The Wizard

Wizard


"When such doctrines as these were openly aired by the highest authority in the realm, and who, in aired them, flattered, but did not force the public opinion, it is not surprising that the sad delusion should have increased and multiplied, until the race of wizards and witches replenished this good Earth." - Charles MacKay


The word wizard may come from the Persian word Wazir.

Wazirs belonged to the ruling classes of the civizations of Central Asia.

Wazirs were also called Tajik, men of the pen or wise men.

The term wizard is a bastard child of Wazir brought to the West by the knights of the First Crudsade and was typically bestowed upon men of learning, the Alchemists.







Life was forged in the valleys.

It blew up onto the hills on the old terrors, the old lusts.

You must walk up the hills so you can ride down.

We cannot choose freedom established on a hierarchy of

degrees of freedom
, on a caste system of equality.

To be free is not to claim freedom, but to practice it.





"Our tragedy today is a general and universal physical fear.

There are no longer problems of the spirit.

There is only the question: When will I be blown up?

The young man or woman writing today has forgotten the problems of the human heart in conflict with itself which alone can make good writing because only that is worth writing about, worth the agony and the sweat.

He must learn them again.

He must teach himself that the basest of all things is to be afraid.

Teaching himself to leave no room in his workshop for anything but the old verities and truths of the heart, the universal truths lacking which any story is ephemeral and doomed - honor and pity and pride and love and sacrifice.

Until he does so, he labors under a curse.

He writes not of compassion but of lust, of defeats in which nobody loses anything of value, of victories without hope, worst, without compassion.

His griefs grieve on no universal bones, leaving no scars.

He writes not of the heart but of the glands." - William Faulkner

Speech after receiving the Nobel Prize for Literature (10 December 1950)

John Steinbeck

Ten Year Apocalypse that Nearly Destroyed Midwestern America



There is a principle which is a bar against all

This I believe:

the free, exploring mind of the individual
is the most valuable thing on Earth
.

And this I would fight for:

freedom of the mind to take
any direction it wishes, undirected.

And this I must fight against:

any idea, religion, or government
which limits or destroys the individual.

This website defines a new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The author feels that the faλsification of reaλity outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religi☯us practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of philºsºphy nªmed the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on reaso🐍 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 pers∞nal relati∞n with the Æon through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the cu☮ing the spi☮itual co☮☮uption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate ¢rime."

This web site in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the vi☬lence that is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire to control the human race. The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the world economic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the global industrial military entertainment complex and is responsible for the coλλapse of moraλs, the eg● w●rship and the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation with bi☣hazards at the point of a gun.

American social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general through c✡rp✡rate media by press☟ng em☠ti☠nal butt☠ns which have been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior mass media psych☣l☣gical ☣perati☣ns. The results have been the destruction of the fami♙y and the destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra¢tion and coercion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
