Towards An English Renaissance

[mike]

Much attention has been focused recently on the issues of political corruption, constitutional reform, and great conspiracies by shadowy forces for "A New World Order". It is no exaggeration to say that we are on the brink of the end of civilization as we have known it in our lifetimes, a great unwinding of that Peace of Westphalia upon which the modern system of sovereign nation states rests. This is no conspiracy theory, it is incontrovertible fact, since the implementation of the Lisbon treaty spells the death knell of the nations of Europe and thus heralds a new dark age, a world plunged into medieval superstition, scientific and cultural stagnation, religious persecution and willful Malthusian genocide.

OBITUARY FOR BRITAIN.

Our fathers built us an empire great.
With cities grand, and welfare state.
A greater nation you never did see.
To better our lives, and our liberty.

They worked the mines for heat and power,
and worked the mills for such long hours.
They smelted iron to cast the plough,
and earned the freedoms we all know now.

Then came men from over the sea.
They saw this prize and went away,
and returned with armies, ships and planes,
but their intentions failed in vain.

We stood our ground and held it fast,
for six long years the siege did last,
though many fell, we did not give way,
and we honour the lost, on remembrance day.

Through years of peace, we toiled and gained,
our prosperity and growth sustained.
While devious foes, with envious eyes,
among us came, in friendly guise.

In contented lives and ignorant bliss,
we did not taste their poisoned kiss.
Like a plague, the corruption spread,
our economy ravaged, whole towns left dead.

Too late, we realised our plight.
Fortunes lost and squandered overnight,
and with the morning, another news story,
no jobs, no homes, no rights, no glory.

What traitorous leaders, and sleight of hand,
to deceive us all, and betray our land.
This privilege bestowed in trust to hold,
all credibility lost in your greed for gold.

I walked the streets of an empty town.
I passed the shops, all now shut down.
Although I saw people in the streets,
not a hopeful gaze did my eyes meet.

Some ragged cloth, in an overfilled skip.
Blowing in the wind, like a stranded ship.
A ragged woman stuffed a carrier bag,
with old clothes for her scrawny lad.

I found a flag, ‘The Union Jack’,
and feeling cold, wore it on my back.
It kept me warm all through the night,
and I folded it up at first daylight.

I walked out onto a country fell.
A beloved place that I knew well.
I dug a hole and then I prayed,
and laid the flag down in it’s grave.

I buried it deep down in the earth,
then covered it with fresh green turf.
I turned and left with heart enraged,
as I laid to rest our heritage.

My loyalty, I’ll no longer bestow,
unto a government that sinks so low.
It will take a lifetime to regain the trust,
of people, whose lives and hopes you crushed.

By,
The Minstrel Boy.

Wow! What a brilliant poem.
I agree with the article and have heard Lyndon Larouche talk about this before. There is much work to be done before we can re-educate using classical education but it is definitely necessary.

[John Morton]

Thanks for the comments freedom1.

Yes, there is much work to do. You might like to take a look here where you can find a very large body of work that is being conducted by the LaRouche Youth Movement in the United States:

We should be organizing a similar movement in the UK and linking that up with the Schiller Institute group on the continent.

The power of these ideas is a mortal threat to the oligarchy as it attacks their entire bestial system at it's core, and so this is not to be taken lightly, but it MUST be done, or our country will never recover from the social, political and economic collapse we are now experiencing.

Another poem, my favourite, with a new verse! (Apologies, Rudyard)


IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

If you can stand , and lead men out of darkness,
And know the time has come, before the rest,
If you can see the answer to the sickness,
And vigilant , stand proud to face the test,
If you can hold a vision of the future
Where men are loosed of shackles they don’t see
And tolerate their venom and their censure,
You’ll win the age old fight to set men free.

The Covenant (The Perfect Constitution)

The Covenant

We thought we ranked above the chance of ill.
Others might fall, not we, for we were wise--
Merchants in freedom. So, of our free-will
We let our servants drug our strength with lies.
The pleasure and the poison had its way
On us as on the meanest, till we learned
That he who lies will steal, who steals will slay.
Neither God's judgment nor man's heart was turned.

Yet there remains His Mercy--to be sought
Through wrath and peril till we cleanse the wrong
By that last right which our forefathers claimed
When their Law failed them and its stewards were bought.
This is our cause. God help us, and make strong
Our will to meet Him later, unashamed!

Rudyard Kipling

Interesting article and very important that we all start to ask ourselves what the outcome is going to be. The last thing we want is for society to cause it's own downfull through revolt of the masses and as the author of the article suggests, the creepy new world order elitists will have the perfect 'solution' and thus fill the gap. We are currently in the phase of 'Problems' and we are witnessing a diverse array of 'Reactions' but we must think critically and carefully what is the likely 'Solution' and who, if not the NWO, is going to offer a solution.

Personally I believe we are in a bit of a quandary. At the moment, I still find it hard to envisage an ideal future outcome.
The problem is that humanity has become infected with a pychological, spiritual, mental, emotional and physical sickness which is too complex to explain right here (perhaps another day!) and I don't know how to go about changing this, as it will affect our future and how we live. I think, one of the greatest diseases of humanity these days is the idea of seperation, each and every man and woman is encouraged from birth to see themselves as a seperate entity with seperate needs and seperate desires. This leads to a lifetime of serving the self and appeasing the self and ultimately destroying the self through neglecting the bigger picture. If, however, we were taught to believe from birth that we are all part of a bigger life-from, (whether you call it God, Nature, Earth, Spirit doesnt matter so much) but ultimately that everything we do has a direct impact on all other life forms, and that in hurting your neighbour you are really only hurting your self, and in serving your neighbour you are serving your self. If humanity could therefore learn to live as one being expressed through different perspectives then we would indeed have heaven on earth.

One of the greatest misconceptions of all time, one which has caused countless wars and deaths and human suffering over the years, is the idea that 'there's not enough': not enough food, not enough oil, not enough water, not enough love, not enough space.... etc. The fact is there is enough of all those 'things'. Half the world is dieing of starvation, the other half are dying of obesity, for goodness sake. Humans also need to be re-conditioned to know the difference between need and want.
These days we spend our whole lives wanting this, or that, or more of this or that. But what do we need? Food, water, shelter, love. Thats all we really need. And thats one of the greatest evils of the 21st century - the fact that millions of people have been conditioned to see themselves as consumers - consumers of the planet, endlessly consuming more, with no thought for the end cost, not just to the planet but to themselves spirirtually. Imagine if we created a world in which we were not human 'consumings', we were human 'beings'. A truly enlightened human wants nothing other than to be.

Quiet true. For the casual reader above post may seem like a lobby against libertarian values of individualism - contradictory to the very ideas of self determination. It is not.

We are all part of ONE. Free will is also part of it, and self-contained systems, life forms, us, exercise free will. Quantum Physics provides a quiet simple explanation for this ostensible contradiction. Societies and individuals are sick because we have lost ourselves to selfishness, greed and psychopathic power drives. We have allowed our Selves to disconnect from the energies that provide nourishment, knowledge and happiness.

It is important that we satisfy our individual needs. It is even more important that we do so in the context of the whole, without hurting the whole. This (also) means not to defraud, steal, invade, injure* or murder (* unless in self defence) for personal or any cause. For we only hurt ourselves when we violate natural (quantum) law. The NWO is based on the dis-proven Darwinist concept, which in turn is the foundation of the Fabian Socialism nightmare (Modern Feudalism, aka G Brown). Darwinism (taught in public schools) maintains that everything is about survival of the fittest. This is what the elitists believe, and this is why they are trying to having their way with us. Their mantra of ages: Divide et Impera. Divide and Conquer goes directly against the law of wholeness. Thus cancerous evil spreads.

Whoever has read David Bohm: "Wholeness and the Implicate Order", Lynne Taggart: "The Field", Michael Talbot: "The Holographic Universe" will understand.

Yes indeed, the concept of 'humanity working as one synergetic being' could be misinterpreted, and I should have pointed out that I am certainly pro-libertarian, pro-freedom. The idea of promoting a world in which all humans look after each other and take into account the bigger picture, and the concept of sharing, has nothing to do with the false precepts of 'communism' or 'socialism' the point is that, as you say, this is a change in a state of consciousness which causes the values of society to adjust and thus the focus for mankind to become one. Communism/Fascism/Socilism/Liberalism and Fabian Marxism are the exact opposite - it is one overriding view point focused in such a manner that it causes the values of society to adjust accordingly (to suit its agenda) and thus ultimately to over-ride the state of conciousness of the masses. Consiousness must be born from within, and not manipulated & deviated by external forces. Thats why society will never change for the better unless there is huge shift in consciousness / awareness.

Am I right in thinking that the current popular 'Darwinist' attitude of 'survival of the fittest' is also known as the "F**k You Theory'...? (i.e don't anyone dare get in my way or I will trample on your b***s) Something like that.

I have read all the above books that you mention. There are many others that I will eventually list when I can remember them all! :-)

That's how I, too, interpret it. We are likely to be more successful if we consider the wholeness, knowing that consciousness is all around us, part of all energy, part of everything and everyone. It follows that if we stand true to ourselves, we will defeat the NWO, the EU, the Browns, Blairs and selfishness infection of today's world.

Excellent reads. Good school. Look forward to your list. I have a vast library also. Perhaps, we should have a section "Book Recommendations". Will mention in website upgrade section.
