dies. The destruction of the transmitter frees humanity from its controlled state. Humans now have the ability to see all the aliens among them.

In, But Not Of

Jesus Christ stated that those who live in the Kingdom of God within, are in the world but not of the world. Those who have chosen to go within and live in the Kingdom of God are not influenced by the controllers, the man behind the curtain. These souls of course live in the world, eating, working, interacting with others, avoiding crazy drivers on the road, etc. However, they are influenced and controlled by Divine Guidance, coming from the Kingdom of God within. That, and that alone, is their true “North Star”.

The so-called leaders of society, and all facets of mass media and consumerism are not part of who these souls are. Nor is it part of their thoughts, their words, their actions, their beliefs. The Kingdom of God is impenetrable to all the manipulations of the world’s controllers. You are safe within the fortress of the Kingdom of God. The freedom of God is your freedom.

Tell The Controllers To “F**k Off”

The time has now come for every person under the sway of the controllers. The time has come for you to tell the controllers of the world to “f**k off”. You can probably come up with several reasons why you can’t do this. “I have a family to support”. “I need this diploma so I can get a good job”. My spouse will divorce me”. “My kids/friends/relatives will hate me”. “I need the health insurance for my condition”. Everyone will think I am nuts”. “The police will arrest me”. “I need food and a place to live”. And so on.

That is where the man behind the curtain has you by your figurative cajones. Fear. The controllers have used fear for centuries. It keeps people “in line” and under control. Technology is moving forward at exponential speed. The full intention of the controllers is to use the power of fear, coupled with technology, to coerce you to switch from voluntary servitude to involuntary servitude in perpetuity. They will do this under the guise of “helping and protecting you”.

You have the full freedom to choose. Fear or Love. Those are your two choices. Fear or Love. Fear is error. Love is truth. You succumb to fear in order to be safe but the only true safety is in love, which emanates from the Kingdom of God within. Yes, I know, it is hard. But following the Divine Way is the only way to cross the dark chasm and expose the man behind the curtain.

You CAN Do It, But………

In the film, “The Wizard of Oz”, when the Wizard attempted to intimidate Dorothy and her companions to go away, it took Dorothy’s dog to unmask the phoniness of the Wizard’s omnipotence. Just as the dog used God-given animal instinct to reveal the true nature of the Wizard, so you must use your God-given intuition and guidance to discern the true motives of the “one percent” to control you, heart and soul, from birth to death.

You may say, ” Yeah, yeah, yeah, I heard all that stuff before. You just don’t get it. I got six things in my face all at the same time. Things are going on with me. Things are going on with my kids, my spouse. I’m being squeezed, man”.

You CAN follow the very best path, regardless of anything, despite everything, BUT you have to earnestly ask Divine Intelligence to guide you. Read this from the Old Testament from the book of Jeremiah of what your Creator says, “You will seek me and you will find me when you seek me with all of your heart.”

If you honestly desire to understand how to live in freedom and manifest all manner of good things in your life, you can. Seek the Divine within you with all your heart, all your mind, all your soul. As St. Augustine said, “If you really want to see God, you have the means to do so”.

Conscious Manifesting

Every human being that has a mind capable of thinking a thought, engages in manifesting. There are two distinct methods of manifesting things in your life. The first way is by far the most common. It is unconsciously manifesting. Drawing things to you or pushing things away from you without ever perceiving that you are doing so. The second type of manifesting is conscious manifesting. This is when you consciously discipline yourself to focus on the Presence of God and with steadfast belief, live as if the desire is fulfilled.

Both types of manifesting use the same basic ingredients in the creation of outer circumstances. These ingredients are: (1) your thoughts, (2) your words, (3) your actions, (4) your feelings, and (5) your inner beliefs. The difference between the two types, unconscious and conscious, is control. In unconscious manifesting, your circumstances, thoughts, words, and beliefs control you. If you think fear-based thoughts, speak fear-based words, and believe fear-based ideas, then fear-based circumstances will follow, as the night follows the day.

If you make the conscious decision to exercise control over what you think, say and believe, and allow God-based thoughts, words, and beliefs be the focus of your life, no matter what, then, equivalent circumstances will ultimately follow. Going back and forth between love and fear is a classic recipe for frustration. Belief – belief that “it is done, it is complete” – is the gourmet sauce that turns the filet of fish into a gastronomical masterpiece. It is the real deal that guides all your conscious manifesting. It keeps you out of the clutches of the man behind the curtain.

Conceive. Believe. Receive.

Will You Walk Into My Parlor Said The Spider To The Fly

Unto an evil counselor, close heart, and ear and eye.

Said the spider to the fly is an often recurring phrase from a poem that is much quoted. The first line of this poem is “Will you walk into my parlor? said the Spider to the Fly”. It comes from a poem written in 1828 by Mary Howitt. This poem tells the story of a shrewd and ruthless spider who ensnares a fly through the use of seduction and manipulation. At first, the fly is hesitant to come close to the spider, having heard bad things about him. The spider uses charm, flattery and deceit to ultimately trap the spider in his web. The spider offers the fly a tour of his exquisite collection of collectables. The fly refuses. The spider then offers the fly the use of his hydro-massage bed to relax in. The fly refuses. The spider next offers the fly some gourmet goodies from his pantry. The fly refuses. Finally the spider hits paydirt by appealing to the fly’s vanity. The spider exclaims how very beautiful the fly is and offers her the use of his full length mirror so she could see for herself. Bullseye! The fly falls for this and flies to the web. RIP Fly. While the poem does not specify what happened to the fly after she was captured by the spider, you can assume that the spider was on the patio that evening grilling fly-burgers for dinner.

An Evil Counselor

The last two lines of the poem are as follows:

Unto an evil counselor, close heart, and ear, and eye

And take a lesson from this tale of the spider and the fly.

To live free of artificial constraints is the sacred privilege of every human being. To be truly free is to truly live. What an irony that the word evil is live spelled backwards. Quite appropriate. What a tragedy that so many in this world are hoodwinked into bondage by an evil counselor. The evil counselor could be a government functionary, your doctor, your school teacher, your spouse, your children, your friend, your clergyman, your fellow employee, your neighbor, fellow students at your school, corporate bigwigs, the news broadcaster. It is anyone controlled, consciously or unconsciously, by the controllers of this world. When you are told by anyone, anything that denies that you are a sovereign being and have been given the power to co-create along with your Creator by accessing the Kingdom of God within, that is evil counsel.

The “spiders” of this world entice you with all manner of things to obtain power over you. The “spiders” of this world gorge themselves on your fear. They will use all manner of manipulation and deceit to dissuade you from dwelling upon God. Once you dwell solely upon the Almighty, you are out of their grasp. The spider may even be good in heart. They may give you evil counsel not even understanding themselves that their counsel is bad. They may just be parroting back what others have told them, fully believing that they are giving good counsel.

Once you make the free will choice to jump into the spider web, for whatever reason, it will be difficult to untangle yourself. Money, sex, drugs, alcohol, power, celebrity, a sense of belonging, a fixation on food, fashion or fame, slavish obedience to authority, and so on. The spider has a multitude of enticements in his bag of tricks.

The Grid’s Gonna Getya If Ya Don’t Watch Out

In the movie The Matrix, there is a dual world of true reality and a computer simulated reality called The Matrix. The Matrix can be likened to an unseen worldwide computer grid wherein everything that you think, say, do, feel, believe, is the result of a computer generated reality grid controlled by artificially intelligent machines. In the movie, most of humanity was hooked up to this grid. They were born, lived and died within the grid living a life that was totally dictated and controlled by the powers that be, Occasionally a human would somehow rebel against this grid. Once identified, the remaining humans living outside the grid would attempt to rescue the person demonstrating rebellion against the grid.

You live in a world where the grid is “hiding in plain view”. When something is “hidden in plain view”, it means that it is concealed or unseen despite being in full, unrestricted view. And so it is with the worldwide grid today that you encounter every day of your life. A spider web that enthralls and entices you to enter and subsequently be consumed by it.

In the 1988 movie “They Live”, starring Rowdy Roddy Piper, you see an approximation of this where aliens are basically controlling the world’s humans though the hypnotizing brain waves they send out. Until one day, Roddy Piper comes across a box of sunglasses in an alley and puts on a pair. These eyeglasses allow him to see the truth of the world around him. He sees that everywhere is plastered slogans urging submission to the government. The aliens are actually engaging in everyday life masquerading as humans although without the special eyeglasses, they look like normal human beings. The eyeglasses allow Piper to distinguish who is human and who is alien. He is able see past the fake façade and perceive the true reality.

You were born with the sovereignty to allow you to voluntarily enter into a union with the I AM, the one true God. When you make the choice to dwell in God, you are privileged to act as a conduit for Universal Intelligence. As such, you are able to demonstrate the glory of God’s power, the power emanating from awareness of being. Conscious manifesting throughout your lifetime makes you an agent of God, a true child of God. Conversely, manifesting what the grid directs you to manifest is sin, a falling short of the mark.

Let your mind, let your heart, let your soul be centered on your awareness of being. Let your awareness of being be dictated by the Kingdom of God within you rather than be dictated by the worldwide grid of deceit and manipulation. Let your awareness of being be that which brings forth all manner of beautiful conscious manifestations, both small and large. Let the seeds that you plant in the fields of life bring forth a glorious crop. Dwell on God. It is your way out of any kind of trouble.

“Unto an evil counselor, close heart and ear and eye”.
