Those who are Awake have no obligations to those who are asleep.

sticks and stones? hell if it feeds you, use it. natural selection isnt just for the wild.

Wow i couldn't wrap up my feeling in one word.. thats funny ...

so what is your definitions of awake, ranhome and xtexan?

reply to post by guinnessford


I would say being "awake" would equate to being prepared for whatever. Not so set in your ways that if the system fell you wouldn't be able to make it, ya know? Have your eyes open to whats around you not just droning through life. If that makes sense...

There's also the whole metaphysical side of "awake" but thats not really my specialty, so I just try to be a good person, lol.

that about sums up where i stand also. im also guessing you dont feel the need to stand on a soapbox and scream conspiracy in the middle of the street, but would be more than willing to engage someone in a conversation, or even try to educate on it?

reply to post by guinnessford


No, I won't be screaming in the streets or anything like that, lol. I have no problem talking to someone about it if they care to have the conversation... though I may be a bit more vocal with those I care about and what not.

I mean in the long run, the less people left after SHTF means more resources for me to plunder. Sounds kinda selfish I know, but in the end you may have to be selfish to survive.

Errr.... that's exactly how the NWO thinks. Who cares about us we're just the serfs, the cattle, the sheep, the ignorant masses. This is exactly how the NWO thinks, also how are us who are awoken meant to stop the NWO if we don't try and awaken everybody else?

Didn't Jesus say something to the effect of ' I have come and found everyone asleep?' He came along to give everyone a message, but they were sleeping in their souls and obviously common sense. Its easier to dream about tomorrow or contemplate what will be for dinner tonight, or when is little Timmy's ball game than to keep in mind the big picture that is constantly before us. i understand being separated from the herd. You can no more raise a wolf with lambs than have me amongst the self concerned overworked underpaid chasing after the jones' lifestyle folk. I tried to belong. And I do help when I can. I had to come to the sad conclusion though you cannot awaken those who are not ready be it spiritual, mental, or physical. I don't help because I expect any reward, but because its the right thing to do. My distain is held for those cattle who think they are enlightened, when all they can really do is moo without their voices breaking.

I think you might be too lazy to move on.
Perhaps you lack faith?
Remember Orpheus? Why the hell he turned to check out whether Eurydice followed?

There is a point when you must depart, and those who feel they can learn something from you, or from the path you are walking, have to shake off their drowsiness and start walking.

If you think that you should spend your life siting by the bed of the sleeping ones, well, think about it...

Actually, I don't even have to be here at all. I was given the chance to leave nearly 2 years ago. I literally only stay back to help others. The lazy move would be to forget all the other people and say screw it. That is the lazy move.

If you want to be lazy, go right ahead. But when you are putting your efforts into trying to make other people lazy, or make other people not wake up others, then I'm sorry, but you are a part of an agenda that has been around for as long as recorded history.

I am here by my own choice. I do what I do by my own choice. I have waken up tons of people in my time. I do not get credit for it usually, and it doesn't happen overnight. But ever little seed of truth I give to someone grows in their mind until the point where they can no longer the big tree they see.

So speak for yourself. I don't have trouble waking people up.

ill say it again. some of us can teach, others cannot. either lacking patience, skill, or desire, we cannot do it. some are blessed with that skill, and others arent. it has nothing to do with being selfish. at least with me. im trying to reach a few people and they are listening. and they will tell a few, and so on.

What time is it?
When I get through this day
Can someone tell me how
And how much longer now
Am I awake?

The coffee's cold, did I forget to drink it yet
Did I forget?
My clothes are wet I don't remember drinking it

When I get through this part
Will the next one be the same
Will I be wondering
If I'm awake?

These are not the clothes I had on when I went to bed
And something else besides my hair is growing from my head
And when I close my eyes it looks the same as when I open them again

the problem though is that dumping all the "asleep" people means no more social life so there is a rut to be stuck in

You sicken me. If you were truly Awake you'd wouldn't be looking down on someone who isn't as wise as you. I mean, you haven't always been Awake have you?

The OP isnt using the word "awake" like it is used in spiritual discussions. He is using it more along the lines of "con artist = awake" and "poor sucker= asleep." Who he is calling the "awake" (the very wealthy) most spiritual and philosophical traditions would say are the sleepers.

(with some famous exceptions like Nietzsche)

It is a form of awakenedness, but it is up to you as an individual to consider whether material wealth is all there is to wake up and see. Not everyone agrees that the game of "more stuff" is the only one worth playing.

Many of the "conspiracies" painted in such sinister colors (the NWO, etc) will really be blessings for those of us who think and feel in full vibrant color and what becomes of those who see grey and eat gruel is of no consequence to us.

Take it from the longhaired libertarian.

Rock 'n roll.

How Sweet... Little Lord Fauntleroy (aka.manganesejolt) has deemed we wretched underling masses worthy of receiving his sublime "urban haute bourgeois" proclamation of superiority~

Perhaps one day...the rare thin air of Mt. Olympus will cease sustaining his benevolent visage and the novelty of "thinking and feeling in full vibrant color" will shudder languidly in the post collegiate, detoxifying throes of waning, coddled, ivy-league, middle-aged mediocrity.

He brazenly presumes to declare supposed superiority and yet his "wet behind the ears" greenhorn worldview shines forth for all to behold as a testament to the validity of tigers eating their own young.

I will endeavor to rustle up a bit of cinnamon to enliven your gruel if we should happen to cross paths on the road of LIFE dear Prince... ~MAY YOU FIND WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR~

Nice post. I saw the movie, but dont remember the whole thing. I dont remember the movie version of the answer to that question, but my own answer is "fear." Humans really arent lazy. They will work endless crazy hours to avoid facing their fear.

If you are truly awake, than you realize that we are all connected. The ego allows you to easily levitate in importance over disadvantaged individuals in your perception of the universe.

Would you have the same opinion if you were born with genetic mutations due to depleted uranium bullets?

Nope, he's blaming ignorant people for being ignorant, and for good reason. The truth is that until these people decide to spiritually awake and realize all the lies they've been taught they'd be nothing to worry about. There are so many people out there who refuse to look at the truth, and they will sadly get what they deserve. Why should we worry about those who choose being blind?

The sweat is showing in your post and brother believe me I don’t blame you. The truth is from a managerial and logistical standpoint the Powers that Be should have spent a little more time actually in class, studying their books, and learning sound management and logistical abilities than social networking and partying. The whole lot of the New World Order crowd is the biggest group of incompetent self indulgent screw ups I have ever met in my life. The only thing that gives you any cohesion and motivation is staying one step ahead of the Judges Gavel, the Jury Box full of the pears you so despise and fear, and the hangman’s noose. My heroes try zeros.

I was born awake in a family where all but the eldest patriarch was asleep. He championed the average man, the worker, the honest man, and shunned the powers that be who relied on him in turn to provide both the technical expertise and managerial oversight to create, forge and bring their products to market. He told the Powers that Be the Truth. It’s better business to let the workers unionize, pay them a real living wage, and provide them a safe working environment, initial costs are higher, but workers are more productive and quality oriented and the additional profits far outweigh the initial out lays. They went a long after all the formula for forging their product was in his head not theirs.

I was 26 years old with a seventh grade education when I was first invited by some of the Powers that Be into their circle and to meet others of them at the Jonathan Club in Los Angeles. More trips there and to the California Club and Bohemian Club and Grove would expose me to many more. Most were products of Harvard or Yale most only hired products of Harvard or Yale, all confided admiringly the same thing. We have no idea how you learned the amazing things you know from the streets and the school of hard knocks but oh how we wish they taught it at Yale and Harvard.

They were an excellent source of business for my business because of a hierarchy they were all compelled to follow, a referral from on top would ripple all the way down without question. The New World Orders only strength is its ability out of necessity born of fear and greed to stick together and maintain their ranks. Their over inflated egos, excessive greed and sometimes glaring lack of talent and sound logistical planning will be their undoing.

I have a seventh grade education for one reason. I have always been fighting in one form or another the powers that be. Some times I have aided them willingly and at others without knowing where our agendas seem to coincide.

The truth is the sheeple aren’t to blame for these events you extol us to keep cool about. The arrogant and incompetent powers that be who conspired in every conceivable way to lull and keep them asleep or at least intimidated and scared are the managers that screwed up this pooch. Often bound to that task only to keep and hide the source of Daddy’s money and preserve Daddy’s manufactured reputation and freedom.

I can smell your fear. Your plans keep falling apart and getting pushed back. There is a musical chairs game going on too. The ranks are thinning, the games they are playing become more apparent as they become more desperate to a mounting tide of increasing numbers of awakened and truly skilled and better motivated adversaries who bring the fight to you with a passion born out of conviction, not greed, laziness or obligation.

There are many powers that be my brother. Some of which your brethren know, many more though you are desperate to gauge the numbers off who in fact intent to use every power at their disposal to protect the lovable sheeple from the herd dogs who in fact aren’t the good Sheppard but merely opportunistic and cowardly wolves in disguise.

Don’t put your incompetence, negligence, poor planning, and lack of better vision down as anything but what it is.

Great news there will be a New World Order just not the despotic and morally decayed and inherently flawed one you desperately envision. You had six thousand years to pull it off and like the bored, disaffected, and overly self indulgent people you are, you put it off to the eleventh and last hour to make a sloppy last ditch effort.

The real powers that be are here now. Time is set to expire. Game, set, match, you loose. Wolves can’t smell fear, just easy pickings to be gained by slinking and stealth. The sheepdog can smell fear. This dog can smell yours!

When one raises themself, they raise all others. We are a unit of energy. It's how the fall was achieved, only lowered (1st one 'down,' wins all the land and riches!). The actual ability to raise is good on all levels, but you will achieve more by raising those around you, without complaint, because you know.

Very, very few will achieve the Pearl; many will achieve the higher spiritual state; masses will be caught dead asleep. Numbers count, for the spiritual state is dependent: it's called plasma potentials, the ability to resonate with the Word, which is One (non-dogmatic expression).

Unconsciousness...............asleep.
Self-Awareness.................low and High.
Awareness of One Self.......the Many in One.
