Greetings, Dear Friends and Seekers.
Let me just start here by sharing one of my favorite old anecdotes to set up a backdrop for this message.

So, one day the King’s most loyal servant came into the royal chambers and said, “Your Majesty, all of the kingdom’s wheat has been infested with a fungus that turns the people crazy when they eat it!” The King sadly contemplated this news then replied, “If we are going to be able to understand the people, then you and I must consume the fungus and become crazy too. But before we partake of the grain, let us make a mark on each others forehead so that later, when we see one another, we will know that we chose to become insane, while everybody else is just crazy…”

In this case, I am quoting Ken Kesey, from his contribution to the opening of the “Timothy Leary’s Last Trip” documentary. In the past, I’ve only touched briefly on these topics, such as in “Arcanum: The Great Magickal Arcanum” or even “The Metaphysics of Stranger Things.” But, Ken Kesey was among the first to receive LSD-25 from CIA-sanctioned experiments starting in the 1950’s.

As a result of his experiences (as much of these experiments took place in ‘mental hospitals’), Ken Kesey was inspired to write the book (and inspiration for the movie) “One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest.” However, perhaps he is better known for co-founding the famous “Merry (Band of) Pranksters” in the 1960’s, whose adventurous brand of cacophony was loosely documented as “Electric Kool-Aid Acid Tests.”

You may as well ask, “why am I bringing all this up?” Well, as I mentioned in my interlogue contributed to the final volume of Douglas Monroe’s Merlyn Trilogy (Deepteachings of Merlyn) back in 2011: “So long as one maintains the ‘norms’ of society, there is no question of SANITY – and reality experience is one-to-one with the consensus of the REALM.”

Of course, what the “REALM” actually is, and what consequences exist for disagreement or non-conforming divergence, are far less often discussed. Because by definition, and in view of the purest etymology of the word: “REALITY” equals the “REALM of the King” — and naturally this is where we are now finding some trouble in the modern world.

But this has always been where we get into trouble as a society — when the politics and policies of “SANITY” and the “REALM” are called into question. And it’s been a long time since anyone has attempted to proclaim themselves “King” of America. In fact, that is the very reason this country was established to protect itself from such tyranny.

What Ken Kesey was alluding to might seem like the opening to a fantasy story in medieval times, but it is a direct jab at things that have happened right here in America. Note that LSD-25 resulted from pharmaceutical experiments regarding the ergot fungus and its potential medicinal use. Its militant use concerned the temporary psychosis that could be inflicted on an enemy (since it was tasteless, odorless, and psychoactive in minute traceless amounts).

Yet that is not the first time we have seen the appearance of ergot so strongly influence the determination of an individual’s “SANITY” in America. That credit must be given to the period of puritan “Salem Witch Hysteria” in Salem Village (now Danvers) Massachusetts. Keep in mind this was an event which had absolutely nothing to do with the supernatural and everything to do with excessive rain, lowland moldy crops, and a moronic union of ‘church’ and ‘state’.

It’s true that the Mardukite Academy of Systemology does also offer a complete education in practical magick, occultism and metaphysics (in addition to many other subjects and gradients of higher new thought). But those that know me or my work realize that I am not one of those New Age puffballs and so there is no reason for me to refrain from saying that the whole witchcraft aura around “Salem” is about as genuine as the Blair Witch. I explain much of this in “Arcanum: Great Magickal Arcanum” which is used at the Academy as the fundamental “magick school” textbook:

“In the 1970s, it was realized that the Salem Village was actually naturally divided by a lower western half and an elevated eastern part. Nearly all (30 of 32) of the accusers and victims occupied the western portion, while the apparently ‘sane’ and unaffected folk of the eastern half were actually accused of witchcraft. By the same time the following autumn, the hysteria was forgotten as an embarrassment (leaving 19 innocents hung and one compressed to death).”

“Doctors didn’t know much about ergot then. According to public records, 1691 was an unusually wet year for that community. Salem villagers managed their own crops as part of Puritan Tradition of self-sufficiency and were dependent on rye. The fungus that occurs on rye in the wetlands is very potent, comparable to LSD-25. It not only accounts for all of the physical symptoms of the victims, but also why only the rye grown in the lower elevations were affected. The annual harvest would have begun being introduced into the diet synchronously to when the sickness emerged in late 1691. Once the harvest of the drier year of 1692 is brought in, the hysteria disappears completely and is locally forgotten.”

Where it comes to the ‘Politics of Truth’ — the handling of REALITY, SANITY and governance of the REALM — we have too often seen the naivete and ignorance and pomposity of self-appointed “authorities” or even large masses of the “populus” play out as destructive violent and horrendous ends in the moment; yet when we look in the rearview, they are unapologetically dismissed as flaws in human nature.

And such an excuse, is quite honestly, inexcusable in the New World. With the stakes as high as they are, the magnitude of scale that is being handled today… how long will you continue to let it go on? You are more than the sum of what they have given you permission to be, do, and have — and my dear friends, even that false perception of permission may just be running out for you soon.

Two lifetimes ago — meaning two human incarnations prior to this one — I wrote about how strange it is that in view of the fact of how greedy and obsessive and lustful the human condition is toward accumulating more and more of everything, an individual seldom desires for more “sense” or “reason” than they already have, believing their given lot is sufficient at any given time. This is strange. And disturbing. And limiting.

While I did developed what is now referred to as ‘New Standard Systemology’ to effectively resolve such barriers to experiencing a metahuman state, it has been slow to catch on — and momentum towards that brand of ‘New Thought’ is still building.

Given that I am now finished with my literary work and goals for this incarnation, I feel little reservations in alluding to such information as what is referred to as ‘past lives’, since none of that was ever brought into play in order to establish the validity of the work these past few decades. Of course there are some that have known that this is not the first time (or even the second time) I have written on New Thought topics or even launched an interconnected publishing company. So, yeah, I had some practice; and that probably is easier to believe that thinking that all of what has come about during my present career was spontaneously generated from thin air.

I bring this up now as a further anecdotal example to consider in light of topics like “REALITY” and “SANITY.” This is a topic I addressed to tens of thousands of readers in the introduction to the Mardukite “Necronomicon” (and “Complete Anunnaki Bible”).

To get to my original point here: all folks tend to believe what they know to be true and they continue to validate their beliefs from within their “paradigm” or “perspective” or “viewpoint” that distinguishes their perceived experience. But that paradigm or “worldview” is authoritatively dictated to them and/or through social conformation. Everything must be black and white for those who cling to the “old” and stagnation, and there is no room for non-conformity of any kind.

The language lesson (etymology) goes something like this: the word REALITY comes from the root ‘reg’, meaning “ruler” and “realm”, which is to say the “king” who as the “ruler” establishes the ‘measure’ of the “Realm” and thereby the definitions of REALITY. Of course the nature of the beast has changed in some ways for our modern world. But again, there are now those that think they know better. And while they believe themselves to be in possession of some unique communication line to the Divine, all of their actions would suggest otherwise.

The boundaries of a functional civilization are once again being called into question. In this accelerated age, nothing lasts. New movements, political parties, ideals and religions have experienced the same “enlightened rise” and “corrupt fall” that would have taken hundreds if not thousands of years in the past.

The distinction constituting the difference between what is “REAL” versus “INSANITY” is now being orchestrated with physical technologies (which only mirror the more advanced spiritual technologies coinciding with this world that you are not even consciously aware of — although we all compulsively and unknowingly contribute to their creation. (But that is a matter you will find out about in upper-level Systemology if you choose to reach out that far.)

The practical conclusion I would like to suggest is that the way of the old-school “sanitariums” and state-funded “asylums” is a diabolical travesty and crime against the human spirit. Yeah, maybe if our Systemology processing therapy were employed, but it is likely to be ignorant Clockwork Orange style nazi-tactics of abusive torture, electric shocks and lobotomies passed off maliciously as promoting social rehabilitation. This is the way that “civilized” societies like to deal with those that won’t keep in step with authority. Because outright killing is just too “uncivilized.”

SANITY is a LEGAL definition determined by the STATE; not a clinical one found anywhere in the field of what is laughingly called Psychology.

This means you better watch out; you better not cry; you better not pout about whats going on where anyone can see you — UNLESS you are fully prepared to stand strong, unite together and defend a sustainable world today; because tomorrow you may just find that they took your legs to stand with.
