Osiris who gave humans the gift
of creative agriculture and greening of the earth. hits a bull's eye
diagnosing how religions and ideologies turn from springboards for human
happines and freedom and enhanced humanity into divisive enclaves of
static fanatic beliefs perpetrated by priesthoods, with each enclave
poised against the other firmly believing itself to be in sole pocession
of a static unchangeable truth. Half poem half philosophy Osiris sends
his message of love against dogma, of interactive pluralism against
insular monochrome.
And Osiris said to
Imhotep in his dream: "Imhotep my beloved
tell your people before
you cross the river of life
free from all pain:
"Tell them"
BEWARE!
Beware the priests, pundits,the learned and those who tell
you that they know me FOR YOU past, present and future
No priest
pundit or learned person can ever know me for another
You must know
me yourself for yourself or you shall never know me
A method brings
you nearer to me only if it is a boat, an open boat
An open boat is
a joy unto my heart but it is so so rare
the mechanisms for secrecy
and exclusion are too powerful
Secrecy and exclusion kill me just as
violence, lies and treachery do!
trust not secret rites rituals and
cults Osiris is no companion to any of these, even that they be
practiced in His name
Beware the method that is not a boat for
journeying in, but a house of protection Worse still beware the closed
house of protection. It is an exclusion zone
It excludes those
within and those without. It generates poverty of thought
Exclusion
generates arrested growth and poverty of emotions,
masquerading
under the masque of all-knowing wisdom shrouded in mystery and mystique
They say to justify "we were taught not to throw away pearls to
the swine", the greatest pearl in all creation is the embryo
what
the love-wisdom really meant must have been "do not throw away your
embryos to the swine
let them grow for to allow the genes within
them to flower and flourish" for what damage can the swine do to a
lifeless and hardened pearl?
nothing at all
Swine can surely
ravage an embryo, devour it and tear it apart,
but much worse, than
swine, a hard non-responsive and poisoned womb
can be much more
lethal the more alive the more vulnerable, the victim embryo
the
love-wisdom saying really meant :
" do not throw away your embryos
to hard non-responsive,
cold and frightened wombs
"if you
are hardened and coated in many impregnable layers
you are safe, you
are immune.
when a pearl has laid upon its inner heart layer after
layer of armoured protection
it is impregnable, inviolate,
it
dies a secure and well protected death even as it shines deceptively
displaying an attractive, cold and deadly sheen
The "I and mine"
lot, denigrate and exclude the "other",
they hate my teaching of "I
and other" harmony but they will never show that hate or act upon it
publicly.
Hate is contrary to their image and to their
self-perception
and they therefore give their hate other names
and rationalise their hate and fear actions in masterly ways.
They are masters of sentimentality and displaced emotions as
surrogate for the absence of real emotions
Hysterical righteous
anger, sentimental love, mechanical performance, sentimental pity,
sentimental patriotism
useful surrogates for those who sense it
unbecoming to reveal their hate
I Osiris, make this judgment to warn
you
as my inner eye leaps to see these selfsame "I and mine" lot
"self-styled civilised angels"
perpetrating for years and years
senseless and bloody conflicts
wars of hate resulting in the
slaughter of millions upon millions of innocents .
Holocaust
after holocaust without let remission or pause for self-examination!
beyond the worst nightmares of Amon and Amaunet.
they
hate MOZART and OSIRIS
they only pretend to love Mozart to bluff
their way into musical respectability
in action they hate and
dismiss him utterly
they are busy judging ranking and
classifying,
they make the a priori decision of, who are the swine
and which are the pearls......
Who will ever know whether the
dynamics of these decisions are "little"self-interest, self-preservation
schemes or all encompassing love?
How many times do they repeat the
commonly propagated error :
by "pearl" is meant hardness,
invulnerabilty, untouchability, unchangeable permanence immutability?
thinking they possess a few well hardened pearls they will with
unquestioning certainty, and without let or mercy
deny all other
pearls
even though they sing or shine in every corner of the
universe and in every corner of life
They are the mighty
monopolisers of all privelege because they lay the spastic claim of sole
possession
to a few once-upon-a-time pearls turned stale, frozen and
awesome-repulsive from over exclusion
remember Imhotep:
even
pearls were alive one day even they need to breath
even they
,hardened pearls, knew how to grow and take risks one time
true
lovers are ready to take risks
true lovers will never imprison their
seeds in an oyster deprived of growth,
true lovers yearn to open the
door and are ready to be hurt in proportion to how much they love
for they always heal and grow
Beware then my beloved Imhotep,
Bewarethese boats turned into immobile houses of exclusion for they
above all exclude the living Osiris
The search and the journey go on
forever
whenever you think you have found me, you have surely lost
me
whenever you believe you have found me you have surely lost me,
the more absolute your certainty the more distant I am from you
such is the tantalising tragedy of the human race
Beware the
TRUTH and those who claim to possess it
for it is too great, too
alive, too elusive pulsating for anyone to possess or enclose in any
cage
Strive for freedom from all encumbrances for to follow the
rhythm and dance of the never-ending search for the truth.
Dance
together and fill the Universe with Osirian music
That free rhythm
and dance is what ennobles man.
Ihe delusion that he knows the
Truth or that he possesses the Truth
using that monopoly as
justification for actions and teachings that surely destroy, that most
powerful yet most vulnerable Truth
far from empowering man and
allowing him to possess the ultimate it is a diminution and a perversion
of man
Beware the day when humanity will be divided into sects
each one claiming to know the Truth and to be in sole possession of
the one and only Truth, connected to the one and only true Osiris.
Each sect will be poised to inflict any amount of harm and to do
battle,
in the name of "Osiris the great" with other sects in the
absolute belief that their perceptions are true and right to the
exclusion of all other,
while I Osiris, calling and calling
unheeded and unheard, remain mummified, banished and excluded in the
dread underworld
Beware texts and words, they are but a jumping
board to the eternal dance of Truth,
words alone ,without the rhythm
and the music, freeze all essence on their lifeless path.
Osiris/life waits eternally yearning for the human race to free
itself from all encumbrance
Osiris/life waits yearning for his
return, beyond boats turned prisons, beyond texts turned shackles,
beyond gold, changed from servant to master, and recreated into a
blatant anti-life value generator.
Osiris is always waiting for to
be experienced within
Osiris is waiting for the sublime
consciousness-transforming recognition WITHIN
As Osiris
disappeared out of Imhotep's dream he found his lips uttering the final
farewell:
All these groups claiming to possess the whole truth to
the exclusion of all other,
keep me banished, mummified and buried
in the underworld.
The cruelty and the violence of this denial is
immeasurable. It is so cruel
The measure for the life-support
endeavour of nations and groups
is the paradoxical emergence amongst
the most powerful, the most rich,the most priveleged
of deeply
modest interactive pluralism.
Learning from the weaker others not
riding them, molding them, and using them.
Who amongst the rich and
powerful
will nurture and practice the ability and the desire to
learn continuously,
to carry the terrible burden of doubt for to
maintain the ability to grow and the courage to change?
Beware
Imhotep!This life/Osiris demand goes against common sense and
shortsighted gain,
but it is an absolute must if life-sense is to
prevail and save this violent and threatened World.
Then, when this
impossible paradox comes true, Imhotep my beloved,
you know that my
essence can hope for an opening to breakthrough, breakout for to
flourish
and flower and help ravaged nature and tormented humanity
water the seeds of sanity, harmony, justice and peace
a prelude to
Osirian fertility, green Earth, flowering of human genes and all genes
and riches without limit. Imhotep then heard an echo slowly fading away
to love me is to ask questions
I mean really ask questiond
from the heart and then ....
ask again ...
That Is the Osirian
yoke....
human societies weak and strong, have taken to interpreting
history, mythology even religion in terms of their strictures,
complexes, fears and needs as well as the demands of the age and
circumstances at the time. When they have completed the process, they
conveniently forget. They forget the dynamics of the process and inflict
the result upon themselves and many generations after them, as the
indisputable TRUTH. Thus feeding a cummulative destructive force in
human social evolution separating it farther and farther from the forces
of biological evolution and of the evolution of matter. Social evolution
is thus being led into an impossible impasse. It is that very impasse
that Osiris addresses
