The true measure of authority in any situation (or any field) is when the truth is spoken, written or perceived. Attempting to establish authority without the measure of truth is to fabricate a false authority based on at least phantasmal belief, if not outright lies.
The famous quote by Gerald Massey speaks of this aspect of our human lives:
We have the potential to be the authentic authors of our own authority in life; to be free from the will of others being imposed upon us against our own free will. But we can get lost in authoring our own lives authentically. The authority of self can willfully disregard reality and truth in order to author fantasies, beliefs, lies or unreality as though it were reality.
When we are disintegrated, disharmonious, misaligned, and contradictory to reality, we are in opposition to the truth in reality and are not living authentically by the truth as the authority. In such cases, we have supplanted the supreme authority of truth to say what is and what is not. We have made ourselves the false authority
to decide whatever we want to be the "truth" about reality -- to be the
arbiter of truth, rather than let truth demonstrate it's own authority
to decide for us what is actually in reality. Justice against what's
wrong doesn't come when we corrupt reality, truth or morality. When we
create falsity through false authority, injustice reigns.
Is it right and true that 1+1=3 or 1+1=2?
The authority to determine the answer is not our self-deluded attempt
to authorize 1+1=3. We don't have that false authority. Trying to author
false authority on truth-reality-existence is being inauthentic. Being authentic, genuine and real is to be right and true (maa). Being wrong and standing against the truth of reality is not being authentic, but is rather being a fool who stands for what's wrong. Simply saying 1+1=3 doesn't make it so.
Is it right, true and good that smoking cannabis is a crime?
In our current condition, it's true that deluded people have taken
their false authority to author a false reality (unreality) and declare
smoking pot a crime. But is it truly a crime? No. False authenticity tries to author a false reality through false authority.
Instead of creating right, good and true ways of living, they create
wrong, evil and false ways of living. People are put into cages or
coerced and extorted into paying fines -- even though they did not harm
others.
Those of us who have less conditioning --
who don't obey the chain of authority; who have less attachment to
falsity -- recognize that the so-called "authorities" in our way of life
are stupid and idiotic in their actions. We have truer, higher and realer conscious awareness and self-development making us more authentic and capable of recognizing the authority of truth -- of what is right, good, true and moral. The "authorities" and their supporters are falser, lower, and unrealer selves; unaware and unconsciously living, doing wrongs as though they were right; or transforming what's right into a wrong.
The "authorities" and their assumed false
"authority" don't determine what is plainly true as part of reality,
nor what is morally right, good and true.
Evolving consciousness to develop more self-knowledge and self-awareness will allow comprehension of greater truths and moral truths to live by, which allows us to be more authentic, genuine, realer and truer selves. We can author our lives in the authenticity of having the authority of truth by our side; integrated and united with truth and moral truth, not in opposition to it as an adversary.
Conscience is
the internal guiding system humanity is blessed with having. It is
literally your compass to living in the Right. Police and Military side
swipe their consciences by following orders from their masters. Police
make all kinds of justifications and excuses as to why they follow
through with immoral orders but there is no legitimate excuse.
Justifications
for burying the conscience are null and void. As it is the conscience
itself that will direct us toward what is moral, right, justified, and
true. The Ancient Mystery traditions considered the conscience the home
dwelling of the Higher self. To sell your soul means to disobey your
conscience.
The
Spiritual realm and the physical realm exist simultaneously. Natural
law is all about changing our current state of ignorance into another
state of knowledge. It is transmuting that which is erroneous and making
it Right. It's called the Law of Cause and Effect.
The Law of Cause and Effect is omnipresent across all scales, both in
the Macrocosm and the microcosm. So not only does it govern the whole
Universe, it governs all the individual parts that comprise the whole as
well.
And guess what? We're one of the individual parts. We are
not separate from nature, we are a part of it.
The spiritual realm is the realm of causation and the physical realm is
the realm of effects. If you don't like the effects you keep getting,
you can only change them in the realm of causation. It's like if you
want to kill a tree you have to strike at the root. The same principle
applies here.
To
get right with reason means that we can no longer afford to be an
ignorant nation. We need to start paying attention and taking ACTION in
the world to turn this system upside down. If we want to stop the
corruption, we must stop complying. It's that simple.
There are
very powerful forces out there banking off of us while we're unwittingly
goofing off at the club, or sitting around watching football. We can
not afford to put our defenses down and TRUST this government. They are
not there to benefit us, they are there to benefit their corporate
fascist friends.
