The Role of Intentions in our Lives

The main underlying topic for today's blog will be "intentions." Intentions are very important if you want to make changes in your life, and begin to take personal responsibility for it. Now, "intentions" have "a bad rap," and I think intentionally so because of their power to create your reality.

Take, for example the saying, "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions." Now, this sounds like one of those folk truisms, like, "A stitch in time saves nine," which, in general, are sound bits of experience, wrapped up in a neat phrase--things my Mother used to say, being part of the older generation, but maybe not your Mother.

Now, I grant you that many "good intentions" don't turn out as intended. We all know about: "I didn't intend for that to happen!", i.e., a disaster, because of bad planning on someone's part. The vast majority of what happens on a day-to-day basis people did not intend to have happen--at least not consciously. Those things happen, because the same "vast majority of individuals" do not really intend much of anything; things just happen as a result, and we automatically disavow any responsibility. In any case, you will not "go to Hell," because of them, but you may lose some friends. These are not the intentions I am talking about.

In creating your reality, the primary ingredients for manifesting--bringing something into the physical plane--are, 1) desiring something; 2) intending that it shall come to pass; and 3) expecting that it will be as you intend. This has been called "Magic." It is magic; the world is magic, if you believe it is.

You see, those who set up our system of indoctrination/programming know Magic is real and they also know how powerful humans really are.

The plan then, and still is:
1) To convince us humans that we are powerless to change our lives.
2) That Magic is just "superstition."
3) To keep in control by making you in fear of "sinning" through Religion.
4) Keeping you in fear of the future through created chaos, such as wars and crime.
5) Working your butt off to survive on a day to day basis.
6) To cripple many who might rebel against the system, through drugs, gangs and laws that fill prisons with the young and minorities .
7) And, for any free time you might manage, provide lots of meaningless entertainment and circuses, (sports) to keep you from having time to think about anything real.

Speaking of "real," Has it ever crossed your minds to question what TV offers as "reality shows"?

Over the last fifty-years-or-so, those who run the world, behind the scenes, have taken over ownership of all the major sources of information.

Formerly big publishing houses, have been taken over by large corporations which have consolidated their ownership into fewer and fewer hands; they determine what books are allowed to be published, (Fortunately, in recent years this monopoly has been cracked by small publishing houses springing up all over the place, as well as On Demand Publishing of books.)

Former major newspaper chains, have, themselves, also been bought up by Conglomerates; there are only a few independent newspapers left in this County; with very few metropolitan areas still having more than one newspaper.

The Federal Communications Commission, as a regulating agency, would be a joke, if its co-optation had not been deliberate in order to pass laws favorable to those who wish to have more power to indoctrinate everyone. After taking over, laws were changed to make it possible for Corporations and individuals to own, not only an area newspaper, but also a TV Channel and a Radio Station in one community.

This deliberate consolidation of the media has resulted in, at a guess, three giant radio conglomerates, (It's hard to keep track, as they keep gobbling each other up, and then spitting some parts out again, which are gobbled up by another one.} The small number of major TV Corporations, have almost total control over what appears on the Cyclops; with independent TV channels and radio stations continuing to be the stepchildren of these giant industries.

The major institutions of learning have been formed into a loose hierarchy, with the few at the top, with their high-ranking business schools, turning out those individuals who will be placed into powerful positions in the controlling conglomerates--now multinationals. What appears as facts in Textbooks is also controlled by the conglomerates who own the very-lucrative textbook industry. With the fairly recent advent of our Government's backing of its "No-child-left-behind program," they have increased the, already prevalent, preoccupation of our Nations schools with teaching to the tests. Why do you think it is that most textbooks are 40-50 years behind current knowledge in any given subject that is beyond the basics?

Do you think, even for a minute, that all this was not intended?

With that, I end today's blog.
