mmoving beyond perception of ´physical development to a spĂ­ritual one.

There is a song that says, burn in the spriritual fire, not the physical one.
I think just about everybody gets this.
So what I want to move into as a topic of discussion, is how we discuss not only our own individual psychological development, but our societies. I move to discuss the reality of the creation of society.
First of all, we must become conscious of the supra development. In any case, what I mean , is that as we advance in society as a society , calling it globalization, whatever you like, we are entering into movments of huge psychological bearing.
We must use the individual opsycholgiical creation as an a exmaple,. For now, we know it is not a creation and then that is it. We know that as people we have to continually grow. So that is the same perception we need toward society.
One thing I have noticed in analyzing development, is that people tend to need to become conscious of their process to advance to a new stage of maturity. The how of life seems to be integral to the question. And creation becomes continuos therefore. A constant rolling ball. A snowball even. life never stops.
So that is how we must perceive society. Adesrie to return to the way things were is a sign that yes we do need to review heistoyr, but probably we are tyring to thicken our root because we are trying to expand our branches.
So as all these countries. well, the US and Mexico who in their crises make a cry for return to a past , thus except arabs ones, who consciensciously and bravely are forming new frontiers. Thank you!!! Thank you!! if we haven´t said so yet, yet imitation is the highest form of flattery!!:) try to return to whatever state of peace they imagine they once had, we need to realize that actually we need to advance to a new level of integration of idea. idea of how society is creted. constantly. ina one on one , walkie talkie real time converstain kind fo way. Tehre is no comfort of thinking . oh it is made. we were cre

the COnquest..before and after

We want to grow as if the Conquest never happened. Atleast 1/2 of our identity, if not more is because we live on this Continent. So its history prior to the world discovery of it, seems highly important at some point. Perhaps at first for the Colonist, (uniquely called that by USA and perhaps Canada, and called Conqueror by the rest of America) it seemed unimportant . It might have even seemed intimidating, given that it was a war between the factions to gain the land and wealth. But now that we have entered into an era of relative peace, we have liberated blacks from slavery, we have become to think the natives are cute and we have them on postcards . We do ethnic things. Whatever that means., But we, as humans, are worth more than that. And the day we all value ourselves more, we will look into history and value it. Perhaps it is seeing different combination. New complexities. I personally think that Mexico would do well to finally move away from the shadow, the doubts, the superiority complex of the European Conquerors. They will never be free truly on their own land unless they do that. And since the White man is here to stay, it would be incumbent on him and quite nice for the rest of the world, if this identity became finally a part of the Continent.
The ethnic people of Mexico, (which is basically everyone, and simply some ends of the spectrum are more native and more in touch with those native ways), are not of European values in everything. Thus when the US and Europe make comments like ¨ Islam and the West¨ for example, I cringe at how they get this leverage at using this entire Continent to back up their value system. Come on. Just go to Mexico. Just learn any basic history and you know , the US and thus Europe, has very few similar values to Mexico or anyone from this Contintent. In fact, the history of the US National Interest, is to be just that , concerned only for themselves on this continent, and at times at the expense of the good livelihood of others. It´s not a pretty picture. Also, its always been a war of values between Europe adnthe natives here. So hwy this ¨west¨terminology as to value systems. I take offense that a Mexicans view shoudl be lumped into a USA ers whiois jsut a European immigrant value system mindste here on American soil. It´s not merica. Nor is it the saem values as Europe.
I cry when I think of how the US has treated many nations here in Latin America. And what is interesting is that what truly differentiates us is not which European language came here , (thus calling us latin because of Spanish) but that we here have native blood which has nothing to do with Spanish. So actually USA people who have no heritage here are more Latin american because they have latin in the language English, and they are English. Some. Many.More than the people they call latin americans. They are mexicas, zapotecas , mayans, not latins. The native languages have nothign to do with latin. So basically the term latin america is yet another way to just keep things on the superfical note. Thinking of America only as in prior to the Conquest.
Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera represent a time when the return to appreciating the native aspects of life took on more force. That was awhile back. So you can imagine how things have snowballed. Temazcales (sweat lodges), traditional medicine, and other things typical to the natives are coming back in full force. So is history. (it´s funny how it always does).When people grow organically by pulling up from their roots, what will the US do? And how will they do what all continents and the globe is doing, which is organizing ourselves more, as in continents and systems? The US seems to think people organize themselves based on ideas, because that is what they have done so far . However they fail to realize that in nature people also have an organization based on geographical needs and just obvious community.
However the US is aloof to the community of America. They have chosen to always think Europe is better, and thus their national interest is based on this. Also their policies and laws have always been as if they were better, and not in humble coordination with America. How are we supposed to do this In America if we are having a member of the continent so unpliable to the whole?
How does this affect the world sense of wholeness as well?
Let´s admit it. For whatever purposes, (Manifest Destiny) (or whatever grand plan) the US developed faster without having to bring the natives along into the fold. (obviously this helped their rapid growth). However now they are facing the reality that as well sort of come together as a community, all of its neighbors did!!! it´s like oops! Surprise! We didn´t have to eliminate them to grow. So now, yes mexico and other countries want to compete with the world. Yet the world never l really got to know Mexico did it? Nor did it get to know Peru or Columbia,. It´s all been about the US getting involved in European commerce and finance, without any values or perspective on America, and just making THE USA marketing, resource wealthy tool for Europe. Obvioulsy, only the elite of Latin American countries did this. (All tying into a European value structure). (Let´s remember Europeans brought over the value of the institiutions that run America such as education models, financial institutions and government.
All of the other people were worried about attending to things that were always of concern here. Prior to the Conquest. So we have gotten away from ourselves. Wasn´t, and isn´t it important now? Aren´t we glad we didn´t abort all of the natives? Now we see that in the US and thereby EuropĂ©´s quest for gold and dignity and pomp and circumstance, using America for such ends, they now have no soul? Whereas Mexico and other countries who spent so much time out of Wall Street and in their homes making altars to the dead and picking fruit and taking care not to waste lights or water...shouldn´t the ¨development¨ of that culture mean something to us today? Shoudn´t we the US finally adapt to the land we came to? It didnt´come to us. We act so entitled to it. We would never walk into China, take land, expect the people to just quit their culture and do what we do, would we? Andthen call theri contintal value system teh same as ours. islam adn the WEst. What a joke. Yes emrica was conquered by Europeans. That in no way means we think the same or feel the same about values. That is just ghastly to even think of.
Yet, that is what we continue to be on this Contintent. To all people and countries who have any involvement with natives which almost all of America except Canada and the US. Relegated to seomthing less. So honestly , those two countires are in the vast minority on this continent. Their identity no longer needs to be fought for in a cowboy and indian kind of way. We need to get away from those paradigms so we can have true peace and prosperity on this land.
And if you think Some US laws and involvement in Latinamerica don´t sometimes cock block their true economic development, think again. But that is zero sum game mentality. Hillary Clinton talks a bit or a lot about zero sum game. Why doesnt´she or anyone for that matter apply it to the US in America? hahah funny huh howa s aworld we still haven´t fully perceived America. We still have nebulous ideas about what the people of here are really about. It´s time . It´s time to get to know. And let them be free. When they have given us so much freedom with their amazing ways of living, then we can atleast give the people who taught us freedom on this land,(just by living here!) to be able to be free coexisting with us. (That means repecting their ways).
The least we can do, is no longer give them an inferiority complex, by learning to live with class. Class meaning, we can coexist with different traditions. And then maybe we can do that with the rest of the countries of the world. The US is so proud of its different traditions, but that is all play. Let´s do it in the real world. Not just upon US playground where really everything is still dominated by European values. Let´s treat natives, and arabs, and blacks and chinese and all the people the US claims to be so equal to, let´s do that in the real world. Playing with continents, and organic structures. Not under the controlled system that is the US.
So we look at Frida Kahlo art, so we listen to Andean music ahahahahahahahaha!
Let´s do everyone a favor and get real.
However, I do realize it´s compicated. But let´s atleast be there. Be there in the idea. Arrive. Don´t holdback. Be bold. Boldness has genius, magic and power.

women-mujeres-stuff-cosas

Did you guys know, usted sabia, that the Pill, yes the anti- conception one, isn´t good for you on some levels? Ironically, on some basic levels. Hmm, so the pill gave women the power to be free about sex, but it takes away their testoterone. A hormone very very necesary for their aggression.
hmmm
how ironic.
What does saving beauty mean? I guess it is a take from Stealing Beauty, a movie from the 90´s with one of my favorites....Liv Tyler. More for what a cool girl she is, not so diva i love her because I met her in a European country and she was a darling. I also met her Dad in Boston..anyway he was awesome. Cool.
So with that intro..hahah I guess I am elitist. Without being one. You know_ It´s the right combination. Today we have too many clowns. Too many people wanting to buy Dior keychains to say they have something Dior, when Dior excellence is for their CLOTHES. What idiots. Who CARES about a keychain that says DIOR! Give me a break. But those are the times. We need to learn the forms. We need to learn to give. The US is so intent and thus so filled, with hungry, hungry for WHATEVER people! It is getting crazy. But let´s take a minute. A minute of calm. Here from Mexico. The place that is more America than the place who calls themselves egoistically by the name of the whole Continent, could ever be!!!
It seems like in the US, also because there are so many immigrants, thus people not from America, they will never at all in that country , be as American on any level as they are in Mexico.
That is why I want to teach Forms in Mexico,. Their future is so much brighter for those concerned with real form. The years they have passed creating life between the indigenous and the European ways, has made for a very vibrant , interesting, cosmic future, They can learn goverment. They can learn history. So that is much easier, than the opposite would be to have to teach Style to the US dwellers, who are constantly new, changing, and never in synch. No. That would be waste of time. So I prefer to work with Mexico.
Besides, as a new thing I have. an addition to Descartes: So you think therefore you are? How about, you are what you source says you are. And the Mexican source is real, root, thick, unmistakeable . Here. Now. Thanks to having ancestor on this land, Mexico has a source that is purifying and unifiying.
I Iwill teach them Aristotle, and along the way I will teach them how Aristotle came to be appreciated in Europe , through Islamic Spain. (this is knowledge not given to White people). (it keeps up the crusade and Islam at war when we should be at peace by now). And I will teach the Cold War, and the political theories of the day, and I will make them active in the world theatre.
So watch World, Mexico is coming to life.!!!
The beauty of true Form is still plausible here In Mexico. Thus, we must save beauty from the Ugly American that has taken over the times. Ugly? Why? Because, this species (USA) has no knowledge of its source. No knowledge of what it pertains to. Where does it live? What land does it inhabit? How much did it take it for, and How, in what way? What happend to the people previously inhabiting? (And that includes the rest of the Continent. Which changes the commonly given answer of, oh they are gone!! Haha Guess what? In the rest of the Continent they aren´t. Oops the white's anihilation of the natives of America didn´t happen too well. hahahah And now these people, i.e. Mexicans , can and will serve the rest of the future to remind them of that. I mean, why did the US think we (all America) could just forget, especially when we are mixed in with that blood? I mean, they/the US/ don' t forget 9/11 right? So why should they expect any different?9/11 really served to help the US feel how people feel when you attack them, when you destroy them, when you seek to be totally against all hat they stand for. Much like the White European in the US treated the native. The Spanish Conquistador, while brutal, wasn' t only that way, and had ambivalent sides to approaching the Aztecs, who had a great Empire.
What were the ancestors? What did they believe? How do their words and songs heal? How do their words and songs make us be whole? Is being part of a planet and feeling part of it necessary? I feel like just the need to ask that is silly. But perhaps the Ugly American type has served to beg the question. And once asked, it is so obvious. Obviously we functionalize to belong to a planet! Obviously we eat, sleep dream to feel its nature! Why go against it?
Why try to act like all the races coexist in one country , -like in the US- untrue to their roots! Why try to act like we are united in some weird , idyllic place! When that has shown to now be true! There is more racism in places like that!
God made us to live together but to also understand form and function! He made us with different geographies in mind. While that doesn[t limit usto living htere forever, at all, it does show how humans are conencte d materially to land. We need to understand how are cultures, colors and beliefs have to do with the land we inhabit! Thus , European on this land really have to start to learn about the native msyticisms, the native knowledge about plants and animals, and the respect this land requires. It´s time. There is no future for the planet with a country that keeps thinking a free ride is in order. It will only continue to wreak havoc on the world. It is a powerful combination a lot of land, resources, freedom( from the rules of their ancestry and tradition) . Yet wehre is the rulles of the land they now inhabit? Should we let them , as Real Americans, keep treating this Continent like they do? No, we cannot let this go on. They now need to assimilate this Continent for real. And I specificlaly say this to Muslims, who are the most keenly aware of this process. That is, the process of what the US is doing to the world by showing how they acquire things. It isn´t correct. We must be true to our source. We are what our source says we are. Does the US know their source?
If we ever hope for a change, it is here. Where people have grown wanting to live with style, not just to have food for all, but connecting how they get food with who they are, how they work, how they live, what they do, how they love. Just the way they do in all other countries except the US. The US chose to fulfill the basics first, by whatever means necessary , basically.
That for the time being has been the most genius thing they have done! Yes, because in traditional cultures, i.e. all other countries on Earth, tradition tends to hold people back from basic things like Eating! (yes. It might seem weird to a USA-er, however yes, that is what culture, history and ancestry do. they make you live within a form, a lifestyle. That is what values means. Sometimes it isn't good. It's dumb. So society doesn't grow. That is why the US became so popular. It let people grow and disregard tradition.
However, the tides are changing, and people are beginning to question whether it so great an idea to just act like history doesn't matter. Isn't it actually just an act for awhile (to pretend it didn't matter)? Like, obviously we are going to get back to the history of this Continent, know what the ancestors did, and get in touch with the roots of this land. More importantly, we need to let the people who have ancestral roots to speak out, be participants in the creation of a governement. I know all this is sort of like freakish concepts to the USA-er. However that is the very problem with the world. And so Mexico is going to solve that problem. Mexico will save beauty.
