Hypothetically, imagine the rebirth of a former being into the human realm once more. This being has been yang for several rebirths so much so that it is reaching his perfection in this current existence. By the time this young person (referred to as “C”) was seven years old, his appetites were fixed, causing some concern to his parents. He was sent to a military school to teach him discipline. What he learned mostly in teamwork was how to manipulate behavior and to be resilient and adaptive. Lying instead of respect for authority became his tool. in his 20s, he followed the guidance of a mentor who taught him to visualize himself successful, even with disregard to the facts, and to hold tightly to that vision of success, a form of positive thinking.

For Master C, his inclinations were honed and his love of money got a lot of attention for the power it held, even to the point of trickery. Money became the grab bag of all endeavors to become a leader. Almost by accident, he began to take advantage of the illusion of perception, for it became more important than reality. It became his family’s motto to “don’t go out of the way to correct a false assumption if it plays to one’s advantage.” In time, a powerful and secretive club took note of his baronial presence in the field of existence–he knew how to cunningly control behavior and manipulate the illusions money and power for self gain. Just as his new colleagues, he mastered strategic decision-making and interactive behavior when his successes depend on the choices of others. In other words, game theory, especially payoff matrices to predict outcomes.

Fast forward to the era of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the 2017 when the AI boom initiated the development of transformer architecture to produce generative AI applications and large language models (LLMs). The science behind AI has revealed that the world/universe exists in our consciousness. The only thing that is real is consciousness. Everything that is material, which is subject to constant change (transformation) is not the universal consciousness, This universal consciousness is so vast that it manifests in so many permeations; and the elite classes and their master craftsmen want to understand it better so that they can control it and limit the masses from also understanding it.

For the purpose of this blog, a backstory begins in the late 17th-18th centuries.

The knowledge and wisdom of consciousness existed in teachings way before they were written down in the Vedic Upanishads, a collection of Sanskrit texts and commentaries (a period from circa 800 BCE to 300 BCE. (The Upanishads represent a layered tradition well into the 15th century CE,) In fact, consciousness from the beginning was synonymous with Shiva, later to be reified. Shiva was first mentioned in the Rig Veda, which was written around 1700-1100 BCE. Every move of the dance of Shiva was/is symbolic of creation, illusion, protection, and the crushing of ignorance by his feet. And so ignorance actually means not knowing or wanting to know one’s innate nature.

In recent times, however, consciousness became a commodity for the elite, since they view it as the secret that offers immortality, reincarnation, and godhood. As this awareness began to get more scientific focus in the late 19th century, back 50 years ago, artificial intelligence became a quest to gather existing knowledge and to eventually control its context and contents. Consciousness via metaphoric Shiva is the heartbeat of the cosmos itself. As a sidebar, The root words of śiva combines the meanings “in whom all things lie, pervasiveness” and the “embodiment of grace”.

We know that, when we participate in the universe, we can change perception within it. As we focus on it, the perception manifests as a reality. Whether the perception is one of greed or equanimity, it becomes a reality in itself. Thusly, the quanta of perception is the secret of the universes as the entity of consciousness. But when we feed information–whether it be fact, misinformation, malinformation, or neutral–it is gathered by AI from the World Wide Web. So, if there is a time when no more beneficial information is gathered by artificial platforms, can AI be controlled and manipulated by the rulers of AI designs to alter further the true nature of reality. The world we know exists in our consciousness. We need to understand this intrinsically.

Who are the elite historically? Basically, as defined by the Encyclopædia Britannica, the elite are “small groups of persons who exercise disproportionate power and influence. It is customary to distinguish between political elites, whose locations in powerful institutions, organizations, and movements enable them to shape or influence political outcomes, often decisively, and cultural elites, who enjoy a high status and influence in nonpolitical spheres such as arts and letters, philanthropy , professions, and civic associations. At the national level, political elites number only a few thousand persons in all but the largest countries, whereas the makeup of cultural elites is more indeterminate and turns on the nonpolitical spheres regarded as consequential in a society.” Consequently, they employ methods to make you believe in their powers. In reality, their only power is to manipulate us into believing they have such powers and are worthy of these powers exclusively. (All we have to do is recall how India created a social strata in ancient times–the Vedic ruling/priestly Brahmins on top, followed next by the Kshatriyas (warriors), Vaishyas (farmers/traders) , and the lowly Shudras (laborers). This division of roles has been around for a very long time).

Now comes Plato’s Cave, an allegory of consciousness, contributing to elite classes on how to manipulate their tools of deception: The allegory compares “the effect of education and the lack of it on our nature, which employs two analogies–the Sun and the Divided Line. Plato’s Cave is an apt metaphor that depicts prisoners who have been chained inside a very dark cave since birth and only got to see shadows cast on the wall of outside objects projected on the wall by the exterior fire. The cave represents their limited understanding of reality. When one prisoner manages to escape, he returns to the cave because the fire he saw up close hurt his eyes. Only when another but inquisitive prisoner escapes, he discovers that the shadows of the outside world were illusions. He returns to educate the others. As such the allegory illustrates the importance of education as a transformative power and to continue the struggle to understand deeper truths beyond mere appearances. Many humans continue to think sensory perceptions as reality when there is a fuller understanding of how true knowledge can be achieved through pure awareness of bounding philosophical reasoning and scientific evidence.

Though we live in a world where money, resources, power, religion, and the like that tend to lead to warm, in terms of material things being permanent, these materials are not reality. The real currency is not money and such; the real currency is human consciousness, the source of power itself. We need to remind ourselves that consciousness is what creates reality itself.

Indirectly, the message in the Book of Revelation underscores the search for permanence and the belief that the fight is between good and evil. The revelation continues to explain that all of humanity will be injected with devices in the forehead or right hand. Surely, to control our every move and thoughts: Those who side with the antichrist will be able to buy and sell things to meet basic needs, and God’s servants (note the word “servant”) will receive protection from the tribulation caused by the final Holy War. For what purpose? To measure our allegiance? Still not seeing reality from the sensory consciousnesses of form and the like (there are eight of them operating as one)?

Basically, our current existence with AI ultimately end up controlling “the soul of humanity, the end game”. Are we game, because the limitations of AI will also reveal AI as illusory? Will we wake up in time to self-liberate ourselves from those who want us to believe that the final war (a wish-fulfilling prophecy) is to save only the servants of God who are set apart from the “great multitude of believers from all nations” who will be permanently destroyed? Is the Book of Revelation another illusion by an elite, perpetuated further by religious elites?

Consciousness is used as a commodity, and it has been for some time. So, how would one play this game well? How does one become unconditioned?

If the doors of perception were cleansed, every thing would appear to [humanity], Infinite, for [humans] have closed [themselves] up until [they] can see all things [through] narrow chinks of his cavern . . . For everything that lives is holy. — William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell
