Karma

Karma

This world is in desperate need of a consciousness shock, i.e. people need to be stopped dead in their tracks and shaken. Forget about passively sitting down with people and talking out everything, people need to physically be shaken and conditioned to understand that they can’t keep doing what they’re doing. People need to awake themselves from this dream they’re in. “Wake up Sleeping Beauty! Life is not a fairy tale. It doesn’t always end Happily Ever After.”

When headlines in the news are consistently reports of government scandals, conspiracies, corruptions, and greed, it really makes you wonder how much hope there really is in people. When all these big businesses profit off of others misfortune and cash in on billions of dollars in selfish profit, that’s when it really hits you; people are blissfully ignorant, stupidly stupid, and downright evil.

The people in power, the Elitists, have cashed in their morals, values, and ethics for an expensive suit, fast car, and big house far away from the people they shit on. Even when these politicians are caught red-handed, they still get away with it and are able to buy their way out. Its incredible how corrupt and malfunctioned our government and society really is.

It’s not just their fault. They’re taking advantage of the system because they feel that its people will do nothing. And so far we’ve done nothing. It’s the people that are to blame too. What ever happened to the Revolution, huh? When Timothy Leary said to think for yourself and question authority, he meant it. He understood that authority is set into place to maintain conformity. It’s foundation is filled with cracks and is designed to make you slip and fall. They do not love you nor do they care about you. The government only cares about protecting its own skin and furthering its own will and desires. This all sounds so pessimistic and sad but its the truth. Just look around you and just see how enslaved into the system we’ve all become. There is hope though...

The government, laws, bills, amendments, Bill of Rights; it’s all one big perceptive illusion. Everything you think is right or wrong, legal or illegal, it’s all from the eyes and signatures of rich old while men throughout history who’ve decided how people should live their lives. Okay, of course in order to maintain a functioning society, it must have rules and regulations, but when it gets to a point when it tells you how to eat and what you can put into your body, that just becomes absolute control. People don’t see what they’re not looking for, so when they learn that stuff like this is going on they should be alerted to act in a form of rebellion against the tyranny. “When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.”- Thomas Jefferson.

There is a way out of this whole mess though. The answer only requires a complete attitude change. Its more of adopting a new concept, an idea, a refreshing different outlook on life. It’s called Karma. The idea is much more than just helping others and expecting a favor in return. That’s actually backwards thinking. Karma is all about helping others and not expecting anything back. Karma is about making enlightening others to embrace the small things in life and to not over-think everything. Life is not a theater stage and it does not require all these dramatic scene parts. When troubles get you down you need to remember that its just one day, and in the end it’ll all work out. Things have a tendency to want to work out for the better, it just takes a little bit of work to put things into orbit.

I believe that Karma can save this world from itself because if everybody could just embrace the idea that all these materialistic objects and concepts in our life are not real, then maybe then we could focus on the real problems at hand. Instead of spending billions of dollars buying nuclear weapons and bombs to murder our enemies, let’s instead use that money to clothe, feed, and house every human being on this planet. Instead of spending billions of dollars on a failed drug-war effort that has locked up millions of good-hearted people, let’s instead use that money to try and actually rehabilitate the murderers, rapists, and sickos in jail. Merely locking away an individual for 30 years just not do any justice to anybody. Time is not a cohesion that’ll hold the pieces together.

Once people realize that life is something meant to be enjoyed, then I think people will begin to cool their jets and just let things be. Everyone can free themselves from their grudges and float on high waters again. We can all be one again and be proud of our Superiority status as head honcho in the Animal Kingdom. But if we continue this lifestyle that we current possess, we’ll reach our threshold and plummet down this bottle-necked tube towards Extinction.

“Time to bring it down again. Don’t just call me a pessimist, try and read between the lines! I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t welcome any changes my friends. I wanna see it come down, come down,flush it down, suck it down.”~~~~~~~~Œnima, Tool
