As you journey with the Father it is the case that things do get rough here and there. When the attack of those who would seek to oppress you seems at its vilest, just stand upright and have Faith in the Father and in your Desire for the Father Way. No defense, no retaliation, no attack in return, […]

We made it... SP 14
The last posting concluded the exploration of the word "tyranny / tyrant". This exploration can be summarized as follows: A tyrant is anyone or anything that heavily burdens others with cruel and unjust impositions and restrains, and interferes and meddles with their lives in an annoying […]
Minting this and minting that - SP 13b
Coinage and money As said in a prior posting, when coinage and money is standardized as the one and only currency to be used in exchanges, then people become entrapped by the need to "make money" so as to pay for the exchanges. The unrighteous - unholy call this voluntary slavery for they […]
A little side note
A little side note before the main posting today: In the interview with Bill Sardi, referenced yesterday in my posting, on "Toxic Soy", Mr. Sardi makes a reference to "God's" commandment to be "fruitful and multiply" and how what is being done to impair human fertility […]
Late addition to today's posting - SP 13a
I just listened to a show from Dr. Stan Monteith (Radio Liberty) titled "Soy toxicity" aired on May 27, 2010. In doing so I realized that I was short by one level on how tyranny affects "the place things are made" so as to control the form and character of a person. This third […]
Minting this and minting that - SP 13a
Form, character and the place where things are made As recognized yesterday, grasping the mind through control of the "mint" also includes the control of the "place where things are made or fabricated." There are two levels of this. The first of course, is the physical place we […]
Minting this and minting that - SP 13
In the posting "Grasping the mind - SP 10a" I spoke of the many ways in which the mind can be trapped or imprisoned by tyrants. In this exploration we unveiled that the word "mind" is comparable to the word "mint" and that therefore, the "mint" is one of the […]
Let's talk about sex... SP 12a
Since despotism is related to the abuse / control through sexual power, I will take the time to explore the word sexual to see what can be unveiled. Sexual: Of, pertaining to, or distinctive of sex having sex or sexual organs Occurring between or involving the two sexes in their distinctive physical […]
Update to yesterday's posting
Thanks to Linda's suggestions, I was able to polish yesterday's posting. You are invited to check it out.
Almost there SP - 12
We have covered a long ways. We have explored how tyranny rules, influences, and exercises. We have explored how tyrants usurp and oppress, and now we are into the last aspect of this exploration: despotism. So let's move on and get this done. Despot: Master or lord, see potent Tyrant or oppressor […]
Oppression - SP11
After covering many of the aspects of usurpation, one may wonder if there is anything left to unveil from any further exploration of how tyrants accomplish their deeds. After all, usurpation pretty much encompassed all behavior we take as a "normal" expression of civilization and humanity. […]
Arresting the attention - SP 10c
Let's resume the Spiritual Swimming (SP) series by taking a look at the third way in which a tyrant usurps others: the arresting of the attention. Arrest: To bring to a standstill To take into custody Catch and fix Attention: Concentration of the mind upon something Heed Consideration Fix: Place, […]
Let's continue with the pause
After writing on tyranny for a while in the Spiritual Swimming (SP) series, I feel it is necessary to take a day to refresh the Soul in the Father Way and remind ourselves of the Blessings of the Father Way. If everything we know seems to be a manifestation of tyranny, one may wonder what is left. […]
Impressing the mind SP 10b
The second way usurpation is implemented is by impressing the mind. In a way, this behavior is very similar to what has already been described, however I will take this opportunity to expand upon one aspect of all of this which I have not directly addressed before. Impress to seize into service or […]
Grasping the mind - SP 10a
Be aware, this is a long post. As unveiled in the last posting, usurpation is a stealthy and gradual increase in trespassing and involves three steps: The grasping of the mind The impression of the mind The arresting of the attention As you contemplate the three ways through which usurpation is […]
Usurpation - SP 10
So here we go. Usurpation is a word used to describe how a tyrant achieves his / her goals of rule / influence / exercise over others. Ready to continue the ride to Freedom? Usurp: To seize and hold by force or without right To commit forcible or illegal seizure of an office, power, etc. Encroach […]
One step forward- SP 9
In previous postings it was unveiled that tyranny: rules by imposing principles and regulations designed to control and direct the People influences by using deceitful behavior, 'unnatural' knowledge, occult powers, and invisible forces, and exercises by employing, occupying, taxing, perturbing, […]
Who is vulnerable? - SP 8
Before I continue with how tyrants accomplish their deeds of tyranny, it seems appropriate to pause just a little longer to ponder what follows. In exploring how tyranny manifests in our lives, we may at one point or another wonder what exactly makes someone vulnerable to tyranny. Why is it that […]
Restoration x 2
Fixed the bug - transfer pending. After a few days looking at blogging software alternatives, we finally found one that is simple yet provides what we need. Now all I have to do is adapt a little program to transfer all the blogs from the current software to the new one. It's a work in progress. […]
To exercise - SP 7
The time has arrived to tackle the last descriptive word of what a tyrant does: "exercise". I have to admit that I was quite surprised to learn that something which is presented as a much needed activity to stay healthy, is actually related to tyranny. Exercise: [keep active or busy < […]
Before exercising - SP 6
Before we begin exploration of the word "exercise", let's summarize and expound on what has been said so far regarding tyranny. A tyrant uses principles and regulations designed to control and direct someone's life. He does this through the use of occult powers and invisible forces... this […]
To influence - SP 5
The second word that describes the action of a tyrant or tyranny is "influence". If you thought the unveiling of "ruling" was a mouthful, wait until you read what is surfaced from this second descriptive word. In a way I keep thinking of the expression used in Coast to Coast AM, […]
