City in shock

 

City in shock


Peshawar reels from latest bomb blast


The person responsible for the headline does not realize he has false perception and is courting mad perception.


Something has happened in Peshawar and his perception of what has happened is severely distorted.


What happened in Peshawar and should be reported is “Big blast in Peshawar” not city in shock or reeling. It is impossible that the city is in shock, many may be shocked but the city is not in shock nor is it reeling as exaggerated.


YOU ARE REPORTING ON AN EVENT AND THE RIGHT VIEW OF THAT EVENT IS SOMETHING LIKE ‘BIG BLAST IN PESHAWAR’ NOT ‘CITY IN SHOCK’. KEEP ON INTERPRETING EVENTS IN SUCH A PERVERSE WAY AND YOU WILL END MAD.


A course that cannot be sustained:


The human population is about six billion and this may be far more than the earth can comfortably sustain in terms of meaningful employment and consumption.


Human consumption can be examined and it can be objectively determined be essential or unessential, wasteful or non wasteful, meaningful or meaningless. What is meaningless, profligate consumption may far exceed what is essential and meaningful.


BECAUSE A LOT OF CONSUMPTION IS CRASS AND ABUSIVE, THERE IS A LOT OF ROOM FOR DECLINES IN CONSUMPTION THAT WILL IMPACT NEGATIVELY ON THE ECONOMY.


Far more people are employed un-essentially or redundantly than those who are unemployed because they are priced out of employment by rising costs of employment.


There are many people who are employed for bureaucratic reasons, who are dead weights sitting around doing nothing especially in government departments. There are many jobs that are meaningless, eg comedians, footballers, golfers or sportsmen, entertainers, service industries like pubs selling alcohol that are in truth meaningless and dispensable. All comedians and sportsmen will lose their jobs if no one was interested in jokes or meaningless sports.


IF THE EXORBITANT WAGES DEMANDED BY EMPLOYEES THAT ARE NEEDED TO SUPPORT THEIR LAVISH LIFESTYLES ARE ABOLISHED, FAR MORE PEOPLE CAN BE EMPLOYED. A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN BE EMPLOYED ON THE $400,000 WEEKLY WAGES OF A FOOTBALL STAR. NEVERTHELESS THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE EMPLOYED WHO SHOULD NOT BE EMPLOYED, WHO ARE MERELY THERE TO MAKE UP THE NUMBERS OR THEIR JOBS ARE IN TRUTH MEANINGLESS OR USELESS (EG SPORTSMENT, COMEDIANS) AND THESE FAR EXCEED THE EMPLOYMENT THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE AVAILABLE IF PEOPLE WERE NOT PRICED OUT OF THE LABOR MARKET BY HIGH WAGES.


THUS THERE IS ROOM FOR MUCH MORE DECLINE IN EMPLOYMENT WITH MORE WOE AND NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE ECONOMY.


How many road sweepers for one Ronaldo?


For the weekly wages of one Ronaldo ($200,000?), how many road sweepers can you employ? Look at the conditions of urban roads, there is a need for more sweepers to keep them clean.


There are many essential services to maintain hygiene and health and these are understaffed because the departments have no money that they would have if not for all the top earners who have grabbed a disproportionate share of the cake.


THUS IF ALL THESE UNRIGHTEOUS BIG EARNERS WERE TO BE DEPRIVED OF THEIR ABOMINABLE WAGES, MANY MORE PEOPLE CAN BE EMPLOYED WHERE IT MATTERS TO KEEP CITIES CLEAN AND FUNCTIONING.


IT IS BECAUSE OF THE EXCESSIVE DEMANDS OF A FEW THAT EVERYONE MUST SUFFER FROM POOR RUBBISH COLLECTION SERVICES AND PEOPLE WHO WANT WORK CANNOT GET WORK BECAUSE THERE IS NO MONEY TO EMPLOY THEM.


Chor: Credit card tax meant to promote prudent spending


KUALA LUMPUR: If banks were to “absorb” the RM50 service tax imposed on credit and charge cards, it would defeat the Government’s aim of reducing the use of the cards to prevent accumulation of bad debts.


What he does not realize is that he will go mad.


How can the tax promote prudent spending? Is a $50 tax a deterrent to non-prudent spending? Ban credit cards if you want to promote prudent spending.


If you speak you better understand what you are speaking. It is farfetched if not impossible that the tax is to promote prudent spending.


EXACTLY WHY THE GOVERNMENT IMPOSED THE TAX (EG IT NEEDS MONEY) CAN BE KNOWN AND WITHOUT KNOWING OR KNOWING SO YOU SAY IT IS TO PROMOTE PRUDENT SPENDING, YOU ARE COURTING AND WILL GET MADNESS.


Excuses:


Excuses are false reasons for doing something.


If as stated, the purpose is to discourage people from owning too many cards then the government should ban ownership of more than two cards or impose punitive fees on the third card rather than a blanket tax on all cards.


Thus reality does not tally with your explanation and false logic is the path to mad logic that will prove fatal one day.


Trust means you see things and do things without understanding:


People talk about ‘never trust anyone’ and ‘trust me’ without realizing it is an unwitting admission of not understanding what you see and doing without understanding.


The true nature of whatever is seen that includes the nature of the person before you and what he is saying or doing is plainly evident to all and it is their false perception that makes them not see what is plainly visible to all who see truly.


Thus if you understand what you see, you will understand the nature of the person before you and you will understand exactly what he is saying and implying, and thus understanding, what is there to trust or not trust him?


It is only because you see and you do not understand the nature of the person before you or you do not understand the nature of what he is proposing that you have to use force (never genuine reason) to blindly trust him.


If you always understand what you are doing, you only do things that you understand, what is there to trust anyone? It is because you do something without understanding or as you are asked by others that you must blindly use force to force yourself to do something blindly without understanding according to plan devised by the other person or yourself.


IF YOU NEVER DO THINGS YOU NEVER UNDERSTOOD, YOU NEVER DO THINGS OTHERS ASK WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING, TRUST DOES NOT COME INTO PLAY.


TRUST ONLY APPLIES IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHO YOU SEE AND WHAT HE WANTS, YOU ARE EAGER TO USE FORCE TO DO THINGS WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING AS ORDERED BY OTHERS.


TRUST IS ABOUT BLINDNESS, ABOUT PEOPLE WHO CANNOT SEE WHAT OR WHO IS BEFORE THEM AND IT IS ABOUT USING FORCE TO FOLLOW WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING WHAT IS INSTRUCTED.


The primary purpose of a tax is to collect money:


IT IS UNIVERSAL, CANNOT BE REFUTED BY ANYONE, THE ONLY RATIONAL AND PRIMARY OR MAIN PURPOSE FOR IMPOSING A TAX IS TO COLLECT REVENUE, ANYONE WHO DENIES THIS, SAYING IT IS TO PROMOTE PRUDENCE IS EITHER LYING OR PRACTICING FALSE LOGIC, COLLECTING MONEY FOR A FALSE PURPOSE THAT WILL END IN INSANITY. IN OTHER WORDS IF YOU INDEED COLLECTED A TAX NOT TO COLLECT MONEY YOU HAVE PERVERTED LOGIC.


The primary purpose of imposing a tax is to collect money, if it is not to collect money as the minister said but to promote prudence, then he has bizarre logic.


THEREFORE EITHER HE IS LYING TO DENY THE TRUE REASON FOR IMPOSING A TAX AND INSTEAD PROFFER A FALSE REASON THAT IT IS FOR YOUR BENEFIT, TO PROMOTE SPENDING PRUDENCE OR HE HAS ADVANCED FALSE LOGIC THAT A TAX IMPOSED IS NOT TO COLLECT MONEY, THE AMOUNT COLLECTED IS INSIGNIFICANT.


Why no financial meltdown yet:


The reason there is no meltdown so far is not because it was not a possibility or we are well on the way to rehabilitation but the reason is because of government hanky panky or cover up delaying what may be inevitable.


Quote: We’re not requiring banks to take write-downs, and we’ve suspended mark-to-market accounting so that banks can hide their losses. And we’re propping up banks that are borderline insolvent with billions of dollars in government assistance even though they’re not lending as they’re supposed to do. If we follow Japan’s model, we may have Japan’s results — 10 years of subpar economic growth and a lot of government spending on zombie banks that refuse to lend. The Nikkei stock index has fallen more than 70 percent from its 1989 peak as a consequence. That could be our future.


Bulls are celebrating the end of the recession and scoffing those who thought we were at the brink of disaster. But beneath the surface all is not well, the banks are sick and hiding their sickness with government connivance or coverup.


Denial & Delay Never Solves Any Problems:


Not requiring banks to take write-downs, suspending mark-to-market accounting so that banks can hide their losses and propping up banks that are borderline insolvent with billions of dollars in government assistance are forms of denial (cover-up) and delaying resolving the problems and they never resolved any problems, only serve to aggravate it.


There may be those who have false perception and logic that sometimes the acuteness or gravity of a problem necessitates delay in treating it and even hiding it from the public for fear of sparkling panic.


If you have a serious problem, the wise action is to swiftly identify and define it, address it even with a singleness of attention to resolve it as soon as possible.


Thus the response to the financial crisis in not requiring banks to take write-downs, suspending mark to market accounting and propping up banks reflects dishonesty, delaying action and denial that are the incorrect responses and so nothing meaningful is done to resolve the problem that will be storing up even more trouble for the future instead of ‘taking the bull by the horns’.


HUMANS NEITHER HAVE THE TRUE UNDERSTANDING NOR THE STOMACH OR COURAGE TO TAKE UNPALATABLE STEPS THAT ARE NECESSARY TO RESOLVE A POTENTIALLY FATAL CRISIS. IF THEY HAVE BEEN FINANCIALLY HONEST & RESPONSIBLE, THIS CRISIS WOULD NOT HAVE COME TO PASS, IF THEY ARE IRRESPONSIBLE AND DISHONEST THEN TO EXPECT IRRESPONSIBLE DISHONEST PEOPLE TO FIND AND FOLLOW A PATH OUT OF THE MIRE IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE.


THUS IF YOU THINK MANKIND IS TAKING MEANINGFUL STEPS TO RESOLVE THE CRISIS YOU MAY HAVE WRONG PERCEPTION BECAUSE ALL THE ACTIONS LIKE VARIOUS STIMULI, ZERO INTERESTS, CASH FOR CLUNKERS, SWEEPING BANK PROBLEMS UNDER THE CARPET ARE DESIGNED TO BUY TIME, HOPING FOR THE BEST, FOR RECOVERY TO SPONTANEOUSLY ARISE WHEN THE DENIAL AND DELAY CAUSES THE CANCER TO SPREAD EVEN FURTHER.


When you have a problem you must study it and identify it as clearly as possible and having identified the strands of the problem, you swiftly go to work to resolve the strands, you don’t hide the problem, prop up dead entities and change the rules to allow the dead to remain.


In the end it comes to politicians:


IN THE END IT IS POLITICIANS WHO ARE IN CHARGE AND ASSIGNED TO LEAD MANKIND OUT OF ANY FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC MIRE AND POLITICIANS ARE THE WORST KIND, DISHONEST, GREEDY, SCHEMING, THIEVING AND OFTEN DOWNRIGHT STUPID AND SO YOU CAN EXPECT THEM TO LEAD MANKIND INTO TOTAL COLLAPSE.


If a serious even potentially fatal financial and economic problem has arisen, who is the final authority through whom actions can be taken?


It is politicians and no one else who have the authority to take corrective actions and politicians are never very smart people and they are usually if not always greedy, avaricious, scheming even to abominable levels.


THUS FACED WITH A SERIOUS FINANCIAL CRISIS, IT IS POLITICIANS WHO ARE THE FINAL ARBITER AND AGENCY THROUGH WHICH ACTIONS CAN BE TAKEN TO CORRECTLY OR DISASTROUSLY WRONGLY ADDRESS THE PROBLEM.


AND POLITICIANS HAVE PROVEN THEMSELVES TO BE NOT VERY SMART, TO BE CRASS OR SHALLOW, TO TRY TO PANDER TO THE PUBLIC FOR POLITICAL GAINS RATHER THAN TAKE UNPOPULAR BUT NECESSARY PAINFUL MEASURES, TO PASS ON PROBLEMS TO THOSE WHO COME AFTER THEM, TO GRAB AS MUCH AS THEY CAN BEHIND THE SCENES, TO CONNIVE WITH BUSINESS PARTNERS TO MILK THE SYSTEM AND IT IS TO BE EXPECTED THAT THEY WILL LEAD MANKIND TO TOTAL DISASTER IF THEY HAVE NOT ALREADY.


Politicians have close ties with big business:


Whatever actions to address the financial and economic crisis must be initiated and undertaken by politicians, nobody else has the clout to do so.


And apart from being themselves greedy, scheming, thieving and often downright stupid politicians have close ties with businessmen and even scheme with them to milk the system.


What is good for big business is not necessarily good for society or the people although politicians will deny (credit card tax not because government wants money but to encourage prudence) and so you have a potent mix of conflict of interest and vested interests that will motivate politicians to seek actions that benefit them even if it is detrimental to the common good.


JESUS SAID MANKIND IS THE RULER OF THE EARTH AND POLITICIANS ARE THE TOPDOGS, THE RULERS OF THE RULER OF THE EARTH AND IT IS THROUGH THEM THAT ALL DECISIONS AND ACTIONS MUST EMANATE AND THERE CAN BE FEW WORST PEOPLE TO TRUST THAN POLITICIANS WHO SAY ONE THING AND DO ANOTHER THING WHILST THEIR MINDS ARE BESET BY SCHEMES FOR PERSONAL GAINS.


If politicians are wise:


Politicians and nobody else are responsible for the financial and economic crisis that has now engulfed the world. In the end it is the politicians who were permissive and even instigators in the courses of action that lead to this disastrous even potentially fatal situation.


If politicians are wise responsible people all this would not have happened.


If all this financial and economic mess has happened and politicians are responsible for it, they are not wise but foolish and to expect the foolish to deliver mankind from the mess they (politicians) led them into is unreasonable, false logic. It is to be expected that clueless, dishonest, thieving politicians will lead mankind into a total rout.


Margin financing:


Margin financing is not new, it was around in the 1920s and contributed to the severity of the stock market crash because many who could not meet margin requirements were forced sold that caused the market to plunge much quicker and deeper than it should.


Margin financing is just an extension of credit financing which allowed many to buy cars and fridges that they would not have been able to afford but could on hire purchase and this boosted the economy which was essentially spending what they have not yet earned.


Margin financing is evil and very dangerous and politicians who are to be blame for this crisis have shirked their duties in not banning it.


By putting down a payment of say 10%, finance can be arranged for the rest so that you can amplify your bets, buy more stock or futures or houses or whatever than you could otherwise could.


MARGIN FINANCING PUTS AT RISK MONEY BELONGING TO SAVERS IN BANKS THAT HAS BEEN LENT AS MARGIN FINANCE IN RISKY BETS THAT THE BORROWER MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RETURN. IF HE HAD THE MONEY HE WOULD NOT HAVE TO MARGIN FINANCE AND IT IS PRECISELY BECAUSE HE DOES NOT HAVE SO MUCH MONEY BUT HE GREEDILY WANTS TO MAKE MUCH MORE MONEY THAT HE RESORTS TO MARGIN FINANCE THAT SUITS BROKERS AND BANKERS WELL BECAUSE THEY CAN PROFIT FROM MORE BUSINESS.


MARGIN FINANCE MAY BE FAR MORE RIFE THAN PEOPLE IMAGINE AND IT IS EVIL AND RECKLESS BECAUSE IT PUTS IN JEOPARDY SAVERS’ MONEY IN BANKS THAT HAVE USED TO MARGIN FINANCE.


IN TODAY’S CLIMATE OF SHORTAGE OF CREDIT SURELY THE FIRST STEP IS TO STOP ALL LENDING FOR RISKY MARGIN PURPOSES (EG FOR OIL FUTURES, SHARES) AND DIVERT THE MONEY TO LEND TO SMALL BUSINESSES WHO NEED IT TO SURVIVE BUT BECAUSE MARGIN FINANCE IS MORE PROFITABLE AND EVEN MAJOR BANKS LIKE BARCLAYS, MORGAN STANLEY HAVE THEIR OWN SPECULATIVE MARGIN FINANCE TRADING, FECKLESS BANKERS CHOOSE TO CONTINUE WHILST GOOD BUSINESSES STARVE.


The crash of 1930’s did not come at once and there was a recovery lasting a year before an even deeper plunge. Many bargain hunters who came in to snap up cheap shares were burnt.


Apparently Joseph Kennedy of the Kennedy clan was one of the key syndicate players who manipulated shares and made a lot of money by crook during the 1920s boom. Thus it may be karma that his sons were killed or hurt by scandals.


Krugman’s deluded China gripe:


In a recent article Krugman criticized China for contributing to the global economic mess by refusing to revalue it currency that is pegged at an artificially low value to promote exports.


He even welcomed China depressing the dollar by selling USD because it would benefit US exports where others are worried. What he is emotionally saying like people who smile after they are slapped that what is bad is good.


What he is doing is blaming others for his accumulating insoluble debts.


It may be or is true China unfairly kept its controlled currency low but that has nothing to do with America piling up severe debts. If China had pegged at a higher level, some other Asian economy would have benefited from the competitive edge and rather than a whopping US deficit with China, it would be a whopping deficit with Vietnam or Indonesia.


The onus is still on the US to be responsible in not piling up so much debt and the likes of Greenspan even dismiss such record trade deficit after deficit as not of any concern.


What Krugman has conveniently forgotten is that the US is basically buying goods from the world with pieces of paper that is intrinsically worthless that it can keep printing and the US should be reprimanded severely for this, not allowed to do so because it clearly lacked the financial discipline to be accorded the privilege.


The rational distribution of credit:


Many viable businesses are complaining about the difficulty in getting credit and so in this climate of shortage of credit, it behoves politicians to conserve whatever supply of credit there is and direct it at essential and viable businesses.


In this climate there should be no lending for margin purposes to buy shares, commodities (oil, gold, even rice) and lending to credit card should be severely restricted because if you cannot afford to buy it then you should not depend so much on credit cards.


Yet savers’ money are still being diverted for margin finance and even the banks themselves are making fat profits from oil or gold speculating using margin finance themselves.


THIS WORLD AND ITS POLITICAL LEADERS MAY BE FAR MORE INCOMPETENT THAN PEOPLE PERCEIVE AND THE STEPS THEY TAKE ARE NOT ONLY USELESS, DELAYING THE INEVITABLE COLLAPSE BUT MAKE IT WORST. EXTENDING JOBLESS BENEFITS (AS HAS BEEN DONE REPEATEDLY IN THE US) MAY CUSHION THE BLOW BUT WHOSE MONEY OR IS IT PRINTED WORTHLESS MONEY THAT IS USED TO EXTEND THESE JOBLESS BENEFITS THAT KEEP THESE PEOPLE HAPPY?


Speculators should be kicked out of oil market:


Should oil prices soar again it could put the world economy ‘into a tailspin’ just as it might have partially triggered the recent slump.


PEOPLE WITH NO USE FOR OIL SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BUY OIL AND THIS WAS THE STATE BEFORE GOLDMAN SACHS AND MORGAN STANLEY SUCCESSFULLY LOBBIED FOR ITS REMOVAL. NOT ONLY ARE SPECULATORS ALLOWED INTO THE MARKET THEY ARE ARMED WITH MARGIN FINANCE THAT MOBILIZE PEOPLE’S MONEY TO MAKE PROFITS SO THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVE TO PAY MORE FOR THEIR OIL.


ONE OF THE FIRST STEPS TO RESCUE TO WORLD ECONOMY SHOULD BE TO BAN ALL OIL SPECULATION BUT POLITICIANS CANNOT DO SO BECAUSE THEY ARE IN COHORTS WITH SPECULATORS AND SPECULATORS MAY HOLD SUCH BIG POSITIONS THAT THEIR EXIT MAY CAUSE MASSIVE FINANCIAL LOSSES FOR THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. THUS THE SITUATION IS ALLOWED TO FESTER WITH THE WORLD ECONOMY AT RISK FROM RISING OIL PRICES.


Kick hubby out of PKR, Ezam tells Wan Azizah


Here again, Ezam is actually proving himself to be an evil unprincipled man.


When you advice someone it is because you know and your advice is good for the person.


Why should Ezam be so concerned about PKR’s future when he attacked it and left it? He cannot be sincere in his advice because he belongs to UMNO, PKR’s sworn enemy and so his advice is hypocritical.


BY LEAVING PKR TO JOIN UMNO AND HAVING CONDEMNED PKR MANY TIMES HE CANNOT BE ADVICING FOR THE GOOD OF PKR TO TELL IT WHAT TO DO AND SO HE IS PROVING HIMSELF TO BE A LIAR. IF ANWAR IS A LIABILITY EZAM SHOULD HOPE ANWAR REMAIN FOREVER IN PKR.


WHAT PKR DOES IS NONE OF HIS BUSINESS AND HE IS PRACTICING CONTROLLED MADNESS IN THE NAME OF SPITE TO DABBLE AND UNCONTROLLED MADNESS IS HIS DESTINY.


Divisive speech can send you (and Ezam) to hell:


According to the Buddha, divisive speech can send you to hell. Ezam’s advice for Azizah to sack her husband is unlikely if not impossible to be sincere because he is with UMNO, PKR’s enemy and what he is saying that he and you do not realize is divisive and he can land in hell, at minimum the animal world, never heaven.


Greed, hate and delusion and the five lower fetters:


The Buddha said in the end it is greed, hate and delusion that ends in death for the being.


The five lower fetters are sensuality, ill will, doubt and uncertainty, faith in rites and rules and self identity views. It is the five lower fetters that detain foolish beings in the lower realms that lead to repetitive dying.


Sensuality is about liking for sensory experiences or greed for sight, sound, smell, taste and touch.


Ill will is hate or wanting to harm others that necessitate harming self and death.


Because rituals and rules are false, faith in rites and rules are forms of delusion, perceiving what is false in true. All is not self is the truth, not a command and so the person who has self identity views has delusion, self identity views is a form of delusion.


Doubt and uncertainty are false emotional meaningless states that are forms of delusion because people subject to doubt and uncertainty perceive their doubt and uncertainty as meaningful, natural when they are conditioned, false and meaningless.


Thus to say that greed, hate and delusion leads to death is another way of saying the lower fetters detain one in the lower realms and hence death.


Where is God?


 


The answer is no one knows, not even the gods of Brahma’s retinue but when signs appear, light shines forth, and a radiance appears, Brahma will appear. He may be nowhere and everywhere.


The Buddha said God is the father of all that have been and shall be just as Jesus called God the Father. Hence anyone who says there is no God in Buddhism is misrepresenting the Buddha.


"Then the monk attained to such a state of concentration that the way leading to the gods of the retinue of Brahma appeared in his centered mind. So he approached the gods of the retinue of Brahma and, on arrival, asked them, 'Friends, where do these four great elements -- the earth property, the liquid property, the fire property, and the wind property -- cease without remainder?'


"When this was said, the gods of the retinue of Brahma said to the monk, 'We also don't know where the four great elements...cease without remainder. But there is Brahma, the Great Brahma, the Conqueror, the Unconquered, the All-Seeing, All-Powerful, the Sovereign Lord, the Maker, Creator, Chief, Appointer and Ruler, Father of All That Have Been and Shall Be. He is higher and more sublime than we. He should know where the four great elements...cease without remainder.'


"'But where, friends, is the Great Brahma now?'


"'Monk, we also don't know where Brahma is or in what way Brahma is. But when signs appear, light shines forth, and a radiance appears, Brahma will appear. For these are the portents of Brahma's appearance: light shines forth and a radiance appears.'


"Then it was not long before Brahma appeared.


"So the monk approached the Great Brahma and, on arrival, said, 'Friend, where do these four great elements -- the earth property (matter as solids), the liquid property (matter as liquid state), the fire property (energy), and the wind property (matter as gas state) -- cease without remainder?'


"When this was said, the Great Brahma said to the monk, 'I, monk, am Brahma, the Great Brahma, the Conqueror, the Unconquered, the All-Seeing, All-Powerful, the Sovereign Lord, the Maker, Creator, Chief, Appointer and Ruler, Father of All That Have Been and Shall Be.'


A second time, the monk said to the Great Brahma, 'Friend, I didn't ask you if you were Brahma, the Great Brahma, the Conqueror, the Unconquered, the All-Seeing, All-Powerful, the Sovereign Lord, the Maker, Creator, Chief, Appointer and Ruler, Father of All That Have Been and Shall Be. I asked you where these four great elements -- the earth property, the liquid property, the fire property, and the wind property -- cease without remainder.'


"A second time, the Great Brahma said to the monk, 'I, monk, am Brahma, the Great Brahma, the Conqueror, the Unconquered, the All-Seeing, All-Powerful, the Sovereign Lord, the Maker, Creator, Chief, Appointer and Ruler, Father of All That Have Been and Shall Be.'


"A third time, the monk said to the Great Brahma, 'Friend, I didn't ask you if you were Brahma, the Great Brahma, the Conqueror, the Unconquered, the All-Seeing, All-Powerful, the Sovereign Lord, the Maker, Creator, Chief, Appointer and Ruler, Father of All That Have Been and Shall Be. I asked you where these four great elements -- the earth property, the liquid property, the fire property, and the wind property -- cease without remainder.'


"Then the Great Brahma, taking the monk by the arm and leading him off to one side, said to him, 'These gods of the retinue of Brahma believe, "There is nothing that the Great Brahma does not know. There is nothing that the Great Brahma does not see. There is nothing of which the Great Brahma is unaware. There is nothing that the Great Brahma has not realized." That is why I did not say in their presence that I, too, don't know where the four great elements...cease without remainder. So you have acted wrongly, acted incorrectly, in bypassing the Blessed One in search of an answer to this question elsewhere. Go right back to the Blessed One and, on arrival, ask him this question. However he answers it, you should take it to heart.'


"Then -- just as a strong man might extend his flexed arm or flex his extended arm -- the monk disappeared from the Brahma world and immediately appeared in front of me. Having bowed down to me, he sat to one side. As he was sitting there he said to me, 'Venerable sir, where do these four great elements -- the earth property, the liquid property, the fire property, and the wind property -- cease without remainder?'


"When this was said, I said to him, 'Once, monk, some sea-faring merchants took a shore-sighting bird and set sail in their ship. When they could not see the shore, they released the shore-sighting bird. It flew to the east, south, west, north, straight up, and to all the intermediate points of the compass. If it saw the shore in any direction, it flew there. If it did not see the shore in any direction, it returned right back to the ship. In the same way, monk, having gone as far as the Brahma world in search of an answer to your question, you have come right back to my presence.


"'Your question should not be phrased in this way: Where do these four great elements -- the earth property, the liquid property, the fire property, and the wind property -- cease without remainder? Instead, it should be phrased like this:


Where do water, earth, fire, & wind
have no footing?
Where are long & short, coarse & fine,
fair & foul, name & form
brought to an end?


"'And the answer to that is:


Consciousness without feature,
without end, luminous all around:
Here water, earth, fire, & wind have no footing.
Here long & short coarse & fine
fair & foul name & form
are all brought to an end.
With the cessation of [the activity of] consciousness
each is here brought to an end.'"


That is what the Blessed One said. Gratified, Kevatta the householder delighted in the Blessed One's words.


Land Rover adds style to function:


This is an advertisement that implies style is important, meaningful, a selling point and what distinguishes Land Rover when it is nonsense.


Style is what is for show to impress or stir the owner’s mental force to be attracted.


If something is meaningful, amenities in the cabin and how they are shaped are functional, serves purposes it is not style but substance. It is only if what is supplied or the way it is shaped (eg seat) is of no purpose except to attract or be impressive is it called style. Thus style is useless, for show and you will be a fool to buy a car for its style and you are a fool to tout its style as a selling point.


US housing upturn flash in pan:


Recent figures showed a housing upturn in price and volume in the US and it caused celebration amongst optimists and politicians.


But this upturn is a flash in the pan, artificial, engineered by government action and will not last.


It was because of government tax breaks that subsidized house purchases by as much as $40,000 per unit that many were enticed to buy and rushed to meet the dateline. But these bargain hunters do not realize they can be burnt should prices decline further without government subsidies (and if government keeps subsidizing, where does the money come from, from the sky?) or they become unemployed.


Another wave of defaults have already started in prime loans that became unserviceable as people lost jobs and so it can be expected that there will be another crisis for banks, housing as prices may drop even further.


GOVERNMENT TAX CUTS TO STIMULATE DEMAND FOR HOUSES ARE ACTUALLY NOT SOLUTIONS TO THE PROBLEM, THEY ARE DESPERATE MEASURES TO PROP UP THE MARKET ARTIFICIALLY THAT CANNOT BE SUSTAINED AND WHEN THIS SUPPORT IS WITHDRAWN, RELAPSE WILL OCCUR AND THE GOVERNMENT HAS WASTED TAX PAYERS’ MONEY PROPPING THE MARKET.


Chairman Mao and the carnage by politicians:


There are those who perceive that Chairman Mao’s capricious policies and endeavours cost China dearly in terms of stagnation and even death through starvation for millions. His disastrous Great Leap Forward (leave alone the Cultural Revolution and other bungles if you examine) mobilized peasants to increase steel production even smelting cooking utensils in backyard foundries that neglected agriculture and led to mass famine and death.


In the same way, politicians, in particular elected politicians are foremost to blame for the financial and economic mess today.


It was Reagan and Thatcher who ‘liberalized’ markets (freed from controls or rules) by such acts as the British ‘big bang’.


IT IS POLITICIANS WHO ARE FOREMOST TO BLAME FOR THE CURRENT FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC CRISIS IN BEING PERMISSIVE OF EXCESSES TO BE INTRODUCED (EG OPENING OIL MARKET TO SPECULATORS AT THE BEHEST OF GOLDMAN SACHS), WHO DID NOT TAKE ACTIONS TO CURTAIL BALLOONING TRADE DEFICITS AND EXCESSIVE CREDIT CARD DEBTS AND PERMITTED A MONSTER SHARE AND PROPERTY BUBBLE TO INFLATE, WHO THEMSELVES WERE FEEDING AT THE TROUGH, PLUNDERING THROUGH CORRUPTION FAR MORE THAN VISIBLE TO THE PUBLIC AND NOW WITH THE CRISIS, THEY ARE BARKING UP THE WRONG TREE WITH DESPERATE MEASURES THAT SERVE TO PROLONG THE BUBBLES AND MAKE IT WORSE.


THE FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC CRISIS THAT MAY BE FATAL ARE NOT BLAMELESS BUT FULLY BLAME WORTHY AND FOREMOST TO BE BLAMED ARE FOOLISH, DELUDED GREEDY CORRUPT POLITICIANS.


Hitler, Stalin & Mao:


Hitler, Stalin & Mao were all modern rulers and in their own ways politicians.


Just as they individually wreaked tremendous harm in suffering, loss of life and economic woe, in the same way present day politicians throughout the world are not to be underestimated for the role they played in causing financial and economic carnage in the world.


ANYONE WHO SAYS NOBODY IS TO BLAME OR EVERYBODY TO BLAME FOR THE FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC CRISIS DOES NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT HAS HAPPENED. POLITICIANS ARE PRIMARILY TO BE BLAMED FOR WHAT HAS HAPPENED AND THEY ARE HEADED EVEN FOR HELL.


How God is nowhere and everywhere:


It is again a manifestation of their false perception that emotional stylish people are incredulous, cannot understand how it is possible for God to everywhere or nowhere when the opposite may be the case.


“How can God be everywhere” is a thought, and thinking is a dead end, going around in circles and false. Because thinking is false, a dead end, the thought is false.


According to the Buddha, whatever is fabricated, and this world is fabricated or created, is false, an illusion, a product of consciousness which is itself false and not permanent or immutable.


Thus this world does not exist except in consciousness, with the end of consciousness this world and space ceases to exist.


Because this world does not truly exist, it exists only in consciousness, it is an abiding illusion and delusion and false perception of mesmerized emotional people that this world is so real it must exist, it is possible for a being eg God to exist apart from space and thus not enmeshed in space He can be nowhere and everywhere. It is only a being who is deluded, whose consciousness is absorbed falsely in a person spatialized locality who cannot be everywhere and nowhere.


IT BOGGLES YOUR IMAGINATION AND THEREFORE THINKING AS TO HOW ANY BEING CAN BE EVERYWHERE AND NOWHERE, BUT YOUR IMAGINATION OR THINKING IS ITSELF DELUDED AND ULTIMATELY FALSE (ALL THINKING IS ULTIMATELY FALSE, A DEAD END, NO THINKING IS TRUE COMPARED WITH THINKING), THIS WORLD DOES NOT EXIST EXCEPT IN CONSCIOUSNESS WHICH IS ITSELF NOT IMMUTABLE AND BECAUSE THIS WORLD DOES NOT TRULY EXIST, IT EXISTS ONLY IN CONSCIOUSNESS IT IS POSSIBLE FOR HIGHER BEINGS TO EXIST NOWHERE AND EVERYWHERE.


If space was true:


If space was true, exists, not a creation of consciousness then it would not be possible for anyone including God to be anywhere and nowhere.


But because space is not true, it does not exist but it is an illusion of consciousness, it is possible for beings to exist apart from space and thus existing apart from space, these beings can be anywhere and nowhere unlike mesmerized beings enmeshed in space who do not realize they are prisoners rather than free beings they foolishly imagine themselves to be.


Renong & the Ministry of Health:


An old GP at a recent meeting suggests that Renong, a company linked to the ruling party still supplies drugs in bulk to the ministry of health at prices above market rate.


This is a form of crony capitalism in which politicians once elected secretly act to the detriment of the public by rewarding indirectly through proxies contracts that clearly favoured them.


The net effect of such contracts is to transfer wealth from the system to an elite few so that acting in cohort in many different schemes involving many different politicians it has the effect of increasingly siphoning off public wealth into the hands of the few so that the system will become increasingly impoverished whilst these few thieves become so wealthy they cannot spend enough to stimulate the economy.


SUCH PLUNDERING BY POLITICIANS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD (THAT MAY INCLUDE BLAIR, CLINTON AND OBAMA) IS NOT WITHOUT SERIOUS FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC REPERCUSSIONS BUT OVER TIME IT SEQUESTERS WEALTH IN A VESTED FEW & TRANSFERS PEOPLE’S SAVINGS LENT BY FECKLESS BANKERS WITH THE CONNIVANCE OF POLITICIANS TO FOOLISH BORROWERS INTO THE HANDS OF THE CORRUPT FEW.


The Penang Bridge, Karak Highway, swathes of the NS highways were built with public money but handed (without adequate compensation) to a company linked to the ruling party to collect toll at exorbitant rates over many years. Instead the government even supplied loans and guaranteed UEM profits when it undertook construction of the NSHW.


Consumer confidence on the rise:


YOU MAY HAVE VALID REASONS TO BE CONFIDENT IN YOUR CONSUMPTION BUT ONCE YOUR CONFIDENCE IS STIRRED, YOUR MENTAL FORCE IS STIRRED AND IT (AND NO LONGER REASON) THEN BECOMES THE DICTATOR AND DETERMINANT OF YOUR SPENDING AND BECAUSE CONFIDENCE IS ABOUT BLIND FORCE, IT IS A RECIPE FOR EXCESSES AND THE PATH TO RUIN.


Consumer confidence is surveyed regularly and is one of the leading indicators of future economic trend.


What is consumer confidence?


If you think consumer confidence is based on reason, understandable, you have wrong view or is deluded.


Confidence is not about reason but blind emotion that becomes the drive to consume if optimistic and refrain if pessimistic.


Even if the confidence is based on reasonable factors eg your job is not under threat or you are not heavily in debt, why should you stir your mental force to become confident?


Even if your confidence in consumption is based on reasonable factors like good income and low debts, once emotion is stirred to become confident you are like the man who has partaken alcohol, the ‘feel good’ factor becomes your blind drive to consume that may then become detached from reality and thus heedless, leads to overspending and disaster.


EVEN IF YOUR SPENDING CONFIDENCE IS BASED ON REASON (GOOD INCOME), ONCE STIRRED, IT BECOMES THE BLIND DRIVE TO SPEND THAT MAY LEAD TO EXCESSES THAT YOU MAY RUE IN REGRET LATER. THE WISE PERSON IS NOT OPTIMISTIC WHEN TIMES ARE GOOD, HE ONLY SPENDS ON WHAT IS REQUIRED, NOT BECAUSE HE IS CONFIDENT OR BOOSTED BY ‘FEEL GOOD’ FACTOR THAT SPURS HIM TO SPEND LAVISHLY THAT MAY BECOME ADDICTIVE, SPENDING FOR THE SAKE OF SPENDING EXPOSING TO DEBTS THAT MAY BECOME TOO BIG. THUS CONFIDENT, THE FOOL THINKS HE CAN MANAGE IS EVER INCREASING DEBTS. IF HE WAS NEITHER CONFIDENT NOR PESSIMISTIC, HE IS NOT BLINDED BY EMOTION AND THEREFORE SPENDS WISELY WHEN THERE IS A NEED.


THUS CONSUMER CONFIDENCE IS NOT SOMETHING VIRTUOUS BUT IS A VICE, IS ACKNOWLEDGING THAT YOUR SPENDING IS DRIVEN BY FORCE OR OPTIMISM OR ATTITUDE NOT BY CASE BY CASE REASON.


Oil prices up sharply on US growth:


Why should oil prices rise sharply on news of US growth?


If it is driven by true demand how can it rise sharply just on the news?


THE PRICE RISE CANNOT BE DUE TO DEMAND WHICH TAKES TIME TO EFFECT BUT THE PRICE RISE IS DRIVEN BY SPECULATORS. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU ARE PURELY SPECULATING OR AN END USER JUMPING IN TO BUY TO LOCK IN A LOWER PRICE, IN BOTH CASES YOU ARE STILL SPECULATING, DRIVING UP PRICES THAT WILL END IN CONSUMERS PAYING FOR IT. EVEN IF THE TRADER BOUGHT THE PETROL CHEAP WHEN PRICES RISE IN THE FUTURE HE IS UNLIKELY PASS IT ON TO CONSUMERS BUT GOBBLE IT AS EXTRA PROFIT.


IT IS THE COMBINED ACTIONS OF PURE SPECULATORS IN THE MARKET FOR PROFIT AND END USERS (EG AIRLINES) BOOKING OIL IN ANTICIPATION OF FURTHER RISES OR FALLS THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR EXCESSIVE PRICES THAT ARE AT THE EXPENSE OF CONSUMERS.


THE ONLY REASON OIL CAN RISE SHARPLY ON THE NEWS OF US GROWTH IS BECAUSE THERE ARE SPECULATORS ON THE MARKET WAITING TO PROFIT OR CUT LOSSES AT PRICE IMPACTING NEWS.


Greed and a gamble:


It is greed for gain never genuine reason that drives market players (including pure speculators) to hastily jump in to buy pushing up or bidding up prices in the gamble that oil will be worth more when delivery time comes and they can pocket the difference. And when it does become more expensive in the future it is the consumer who pays for it and so such speculation is at the expense of consumers.


It is a gamble because it can backfire, prices may fall in the future with loss due to the speculator who bet it would rise.


GENUINE REASON WILL NEVER TELL ANYONE TO RUSH IN TO BUY OIL AT A RISING PRICE, IT IS ONLY GREED FOR GAIN THAT WILL DRIVE A SPECULATOR TO JUMP IN TO SNAP OIL AT A RISING PRICE AND THROW CAUTION TO THE WIND. IT IS A GAMBLE BECAUSE OIL PRICES MAY FALL OR BE UNCHANGED.


IT IS ALL THESE PEOPLE JUMPING IN TO BUY OIL THAT IS THE CAUSE OF CONSUMERS HAVING TO PAY MORE FOR OIL THAT CAN IMPACT ON THE ECONOMY AND POLITICIANS ARE SHIRKING THEIR DUTIES NOT BANNING PEOPLE WITH NO USE FOR OIL FROM BUYING OIL.


An excuse, not reason to raise oil prices:


The only true reason for oil to increase in price is if production costs have risen, increased demand due to US growth is not a true reason (but an excuse or justification) for oil to increase in price and so if you subscribe to that perception, you have false perception and logic that will end in mad perception and logic.


It is never specific to the occasion genuine understanding but mad rules rehashed logic that drives a person to jump in to snap up oil at rising prices in anticipation of even higher prices in the future.


The rule logic that you can program a computer to similarly execute is US growth equals increased demand equals higher oil prices.


EVEN IF OIL SUPPLY BECOMES ONE LAST DROP, THERE IS NO REASON FOR IT TO RISE IN PRICE BECAUSE THE COST OF THAT LAST DROP REMAINS THE SAME AND AT THE UNCHANGED PRICE THERE IS STILL CONSIDERABLE PROFIT FOR THE SELLER SO WHY SHOULD OIL RISE IN PRICE EXCEPT TO REFLECT PARASITISM.


EVEN IF DEMAND RISES TREMENDOUSLY OR WHAT REMAINS IS A LAST DROP OF OIL THERE IS NO VALID REASON FOR THE PRICE OF OIL TO RISE IF PRODUCTION COSTS REMAIN THE SAME, IT IS EXCUSES AND PROFITEERING THAT CAUSES OIL PRICES TO RISE ON INCREASING DEMAND OR DWINDLING SUPPLY AND SO ANYONE WHO BUYS PUSHING UP PRICES JUST ON THE NEWS OF US GROWTH IS EXHIBITING FALSE RULES ROTE LOGIC THAT WILL END IN INSANITY.


THE ONLY GENUINE REASON FOR OIL PRICES TO RISE IS IF PRODUCTION COSTS RISES AND THAT WILL ONLY COME INTO EFFECT WITH NEW STOCKS OF OIL.


THUS TO REASON THAT PRICES WILL RISE IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE OF INCREASED DEMAND IS TO EXHIBIT FALSE LOGIC THAT WILL END IN MAD LOGIC, YOU AND HE DOES NOT BELIEVE.


GREED ACCORDING TO THE BUDDHA IS ONE OF THREE FACTORS (HATE AND DELUSION) THAT LEADS TO DEATH AND TORMENT.


Is it true or not?


Is it true or not the cost of production for oil remains unchanged after the announcement of US growth that will lead to increased demand for oil?


If cost of production of oil remains unchanged, would an increase in price reflect increase in profit for someone in the chain either producer, speculator or oil company that will have to be borne by consumers?


If you agree that is true then increases in oil prices merely on news of US growth is unjustified, a reflection of false logic.


IF YOU SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH OIL PRICES RISING ON REPORTS OF US GROWTH, YOU HAVE FALSE PERCEPTION AND LOGIC, IF YOU JUMP IN TO BUY OIL PUSHING UP OIL PRICES ON ANTICIPATION OF PRICE RISES WITH INCREASE DEMAND, YOU ARE ACTING ON FALSE LOGIC BECAUSE THE ONLY VALID OR TRUE REASON OIL PRICES SHOULD RISE IS IF PRODUCTION COSTS HAVE INCREASED. WITHOUT PRODUCTION COSTS INCREASING ANY PRICE RISES INCREASES PROFITS TO THOSE IN THE CHAIN OF RETAIL AT THE EXPENSE OF CONSUMERS.


THUS BECAUSE PRODUCTION COSTS HAVE REMAINED LARGELY UNCHANGED IN RECENT YEARS, THE PRICES RISES HAVE BEEN UNREASONABLE, BASED ON EXCUSES OR PROFITEERING FOR THOSE INVOLVED (WONDER WHY ESSO, SHELL, BP ARE ALL REPORTING RECORD PROFITS?).


Name me one economist or person who has reasoned thus. If you agree what I said makes sense, is true, how come no one in this world reasons thus? Is it as Jesus said, the world neither sees nor knows the truth?


Listen to Ezam and sack Anwar, Nalla tells Wan Azizah


If you do not already know the credentials or integrity of Nalla this should confirm that he is a fool putting his neck on the chopping board.


Why should he, a sworn enemy of PKR be so interested in the wellbeing of PKR?


By similarly trying to divide Anwar and Wan Azizah, he is guilty of divisive speech that the Buddha said can send him to hell. Anyone who is headed for hell cannot be good for you or anybody and so you can say Nalla is up to no good.


The cost to consumers of speculation:


Oil used to sell at $25 per barrel and now it sells at $80 or more.


Assuming a profit of $10 when the price was $25 and the cost of production remains the same as $15 per barrel, the profit margin today is $65 per barrel.


This is the price to pay for allowing speculators into the oil market and most of the extra profit goes to oil producers and oil companies.


But why would speculators push up prices when the end benefit is to oil producers and companies?


Speculators are like sharks that attack prey, take a few chunks and leave the rest to scavengers. The reason speculators benefit oil producers is because they can only profit by price changes and so they keep pushing up prices insanely as much as they possibly can that the market can sustain and profit when they sell on at a higher price. When prices drop they may come in to support to push prices up again for a handsome profit margin.


SPECULATORS DO NOT CARE IF THE BIGGER, MAJOR AND PERMANENT BENEFACTORS OF PRICE INCREASES ARE OIL PRODUCERS OR CONSUMERS SUFFER FROM HEAVY PRICE INCREASES, ALL THEY CARE IS PRICE CHANGES, USUALLY UPWARDS SO THAT THEY CAN PROFIT FROM THE DIFFERENCES. IT JUST HAPPENS THAT OIL PRODUCERS ARE THE RECIPIENTS OF THE LARGESSE OF THEIR KILLINGS AND CONSUMERS ARE THE VICTIMS.


THUS IF YOU HAVE NO USE FOR A COMMODITY OR ASSET EG A PARTICULAR SHARE, PROPERTY OR COMMODITY, YOU ARE IN THERE JUST TO PROFIT FROM PRICE RISES, YOU ARE A SPECULATOR AND NO MATTER HOW YOU MAY DENY THERE IS A PLACE IN PERDITION EVEN HELL FOR YOU. YOU HAVE NOT REACHED PERDITION OR HELL YET SO DO NOT BE SO SURE YOU WON’T MIND IT.


Both of which:


Quote: Not having to concentrate on acceleration meant there was more time to appreciate the steering and braking, both of which have a quality feel you'd associate with a more expensive saloon.


A lot of people don’t realize they are longwinded, a form of using force, according to a plan, to prolong or say what is totally unnecessary.


‘Of which’ is not necessary, is a learnt nicety that is intended to sound impressive. Leave out the ‘of which’ and ‘both have a quality feel’ misses no meaning.


If it is totally unnecessary to say ‘of which’ and you say it, you perceive it as necessary, you have false perception that will end in your mad perception.


Shipping sentiments not rosy:


There are those who tout China as the new locomotive but notes at a Singapore shipping convention suggest things are bad. Demand for commodities by China may not reflect booming or recovery but storing commodity.


Quote: Mr Feer said: 'Things are not as bad as they were but they are still not back to normal. Traditional pricing relationships are still out of alignment and indicate that 'normal economics' is still some way off. Some of the data we are seeing, particularly in China, does not fit into the overall picture very well.'


While some of the data from China is contradictory, and some frankly unbelievable, a picture emerged of a country saving like mad and stocking up with commodities while they are cheap. Neither of these activities heralds a China-led recovery.


Mr Bowring also pointed to a European Commission appraisal that ruled out any long-term return to the sort of demand growth from Western consumers that shipping, especially container shipping, depended on during the good years.


Why won’t Ezam & Nalla say it?


Ezam and Nalla imply that Anwar is a closet homosexual and is about to be exposed but they would not say it, but depend on innuendos to do the job for them.


Why won’t they say it and why is it likely if not certainly they are slanderous?


If you understand what Jesus said that a bad tree can never bear good fruit, nothing good can come out of anybody who embraces UMNO which is a representation of corruption and deception and so anyone associating with UMNO cannot bear good fruit.


They dare not accuse Anwar directly of being a closet homosexual because then they can be sued and if they cannot provide evidence they are liable for damages.


If there is irrefutable evidence Anwar is a closet homosexual then Anwar’s enemies would not have to use fakes in Azizan (who testified three times in court Anwar did not sodomize him) and Saiful (who should have been coached by police to go straight to the hospital with his anus full of Anwar’s sperm).


THEREFORE, EZAM AND NALLA’S ACCUSATIONS ARE SCURRILOUS, DEPENDING ON INNUENDOS BECAUSE THEY CANNOT BACK UP THEIR CLAIMS WITH IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE. IF THERE WAS IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE THE GOVERNMENT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE FIRST TO ‘NAIL ANWAR WITH IT’.


The folly and obsession with Anwar’s sexuality:


So what if Anwar is a closet homosexual?


It is only because it is a crime in Malaysia and so Anwar can be jailed for it, there is pretentious social stigmatization here and its revelation can destroy Anwar politically that there is an obsession with his alleged homosexuality.


THUS THE PURPOSE FOR BRINGING UP ANWAR’S HOMOSEXUALITY REPETITIVELY IS DRIVEN BY ILLOGIC, BY ILL WILL TO DESTROY ANWAR. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO DESTROY ANWAR POLITICALLY WHAT DOES IT MATTER IF HE IS A CLOSET HOMOSEXUAL?


THUS WHOEVER BRINGS UP ANWAR’S HOMOSEXUALITY IS DRIVEN BY ILL WILL THAT IS THE WAY TO PERDITION AND IF HE HAS NO IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE AND YET HE INSINUATES THUS HE IS GUILTY OF AN EVEN BIGGER CRIME.


EVEN IF ANWAR IS A HOMOSEXUAL THERE IS NO NEED TO PUBLICIZE IT BUT THE REASON IS ALWAYS ILL WILL TO DESTROY ANWAR AND YOU HAVE KARMA DOING SO EVEN IF ANWAR IS A HOMOSEXUAL.


IF YOU HAVE NO EVIDENCE YOU ARE ASKING FOR EVEN BIGGER TROUBLE MAKING A SERIOUS ACCUSATION THAT DIVIDES THE PUBLIC FROM ANWAR WITHOUT BASIS.


THE ISSUE OF ANWAR’S SEXUAL PREDILECTION IS A SIDE ISSUE, OF NO ONE’S CONCERN EXCEPT THAT HE CAN BE JAILED AND SHAMED IN THE EYES OF THE PUBLIC. THUS ANYONE WHO IS OBSESSED WITH ANWAR’S HOMOSEXUALITY TO KEEP HARPING ON IT HAS SERIOUS FALSE PERCEPTION THAT WILL END IN MAD PERCEPTION.


Good credibility?


Nalla & Ezam have perverted logic that because they had long associations with PKR and they know Anwar well, they have good credibility that the public can trust and similarly the public is gullible to buy their arguments.


IF ANWAR AND PKR IS BAD, NALLA AND EZAM LEFT BECAUSE THEY ARE GOOD AND CANNOT STAND THINGS AT PKR AND ANWAR, WHY HAVE THEY JOINED UMNO THAT IS OBJECTIVELY EVIL? UNLESS YOU PERCEIVE UMNO AS GOOD, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE THAT A GOOD MAN WILL LEAVE ONE BAD PARTY FOR ANOTHER BAD PARTY BUT IT IS POSSIBLE A BAD MAN WILL LEAVE ONE BAD OR GOOD PARTY FOR ANOTHER BAD PARTY.


THUS FOR THE PERSON WITH TRUE LOGIC, THE REASON EZAM AND NALLA LEFT PKR FOR UMNO IS BECAUSE THEY ARE BAD, NOT GOOD AND THERE ARE MATERIAL INDUCEMENTS FOR THEIR SWITCH.


 


Knowing Anwar well is not a true reason to believe you:


No matter how much you swear it is true or insist you know Anwar well, swearing and knowing Anwar well is not a true reason to accept what is touted as true, you can know a person well and still maliciously tell a lie, only the presentation of objective irrefutable evidence of Anwar’s homosexuality can the public truly know Anwar is homosexual. It reflects the gullibility of the public in general that wicked people try to exploit that they swear and they proffer knowing well as reasons you should believe what they say and thus steer away from Anwar.


Thus anyone who proffers knowing Anwar well as reason for believing what they say is practicing false logic that will end in mad logic, they are creating karma for wanting others to accept as true what they cannot know as true without presenting objective evidence.


BECAUSE NALLA AND EZAM HAVE NOT PROVIDED OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE AS TO ANWAR’S HOMOSEXUALITY, THEY HAVE FURTHER SCURRILOUSLY RESORTED TO INNUENDOS INSTEAD OF MAKING DIRECT ACCUSATIONS THEY HAVE PROVEN THEMSELVES TO BE UNRIGHTEOUS, DISCREDITED THEMSELVES AND INSTEAD IF THEY PERCEIVE THEMSELVES AS RIGHTEOUS AND TRUSTWORTHY THAT IS DELUSION THAT IS THE PATH TO INSANITY.


IF THE POPULACE IS LILY WHITE IN VIRTUE THEN A HOMOSEXUAL ANWAR IS UNFIT TO LEAD IT, IF THE POPULATION IS UNCLEAN THEN A HOMOSEXUAL ANWAR IS FIT TO LEAD IT AND IT REFLECTS HYPOCRISY TO EXPECT A SPOTLESS POLITICIAN TO LEAD UNCLEAN PEOPLE.


NO ONE HAS TRUE REASON TO BE SO INTERESTED IN ANWAR’S HOMOSEXUALITY, IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS AND IF YOU THINK IT IS YOUR BUSINESS THEN YOU MAY HAVE FALSE PERCEPTION THAT WILL END IN MAD PERCEPTION. THE FALSE REASON FOR THIS PREOCCUPATION IS BECAUSE ANWAR IS A HIGH PROFILE POLITICIAN AND DANGER TO UMNO, HOMOSEXUALITY IS A JAILABLE CRIME AND HAS SOCIAL STIGMA ATTACHED AND THEREFORE IT IS A USEFUL AVENUE TO DISCREDIT AND EVEN JAIL HIM. BECAUSE THERE IS NO TRUE REASON, HOMOSEXUALITY IS JUST A CONVENIENT AVENUE TO GET RID OF ANWAR, ANYONE WHO PURSUES THE MATTER IS PRACTICING CONTROLLED MADNESS THAT WILL END IN UNCONTROLLABLE MADNESS AS SURE AS NIGHT FOLLOWS DAY.


Why people are restless:


IF EVERYTHING YOU SAY OR DO IS MEANINGFUL, FRESHLY COMPOSED WITH FULL UNDERSTANDING SPECIFIC TO THE OCCASION, YOU CANNOT BE RESTLESS. IT IS ONLY IF THINGS YOU SAY OR DO ARE MEANINGLESS, WITHOUT TRUE UNDERSTANDING, NOT SPECIFIC TO THE OCCASION BUT IMPERSONALLY REHASHED TO IMPRESS AND PLEASE THAT BECAUSE IT IS MEANINGLESS, REQUIRES NO REASON OR OCCASION TO OCCUR AND WITH MANY REPETITIONS HAS GREAT URGE TO ACTIVATE THAT A PERSON CAN BECOME RESTLESS.


 


It is not the practice (saying or doing) of what is unnecessary or meaningless that causes restlessness but it is the repetitive practice of what is meaningless that causes restlessness.


Why is that so?


Whatever is meaningless, intended for show does not require any reason to occur and can occur at anytime according to the whim of the foolish perpetrator.


Whatever can occur at anytime without requiring reason or purpose can occur all the time if you foolishly keep willing it to happen.


And so it is that the use of force to stretch syllables, change speed and loudness within and between syllables is now automatically constant in all emotional stylish people.


Restlessness is merely the urge for some substance and style speech or action that is always a rehash of mental copy or plan of that speech or action to activate itself without purpose out of context, not even to please or impress others as a result of frequent activation.


WHATEVER THAT IS SAID OR DONE THAT IS UNNECESSARY EXCEPT FOR SHOW TO IMPRESS OR PLEASE OTHERS & REPETITIVE CAN ONLY BE REPETITIVE IF THERE IS A COPY IN THE MIND TO ACT AS TEMPLATE FOR ITS REPEAT. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR SOMETHING TO BE REPEATED WITHOUT MEMORIZATION AND RETRIEVAL FROM MEMORIZATION.


BECAUSE WHATEVER IS UNNECESSARY DOES NOT REQUIRE REASON OR OCCASION OR CONTEXT TO OCCUR, SO LONG AS THE FOOLISH BEING WISHES, HE CAN WILL IT TO OCCUR (EG YOU CAN KEEP UTTERING ‘GOOD MORNING’ TO YOURSELF ALONE IN A ROOM), IT CAN OCCUR AT ANY TIME. WHATEVER CAN OCCUR AT ANYTIME CAN OCCUR ALL THE TIME IF YOU KEEP WILLING IT TO OCCUR AND WHENEVER THAT URGE FOR IT TO ACTIVATE IS EXPERIENCED AND THE PERSON CANNOT STOP HIMSELF ACTIVATING IT, HE IS EXPERIENCING RESTLESSNESS THAT IS NEVER A PLEASURE BUT EVEN AGONIZING TORMENT.


THUS IF YOU SUFFER FROM RESTLESSNESS IT MEANS THAT YOU MUST BE SOMEHOW PRACTICING (SAYING OR DOING) THINGS THAT ARE UNNECESSARY, FOR SHOW FREQUENTLY, REPETITIVELY SO THAT THESE SEQUENCES WHICH MUST EMANATE FROM MEMORIZATIONS IN THE MIND HAS AN URGE TO SPONTANEOUSLY ACTIVATE EVEN BEYOND YOUR ABILITY TO STOP IT. 


Anyone who is restless does not understand:


It is impossible to truly understand whatever that is said or done, how it is said or done that is unnecessary as anything other than unnecessary.


A person who can see and therefore understand that what and how he is saying or doing is unnecessary will not say or do it since he sees and understands it as unnecessary.


It is only a person who wrongly sees and therefore understands as necessary what and how he says and does that is unnecessary who will do so and because it is unnecessary and repetitive it inevitably ends in his being assailed by restlessness.


THUS IF A PERSON SUFFERS FROM RESTLESSNESS HE MUST BE SAYING OR DOING THINGS THAT ARE UNNECESSARY REPETITIVELY AND THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN COME ABOUT IS BECAUSE HE CANNOT SEE AND THEREFORE UNDERSTAND WHAT HE SAYS AND DOES IS UNNECESSARY BUT HE SEES IT WRONGLY AS NECESSARY. THUS BECAUSE ALL EMOTIONAL STYISH PEOPLE SUFFER FROM RESTLESSNESS EVEN SEVERELY, THEY DO NOT TRULY UNDERSTAND, CANNOT TRULY UNDERSTAND.


A PERSON WHO TRULY UNDERSTANDS IS NEVER RESTLESS BECAUSE HE UNDERSTANDS WHAT HE SAYS AND DOES AND THUS UNDERSTANDING HE CAN ONLY SAY WHAT IS NECESSARY AND THEREFORE MEANINGFUL.


They understand falsely and by rote:


Not only do emotional stylish people understand falsely they understand by rote, meaning they memorize their understandings and rehash to reapply those understandings to future happenings which is not only dangerous because future happenings may not correspond to those fixed standardized understandings or explanations, whatever is a rehashed explanation is a fake, counterfeit and NEVER fits reality perfectly. Only a specific to the occasion seeing and therefore understanding of the various strands of a current situation fits the situation perfectly.


In what way is the understanding of people false?


They perceive smiling, laughing, speaking with style or stretched syllables, changing speed and loudness as meaningful and meritorious when it is meaningless, robotic, leads to stress, restlessness and inability to concentrate for self and recipients of the person’s smiles, laughs and style.


In what way is the understanding by rote or rehashed?


Their perception and therefore false understanding that smiling, laughing and style is meaningful and good is never freshly understood for the occasion but rehashed, they have brainwashed themselves, society has brainwashed them such that they automatically rehash the perception and understanding that smiling, laughing and style is meaningful and good.


You are kidding yourself if you perceive your understanding that smiling, laughing and style is meaningful and benevolent is fresh, specific for each occasion it arises in your mind, it is a mindless rehash of the brainwash that smiling is good, meaningful.


THUS PEOPLE PEOPLE’S UNDERSTANDING OF THINGS ARE FALSE ON TWO COUNTS, FIRST THE PERCEPTION IS FALSE, SECONDLY IT IS A COUNTERFEIT, REHASHED TO EXPLAIN A SITUATION ARISING RATHER THAN SEEING THE STRANDS OF THE CURRENT SITUATION AND THUS UNDERSTANDING SPECIFICALLY FOR THE SITUATION. IN OTHER WORDS THEY FORM A FALSE UNDERSTANDING OF A SITUATION THAT CONFRONTS THEM, COMMIT THAT FALSE UNDERSTANDING TO MEMORY AND THEREAFTER WHEN A NEW SITUATION ARISES, THEY SEARCH AND RETRIEVE THEIR FALSE EXPLANATIONS TO APPLY TO THE NEW SITUATION.


Impossible to see a situation falsely always in the same way without rehash:


Things can only happen truly in one way but there are many false ways that things can potentially never or falsely happen.


Thus it is impossible by chance that a person always perceives and therefore understands falsely a situation in way ‘A’ and never in other ways when it is possible to do so and another person always perceives and understand the same situation falsely in way ‘Z’ but never in way ‘A’ or any other myriad ways but the only way this comes about is because the false “A” and “Z” understandings are rehashed, committed to memory to be reapplied standardized to the situation.


THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY SOMETHING HAPPENED.


 THERE ARE MYRIADS OF WAYS SOMETHING HAPPENED DID NOT HAPPEN IN THOSE WAYS AND THEREFORE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE BY CHANCE THAT A PERSON WILL SPONTANEOUSLY ALWAYS PERCEIVE THE SITUATION FALSELY IN THE SAME WAY AND ANOTHER ALWAYS IN ANOTHER WAY BUT THIS CAN ONLY COME ABOUT IF THE PERCEPTION IS REHASHED, MEMORIZED AND RETRIEVED TO BE APPLIED TO THE SITUATION RATHER THAN A FRESH SPECIFIC TO THE OCCASION SEEING AND THEREFORE UNDERSTANDING IT FALSELY. IF THE FALSE PERCEPTION WAS FRESH THEN SURELY HE WILL UNDERSTAND FALSELY IN ONE WAY ON ONE OCCASION AND UNDERSTAND FALSELY IN ANOTHER WAY ON ANOTHER OCCASION.


Only if it is true can it be the same without rehash:


Only if something is true is it possible to see in always the same way without rehashing. If your perception and understanding of a situation is false, it is impossible for you to perceive and understand that situation falsely always in the same way without rehashing by rote that memorized understanding.


BECAUSE THINGS CAN ONLY TRULY HAPPEN IN ONE WAY, IF YOU SEE AND UNDERSTAND THE HAPPENING TRULY YOU WILL ALWAYS SEE AND UNDERSTAND THE HAPPENING IN THAT SAME WAY THAT IS TRUE AND SO THE UNDERSTANDING IS THE SAME BUT IT IS NOT REHASHED, IT IS A FRESH SPECIFIC TO THAT OCCASION UNDERSTANDING. BECAUSE THE THING HAPPENING IS THE SAME, THE TRUE UNDERSTANDING OF THE SITUATI0N IS ALSO THE SAME.


ONLY IF AN UNDERSTANDING OF A SITUATION IS TRUE CAN IT BE THE SAME WITHOUT REHASHING BY ROTE, IF THE UNDERSTANDING OF A SITUATION IS FALSE, THE ONLY WAY THAT FALSE UNDERSTANDING CAN BE THE SAME ALWAYS IS BECAUSE IT IS REHASHED, NOT FRESH SPECIFIC FOR THE OCCASION.


THUS WITHOUT REHASHING THE PERSON WHO UNDERSTANDS TRULY ALWAYS SEE AND UNDERSTANDS STYLE OR STRETCHING SYLLABLES, CHANGING SPEED AND LOUDNESS AS MEANINGLESS, EVIL, HARMFUL TO SELF AND OTHERS.


No matter how many times, always the same:


No matter how many times you truly see and therefore truly understand a same situation (eg someone smiling at you), the seeing and understanding will always be same without being rehashed because the same situation always happens the same way and the same true understanding must always be the same.


If your understanding of a situation is proven to be false then the only way for you to have the same false understanding of the same situation (eg how you perceive smiling and style to be charming whilst another hates people who smile and are charming) is because it is rehashed from memory.


Truth is by nature consistent, falsity must be rehashed to be consistent:


Without rehashing falsity or a false understanding of a situation cannot be consistent. Without requiring rehashing a true understanding of a situation will always be the same.


Faked false understanding:


Programmed or rehashed memorized understandings of things happening are faked understandings, pigeon-holing reality when reality cannot be pigeonholed. Faked understandings are not true understandings and therefore the person with programmed rehashed understanding does not possess true understanding. Further those programmed understandings are always false. If an understanding is true, it need not be programmed, only false understandings require memorizing so that it can be reproduced to be applied in the future.


Why would anyone want to memorize his understandings of a situation unless he wants to reapply it in the future or for the sake of rehashing?


THUS BECAUSE EMOTIONAL STYLISH PEOPLE’S UNDERSTANDINGS CAN BE OBJECTIVELY PROVEN TO BE FALSE AND REHASHED, IS CONSISTENTLY THE SAME, THEY HAVE NO TRUE UNDERSTANDING AND THEREFORE DO NOT UNDERSTAND.


Suffering and controlled insanity to memorize and rehash understanding:


It is a constant struggle and suffering to always have to fabricate an understanding or personal interpretation of what is happening that by nature has to be false, commit it to reliable memory and then make effort to search, retrieve and reapply it to future situations. In time the person’s memory bank become loaded with so many false, artificial explanations and understanding that it becomes increasingly maddening.


By contrast the person who truly understands has no such woes, he sees truly and understands each situation he meets truly without need to rationalize or interpret and commit it to memory, he never retrieves memorized explanations to explain what he is seeing and that is an incomparable freedom from suffering.


IF YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAINSTAKINGLY EVEN OBSESSIVELY CONVERT WHAT YOU SEE INTO EXPLANATIONS THAT ARE ALWAYS FALSE, MUST BE GENERALIZED IN ORDER THAT IT CAN BE APPLIED IN OTHER SITUATIONS, YOU DON’T HAVE TO MEMORIZE THESE EXPLANATIONS AND THEN SEARCH AND REHASH THEM BUT YOU SEE TRULY WHAT IS HAPPENING BEFORE YOU AND UNDERSTAND TRULY WHAT IT ALL MEANS, WHAT IS THERE TO SUFFER, WHAT BURDEN IS THERE?


The greedy harassed man’s view of the world:


Emotional, stylish people have little time for this world that they so greedily desire to exist in.


Beset by stress, restlessness and distraction that their and everybody else’s styles create in them, they only manage to take snapshots of whatever is happening around them and sometimes these snapshots are hasty and misleading and based on these snapshots they consult their libraries of explanations or understandings of what is happening might mean. Thus, they don’t realize, they are trapped in a prison, forever explaining whatever is happening according to the rehashed same old understandings that may seriously misrepresent what is happening.


Only occasionally when something happen out of the ordinary that their standardized rehashed explanations cannot explain well do they pause to take more snapshots and rack their minds for possible missed explanations that they have and if they do, they formulate another false explanation for it and try to memorize it for future use to explain events.


THE GREEDY HARRASSED MAN, HARRASSED BY STRESS, RESTLESSNESS AND DISTRACTION AND GREEDILY PURSUING GAINS HAS LITTLE TIME FOR THE WORLD AND SO HE ONLY MANAGES SNAPSHOTS THAT HE THEN REFERS TO HIS MENTAL LIBRARY OF EXPLANATIONS THAT MUST BY NATURE BE FALSE, APPROXIMATE AND FAULTY. ONLY OCCASIONALLY IS HE STUMPED TO HAVE TO PAUSE TO FASHION A NEW EXPLANATION TO BE MEMORIZED FOR FUTURE USE.


How can you truly understand if you take snapshots?


A person who sees by snapshots or intermittently cannot truly understand what he is seeing. Only a person who pays full attention to what he is witnessing without thinking or talking or doing anything simultaneously fully sees and therefore understands the situation.


A person who sees a scene intermittently must resort to presumption to plug in the gaps of what he missed and he must resort to pre-recorded explanations to ‘understand’ what he perceived intermittently.


THUS UNLESS YOU BELIEVE YOU SEE OR WITNESS EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS WITHOUT BREAKS, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND TRULY WHAT YOU SAW AND BY NATURE YOU HAVE TO RESORT TO REHASHED EXPLANATIONS TO EXPLAIN WHAT YOU SAW IN SNAPSHOTS AND YOU MUST MAKE PRESUMPTIONS.


BECAUSE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD ALWAYS SEES IN SNAPSHOTS, THAT IS THEIR DEFAULT AND ONLY WAY THEY ARE ABLE TO SEE, THEY CANNOT TRULY UNDERSTAND THINGS BUT THEIR UNDERSTANDINGS ARE ALWAYS REHASHES OF WHAT THEY MEMORIZED.


What it takes to understand truly:


What does it take to understand truly what another is saying?


In order to understand truly what another is saying, you must pay full attention to what he is saying. That means:


a)   You must not speak whilst he is speaking.


b)   You must not be thinking of anything else whilst he is speaking.


c)   You must not be doing anything else eg munching a nut or stirring coffee whilst he is speaking.


BECAUSE PEOPLE NEVER PAY FULL UNDIVIDED ATTENTION TO ANOTHER WHEN HE SPEAKS, THEY MERELY LISTENS IN SNAPSHOTS AND THEY BUTT IN, THINK OF SOMETHING ELSE OR DO SOME WORK WHEN LISTENING, THEY NEVER LISTEN FULLY AND THUS LISTENING IN SNAPSHOTS THEY CANNOT TRULY UNDERSTAND EXCEPT IN THE DELUSION THEY CAN AND DO.


You must also be unemotional:


In order to truly understand what is happening you must also be unemotional when paying attention to what is said or happening.


If your emotions are stirred, you are stirring what is blind and blinding that becomes an impediment to understanding.


BECAUSE THEIR EMOTIONS ARE STIRRED TO LIKE, DISLIKE, BE SAD, HURT OR AGITATED BY WHAT IS SAID, PEOPLE CANNOT TRULY UNDERSTAND BECAUSE THE STIRRED EMOTION INEBRIATES THE MIND.
