In the Middle Ages it went by another name; it was called possession.” We, as “modern” people, to the extent we are acting out our unconscious, are as much “plagued” by possession as people in the Middle Ages.
Jung comments, “in all cases identification with the unconscious [complex] brings a weakening of consciousness, and herein lies the danger. You do not ‘make’ an identification, you do not ‘identify yourself,’ but you experience your identity with the archetype in an unconscious way and so are possessed by it.” Anything we are unconsciously identical with we are possessed by, and hence, compelled to act out in our life without understanding why. Though we have dismissed the idea of demons on the altar of our rationality, to quote Jung, “…man himself has taken over their role without knowing it and does the devilish work of destruction with far more effective tools than the spirits did. In the olden days men were brutal, now they are dehumanized and possessed to a degree that even the blackest Middle Ages did not know.” More than ever, current-day humanity is certainly acting as if it’s a species possessed. Eminent theologian and 9/11 Truth Activist David Ray Griffin writes, “It does seem that we are possessed by some demonic power that is leading us, trancelike, into self-destruction.”

208. Elena - November 10, 2009 [Edit]These are the realities that people both outside and inside Cults are avoiding. We do not call “evil” abandoning our children and parents and other human beings but children, parents, young people and old people were abandoned and continue to be abandoned in the Fellowship cult.
Are we perhaps afraid of the fact that we are the result of generations of “evil” that had to abandon our lives to work for others?, other divas? The absurd “diva” show happens in cults as much as in society. Cults simply mirror what is already happening at large in society.

To what extent growing up watching television has numbed us to reality. How many have not suffered in front of a film and had to learn not to cry because “it’s only a film”? The crux of every story is the suffering and the release from suffering but after watching the amount of television that the average westerner has watched today, have we numbed our selves to the reality of suffering and look at it and each other like another television program that can be turned off and on?
What made us indifferent to each other and every member that passed through the Fellowship Cult like actors in somebody else’s play?
What made it so easy for us to mutilate our lives like scenarios and characters that we could do without? In my case it is evident that I had myriad reasons to look for a community that at least in principle tried to live a more conscious life. What are cult members running away from or towards? Doesn’t almost everyone in our society have something they could run away from? Why did we manage to do it for so long in search of a consciousness of our own without anyone else included for it is clear in the Fellowship cult that we were not willing to include each other; that we were willing to discard anyone who didn’t grab on to it with desperation and worked unconditionally and allowed for every form of rape and self denial. How much less willing were those that burnt themselves in the vineyard to give their lives up than the boys in Robert’s bed? Those who gave all their money, all their time? All their love? Many didn’t give too much and made of the cult a Sunday mass, but those who committed fully and lived that commitment out in Oregon House, that is, those who are still inside and grabbing on to it like a lifesaving device, what have they not allowed the Fellowship to take away from them and call that “consciousness”?
Was it too much television that made us so indifferent to what was going on right in front of our eyes? And how did we manage to mutilate our lives so successfully?
It is clear in the System that we were supposed to remain IN life, why didn’t we even question it when we separated our selves from it? Some will say that they did, that they continued to have jobs in society but was that life? Or was it the necessary “job” to pay for the “life” we were supposed to be living? And then was it a life we were supposed to be living or a School in which we were supposed to be learning?
How did we, do we, those still inside, allow for the life and the School and the cult to get all mixed up?
The Fourth Way is supposed to happen in life. It was OUR lives what we were supposed to be working with in a CONSCIOUS SCHOOL. What allowed us to give up our lives for the gold alchemy rape factory? Was it because all factories and businesses in which people have been working for a few generations now, are rape factories? Is France’s telecom company in which suicide has become the norm, any less disfiguring than cults? Is there a serious difference between going to an absolutely uncreative job repeating the same movement day in and out for a minimum salary any different to the inverse process of leaving your life out of the cult to support a narcissistic sociopath addicted to raping boys from every nation? I mean, isn’t life raped out of cults as much as of factories? Don’t we in cults simply invert the process and give up our lives before we enter so that we no longer have to deal with something so “sticky”?

And how did we actually manage to accomplish the ideal state of Western Materialistic idiosyncracy? Was it possible to just hang our lives outside the pile, throw it out in the lake or run it over with our cars before we drove into the palm gardens of every member who had been skimmed? Was the mutilation a methodical act of separating ourselves physically from our families, mothers, fathers and children until we had abandoned each one of them with all our heart? And then inside, when we abandoned wives and husbands, did it become easier with that much practice? Were we able to realize the ideas of the Fourth Way as stated by Mr. Ouspensky, Gurdjieff and Collin and held our families with more integrity, with more consciousness Daily Cardiac, if you don’t like the word integrity, and at the same time separated ourselves from judgement and negativity and consciously embraced our lives with the myriad difficulties they offered? Or did we run into the cult and separated our selves from the pangs of our difficulties trying to convince our selves that we were worthy of a conscious being’s love and life because we were able to mutilate every aspect of our previous lives and affirm it with our gold alchemy uniforms that were perfected each day with new acquisitions for our wardrobe?
For it didn’t matter whether we were conscious or not as long as we looked good, did it?
For it didn’t matter whether we were conscious or not as long as we looked good, did it?
We mutilated our lives and separated from the pain of doing so with indifference. “Indifference”, that very particular negative emotion that we were supposed to be separating from, became our most active tool to hold the structure of the cult’s status quo.
There is no coincidence in the fact that I have exposed every aspect of my life on these blogs, recovering it. I too allowed for too much of it to be mutilated in the cult but I have been recovering it and I am at the other side of the river in that process. It’s taken less than three years but it was worth every minute of it, including the banning.
