Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun

Chinese charater for the respect of nature

Walking

A man is rich in proportion to things he can afford to let alone.

Seek to dispel delusion and all that is false.

Transcendental spiritual truths are revealed through nature.

Create a deliberate wakefulness to the essential facts of life.

A mystical, spiritual discipline is essential for attainment of an inner clarity.

The divine source of all things exists in nature.

Yet divine reality is not exhausted by nature.

There exists within each human being a moral sense, a rational sense and an intuitive capacity for spiritual truths.

The search for ultimate reality begins with simplification and with the desire for clarity of vision and spiritual alertness.

There will never be a free and enlightened State until the State comes to recognize the individual as a higher and independent power, from which all its own power and authority are derived, and treats individuals accordingly.

Boléro

We saunter toward the Holy Land, till one day the sun shall shine more brightly than ever he has done, shall perchance shine into our minds and hearts, and light up our whole lives with a great awakening light, as warm and serene and golden as on a bankside in autumn.

The morning, the most memorable season of the day, is the awakening hour.

Morning is when I am awake and there is a dawn in me.

Then there is least somnolence in us; and for an hour, at least, some part of us awakes which slumbers all the rest of the day and night.

Little is to be expected of that day to which we are not awakened by our own newly acquired force and aspirations from within, accompanied by the undulations of celestial music, instead of factory bells.

A fragrance fills the air with a higher life than we fell asleep from; and thus the darkness bear its fruit, and prove itself to be good, no less than the light.

All memorable events, I should say, transpire in morning time and in a morning atmosphere.

To him whose elastic and vigorous thought keeps pace with the sun, the day is a perpetual morning.

It matters not what the clocks say or the attitudes and labors of men.

Moral reform is the effort to throw off sleep.

Millions are awake enough for physical labor; only one in a million awake enough for effective intellectual exertion, only one in a hundred millions to a poetic or divine life.

To be awake is to be alive.

I have never yet met a man who was quite awake.

We must reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aids, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn, which does not forsake us in sleep.

I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by a conscious endeavor.

It is something to be able to paint a particular image, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.

Every man is tasked to make his life, even in its details, worthy of the contemplation of his most elevated and critical hour.

That government is best which governs least.

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary.

I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the Earth; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it.

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 central banking 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.
