Part One: Personal Anarchy
When I was sixteen years old, I decided that the UK government system was unfit for purpose. It was an authoritarian killing machine run by bastards. Nothing has changed, by the way.
Looking for better ways to run things, I read a big book about Karl Marx and Communism. I became a communist for about a fortnight, until I couldn't take the obvious contradictions any longer - plus the fact that communism and violence all too often went hand-in-hand. Communist-run nations didn't look that good, really.
I went on to some study of political anarchism. I failed to fall in love with the heroes of 19th century anarchism, Proudhon and Bakunin: they seemed very 'straight' from the perspective of a 1969 long hair. Nevertheless, there was a good degree of resonance with anarchism, and I would muse on how the world might have been a better place, had Bakunin won his ideological duels with Karl Marx.
Anarchism appeared to come in two intertwined yet separate strands. There was the collective, syndicalist thread - think 1930s Catalonia - and the more individualistic one, embraced more by artists, writers, philosophers. Ever since, if anybody had pushed me into giving myself a political label, I would have had to opt for anarchism.
Subsequent communal living within a back-to-the-land ethos became a practical manifestation of this core attitude. Our instinct and analysis both told us that the whole shithouse was rotten from the inside. Attempting to work 'within the system' was a complete waste of time, and the only hope for a better life was to re-create a complete alternative.
And it was a similar attitude that coloured the earlier period of my life in Buddhism, a move I made when I realised the primacy of consciousness. In the language of the day, you need to get your head together before you can do anything else worthwhile. So my Buddhism included community living and working in Buddhist businesses. It was a matter of creating a new kind of society.
I submit that the overall thinking was absolutely spot-on. Reforming a system that is rotten to its roots isn't a realistic proposition. Using its own institutions will be pretty much doomed to failure. I have said for years that the reliance of more modern alternative media and culture on the tech giants of Silicon Valley was a very naive and foolish thing, a prediction that has proven all too true in recent years. You need to create alternatives, and if they get taken down by authoritarian psychopaths, you need to brush off the dust and try again. It's the only way.
Part Two: There it is
As so often nowadays, it's there staring us in the face.
Anarchism. Anarchy. An-arch-y. According to the dictionary, 'Arch' denotes a position of superiority. Deriving from the Greek 'archein', to begin or to rule. It also means 'chief' or 'extreme'.
Arch: superiority, ruling. Power, authority, we could add. Arch-angel. Arch-bishop. Arch-enemy. Arch-on. You get the drift.
'An' is a prefix meaning 'without, lacking.'
So 'Archon' is a superior, ruling, authority being. And an-archy is 'without archon'. To live as an anarchist is to live free of the archons. The spirit of anarchism is, at the very least 'small government', 'as little as possible government', 'localised as much as possible government.' Conversely, globalism is the archontic world writ large.
As the covid situation began to emerge in February/March of this year, I found any lingering faith I might have in any authorities simply crumble to dust. Since then, I have failed to believe a single word uttered by an 'authority', at least not without investigating it thoroughly first. Now I understand why.
'Authorities' as generally understood are under the spell, under the control, of archons. They channel the archon spirit into everyday human existence. And it has become clear that the covid situation is predominantly a power grab by the archontic spirit, a massive bid to take over human life and take down the human spirit for ever. Conversely, it is not surprising that authorities are frequently observed being officious, authoritarian, overstepping the mark, during these times. It is the day of the archon, after all.
The only real solution is for the entire archontic network to be dismantled. The Queen, Westminster, Holyrood; 'aides', 'advisers', 'experts'; scientists; media, the 'news'; education, academia, 'intellectuals'; the current banking and money system; the church; the military, police, and judiciary hierarchies. That'll do for this little corner of the universe for starters. If enough people woke up to what is actually going on, what is being done to them, then this would happen. In the meantime, we're stuck in the shithouse. And planet Earth is sliding towards being off the radar for any consciousness that wishes to commune with its own true nature.
Part Three; The Aeons
There is something satisfying - er, self-satisfying even - to come up with notions, reach certain conclusions, and find them echoed afterwards in other sources.
I have been reading 'Everything you need to know but have never been told' by David Icke. It's a thick book, like all his books. Actually, although I am familiar with his work generally, this is the first full-length book that I have come to read. And I have only read the first half. The second part goes in depth into matters such as political correctness, woke mentality, modern parapolitics: I know this territory pretty well, and could do without still more of this at the moment.
Anyhow, in the first, bigger-picture, part of his book, he talks about science and its diabolic nature, just as has been elucidated on Pale G.V. recently. And he writes at length and with great clarity on that topic of topics: the archons.
Icke's writing echoes much of what has gone onto this blog about the archons over the years, and in detail recently. I suspect he has sourced quite heavily John Lash, but there is plenty of other material as well. Reading David's sections on the Gnostics and the archons, it becomes possible to describe the Gnostic view of how human life on this planet works in simple terms, and how it's in its dire situation today.
So, very simply, there are three strata to the universe as we know it:
1. The Upper Aeons. This is where we find the Aeons, divine emanations if you like from Source, Infinite Awareness, God even (though Icke does not use this word in this way). These are pure manifestations, from where all creation comes (the language is not to be taken too literally).
2. The Lower Aeons. It is said that the Aeon Sophia, in a disastrous experiment, decided to create without her partner, her counterpart, her consort, outside the syzygy. Out of the Upper Aeons she fell, and what she created was of necessity unbalanced, out of harmony with the divine flow in the universe. This is 'the world' as we typically know it.
Icke effectively calls this creation 'a bad copy'. Superficially it bears some similarities with the divine of the Upper Aeons, but it is not the real thing. It is a simulation, or a 'matrix'. It is the lot of most human beings to inhabit this bad copy of a world, unaware of the Upper Aeons, and erroneously considering it to be the one-and-only reality.
3. As if this wasn't bad enough, the Demiurge, the impostor, the false god, came onto the scene. He pretended to be the creator of everything, but his simple wish was to subvert human life, in particular to disconnect it from the properly divine, the Upper Aeons. This is his nefarious project, and in order to achieve his demonic goals he has an army of supporters and foot soldiers, focal among whom are the archons.
Like the reptilians and various other dark forces, the archons are inorganic. They do not create, cannot create and be original - they have no connection to Infinite Awareness, the source of all creativity - but only imitate and simulate. Their mind is technological, robotic, psychopathic. And here we are.
David also provides a more 'scientific' explanation of what I generally call multidimensionality, and how entities such as archons and reptilians can move from one (eg human) into another (eg non-human) dimension. The universe is composed of wave-form energy, and we, in our 'third dimensional reality', are simply experiencing a single frequency band among many. But the frequency can be altered, just as on a television set.
Icke appears ambiguous on the relationship between the Lower Aeons and the world of the archons and demiurge. It is a question that has deep implications. At times he writes as if the entire 'bad copy' is the realm of the demiurge, in which case all of our everyday world can easily be seen as nefarious in nature. At other times, he seems to admit what I feel to be the case. The Lower Aeons provide possibilities for human life to go either way.
There exist in the Lower Aeons reflections of the Upper realms: beauty, for example, the best in art; human courage, love, honesty, kindness. Authenticity. These are all like trickle-downs from Source, and proper spiritual existence involves cultivating a likeness in our own lives to the divine, so that eventually a door opens up, a channel through which energy readily flows to and from the Infinite.
The Lower Aeons are the result of a mistake, but through Sophia their creator, they are nevertheless still connected to Source. I think Icke's equating of Lower Aeons and demiurgic/archontic activity is the root of the feeling of powerlessness which can overtake a person (such as me, anyhow) if over much time is spent delving into his information. I love David Icke: his work and example have helped me no like no other over the past few months. I shall remain eternally grateful. But even Icke is not perfect.....
