Comments on "Mommy and I are One"

It is clear that “the good mother of early childhood” is not one’s actual mother. It is either an inbuilt intuition of the Divine Mother or an idealization of our own mothers that for some reason we all possess. Modern psychology, which is committed to explaining all things in terms compatible with a fully materialist universe, can only opt for the latter. However, whichever way one takes it, it is clear that there is no equivalent “good father of early childhood” hard-wired into the fundamental workings of the human psyche. It is surprising, then, that modern patriarchal academics are so hostile to all the evidence of the universality of the Religion of the Mother in ancient times. Even if one wishes to “psychologize away” religion as a phenomenon of the human mind, the historical primacy of Our Mother God is the only thesis that makes sense.
____ I find it fascinating that the phrase that emerged from this research was "Mommy and I are one". Union with Godhead is the aim of religion. From a humanist point of view the wish to re-merge with the Mother, to negate one's own individuality and move to a point of pre-separation would seem a very strange one. On the other hand, from the Filianist perspective, which sees our separation from the Mother as the fundamental problem of human existence: the real nature of "original sin". "Mommy and I are One" from a secular humanist standpoint can only be seen as a strange, world-denying wish for the individual non-existence that preceded our birth. From the Filianic perspective "Mommy and I are one" is a concise statement of the goal of the individual and, indeed of the cosmos, when all creatures shall return to Dea "even to the last blade of grass". So it is either a psychotic death-wish, or the supreme aim of the world's first Faith. It seems to be the root desire of the human mind, so it would seem to be that at its deepest level the mind is either mad - in the sense of wishing to negate its own existence - or devoted to Our Mother God. I would tend to believe the latter.

Mommy and I are One

Research on the effectiveness of subliminal messages shows that while the popularly imagined ability of subliminals to implant ideas is of very limited effectiveness, if any, there is a certain message - only one - that does have a real effect:
A couple years ago researchers Lloyd Silverman and Joel Weinberger published a paper summarizing numerous experiments, the gist of which was that if you flashed a certain message before and after some other, more conventional training technique (e.g., antismoking therapy), you greatly enhanced the therapy's effectiveness. Now things start to get weird. The most effective message is said to be "Mommy and I are one." This is supposedly because "there are powerful unconscious wishes for a state of oneness with `the good mother of early childhood' … and gratification of these wishes can enhance adaptation," according to Silverman and Weinberger. S&W pointed out the following facts: (1) psychologically neutral messages, such as "people are walking," have no effect; (2) disturbing messages, such as "Destroy Mother," have a negative effect, at least on psychiatric patients; and (3) in areas such as the south where the usual term of affection is "Mama" rather than "Mommy," "Mommy and I are one" has no effect.
Interestingly the "key message", the true hidden desire of the human soul, has nothing to do with "sex" despite what modern western culture would lead one to expect. The real desire is to return to Mother. As the researchers say "the good mother of early childhood". Of course this part rests on the materialist assumption that our motivations are all based on this-world experiences. Looking at the matter more realistically from a spiritual perspective, we would say that the One True Desire is for THE Mother, the eternal, all-good Mother worshiped by all cultures before the artificial religions of patriarchy. We cannot help but note that after millennia of "Father God" propaganda, the message "Daddy and I are one" has no effect. A few millennia of heresy has no effect on the eternal human heart.

Ghosts and the Modern Mediaeval Village

A comment following our last post: People who see ghosts and go on being rationalist/materialists do so because their social conditioning is stronger than the evidence of their senses. Whenever there is a rupture between the two it is uncomfortable, but if we decide to go with the social side it isn’t very uncomfortable because we just ignore any evidence and talk with our fellow-believers (which is why seeing ghosts makes so little difference to the scientism faithful). As for ghosts – well I don’t find ghosts very interesting in themselves, and I don’t pretend to know what they are (I don’t believe that the ”soul” is still present in a ghost – I think it is some kind of ”outer psychic shell” that the soul has shed but that still has a kind of emotion). But what is really fascinating is the way the dogma of materialism has reduced the state of information about ghosts to a pre-mass-communication level. Ghosts do exist. Lots of people experience them daily (many hauntings are just a part of the life of a particular building) or sometimes yearly (there are such things as annual hauntings on the anniversary of some particular event). They follow laws that have been verified over numerous cases and can accurately predict some of the phenomena that will be present in new cases. There are organizations that have carefully-kept records dating back to the latter part of the century before last. But because of the mythos or ideology of Western Telluria, all this knowledge is reduced to the anecdotal level – the state of knowledge that might be found in a remote village before the advent of the printing press. It is as if while one set of people possess a detailed collection of notebooks on the habits and biology of otters, everyone else is still arguing about whether otters actually exist, and the people who actually know all about otters aren’t listened to (and rarely even admitted to exist themselves) because – well otters aren’t a respectable subject. All very odd.

The Circularity of Scientism

The following note came in a discussion at the Heartbook Clubhouse. We thought readers might find it of interest: Sushuri-chei wrote: "For example, if you see a ghost walking with her knees at floor level, or a foot above the ground, you can be sure that research will discover that that is where the floor level was at the time the revenant’s human component was alive." We know this because of the work of psychic research societies which have been gathering and collating evidence from haunted places for over a century. They work in the approved "scientific" manner diligently gathering and recording evidence and collating it. None of this counts for anything in the eyes of the scientific establishment for a variety of excuses, such as "you can't reproduce it in a laboratory" (like hurricanes and black holes, you mean?) There is actually no possible set of evidence that would be accepted as "scientific" because the subject of study itself goes against the scientistic mythos. Just as no studies that indicate the impossibility of transformist evolution (and there have been several) can be accepted. The the last line of defense against "dissident science" is an impregnable circular argument. The people carrying it out are not "real scientists" because they aren't part of an accredited university and aren't published in peer-reviewed academic journals. This argument is exactly equivalent to saying that an atheist's arguments are invalid because they haven't been approved by a committee of bishops. No accredited academic organization will - or dare - accept work that disturbs the established mythos. And if they did the opponents of the work that shows the evidence for ghosts or disproves that for evolution would quickly have another line of defense. "Oh that isn't a real University, it lost its accreditation last week". All societies are based on myths or story-pictures and feel the need to defend them. Scientism is the myth of current Telluria,

A Note on Kali Yuga

A commentator on the Amazon World History Timeline at All Girl Worlds writes the following:
The yugas or ages are concepts of Vedic knowledge. The yuga’s first introduction is in the Mahabharata. According to Vedic knowledge the duration of each yuga is: Satya-yuga 1,728,000 years, Treta-yuga 1,296,000 years, Dvapara-yuga 884,000 years, Kali-yuga 432,000 years. The Vedic knowledge states that in the Satya-yuga there is neither hate, envy, fear, nor care. That there is only one God, one Veda, one law, and one ritual. The following yugas are a decay of this golden yuga.
To which the editors reply as follows:
Thank you for your information. It is indeed correct. The Yugas are indeed found in the Vedas, while the Four Ages (Gold, Silver, Bronze and Iron) are found independently in the Hellenic tradition and the same idea is found in many other traditions throughout the world, including the Hebrew, Mayan and Inca. As you correctly state, the movement of the four Ages is one of decline and decay. As to the length of the Cycle or Manvantara, one must realize that there are cycles within, cycles, from the great Cycle of Manifestation itself (ie the "lifetime of the universe") to a single in/out breath of any given being. The cycle of most relevance to the history of the current humanity is of about 60,000 years, though certainly this is only one sub-cycle within the greater cycle you mention (which itself is a sub-cycle of yet greater cycles).

The Day of Return, not the Day of Judgement!

Hi..greetings from Malaysia...My name is Tesh recently i have read about the final judgement thingy...and i would add on... in Eastern philosophies...(all the same as Vidya, She is Omnipresent) the Final Dissolution or the "destruction of the world" (as the low intellect of patriarchs put it) is done by Maa Maha Kalika! She is the One True Mother God that absorbs All creation into Her and Begins a new creation altogether...Divine!!! ain't it? t Thanks and my humble apologies is I am wrong in any way... Jai Maha Devi Mangla Kali Saraswathy! No you are not wrong at all. We believe that the Dark Mother outbreathes the world at the dawn of time and inbreathes it at time's ending. And then there will be another cycle, another creation. As we pray:
Glory be to the Holy and Eternal One,
To the Blessed Mother
To the Divine Daughter
And to Dea beyond form
Who was before the beginning
And will be when all the worlds are ended.
While the in-breathing of the world may be seen as "destruction" from a worldly perspective, it is actually the completion of the cycle. It is also why there is no "final judgement" that involves condemning some beings. In the end all creation must return to Dea, even to the last blade of grass, and no single being can be lost.

The Meaning of "Sai" and "Janyati"

I would like to know where the words "Sai" and "Janyati" come from And what they mean. "Sai" was the name of a very prominent Hindu "Guru" who recently died, but I asume there is no connection? Greetings,
Alexandra
Janyati (singular, Janya) comes from a root meaning "born" or "produced", cf. Jataka = birth-stories (of the Buddhas) and in the Latin languages, such words as generation and genesis. Also genius meaning originally a guardian spirit - génie in French, which was also used to translate Arabic Jinni (singular of Jinn) - hence modern English genie. (Some versions of Deanic texts actually "Latinized" Janyati as "Geniae"). The term "Janya" means a spirit born or generated directly from Dea (the Absolute), and thus a secondary emanation of Deity - a spiritual "stream" that has its Source in Her. It is sometimes rendered as either "angel" or "goddess", but both can easily be misunderstood, and so Janya is preferred. The term Sai (usually prefixed to a name) can be compared to Sanskrit sri or western saint. Its usage is closer to sri than to the modern usage of saint, since it can be used of both divine beings (Janyati) and saintly humans, and sometimes even of other holy things. This is, however, in line with the older usage of saint as in "St. Cross", "St. Savior" (San Salvador) or "St. Trinity", all found in the names of old churches. Sai is usually prefixed to the name of any Janya, hence Sai Raya, Sai Sushuri etc.

Janyati (singular, Janya) comes from a root meaning "born" or "produced", cf. Jataka = birth-stories (of the Buddhas) and in the Latin languages, such words as generation and genesis. Also genius meaning originally a guardian spirit - génie in French, which was also used to translate Arabic Jinni (singular of Jinn) - hence modern English genie. (Some versions of Deanic texts actually "Latinized" Janyati as "Geniae"). The term "Janya" means a spirit born or generated directly from Dea (the Absolute), and thus a secondary emanation of Deity - a spiritual "stream" that has its Source in Her. It is sometimes rendered as either "angel" or "goddess", but both can easily be misunderstood, and so Janya is preferred. The term Sai (usually prefixed to a name) can be compared to Sanskrit sri or western saint. Its usage is closer to sri than to the modern usage of saint, since it can be used of both divine beings (Janyati) and saintly humans, and sometimes even of other holy things. This is, however, in line with the older usage of saint as in "St. Cross", "St. Savior" (San Salvador) or "St. Trinity", all found in the names of old churches. Sai is usually prefixed to the name of any Janya, hence Sai Raya, Sai Sushuri etc.

Traditional Peoples Ban Logging

In the Philippines, "Green Guerillas" (click link to go to You Tube Video, in 3 parts) assist the indigenous tribespeople in ousting the logging companies and imposing a complete ban on logging for export, with limited use for domestic purposes. They are resisting a government that has aligned itself with imperialist forces of globalization trying to outlaw tribal autonomy and attack Old Growth forests.

I cannot think of a modern struggle more in keeping with the spirit of our Germanic ancestors in their struggles against Rome to preserve their sacred groves.

This represents a tremendous moment, where warriors have aligned themselves with traditional law, to preserve the habitat and tribal autonomy of the indigenous peoples in this area. They have pro-actively begun reforestation, with a diverse variety of native vegetation, to counter the depredations of economic, imperial extraction.

The tale of imperial extraction is, unfortunately, an old story. "To feed the insatiable appetites that such greed spawned, forests, observed Seneca, had to be ravaged. The material needs of Rome's wild building schemes were met, in part, by lumberjacks felling trees ... Rome sacked the barbarian world for the resources it needed. In the process Rome transformed the conquered provinces according to its own image : a former wilderness tamed by human hands. After a century of Roman rule, the landscape of the provinces began to resemble the civilized countryside of Italy. These changes led one writer at the end of the second century A.D. to exclaim, "...There are few places now that are not accessible ; few unknown ; few, unopened to commerce. Forests have given way before the plough, cattle have driven off beasts of the jungle, and where once there was but a settler's cabin, great cities are now to be seen." (John Perlin, A Forest Journey : The Role of Wood in the Development of Civilization, W.W. Norton & Company, New York/London, 1989 , p. 115, and after first ellipsis, p. 124.) This was a fundamental reason for resisting Rome, because conquest and transformation into a province destroyed the habitat and turned the homeland into a resource extraction area, followed by a fierce pace of deforestation. We must remember that at the outset of European conquest, tribal Europe consisted of settlements nestled like islands within virtual oceans of forest. "The Romans encountered ... densely forested conditions when they expanded into western Europe ... For native Romans like Caesar, accustomed to cultivated fields and large cities, the vast wilderness of what we now know as the "Old World" set the Roman imagination ablaze much as the "New World" of North America fired up European consciousness some fifteen hundred years later. The vastness of the forest of Hercynia in Germany hypnotized many a Roman. Pliny ... humbled by its pristine quality, leading him to believe that the forest had been "untouched by the ages" and remained unchanged since the world began. Its seemingly immortal state led Pliny to believe that the Hercynian wilds "surpassed all marvels."" (Ibid, p. 108.) The forests themselves helped shield the native tribes from the onslaught of imperialism. "The forests, however, slowed the pace of subjugation. The native populations relied on the cover of the forest to increase their odds in their battles against a better armed and more organized foe trained in open-field warfare." (Ibid, p. 110.) In defending the forests, the tribal warriors were defending their people and their customs ; in defending their people and their customs, they were defending the forests.

I suggest that all heathens study this video in a spirit of solidarity, and with an eye for parallels with the many battles in which the generations surrounding Arminius engaged. In this way, connection to the larger humanity that is under the gun of empire can be fostered, transforming what might remain idle theoretical engagements with ancestral material into palpable solidarity with pagan tribespeople struggling to defend their own heaths all around the world.

This video, contemplated with a deep mind, offers the possibility for modern heathens to pierce beneath the veil of imperial warfare, and rediscover the notion of guerilla warfare aligned with traditional, indigenous law that characterized their barbarian ancestors. It is this kind of comparison with living practice on the ground that allows our source documents about our own ancestors to come alive, so that we can align ourselves with their authentic spirit, a spirit which has the power to fire up our own insurgent spirits to blaze against the darkness of empire in our times. The opportunity to learn about the kind of warfare practiced to protect grove and tribe and unique customs is powerful, allowing us to move from generic militaristic sentiments and jingoism to the more specific kinds of struggle in defense of the folk that the Gods honored, lending their forces of strength, fierceness, justice, and wisdom. The living comparison allows us to penetrate beneath the feudal scum that overlays like a film our later Scandinavian documents, to understand the pre-feudal, odal warriors who defended their beloved Mother Earth. This also allows us to shed the deplorable right-wing mentality imposed upon this traditional material by fascists of all stripes and genealogies, who sought to utilize it to justify their neo-feudalism. Herein is a chance to glimpse and get at the genuine juice.

Judgement Day

An exchange fromHeartbook: The so-called "Judgement Day": does it mean anything to Deanists/Filyanists? If not, is there an equivalent in our faith? Just some thoughts! I don't think there is any such thing as a Judgement Day in Filyanic/Deanic faith. Our actions create our werde so if we do bad things they return to us, and if we do good things they return to us. There will be a time when "all the worlds are ended", but I think that is when all beings finally return to Dea. I think that is the difference. We believe that every being, even the demons, will eventually return to the Pure Harmony of Dea. There are no beings that will be eternally lost.
