Notes by TK

[Kyroot reading to :08.]
There is no such thing as a conditional revolution. Evolution is meaningless in the context of a single lifetime. Revolution inside evolution is required –i.e., within the parameters of an individual’s time and place. More, such effort is apparently useless; doesn’t make you rich and famous.

D-influence is mechanical and slow; dull witted, sloganeering; solemn, sober. C-influence is more process-like vs. thing-like; quicker, complex, adaptive and insouciant. Fear is only the predictable expectation/anticipation of ad-hoc D, and this is ultimately realized by Real Revolutionists. Real Revolutionists then learn to ignore expectations of the future by denying thoughts of the past. “Nothing is certain except the past” …and memory’s effect on those who believe in and depend on it. Memory is impossible without the Yellow Circuit; impossible to depend and believe in the past without Yellow Circuit.

All memory activity is D related; slow, mechanical. The Few must realize that it can be ignored. “The past is the father of all names”. A condemnation of anonymous information: anonymous sources (faceless, nameless) seek to influence while escaping responsibility. This is the decrying of Life by ordinary consciousness. Life is the ultimate anonymous tipster. Life’s face is so large it is invisible to man. This is a process of Life’s effort thru This Thing; anonymity is precisely the attraction and power of This Thing for The Few, but the bane of the ordinary.

There is a human syndrome/belief that by verbally minimizing a reality/problem it will actually affect the reality itself. Such verbal minimizing is always done with fear and is ponderous and mechanical. It can be done willfully, profitably by The Few but they must do it deftly, swiftly, fearlessly to themselves.

The Real Revolutionist would always have at hand an immediate remedy for attacks of conscience: bad memory; a willfully bad memory. Conscience is not a boon to a Real Revolutionist; it’s a malady.

It cannot be expected of you now to do This Thing 100% of the time. But it can be expected that when you remember to apply yourself to This Thing, it is 100% effort then; that you devote your full attention to the effort.

The ordinary seek refuge in the mountains and forests, while the Few need never leave home.

***

Most forms of ordinary, mortal love resemble domination without violence.

***

After a somewhat slow and uncertain start, humbug and balderdash are, however, gaining fast.

***

Again, you ask, “What is all of this?” …again, you ask? Well, try this one on: To do that which is extraordinary and ofttimes extraordinarily useless.

***

A “real person” (that is, my-kinda-anthropoid) would be one who could keep a diary and never use the word “I.”

***

A routine optimist is one who seems to believe that the obvious and inevitable may be at least postponed.

***

Poets have sung thusly: “I have seen the nature of good and of beauty, and joy engulfs my mind.” Prophets have said, “I have seen the face of evil and of pain and sadness floods my soul,” but where is one who has given any notice to the four-dimensional frame that holds such pictures?

***

The ordinarily religious speak often of the “enemy” and curse him, while the Few mention him rarely and then with deep, clinical affection.

***

The frustration of being an ordinary philosopher is that one’s voice never seems to carry above the noise of the stomach and the smell of rust on neurons.

***

The so-called “grace of the gods” is not man’s greatest comfort — that is the job of habit.

***

It has been said that “Our life is what our thoughts have made it.” …O.K., but who made “our thoughts”? …O.K., who made us? …O.K., who made “our life”? (And all you can say is, “What time does the next bus REALLY leave?”)

***

All gods look pretty ominous right up to the last minute.

***

It has been said that “Nothing is evil that is in accord with nature,” but what keen eye can truly perceive the UN-natural (or worse yet, its source)?

***

You shall know the truth (and it will be charged to your account at some unexpected and inopportune future date).

***

Some banal prophet once said, “The existence of the devil can only be doubted by those under the influence of the devil.” (Guess the ole three legged race trips you up about there, eh what.)

***

It has been said that no one can tell the whole, complete truth about themself, no matter how sincere they are and no matter how long they take, and I say, Who Cares — and Thank God!

***

The many seek their own conclusions while the Few pursue an ongoing merger.

***

Men who deny the gods on the basis of their failure to see “common sense” governing human life do not understand that common sense would be the least of a god’s attributes.

***

Some have said, “You must suffer to be noble.” …(And that seems to explain it, does it?)

***

If you are not ultimately driven by ideas “original” to you, your middle name is still “many.”

***

I once read where a human wrote, “If man is truly a reflection of god, then god must be a coward, an idiot and a liar,” and he was 1/3 correct, by Jimminy.

***

The many seem to dream of returning to a nonexistent past while the Few strive to go forward into nowhere.

***

The Real Revolutionist would be he who would not bow even to the laws of mathematics.

***

Cow shit is truth to a corn field, rotted meat enlightenment to a possum.

***

It if’s not your habit, it’s barbarous.

***

Much of mortal talk is an unrecognized form of adjusting oneself to the inevitable.

***

A would-be social critic once stated, “All aggression is taught,” but he failed to identify the extra-universal college from whence originates such instruction.

***

If reality and the truth had but one face, man would be the genus “genius”; if it had but two faces, we would all go free; but that’s as it now stands — your passes are only good for Tuesday and that’s the very day the House of Mirrors is closed.

***

The many label as “miraculous” that which they don’t understand, while the Few do just the opposite.

***

One possible slogan for the Real Revolutionist would be: “Moderation is ultimately insufficient.” (The words could be also applied to the ordinary if they were then understood to mean that “moderation” does not offer the necessary spark of motivational guilt.)
