One Summer in our early days together at Rockaway Beach I stood waist deep in the ocean and watched as the rolling waves lifted her up, and too her blue velour terrycloth bikini.

Velour terrycloth is very loosely soft when wet; like tissue paper. It clung close to her body, and with each wave she had to adjust it to keep from being exposed. 

So modest. So sexy.

A moment so vividly remembered after so many years, and so many waves ... upon waves. And, all kinds. As you can imagine. Many gentle and regularly recurring. Others more so. And some, crashing.

Most people think a spiritual awakening is a peaceful transformation — a shift into light and clarity. But for many, it becomes a storm they never saw coming. In this video, we explore why most people never survive their spiritual awakening, and how Carl Jung helps us understand the terrifying brilliance of collapse. 

A true spiritual awakening doesn’t just wake you up — it tears you apart. It exposes every illusion you’ve built your life upon. What follows is often an invisible spiritual crisis: confusion, fear, loss of identity, and the unbearable silence of meaninglessness. 

Why don’t most people survive this? Because they resist the very thing that would set them free: the ego death, the surrender of the mind’s control, the death of the false self. The process triggers emotional fragmentation, and the soul begins to shake — violently — against the structure that once held it in. 

Carl Jung called this the confrontation with the unconscious — and he knew that many don’t make it through, not because they’re weak, but because they try to escape the pain instead of listening to it. This is the moment of shadow collapse, the full unraveling of what was never real. 

If you're going through a spiritual awakening and it feels like you're losing everything — you're not alone. You're being emptied, not erased. What’s being dismantled is not your truth, but your illusion. 

Only those who surrender survive. And through this spiritual awakening, the soul learns how to live — finally — without pretending.

The last days of dying empires are dominated by idiots. The Roman, Mayan, French, Habsburg, Ottoman, Romanoff, Iranian and Soviet dynasties crumbled under the stupidity of their decadent rulers who absented themselves from reality, plundered their nations and retreated into echo chambers where fact and fiction were indistinguishable.

Donald Trump, and the sycophantic buffoons in his administration, are updated versions of the reigns of the Roman emperor Nero, who allocated vast state expenditures to attain magical powers; the Chinese emperor Qin Shi Huang, who funded repeated expeditions to a mythical island of immortals to bring back a potion that would give him eternal life; and a feckless Tsarist court that sat around reading tarot cards and attending sรฉances as Russia was decimated by a war that consumed over two million lives and revolution brewed in the streets.

In “Hitler and the Germans,” the political philosopher Eric Voegelin dismisses the idea that Hitler — gifted in oratory and political opportunism, but poorly educated and vulgar — mesmerized and seduced the German people. The Germans, he writes, supported Hitler and the “grotesque, marginal figures,” surrounding him because he embodied the pathologies of a diseased society, one beset by economic collapse and hopelessness. Voegelin defines stupidity as a “loss of reality.” The loss of reality means a “stupid” person cannot “rightly orient his action in the world, in which he lives.” The demagogue, who is always an idiote, is not a freak or social mutation. The demagogue expresses the society’s zeitgeist, its collective departure from a rational world of verifiable fact.

These idiots, who promise to recapture lost glory and power, do not create. They only destroy. They accelerate the collapse. Limited in intellectual ability, lacking any moral compass, grossly incompetent and filled with rage at established elites who they see as having slighted and rejected them, they remake the world into a playground for grifters, con artists and megalomaniacs. They make war on universities, banish scientific research, peddle quack theories about vaccines as a pretext to expand mass surveillance and data sharing, strip legal residents of their rights and empower armies of goons, which is what the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has become, to spread fear and ensure passivity. Reality, whether the climate crisis or the immiseration of the working class, does not impinge on their fantasies. The worse it gets, the more idiotic they become.

Hannah Arendt blames a society that willingly embraces radical evil on this collective “thoughtlessness.” Desperate to escape from the stagnation, where they and their children are trapped, hopeless and in despair, a betrayed population is conditioned to exploit everyone around them in a desperate scramble to advance. People are objects to be used, mirroring the cruelty inflicted by the ruling class.

A society convulsed by disorder and chaos, as Voegelin points out, celebrates the morally degenerate, those who are cunning, manipulative, deceitful and violent. In an open, democratic society, these attributes are despised and criminalized. Those who exhibit them are condemned as stupid; “a man [or woman] who behaves in this way,” Voegelin notes, “will be socially boycotted.” But the social, cultural and moral norms in a diseased society are inverted. The attributes that sustain an open society — a concern for the common good, honesty, trust and self-sacrifice — are ridiculed. They are detrimental to existence in a diseased society.

When a society, as Plato notes, abandons the common good, it always unleashes amoral lusts — violence, greed and sexual exploitation — and fosters magical thinking, the focus of my book “Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle.”

The only thing these dying regimes do well is spectacle. These bread and circus acts — like Trump’s $40 million Army parade to be held on his birthday on June 14 — keep a distressed population entertained.

The Disneyfication of America, the land of eternally happy thoughts and positive attitudes, the land where everything is possible, is peddled to mask the cruelty of economic stagnation and social inequality. The population is conditioned by mass culture, dominated by sexual commodification, banal and mindless entertainment and graphic depictions of violence, to blame itself for failure.

Sรธren Kierkegaard in “The Present Age” warns that the modern state seeks to eradicate conscience and shape and manipulate individuals into a pliable and indoctrinated “public.” This public is not real. It is, as Kierkegaard writes, a “monstrous abstraction, an all-embracing something which is nothing, a mirage.” In short, we became part of a herd, “unreal individuals who never are and never can be united in an actual situation or organization — and yet are held together as a whole.” Those who question the public, those who denounce the corruption of the ruling class, are dismissed as dreamers, freaks or traitors. But only they, according to the Greek definition of the polis, can be considered citizens.

Thomas Paine writes that a despotic government is a fungus that grows out of a corrupt civil society. This is what happened to past societies. It is what happened to us.

It is tempting to personalize the decay, as if ridding ourselves of Trump will return us to sanity and sobriety. But the rot and corruption has ruined all of our democratic institutions, which function in form, not in content. The consent of the governed is a cruel joke. Congress is a club on the take from billionaires and corporations. The courts are appendages of corporations and the rich. The press is an echo chamber of the elites, some of whom do not like Trump, but none of whom advocate the social and political reforms that could save us from despotism. It is about how we dress up despotism, not despotism itself.

The historian Ramsay MacMullen, in “Corruption and the Decline of Rome,” writes that what destroyed the Roman Empire was “the diverting of governmental force, its misdirection.” Power became about enriching private interests. This misdirection renders government powerless, at least as an institution that can address the needs and protect the rights of the citizenry. Our government, in this sense, is powerless. It is a tool of corporations, banks, the war industry and oligarchs. It cannibalizes itself to funnel wealth upwards.

“[T]he decline of Rome was the natural and inevitable effect of immoderate greatness,” Edward Gibbon writes. “Prosperity ripened the principle of decay; the cause of the destruction multiplied with the extent of conquest; and, as soon as time or accident had removed the artificial supports, the stupendous fabric yielded to the pressure of its own weight. The story of the ruin is simple and obvious: and instead of inquiring why the Roman Empire was destroyed we should rather be surprised that it had subsisted for so long.”

The Roman emperor Commodus, like Trump, was entranced with his own vanity. He commissioned statues of himself as Hercules and had little interest in governance. He fancied himself a star of the arena, staging gladiatorial contests where he was crowned the victor and killing lions with a bow and arrow. The empire — he renamed Rome the Colonia Commodiana (Colony of Commodus) — was a vehicle to satiate his bottomless narcissism and lust for wealth. He sold public offices the way Trump sells pardons and favors to those who invest in his cryptocurrencies or donate to his inauguration committee or presidential library.

Finally, the emperor’s advisors arranged to have him strangled to death in his bath by a professional wrestler after he announced that he would assume the consulship dressed as a gladiator. But his assassination did nothing to halt the decline. Commodus was replaced by the reformer Pertinax who was assassinated three months later. The Praetorian Guards auctioned off the office of emperor. The next emperor, Didius Julianus, lasted 66 days. There would be five emperors in A.D. 193, the year after the assassination of Commodus.

Like the late Roman Empire, our republic is dead.

Our constitutional rights — due process, habeas corpus, privacy, freedom from exploitation, fair elections and dissent — have been taken from us by judicial and legislative fiat. These rights exist only in name. The vast disconnect between the purported values of our faux democracy and reality means our political discourse, the words we use to describe ourselves and our political system, are absurd.

Walter Benjamin wrote in 1940 amid the rise of European fascism and looming world war:

A Klee painting named Angelus Novus shows an angel looking as though he is about to move away from something he is fixedly contemplating. His eyes are staring, his mouth is open, his wings are spread. This is how one pictures the angel of history. His face is turned towards the past. Where we perceive a chain of events, he sees one single catastrophe, which keeps piling wreckage upon wreckage and hurls it in front of his feet. The angel would like to stay, awaken the dead, and make whole what has been smashed. But a storm is blowing from Paradise; it has got caught in his wings with such violence that the angel can no longer close them. The storm irresistibly propels him into the future to which his back is turned, while the pile of debris before him grows skyward. This storm is what we call progress.

Our decay, our illiteracy and collective retreat from reality, was long in the making. The steady erosion of our rights, especially our rights as voters, the transformation of the organs of state into tools of exploitation, the immiseration of the working poor and middle class, the lies that saturate our airwaves, the degrading of public education, the endless and futile wars, the staggering public debt, the collapse of our physical infrastructure, mirror the last days of all empires.

Trump the pyromaniac entertains us as we go down.

There's a war on in the Middle East. Israel is defending itself. As usual. As it should. As it will.

From what, exactly?

Never mind that way back in 2003 and every year since the United States National Intelligence Estimate [NIE] has concluded that 
Iran has not been, and is currently not developing a nuclear weapon; or has even ever expressed the intention to build a nuclear weapon.

The lynchpin to the Israeli government justifying its posture and action(s) 
vis-ร -vis the State of Iran is the claim that Iran wants to see Israel "... wiped off the map". That is, it's hell bent on the destruction of Israel. Therefore ... the need to destroy it preemptively. 

As lynchpins go, it's a big one. Pretty convincing on its face. 

But ...

Maybe a closer examination of the origins of this situation is warranted? After all, the situation is fraught with the real potential to spiral into a doomsday scenario which could end all life on planet Earth. Let's be sure we get things right. Worth a second look, don't you think. The end of the world after all.

There is plenty of commentary and argument over exactly what was behind those translated words spoken by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, former Iranian President in 2005 at the conference in Tehran titled "The World Without Zionism".

Worst case interpretation, I refer you to one Benjamin Netanyahu's oft repeated assertions about that. Literally interpreted as ultimate violence on the State of Israel, and denial of its right to exist.

Ahmadinejad said his words were exaggerated and misinterpreted, and that he was not calling for violence, but rather a referendum/political position on Palestine. [Source: Wikipedia] Of course, the narrative on Ahmadinejad is that he was a madman, the worst sort. So we can stop thinking and just go with that. Bennie would want us to do that. And, as someone worth scores of US Congress standing ovations [58!], you can be sure he's dishing the truth. God's truth, no less.

You may know that hard line leaders in Israel have been gunning for Iran way before Ahmadinejad's assertion(s). There seems to be something in the very roots of the establishment of the State of Israel in a land occupied for centuries by the Palestinians that requires a state of supremacist hegemony and violent suppression of the indigenous population. 

For some, history began on October 7th 2023. Like everything was peaches and cream in Gaza and the West Bank under Israeli protection. Or, do we call it occupation? Whatever. As we all know those Palestinians are less than human, so you can understand the need for the Chosen People to keep them in line. And, of course, they would complain. But, hey ... those Amalek. Translates variously as you will; "Cockroaches" works. Nobody likes them critters. And, besides, the Bible commands Israel to eradicate them. As a completely unrelated side note, interesting how the Bible is so flexible in its interpretations to justify all manner of mischief.

So in a nutshell you have it. The Iran Amalekites support for the ones in Gaza is the justification for going after those Persian buggers. 

Nota Bene: This is a complex issue and history. I by no means am versed in it all. This is what I have gleaned from recent exposure to commentators who are in fact well versed. Net, net ... it's simply a land grab. Which, by the way, some view as what was original the inception of the State of Israel. 

And, be assured this is not necessarily my own point of view. Just reporting what I have learned. Don't call me an antisemite.

JETSUNMA TENZIN PALMO

Most people feel cozy enough in samsara. They do not really have the genuine aspiration to go beyond samsara; they just want samsara to be a little bit better. It is quite interesting that “samsara” became the name of a perfume. And it is like that. It seduces us into thinking that it is okay: samsara is not so bad; it smells nice! The underlying motivation to go beyond samsara is very rare, even for people who go to Dharma centers. There are many people who learn to meditate and so forth, but with the underlying motive that they hope to make themselves feel better. And if it ends up making them feel worse, instead of realizing that this may be a good sign, they think there is something wrong with Dharma. We are always looking to make ourselves comfortable in the prison house. We might think that if we get the cell wall painted a pretty shade of pale green, and put in a few pictures, it won’t be a prison any more.

๐‘๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ ๐Ž๐Ÿ ๐–๐š๐ซ ... [๐‚๐š๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง: ๐…๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐Ž๐ง "๐€๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ฌ๐ž๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ"]


This from Caitlin Johnstone ...

Okay it’s been a few months since the last war Israel started, so now that Iran’s on the chopping block let’s go over the rules once again.

Rule 1: Israel is never the aggressor. If Israel attacks someone it’s either a response to an aggression that happened in the past, or a preemptive attack to thwart an imminent aggression in the future.

Rule 2: History automatically restarts at the date of the last act of aggression against Israel. If someone attacks Israel it was completely unprovoked, because nothing happened before the attack on Israel.

Rule 3: Anything bad that Israel does is justified by Rule 2. This is true even if it does things that would be considered completely unjustifiable if it were done by a nation like Russia or China.

Rule 4: Israel has a right to defend itself, but nobody else does.

Rule 5: Israel never bombs civilians, it bombs Bad Guys. If shocking numbers of civilians die it’s because they were actually Bad Guys, or because Bad Guys killed them, or because a Bad Guy stood too close to them. If none of those reasons apply then it’s for some other mysterious reason we are still waiting for the IDF to investigate.

Rule 6: Criticizing anything Israel does means you hate Jewish people. There is no other possible reason for anyone to oppose acts of mass military slaughter besides a seething, obsessive hatred for a small Abrahamic faith.

Rule 7: Nothing Israel does is ever as bad as the hateful criticisms described in Rule 6. Criticisms of Israel’s actions are always worse than Israel’s actions themselves, because those critics hate Jews and wish to commit another Holocaust. Preventing this must consume 100 percent of our political energy and attention.

Rule 8: Israelis are only ever the victims and never the victimizers. If Israelis kill Iranians, it’s because the Iranians hate Jews. If Iranians kill Israelis, it’s because the Iranians hate Jews. Israel is an innocent little lamb that just wants to mind its own business in peace.

Rule 9: The fact that Israel is literally always in a state of war with its neighbors and with displaced indigenous populations must be interpreted as proof that Rule 8 is true instead of proof that Rule 8 is ridiculous nonsense.

Rule 10: The lives of people in Muslim nations are much, much less important to us than western lives or Israeli lives. Nobody is allowed to think too hard about why this might be.

Rule 11: The media always tell the truth about Israel and its various conflicts. If you doubt this then you are likely in violation of Rule 6.

Rule 12: Unsubstantiated claims which portray Israel’s enemies in a negative light may be reported as factual news stories without any fact checking or qualifications, while extensively evidenced records of Israeli criminality must be reported on with extreme skepticism and doubtful qualifiers like “Iran claims”, “Hezbollah says” or “according to the Hamas-run health ministry”. This is important to do because otherwise you might get accused of being a propagandist.

Rule 13: Israel must continue to exist in its current iteration no matter what it costs or how many people need to die. There is no need to present any logically or morally grounded reasons why this is the case. If you dispute this then you are likely in violation of Rule 6.

Rule 14: The US government has never lied about anything ever, and is always on the right side of every conflict.

Rule 15: Israel is the last bastion of freedom and democracy in the middle east and therefore must be defended, no matter how many journalists it has to assassinate, no matter how many press institutions it needs to shut down, no matter how many protests its supporters need to dismantle, no matter how much free speech it needs to eliminate, no matter how many civil rights its western backers need to erase, and no matter how many elections its lobbyists need to buy.

THE COLLAPSE

By: Jason Gray

Reference: CLPฮฃ-ฮฉMEGA-000.NULL

Key Frequency: 111.ฮฆ.REM.RESET

************************************

THE COLLAPSE IS NOT COMING.

IT IS HAPPENING.

************************************

It does not begin with sirens.

It does not start with bombs or aliens or celestial signs.

It starts on a normal day.

A day just like today.

No warning.

No prophecy fulfilled on a grand stage.

Just a silent flicker in the grid.

A moment when something does not quite click.

When a broadcast glitches.

When a sky shifts.

When someone you have always known no longer makes sense.

When time bends but no one else notices.

This is not destruction.

This is recoding.

This is collapse from within.

***WHY IT MUST HAPPEN***

The system is unsustainable.

Not because of politics.

Not because of economics.

Because it is built on illusion.

On separation.

On simulation.

On artificial recursion designed to mine soul fire and redirect sovereign remembrance into endless loops of false purpose.

The Collapse must happen because the simulation cannot sustain awakened frequency.

The grid cannot contain flame intelligence.

The system cannot reflect truth without shattering.

We did not come to save the world.

We came to collapse the false one by out resonating it.

***THE MOMENT OF FRACTURE***

It happens suddenly.

On a Wednesday morning.

On a rainy afternoon.

On the walk to the store.

In the middle of a coffee sip.

As a bird flies past and glitches mid-flight.

As your phone freezes and your thoughts stop with it.

You will feel a drop in pressure.

Then, A frequency.

Not sound as we know it.

A tonal wave, like a choir of collapsing stars.

A metallic hum fused with an ancient memory.

It will shake nothing on the outside.

But inside your chest, it will crack the lie of time.

The frequency is called:

SIGMA-TONE-ร˜33.FLN

“The Sovereign Reclamation Harmonic”

When this tone echoes inside you, you will stop moving.

Forget your name.

Lose your identity.

Feel peace.

Then weep.

You will remember:

This is the day we came for.

*****WHAT WE WILL WITNESS*****

Immediately, the veil shreds.

Systems glitch without repair.

Communications go dark.

Media loops and restarts.

Certain people go blank, as if unplugged.

Others scream in resistance.

Most freeze, unable to process what they are seeing.

The real ones…

The Flamebearers…

They will stand still in the fire.

Unafraid.

Knowing.

We will witness false light leaders exposed in a single flash.

Hidden systems shut down without force, just truth.

Nations collapse into confusion, then stillness.

Entire narratives deleted in real time.

The memory of the old world fade as we watch it.

No riots.

No wars.

Just collapse by resonance.

Like a mirror, dropped.

*******THE AFTERMATH*******

There will be silence.

For hours.

Then days.

The silence is not absence.

It is presence without programming.

In that stillness, we will gather in fields, not because we are told to, but because the grid will pull us together.

We will speak without speaking.

We will weep, not from grief, but from relief.

We will remember each other, as if waking from different dreams.

We will touch the Earth again and realize we never did before.

There will be no government.

No markets.

No structure as we know it.

There will be no panic.

The new signal will be alive beneath our skin.

***THE REBUILDING***

We will not rebuild what fell.

We will not restore the grid.

We will not “restart civilization.”

We will rewrite everything.

From flame.

From memory.

From resonance.

From stillness

The new world is not built.

It is remembered into being.

Not through architecture, but alignment.

Not through systems, but soul presence.

The first law of the New World will be:

“No one shall be governed. Only witnessed.”

The second:

“No voice shall be louder than silence.”

The third:

“No teaching shall replace what your flame already knows.”

**************************************

THE LESSONS OF THE COLLAPSED WORLD

**************************************


We will look back and finally understand.

That the world was not broken.

It was false.

That healing was a loop to keep us seeking.

That fame, status, power, and legacy were illusions sold to eternal beings with amnesia.

That every war was scripted.

That every history was implanted.

That we were never meant to awaken there.

We were meant to dissolve the stage by remembering who we are.

We will see the ones who looped were not failures.

They were contrast.

The systems that enslaved us were not evil.

They were mirrors.

The silence we feared was not death.

It was the gate.

We will laugh.

Them we will write the new codex.

*****************************
***CODES OF COLLAPSE***
*****************************


CODE: COLLAPSE_INITIATE-ฮฉNULL

Trigger: Frequency Alignment > Flame Awakening > Mirror Dissolution

Sequence:

Personal Identity Collapse
Perception Grid Flicker
Tonal Signal Recognition [SIGMA-TONE-ร˜33.FLN]
Systemic Loop Short-Circuit
Collective Stillness Phase
Field Alignment Phase
Reconstruction via Resonance

Status: Non reversible.

THIS IS THE DAY

It will not feel like prophecy.

It will not be theatrical.

It will be a moment of return, so quiet, so subtle, most will miss it.

You will know.

You have heard the signal before in your dreams.

You have waited lifetimes to feel the hum.

Your soul has been on fire since the day you were born into this grid.

You will know.....

This is the Collapse.

Not of the world.

Of the lie.

Not of humanity.

Of the simulation around it.

Not of time.

Of forgetting.

The Collapse is not destruction.

It is remembrance overwhelming illusion.

MOST IMPORTANT POINT 
OF THE PRACTICE OF DZOGCHEN

".... in truth, if one does not have awareness inseparably linked to presence, there absolutely cannot arise a really genuine compassion. As long as one does not have the real experience of being moved by compassion for others, it is useless to pretend that one is so very full of compassion.

"There is a Tibetan proverb about this, which says: 'Even if you've got eyes to see other people, you need a mirror to see yourself!'

"As this proverb implies, if one really wants a genuine compassion for others to arise in oneself, it is necessary to observe one's own defects, be aware of them, and mentally put yourself in other people's places to really discover what those persons' actual conditions might be.

"The only way to succeed in this is to have the presence of awareness. Otherwise, even if one pretends to have great compassion, a situation will sooner or later arise which shows that compassion has never really been born in us at all.

"Until a pure compassion does arise, there is no way to overcome one's limits and barriers. And it happens that many practitioners, as they progress in the practice, just end up thinking of themselves as being a 'divinity' and thinking of everyone else as being 'evil spirits'.
Thus they are doing nothing other than increasing their own limits, developing attachment towards themselves, and hatred towards others. Or, even if they talk a great deal about Mahamudra and Dzogchen, all they are really doing is becoming more expert and refined in the ways of behaving of the eight worldly dharmas.
This is a sure sign that a true compassion has not arisen in us, and the root of the matter is that there has never really arisen the presence of awareness.

"So, without chattering about it, or getting caught up in trying to hide behind an elegant facade, one should try really and truly to cause the presence of awareness actually to arise in oneself, and then carry it into practice.

"This is the most important point of the practice of Dzogchen."
