Citadelization
To organize all humanity mentally and to harmonize our hearts is a collection of power which belongs in no small subset of humanity, therefore each human, like each cell in our body must be sovereign over itself. Know thyself…and only then can an individual willingly surrender to a greater organization of humanity in a win-win relationship. Citadelization is the counterbalancing force which will prevent any potential ‘tower of Babel’ collapse. Each brick each of us places on the tower of ‘progress’ is our own, not our own life force co-opted by any outside leader, bully or guru.
Several of the latest hot topics on the internet have caught my attention. That is their mission and purpose. To gather attention and insert a self reinforcing program. Rather like the toxoplasma that can only reproduce in the gut of cats infects mice and causes them to not only lose their innate fear of cats but to be mildly attracted to their scent. Easy prey for further reproduction. See the elegant mouse trap built from this change in the prey’s mind?
One of the great dividing lines between organisms and organizations who are thriving and those who are dying centers is the quality of interaction between cells and between humans. Averaging down to ensure equality versus the multiplying of inspiring action is rampant in America from “everyone gets a trophy” to the latest craze of corporate Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. There has been enough time to see where these experiments in sociology lead and today we will discuss how to restore a thriving interaction of necessary diversity.
Every positive attribute of the human three body system has a negative counterpart. Thoughts can kill. Emotions can suffocate. Cells can adopt their own alien agenda. This fact is exactly why life has designed a three body system of independent powers with built in routine maintenance and emergency powers. Life force can be withdrawn from thoughts and emotions every night and every cell has it own embedded program of apoptosis, or suicide.
Being a former naval officer and open ocean sailor, I am intimately familiar with the concept of buoyancy and the reality of sinking. Any openings to the sea, whether caused by a torpedo, a rocky shoal or a ruptured hose connected to a thru hull fitting below the waterline is a matter of life and death. There is no pulling over to the side of the road and waiting for help. So bilge pumps and damage control plugs are essential equipment to go to sea.
I wrote my last post, titled Divided Consciousness, about the ability to discern and judge based upon a mental division. At our mental core is an ever present question of yes or no repeated countless times each day. At an emotional, heart level hopefully we live in a state of yes to our surroundings and our world with our no being reserved for drama, trauma and disturbances. Even as infants we learned the ability to concentrate our no into powerful emotional outbursts in hopes of a restoration of yes.
Now that the initial hype and fear-mongering around AI has somewhat abated, we can perhaps objectively discuss the why and the consequences of birthing a rival intelligence to man. In the first two posts on this subject, we dealt with the initial defensive responses of the body and heart in their attempt to maintain living homeostasis within our three-body system from AI’s introduction. Today we will revisit the fact that our mind also uses citadelization to maintain its own sovereignty because AI will have the most destabilizing effects upon our mental center.
For several of my first decades of mature life, post-puberty, I thought my center of attention was my brain. I did not give much thought to the fact that during orgasm or intense emotional outburst my center of attention seemed to disappear from my brain. As soon as the “emergency” was over, my center of attention would quickly reappear and make comment on what just happened or some other distracting commentary.
A properly formed citadel is a container. Of what? It could be a single cell, a collection of similar cells into an organ, a single human or a group of humans. The real question is “who is on the inside and what is on the outside?” implying a qualification or a standard for a purpose. Today, we will define the fundamental parameters of citadelization. Namely, win-win cooperation for a purpose.
One hundred years ago there were only two billion humans alive on Earth. Which means at the current eight billion we have quadrupled our human population. From two billion to eight billion in the blink of an eye of human evolution. And all without any stable organizing force, save what I have named citadelization.
Despite the “best laid plans of mice and men” cosmic timing and cosmic forces are the arbiter of the course of history soon to be written. Yes, humans who write the history of the approaching era will attribute the course of events to certain humans while the true forces of Nature we explore three times a week as bioadministration, cosmonomics and citadelization are yet to receive their due. Today we will talk about the overwhelming impulse currently arising from within every human paying attention to their loins described in the bible as “head(ing) for the hills”.
I recently made the case for bioadministration as the most human and fair way to organize humanity to bring harmony to our fundamentally unstable system. Today we will look at the three body problem from a cost-benefit analysis to the individual cell and concentrations of similar cells called organs. After all, a human is a collection of trillions of individual cells who have assembled into a single organization. Was that an evolutionary mistake?
The ethos of reconciliation as demonstrated by Christ has gone from foundational to western civilization to a cognitive dissonance allowing for both Christ and Machiavelli to live within separate compartments within the same mind. Sleepy, content small towns whose main structure was the local church have grown into ever more complex, diverse and yet interdependent mega cities to meet every taste and every need. From childhood innocence to young adult adventure seeking, we finally are confronted with the an unsustainable dalliance usually coupled with an existential crisis. All life follows the same path.
Modern science probing the quantum realm, morphogenic fields, financial panics and mob behaviors all acknowledge there is an unseen web of unconscious communication between humans that is non-verbal. Fringe science studies remote viewing, ESP and techniques of divination which point to the human ability to transcend space and time tapping into non-local information. So too do modern medicine and psychology acknowledge the ability to infect other humans with microscopic agents of disease and energetic mind viruses. One might say all humans are haunted. By design.
I watched a micro doc video about BlackRock from the point of view of a “conspiracy theorist” decrying its behemoth status and state of power over the entire financial system. And the reach of their Aladdin AI system is arguably, with north of $66 trillion under management, the center of gravity of the financial world. With their push into ESG scoring determining access to capital, BlackRock is entering a new realm of attempting to force an ethics, their ethics, upon the capitalist system. When a single organ is so influential that its error or demise threatens the entire organism then there it is a juicy target to see where, how and why they fit into bioadministration, cosmonomics and citadelization. A case study.
If we look at nature on Earth as an ongoing experiment with many trials and many failed attempts, then we might learn something important about being human and what the cosmos needs of us. Cosmonomics and bioadministration go a long way in theorizing our human purpose for the cosmos from the navigational fix of the intersection of instinct, history, logic and revelation. Can we add another line of reasoning tied to the observation of nature’s experimentation with life on Earth and the apparent desire to keep humanity citadelized?
Every distinct organism or organization, no matter the size, has the characteristics of a citadel with both functions of a command center and a designated exterior boundary. This is easy to see with a living cell’s nucleus and cell wall. But also our solar system with a radius of approximately 16 light hours also has the obvious command center we see and know as the sun. And the Voyager 2 space probe showed a cliff like drop in the sun’s plasma discharge, called the solar wind, at the outer edge of the sun’s citadel.
I have referred many times to the Devil archetype by the latin name of El Diablo, The Divider. This force, personal and impersonal, is intimately connected to citadelization. To become distinct, defended and capable of action is heavily assisted by evolutionary pressures associated with pain, hunger, fear, betrayal, to name but a few. Today, we will honor and embrace those moments when even the Devil gets tired of feeding on your weak, tasteless soul and slaps you across the face.
Today’s blogpost in citadelization will attempt to describe the little understood relationship between humanity and our host, Earth. Namely anti-gravity and specifically how anti-gravity can keep each human in a strong defensive position, otherwise know as a citadel.
When we think about joining our individual life force with other humans for work, for play, for growth or for security, there is a decision matrix of specialization versus simplicity that effects the capability and resilience of our group. Our world was just forced through a major test case for complex globalization during the COVID pandemic. It would be good to explore this distasteful test case.
When thinking about the three core concepts upon which the BCC Institute was founded, citadelization was the last to be established after bioadministration and then cosmonomics. My progression of understanding was reverse to that of evolution. In Nature, it was the body that came together first and then specializing and birthing the organs of necessity for complex life. Namely, the heart and mind. Either from above or below, from inside or from outside, if we explore any living system completely we find there is the tripartite structure of mind, heart and body.
If we look objectively at our mind, its pro and cons, we see as complex, as dangerous and as satisfying a relationship as can be found in all of life. The Chinese for thousands of years have named the mind a “wild horse” to describe both its power to move and its difficulty to tame. One could make the case that any and all “alien” invasions would penetrate the mind to conquer humanity and our mind might mistakenly, but easily ally with off-world ideology and technology while abandoning its own heart and body. Equally, the relationship between government and its citizens rivals this embedded potential battle space we all face within.
My title is somewhat tongue in cheek, coming from the iconic Star Wars movies. In the fictional there and then, a mass of different beings from across the galaxy band together to fight the universal problem of the “Sith Lord” that morphs from a conniving senator to a non-human being consumed by cosmic evil ruling the former galactic republic with a superhuman wielding of fear. This series of movies tapped into the perpetual drama machine of people and their concentrations of governmental power that transcends time, space and unique species. This is not a human problem, this is a cosmic issue needing a universal resolution.
Today humanity is living on the edge of overt terror and chaotic explosion of existing systems. Some humans are completely asleep to these psychic pressures, some feel the collective angst but see no solution and a few humans are designing a pathway forward. If you see and feel the increasing dictatorship of governmental mind as an existential issue then you are ready for this conversation.
The human organism is a unity of trillions of individual cellular life forms who from one point of view are born in a prison they can never escape from. More true is the human cell is in a win-win partnership of super mobility, capacity and memory. The single cell has a lifespan of days to months but lives within an organism that has persistent memory and routine allowing a newborn cell to be essentially fully capable of birth within an organization that approaches eternal life. Let’s explore how memory and routine are a chief ally in citadelization’s sense of self.
The last time I wrote a few months ago about AI’s complete rewriting of our political, economic and spiritual systems it was to encourage resilience through creating citadels of harmonious organization around you, your family and your tribe. This was step one in “talking off the ledge” the mass hysteria and escatological fixation upon the release of Chat GPT by using the principals of citadelization. Today we will deal with opposing polarity of AI and the savior complex so embedded within Western Civilization.
Last time we talked about chaos and order as implosive and explosive forces that find balance and create a citadel in the shape of a perfect sphere. Human history has yet to find that balance and we experience dramatic swings between order and chaos. Revolutions come along to break up dysfunctional orders and authoritarian regimes are established from the exhaustion of sustained chaos. What would a balanced human world and story look like?
This word chaos has infiltrated into branches of science, magic, arts, music, mythology and literature. We have enough vectors to state that chaos in any expression is that of anti-order. And if order is the tool of the patriarchy then chaos is in the realm of the matriarchy and the deepest feminine. Today, we will explore this idea of chaos being the feminine counterpoint to masculine order and their child being a citadel.
These last several weeks in my posts on the people’s power and responsibility under the heading of citadelization, I have encouraged a curation of our environment away from both slavery and psychopathy. This basic theme applied to a small tribe makes perfect sense. In the case of the psychopath or the slave mentality neither can be tolerated within the boundary of a healthy win-win organization. And win-win cooperation is the foundation of citadelization.
In my last post on citadelization, we explored the problem of psychopathy and being so self-centered that we treat everything external as a plaything of self-satisfaction and self-aggrandizement. The other end of the spectrum is the slave mentality of no independent sovereignty and being the perfect canvas of the psychopath. Both are a problem for any human organization and both reinforce the systemization of the other.
The human organism is based upon a win-win agreement among trillions of cells. Homeostasis, harmony and resilience are the key metrics for the life force and effectiveness any sized organization from the single human to the civilization. And yet, these principals of biological life have yet to be sustainably implemented within larger human organizations. Why? The psychopaths.
