Uhm ... oh! Priorities!!!

Well ... . So, I've come to dwell a little on what I last wrote about honor ... and I realized that there's still this thing about Priorities that I totally ... err ... neglected. I mean, I got to the point, in one of my books, where I was about to explain this thing; But I didn't quite get it to where I wanted it to be. But it's not like I had a properly conscious idea of where I wanted it to be. Rather just a sense - a hint - something really faint; And so I moved past it and never picked up on it again.
And whenever the topic came up again ... I had this weird feeling. Like I've forgotten something.

I guess that also compares to my programming in some way.

The story then is, or the 'truth', that I was missing something critical. But I didn't know that, or not sufficiently. So I'd write about it to the best of my knowledge and understanding; And the issue will become clearer as we get through it this time.

And in a way, while the error is mine ... I have to say that it falls squarely into this 'failure to correspond (communicate)' thing. Where yea; Being in an adverse situation while not sitting in the same room where the back and forth would clear such things up ... is possibly the core problem. Because while You feel like You got me on something You only do so because I can't respond to it - or whatever. Your intention or motion is to keep me away; And if I'm not being understood properly, that's the best excuse to keep doing so.


So, what are priorities? I guess we all understand it in theory. To prioritize something is to see its urgency. But this is also where the minds diverge. The question being: How do we prioritize something? And the simplest answer is that we keep it in mind and see to it that we execute a task or take note of a thing before anything else. And so we're talking about tasks or principles. And as I see it, the way we come to actually accept a priority that is mandated from us as by the outside, is by "reasoning" - though it's more like a 'hack' in that different things are piped together; And leading priorities are hijacked to get secondary priorities going.

So we start with survival - or the accumulation of wealth. So we need a job, some way to make money; And then we need to be good at it, and look for opportunities to do better in life. Here all that we ideologically contend with is a matter of survival versus accumulation of wealth. "Virtually identical" - but ideologically different. Once someone can adapt the accumulation of wealth as their 'primary mode' - there's a lot more "access points" to hook priorities into it. Individuals who rather just care about Survival are slogs by comparison.

I can see both as somewhat self-similar; Without the burden of priorities that put them at odds with each other. And that's utlimately what Clarity has become to me. I have my own priorities - and ... I guess a proper explanation of what that means is still pending/ongoing.

So, the previous definition of priorities ... we can call it 'pragmatic'. Tasks, principles, mottos, understandings; All however mechanisms that the mind judggles into a leading or carrying position to bring about some ends that would be better than not following those 'rules'. And at that point, to whatever extent, You're like a drone of the system. Well ... at least there's grounds for making that argument.

And maybe I should need a different word to describe what I meant by 'priorities'. But what other word is there?

So, let's look at the previous example of Barbarians versus "the Civilized" in regards to Honor.


Honor is a cryptic thing to the civilized because it's vague. And so, the cynicism of "the civilized" would on and off turn it into a mockery. I'm certain that I've seen the one or the other "Anti Honor Propaganda" thing. But the concept of 'lawfulness' is there - it's where the civilized try to act honorable but in doing so they on and off are forced to act dishonorably. "Because it's the Law" or some such thing. So, "who's irrational now, Bitch?".

So, in this sense the term 'value' might work better than priority. But functionally it's still a matter of priorities. You can value "Honor" all the way You want, if Your priorities are still so that You must act with dishonor, it doesn't really ... mean anything.

But sure. The wicked will try to usurp and control whatever the dominant code of ethics might be; So, when it comes to Honor we might for instance speak of Loyalty. Get that jacked into the priority stream and ... there we go again. "Why do we even bother?".


What clarity provides is some kind of ... independent basis for priorities. You might call it '100% hypothetical' - but that's also the beauty of it. Because of that, it's corresponding to Your self. Your innermost self. And by virtue of Clarity, a part of Yourself that is interfaced with God. It doesn't take reference to the outside world, but demands something from the outside world; For You to be capable of opening up to it. It's self-sustaining because the sense of personal fulfillment that keeps it tied together is ... it's awesome! Kind of like ... veins or intestines ... I get a sense of discomfort should You try to tinker around with them.

Subsequently there's a secondary set of priorities, if You so will - because now that my priorities are wired up within myself, I need a new or different way of interacting with my surrounding. And first of all what happens is a world in which our priorities are a private matter. And we vibe based on things we prioritize; As within the ninedom ... a certain unity with the divine. And what follows can I suppose best be regarded a "Code of Honor".

For as I see that my priorities are comforted within a social environment, I should see it as a personal responsibility or duty to do my best to help it in whatever way I can. And there's an image right here that I should want to "shoulder dash" out of the picture.


You may want to hold on to Your old, pragmatic sense of priorities because letting go of those would make You less effective at what You're doing. But if what You're doing is wrong anyway, then You should want to let go anyway.

If all Your priorities prevent You from chasing Enlightenment and Unification with the divine, then "HELLO!" ... "knock knock!" ... "anyone home?". And if You need to insist on silly priorities to keep away from it, then yea ... You do the math!

But also ... try not to make the same mistake again. To try and quantize the intricacies of how these Clarity based Priorities would mess with Your worldview or ... whatever. You can't even begin to understand it!

It's an individual work, between God and the Individual - and if You want to try to rationalize that out ... as for a group of hundreds or thousands or millions or billions ... yea, good luck with that!

If anything, I have the weight of my being behind these things; In as far as I see a way to go. And because I don't have weird priorities that demand one way or the other from me; I'm free. I can expand my mind in a way that may seem irresponsible to You but You can't even offer me a way ... .

But yea, sorry.


So, You're asking how You can reorganize Your priorities in a way that pleases God? Start by turning towards HIM!

And don't let Your growing faith be a basis for others to hook their priority list into Your mindset!

Understand that Your priorities are important ... and that it should be between HIM and Yourself. Forget about Survival and Wealth and start to embrace the Priorities of Living!


So, the critical thing: The pragmatism of priorities is as subset of the entire concept of Priorities - and in certain ways a malicious one. If Your entire concept of Priorities is 'captured' by the subset of pragmatism (Survival/Wealth) the gap to the 'true' understanding of Priorities may even appear to be an irrational one; And to that extent I suppose one might ask You to "think outside the box".
So, when analyzed properly the situation is again not as simple as I would have it be, yet the thing I meant to focus on could be compared to a bridge that would lead from that narrow, pragmatic sense to a more universal one. Or, rather than saying 'universal', say ... 'clarity based' - to have an "equal and opposite" counterpart to compare against.

The crucial thing is to "unlearn" the concept of priorities as one of tasks and mechanisms, and see - well. At the very least that my invocation of the term isn't necessarily one of willfullly or forcefully implemented tasks and mechanisms; But ... well, something more 'fluid' or 'subjective' - at least in the grand scheme of things.

Certainly there's a rationale to that. Priorities are a way of wiring Your mind to do certain things. Another term that comes to mind is 'discipline'. "Disciplinary Priorities" are yet a thing of their own, which appear whenever You engage with any form of 'discipline' - such as an art. If an art requires certain things of You, You will try to incorporate those things into Your routine - and Your ability to do so depends on the "ranking" of the discipline. And "the discipline of Survival/Wealth is a mortal one".

So, the crucial thing is, that there is this disciplinary subset of priorities that help You interact with a surrounding in a way that to my sensitivities is "villainous" or "control freakish" - versus a way where a community is implicitly mutually interested in pulling the same ropes. "The Control Freak" in my opinion imposes a disturbance - which may certainly be necessary (order upon chaos); Where the individuals who can adapt to the demands are compatible with the "imposition"; But eventually it runs counter to 'the greater harmony' that we seek to proliferate in conjunction with the divine.

The crucial thing is that in this "externalization" of Your priorities You become a slave to Your surrounding - and ultimately it renders You unconscious or paralyzed in face of the 'greater' demands. It may not be obvious at first; But once Your priorities are personalized - to give You an internally consistent sense of self that is in harmony with the divine - You're also accustomed to the divine in a way that makes it easier for the divine to express itself through You. And it will do so through You as You are - as based on Your own priorities - where otherwise You would stop the divine impulses due to external demands You think Yourself aligned to or with.

The crucial thing is to understand that "many a great evil" emerges from those externalized priorities; Most relevant these days would be 'systemic problems' - such as "the social construct", not exclusively that of gender and sex. To try and look for a way to change things - while at the same time being beholdent to its mechanisms - is quasi moronic.

You may not know that You are beholdent to its mechanisms; And You may do well to identify malicious mechanisms and try Your best to oppose them. But based on our values, based on the intricacies of the social environments we cherish, we are again victim to the confines of what is familiar to us. And then once again we may become deaf to the plea of the minorities or the plea of the righteous - when our code of ethics demands us to priorities our individual sense of which pleas matter above those that come up. It's as the story of Don Quixotte - where we end up fighting patterns that distract us from the matters of the real world.


And maybe it should not surprise us that those who promise social and economic stability - even if just in word - tend to be the biggest magnets for social and political momentum. For anything else tends to forget about those left struggling, even if the most dominant, shared point is the exact thing necessary to solve our social and economic problems.

It's kind of about short term versus long term gains, but in this instance it is more importantly about clarity - regarding those things. To not get confused over what is to come first.

GNOSIS may offer a weird way forward. One that seems equally convoluted and nonstraightforward at first - in that we even say that Gnosis isn't a political orientation or a religion or any such thing. But it is the spiritual foundation from which we can move forward in Unity and Clarity.

Because we harbor diversity - our dominant political ideology must be a unity from within that diversity; And yea, I don't want to see anyone running around with red tape. Let's call it "orange tape" - where we sure have to invoke disciplinary priorities akin to "chain of command" for sake of organization and "proper procedure", such as to not get lost in the jumble of things. But ... if You follow my instructions, it all leads to shared places - where our religious priority should certainly fall upon those in the Ninedom. To say: Unto the Guardians. If we have any. And self-proclaimed guardians that cannot be certified by the proper body are fake. I should say. Well, ... I digress.


So, the Bricks and Minifigs situation for instance. The BAM guy stands protected by simply being ignorant - and being positioned in such a way that socially ... he is as the good guy. He simply acts out his role, though certainly he is a man without Honor, and the police acts along - but we've already seen this play out with the POTUS. I must say that if You still have faith in that System, You're delusional! And I don't mean to say it lightly. So yea, sure, maybe there's a way ... but ultimately I don't have high hopes and if You're not looking for alternatives You might just get got!

The most peaceful way forward is to invest in a new society - to just ... start new from within. Where already, in the USA being racist about it is encouraged for else You might get ICEd. You know ... it's ... sigh. I kind of hate having high speed internet again. ...
But ... as it stands it doesn't really seem like I missed anything.


But so, how do You wire this into Your priorities? The thing is that if You follow the Lord, You already decouple Yourself from all the restraining mechanisms - like, at least enough to see ... what's going on. And if You can't ... then that's ... a You problem at first. In as far as it are Your priorities that stop You.

The mortal mind may yet 'demand' answers. Maybe as a means to safeguard Your priorities. To say: "Before I can let go of 'this' I want an answer for what might replace it". But ... it's all pointless. There's no two ways about it! Like also, You're not seriously looking for answers that a serious mind could give You! I mean, "imagine"! Imagine some person did their due diligence of studying the 'thing', to be a spiritual guide - and then You ask them about the economy and Your super special case of having problems letting go! I mean ... ludicrous!

It's kind of the same between Shrinks and Politics. Sure, the Therapist tries to help You and they can't change the world - but yet, a lot of what they could do ... stops there. So, they can only help You in as far as they don't need to change the world for You, or explain to You how it makes sense.

But sure, in a way we're wired into the whole debate around Socialism - where Socialism may overall be every strawman some critic could come up with; And ... some of them may be reasonable concerns ... but ... who has all the answers? I'm sure that there are some people out there; And I'm sure they need professional help of some kind. On the side of capitalism no such answers are required because if the discussion goes nowhere or even 10:0 turns in favor of socialism ... it doesn't change anything.

In other words: Those are Your priorities holding You back. For as long as there are those that You Lord upon the LORD - while the answer to all things politics and economy can be as simple as: JUST DO IT!


I mean, what is the economy but our agreement over Logistics?
And what is politics but the consolidation of our collective opinion?


And all the hickhack about incentives and ... stuff ... is really just a matter of work ethics and morality; which yea, in a slave economy has to be procured by all sorts of weirdness. But we don't want a slave economy to begin with ... so ... ciao bella ciao.


"I can't believe" how much of a goldmine this topic actually is/turned out to be.

Even when it comes to the implication or invocation of myself. I mean, You'd read it as via pragmatism so You'd wire me into what You think is necessary and then require 'proof of competence' from me. Similarly You see that I drink coffee and smoke and such, so, nothing that shows You that my priorities are with religion. Instead You see that my concept of priorities is tied to my Clarity and then You must assume that I require You to by tasks and mechanisms make it a thing; And I can see how that might strike someone as odd.

It all kind of makes sense now!

And so we're talking past each other because nothing I do or say really solves Your priority issues - at least for as long as I can't apply enough pressure to maybe get some of Your head latched onto the higher priorities of salvation or some such thing.

And actually its really simple - but then, everyone who "comes to their senses" is yet again facing the same issues, that ... there's this ... borderline moronic blindness ... that stops any and all reasonable conversation dead in its tracks because of ... some bullshit or some wickedly insane misconception.


There is then for instance this thing with Gender; Where I found it difficult to explain the benefits of Gender Aligning Surgery to You, in the context of myself having no real use for the surgical changes. But if You're fine with the way You are, in body and overall, where none of Your priorities seem to care about any of it ... yea, it may strike You as unreasonable. We might even call it 'normal'. But there's what is 'normal' as in face of adversity and then there's normal as in 'normalized'. And this norm of twisted priorities is 'normalized', but it shouldn't be!

And to patch it up with something from the scriptures; There's the matter of prioritizing the LORD. So, the sword of progress for instance; All the ways in which we are encouraged to defy our parents. From a "logical" perspective, where Your priorities are aligned with the world, it may seem unreasonable. It's kind of where things stop being harmless and start being serious. But You can't change it either. If a child is at odds with their parents because of gender or sexual orientation ... the mess already exists. So, whom do You blame? The truth or the parents? Or just all the people who acknowledge their gender or sexual orientation; Calling them groomers as the world would have it?

So, around some instances this topic may be uncomfortable - but we should all understand the significance of certain things; Such as truth. Reality. I would hold it as an individual value; And priority; And sorry if that then runs counter to some sensitivities that haven't come around properly dealing with it yet.

Sure, in the hands of a false prophet, these words may be horrifying. But why would I care about false prophets? Counter to me ... everyone is a false prophet!


And so, while You hold on to Your priorities You feel free to argue in their defense; And around that I'm no different than a false prophet. Sure thing. That because You haven't integrated the right things into Your psyche yet - and that perhaps because Your priorities disallow You from embracing certain things.

Once You embrace the LORD however, things ... can go smoothly from there. That is ... when walking in the Light and in Truth. When You're careful to not get it wrong; HE will take care of You! What society and culture evolves from it; That will be our thing. Naturally we'll "prioritize it" - as it is - just and simply - even so: A part of ourselves. And from however we want to matter therein, well, follow disciplinary priorities. And at first this would involve a lot of management and organization. Developing structures, finding ... "the things". And making them work. Coming to a sense of the whole - what else would or should we care about?
The mission? Well sure, it's implicit! But what good is the mission going to do for us, if the body is in shambles?


Well, I hope I could clear things up!
