The phoenix rises from the ashes. This metaphor is pervasive and I think used by ancient cultures both for good and evil.

"Science" as we know it today is not a purist ideology in any regard. It's a culture, a psychology, a meme. It doesn't have a root philosophy. It's a shit-hole of enslaver programming and capitalist nonsense.

But the ideal of "science" as we envision in the common mind, I think, can still be salvaged. The main problem is this dark burden of transcending psychological horror. Not "above" it. Through it.

Let me get past airy philosophizing and be more literal.

Powerful, well-paid groups, allover the world, are abducting your children in large number; Raping and violently torturing them, with base and crude barbarism. That's of course a small example. The masses are unconsciously "trauma bonded." The reality of this creates a disconnect. We don't want to hear it so we try to ignore. And then our curiosity is unconsciously drawn to it, so we platform exactly those responsible for the abuse, and give them a whole celebrity identity. No different from the abused captive who thinks that her abductor is really just a sex partner and they have their "differences" but they're working out the kinks. I've seen how it works, it's messed up. But just covering this fact isn't good enough for real knowledge. You have to understand what are they getting out of it? Are there physical properties? Is there a network that organizes all of this? How does the network operate? Is it connected to aerial phenomena that transports things beyond 23,000 km per hour?

The educational system and the massive corrupt "parenting guide" of the mainstream is conditioning everyone to lack a childhood secure attachment. What you end up with is a functional adult that is able to carry out tasks and yet deep down realizes that if they attempt a genuine pursuit of knowledge, they might not survive. They might truly be mentally too unstable and kill themselves at these realizations. They would not be wrong to realize the risk.

What is needed is a process that is both "light" then "dark" - in the exact reverse of what is commonly "dark" then "light".

In dark to light - The children are raised by parents whom are ineffibly frustrated, tortured by the mires of a pathetic society, rugged by their constant struggle for survival, and this deep desire to instill within their own children the idea that life is cruel, and survival is a struggle, and they must be rugged as well in order to survive. It starts with leaving them to "sleep train" by crying alone in the crib for entire nights. Rushing them to school and making sure they get oriented into fast data-crunching in order to be competitive in the slave market. But that process by itself would not make for a stable society. So it gets buttered over by happy holidays, and funny cartoons, and 2 week vacations.

So we must instill the opposite.

Light to dark - A childhood of stability. Of loving parents, of certainty that the universe is one of abundance, and that the core of their being is a kind of omnipotence and benevolence. And that the parent, another ISBE, has probably known the child many lifetimes over, and is bonded to them through so many experiences that they would die, even risk another death trap game, to get their child free. The parent would, by the modern scum's definition "spare the rod and spoil the child"

And then one day, when the child has had much time to think, and even vent the violent anger that they are no doubt expressing by some deep recessed unrealized memory of the lifetimes of horrendous abuse they've endured . . . the child is finally . . . introduced to a reality. One so dark and depressing that no one is really sure to overcome. You are in hell. This is hell. It is a chasm, where some of the most ancient studies have gone into trapping you into an endless torture where you can be recycled, and lied to, and made to serve. And they're not done with you. They want to make you a skeloton of your former self - a faceless drone. And as long as there are still flowers, and waves, and butterflies . . . you will not question.

But then we get to the real work.

There are so many secrets to pursue, and a knowledge that is rooted in both hard evidence and spiritual epiphany. It's not truly hidden, just quietly tucked away. And its application can let you do things. Measurable things that you can show off to friends. But you won't get there if you don't first accept the dark realities. The beauty is there, if you can just get past the swamp.

This is why so many cling to the channelers and the Oprahs and the "everything is already done for you you just have to accept" organized religious doctrines. Not because they are stupid inherently (if on the outset). But because they grew up the wrong way around. They went from dark to light instead of light to dark. We might look at them as soulless, lifeless. We would be right to think they've been shoved deep into a box where they're hard to recognize. But I think they just grew up the wrong way around.

If you read these words, you're not one of those dark to light. Somehow, even in your childhood trauma, nature in this life awarded you some process of light to dark. You found a stability of some kind, and had the time to get curious. Unfortunately that's partly bad news for you. Your responsibility just went from "your job is to get through life and keep a decent family together" over to "you're one of the few to wake up an entire planetary civilization. No, it's not your president or pope or dad. It's you. If you don't do it, it is indeed largely your fault that everyone is stuck here. But if you do it, history will know eventually how much of a hand you had to play in all of it."
