POWERS, ENTITIES, AND assimilation…
Commercial and Military entities believe that that they are the only real power, the only true conflict. They are nothing without entities of Spirit, which are regularly co-opted to an illegitimate cause.
What are we talking about here?
By Spirit, the reference is passions, symbolic meaning, ethos, and the power of ideologies, religion, and all large-scale belief systems. Be aware of how Spirit is co-opted by commercial and military forces.
What is illegitimate? That is a judgement which must be worked upon. Our guide is the corpus of ethics, which law tries to achieve but often fails.
Be guided by Spirit but understand that Spirit can be assimilated to false ends.
