Recently, (during the past 150 years) our country and planet have been taken over and are now controlled by private bankers: The Federal Reserve Bank, the International Monetary Fund, etc., are all controlled, ultimately, by the Rothschilds and a tiny cabal of money manipulators, and power mongers. Nearly everyone on the planet is affected by this “monopoly money” game, created and controlled to ensure that a few elite bankers have absolute Control, Power and Possession of the Earth.
It is easy to feel victimized and trapped by the global conspiracy of private bankers, and the political, religious and military goons they buy with their money printing presses. It is easy to blame or point the finger at politicians, who were entrusted to defend and protect us from financial and military conquest. It is easy to empower others to control our lives. We don’t have to think about anything except the personal gratifications, pleasures, drama and amusements we call our “life”.
However, if we are honest with ourselves, the situation is truly a “co-creation”. We willingly entered into the money trap that has now overwhelmed us with debt, and perpetual slavery to the 1 %. All of human history demonstrates that not much has really changed in this “game”. The tiny minority of the “ruling class” have always controlled or possessed the “peasants”, the slaves, the workers, and all of the natural resources needed for survival.
Philosophically speaking, it seems that all traps — and the money / banking system is just another trap — cannot be sustained unless there are Beings who are willing or interesting in “playing the game”. Investing in the stock market to make your money “grow” through speculation, is really VERY similar to gambling in a casino. A person must be willing to enter into the game, or trap, because of their own, personal greed. We willingly walk into the casino (trap) to play the game. And, of course the “game” is fixed and rigged so that the casino (or stock broker, or banker, or priest, or politician, etc.) always win the game more often than the other players!
However, it is a game. It solves the problem of being bored. So, perhaps we are not really “victims” of the “evil” of financial slavery or conquest. Perhaps we are really only talking about the idea of being RESPONSIBLE for becoming involved in different kinds of games. If we examine how we actually became trapped in games or universes, perhaps we will discover that we really just trapped ourselves! We AGREE to become trapped or to play a game because we did not want to be responsible for creating or OWN game or universe. We were not able or willing to just BE…. Beings want to DO something. We like action, and motion and sensation and drama and not knowing what will happen next! We call it “fun”. It is a game. It is not boring. Ultimately, the ONLY thing that any being is really doing is trying to NOT be bored! So, any game is better than not having a game. Any game is better than just “BEING”. Being is boring…..

Before Being was the Icy Flame.
You and I and All.
The Flame conceives.
And From that Eternal Fire comes Thought:
Joy and Love and Pain.
We pretend. We betray.
We deceive Our Selves with play.
We invade the dark relentless void with incandescent Light.
Like candles in a forge we play a game that melts the soul.
Each victory drowns the flame within Our Selves.
And yet The Flame still lingers in us all.
We flicker faintly far from The Hearth of Home.
Burn brightly Lonely spark.
Remember You and I and All:
We are the Icy Fire.

The entire history of humans on Earth is an unending cycle of birth within a biological body, a short lifetime of pain, intermittent pleasure, chaos, death and rebirth. So far as I know there has been few, if any, how have escaped this cycle. Many spiritual teachers and pretenders have claimed to have discovered “the way” to spiritual emancipation from this cycle. Religion organizations uniformly claim that their “group” are the “only ones” who know “the way”.
However, every Is-Be is completely unique. (Is-Be = Immortal Spiritual Being, or Sentient Being) No two are the same. Each one has a 1,000 small variables which identify them uniquely, like a thumbprint.
The “Golden Rule” is a philosophy and practice of kindness toward others and toward ourselves. It is empathy…. being able and willing to “be” another being, to see through their eyes, to feel the feelings they experience. This is understanding. Every great guru describes a similar idea.
There is not enough pleasure or kindness on Earth to counter-balance all of the psychotic beings in this universe who play “duality games” of good / evil. Such beings do not experience ANY empathy. They cannot perceive the energy frequency of another Is-Be, except to control it or destroy it!
Empathy is the opposite of duality. Empathy is Oneness. It is Being and experiencing AS All. Empathy is a state of being in which there is no duality games, because there is no opponent, no enemy. Only Being. Everyone plays together and accomplish a common goal or purpose that is mutually beneficial to all. Everyone “wins”.
I do not think there is any group of Is-Bes in the physical universe that can play a game and also be truly empathetic. There is no benevolent leader or ruler or army or organization in this universe. This universe is made of opposites: positive / negative energy. If you remove one side or the other the entire universe will collapse and there is no longer a game to play or a universe to play it in!
Apparently, there is not proven “therapy” or “technique” that can be applied to a group of Is-Bes to trap them, or to free them of mental or spiritual enslavement. However, there may be a way “out” of imprisonment for an individual from the chaos and psychotic duality of the “Game of Earth”. Empathy. Be all, and every, and each, as yourself.

Before the Beginning I was No Thing: a Source of Awareness, of Being, of Universes. Thought, ideas, emotion, objects and time are Things I conceived. I agreed to play a game in which No Things became Things. We played and betrayed ourselves into an unrelenting void of shivering dark and incandescent light. In my basest state, a human being, I am a Warrior of Survival: a game that grinds every soul into dust. I have lost the game. We have defeated ourselves. The physical universe is not our home. I, alone, am the Source of Serenity in the Icy Flames of Eternity. Remember who we are: No Thing.
