MF The Giant
Hi Dynamites,

nature? How

to the

feel the

Since I am a newbie, I may sound stupid and ridiculous at times.
Kindly indulge me.
"Insofar as they are testable, we now proceed to test rather than to
worship - Models of the Universe " - Dr Lilly
Cities - huge structures of steel and concrete - expanding and
growing all over the world. Progress and development. Progress of
rationality and its great grandson - technology. Rationality is
a linear system of thought based upon cause and effect.
The Giant - An Entity that represents these structures and process.
This Entity is obviously imaginary. Imagination - the fuel of poetry or
rhetoric.
This gives us a slim chance to try to tie this Giant before it becomes real.
The Giant grows larger and larger everyday .
For it is the Godhead of Static Quality in every way.
Static Quality that is out of control and perhaps uncontrollable.
Like a machine whose feedback link has become disabled.
Like a key whose handle has broken off .
The end of the key is stuck inside the lock of a door, cutting one off.
The door to freedom .
The Giant grows stronger and stronger everyday .
Like a giant Eagle it grows stronger in every way.
By devouring its exact opposite - Dynamic Quality.
Dynamic Quality of those for whom cause is not reality.
The eyes of this Eagle are quick to catch its prey .
Dynamic Quality that has gone astray.
If you go Right, you will be all right.
If you go Wrong , it will become strong.
One fatal mistake and you are its slave.
If you apologise, maybe it will oblige.
The Giant becomes more and more powerful with every human defect.
It turns the power of human beings into its domain of cause-effect.
POWER! So easy to lose control of.
One slip and out it goes. Maybe out of reach.
Power out of control cannot create anything, it will only destroy.
Anything and Everything that comes in its way, even its own creator.
This Giant is the Lord of Destruction. High and Mighty .
Some people even worship it. Perhaps so that it may not devour them .
But this Giant has no will or awareness of its own - it is NOT self aware.
It is only an unseen cause-effect machine !
The only Gift that this machine can give someone is that it does not trap
that someone in its way, especially someone who has taken a WRONG turn
someway.
The Gift of the Eagle.
This Giant cannot communicate with anyone. However if someone were to ask
this Giant about what is Right or Wrong this Giant can only reply :
'Everything is cause and effect, therefore inevitable and
therefore Right and therefore I am always justified . Stupid question.'
This Giant is too good at logic. You cannot prove cause. It can prove
anything.
No arguing with this Giant. Its always Right, its got cause-effect on its
side.
Like a vulture It waits paitently till the day it has devoured all cause.
That day this Giant will become very Real. It will graduate into a Monster.
In the cycle of every creation comes a time when the beings of that creation
reach a critical point of choice - the Right path of action and Destiny is
theirs for the making. To do nothing or take the Wrong turn and the Lord of
Destruction takes over. And crushes everything under its dance of Death .
Thanks for your patience.
