WE THE CONSPIRACY

The ultimate Conspiracy is the one we play with ourselves. God’s Conspiracy. We can parse reality into biochemical algorithms, spirit mechanics, Simulation Hypotheses and any number of novel complexities but these are all perceptions and lexicons that delineate the same phenomenon. Whether we drank from Plato’s River of Forgetfulness or Gabriella placed her finger on our lips with a “Shh” after telling us the secret of everything before incarnation or we are just avatars being played in a Holographic game, we, in the end are the Creator who has decided to descend into an Underworld we created and to immerse ourselves out of a divine boredom and recapture a zeal, an ambition for learning we had lost in our opulence. At any moment we can be any one of us at any time and experience the ecstasy of suffering for as long or as brief a time as we like. We can experience the thrill of the victim and the agony of the hunter, and we avoid success and fulfillment here because we’re all too familiar with it when not. Our voluntary forgetting does cause us to seek gurus but only when we’ve had enough of this Underworld and it’s time for Game Over. And when we find that teacher and describe our longings, we are looked upon by our master curiously. Because we are asking to find what we already own. The key to escape is pondering that curious look and finally admitting to ourselves that we are the I that created the whole damn thing. This game is splitting at the seams. It’s glitching with poorly conceived villains and soon we’ll all remember why there was suffering in this world and we will miss it.
