ABOUT ME
I am intrigued by order arising out of chaos, the vital and seemingly inalienable nature of duality, and the occult history of humanity.
"I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical ... It is a medicine necessary for the sound health of government."
"When Governments fear the People, there is Liberty. When People fear their Government, there is Tyranny."
-Thomas Jefferson
"It is the duty of the Patriot to protect his country from its government."
-Thomas Paine
"Dissent is the Highest form of Patriotism."
-Howard Zinn
PHILOSOPHY
The only true knowledge is knowing that you know nothing. Embrace the duality.
We are not human beings on a spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.
Let go. Let go. Let go. Let go! -MJK

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Every moment I spent in Nepal was beyond amazing.
Teach, Learn, Share
Every mechanism of control and oppression worldwide stands on a basic foundation of extractive, malevolent fractional-reserve central banking - which can be thwarted completely by awareness alone.
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and the corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
-Thomas Jefferson
