Natural Law - Problem solving, Truth and Conciousness | #natural Law
Some definitions needed before we go forward. Natural Law is something that is misunderstood by many and unknown by most. I'll be adding to this list as I go forward but wanted to start it now, bookmark for reference.
Arcana - mysterious or specialized knowledge, language, or information accessible or possessed only by the initiate (Merriam Webster)
Lesser Arcana – knowledge of the small things, of human consciousness, the
individual. A little world.
Major Arcana – knowledge of the large things, the macro-cosmic, the great world or
universe, a complex that is a large-scale reproduction of one of its constituents
Esoteric – designed for or understood by the specially initiated alone (Merriam Webster)
Exoteric – suitable to be imparted to the public (Merriam Webster)
Ignorance – from the latin verb ignorare – to not know even though necessary information is present, because that information has been willfully refused or disregarded.
Knowledge – the fact or condition of knowing something with familiarity gained through experience or association. The sum of what is known, the body of truth, information, and principles.
Natural Law – a body of law or a specific principle held to be derived from nature and binding upon society in the absence/addition to positive law. Merriam Webster

There are 3 things required to move forward. On both a collective and individual level.
1.Knowledge
2.Understanding
3.Action
I would ask that you read this with your focus on the collective level to start.
At our current place in time, we are arguably drowning in information. It is everywhere, on
every topic. Pick a problem area, money, child trafficking, war, corruption, division,
compliance, fake news. Information is freely available on all of these topics that will allow you to gain knowledge on what is happening.
Go back to my previous thread on the Trivium to see how to turn information into knowledge.
The fact is, humanity is still in the grip of a consensus trance, hypnosis if you would prefer.
This is the sleep that is referred to by those that are in the process of awakening. When the information is widely available, the knowledge that it represents, becomes occulted.
Why is knowledge occulted? To create and maintain a power differential. Natural Law
governs human behavior. The occulting of this information allows those that know how
natural law or consciousness works (human motivations, perceptions, manipulation), to create and maintain a power differential between the few and the many.
The knowledge of natural law and its operations constitutes the most deeply occulted
information on earth. The “powers that be” seek to keep this hidden from the people of earth at all costs, because its understanding would level the playing field and put an end to the currently entrenched systems of control.
We, as humanity, are not nescient. In the past, perhaps we were when information was not available. Now however, we are willfully ignorant.
The good news is that truth is always present. The question is, will we perceive it,
acknowledge it, and then do something with it. Knowledge is required, Understanding is
required and lastly Action is required.
Thus far I have touched on the Trivium and Teachability.
Next, I need to draw your attention to something that people dismiss and acknowledge at the same time. The principle of controlling human perceptions. This will be a
long, but necessary one.
I know that many have heard stories of “mind control”, “MKUltra”, and many nefarious
schemes. I would ask you to set this aside for the moment and consider advertising and
smoking. Simple and considered benign, advertising is the ideal place to start when looking at how information is shaped, why it is shaped, and methods used to achieve a predetermined outcome.
Edward Bernays (1891-1995) was known as “the father of public relations”. The nephew
Sigmund Freud. he authored may books, most notably;
Crystallizing Public Opinion (1923),
Propaganda (1928),
Public Relations (1945), and
The Engineering of Consent (1955).
Research him on your own, he was a fascinating human being. In 1929 he was hired by the American Tobacco Company to help eliminate the social taboo against women smoking. I am quoting now from the Wikipedia article on this;
“In 1929 Bernays decided to pay women to smoke their “torches of freedom” as they walked in the Easter Sunday Parade in New York. This was a shock because until that time, women were only permitted to smoke in certain places such as in the privacy of their own homes. He was very careful when picking women to march because “while they should be good looking, they should not look too model-y” and he hired his own
photographers to make sure that good pictures were taken and then published around the
world.
Feminist Ruth Hale also called for women to join in the march saying, “Women! Light
another torch of freedom! Fight another sex taboo!” Once the footage was released, the
campaign was being talked about everywhere, the women’s walk was seen as a protest for equality and sparked discussion throughout the nation and is still known today. The targeting of women in tobacco advertising led to higher rates of smoking among women.”
A couple of things come out of this. Bernays used the movement towards emancipation of
women as an emotional hook, paid women to smoke at the parade and publicised this. It is a simple, and brilliant, example of using emotional manipulation to achieve a desired outcome.
So why spell all of this out? Because as you research, in the Grammar and Logic steps of the Trivium, you will discover an urge to ignore certain sources of information. Some of your sources will actively encourage you to ignore others. You need to be aware that manipulation of information exists and learn to recognise it.
Its purpose, I would argue, is to limit what people may come to understand.
In my last post I discussed the Trivium. It is the classical form of learning and information discovery. In my first post in that thread I mentioned that the point is to improve yourself and one of the ways to do that is to start to monitor yourself as you start to explore information. This allows you to identify where you are (at the moment) on the teachability scale.
When faced with learning something new, most people adopt a mindset somewhere between arrogant and naïve. We assume that the person talking to us has nothing of value to say (arrogant), or we assume their authority and believe everything they say (naïve). Between these polar opposites are cynical, skeptical, teacher, student, trusting and gullible.
The ideal mind frame for learning is midway between teacher and student. It is quite natural to trend towards skeptical when presented with something you have never seen, much the same as one may move towards trusting when reviewing material that you are familiar with.
This is all normal and fine, but I would ask one thing of you. If you find that your mindset is moving beyond these parameters, in either direction, stop your exploration of the subject for the moment. At the very least, be aware that your ability to objectively learn is beginning to diminish.
The first steps in improving yourself is to begin to pay attention to your physical self, your emotions, and your thoughts.
