"Today
abstraction is no longer that
of the map, the
double or the mirror.
Simulation is no longer that of
a territory,
a referential being, or
a substance.
It is
generation of models of The Real without origin or
a hyperreal
reality.
The territory no
longer precedes the map, nor
does it survive it.
It is nevertheless the map that precedes the
territory - precession of simulacra - that engenders the territory, and
if one must return to the
fable, today it is the territory
whose shreds slowly rot across the extent of the map.
It is the
real, and not the map, whose vestiges persist here and there in the deserts
that are no longer those of the Empire, but ours.
The desert of the
Real itself." - Baudrillard
The human mind samples reality in slices
like the frames in a celluloid film.
The human mind receives a huge
amount of information from the surrounding environment through the
21 or more senses.
One of
the most beautiful things of the mammalian mind is its
ability to filter out extraneous
irrelevant information unlike an artificial intelligence.
The mammalian mind is
designed to focus on those qualities in the environment that are relevant to
continued biological existence.
Conversely
the mammalian mind may
see those only those things
in the culture it has been
trained to focus
upon.
The Real is shorthand for actual reality unmitigated by
abstract concepts, symbols
and descriptions.
The Real cannot
be described and
can only be known
through experience.
The best example of an introduction to the Real
comes through a prolonged
immersion in Nature.
Some people discover the Real when
they have a near death experience.
The Real has been
experienced by every human in infancy.
Hyperreality is a
cultural overlay that replaces
the natural
biologically based thought patterns of the Real as
the growing living human mind
conforms.
The Real may be rediscovered in maturity through
various
methods.
"Copies and
replicas, for Baudrillard, no longer represent the Real.
In the process of
simulation, the
distinction between the real and representation collapses and dissolves
away.
All that is left is the simulacrum itself.
In the
rise of cinema and television, people come to experience almost human-like
experiences through artificial simulations.
Blood occurs in cinema and
television much more often than in real life.
It is a simulation that
blurs that of what is real.
Real blood looks redbrown and thick;
cinematic blood red and fluid.
Cinematic blood becomes more real than
the Real." - Youssef Benmaniyar

HER LAW
Nothing happens
in NATURE which
can be
attributed to a flaw in
Nature.
It is in accordance with HER LAW
that
all things transform
from one
form to another and yet are always
and everywhere
the same
substance.

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective with which to engage reality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the falsification of reality outside personal experience has
forged a populace unable to discern propaganda from reality and that this has
been done purposefully by an international corporate cartel through their
agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reality on the human race.
Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious
practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their religious ideology. This
web site marks the founding of a system of philosophy named The Truth of the
Way of the Lumière Infinie - a rational gnostic mystery religion based
on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme
leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is
encouraged to develop a personal relation with the Creator and Sustainer
through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality in the hope of curing the
spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of the
Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to their
religious beliefs in America is considered a "hate crime."
This web site
in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the
violence that is already occurring due to the international corporate cartels
desire to control the human race. The international corporate cartel already
controls the world economic system, corporate media worldwide, the global
industrial military entertainment complex and is responsible for the collapse
of morals, the elevation of self-centered behavior and the destruction of
global ecosystems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation
does not occur at the point of a gun.
American social mores and values
have declined precipitously over the last century as the corrupt international
cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to
deceive the populace in general through corporate media by pressing emotional
buttons which have been preprogrammed into the population through prior
corporate media psychological operations. The results have been the destruction
of the family and the destruction of social structures that do not adhere to
the corrupt international elites vision of a perfect world. Through distraction
and coercion the direction of thought of the bulk of the population has been
directed toward solutions proposed by the corrupt international elite that
further consolidates their power and which further their purposes.
All
views and opinions presented on this web site are the views and opinions of
individual human men and women that, through their writings, showed the
capacity for intelligent, reasonable, rational, insightful and unpopular

may or may not have originally presented the facts truthfully. Opinion and
thoughts have been adapted, edited, corrected, redacted, combined, added to,
re-edited and re-corrected as nearly all opinion and thought has been
throughout time but has been done so in the spirit of the original writer with
the intent of making his or her thoughts and opinions clearer and relevant to
the reader in the present time.
