Before You Build It Up, Tear It Down: A Call to Conscious Community

Before You Build It Up, Tear It Down: A Call to Conscious Community I was sitting still—thinking. Letting the mind wander across proverbs , ancient texts, and what's happening now. One idea kept circling back like a hawk over fresh prey: “Before something great can be built, it must first be broken down.” You’ll find echoes of this in the Tao Te Ching , in Proverbs , and in the ancestral wisdom of Africa . “If you want to kill a fool, give them a bag full of money.” That one hit me sideways the first time I heard it. It didn’t say “fight the fool” or “educate the fool”—nope. Just bless them with abundance they ain’t ready for, and the destruction will take care of itself. And I can’t help but see that playing out in real time—in our politics, in our people, in the nation. Collapse as a Setup, Not a Setback Look, I don't usually date my writings, but let’s keep it real—it’s early November, post-election season, and a whole lot is shifting. Layoffs coming, benefit...

Mastering Consciousness: Overcoming Unbalanced Passions

Mastering Consciousness: Overcoming Unbalanced Passions



Welcome to today's discussion. We're diving into question number six in our ongoing series, and since we're on a roll, we might as well tackle question seven too. These questions build on our previous exploration—"What must the warrior do to become great?" The answer was clear: They must be willing to die. But die to what?

The answer lies in dying to unbalanced passions—those forces that cloud our judgment, trap us in cycles of negativity, and keep us from achieving true greatness.

What Are the Unbalanced Passions?

The unbalanced passions are:

  • Fear
  • Envy
  • Pride
  • Greed
  • Sloth
  • Lust
  • Anger

These are not just abstract concepts; they are real forces that, when unchecked, can dominate our lives. They fuel chaos and keep us from seeing reality for what it is. Passions should be tools, not masters. When we let them take control, they distort our consciousness and limit our power.

The Enemy of Consciousness

Why must we die to these passions? Because they are opposed to Consciousness.

Not just woke consciousness—not just surface-level awareness—but true, deep, powerful consciousness.

When we are conscious, we are awake, aware, and able to act with clarity and purpose. But these passions work against us:

  • Fear keeps us stuck.
  • Envy makes us bitter.
  • Pride blinds us to wisdom.
  • Greed leads to emptiness.
  • Sloth robs us of discipline.
  • Lust distracts us.
  • Anger clouds our judgment.

And here’s the thing—our enemies know this. They feed our fears, pump up our envy, and stroke our pride. They nurture our greed and sloth while fueling our anger. Why? Because if we are ruled by these passions, we cannot act with power in the present moment.

The Power of the Present Moment

All of our strength, wisdom, and ability to shape reality exist in the present moment.

If we are stuck fretting over the past, we have no power.
If we are paralyzed by fear of the future, we have no power.
But when we are fully in the now, we are unstoppable.

That is why consciousness is the first step to greatness. To be great, to be wise, to be a warrior for your destiny, you must be present, awake, and conscious.

Let’s continue this journey together. Stay conscious. Stay powerful. Stay ready.

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...
