Peering Into The Muddy Waters of Disclosure
610 comments - Click for BlogBy starshipconstellation
Here is my first disclosure: I have no indisputable answers to any of the big mysteries, none whatsoever. That’s probably no surprise to anyone who has read my postings here at FSHOD. But I have been an observer, a reader of the attempts of others to seek out the answers to the great mysteries of human existence and I find myself left with far more questions than answers. My original title for this blog was going to be Disclosure, Which Disclosure? Is there only One True Disclosure and what is it exactly?
Is it the disclosure that our governments have lied about all Earthly matters?
Is it the disclosure that there is really life after death?
Is it the disclosure that life as we know is really about to end after all?
Is it the disclosure that what we thought we knew about spirituality and religion was either completely right or completely wrong? And which one?
Is it the disclosure that we were never alone in the galaxy and it suited the aliens to keep their visits mostly secret? Why? Where’s the benefit?
And so on. Without a doubt, many more of these kind of questions can be added to this short list but this will suffice for illustrative purposes. All over the Internet are websites, bookstores and libraries that house tomes that purport to address these issues. And maybe some of them do. The problem I’ve developed over the last few months is that there seems to be the same polarisation that has infected the rest of modern life in the whole notion of Disclosure. Agendas are pushed, knives are drawn against the various messengers, others are lauded. We sometimes call them ‘mystery merchants”, what purpose are they serving? Are they bringing the clarity we humans are going to need if we are to survive not only as a physical species but also as spiritual beings? Why are so many games being played with Disclosure? Why not just come out and say it?
Again, which Disclosure?
We have the senses we use to see, hear and speak about the information our minds process about the world around us. I believe there is much more than what we see with these forms of data reception, and sometimes I wonder how many, myself included limit ourselves to only seeing this way? Is it our personal experiences alone that provide a barometer for how we see Disclosure and the Truth About Anything?
I admit that I have read things that really set off every red alert light that warns me that someone is trying to lie to me and profit from it at my expense. There are people who want me to live in fear and I should buy their book, their video to scare myself even more and prepare for this coming doom that never arrives and Doomsday is rescheduled. There are people who want me believe they have the Big Proof but they keep stringing me along with the infamous bread crumbs. You listen to them on the radio, read their websites and maybe even their books which promise something bigger in the next volume that never quite comes because you have to read the next book. I’m not just picking on Richard Hoagland here, I think some of his core ideas still have merit, but he is not the only guilty party in this muddy pool of water. There are so many others, this blog would go on forever trying to recount them all. I actually feel a certain amount of weariness and disillusionment which much of what I read and for all the things that have been proven to me on some level, there is much that I find dubious.
What worries me is that in sorting through all the alarms, I miss the truth when it is right there in front of me. In all the bickering all over the Internet about alternative versus mainstream thought, all the bickering about the material world versus the spiritual world the most critical information we need is lost in the noise.
I believe we live in a multi-verse and that as such, there is no one Disclosure, but many. It would seem that within reason, there should be room for all these trains of thought. Many fantastic ideas are put out there...why are some given credence and others dismissed summarily? Aren’t they all equally fantastic? As a mild example, why is it okay to believe in ruins on Mars or Jesus or alien visitations but not okay to believe in the paranormal? Is it the burden of proof required? I have found that the scientific method has some catching up to do. Speaking only for myself at the usual risk of ridicule, I have had more proof for life after death than of Martian ruins and I believe the ruins exist.
The world has so many layers. Incredibly ancient and lost civilisations whose stories much of the world is still blind to, life outside our tiny planet, the visitors to that planet, the journey of our souls after we shed our bodies, the chemtrails in the skies, the machinations of unseen hands in our daily lives. I used to scoff at chemtrails until I saw them being done. I used to doubt weather modification until I saw the Katrina radar and witnessed the hurricane go around New Orleans. Or the days I look up in the sky and see the boomerang clouds or the cloud with the big precise square punched in the middle. I didn’t scoff at UFO’s because I ended up seeing them with my own eyes as well, just as I at different times have seen the briefest glimpses of those known to me and of strangers who no longer live the corporeal life.
Are these not disclosures? The fact we were awake enough to see any one of these things at all? I wonder sometimes in our most ardent desire to get The Powers That Be to admit to these things they’ve always known and to sort through the disinformation out there, that we have already been disclosed the Truth...and just missed it. That in the effort to decode it all, we made it harder than it is really supposed to be.
Naturally, I could be wrong. But I can’t help wondering…..
