Why do revolutions invariably backfire

Answer:

Revolution: late Middle English: from Old French, or from late Latin revolutio(n-), from revolvere 'roll back' (see revolve).

Backfire: (Of a plan or action) have an opposite and undesirable effect to what was intended

So a revolution is a "roll back" or circling around to where you started, and it backfires because you assume you will be moving forward and progressing when in fact you are just circling back to the beginning of the cycle.

IMO:

BEWARE THOSE WHO CALL FOR REVOLUTION (it's a trap!)

we do NOT need to go back and start this cycle over (as has been done through out history) we need an EVOLUTION, not REVOLUTION.

Thank you dan. This is not an experiment, more like a parable. Rugby, they say, is a sport for ruffians played by gentlemen (soccer being the opposite), and it is fascinating to see how the two interact. For example, they have mauls, which is when everyone jumps on each other in a pile to get at the ball at the bottom. Usually this is skillfully done so that no one gets hurt, but occasionally someone will take advantage of the relative chaos to do something ungentlemanly, like poking an eye or stamping on a hand (or it may be accidental). When the victim retaliates, the whole thing immediately degenerates into a pitched battle, likely because this was just the tip of a whole iceberg. The referee then waits for them to calm down, consults his linesman over what actually happened and tells the two fighters to kindly cut it out. Which they usually do, and everyone promptly gets on with the game as if nothing had happened. My point is that this seems to be what is going on in the world today: there have been a lot of people misbehaving of late because they think no one can see them; but when play is stopped and order restored, as if by magic those same people will start behaving properly again.

TargeT, you can have a forward ‘rollback’: just roll a ball, it comes back to its initial position, but one circumference further on.

so an incremental increase in "progression" but you still have to start the same cycle again?

My studies have shown to me the power of words, I think "revolution" being popularized and changed to the modernly understood definition of overthrowing a tyrannical government is V E R Y interesting; and quite possibly on purpose.

Basically the use of that word (a audible symbol), is it preparing us for "more of the same" in a morphic field sense? is that what popular zietgiest ideas like this do?

I can't help but wonder why that word is the popular choice, it's definition makes it suspect in my mind (and the power of symbols is something I don't fully grasp, but I know its there)

It’s just an analogy, and if it doesn’t work, you can either pare away the unwanted connotations or drop the word altogether. The idea is of bringing about positive change in new ways, which is, as I said, by definition different from anything that has been tried to date. No more failed handmedown ideas: we’ve got to work this out anew.

Yes, what we don't want, is the vaunted Third 'Albert Pike Pump' job taking place.

Just found out one of the technologies that I just recently started working with...... is associated with another area of technology which I'd very much prefer to avoid. Something I want nothing to do with. All I caught was one word, in association. This is after looking at the stuff, all over the net... for months. I've no desire to research or even look any further at that particular association, and will not. Sadly, (but very correctly) that's about all I can say - this is more of a public announcement of such, so the message gets through.

Sorry, while it is on my mind! I know some of you are not sports nuts. I tried to juggle sports and academia in high school and college!

Thus, my Kentucky Wildcat basketball team, is Ranked #1 in the USA! Undefeated! No, that is not going to last. Everybody is after them. Tonight KY 71 LSU 69. As my Dad used to say, if they don't win by 30, then I am going to have a heart attack!

Sorry, I have grown up with this, since I was 10, listening on the radio, finally TV, then actually seeing games, live! It doesn't get better than this in college basketball! I have witnessed 4 national championships since, I have been alive! (Hoping for a 4th) That would make 9.

I know it not the most important thing in life! But, it is a little distraction! It's almost like CBS News comes up with something positive at the end of their broadcast. It gives us hope!

[Ol' Roy]

Thanks Calz, I don't know why, but I knew you be the first to acknowledge this. I know! Because it means so much to me. Guess what? Friends like you are far and few between! Take care my friend! I have listened to many hours of your music and filling in for Gio on Up at the Ranch!

Hang in there ol' brother!
Roy

[Calz]

Thanx for the kind words Roy

I was a big sports fan when I was young. Life was so much ... simpler ... then.

Our state university (Nebraska) has never been great in basketball but was the top ranked football team 5 years during that time period.

Married in 96 with a kid right away then 9/11 shoved the "real world" in my face and I have kept falling deeper down the rabbit hole ever since.

Some times I wish I would have taken the blue pill ...

A lot to do about the Swiss banking scandal which came out surprisingly only a few days after the Belgian government revised the fiscal amnesty deal that was officially terminated in 2013 during PM Di Rupo's term (Elio Di Rupo was our last PM, now we have Charles Michel).

For those who do not know the content of the amnesty, basically: if you had money parked outside of Belgium with the intent to avoid paying taxes on it, you could regularise it by bringing it back and making a deal with the tax collector (a fixed percentage in fine instead of prosecution). And that deal was very successful. Very much so that even on the last day, requests were still flooding the tax office. And then it was too late...until now, because the government has changed its mind.

Like when it was agreed with Electrabel (leading energy corporation), that we should step away from nuclear energy, closing the smaller nuclear plants (Doel 1 en 2) first, and if they could please start preparing for that by, what was it, 2015? Well, truth be said, Electrabel did its job, for a change, and had already decreased activity in its facilties when at the start of this new government, you'll never guess...

Yep, they changed their minds: let's have that nuclear energy going for just a little bit longer. Electrabel pointing out that there's a price tag because, well, they already invested in closing down the thing and now the government wants to have a speedy reactivation ...Can you say budgetting?

Yea...But deviating now. So, the last chance to get your money washed clean again appears now to not have really been a very last chance. Few days later, bam, who's got a secret Swiss bank account. Apparently, but I just heard that, housewives on wellfare have little treasures hidden too. Okay, it's none of our business, but interesting nonetheless. This saga has just started, so we'll see where it goes.

Carnival week too, and busy pimping the children's costumes. You know



It's about time I got out that sewing machine again, there's some other projects that have been waiting, and they must be done by spring, summer at last.

And while I was browsing those other treasures, in the library, I chanced upon a small Jodorowsky corner and sought myself out the most appropriate cover to be dragging around under the curious eye of our little ones. No experience, but I feel this is going to be, yes, interesting.

What follows is a great track for a bike ride, but before that, my latest bike thought. Mornings are not like the afternoons (no way ). There's a feeling of swiftness that is more prominent in the morning than in the early evenings. I tried to build an image of it and surprisingly it came out a bit like what Eagle Spirit provided on the previous page with me (and others) collectively piercing a vacuum at a certain speed and the ease of motion when all is moving at high speed. But in the evening, perhaps because there are less tight deadlines to meet in terms of being on time at work, school, speed seems lower and the vacuum feels....denser? No that's not possible, a vacuum is empty, right?...Erm, movement through space feels denser. I have to make more of my own effort, because the others have slowed down (too?) and I can't rely on their energies as a gift in speed.

Post update:

Kanishk, those paintings brought back a question that I by the by asked..myself, I think, because I don't remember the answer. It was about feminine nudity as opposed to male and whether dominance of the former is due to the eye of the beholder (espec. the artist). Or, does it take a woman or another lover of male nudity to amplify and/or beautify presence of the male body in art? This was made by a woman herself, wonder how it compares to male representations and how she lays her accents.

That was the exact same word I was going to use to say something to Sirdip, Target, evolution, but that's for later.

I'm expected somewhere now. Off I be.

I am here, now. 3:57 AM, the only time I can catch up with Avalon and the Village.
Every post I read is related to what's happening during my physical reality.
Sorry, too complicated to explain it all in detail.

Started the house move...
Knitting the new home stitch by stitch, row by row...leaving the unwanted for the "throw away, give away, storage" categories.
Redesigning future plans, even though they have taken me weeks to draw, but never mind.
So refreshing to find myself kicking out lots of earlier ideas which suddenly seem too conventional...

Replacing them with streamlined new ones...
As you know I built two guest cottages and then connected them with a 3m x 4m glass room.
The result is beyond my wildest dream. Maybe the beautiful clear sunny weather is helping, the brilliant colors of flowers in bloom, and everything so pristine right now.
What I designed, and what my team of Nicaraguan brothers built, is a unique tiny mansion. And none of us had formal training...just using our wits here....
Forget the concept of "tiny house", think "tiny mansion".
Our retirement income will come from visitors to our future tiny 4 acre botanical garden which will be created on the low land between the new tiny mansion and the river. The Eco Village concept is still on, however, although slightly delayed. My rich friends would say, "why don't you get a loan from the bank?"
Too late, folks, I dropped out of the system over 30 years ago. The only part of the old me that is still alive and kicking is my sense of esthetics.

Who needs technologies when you can have consciousness?
Sometimes when coming to a fork in the road it's a good idea to sit down and have a picnic. And then decide on a U-turn...

Me too, ulli. Purge....pack. Repeat. Feels great to be rid of old crap. Trying to remain in a space of Trust because this can be a scary move for me. Trying to not give in to momentary panics, trying to allow the periods of excitement to grow longer and stronger. Haven't had much time to sit down and rest in the village, but I'm here (and now) in spirit.

Much Love, All.

Hi Ulli, Love to You!

So glad You shared this

I have been doing a focused refresh of much of this personal cleansing and uplift and activation work...and it is real work, of the highest and purest kind, imho : )

I had gotten a download a while back and now put this personal 'enhancement' spirit work on a 'trilogy' coordination rhythm expression on 3 sites...
PA being one of them, of course.

For me, the Template I work is much like the 4th and 5th steps of the 12 step program...when done with a cleansing and forward spirit it is an amazing thing to experience and this experience is becoming much more enhanced, I feel, because of the new wonderful Energies 'moving and connecting' on Mother Earth now, more focused than ever because more and more are doing this diligent work with a conscious loving effort, and well, a bit of effortlessness in there now, a smoothing, if you will, of the looking in the mirror and moving forward and forgiving and loving yourself and others in your life and connecting to your personal 'source' work!

And as Dawn just shared..."It Is A Celebration!" : )

How about we give this "U-turn" a new energy together, one by one by one?!
