The Grand Illusion
A. H. Maslow in "The Farther Reaches of Human Nature" article "Synergy in the Society and Individual" An Esalen, Penguin Books 1976 ISBN 0 14 00. 4265 2 Chapter 14, Page 191
Ruth Benedict (Patterns of Culture; Race, Science and Politics) an essay on holism, invented and developed the idea of synergy at lectures at Bryn Mawr College in 1941. Maslow had the only copy which was to be published with the assistance of Margaret Mead in 1970.
Benedict tried to overcome the idea of cultural equality ( not everything is good, true, and equal to others ) and questioned the doctrine of cultural relativity, whatever works for you is OK by me. Societies she said have a flavor, character and are not all equally functional. Some societies are "anxious", surly, nasty, aggressive, and hateful, this come from insecurity and causes low morale. ( such as the Chuckchee, the Ojibwa, The Dobu, and the Kwakiutl) Other societies were "nice" people, affectionate, kind, secure and with high morale. ( Zuni, Arapesh, The L(d)eKota, Eskimo ). The low morale cultures were, however as or more productive and successful in their environment as the high morale ones.
The critical element in the concept of synergy is aggression (capitalism) vs. cooperation (socialism). Synergy is where individual benefit and groups welfare are in balance. Farming, fishing, hunting can produce mutual benefits of cooperation. Selfish self-interest (winner/losers) vs. unselfish, altruism (win/win) is a moral not a utilitarian concept.
Here in Bali people are "nice" people, affectionate, kind, secure and with high morale and it holds back material progress, compared to China and other countries in SE Asia with a more Chinese attitude.
It is (I am afraid to say) wrong that societies that siphoning vs. funneling of wealth, focus on ownership,  have low energy institutions, while high energy are characteristics of synergy. We have had a outbreak of win/lose - me and mine - the hell with the hindmost, winner take all, activity. This discourages the losers, causes aggression, and is socially dysfunctional but can be economically powerful. As institutions maintain high energy on competition the society is stressed. Synergy (romantic communism) is spiritual and systems for successful cooperation, institutional means of using aggression (learning for conflict), and rewards for all from social success (tide lifts all boats). It also discourages initiative, standing out in any way, and a cultural communist way “we pretend to work, and you pretend to pay us.”
Whereas tribalism and collectivist societies do not distinguish between natural laws and social customs, so that individuals are unlikely to challenge traditions they believe to have a sacred or magical basis, the beginnings of an open society are marked by a distinction between natural and man-made law, and an increase in personal responsibility and accountability for moral choices (not incompatible with religious belief). [5]
Culture collectivizes moral and aesthetic preferences by depicting them as the imposed conditions of life implicit in a world with a particular structure, as mere common sense given the unalterable shape of reality. On the other, it supports these received beliefs about the world's body by invoking deeply felt moral and aesthetic sentiments as experiential evidence for their truth. Religious symbols formulate a basic congruence between a particular style of life and a specific (if, most often, implicit) metaphysical, and in so doing sustain each with the borrowed authority of the other.
These Lies and half truths appeal to Unreasonable passions, that are the foundations of modern civilizations; capitalist and socialist. Sex and violence, us and them, death wishes, transference, rationalization, sublimation, frustration, repressed, subconscious, Oedipus complex, phallic symbols, collective conscientious, archetypes, interpretation of dreams , Friedan slips, all in selling the product be it a president or a fast car, or financial service, or a public policy, a war and, military industrial complex, a happy pill, beer, cigarettes, religions and popular entertainments.
Beyond our common illusions is a magnificent illusion. We are not the center of the Universe. The sun does not stand still. We are a part of the animal kingdom, descended from the apes. We act on all kinds of impulses below our awareness, we confuse dreams, stories, and wishes with external reality. Our societies are often determined by social class, ruled by special interests, oppressive and unfair. Even the most hard nosed science has the illusion of power and understanding of profound mysteries, and the false belief in control and progress. There are great and wonderful benefits of all the illusions, of freedom, of justice, or "truth", and what good comes from shattering these dreams ? If one can choice ones illusion, or be retrained or programmed into beliefs, should they not be happy ones. Can I not prefer to avoid and ignore unhappy "truth" ? Where does mercy and the law error on the side of the angels.

I. PRIMITIVE MAN AND HIS RELIGION is in your brain
[MB 17] There are no peoples however primitive without religion and magic. Nor are there, it must be added at once, any savage races lacking either in the scientific attitude or in science, though this lack has been frequently attributed to them. In every primitive community, studied by trustworthy and competent observers, there have been found two clearly distinguishable domains, the Sacred and the Profane; in other words, the domain of Magic and Religion and that of Science.

On the one hand there are the traditional acts and observances, regarded by the natives as sacred, carried out with reverence and awe, hedged around with prohibitions and special rules of behavior. Such acts and observances are always associated with beliefs in supernatural forces, especially those of magic, or with ideas about beings, spirits, ghosts, dead ancestors, or gods. On the other hand, a moment's reflection is sufficient to show that no art or craft however primitive could have been invented or maintained, no organized form of hunting, fishing, tilling, or search for food could be carried out without the careful observation [MB 18] of natural process and a firm belief in its regularity, without the power of reasoning and without confidence in the power of reason; that is, without the rudiments of science.

The credit of having laid the foundations of an anthropological study of religion belongs to Edward B. Tylor. In his well-known theory he maintains that the essence of primitive religion is animism, the belief in spiritual beings, and he shows how this belief has originated in a mistaken but consistent interpretation of dreams, visions, hallucinations, cataleptic states, and similar phenomena. Reflecting on these, the savage philosopher or theologian was led to distinguish the human soul from the body. Now the soul obviously continues to lead an existence after death, for it appears in dreams, haunts the survivors in memories and in visions and apparently influences human destinies. Thus originated the belief in ghosts and the spirits of the dead, in immortality and in a nether world. But man in general, and primitive man in particular, has a tendency to imagine the outer world in his own image. And since animals, plants, and objects move, act, behave, help man or hinder him, they must also be endowed with souls or spirits. Thus animism, the philosophy and the religion of primitive man, has been built up from observations and by inferences, mistaken but comprehensible in a crude and untutored mind

Why did  humans evolved a bigger brain, and so fast?  
Why did the human brain become so complex? Why did we learn to speak? Why do we have certain behaviours? Why did we become so intelligent? And how do our brains differ from a monkey’s or a dolphin’s?
Tools, Language and Cognition in Human Evolution Kathleen R. Gibson, ‎Kathleen Rita Gibson, ‎Tim Ingold - 1994 - ‎Preview - ‎More editions
Looks at how humans have evolved complex behaviours such as language and culture.
Anthropologist John Tooby and psychologist Leda Cosmides note:
"Evolutionary psychology is the long-forestalled scientific attempt to assemble out of the disjointed, fragmentary, and mutually contradictory human disciplines a single, logically integrated research framework for the psychological, social, and behavioral sciences—a framework that not only incorporates the evolutionary sciences on a full and equal basis, but that systematically works out all of the revisions in existing belief and research practice that such a synthesis requires."[11] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_psychology

If human behavior could be scientifically established - then the 1000's of theories and special causes could be reduced to evidence based laws. (human nature) then all organized activity - education, military, business, religion, even unorganized politics and marketing, could come to common understandings of the basics, groups and tribes, old id, libido and ego and superego, leadership, science and magic, relationships - peace and war  ... why not?
Compared to his hominid predecessors, Homo sapiens is a cerebral giant, ...There is considerable debate regarding whether the earliest anatomically modern humans behaved similarly to recent or existing humans. Modern human behaviors characteristic of recent humans includes a language, the capacity for abstract thought and the use of symbolism to express cultural creativity. There are two opposing hypotheses regarding the origins of modern behavior. Some scholars argue that humans achieved anatomical modernity first, around 200,000 years ago. Later, around 50,000 years ago, humans then adopted modern behaviors. This hypothesis is based on the record of fossils and biogenic substances from periods before 50,000 years ago[54][55] and the human artifacts found after 50,000 years ago.[56] Correspondingly, as stated by Paul Mellars, the view distinguishes anatomically modern humans from behaviorally modern humans.[57]
A swift expansion
Homo sapiens arrived in Europe some 45,000 years ago, from Africa. In less than 15,000 years, they managed to occupy the whole of Europe and Eurasia—an extremely rapid expansion. Neanderthals, on the other hand, were born of Europe, appearing on the continent more than 250,000 years ago, after their ancestors, Homo ergaster, had become established there 600,000 years earlier.
The term anatomically modern humans[1] (AMH) or anatomically modern Homo sapiens[2] (AMHS) refers in paleoanthropology to individual members of the species Homo sapiens with an appearance consistent with the range of phenotypes in modern humans.
Anatomically modern humans evolved from archaic Homo sapiens in the Middle Paleolithic, about 200,000 years ago.[3] The emergence of anatomically modern human marks the dawn of the subspecies Homo sapiens sapiens,[4] i.e. the subspecies of Homo sapiens that includes all modern humans.
The first early modern humans to be found were the Cro-Magnons in Europe. During the latter half of the 20th century, new finds from all over the world, like those quoted above and others greatly expanded our knowledge of the origin and spread of modern humans. The term Cro-Magnon was sometimes used for all of these, but has now been replaced by the term early modern humans in literature, the term Cro-Magnon now used for finds similar to the original find.[36][37]
The term "early" when applied to modern humans is usually restricted to finds from the upper Palaeolithic, ending about 10,000 years ago.[37] This coincides with the end of the last ice age, which also saw the end of the ice age megafauna. At this point the human population of the world switched from a culture of big game hunting to smaller game and later to agriculture.[42][43] With higher population densities, better tools and less demands for brute strength, people all over the world became less robust, resulting in the comparatively more gracile population of today.[44] Thus, anatomically modern humans can roughly be divided into two groups, the early (robust) and post-glacial (gracile) populations.

Watch this video Images of realities inside #becoming #human - there is a lot you need to know, and must learn to be an awake human being- clear out the trash, sleepwalking and focus on the realities, we are animals, our brains are animal brains with important additions. How did this happen?  I know the secret and you can find out!  You have to run the video!
These are the answers to life's' persistent questions. Freud was born about the time Darwin published evolution. While we accept our place in the cosmos we have not come to terms with our animal nature.
How Brain Evolution Has Given Us Love, Memory, Dreams, and God.
Language serves as a cornerstone for human cognition, yet much about its evolution remains puzzling. Recent research on this question parallels Darwin's attempt to explain both the unity of all species and their diversity. What has emerged from this research is that the unified nature of human language arises from a shared, species-specific computational ability. This ability has identifiable correlates in the brain and has remained fixed since the origin of language approximately 100 thousand years ago. Although songbirds share with humans a vocal imitation learning ability, with a similar underlying neural organization, language is uniquely human as are art, music, mathematics, abstract thinking, social learning, history, culture, religion, politics, people skills, physical skills (sports), design, acting, directing, scientific research, global reach, enterprise, finance, adventure, family - parenting - healing, doctoring, auto racing, animal training, making YouTube video, social media, engineering, spying, military,, policing, crafts, sex, wine and cheese making, cooking, reporting, editor, comedy, etc..

Some brain characteristics connected to human consciousness and intelligence, like brain asymmetry, the "consciousness" or "theory of mind" based on mirror neurons are surprisingly present in monkeys. Nevertheless, the human intelligence is extremely flexible and different, while the animal intelligence is specialised, producing one thing at high level. Based on recent knowledge the level of intelligence is related anatomically to the number of cortical neurons and physiologically to the speed of conductivity of neural pathways, the latter being dependent on the degree of myelinisation. The improvement of cognitive functions including language is driver by the need of more effective communication requiring less energy, the need of social dominance, the competitive advantages within smaller groups and species or against other species, which improves the opportunity for obtaining food. Better mental skills give also sexual dominance, which is beneficial for stabilising "cleverness" genes. The evolutionary history of human consciousness emphasises its adaptive survival helping nature. The evolution of language was the basic condition of conscious thinking as a qualitative change, which fundamentally differentiate us from all other creatures.

Ants in the arak (attack);

The map is not the territory; of other unseen worlds
Emerson and Thoreau, American transcendentalist;

The ants are very small 凡 smaller than the Argentinean ones we did battle with in Javea, Spain.  They do clean up anything left or dropped 凡 but if you leave your plate for a few minutes and there they are, helping them selves. It is hard keeping them out of the drink 凡 it has honey in it 凡 and lemon (actually lime they call lemon), and the coconut brandy 凡 the native drink. There is also a Tikus 凡 a rat 凡 a native and who has a bad reputation because they carried a flea that wiped out a quarter of the population a few hundred years age 凡 so did the Nazis who also were a plague, black death SS 凡 and I don't want either as a guest.

Now the charming ways of the natives 凡 warm, friendly, but devious, sort of incompetent, hay don't stop the ceremony. (carnival in St Thomas book by Herman W)

There is a ceremony about every fourth day 凡 but they do not have a weekend.  It ties the families and communities closely together. Those that pray together (everyday) stay together. The gods are appeased every morning with gifts of flowers, fruit and incests.

It took a month to figure out you cut the glass to fit lenses in new frames. I adjust 凡 if it's too much for  foreigners, then go back  to where you came from. I loved the old days in cheap, almost free in $, fascist Spain, loved St. Thomas and lived with the difficulties. I had a small yacht to get off shore. There was a mess at the PO 凡 here there is no PO. ( real snail mail  6 weeks+ from US)

Every social, intellectual political, religious doctrine, or framework is an impediment to seeing reality clearly and not through a smoked glass darkly. GOOD white and EVIL black are constructs 凡 and distort the 1000 shades of gray, the true, the beautiful, wise, accepted, authoritarian, Orthodox, patriotism, nationalism, socialism, Fascism, democracy, Christianity, Hinduism, Dadaism, Islam, zen, Buddhism, Confucius, anarchistic, enlightened, reasonable, scientific, all prejudice the information and squish it into acceptable categories 凡 called bias, bigotry, class and racial preconceptions.

These frames are absolutely necessary to operate in reality.  Just be sure you are aware of framing and look out for others framing for you.

With this in mind, my take on the situation.

And where is my passport? A pending disaster ?
I paid 2 million (at 11,000 per $) for an agent that Bobby knew, to get my passports stamps renewed. Another stupid act of faith? Bobby guaranteed it.
If I don't have the four stamps for Dec, Jan. Feb, March I am not legally in the country and can't leave without a 200,000 Irp fine for every day not covered 凡 I have tickets for Singapore and back March 20 凡 24 I can't change 凡 A COMPLETE disaster! Don't worry everything will be alright 凡 BS maybe 凡 maybe not
,
The story about 5 year retired visa is make believe, except maybe if you pay $1000's to a wired in agent in Jakarta. After collecting documents on their list, at a lot of trouble and expense and following rules in publications 凡 nothing has worked  and the truth is a stranger凡 maybe it costs 7 million a year 凡 with or without trips to Singapore 凡 or five years no trips (single entry ) for 10 million ??凡 all a guess 凡 and nothing has been done ...For a year nothing works and the stories multiply, and the frustration grows and grows. Nothing I have been told by anyone since January 2013 has been right !

So lets go to Thailand 凡 the money is cheap (because of the riots ) food is good, and somewhere along the long eastern coast is a perfect spot 凡 visa no problem (maybe) and they have actual rules, laws, bureaucracy, a rational process not a 'free for all'  like here and in the West Indies.

I taught government bureaucracy, a oxymoron, in the west indies. The ad hock process in clan and family centered countries depends more on who you are and who are your relatives than any set of abstract laws; also true in dictatorships which can be flexible; where maybe someone can do anything because of raw power  I.e. Russia.   Indonesia has some of the worst of both 凡 the active remains of a corrupt military dictatorship and a natural go easy temperament where relationships are more important than abstract rules and procedures. You are not in the family or community then rules are different for aliens. Bribes are a social necessity. (side payments 凡 grease ) after all I grew up in Chicago.

Also in Thailand they have super markets and highly organized street markets with really great food , clean, with real garbage trucks 凡 drug stores with Rx pharmacist 凡 computer shops 凡 competent technicians 凡 where they know what a mushroom is 凡 beans 凡 salad dressing, and foreign food like olive oil, taco sauce, hamburger, even wine (very bad and expensive in Bali because Indonesia is a  majority Islamic country, the largest) dairy products are not common in Asia so cheese  - sour cream 凡are rare,  there is a good cheap local rum in Thailand. Buddhist not Hindu but close. I don't remember being attacked by plagues of motor bikes in Bangkok 凡 as I was in Saigon.

But I am settled here and like it 凡 the sweet deviousness and incompetence come with the territory 凡 keeps them poor, backward and a deal for foreigners.  Intent is more important than results in Hindu thought about Karma. They mean well, and diplomacy requires an indifference to reality. Getting along means going along 凡 the facts are not all-important. Except when something need to be done right. A great tradition of crafts does not translate into organizations. I do not like the thief who snatched money from my room when I was asleep ・who had to know where it was ・so a clear inside job, stealing from guests ・and nothing is done ・he is related, everyone is.

Now Bali is a mess. Too many cars, too little road equals constant traffic jams with flocks of motor bikes moving in and out in what appears a very dangerous manner.  It is better on the north and east coast, far away from Kuta.  Places in the mountains and around Ubud can look beautiful with layers of rice patties, green fields inside a tropic forest and no mess. Trash is a real issue and it ends up in the ocean and on beaches.

While Singapore and Thailand have thousands of neat stalls many offering great food, Bali has messy road side Comados ? ( The Puerto Rican little store, bar, cook out, etc.) Markets are not regulated and a blot on the roads, food is old, over cooked and not anything you would look forward to having. A Lot worse than central America.

Singaporeans are clearly industrious people, Chinese, Balinese are not 凡 they are extraordinary patient  in their traffic jams, there is no pushing or shoving, they are soft spoken, friendly, helpful if they can, and mostly honest. Now Singapore is no way as pushy as New York, Paris or Rome and traffic is orderly. But in comparison with Bali they are in a hurry 凡 not quite as rapid moving as I saw in China or Londoners who move faster that Spaniards - its an interesting measurement. Progress has a price 凡 and Singapore is expensive.

The cost of moving to Thailand is far less than the endless, difficult and expensive Indonesian immigration mess. ($2,000 or so for agent and expenses plus endless paper work)

http://www.overseasthinktankforindonesia.com/tag/kitas/

" Indonesia筑s immigration policies are based on outdated laws originally designed to protect Indonesia筑s workers from job-stealing foreigners. In today筑s reality, the immigration system has been distorted into a cash cow for those that manage it.

The real cost of this inability of the nation筑s civil service to reform itself is seen in the nation筑s weak economic performance, by the lack of confidence of business to invest in wealth producing industries 凡 of which the ailing tourism sector is only one.
While today筑s immigration rules cost the nation billions of dollars in lost business, our near neighbors earn cash windfalls from unwitting (and unwilling) visa-run tourists.媒
so let's try Thailand:

I found that Thailand is not problem free, for long term stay and complex rule require an agent at about $1000. Boarder are close 凡 Malaysia, Burma, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the bus is modern and cheap. It rains 凡 but it has been raining here (Bali) for a month.

Long term stay in Indonesia; KITAS
This all has been done 凡 now what ?

I have false pride and am immensely stupid. I believe that my pathetic ideas are a authentic representation of reality. How could my shallow thoughts reflect the order of nature itself. How could my thoughts comprehend the true nature of life, physics, the cosmos, time, and even my own being. To think my ideas are reality, is indeed most arrogant and foolish. It is said that the beginning of wisdom is awareness of ones ignorance. I am worse than rocks, than beasts and savages because I try to impose my foolishness on the world.

I come to believe that what I think is - it is indeed a "grand Illusion" of false power and fake glory. I even believe that - that is all there is - nothing more! I could try to allow my being, mind, body and spirit rest in its own existence. I could come to terms with myself but I am too busy with needs and desires. I could come into some kind of meaningful relationship with creation if... I could feel the proper respect for the other but I am too afraid of letting go of my false faces, defenses, passions, and hidden doubts. Sophist are those who adjust, subconsciously perhaps, their ideas to their interests. They reflect the popular beliefs and glow in reflected self-admiration. They think they are smart because of the praise of fools. I am a sophist, and bask in the false light of praise. I think the thoughts that will be rewarded and reject hard truths that will get me into trouble. I am devious, untrue to my self or others, can not be trusted, I forget the little wisdom, I once knew, I flounder in new and fashionable theories.

Paradigms;
As we are to deal with meaning, let us begin with a paradigm: viz., that sacred symbols, the Geist that functions to synthesize a people's ethos--the tone, character, and quality of their life, its moral and aesthetic style and mood --and their world view--the picture they have of the way things in sheer actuality are, their most comprehensive ideas of order. In religious belief and practice a group's ethos is rendered intellectually reasonable by being shown to represent a way of life ideally adapted to the actual state of affairs the world view describes, while the world view is rendered emotionally convincing by being presented as an image of an actual state of affairs peculiarly well-arranged to accommodate such a way of life. When Paradigms fail the people become subject to psychopathic outburst, and can be dangerous. The death and rebirth of the Seneca, Wallace.  

This confrontation and mutual confirmation has two fundamental effects. On the one hand, it collectivizes moral and aesthetic preferences by depicting them as the imposed conditions of life implicit in a world with a particular structure, as mere common sense given the unalterable shape of reality. On the other, it supports these received beliefs about the world's body by invoking deeply felt moral and aesthetic sentiments as experiential evidence for their truth. Religious symbols formulate a basic congruence between a particular style of life and a specific (if, most often, implicit) metaphysical, and in so doing sustain each with the borrowed authority of the other.

Religion has marketed itself with cliches platitudes, truisms, banal slogans that works so well in advertising. The church has fought the modern world since the renaissance and Galileo. 党The 13th century was good and leave us alone to rule in peace媒 .

The religious right is most radical, the liberal left most conservative.

The idea of conservationism is there is wisdom in tradition and social political experiments are dangerous, and don't work out as desired.

Shamelessness: Shame is the feeling that lurks beneath all unhealthy narcissism, and the inability to process shame in healthy ways.
Magical thinking: Narcissists see themselves as perfect, using distortion and illusion known as magical thinking. They also use projection to dump shame onto others.
Arrogance: A narcissist who is feeling deflated may reinflate by diminishing, debasing, or degrading somebody else.
Envy: A narcissist may secure a sense of superiority in the face of another person's ability by using contempt to minimize the other person.
Entitlement: Narcissists hold unreasonable expectations of particularly favorable treatment and automatic compliance because they consider themselves special. Failure to comply is considered an attack on their superiority, and the perpetrator is considered an "awkward" or "difficult" person. Defiance of their will is a narcissistic injury that can trigger narcissistic rage.
Exploitation: Can take many forms but always involves the exploitation of others without regard for their feelings or interests. Often the other is in a subservient position where resistance would be difficult or even impossible. Sometimes the subservience is not so much real as assumed.

Bad boundaries: Narcissists do not recognize that they have boundaries and that others are separate and are not extensions of themselves. Others either exist to meet their needs or may as well not exist at all. Those who provide narcissistic supply to the narcissist are treated as if they are part of the narcissist and are expected to live up to those expectations. In the mind of a narcissist there is no boundary between self and other.

 1.
an idealistic philosophical and social movement that developed in New England around 1836 in reaction to rationalism. Influenced by romanticism, Platonism, and Kantian philosophy, it taught that divinity pervades all nature and humanity, and its members held progressive views on feminism and communal living. Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau were central figures.
 2.
a system developed by Immanuel Kant, based on the idea that, in order to understand the nature of reality, one must first examine and analyze the reasoning process that governs the nature of experience.

Who are you? To thyself be true ! Master of my soul, with free will - this is not likely because there are so many moving parts. I am as the lone child of the mother inside me, as a member of a tribe, clan, nation and people with a legacy, worker, parent, citizen, gods creature, of little faith, made by creation, or nature, with a plan, and purpose, or by chance, luck, or others will, trained, educated, indoctrinated, brain washed, with so many moving parts, roles, duties, ideas, feelings, what is real, so answer - I am.....becoming..

singularity; the vision thing

The technological singularity, or simply the singularity, is a hypothetical moment in time when artificial intelligence will have progressed to the point of a greater-than-human intelligence, radically changing civilization, and perhaps human nature. Since the capabilities of such an intelligence may be difficult for a human to comprehend, the technological singularity is often seen as an occurrence (akin to a gravitational singularity) beyond which the future course of human history is unpredictable or even unfathomable.

The first use of the term "singularity" in this context was by mathematician John von Neumann. In 1958, regarding a summary of a conversation with von Neumann, Stanislaw Ulam described "ever accelerating progress of technology and changes in the mode of human life, which gives the appearance of approaching some essential singularity in the history of the race beyond which human affairs, as we know them, could not continue". The term was popularized by science fiction writer Vernor Vinge, who argues that artificial intelligence, human biological enhancement, or brain-computer interfaces could be possible causes of the singularity. Futurist Ray Kurzweil cited von Neumann's use of the term in a foreword to von Neumann's classic The Computer and the Brain.
Proponents of the singularity typically postulate an "intelligence explosion", where superintelligences design successive generations of increasingly powerful minds, that might occur very quickly and might not stop until the agent's cognitive abilities greatly surpass that of any human.

Leaders; real and fake
I am creating a new means of communication - as far as anything can be new in the world today. Pictures tell a story open to the subjective character of the viewer - truly Platonic interior teaching adjusted to the reality of the individual. Sort of like Arabic where it is more poetry and subjective with several possible meaning - almost impossible to be precise with this kind of language that is helpful in domestic and diplomatic relationships in large family groups or tribes..
Can democracy work when people are driven by irrational forces they do not understand ?  Does the responsible elite establishment need to control the masses by manipulation of those needs and desires? Is government just another use of selling as done in marketing of soap, cereal and cars.Where has a responsible civic elite gone? Fox news, the Koch brothers ?
 People of the enlightenment believed in the perfectibility of mankind, starting with a blank slate, and therefore the possibility of self government and a more perfect society. Politics comes from polis the civic paradigm in ancient Greece, their constitution was to make men better and better men would make a better society. They also believed people make rational choices.

Counterfeit money drives out good money - how can you tell what is real?
Does modern political systems just reflect the common commercial culture?
The success of marketing based on irrational primal forces in our sub and unconscious minds has produced its' own demand - |  
Say’s law states that the production of goods creates its own demand.
In 1803, John Baptiste Say explained his theory.
“It is worthwhile to remark that a product is no sooner created than it, from that instant, affords a market for other products to the full extent of its own value.” (J. B. Say, 1803: pp.138–9)
This view suggests that the key to economic growth is not increasing demand, but increasing production. Say’s views were expanded on by classical economists, such as James Mill and David Ricardo.
John Maynard Keynes summarised Say’s law in his 1936, General Theory of Money
“From the time of Say and Ricardo the classical economists have taught that supply creates its own demand...” Another myth people believed for good reasons - it justified lower taxes and let the rich avoid the need to maintain the social contract since the invisible hand will take care of everything.

The Open Society and Its Enemies  Karl Popper.

Popper saw the open society as standing on a historical continuum reaching from the organic, tribal or closed society, through the open society marked by a critical attitude to tradition, up to the abstract or depersonalised society lacking all face-to-face transactions.
Popper saw the classical Greeks as initiating the long slow transition from tribalism towards the open society, and as facing for the first time the strain imposed by the less personal group relations entailed thereby.

The need for leadership

In many studies of community power structures, one fact stands out – you need leadership.  The West Side Highway in NYC has been planned for 50 years. The division of authority prevented action since the end of Robert Moses, the master builder, who knew how to get it done - Robert Moses: Long Island's Master Builder  Robert Caro: Understanding Power  :Robert Moses and the Fall of New York: Robert A Caro...
"Surely the greatest book ever written about a city." --David Halberstam "A masterpiece of American reporting. It's more than the story of a tragic figure ...http://www.amazon.com/The-Power-Broker-Robert-Moses/dp/0394720245
Atlanta has a focus for community leaders, so does Chicago, Minnesota twin cities, Omaha, Orlando, Austin less so Boston,  Houston, L. A., Miami, as shown in Sports stadiums and big down town projects.

Now there is a lack of leadership in Congress, and POTUS has not been all that skillful. So little gets done since Republicans took over the house and disaster is around the corner.

The model for third wave society - the most successful political economy - is the People's Republic of China. PRC
Think about how complex our support systems are - 10's of millions in cities, air, water, transport, communication, jobs, money, markets, crime, health, education, waste, food, safety, sex, entertainment, information, social activities, sports, and how primitive are American decision and planning capacities.  The lack of societal intelligence will keep us at a competitive disadvantage -  compare to military logistics, supply chains, systems analysis, all foreign to most leaders - lawyers, politicians, media outlets, who are caught up in trivia and short term thinking.. not so in China, Singapore, ...
Mass mobilization and democratic centralization work with a state guided economy to rationally plan and execute infrastructure, including human resources, balance supply and demand, smooth the transition from one generation to another.
China is the model of a large nation having a successful political economy with a smooth rationalization of the social contract. The nature of post modern society is meritarcy, high education and training in specialities and enterprise based on capital markets. If you want to see enterprise try Shanghai or Beijing IT world.
Time to examine some of our favorite myths, the tie between Democracy and capitalism, first past the post competitive  elections, European cultural superiority, balance of power conflicts, military empires, the invisible  hand, rational choice, equilibrium and stability, great democracies are peaceful, material well being is the most important measure of human happiness,

Freud was born about the time "Origin of the Species" by Charles Darwin was published. Between them they destroyed the myth of the rational man, the economic man of calculated choices, and therefore the rational society with civic minded mass publics. Darwin created the human animal and Freud made him savage when he is caged by civilization and can't express his sexual and aggressive passions.
So welcome to the world of 2014 – Imperialism in Africa and the middle east with artificial borders is a evil mix of overpopulation, ancient myths and false beliefs, armed with tools of mass destruction. A  unemployed undereducated population of young males have taken up arms from Libya to Baghdad, from Damascus to Angola.
The old western civilization has entered a third great transformation.
The first was from hunters gatherers to “civilization” or cities with specialization of trades and crafts, and a ruling elite of aristocracy and clergy, with laws, police and armies.
Second, In 13th century a age of  reason and enlightenment began with contact with the more civilized moors in Spain and with the classics they had preserved. By the 17th century elites began to believe that people and society could be rational and they needed to do away with superstitions, clericalism, royalist, and all that medieval Gothic stuff.
People of the enlightenment believed in the perfectibility of mankind, starting with a blank slate, and therefore the possibility of self government and a more perfect society. Politics comes from polis the civic paradigm in ancient Greece, their constitution was to make men better and better men would make a better society. They also believed people make rational choices.
The use of reason and logic let to science and engineering, exploration and discovery, with the raise of capitalism, banking, joint stock companies, (if you only have a few ships and they are lost in a storm you are out of business, but if you spread the risk over thousands of ships it just becomes a cost of doing business) laws and courts to enforce complex commercial arrangement. Thus the industrial revolution in several waves, steel and coal, steam and textiles, oil, electric power, chemistry, cars, planes, radio and TV, with air conditioning, pest control, making Florida possible.
Now the third transformation which is digital, quantitative, mathematical, biological, systems, advanced engineering, all requiring high skills and specialization.  The Anglo owners of American companies employed central European labor, and German and Scottish technicians. Then they hired professional managers and went to live on investments in colonies of the very rich.  But now the management and founders have to know the business – in a way Carnegie did not know steel technology, Rockefeller knew little about oil, but they knew business and how to make a cartel work to protect high profits from newcomers.

100 years ago in August 1914 a great world war began over nationalism in the Balkans, and Germany took preemptive action on the western front to get ahead of a slow Russia mobilization, afraid of the two front war.  France was eager to revenge its defeat in the Franco-Prussian war two decades earlier. Everyone misunderstood each others' intentions and all expected it to be over by Christmas. There would be a treaty we settling some old issues. Instead many millions died as all hell broke out.  Russia became the USSR, the Ottoman empire was torn apart by France and England, creating instability clearly present today. The Austria-Hungarian empire was torn into pieces by nationalism and American politics.  Central Europe is just beginning to put itself back together.   The peace of Versailles  was vindictive and unworkable and caused a economic disaster and a second world war. WW II ended with the atomic bomb.
Not a perfect record for European Civilization...

I think the channel "all and everything" is unique on YouTube because I don't have anything to sell including a doctrine. I have no goods or services to market. I am in the world but not of the world being off and into here and now in Bali, at my age (78) and retired - I have been looking for places that truely want to inform, guide, and help on the path to enlightenment and find they all have something to sell. The best are meditative music or Buddhist, Hindu, zen, yoga, reflective sites -

Don't think about what the program is trying to say - it says whatever you feel or think it says.

What do you feel and think about the state of the planet, of your country, your community, your tribe, family, work, money, security, future, faith, politics, economics, whatever - here is a sight and sound poem – poems just are - it is much better to watch the program several times - there is a lot in you to find in it.

Socrates did not write because the true, the good, and the beautiful is in you, me, all of us; every souls on earth - and our truth, goodness and beauty is our very own; we are all different in experience, genes, social position, education and in time and space; you can find in yourself, your dreams, your passions, your hopes and fears, surface and deep desires, needs and wants, who you really are.

Take the soul train to glory. Wake up and come out of the shadows, illusions, false beliefs, that limit, hold you back, take the road to freedom. In consort with your spouse, partners, lovers, (not all at the same time) children, parents, friends, colleagues,  find what is shaping your life, happiness, success, prosperity, expand your education, make use of the internet, YouTube and this video (one of 80) find what you can discover for yourself. Yes you can!

 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these [is] charity. Love: The Superior Way ◄ 1 Corinthians 13 ►

1920's USSR reform school for wayward youth – became model of soviet education – with the use of groups – houses and democratic centralization – best example of dramatic social change with great results – also  a good read. Makarenko wrote several books, of which The Pedagogical Poem a fictionalized story of the Gorky Colony, was especially popular in the USSR. In 1955 a movie with English title Road to Life was produced.
 2.) Peter Weir "The Last Wave" movie
Aborigines in Australia where the “law” of tribal custom is 40,000 years old and so strong that belief can cause death with the shaking of a bone. Great insight into primordial tribal reality that is in the back of all our brains.
 3) The Seneca - social stress good v evil Death and Rebirth of Seneca by Anthony Wallace
Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, This book tells the story of the late colonial and early reservation history of the Seneca Indians, and of the prophet Handsome Lake, his visions, and the moral and religious revitalization of an American Indian society -
When people in groups face serious changes in the paradigms they live by and are threaten in their essence that make a culture what it fundamentally is, and without which it loses its identity. The white southern men of the silent majority・of the ongoing culture wars against liberals・and secularization, integration, feminism, the counter culture, the rise of scientific methods over the traditional authority of religion.
You peasants can't handle the truth
 4) W Edward Deming   Quality management
A major paradigm shift was with a understanding of Edward Deming quality control groups.
The core of the shift is that inspection, fixed procedures and rules, close supervision, only make things worse beyond rote activity. It is quality is not oddments hung on the tree but needs to grow from the roots. Success in enterprises beyond the most basic thoughtless rote activities requires active self governing groups -
5) Bernays Propaganda - Crystallizing Public Opinion Advertising  The Freud dynasty is at the heart of this compelling social history. Sigmund Freud, founder of psychoanalysis; Edward Bernays, who invented public relations; Anna Freud, Sigmund' devoted daughter; and present-day PR guru and Sigmund great grandson, Matthew Freud.
Sigmund Freud's work into the bubbling and murky world of the subconscious changed the world. By introducing a technique to probe the unconscious mind, Freud provided useful tools for understanding the secret desires of the masses. Unwittingly, his work served as the precursor to a world full of political spin doctors, marketing moguls, and society's belief that the pursuit of satisfaction and happiness is man's Adam Curtis's award-winning 2002 documentary for the BBC, The Century of the Self, pinpoints  Bernays Propaganda - Crystallizing Public Opinion Advertising   He felt this manipulation was necessary in society, which he regarded as irrational and dangerous as a result of the 'herd instinct' that Trotter had described.[2] Adam Curtis's award-winning 2002 documentary for the BBC, The Century of the Self, pinpoints Bernays as the originator of modern public relations, and Bernays was named one of the 100 most influential Americans of the 20th century by Life magazine.
Ayn RAND  The Fountainhead (1949)
An insanely uncompromising, visionary architect struggles to maintain his integrity and individualism despite personal, professional and economic pressures to conform to popular standards to the point of nihilism.
Director: King Vidor Writer: Ayn Rand (screenplay)
Stars: Gary Cooper, Patricia Neal, Raymond Massey
and also directed by King Vidor
Our Daily Bread (1934) -  a cooperative (socialist) utopian pipe dream

The Way to Vibrant Health: A Manual of Bioenergetic Exercises (Harper colophon books ; CN 542) by Alexander Lowen (Jun 1977)

The organizations that succeeds today and tomorrow will have turned on groups.
MASLOW ( Further Reaches of Human Behavior ) tells how Ruth Benedict was interested in cultures that promoted cooperation and ;team work , vs. those that were aggressive, cranky, and mean. Team work creates a level of high energy, creativity, focus, and joy.
The excitement and energy of groups is know to good leaders, teachers, coaches, and managers, everywhere and in all times. Organizations that can promote the formation and support of small, stable, focused groups.
These groups are and will be winners. This is the secret of Z organization, quality circles
(Deming), those who will thrive in the new world economy do so because of effective work groups.
These organizations are quick and flexible in the rapid changing market.

The concept of a story archetype of the standard "hero's quest" or monomyth pervasive across all cultures is somewhat controversial. Expounded mainly by Joseph Campbell in The Hero with a Thousand Faces, it illustrates several uniting themes of hero stories that hold similar ideas of what a hero represents, despite vastly different cultures and beliefs. The monomyth or Hero's Journey consists of three separate stages including the Departure, Initiation, and Return. Within these stages there are several archetypes that the hero or heroine may follow including the call to adventure (which they may initially refuse), supernatural aid, proceeding down a road of trials, achieving a realization about themselves (or an apotheosis), and attaining the freedom to live through their quest or journey. Examples of this formula can be found in modern stories such as The Lord of the Rings, The Matrix, and Star Wars. [11]

Richest 85 People Own As Much Wealth As Poorest 3.5 Billion: Oxfam


Do we agree that the planet earth is in real trouble?
The economy is in danger of a credit bubble and resource shortages, the political societies threaten by a billion unemployed, many are young men who are restless and without hope for the future, and the environment by climate change and pollution.
Do we believe that growth and technology will solve the problems?
Most of the benefits of growth go to the top 1%.
The costs of growth – sprawling city slums, congestion, stagnate per capital incomes, with a decline in the social well being of friends and families and increasing crime, drugs, gangs, corruption, as personal bonds are weakened from what it was in the villages and countryside. Look at Honduras – Mumbai (Bombay) Rio, Cairo, mega cities over 15 million.. growth is not producing jobs as technology replaces people, travel agents, print journalist, bank tellers, small shops and traders by the new enterprises which are capital and skill intensive, Walmart, Amazon as the supply chain has roots elsewhere. So are we not captives of false ideas from the past?
Both stimulus Keynesian demand side ideas and austerity supply side lower taxes are not working and can not work in the context of the real world.

“The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Little else rules indeed the world. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.” Lord Maynard Keyes, the British economist, who at the time he wrote was of course focused on unemployment.
Why synergy is required by the limited resources on a flat economic earth, where the population and environment can't take it any more.

Paying the price in a democratic society
http://www.weforum.org/issues/global-risks
In the age of enlightenment (16th,17th, 18th centuries) the ideology of a rational republic was the necessary replacement for the ancient medieval regimes that claimed divine powers for church and king. In the 20th century Franco claimed he was the leader of Spain by the grace of God and supported by the official church. La callados de España por la gracia de Dios as claimed by the royals before him.
The idea of the people did not include those without real estate property, women, blacks, peasants or 90% of the population. Since the new elites would be only 1 or 2% they would be outnumbered by the rest. The history of democracy in ancient Athens was a constant forgiveness of debt because there were more debtors than creditors. The clear and present danger was of “populism” attacking the wealth of the few by the demigods of the masses, and destroying the civic culture which is the foundation of a rational society and state. The people of property had the education, experience, judgment, to govern in the interest of the society as a whole. Or if they wanted to protect their property from the ravages of the masses they would have to provide a “social contract” that cooped and neutralized the working class.


The price of democracy paid by the rich to protect themselves from the poor is “social democracy”. The great example is Otto von Bismark's 1880's safety net of social insurance for the risks of unemployment, old age retirement, sickness or disability, and benefits from cradle to grave of free public education at all levels, along with subsidies for housing, transportation, utilities, post office and other price subsidies. The rich had to pay the cost directly in taxes or indirectly in lower profits from higher wages and costs of insurance.


Economist from Adam Smith, John Steward Mill, and classical theorist recognized the transfer costs as protection of wealth from popular democracy. The issue and problem today is the rich don't want to pay the cost and don't believe the wolf is at the door. This comes at a critical time as western economies have to adjust to slower growth and stagnant living standards due to the equalizing effects of globalization. Capital has no limits and high returns from a more open global market and a vast expansion of CREDIT now many times the value of “money” or currency because it is money in all effects and causes. Assets are monetized to be liquid so they can seek a higher rate of return and leveraged to produce 10X or more their value ROI as things.


So the rich get richer and the poor become restless. Large segments of wealthy people do not want to pay the cost of protection. They believe because of their skills in marketing that they can fool most of the people most of the time. Their has not been much of a market for populist demigods – the social contract is being rewritten in favor of the employers and landlords.


"The widening gap between rich and poor "raises concerns about the Great Recession and the squeezing effect it had on the middle classes in developed economies," the group said in its Global Risks 2014 report.


While a severe income disparity has taken place in the U.S. and other developed nations, globalization "has brought about a polarization of incomes in emerging and developing economies," the report said."

Economic imbalances and social inequality risk reversing the gains of globalization, warns the World Economic Forum in its report Global Risks 2012. These are the findings of a survey of 469 experts and industry leaders, indicating a shift of concern from environmental risks to socioeconomic risks compared to a year ago. Respondents worry that further economic shocks and social upheaval could roll back the progress globalization has brought, and feel that the world’s institutions are ill-equipped to cope with today’s interconnected, rapidly evolving risks. The findings of the survey fed into an analysis of three major risk cases: Seeds of Dystopia; Unsafe Safeguards and the Dark Side of Connectivity. The report analyses the top 10 risks in five categories - economic, environmental, geopolitical, societal and technological - and also highlights "X Factor" risks, the wild card threats which warrant more research, including a volcanic winter, cyber neotribalism and epigenetics, the risk that the way we live could have harmful, inheritable effects on our genes. Key crisis management lessons from Japan’s earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disasters are highlighted in a special chapter.

Guide to all and everything:
A poem of the hour to inform the mind, body and spirit soul of the good life in you. As all great art informs the mind and heart and soul beyond words and super-ego interference with false judgments and popular opinion.

The evolution inside us. On going embryology. We are still being made in a life long process from the womb to the tomb. Watch the tape 37 minutes and see the images, hear the words and evolve - it will release ancient passions, repressed feeling, pain and suffering since your birth - not loved, not cared for, rejected, abandoned and alone - see the light fade, hope gone, nothing but darkness and pointless - death is all around - but do  not go gently into that good night - suffer reconciliation - forgive yourself and others - not forgetting but letting go for goodness sakes. First passage into being awake. Second to nightmares and ghost from the dreamland.  Third to affirmation of  life itself, energy, electric, rousing life force let free.. let freedom ring - free at last we are free at last from the chains of fear, hate, envy, guilt, passion, sexual anxieties,  false ideas and old beliefs - for the great love of GOD of 99 names - we love the chaos of dark energy that is in us and we are in it - in the world but not of it - space is free and that is all we know or can ever know.

This site (see below) is designed to offer a liberal education for adults or students of all ages in social relations: Soc Rel includes psychology and social psychology, a base in institutional economics on how we earn our living as individuals, social classes, occupational categories, and organizations public and private. Anthropology, Sociology, political science, “history and geography” (both a social science and a humanity) are applications of rational thoughts about the subjects based on environment, resources, technology, and people's individual and collective minds, cultures, beliefs, habits, traditions, education, religions, etc...

ONE: In the social psychological model of color codes – BLUE and BROWN represent the present existence of human beings that evolved from millions of years ago – the OLD brain and ID, sub and unconscious forces very powerful in everyday life -   this is mostly in denial – and causes problems – survival needs – food, shelter, safety, hope.
As a species we started as hunters gathers in small packs, bands of clans, with their relatives in troops like other primates.  The first great transformation was to develop agriculture and animal husbandry enough that it created a surplus that supported cities and civilization: bureaucracies, armies, priest, rulers and trades with specialized skills. (7,000 years ago).  Civilizations formed empires out of tribes and “nations”  which are groups of clans and tribes. The modern use of NATION comes from the peace of Westphalia at the end of the 30 years wars in the 17th century. Each sovereign king, prince, or ruler had the right of territory and could make the rules in that land. (Catholic or Protestant) Empires were a collection of such “nations” or colonies ruled by the mother country. The rulers are land owners.

TWO: The second level yellow, red, black and white – are the characteristics of “modern civilization” resistance and reconciliation with civilization and its pleasures and its discontents. Popular psychology and marketing uses passions and desires, as needs and wants to produce the contented consumer and passive citizen. Death and resurrection are made into musicals and psychodrama.   The needs are social acceptance and status – maybe even love – ego and superego The age of SELF  
Since the end of the dark ages in the 13th cenotury (700 years ago) the WEST began to catch up with areas that were many years more developed. The Empire of China, India and SE Asia, Japan – the civilizations developed complex technologies (textiles, “china”, architecture, roads, boats, laws and administration, large armies, and imperial courts)   There developed in western Europe merchant adventures from Marco Polo to Sir Francis Drake. The city states of Holland, England and Italy developed banking, joint stock companies and insurance, muskets and canon with balls that fit, and navigation in long voyage boats. The second transformation and paradigm shift was to industrial conditions where more wealth was produced in trade than in farming.  The rulers are capitalist bourgeois.

Now until 70 years ago were more people earning a living in cities than in the country side. There are many parts of the world still undergoing masses of people moving from farm to town. The third great paradigm shift is from things to symbols, from material stuff to information process and knowledge. From skilled hands on to highly focused brains at work, the token economy, derivatives, collateral backed securities, etc. The rulers are in financial services.
