I would like to recommend a book called, "The Dyfed Enigma: Unidentified Objects in West Wales", by Randall Jones Pugh and F.W. Holiday (author of "The Goblin Universe"), which has profound implications for this entire subject. I really love your work <3
Yes! Take away ‘the mother’…supplant the origin of life with the artifacts of man….all insight then becomes illusion!
I want to reach into my chest and tear out a rib and plant it in the earth and pray a goddess springs forth…
“When the various experiences come to light in meditation, do not be proud and anxious to tell other people, else to goddesses and mothers you will bring annoyance.”
One of the most important articles I've read in a long time. This THE issue. Interested people should also check out Hans Utter's "MKULTA for the Masses" series on William Ramsey Investigates pod.
Brilliant writing that stretches the mind. As a boomer who grew up reading lots of sci-fi (my favorite of all time is PK Dick’s Service Call) and now reading Elizabeth Nickson on Substack this is all fascinating, mind stretching, and enjoyable only because I am grounded in the Bible.
Films like Labyrinth, Matrix and The Dark Crystal TOLD us things were amiss, the world really was fuct up, weird things should be expected, and our lives were a form of illusion supported by our parents, teachers, doctors etc..
Esoterica was the authoritative take on reality that intuitively explained things. Yes, "they" put us through hell because one must begin the journey in hell. Well - lost in the forest that leads to hell anyway. The only way to move towards the light is by being in total black darkness. Alone, confused, hopeless, when death loses its sting. Hermeticism's first step is this Black work.
Not trying to be a pedantic autist here but after running the VK on Rachel Deckard doesn't say "how can she not now what she is" but "how can it not know what it is" which is important considering the doubts which arise about Deckard's own humanity. What do you think of the theory that Deckard's memories are actually those of Officer Gaff? The deleted scenes suggest this is totally impossible but I find it a cool theory.
Yes, that’s the line as filmed — but I’m quoting here from David People’s revision of Hampton Fancher’s original draft, Feb 23 1981. I should have linked the two drafts I’m using, so I’ll add that.
As for Gaff’s memories, it would make sense. The idea of Deckard being a Nexus 6 only emerged very late in the creative process, I think. David Giler, who worked on the script for Alien, told me Ridley Scott used to drive him crazy by constantly evolving the narrative even during shooting. With Alien they had to shoot extra scenes post-production to make things make sense.
I appreciate your analysis. There is good reason why this story is so over analyzed.
It’s like the 9/11 story. It was either an inside job, or it might as well have been as the results in either case seem identical.
So we’re either biomech fabrications or we might as well be, as the consequences in either case are indistinguishable.
Therefore, a clear, transcendent distinction between good and evil is necessary. ~C.G.
The 2nd Commandment is interesting in this context -- “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image.” Exodus 20:4
Right on the mark.
As my third grade teacher wrote in red ballpoint when she caught me cheating on a quiz somewhen in 1983 or ‘84: “you’re only cheating yourself!”

Really great stuff. Thanks for this.
Welcome as always, and many thanks for your continued support and interest, friend.

Good advice. Pride is error, with or without the rainbows!

Yes -- he also collaborated with Irvin on music and mind control.
Who's Irvin?
Jan Irvin, as in the post. Gnostic Media. Did a series of videos with Utter in maybe 2015.

Yes -- and it's well worth looking into Simulacra and Simulation (Jean Baudrillard 1981), the hollowed-out book that Neo hides things in.

Possibly even Lt. Castillo’s memories daresay!
Wrong city tho?
Well if Castillo can time travel, hopping a greyhound should be no problem either.
