Alan Watts - To Know that You are God

Source: www.youtube.com
Alan Watts on the subjective experience of self knowledge
��� Alan Watts - To Know that You are God
To Know that you are God is another way of saying you are completely with this universe.' You feel profoundly rooted in it and connected with it.' You feel in other words that thew whole energy expresses itself in the 'galaxies.' it's intimate.' It is not something to which you are a stranger' but it is that which you what ever that is are intimately bound on. That in your seeing, your hearing, your talking , your thinking your moving.' You express that which it is that moves Sun and other Stars.' And if you don't know that well naturally you'll feel 'alien' you'll feel a stranger in the world AND IF YOU FEEL A STRANGER YOU'LL FEEL HOSTILE.' And therefore you start to bulldoze things about ,to beat it up and to try and to make the world submit to your will AND YOU BECOME A REAL TROUBLE MAKER.

African Mythology : Gods, Goddesses, Spirits, Legends from Africa

African Mythology: the Gods of over 70 African tribes. :
��� Concept of Deity
by John Henrik Clarke

To hold a people in oppression you have to convince them first that they are supposed to be oppressed. When the European comes to a country, the first thing he does is to laugh at your God and your God concept. And the next thing is to make you laugh at your own God concept. Then he don't have to build no jails for you then, cause he's got you in a jail more binding than iron can ever put you. Anytime you turn on your own concept of God, you are no longer a free man. No one needs to put chains on your body, because the chains are on your mind. Anytime someone say's your God is ugly and you release your God and join their God, there is no hope for your freedom until you once more believe in your own concept of the 'deity.' And that's how we're trapped. We have been educated into believing someone else's concept of the deity, and someone else's standard of beauty. You have the right to practice any religion and politics in a way that best suits your freedom, your dignity, and your understanding. And once you do that, you don't apologize.
Nothing the European mind ever devised was meant to do anything but to facilitate the European's control over the world. Anything that you get from Europe that you are going to use for yourself, remake it to suit yourself.
Where did we go wrong educationally? After the Civil War, the period called reconstruction, a period of pseudo-democracy, we began to have our own institutions, our own schools. We had no role model for a school, ... our own role model. So we began to imitate White schools.
Our church was an imitation of the White church. All we did is to modify the old trap. We didn't change the images, we became more comfortable within the trap. We didn't change the images, we changed some of the concepts of the images, but the images remained the same. So the mis-education that gave us a slave mentality had been altered. But it remained basically the same.'


WHAT DOES THE BIBLE TELL THE ISRAELITES TO DO IF SOME TRY TO CONVERT THEM?

If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him. Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you. You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery. And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst. (Deuteronomy 13:7-12 NAB)

DNA is the individual pieces that creates the foundation to your puzzle. But look at you! your puzzle shattered in to a thousand pieces. You don't even think for yourself .' The 400 years our DNA has been tampered with.
There's over 400 billion cells in the brain alone,which make the optic nerve the pineal glands,your brain is what you think with,so if i attack you mentally i'm tapping into your DNA. Affecting the way you,Affecting the way you live ,Affecting the way you make decisions.

75% of the black community don't read books.So that means you have a TV based culture.' So if i tell them that they a thug on TV' THEY GONE BE A THUG! If i tell them they a killers on TV,THEY GONE BE KILLERS! If i tell the girls to shake they ass and that's all the worth,THAT'S ALL THEY GONE DO! A TV BASED CULTURE!... Look at how they make a fool of them self.' They don't have no 'money' I just start let them start being ' millionaires.' I just let them start reading.' I never let them read,TV based culture,buffoons.' I been tampering with your DNA for years!

And even when i allow you to read,and i allow you to go to my college,and i give you a degree' I KNOW YOU STILL AIN'T SMART!... You know why? because i doctored the education,I allow you to receive.' I already know locked inside your DNA,You know what i'm teaching'

HEY I MADE THE MONTHS,I MADE THE CALENDER.' EVERYTHING IN THIS WHOLE SYSTEM I CREATED.' Let anybody question my system,and see if they don't end up like Martin Luther King' see if they don't end up like Malcolm X.' QUESTION MY SYSTEM,I DARE YOU!... I don't fuck with that DNA .I don't let you unlock it,cause if you unlock it,Then im in trouble.'

IF YOU STOP GOING TO MY CHURCHES,IM IN TROUBLE,CAUSE THAT'S HOW I CONTROL YOU!...The best conquering of a people.' I did a good job i sit back and i laugh' and i look at my white house THAT A BLACK MAN BUILT FOR ME.' I look at my white house.I wonder how old Benjamin Banneker is doing. After he built architect the white house,and i just let a black person in there.' But you black people don't even know that you built the white house. king james he didn't even fathom you reading the bible. You didn't even exist in King James mind.' But i still got the story here,and i still got this story controlling you people.

TV bases people. Look on the dollar,see that key? I tease you with your history,and i know you can't unlock your DNA,I control you,I control your women,I control everything ! But i know you really control, because you created,I need you! I need you! And everybody is not like me.' I have my own kind that loves you.'

I could shot up a car full of you today,and nothing with happen because its the norm.' I USE THE TV TO MAKE YOU NEGATIVE,TO MAKE YOU A NEGATIVE IMAGE,AND EVERYBODY LOOK AT YOU NEGATIVE.'

You can't get a job! cause i got you on TV robbing somebody,I got you on TV killing somebody,so when you go to that job that manager that boss is gonna look at you like that murderer,you're that killer .' I control you,I own you,I'm gonna keep tampering with your DNA' I got a lot in store for you! I got a lot in store for you!

I control you.I control you.I control your thoughts,I control your eyes ,I control your vision,I control your heart,you have to come to my doctor.You have to get my medicine. Even though i designed Aids and i designed all of these diseases.' You never ask yourself how a sexually transmitted disease, can break down your immune system and target itself.That's a master piece.' I give credit to my scientist.' we controlling your DNA.'

I OWN YOUR WOMENS MINDS. I make your women materialistic' YOU GOT TO HAVE FOR HER TO WANT TO BE WITH YOU!... she don't want to be with you if you don't have,I control her through that TV' I control your children through my cartoons. Look what i do in my cartoons,If you ever really sit down and look. Through them that's the pineal glands.The pineal glands is the center of your brain.'

THE INDIANS THEY PUT THE DOT THERE,THEY UNDERSTAND THE (pineal glands) SO WATCH AND LOOK WITH UNDERSTANDING' BREAK IT DOWN WHEN YOU SEE IT,AT THE SAME TIME YOU VISION,THE SAME TIME YOUR EYES TAKE IT IN YOU BREAK IT DOWN!...That's what your pineal glands let you do.' pineal, pineal glands.'

LOOK AT THEM.'IMAKE YOUR WOMEN THINK THEIR BEAUTY IS ONLY IN THEIR BODY.' THEY DON'T HAVE A BRAIN!... TO GET YOU THEY HAVE TO USE SEXUAL EXPLOITATIONS.'

I control them too. I control their DNA' AND THE WOMEN IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING,THAT'S THE BIGGEST CONQUER I NEED TO CONQUER.' I could just kill you! I want to conquer the women's mind, BECAUSE THE WOMEN IS THE ONE WHO RAISE THE CHILD.' THE WOMEN IS THE LIGHT, TO THE CHILDS MENTAL STATE,AND THE MENTAL CAPACITY.' I know the brain is similar to a refrigerator,IT ONLY HAS WHAT YOU OUT IN IT!

If you got a baloney sandwich in that refrigerator ,that's because you only put a baloney sandwich in that refrigerator! If you got vegetables ,if you got vitamins,if you got protein,that means you put it in there.THERE NO SUCH THING AS A DUMB OR SMART PERSON!...A BRAIN ADAPTS ,AND BRAIN IS A POWERFUL THING! But like i said, THE DNA CONTROLS THE BRAIN!...

Dr. Clarke:Black Liberation Was Just A Bunch Of Talk

Dr.John Henrik Clarke are we ready for the 21st century
��� Dr. Clarke:Black Liberation Was Just A Bunch Of Talk

Things that sustain you must be continued .The Jewish people are integrated into the total society.' You go to brandeis,It is clear at brandeis that you are going to a university that was found by Jews for the best interest of Jews ,and it will stay THAT WAY! and if you don't like it let the door hit you!... They don't change one iota to suit any body.'

Now if you want to go to the university the way it is ,all well and uh! But if you want to change it ,you got trouble.' They didn't change Einstein medical school' and they not going to! these universities are still going to be zionist universities ,i have nothing against that,I can deal with that! But shouldn't we have one or several or all so called black universities dedicated to black people the world over?

How many black universities teaching are teaching an African language? How many black universities have in debt course on what happen to Africa? and how many would dare mention OUT HOLOCAUST that started before,and how many black professors would have enough nerve to say that the people who were trapped into the German holocaust participated in every aspect of our holocaust, that's still going on ad they're participating in every aspect of it right now! Who will deal with our sentimental attachment, to the Hebrew mystique.' and how this mystique cam into being.'

during slavery we wanted to attach ourselves to a people who escaped from something.' We believed the EXODUS STORY MORE THEN THEY! AND STILL DO! We believed the story of the Hebrew children in the fire furnace,we believed it more then they right now!

WE CAN NOT SEPARATE FOLKLORE AND MYTHOLOGY FROM TRUTH! Folklore is beautiful' folklore is essential' Myth is essential to the ego to all people.' BUT MYTH IS NOT TRUTH!... MYTH IS BASED ON FOLKLORE!....

I grew up ,believing and reciting the stories of High John the Conqueror' cause any time we wanted some body to do something to a white person and get away with it,we bring in High John the conqueror .' Slap that mans face,kicked him until he was begging for mercy right out of the neighborhood.'

We didn't do it High John did it! I'm saying that it is essential that people tell stories that make them feel good about themselves.' All people tell stories to me them feel good about themselves,BUT YOU TEEL SOMEBODY ELESES STORY!

you haven't told your story yet! How did you get into the predicament,that you are in today, where you are totally unprepared to handle a NATION! Lets look at south Africa and the whole fight against apartheid.Its a good fight,i've been a part of it for 50 years of my life.


What is missing in the fight? the main thing that is missing is the fact that apartheid is not what the struggle in south Africa is mainly about.'

IT'S ABOUT EUROPEAN OR WHITE CONTROL OVER THE MINERAL WEALTH OF THE WORLD! They must control the Platnium' they must control the precious metals,they must control the gold,they must control the diamonds,especially the industrial diamonds.'

They can eliminate apartheid tomorrow! The school in the world is the colorado schools of mines in the United states,NOT ONE AFRICAN STUDENT NOT ONE BLACK STUDENT! studying at the colorado school of mines! If you going to take over south Africa you got to know how to control the mines,you got to control the metal,you got to know how to make people safe in going into mines,you got to know how to market the mines,you have to know how to guide the ships across the sex to deliver your goods and your property. South Africa is the 12th largest importer of food in the world.' A lot of the peaches you buy( ....) came from south Africa.'

A lot of the lobsters,south Africa's lobster tails... Now if you going to take over south Africa you don't know how to handle the fields, then all you will have to do is to call them back to show you how to do it.'

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU HAVE WHO CAN FIX AN ELEVATOR? What i am talking about tonight is HOW YOU LOST THE CONCEPT OF CONTROLLING A NATION!... UNTIL YOU GET BACK THE CONCEPT OF NATION FORMATION ' AND NATION MANAGEMENT,YOU GOING TO HAVE DIFFICULTY! WITH OR WITH OUR APARTHEID!

I don't question whether apartheid is brutal! I'm fighting it the same as everybody else but i know that's not the whole picture.'

YOU HAVE TO PREPARE TO CONTROL EVERY SINGLE ITEM IN A NATION!...THAT NEEDS TO WHOLE THAT NATION TOGETHER!...

How many lock smiths you got there? People have to be trained in every aspect of nation management! including sweeping of the street! sewage system,drainage system,water supplies, ALL OF THIS! THIS MAKES UP A NATION.'

Now ,The Black man i want you to look at again,because each one and in his own way ,was preparing us for nation management ,and had we'd looked at each one and accepted each one on the bases of his contribution and stop arguing about who was fighting who, we would have been close to a time where we might have been ready for the 21 century.'

Lets look at Booker t washington,w.e.b. dubois,marcus garvey, and elijah muhammad.' Why elijah muhammad? and you not a muslim, thats not even the issue! elijah muhammad like most muslim was a disgruntled baptist! and if you ever went to see one of his speeches,If you ever saw malcolm x at the mosque, and go into a baptist church, you see the response back and forth a typical baptist response.' They don't let don't let the minster stand there and preach a whole good sermon with out letting him know that you on the mark brother you'll know that's Gods word! It goes back and forth,yeah' brother its alright' make it plain now.'

Well you see the same thing happening among moslems ,they got on a moslem veneer its just a coat! but beneath its all they are the same baptist that hey left.

THEY JUST ANGRY WITH THE RELIGION OF THE OPPRESSOR THAT THEY LEFT.' THE RELIGION THAT THE OPPRESSOR ADAPTED,BUT NEVER PRACTICE!!!!! And when we go back and look at Booker t washington,look at the school at Tuskegee,he was preparing, black people to sustain themselves on a nation bases.'

You live in a brick house,own a brick yard! learn how to manage a brick yard! You wear shoes made of leather ,learn how to tam leather,learn how to take leather straight from a cow,tan it and make it into a good show.' many students walk to tuskegee they was so poor. they walked across 3 states and got to tuskegee they bar footed,and what did Booker t washington do? started a show repair shop,and later a shop showing people how to design shoes.'

Most of the black orthopedic show makers in this country were trained at Tuskegee' I'm talking about the craft that you need to run a WHOLE NATION! And you got people here with PHD's that couldn't even design a(word un audible) People with PHD's,technicians can't even make a coffin.

John the Conqueror, also known as High John the Conqueror, John de Conquer, and many other folk variants, is a folk hero from African-American folklore. He is associated with a certain root, the John the Conquer root, or John the Conqueroo, to which magical powers are ascribed in American folklore, especially among the hoodoo tradition of folk magic.The root and its magical uses are mentioned in a number of blues lyrics. Regardless of which name is used, in these contexts 'conqueror' is pronounced 'conker' or sometimes 'conqueroo'.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_the_Conqueror


Zionism Hebrew: ציונות, Tsiyonut) is a nationalist[1] Jewish political movement that, in its broadest sense, calls for the self-determination of the Jewish people and a sovereign, Jewish national homeland.[2] Since the establishment of the State of Israel, the Zionist movement continues primarily to support and advocate on behalf of the Jewish state.Zionism did not have a uniform ideology, but a plethora of ideologies: General Zionism, National-Religious Zionism, Labor Zionism, Revisionist Zionism, etc. Shimoni (1995) shows that there existed among the parties a common denominator: the claim to Eretz Israel as the national homeland of the Jews and as the legitimate focus for the national self-determination of the Jews.[3]Zionism is based on historical ties and religious traditions linking the Jewish people to the Land of Israel.[4] Almost two millennia after the Jewish diaspora, the modern Zionist movement, beginning in the late 19th century, was mainly founded by secular Jews, largely as a response by Ashkenazi Jews to antisemitism and the Anti-Jewish pogroms in the Russian Empire.[5]With its international support, Zionism is included in diaspora politics as a broader phenomenon of modern nation liberation movements.[6] Although one of several Jewish political movements offering alternative responses to assimilation and antisemitism, Zionism grew rapidly and became the dominant force among Jewish political movements.The political movement was formally established by the Austro-Hungarian journalist Theodor Herzl in the late 19th century following the publication of his book Der Judenstaat.[7] The movement sought to encourage Jewish migration to the Ottoman Palestine and was eventually successful in establishing Israel on 14 May 1948 (5 Iyyar 5708 in the Hebrew calendar), as the homeland for the Jewish people. Its proponents regard its aim as self-determination for the Jewish people.[8] The proportion of world Jewry living in Israel has steadily grown since the movement came into existence. Today roughly 40% of the world's Jews live in Israel. Nearly as many live in the United States (see American Jews).http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionism
