There we go. | |
Hello humans, hello humans, hello humans It's a bit harsh lighting-wise, but there isn't much I can do about it. | |
I'm cleaning up the office here, and we're in the midst of well, we're actually a little bit into the storm that is arriving today, and it is supposedly a um, well, it's circular. | |
They're coming up over, there's three storms. | |
They're coming up from India. | |
Excuse me. | |
There's three large circular storms. | |
This up here is like Alaska. | |
There's the Aleutians, maybe. | |
And then we're down here. | |
There's one of them impacting us today. | |
And um they're circular, but they're not a hurricane. | |
They're extremely low pressure, but they're not a hurricane. | |
Um, but they're so they're calling them these bomb cyclones. | |
Supposedly it's a category three. | |
It might arrive, I might lose power in the midst of this recording. | |
Uh, this is on a machine that has no hard drive, but has this other mechanism. | |
Who knows if it can survive that. | |
Uh we'll see. | |
Anyway, though, this is the Wu Wei Wu. | |
And I'm gonna do something unusual here. | |
I got books. | |
Um, so uh so this is um wu-wei is a Chinese concept, and it uh it the words don't have a direct translation into English that is meaningful relative to the underlying meaning of the phrase in Chinese. | |
So um so uh the the best kind of a translation is um effortless action in a concept. | |
Uh there's more to it than that. | |
There's there is much more to it in Wu Wei. | |
It's uh described as a Taoist concept. | |
You find the concept, not the not this wording, but you find the concept in all different kinds of traditions. | |
You can find it in Mexican in Central American uh shamanistic traditions, um you can find it among the Sufi in the deserts in the Mid East, you can find it in the aboriginal uh discussions of things. | |
Uh you find it throughout all of Europe in the um uh mythos that underlies the um the magic of the uh indigenous peoples. | |
Find the same thing here in the um North America within the indigenous peoples, they have this concept, and so um Wu Wei, effortless action, or correct action, | |
meaning correct in the circumstances and the dynamics of what you're experiencing, is a a way of saying um correct navigation uh through a dynamic maelstrom of forces seen and unseen, | |
and it is uh as far as the Chinese are concerned, it's a highly admirable uh quality. | |
It is both a quality, it it is a um variously, it is a quality that uh a man might take or circumstances might take, or even uh uh you know, it might be expressed in a dog or a boat or a bird or something, right? | |
Uh you could say any of those were expressing wu-wei. | |
Uh so in one case, like with a boat, it might be that you were describing the the shape of the hull being uh accommodious, uh uh accommodating to harmonious with the way that water works. | |
Um and so wu-wei uh spreads throughout basically everything in all societies, but most People don't practice it. | |
Most people aren't aware of it. | |
And so it is a highly admirable quality when a man expresses Wu Wei. | |
Now a man can express Wu Wei or being can express Wu Wei and not be as we would understand it, consciously pursuing Wu Wei. | |
And in fact, the ultimate expression of Wu Wei is that you get beyond consciously studying it and consciously involving yourself in it just to live it, right? | |
And so this is our woo about Wu Wei. | |
Because Wu Wei is very important principle. | |
We see it as I say in all cultures around the planet. | |
I can find you language that will describe exactly what Wu Wei describes in the broader context. | |
And we can apply it just as Wu Wei is applied to circumstances, individual beings, and this sort of thing, right? | |
So we find these analogs everywhere. | |
So this is something that arises naturally from within humans. | |
Is this there are humans who have an appreciation for the flow, the groove, right? | |
And you go with the flow, you get in the groove, everything is harmonious, and you have effortless action. | |
Now, effortless action, as I say, is uh in the form of Wu Wei is a highly uh admired concept uh by the Chinese. | |
So now here is a book uh entitled The Hundred Year Marathon, China's Secret Strategy to Replace America as the global superpower. | |
So I read all kinds of books. | |
Um and and some of them I save, some of them might not, you know. | |
I mean if there's something valuable in it, if it's a reference material I need to go back to, uh I'll certainly save it and stash it away. | |
I have lots of these books in stashed, and probably most of them are going to mold just because of the nature of uh books these days. | |
Anyway, here um this is a discussion uh by a fellow that served presidents and was on think tanks, and he's he's Michael uh Pillsbury, he's a director of Center of for Chinese Strategy at the Hudson Institute. | |
Um and this guy's a real good thinker, right? | |
Uh I mean, I I understand the depth of um conclusions or the depth of research that he did to support the conclusions that he makes, and he's a good thinker in many regards uh relative to the United States as a superpower, China is a superpower, all of these global politics things. | |
Anyway, uh this is as I say, the hundred-year marathon, and I wanted to read this um little tiny bit here on page 233, uh, in which it's talking about uh how China um views the West and uh particularly the United States, right? | |
And how the various uh China hawks versus the China reformers, you know, their neocons, you know, that kind of thing, and how all of this uh has developed, and it's a discussion um uh of America as a warring state, all right. | |
And so in in this book, there are these references to the 36 stratagems in here that the 36 stratagems were the uh strategies that would be employed to depose America, take it over, and convert us to a vassal state of China. | |
And this was the plan here. | |
And he discusses all of this, and and he notes some of the really key pertinent points here that in my way of thinking, right? | |
And so this is uh this is chapter 11. | |
It's about America as a warring state. | |
That is to say, how good we are at war. | |
And so there um the stratagem that is held up on this particular uh chapter is steal the firewood from under the cauldron. | |
And that's that's three three, depending on how you write it, it's like three Chinese characters, um three Chinese ideograms. | |
Um, um that the idea is removed from uh the heat uh uh from your enemy, right? | |
Take take the heat, take the fire out of your enemy. | |
And thus all the wokeanism, the purple hair, all of this kind of shit, the destruction of the language, the destruction of art, the uh corruption of Hollywood, the corruption of the music industry, all of this kind of stuff, right? | |
The promotion of the gangster ethos, the flooding of the uh the guns into the inner cities to create the Chicago kind of problems that we have, etc. | |
etc. | |
etc. | |
I'm all for guns, and I think everybody in Chicago should have one, and we should have regular neighborhood gun ranges and regular uh neighborhood meetings where everybody goes and trains, right? | |
This is a healthy society in my my viewpoint is that everybody is armed constantly. | |
And so that's a very polite society, you will find out. | |
Anyway, so um back to page 233 here. | |
See, what I wanted to point out was that uh was this particular chapter, all right. | |
Uh there's this guy, they're talking about this particular Chinese scholar, one nationally known Chinese scholar has even examined decisive moments in American diplomatic history from 1880 to 1914. | |
So this is how serious they are. | |
They've got people that are examining everything we've done and and all of these decisive moments in our diplomatic history. | |
Now they understand diplomacy versus warfare, but that each is a strategy and a tactic within the other, right? | |
Um, and so you can use the threat of war as part of your diplomacy, that kind of a thing, right? | |
Anyway, so um, and he talks about um in here the decisive moments in American diplomatic history from 1880 to 1914 to show how the United States soothed and reassured Great Britain in order to replace it at the le as the world's leading uh world power. | |
Um he admires how American strategy cleverly and deliberately eased an unsuspecting war-weary Britain out of its global role. | |
And that's what's happening to us. | |
We're war-weary, we've had we've expended all of our treasure on all these stupid fucking foreign wars, uh, which our our founder said, don't do that, you dumb fucks. | |
Um we didn't listen. | |
Uh anyway, and so we're in the same position as Britain, the Empire, just before it decided it wasn't an empire anymore, right? | |
Our language is even changing as a as a part of that. | |
Now, uh Poutine, the head of Russia, notes that our language has been corrupted by the same influences that corrupted their language, just as the Bolsheviks were taking over the Russian revolution. | |
Anyway, China's admiring descriptions of American strategy often use Chinese strategic concepts, such as claiming that the United States is exploiting Xi. | |
Alright, I'm gonna write these down. | |
SHI, that's a particular type of energy, she energy. | |
Um exploiting she, using Wu Wei, and borrowing the strength of others. | |
Uh China imputes use of these concepts to the United States, which is also pursuing its own marathon strategy today, as China sees it. | |
Okay. | |
So China sees the United States pursuing a global domination strategy, that we must, the people in the United States, somewhere, somehow, some cadre, some click somewhere. | |
There's a core of the United States geopolitical movers that thinks that we must dominate. | |
And this is an anathema to China because China's been the world's largest country, though, in terms of population and economic power for basically two to three thousand years, right? | |
Um China has certain characteristics the United States does not. | |
The United States has many characteristics that China does not. | |
Um they are imputing, putting on us, projecting on us their concepts of our actions through time. | |
They are saying that That the United States has taken advantage of the lay of the land in order to harmonize with the dynamics of the environment to achieve an easier victory in all these various circumstances, which is absolutely true. | |
And we see that this is the uh we will see that this is the case over these next few weeks as uh changes erupt within the United States relative to our current situation, and it will be revealed, the secrets revealed, period, that uh we are indeed practicing Wu Wei. | |
Okay, so it's one of those things where she is a particular kind of energy. | |
There's all these energy the Chinese are uh okay, so uh boy, this gets so complicated. | |
And you know, you poor kids, I'm an old fart. | |
I've I've lived with this shit for for 50 years, right? | |
60 years in some cases, and so um uh I just don't know where to start to explain what's going on. | |
But she is one of the many energies. | |
So there's she, there's uh shin, there's qi, these are all Chinese, all right. | |
These are this all Chinese understanding. | |
Now, now I um my martial art uh tradition is Japanese, and so we think of this as key energy, right? | |
And then that and the Japanese have different analogs for each of these as well. | |
But basically, this is the concept of frequencies. | |
Frequency applied to various different kinds of uh circumstances and beings. | |
So these the um exploration of the energies on a Hindu side, you know, we'd be looking at prana, you know, basically life energy, that kind of thing in Greek uh uh. | |
Well, in Roman it's um animus. | |
Can't think of what the Greek is at the moment. | |
Anyway, um in Latin I mean, okay, so this just the examination of frequencies, independent of being able to identify the actual numeric value of a sine wave assigned to such a frequency. | |
All right, so independent of that, just the examination, the thinking of them, the knowing of them, the understanding of them, the suspecting that they exist and hunting them out, uh, is uh an aspect of Wu Wei. | |
Alright, so you have an intelligent mind, you're sitting there, uh, you know, it's after dinner, you got a little campfire going, uh, you know, uh maybe you got a blunt and you're just thinking about something and watching the stars, and you start thinking about all the energies in your life and the flow of them all, | |
and and you start discovering that all of life is is all of um the materium are um matter expressing energy and energy pretending to be matter, and that this energy works at many different levels, there's all these dynamics within in and among and between people, and that they can be all classed and and categorized in all these various different ways. | |
And they can be applied to various different circumstances and they make your life easier if you understand them, right? | |
So you you find somebody that's got their shin energy is all bent out of shape, and you know, it's like um uh you just don't want to deal with them during that day, so you you you do, you pass, right? | |
You take the woo-wei aspect of it. | |
You have the the greater understanding of the circumstances to know that you're not going to be able to reach through your friend's mental illness that day when he's in the midst of the mental illness to aid him, but you can also tell that that there isn't much that you have to worry about when he's in this particular state. | |
So you you take a more casual hands-off approach and let it burn itself out. | |
You let the energy degrade that's driving that, and then pick it up on the other side of that. | |
So you're letting the energy degrade, and you're gonna pick it up on the other side of that and address the issues that were raised by the it being him being bent out of shape on that particular day. | |
But if you address it here or here, where he's in the state or he's declining from the state, you'll still be addressing it repeatedly thereafter because you won't be able to get closure or resolution to it Because he won't be able to effectively participate because your energies are not harmonized. | |
Sort of makes sense, right? | |
Okay, it makes sense as an abstract concept. | |
It makes sense as a functioning flow of life. | |
It's not something that can be enumerated. | |
It can be described. | |
It's easy enough to describe it to a human, but you can't enumerate it. | |
So those individuals that have to have a numeric value for the sine waves involved, They must know something that is that is numeric relative to that, are not the type of people that will be functioning in Wu-Way. | |
And so I know this, right? | |
Because I know that those people that are that are in the sway of the thinking that produces meaning from the number, they're not examining the energy, they're still dwelling in themselves relative to their mind being captured by the value of that number, right? | |
And so every number is both a symbol and a representation of a value. | |
It is not the value, it is a representation of the value, it is not an explanation of it. | |
It is a mental construct for thinking about it. | |
But in in other ways, there are better, other, easier mental constructs for thinking about the values involved that that number represents. | |
And this is the thinking that is invoked in the thinking of Wu Wei, and this is what the Chinese military people were so impressed about the U.S. relative to getting the British Empire out of the way, taking over everything from the Breton Woods thereafter, and even Nixon in creating the petrodollar. | |
But it was, but they were already in the 19. | |
Okay, so one of the people that is admired by the um as a warrior in the United States is MacArthur by the Chinese. | |
This was in the Korean War. | |
MacArthur uh was told, hey, go fix this problem in Korea. | |
And he took this big army over there, and they they um lost a bunch of battles, and then he won the fucking war, went way over the border of North Korea and started kicking the Chinese all the way back down towards Beijing, and everybody freaked out, and uh the powers that be had uh Truman, President Truman, recall MacArthur really fucking quick and hammer him into a uh oblivion, um because MacArthur could have taken over the presidency. | |
Um and he would have uh had he been left uh alone, he would have defeated the communist Chinese, and we would not be facing the China that we have now, right? | |
We wouldn't have had COVID or any of that kind of stuff. | |
Um MacArthur, according to the Chinese, was an embodiment of someone that had uh was a was um that had passed through, okay. | |
So the Chinese within Wu Wei, there's this concept, and it's usually written as uh, and it and this concept is also found within the Wu as in all things that have initiation. | |
This concept basically is always expressed in the Wu Wei thing uh in symbols going up, and there's reasons for that. | |
But basically, uh so you're here in your nascent state, and these are all spirals, okay. | |
And so you're here in your nascent state, um, you know, the unknowing uh basically the couch potato, the blob, whatever, whatever you want to say, right? | |
This is your unknowing state. | |
And as you spiral upward in awareness and knowledge, at some point, uh a first awareness of self, uh, and you're working basically towards self-mastery, and you keep going up like this, and then at some point you come up to the concept of wu-wei, and you start like today. | |
Maybe some maybe for some people today is the first time they've ever come up into this concept. | |
And so they would know that they're actually on this path within the Wu-Way description, and they can even plot themselves as to this point right here, because today is their day of discovery. | |
Okay. | |
And so this is their discovery day, where they discover Wu Wei. | |
And then this is a very big day in many people's lives, but many people it happens and they don't recognize it until way later. | |
And then they look back and say, damn, that was when it happened. | |
I should have been paying attention, but of course I couldn't have been paying attention because that's the way the way the way that Wu Wei works. | |
So this is this pretty tricky shit, right? | |
This is all about initiation. | |
So you discover Wu Wei. | |
Now, this is a path of life. | |
And so this is the path you, this is your tree of life. | |
And in the after you've discovered Wu Wei, your path of life has been moved over. | |
So I've got to move it. | |
I've got to clear us some room here. | |
Alright, and so your path now is over here. | |
Because you have discovered Wu Wei and you'll never ever ever be able to forget it. | |
you could take a lot of drugs and so on and sort of ignore it but then something will come along and universal slap you in the head because it showed you wuwei and it doesn't want you to not know it you've got to remember it you've got to start learning this you've got to start understanding And so in the path of Wu Wei, here is after you've got discovery, then this is the time of playing. | |
This is otherwise known as exploration. | |
Alright. | |
And so when you're playing and you're in the point of exploration, you know what that is like. | |
When a kid, you know, get out there, dogs, their puppies are rooting around, you know, biting on stuff just to see what it does and how it reacts and all this kind of stuff. | |
So that's what you're doing with Wu Wei. | |
You get to the point where you discover that you can actually interact with the energies of life at a conscious level and cause yourself uh ease or or discomfort depending on how you do that interaction. | |
And so this is this means you have to know yourself relative to what's going on in that moment and how you're feeling and all of that kind of stuff, but then you can blend yourself in and be harmonious with these energies. | |
Um my tradition has in because it's Japanese has a lot of this Aikido stuff in it, which is the harmony, right? | |
Aikido is mind-body harmony. | |
It is that's Aikido, the the Aiki in Japanese can be easily translated as Wu-Wei in Chinese, because they basically mean this harmonious approach to things, right? | |
Anyway, so the point is that after you get through playing, then at some point it dawns on you to end the exploration. | |
It dawns on you to try to um become adept at it, right? | |
You start using it. | |
You start you start using the Wu Wei. | |
And then at some point, you learn that you can apply the Wu Wei to this process, and you fold it in and you reach mastery. | |
And so that's basically a description of mastery and anything, just in the terms of Wu Wei, right? | |
How you apply the things you learn in your art to the art and you become a master. | |
At that point, you know you are a master, because your exploration of the art involves the art in itself, and so you have been transformed by that art into something that you are not when you began. | |
And that it is the and that this is that transformational journey. | |
This is that initiation. | |
Because once you are an initiate, you can't go back. | |
You won't go back because you've seen and you cannot unsee. | |
And you must uh needs my needs must is the devil drives, is the harsh way of saying it, right? | |
Once you're on this path, the devil drives you towards mastery, and you cannot not go. | |
Um anyway, so this is Wu Wei, though, is this idea of the um beneficial action or the beneficial inaction in uh dynamic situations. | |
Okay, so it doesn't mean being passive, it means knowing knowing when to be passive and when to not. | |
It is the case of knowing what to do and what not to do and when to do it and when not to do it. | |
So there's many times that waiting is the best thing you can do because the energies will change and they will provide more for you to work with, right? | |
At the moment it's a little, oh, I can make it happen, but it's gonna be a struggle, and these people are gonna suffer and so on. | |
But if I back off and let all this shit happen. | |
So we right now, right now in this instant, are involved in one of the largest woo-way operations that has ever happened on this planet. | |
All right, and so it there are people that are manipulating all of the frequencies that all of us live in and changing all of humanity right now and in this week, I think it's my conclusion that we're gonna at this point of release language that that this woo-way operation for those who understand the concept will be much more visible. | |
All right, because what's happening is these people have got a woo-way operation going where they are letting things happen, and they know certain things are going to happen, and they're participating because they're masters of woo-way, | |
and what they're doing is for instance, um, you know, allowing everybody to see Biden's approach to uh the United States, to um, you know, being El Presidente, uh, you know, open borders, uh fucked up economy, | |
uh, you know, fucked up international military, uh fucked up um vaccine mandates, killing people, uh, you know, fucked up uh education system, uh basically whatever they touch, you know, uh everything woke gets fucked. | |
So um it were you know turns to shit, I think is the official term. | |
Um but in any event, so so now that people have seen, are seeing, are awake, they're they're are awakened by seeing, and they are in the process of changing as a result of having seen all of this and all the stuff that they're going to be seeing over this next week, because we're now hitting into the economic aspect of it. | |
There's gonna be other um tense situations geopolitically, we're gonna see the regime fail in a number of other ways, and it's gonna be necessary that uh people react. | |
That'll be the point of reaction. | |
And so um if you know if you know Wu Wei and you you uh see how energies and you've moved these energies and see how they develop, then you can look out and you can say, oh wow, look, these energies are developing over here. | |
It's popping off over here. | |
This is happening there. | |
And so uh there are times to wait, but there's never a time where waiting is uh passive. | |
Okay, even in waiting, there's a there's a uh a routine, there's things you do, there's discipline that must be applied even in Wu-Way. | |
It's not this uh, you know, go with the flow, you know, get really stoned, fall on the floor, pass out, and uh, you know, miss the whole thing approach, right? | |
Not that at all. | |
This is an active inactive participation. | |
You apply the woo-way to itself, and so you're waiting. | |
All right, okay, cool. | |
I've got, you know, I've got good books to read, uh, you know, I'm I'm dealing with my uh uh energies here and and doing my training and and this kind of thing. | |
Um and so there are things that you do within that period of time. | |
Now, right at the moment, in my particular uh instance right here, we've got a very large storm uh that potentially is gonna take out electricity and all of that. | |
I'm all set up for that. | |
So I'm cleaning, right? | |
Because uh I want to get all this stuff sorted because we're gonna be hitting this big economic crisis and the supply chains are gonna be disrupted for some period of time. | |
Um and then they're gonna get sorted out as we start sorting things out. | |
But during that period of disruption, I want to be able to have things nice and neat. | |
And this is a good time to get at all of this stuff, and I'm planning some new new projects. | |
So uh in this sense, during the during the periods of inactivity, you train. | |
You sharpen in a martial arts sense, you sharpen your weapons, you know, you you practice your your Ukimi arts, you you do your forward rolls, all of this kind of stuff. | |
You get your body in shape because it is necessary that you do these things such that when there is actually dynamic action expected of you, you're capable of doing it because you haven't been sitting around, you know, on your mama's couch just playing the video games, right? | |
Um we're at a very interesting point. | |
I think that the Wu Wei uh of our social order will be expressed in a very interesting way to the Chinese very soon, like perhaps days, perhaps mere days. | |
We have Wu Wei masters. | |
Our traditions here in the United States would say that we don't have that, that we don't have a culture, but we have the most Wu-wei culture of them all. | |
We have the most I key culture of them all because we have harmony within the giant mass of disharmony, that the giant mass of disarray, the giant mass of uh disorder and and uh uh anything you can want to describe it, uh, that is the collective United States of America, right? | |
Uh we are at home in our disarray. | |
We are at home in our uh non-concordance. | |
We don't all follow the same flow. | |
So we get there, but we have all of these other different ways of getting there. | |
And in being non-harmonious among ourselves, we do have a Wu-Way form of harmony. | |
And it's difficult to explain. | |
Graphically, it would look like all of the Chinese are all on the same wavelength at all the time, right? | |
Because of the CCP forcing them into these wave guides so that all the Chinese go like that to progress this way. | |
Our social order, we have all of these people doing all this weird shit all the time, all of this kind of crap. | |
You know, I mean, it is from the outside, it is entirely disorganized, has no harmony in it whatsoever. | |
Nonetheless, though, we will note that we progress faster and to some degree better, because in our progression, we explore all of the possibilities as we go forward because we are so uh non-concordant. | |
We don't follow the same chord. | |
We're not all in the same flow here. | |
And that actually is one of our strengths if we have the Wu Wei masters that are through in our society that are pulling and tugging and so on. | |
And I think we do. | |
I think we've got Wu-Way up the ass, right? | |
We've got that shit just leaking out of our hair. | |
And the Chinese think this too. | |
So um, and this really disturbs them. | |
A great deal of the Chinese now, so there's a couple of categories of books. | |
You can find um uh the hundred year marathon, it's a very good book uh on Amazon, and you'll find a bunch of other books that are recommended. | |
Uh, and it's it's interesting to see that there's there's three different categories that um uh will appear to you. | |
Those books that are written by uh native English speakers, those books that are written by the Chinese, and then those books that are written by other Asian um thinkers, okay, other non-Chinese Asians, right? | |
So there's a couple of Filipino guys that are really acute um China watchers, and they've got a couple of books out there as well. | |
All of these books are about this uh unrestricted warfare, this 100-year marathon concept that China is attempting to once again take over the planet as they see it as their natural position to rule everybody. | |
Within that that, there's all those threads going all the way down to the people that want to eliminate everybody that's not Chinese. | |
Uh we might consider these people to be like the ultimate right wing on China because they're the ultimate uh Chinese supremacists, and they want to just basically kill off all the other races so that they have garden earth to support the Chinese. | |
So there's a huge range in their thinking, but basically it all goes towards China dominant, you know, uh the Chinese Empire, the Chinese um millennium is is what they're thinking. | |
Not the so in the last century it used to be called the American century. | |
We dominated the last century. | |
The Chinese want to dominate the next millennium. | |
They've got real problems. | |
The Chinese have got serious serious problems, and people that can see the dynamic and the energies involved understand or can see some of the things that are going to be coming that will be challenging the CCP in this very short period of time here. | |
And I personally don't think that they've got the acumen to uh pull through cohesive in the way that they are now. | |
So I think China will transform itself. | |
Whether or not it it officially continues to pursue those policies is another thing entirely. | |
But I think that the Chinese uh transformation will alter all of our relationships with China and even China's uh relationship with itself uh over, say the next 30 or 40 years in a very serious way. | |
Because we have to we have to the Wu Wei masters will tell you, you know, it's getting cold, right? | |
The Earth's getting cold. | |
We have to alter ourselves. | |
We've got to become new humans for a new period of time. | |
This new period of time might be several hundred years. | |
We don't know. | |
There's scientists that are saying it that it's going to be a small minimum. | |
There are scientists that are saying that they can produ uh they can analyze this and make projections. | |
And we can analyze, I'm certain we've analyzed them correctly from the clues from that are left on the planet uh for these uh minimums for these grand solar minimums. | |
Uh but I don't know that because there's a diversity of types of of these grand solar minimums, I don't know that we can predict which type we're in until after we get out of it. | |
So we may not know. | |
So there are a couple of these um convergences that would suggest it might be as long as 125 years, or it might be as uh uh up to or longer than 600 years that we would be in a uh a minimum. | |
Some of these things I think are determinant by determined by the um position of or or the type of space, the type of place we are in space uh following our sun. | |
So the uh uh spatial aspects we would not be able to tell before our sun got there. | |
We can't see anything, we can't analyze anything ahead of our suns pulling us uh into the interstellar um media. | |
So our sun uh has a heliosphere that basically sort of looks like this, it's a bow wave kind of a thing, and all of the planets are back here, and it's all jaggedy. | |
Um, but the sun's and this and our sun's corona is out like that. | |
Um but we have this sort of elliptical thing within this. | |
And we can we can do things like send satellites out, but we have yet to send a satellite beyond this point here. | |
All of our satellites usually go back the long, you know, the voyagers and so on are basically headed out as opposed to trying to get on the other side of the sun because the sun's pulling everything so fast that way the the I the idea that we could get something on the other side and it could get back information to us is is a non-sequitur. | |
It just isn't going to happen because of the corona, because of the magnetosphere around the sun, anything that we could possibly engineer to get out there ahead of it, even if it was still within the bow wave of so to speak of the sun, would not be able to get back any meaningful electromagnetic radiation to us. | |
We wouldn't be able to even see it out there because we can't see on the other side of the sun. | |
Um but our uh so we couldn't tell what kind of space our sun is getting into and and thus predict when this thing would end relative to being able to like you know see the oh geez, we're on a gravel road now, but oh hey, look, if we stand up in the car and look ahead uh with these binoculars, we can see that two miles down the road there, it turns into asphalt and we'll be having smoother road. | |
We can't do that because of the nature being drugged through these uh dense regions of space. | |
And now the um the scientists are saying that there's actually these uh plasmodic tubes uh that weave through space and and are interwoven in space. | |
Let me just get rid of that to show the effect. | |
And so that we have in that we as the sun might be traveling in this tube here, you know, with our sun, and here's all the planets being drugged behind it in this cone. | |
And it's heading through this particular plasma tube. | |
So our sun just is not just simply plowing straight through interstellar media. | |
There is something that is driving it, these magnetic, these plasmatic or plasmotic tubes can be thought of as the um the driving engine, the magnetic driving engine that is pulling our sun from giving it the impetus, telling it to move from one point of space to another. | |
Because there's uh, you know, this is the um the propulsion method that's been proposed uh for the um uh traveling solar system model, right? | |
Anyway, and so we would just stay in our tube here, and as our tube moves and wanders through space, that's also what happens. | |
So it would be uh so we are making assumptions, even if we did get something right out here looking this particular way, we're making assumptions that we're heading out into that space, but in fact we might be turning and we'd have no way of knowing ahead of time. | |
So it becomes very complex. | |
But anyway, all of this stuff rules our weather, and we're into one of these minimums. | |
Uh it's going to affect our geopolitical situation, uh, because everything affects our geopolitical situation, you know, food, all of this kind of stuff. | |
But um, as I say, our Wu Wei masters are are doing things here in the Western world, and um humanity is going to start changing in a serious way. | |
We're gonna have this abrupt departure with the past. | |
I think it'll happen on the 28th. | |
Uh it'll be a very sharp separation in terms of um mentally, it'll be something that will clearly say this is here is the demarcation line. | |
And it'll also, to those people who know that Wu Wei exists, it will be a sign that, oh yeah, you know, there is a Wu Wei master out there making these little moves. | |
So now there's a thing about the Wu Wei mastery, the idea of Wu Wei mastery. | |
Okay, so um you're all right. | |
So there's this, all right. | |
There's a story, and it's a um uh a very good story, and it it's illustrative, it's a martial arts story, and it is uh probably one of the best ones that that I know. | |
And uh I think uh because of the way I know it, I believe that it was uh set in northern Japan uh in a time of um feudal infighting. | |
And now you know ninjas, that's a Japanese martial art tradition, right? | |
The ninja were uh basically crude thugs for the main part of it, you know, most of them died. | |
Um there are very few ninja masters and all of that. | |
Uh they were um strong arm, and they were, you know, your security force, they might even be your own anti-fa if you were trying to create problems in another prefecture, right? | |
Uh in Japan, another uh warlord's territory. | |
Uh but um so anyway, there's this one particular ninja, and he gets this, and he's he's very well known, and you have to really go through a lot of trouble to even get his attention and all of this kind of stuff. | |
And unlike the other ninja, he had he he was a wuwe master, actually, is the situation. | |
Um this was before the concepts of the Ronan and the samurai were that solidified in the in the social milieu. | |
Uh but um so this guy uh is uh approached by a particular warlord who is an who's inherited. | |
He's okay. | |
So this uh the one warlord gets killed, and this young nephew inherits the kingdom. | |
The young nephew doesn't want any of this, uh he's not a hard case, he's uh reasonably young in the story. | |
I don't know how young it's in not material, but he does not want this level of warfare that's going to result from his um uncle having been killed and him having taken over the uh prefecture as a result of this. | |
Um, because it was clear that there was a bungled assassination, it was very clear uh all of this sort of thing, right? | |
Uh that it was who did it and it's this neighboring guy, and then it's so there's got to be armies raised, there's gonna be war, all of this kind of shit. | |
And this kid, just on taking over things and looking at everything, says, I don't want this. | |
You know, he was not a martially oriented fellow. | |
He didn't want to get into the war and all of that. | |
He knew his responsibilities, he knew he had to do something, and so uh he chose to um uh involve the this uh Wu Wei master, okay, who was this ninja, and uh uh this was an IK guy. | |
And so uh he goes and he talks to this fellow, long story, he comes up to the the ninja dude's house and they they discuss it and he explains what he needs and stuff, and the ninja guy says, Okay, I'll take the job. | |
I understand what you're after. | |
You simply want the the conditions of the circumstances to change such that war is averted with as little um expenditure of life uh in the in this process as may be possible. | |
And the kid says, Yes, yes, that's all I want. | |
Um and so uh they make an arrangement the immaterial to the story, and the kid goes off, and uh then before he goes off, the ninja guy says, uh it'll be done within this next month. | |
Uh prepare your armies as though you were going to war, put a great effort into it, but involve yourself in the internal dynamics of your prefecture, set things right while your people are occupied with the thought of this war, make yourself strong while the people are thought while the people are thinking that you're going to be going to war, make yourself strong internally, but you will not go to war. | |
And so um so anyway, okay, so there it's a long story, there's a lot of messages in it. | |
And the upshot is that uh within that month uh that the guy the ninja had promised the the kid, um the the bad guy of the story, the the opponent is traveling from one point to another to go and meet with his generals and is going to go um and review the armies and stuff. | |
The ninja warrior guy, the Wu Wei master, uh had spent that month going up through the hills and stuff, comes up to this particular hill, uh, gets it to this particular hill. | |
He's been camping out, uh he's been uh fasting, eating rice, cold rice, all of this kind of stuff. | |
There's all these messages in there, and then one morning he gets up and he takes this big stick he's got and he just pulls and pulls and pulls and pulls with this big stick as a point of leverage until he gets this reasonably sized rock to start moving. | |
The reasonably sized rock starts moving, it starts rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling, tearing up trees, creating a mudslide, all this kind of stuff. | |
And of course, the bad guy in his carriage and his entourage is coming just up over the pass at that point that all this debris comes rushing on down and just pushes all these fuckers into the ravine and they're all killed. | |
Um so the war is averted, right? | |
And then that's basically the uh from our viewpoint, the end of our interaction with this story, because here we had the um the conclusion of the dynamics of the expression of that energy that began when that kid started talking to that began in the thought when the kid said that you know he was not um interested in going to war. | |
And then he goes and involves the ninja and so on, right? | |
And uh it way through this long long story. | |
It was a really good story. | |
I mean, if you read these kind of things. | |
But in the end, you find out that of course it's the it's the nephew, it's the kid that inherited the prefectures that is the Wu Wei master, because he was mastery, he had enough mastery of himself to understand even at that young age that this was no good for anybody, that you know, his hormones, his anger over his uncle's death, the way he died, all of this kind of stuff, uh was not good for anybody, and his revenge would destroy these two prefectures, it would kill these two kingdoms for him to get the revenge. | |
Uh he ends up getting his revenge uh after he had surrendered it in the appropriate Wu-wei fashion, right? | |
Even though he didn't take the revenge, it was a clean revenge Because he knew that the um that that particular enemy would never never harm him again. | |
Justice was done, all of those sorts of things. | |
But from my viewpoint, it's the um uh the guy knowing that you know there's only one pass, this guy's gonna have to get his army over in this particular area, he's gonna have to come with a certain size of uh entourage. | |
I can't, as an old man, this this was the ninja guy, he said, you know, I can't as an old man get out there and fight them all. | |
Uh, but it's necessary that this at least this one man shall die, which was the fellow who'd started it all, the guy that poisoned the kid's uncle. | |
And uh so he he set out, took him almost a month to you know pack his lunches and get up there and and subsist and find the right rock and get the right stick and all of that, and just set it down and wait. | |
And then he just waited, and while he was waiting, he uh had his cold rice and he contemplated the in his in his language the I key of it all, right? | |
The harmony of it all. | |
And then at that particular moment, when universe moved him, he moved the rock and all was done. | |
And so that's where we're at at this particular moment, and people are moving rocks over this weekend, and we shall see uh the the woo-wei emerge in our woo fashion. | |
Long story, guys, my storm's hitting, I gotta get my uh my office cleaned up. | |
Uh we shall, okay, so this too shall pass, we shall win this war, we shall change humanity, and we shall build sci-fi world. | |
And um we shall make many Wu Wei masters, and even though we don't have the culture that says Wu Wei in our in our substrates of our culture, our linguistics, and so on, it's there. |
