2012.
Popular mythopoetic understandings (& misunderstandings)
of this year’s Significance
Are floating out there in zeitgiesit noosphere.
Some of are sillyhead-readings of south american bloodlust magical thinking mayans who had eyes to chart the stars, but that, when u study primitive cultures, is no great accomplishment. Mesopotamians did it. then they came to america, some say. others say no.
They were made, these predicti0ns,
to make what they prognosticate true.
The doomsayers want doom.
That Freudian deathwish …
that giving up of the Ego’s constant need for total control
Deferring to imaginary visions of destruction & annihilation, especially o f ego, whose fondest desire is never anything but suicide.
And the whole world too,w hile ego is at it.
Suicidal ideations inculcated...for ego=whole world… But ego is in
Painful self doubt……..that is its motive, to destroy itself.
Rational people, solidly constructed funloving egos,
writers of grammatical prose,
cling to the myth of historical progress and say,
‘The evidence is lacking, it is intellectually controvertible, this mythology…’
Then they snicker at it, this sense of ending and doom.
they are not to be fucked with, for their rationality is carniverous.
never argue with someone who knows what is what. whom you
trust to tell you the facts and the interpretation of the facts, please.
A lot of people simply want
the end of the world,as a deterministic cosmic force,
Which forgives them from doing acts of incomplete ignorant good will,
for they no longer know what ‘good will’ could mean,
or how it could ‘PROACTIVELY’ bring sanity and..let’s face it..more of the same..more sanity...good will is the only answer for these types.
good will being a situational phenomenon, they direct situations
to their self definitions. all situations are of rational upsurge.
a reasonable mind can make a fortress of your soul.
and this is ...somewhat seductive..

scenario:
he: what do you think, 2012 the end?
he: if so, i am ready.
he: me too. did it all, most of it.
he:even the bucket list?
he: some, not all, of it.
..........................................
History rumbling on… Playing us as contingent angelic flesh puppets doing their best. this is not an option to believe. we never do our best, only what is good. if we are well educated. best is for the socially conscious. those who follow the trends.
The best suffering, the poor souls in extreme suffering, we gotta consider.

we gotta feel the pain of those who are not interested in metaphysics.
In socio-political economic ideology, they are noted for their boring prose.
Divorced from mythological forces.
Which are paramount. At Zeitgeist’s core….
the core is not anything external or societal. it is intensely personal
the most individual spark of genius,
which encroaches upon genius.
…………………………………………………………………..
Since when was January 2d a holiday, anyway? I went out into a chilly wind and found all main st shops and the library closed.”No beer today! “ said my convenient store proprietor. I had a taste for some, but was out of iuck.
I wandered a ghostly presence.
I am getting used to this persona.
I hope it leads me to glory.
Indifference is not not caring, it is acceptance, with the possibility of nurturing beauty.

2012 will the most important yeAr in American history. Also metayphysical history.
A year from now , at the risisng 2013, wil be all the psychological and spitritual energy
Integrated, finally, in a rational mystical paradigm.
So I prophesy.

-geist: spirit of the age
&
-zumder: time fuse
that's it! time fuse;
At the core, no matter the age/spirit,
there is the imperative of anti-clock
yearning absolute enlightenment: the easiest way.
they will check their watches & wonder why so
much time spent engaging in experience
of timefuse. they will need constant
beauty bombarding them, to
recondition clock reality.
Today's a holiday because the stores and such are always closed on Sunday, so if they didn't get today then they wouldn't get a holiday.
today is monday!
where are u?
what's to get about this ranting?
of course people want the end, the very end...
some know there will be something after the end.
the end of what?
the end of the world as it is.
take it literally: a planet dies.
take it poetically: the old kingdom is overthrown.
then we get "Integrated, finally, in a rational mystical paradigm."
stores ought not to be closed on jan 2d. it is not a damn holiday.
It's distracting.
Perhaps in that it is 01/02/12 some sort of cosmic thing got into the store clerk's thinking James. It's nothing personal of course and a poor choice for not selling beer as so many are still stuck indoors on their couches.
Lots of lost lucre for the poor clerk.
Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden
Surely must have shook that thing
something or another to say...
someday
it will become clear to me , but beauty w/o beer is not
beauty to me. call me situationally conditionally isolated
in an addiction, if you wish. i am ambivalent.
but beauty is important. and intoxication is holy.
you will never strip me of this idea even if u are totally
rational.
The bottle caps did.
well, a man of hirsute satori gotta be undistractable.
bottle caps are a fact of life, unfortunately.
what they do is a holy thing:
keep the liquid fresh.
yes?
you are well educated so you know that Armageddon prophesies have been around every now and then;it is not the first time.
It usually occurs at the change of a century.This time it might have come a bit late,since we have completed the 11th year already turning to the 12th.
Nobody knows except the seers,and they don't speak up openly.I have to correct myself.There is one on OS.He speaks up.
Mystic is one reality,rationality another.
You seem to be at home in either one.
Please chek on my blog and read
Hermann Hesse:"Steps" (Stufen)
but...in-difference..no difference...
the "difference' is the subject object dichotomy.
we mustnt think of others as objects. in(no)-difference to me
means the i thou thing, the union of subjects in an indifference.
i hope i have explained it to utmost perplexity.
i am at home in both camps, and hope to reconcile them someday.
i shall check out yer hesse.
Armageddon is here!!! Right where it always was, in Israel.
We are amassing large armies at the spot where the world is prophecized to end. I don't believe in that, but that doesn't matter. There are enough people who do that my thoughts are irrelevant.
Something bad is going to happen this year. But, something good will as well...and so on.
He is trying to stir it up
