Pandora’s Box

While not the only source of the present demented vision through which women are seen and valued by far too many individuals, including, it is sad to say, many women themselves, the myth of Pandora’s Box is typical of the “jacket” that has been constructed and put on women and the Feminine Principle over many eons. Many of these ancient myths, including the myth of  Prometheus are more than likely remnants of the Ancient Teachings. However, they have, in my estimation, been twisted and manipulated by the long present Retrogressors to serve their deeply evil ends.

“Certain units of humanity—then existent—[the end of the first Solar system] were so completely conditioned by these material principles and so deliberately unready for moving on to the comprehension of another set of principles (more expressive of the divine nature) that they remained of "fixed and selfish material purpose" and a planned distortion of the divine will was intelligently created by them.  …  Forget not that the black magicians of today were the initiates of a previous solar system.” The Rays and Initiations  p. 350

It continues to amaze me that the interpretations of so many of the ancient myths, including Genesis, spin around the core thoughtform of a God who is an angry psychotic, a hate filled Alpha Male of untold age who expected unquestioning and immediate acquiescence to his slightest whim, no matter how absurd it was. OR ELSE!!!

Oh God said to Abraham, “Kill me a son”

Abe says, “Man, you must be puttin’ me on”

God say, “No.” Abe say, “What?”

God say, “You can do what you want Abe, but

The next time you see me comin’ you better run”

 Bob Dylan Highway 61 Revisited

Can you imagine a God who would demand one of his people to kill one of  his sons to prove that he was loyal or that he loved God? This thoughtform of God persists and is even more wide spread today than the occasional mentions from ancient times. It is not a coincidence, for example, that a primary method of forcing children to serve as soldiers in wars in many nations, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Uganda, Sudan, just to  name a few, is to have the child kill his father to show allegiance and loyalty to the recruiting powers.

It is also not a coincidence that this insane male personage would choose women, in this case the arch type of Pandora, to be the carriers of his demented punishments such as disease, plague, starvation. As I see it, many of the interpretations of the myths and tales of our ancient past were deliberately “planted” and ceaselessly nurtured over thousands of Ages in the human psyche as a part of “a planned distortion of the divine will”. Once planted, there were many infant humans who accepted these distortions as truth and ignorantly applied them to, well, just about everything.

The effort of the original planters was to destroy the fundamental principles of Cosmic Truth which are basic building blocks of this or, I suppose, any other planet. Their intention was and is to maintain absolute domination of this planet as their personal property.

Hence, we have the “Myth” of Pandora’s Box. The use of the word “box” instead of womb is probably due to some later fastidious allusion to the womb. Yet in today’s culture it only serves to denigrate women that much more.

Nothing in years has so highlighted the existence of this controlling core thoughtform of an angry psychotic, hate filled Alpha Male God who expects unquestioning and immediate acquiescence to his slightest whim, no matter how absurd, than the bill signed into law just the other day by the Governor of Virginia. This bill requires women who want to have an abortion to have an ultrasound and be offered a picture of the ultrasound by the doctor. This piece of sophistry, by the way, is a watered down version of the bill which originally required the woman to submit to what is nothing less than an officially sanctioned rape by a mechanical device called a vaginal probe.

I won’t go into the absurdity of the contraception issue. The inability of an individual of any sex to see the gross stupidity of this issue is a sure indicator of a member of the walking dead.

Today there are 450 bills concerning birth control and abortion on the floors of mostly white male dominated legislatures across this country. If this wasn’t so outrageous, it would be just ridiculous. However, it is real. We cannot make this stuff go away by ignoring it. It is because we have ignored it for so long that it is here now. People are fond of saying, “Live in the Now!” Well, this is the Now which we allowed to happen while we were asleep in our cemeteries of comfort.

For our sisters our children, our daughters and wives who are having to live with it, it is happening now in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. There is only one way to finally kill this ancient thoughtform of a psychotic male god, to end the denigration of the Feminine Principle and restore the balance to our beautiful Planet. That way is to follow the path of justice and honor, to stand up, become responsible, to speak our Truth through our voice, in a word, to vote our hearts.

Truly, friends, we have nothing else to do.
