QUALIA VIII: The Sociology of 'Living in the
Moment' as the Only Real Solution to Negativity!
Exploring QUFD Principles,

By Father Jerome
- Yes, 'Living in the Moment' IS the solution, as I have said
numerous times already. However, it MUST be a concerted effort of
ALL of humanity, using human WILL and COOPERATION, to effect
'activation' OF that PERMANENT Maturity of Mind, which awaits us
all, IF we would BUT CHOOSE IT!
- Otherwise, ANY human being could likewise experience that which I
just did experience today. First, some background. Okay, I admit
that I am nominally a Positive person, as many folks in this world
are likewise. BUT, as I have also noted a number of times already,
no matter how Positive one may be, the REALITY of this world IS that
we are, day in and day out, yet 'swimming with the sharks', in this
world of Immature minds and Lucifer's Negativities. The point is, no
matter how Positive one may be - as a result of KNOWING (awareness)
of the basics, the fundamentals, OF Positivity versus Negativity, of
that DUALITY of Good vs. Evil in this world - one is YET IMMERSED in
the Negativity that surrounds us all, and thusly one cannot help, at
times, to being Negatively 'influenced', as to one's actions, in
seeking a solution to OTHER Negativities that one might encounter.
- Here is my own personal example, of today's experience. Another
resident, of the communal 'home' in which I am currently ensconced,
was walking through the dayroom/lounge, in which a 49er's football
game was prominently blaring away on the TV, and noting that the
room was almost empty but for one person, stopped me as I was also
traversing the room, with the comment/question, "You're not
much of a football fan, are you?" Now he, surely, was certainly
not aware of my extensive writings, here on the Web, of the
Negativities and evils of sports, so his question was most
innocuous. However, in answering him, my answer did surely show my
own Negativity, as a 'solution' to the Negativity of football and as
an expression OF my own 'Knowing' and awareness OF the basic
Negativity of sports, and yet, in 'voicing' a 'solution' thereto, I
WAS INFLUENCED accordingly BY that very Negativity in which we are
all immersed. I'll let you, the Reader, see what I mean, as I tell
you what my answer to his innocuous question was. I said, pointing
to the TV, "Every time I see a sports game on that damned TV, I
feel like I'd like to get out my Uzi (Israeli submachine gun) and
just let rip, at the TV and the damn people watching it!"
- Yep! 'Swimming with the Sharks', and being Positive, IS ONLY
POSSIBLE WHEN one can remain 'in the moment'! And yet, immersed as
we all are, in Lucifer's Negativity, one cannot help sometimes but
be 'influenced' BY those Negative surroundings in which one may find
oneself. I've also said, that if a man (or woman) is being chased
down an alley by a pack of wild dogs, and suddenly finds oneself up
against a high wall or fence at the end of the alleyway, when those
wild dogs start biting and nipping at your legs, you are going to
turn violent yourself, turning to defend yourself against that
violence which is 'hounding' you! And so it is in the world! Many of
humanity have known violence for so long - in EVERY IMAGINABLE FORM,
even just the 'violence' of being 'hounded' by one's creditors or
some other monetary 'violence', especially THE LACK of monetary
resources! - that their only response IS VIOLENCE!
- So, the question might be asked, "How does one find PEACE,
and the POSITIVITY of 'Living in the Moment', WHEN all is violent
about oneself?" Well, I've already put forth some other
thoughts on these same subjects. See Father
Jerome's SIMPLE PROPOSAL for WORLD PEACE, and Father
Jerome's Question: WHAT CAN BE DONE TO STOP THE VIOLENCE? Both
Works espouse those Realities that I have already mentioned in these
webpages, and 'Living in the Moment' is one of the primary
requisites.
- HOWEVER, 'Living in the Moment', AND MAINTAINING one's Positivity,
REQUIRES that one also be surrounded BY OTHER POSITIVE PEOPLE! OR,
as an 'alternative' to being surrounded by Positive People, ONE
MIGHT BE surrounded BY THE POSITIVITY OF GOD, of Infinite
Consciousness! YES! Such IS possible, but the reality, for most
folks in today's world (even this Cleric of the Ancient Order, who
has personally shaken the hand of God, and thusly KNOWS Him!), is
that we are inevitably influenced BY THAT Negativity which surrounds
us, and until such a day as mankind, with WILL, COOPERATION and
LOVE, can eliminate such Negativity BY ACTIVATING Maturity of the
human Mind......until that day, ANY ONE of us is susceptible TO
violence and Negativity, NO MATTER WHO one might be!
- I guess, as an example of the previous statement, it is well known
in history, as to WHO it was, who sent his Armies rampaging across
Europe, 'Conquering the Infidels' FOR CHRIST! It was none other than
the POPE - the Holy See of Roman Catholicism - himself and his
Armies, who wrought violence upon the northern territories of the
European continent. In fact, I am amazed, as the classic movie, "The
Agony and The Ecstasy!" points out, that while his Armies
were yet out conquering the 'pagans', he was also intent upon
Michelangelo to complete his 'drawings' in the Sistine Chapel. Oh
well, so it goes.
- I'd like to address one final point here about 'Living in the
Moment'. Since 'Living in the Moment' involves one being POSITIVE,
therefore, as an obvious reality thereto, it follows that ANY person
engaged in or addicted TO Negativity......CANNOT BE POSITIVE, and
cannot be, in any way, TRUSTED TO BE RATIONAL, or to make rational
decisions, AS LONG AS such a person IS, in effect, A SLAVE TO
Lucifer! And particularly note here, that I used the word
'addiction', because that is what Lucifer uses to corrupt and
enslave people into his Negativities. And who are these 'addicted'
folks? Well, just count up the Negative 'addictions' that mankind
adheres to: coffee, cigarettes, drugs, medications, alcohol, food,
pastries/sweets, sugar-coated cereals, tea, sex, money, power,
sports, 'experts', religion, spirituality (the fantasy kind!),
psychoses, dependent relationships, and on and on! Unfortunately, I
must confess, that any person who is 'addicted' to any of these
addictions can, of course, NOT BE TRUSTED (being one of Lucifer's
agents!) to make a RATIONAL, POSITIVE decision, that would benefit
all of mankind, such as the elimination of Lucifer's 'fingers of
Negativity' and activation of Maturity of the human Mind for all of
humanity.
- Consequently (and I will make the necessary requirements of this
point in the next paragraph), it necessitates, and behooves, ALL OF
US, to put forth WHATEVER IT TAKES - whatever is required - TO
INSURE that one's 'fellow-man', one's neighbor, one's fellow-worker,
AND ALL OF US, no matter what our position or situation, ARE
RATIONAL HUMAN BEINGS, the ordinary 'man (or woman) on the street'
kind, WHO CAN BE TRUSTED! IF any person IS NOT a 'normal' human
being......Well, it will have to be up to the rational citizens of
our democracy or society, to do whatever needs to be done about such
a Negative person, NO MATTER WHO IT IS - even if it be the President
of the United States, who might be the Negatively-addicted,
non-rational person! THEN, when we have a society of RATIONAL human
beings, rather than 'addicts'......THEN the next paragraph
hereinfollowing shall apply! Of course, making such a 'judgement-determination'
on one's neighbor, might certainly be a very 'loaded' societal
question, and as to who can be considered to be 'normal' or
not......I have no answer, other than the first and most important
criteria for Positivity - Live in the Moment!
- "So, what can the ordinary and RATIONAL man (and woman) on
the street, do about 'Living in the Moment'?" Well, I'd say it
takes ACTIVISM - activity, in one's Words, Deeds and Actions......in
other words, RESPONSIBILITY, for oneself AND others! And that means
PARTICIPATORY WORLD DEMOCRACY, NOT 'Representative Democracy' (where
all the 'Representatives' ARE CORRUPT ANYWAY!) Each and every
INDIVIDUAL - LIVING 'in the moment' - in POSITIVITY, and surrounded
BY POSITIVE PEOPLE (where ANY Negativity would instantly be
eliminated AS THE abnormal condition which it would be!)
- And what does it take, to bring about such a beautiful world?
Well, as I have also noted many times, ELIMINATION - BY ALL OF
HUMANITY - of each and every facet of Negativity, that Lucifer has
foisted upon us, INCLUDING that most insidious and underlying
Negativity of it all - MONEY! UNTIL that culprit can be vanquished,
and humanity can "Do Unto Others, as You Would Have Others Do
Unto You!"......until that day, there can be NO "Peace in
the Valley" and NO Peace among mankind.
- BUT, IT IS POSSIBLE! It can be done! All it takes is WILL,
COOPERATION and LOVE! SO, why not give it a try? As John Lennon
said, "Give Peace a Chance!"
Aum, Peace, Amen!
