---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The commonly accepted ideal of reality, promoted in western culture as the
norm, is both artificial and confusing. Artificial in so far as it requires
policing and high pressure promotion to enforce it. Were it natural people
would naturally coalesce to it. It's confusion is apparent it's many
contradictions.

Beyond this ideal, there exists an unofficial reality, (a black market, if
you will). A much closer reflection of the truth of human reality. In its
scope and power it is far greater than we commonly imagine. Some would
argue, it controls and promotes the official (artificial) reality we all
are familiar with. This includes government administration, police and
armed forces, and a significant percentage of the business community. The
media especially. It has a long history, knowing no moral bounds or
scruples, and reflects man at his worst.

The common man in the streets, shuns enlightenment to this reality, for
fear of a realization of his vulnerability. Yet he knows this attitude of
mind affords him no real protection. He nonetheless, watches as his
freedoms are continually encroached upon, his labor and future robbed from
before his eyes. Lethargy sets in, sapping his will to do anything about
it, whilst he waits hoping for better times. He comforts himself by
ignoring it, thinking he has escaped with his life.

Close analysis reveals his life to have degenerated to a continual round of
satisfying the lusts of his body. A beggarly existence regardless of how
comfortable the surroundings. Soon the natural course of illness and death
takes their toll. That is, if the unnatural doesn't get there first. In a
violent society who knows when death comes knocking at your door.

One wonders which of these realities is the more deadly. The official has
far greater numbers of the population adhering to it. This allows both it
and the unofficial reality to continue. The unofficial has a growing but
much smaller number of hardened adherents, but is extremely profitable (at
the expense of the official). This is what allows it to continue. Certainly
both sides are accountable. The official, for it's downright crookedness,
lying, cheating, stealing and killing. The unofficial for its cowardice and
impotence.

In truth, what we are witnessing is a magnification of what is happening
within all of us, to a greater or lesser degree. In our conscious mind, is
projected an ideal of reality, to which we strive to materialize. Often we
fail. Our failures we hide, disregard, cover-up, for fear they will set us
back. These improperly addressed failures accumulate in the unconscious
mind ravaging and draining us of our will and energy moral fortitude. This
forms the basis of the unofficial reality. Some continue to strive, others
give up all together, getting what they can through whatever means
available. This latter forms the driving force of the unofficial reality,
giving it it's shape and direction. In any event, how one deals with this
inner struggle, contributes to the shaping of society as a whole.

In the throws of it all, few stop to question the legitimacy of the ideal,
the fundamental cause of this situation in the first place. Evidently once
it has been established it takes on a life of it's own, bringing all things
into conformity to itself, regardless of the consequences. Certainly it is
shaped and projected by man. But is this really our role? Has man bitten
off more then he can chew? Are we capable of projecting what our destiny
should be? We are not in control of our birth or death, how then can we
successfully determine the shape of the future, especially for an entire
planet of beings.

As a believer in God, my question must be, What is the will of God for me
and for the world I live in? This is clearly answered in the judgment of
the book of Revelation. It reveals the substance of the new covenant
between God and man. It is what the Seven Seals are about, and reflects the
content of conscience. This is not some distant and abstract theory having
no basis in human reality. God is very real. His concern for humanity has
tangible expression. Accessing the truth of this has been made difficult
because of many years of theoretical religious dogma. This has given shape
to the mindset of thought perceptions held by masses of the people, forming
their ideal of reality. I hold popular religion highly accountable for
this. Nevertheless, it's effect has been to imprison the living and true
voice of conscience (in the past given expression to through the prophets
and called of God) by replacing it with a counterfeit, arising out of human
sensory based theorizing feelings. Founded on the false belief that humans
alone shape their reality. History does not teach this. The history of the
Israelite people bear clear witness to this. This belief is certainly
contrary to the teachings of scriptures. For purposes of emphasis. The
Spirit (in us as conscience) is imprisoned for the lack of the needed
thought perceptions in the conscious mind giving expression to it. It's
house if you will! The scriptures contain these thought perceptions. It is
through our word we communicate our thoughts (given rise to by our spirit).
The scriptures being the Word of God, houses the spirit and thought
perceptions of God. At birth we partake of the spirit of God (expressed as
the life of the body) but our conscious mind needs to be fitted with the
thought form of that spirit.

Back to our main theme. I believe we have reached a place in time where
this unofficial reality now seeks to come out of it's closet establishing
itself as official reality. In so doing, it places the official, but
artificial ideal of reality in the closet. What's more, were these
processes purely of human control, it would have the power to do so. But
there is the true ideal of reality, distinct from the official and
unofficial. It will be established, being of God.
