The Self in Slavery

To project our insecurities is to become caricatures of ourselves. We should not do this as individuals or as nations because when an entity projects an insecurity it becomes victimized and enslaved by other entities but when an entity projects it's own security it becomes adored and sought after by others.

There is an interesting result of this principle that has resulted in the world as it is today. Influential people bring people to them without much effort because it really is just too much trouble to do it the other way around. People gain influence over others by giving people what they WANT or promising to give them what they WANT. It's just really as simple as tapping into the desires of others. This often results in the wrong kinds of people gaining influence, meaning people that don't love us, primarily people other than ourselves! We are at fault and conditioned (by the natural world) towards seeking what we want and not what we need. It is a process we have to develop ourselves towards breaking out of. This is a metaphysical process then, to break out of the natural habits and desires we have the enslave us... If you are a slave, you aren't free obviously... But even if a slave were to be freed it would continue to be going after the things it wants, and not those that it needs. So slaves canot be freed. They can only free themselves.

The influential people who run this world know this and establish themselves through this principle. They feel no guilt from enslaving another... As Crowley himself declares in the second Chapter of Liber Al Vel Legis: "19. Is a God to live in a dog? No! but the highest are of us. They shall rejoice, our chosen: who sorroweth is not of us." What is unfortunate is that in doing so, this caricature nature expands throughout the spectrum. As Phil put it in How To Build A Universe That Doesn't Fall Apart Two Days Later, "Fake realities will create fake humans. Or, fake humans will generate fake realities and then sell them to other humans, turning them, eventually, into forgeries of themselves. So we wind up with fake humans inventing fake realities and then peddling them to other fake humans. It is just a very large version of Disneyland."

"And... the producers, scriptwriters, and directors who create these video/audio worlds do not know how much of their content is true. In other words, they are victims of their own product, along with us."

"They do not know what it means to be free."
