COMFORTABLY NUMB

The greatest concert ever staged, and the greatest guitar solo every played.

This is the summary statement of Western Civilization in the 21st Century: Comfortably Numb.

“Comfortably Numb” Lyrics

“Hello,
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone at home?
Come on now
I hear you’re feeling down.
I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I’ll need some information first,
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship smoke on the horizon…
You are only coming through in waves…
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I’ve got that feeling once again.
I can’t explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

O.K.
Just a little pin prick;
There’ll be no more aaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick….
Can you stand up?
I do believe it’s working, good.
That’ll keep you going through the show.
Come on it’s time to go.

There is no pain you are receding;
A distant ship smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying.
When I was a child,
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
And I have become
Comfortably numb”

PRESCIENT ESCHATOLOGY

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Yesterday-CubeSome years ago I undertook the study of a heretofore unknown “science” which I named  “Prescient Eschatology”.  Being the inventor and first practitioner of this new “science”, I endowed myself with the honorary title ofDoctor of Prescient Eschatology“.  My first action of “predicting the future” was that I would become a student and professor of this new philosophical / theological / ontological / logical discipline.  Although highly esoteric in nature, the subject has maintained a vast appeal to nearly all of humanity throughout it’s brief history on Earth.  Everyone wants to know the past and predict or create the future!

Pre·scient  /ˈpreSH(ē)ənt/ Adjective  — Having or showing knowledge of events before they take place.

Eschatology  (from the Greek eschatos/eschatē/eschaton meaning “last” and -logy meaning “the study of”, first used in English around 1550)  is a part of theology, physics, philosophy, and futurology concerned with what are believed to be the final events of history, the ultimate destiny of humanity.  In the context of mysticism, the phrase refers metaphorically to the end of ordinary reality and reunion with the Divine.

The most obvious point of departure for the student into the subject of Prescient Eschatology is the fundamental understanding that time in the physical universe is an “eternal now”.  For the practical purposes of my study I use the following definitions:

A)  Time is a measurement of the motion and change of position of objects in space within the eternal now of the physical universe.

B)   The future is a logical extension of:

1) volition (the act or power of making choices or decisions) and   2) momentum (the product of the mass and velocity of an object) within the eternal now of existence in the physical universe.

Therefore, if we want to predict, change or create a future we must understand and/or alter volition and momentum by any means that can be effected on them.  The means and methods of creating a future are nearly infinite in an eternal now of possibilities.

As for the “past”, time travel, changing the past, memory of the past, etc., these are a discussion of “subjective reality” or personal opinion.   The “past” is entirely dependent upon the experience and opinion (whether agreed upon or not) from the unique point of view of each individual observer of the motion of objects in space, i.e. time.  The study of “time travel” is the singular topic of interest for which I have become a member of the highly exclusive and secretive society: THE ORDER OF OMEGA TIME TRAVEL CULT.   Should anyone be interested in becoming a member of this highly esoteric organization, please inquire using the contract procedures available through this Blog.

Enjoy The Journey of The Eternal Now!
