Beyond the Lake

And the knowledgeable one said, "Look beyond the shimmering lake to the other side and see."
"But what is to see?" asked I as my eyes looked over the water. "There I see nothing to behold."
"The land on which you live is a poison land full of demons and monsters, but beyond the lake all is clean and good," said he.
But said I, "There is nothing to see."
"That is because you see in the dark, you think you see but you are blind and your blindness is the anti-civilization."
"Having of nature’s knowledge and all you have taught, I have the faith, but still I’m blind."
"And from my son you have the knife to cut the blindfold from your eyes, so to speak, as you have seen his operating system. And do you now not know that value production is the key to leaving the badlands?"
"But how do I traverse the lake? I see no boat."
"The boat so to speak is value production, but value production in the badlands is a boat full of holes created by the hoaxers. Now go repair your boat through DTC."
For many days and nights I toiled at fixing the boat. I did this on faith, as I could not see the other side of the lake. It was a big boat with many holes and took many days and nights. But on the fifth night of value production I plugged up the seventh hole…and suddenly a pattern emerged whereby I learned to plug up all holes at once. And to my astonishment I could now see the land beyond the lake.
"With my son’s operating system you have begun to cut away at the blindfold of dishonesty that keeps you from seeing that which is good. You can now see beyond the horizon to the goodlands."
"Though I can now look yonder and see the goodlands all is still on faith for my feet still walk on the badlands."
"Your boat is full repaired, now go varnish it with value production so to speak, so you may traverse the lake and enter the Civilization of the Universe, for an unvarnished boat is a poor boat and a burden."
So I varnished my boat with many beautiful and wondrous things, and in seeing that they were good, new, and holy, many people came and looked, and in seeing that it was good and built on value production we did good trade together. And in seeing that it was good many joined me in my value productions.
"Now be aware, there are many destroyers in the badlands who are pungent with the smell of death. They carry whips and guns and chains and ride atop Komodo Dragons; when they see your boat abundant with values they will try to destroy it because it is good."
"But tell me why would they destroy the good because it is good?"
"Because their boats are full of envy as it were, and they are full of holes and not knowing the good they try to cork up the holes with the bad and the bad is mysticism."
"Yes, I have seen such boats. They carry a heavy burden of non-value that undermines all that is good. But how can such poorly maintained boats stay afloat when laden with non-values?"
"Because I have tutored you in the ways of Zon our lord and creator you can see the good and see that it is good. And because of my tutoring you can see the bad and see that it is bad. But there are still many men untutored in the ways of Zon, and as such they live in a world of illusion: they see good where there is bad, and bad were there is good. And they hold up the boat of non-values because they know not our lord Zon. And in their ignorance they support the bad, thinking that it is good. Now go build your values knowing they are good."
"For seven years, seven days, and seven hours I scheduled my days round value production, and being fourteen days in twenty-four hours many more days got done. But still as I look across the lake I see not."
"You have your values and they are good but some of your investments they are bad. For why do you still do dealings with those men of the badlands; those dragon men of whips and guns and chains?"
"How for can I not deal with men of the badlands when all men are of the badlands?"
"Look on me. Am I of the badlands?"
"No! For I see that you are Zono and that you are good."
"I have risen up, and though I walk on the badlands I am not of them."
"Where be you?"
"I be in the orchard of honesty where the trees are pregnant with the fruits of values and love and life and all things good, and know you not that this is the goodland?"
"Do you not mock me? You tell me you are in the goodlands yet I look ahead and see the goodlands yonder there."
"Remember the words I spoke to you earlier: ‘Your boat is full repaired, now go varnish it with value production, so to speak, so you may traverse the lake and enter the Civilization of the Universe, for an unvarnished boat is a poor boat and a burden.’ Do you remember those words?"
"I remember those words and for many times ten I did those works on faith."
"And your work on that will be full repaid because your work was good and clean and wholesome to behold. Look not over the lake yonder toward the horizon. For that is another illusion. But look across the real lake of your mind and you will see beyond the horizon and enter the goodlands, where you will know life eternal and love and happiness and value production and all things good."
"And behold, that was my last day in the anti-civilization."
"Now you are disconnected from all things bad, and have left the world built upon illusions. Now your blindfold is forever removed. You can see all that is good, and do you now see the illusion of the anti-civilization in all its ‘glory’?"
"Yes, I see the ‘glory’ of Kings and Queens and politicians and popes and bureaucrats and lawyers and those that help spread the ‘glory’, the men of the media. And I see that it is a false glory built on the ground-up bones and the dried-up blood of men of value production and love."
"And may I ask you now that you see, for I think you now know: Why were you blind?"
"Though my eyes did see, I myself was blind. For in the anti-civilization their are those that think they see and there are those value destroyers that live off the mysticisms of others and know that badlands are a black cave where everyone gropes in the dark. And when a man tries to light the torch of value production—not just to light up his own eyes and repair the spirit of his own dying soul, but to also restore the sight and renew the hearts of all men, including those that seem beyond redemption—when one good man lights that torch, for a while it flickers and restores the souls of men with all that is sacred and good and of value. But under the cold winds of death that blow through the cave, the light that warms the head and heart is soon blown out. For those who ride atop the Komodo Dragons with their whips and guns and chains are the spreaders of the cold winds of death. That cold wind is spread on a breeze of poisonous words."
"But look, now tell me what you see?"
"I see the flickering torches of honesty first by the tenfold, and then the hundred-fold, then behold a thousand-fold and more, until their is so much light that the darkness is blinded by the sheer luminance of all that which is good."
"Indeed, and those dragon men will continue to come; to snuff out the torches, and for each brutal attack that dims the light they will now be made accountable through the Neo-Tech ostracism matrix: for every torch that is snuffed out another ten are lit; till the dragon men will all at once be blinded by the light. And on that day there will be no more badlands and we will all live in peace in the Civilization of the Universe. Where once were value destroyers mounted on their Komodo Dragons, we will instead see Silver Knights astride white horses."
"Yes!" I said with great excitement and could see why Neo-Tech was working as opposed to other revolutions of the past. "You see, many men in the past have tried to crumble evil and tyrannical structures from the perspective of collectives such as the state or the church. But when one tries to attack such organizations one realizes that such attacks are incapable of finding a target. For, when one attacks such targets one realizes that the arrows stray in many directions. This is because when one tries to attack a collective, what one is really attacking is nothing. For, to believe in the collective idea of governments and churches is to believe in something bigger than the men that run these tyrannical organizations. But in truth there is nothing bigger. All the destructions of all tyrannical organizations throughout history can be identified as the actions of individual men. And this is why all revolutions of the past have failed. Even the revolutions of the past that seemed to work only do so temporarily. In the long run we always end up back where we started…with the same old tyranny. Neo-Tech on the other hand could better be called an evolution rather than a revolution. Indeed it is the evolution of men’s minds. And that evolution rather than trying to collapse something it can’t see i.e., the mythical church or state, is going after something it can see, and that something is individual value destroyers. But how? By driving a wedge of honesty through those organizations that separates the good from the bad…the good being value producers, the bad being value destroyers."
"Yes what you have said is correct and this is the genius of Neo-Tech: it does not go after the whole structure per se. It knows for example that although the IRS is corrupt, that there are some honest (though misguided) men and women within that system that try to do a good day’s work, and much the same can be said for most organizations, such as the FDA, the INS, and Interpol. So instead of going through the impossible attempt of trying to collapse these organizations in a bloody revolutionary overthrow where everyone gets hurt, the innocent and the guilty, there is only a piecemeal collapse of those organizations…that piecemeal being the one-by-one identification (particularly to themselves) of value destroyers vs. value producers. And once that wedge is driven through such organizations no one will have trouble identifying the good people from the bad people."
"And many of those value destroyers will be drawn to the other side of the wedge. In fact, this may be the area of greatest leverage in collapsing these institutions of destruction…for how many value destroyers will much longer be able to live with themselves while remaining on their side of the wedge? For if they do not convert then suicide might end up being their only option. Surely they must be gripped with a sense of fear and doom on knowing what’s coming. If they do not yet realize that Neo-Tech is their antichrist, then they soon will. And it also seems to me that when the wedge of honesty is driven through these organizations, unless they are so corrupt that they cannot be saved, then as that wedge is driven through it will be like dirty oil being flushed out with clean oil, and all will suddenly run efficiently. In other words they will go from badly run bureaucracies to highly efficient for-profit businesses."
"But one should realize now that this ‘wedging’ as it were is actually a microcosm of a much bigger idea: instead of just driving a wedge between value producers and value destroyers within the anti-civilization bureaucracies, a more efficient and perhaps more rapid wedging technique would perhaps be a wedge driven through the entire anti-civilization, whereby crossing over the wedge meant leaving the anti-civilization for the Civilization of the Universe. This of course means instead of trying to deal with the irrationalities of an anti-civilization one could instead, ‘let it stew in its own juices’ so to speak."
"Yes I can see that this is a much wider perspective, or if you like a bigger neo-think puzzle piece and the bigger the puzzle piece, the more mysticism can be cut away in one go. And this is why driving a wedge through the whole of the anti-civilization is a more productive option than trying to collapse individual bureaucracies such as the FDA and the IRS; it could be seen analogously as trying to cut through an oak tree with a junior hacksaw and then suddenly substituting it with a chain saw. And those wider perspectives also make life easier. How hard it is trying to cut down oak trees with hacksaws; there is so much resistance and you get a handful of blisters. Yet with almost no resistance and less effort the same job gets done in a fraction of the time with a chain saw."
"So from that it seems obvious that the quickest root to collapsing mysticism is through the widest possible integrations of reality. And that widest possible integration as identified by Frank R. Wallace is that humanlike consciousness is the unifying link that integrates together all other forces i.e., mass and energy and all other forces in between. And from that we will conclude that our universe was created by our lord Zon."
"And the biggest goal then is to take that hypothesis and move it from that hypothetical position and through to scientific fact. This will be the ultimate mysticism collapsing Neo-Tech identification. I am no scientist, but even I realize that nature behaves in readably definable ways (there are no miracles). For example, when water is diluted with orange cordial then of course that liquid refreshment will take on its own orange colored hue; it will not be one color one day and another the next. No, all being equal, that experiment will always conclude with the same result. And the static outcome of natural phenomena, within the laws of nature and without conscious interference, will also always conclude with the same results, as their natures also dictate. And as those results can be measured, they can then also be mapped. And what then would one conclude if that natural map were overlaid with a chart that identified a squiggle that seems to contradict or step outside those static natural phenomena?"
"One would have to conclude interference of the natural static outcome phenomena and that conclusion would also involve the identification not of static nature alone, but also dynamic conscious interference. For, one would realize that nothing but humanlike consciousness could create such a squiggle that steps outside the natural usually static outcomes of nature."
"Therefore I think that the businessmen need to market these overlay chart dynamics to the scientists, for the more scientists we can get racing ahead on this research the better for all of us. If we can develop the literature that not only academically but probably more importantly emotionally identifies the need for these charts, then the more scientists will respond."
