2010 I was told that I perhaps suffered from dysthymia from my psychologist. Comphressive description: Anti-fluoridationists, anti-racist, anti-world government activist, anti-zionist, automath, dissident, drug educated, entheogenic activist, environmental activist, ethical semi-lacto-vegetarian with sympathy for freeganism, euroscepticist, free software developer, gaian, hippie, neohumanist, nutritionist, organ donator, philomath, project manager, psychonaut, slacker, workaholic.“David Englund” is just my mundane name; you can call me “dbe”. I am a science fiction fan who write time series forecastings. I have devoted the bulk of my energies to political and spiritual freedom activism. I balance between learning theory and working practical. I serve as a full time and unpaid volunteer for different communities. Professing to care little for material wealth. I admire the work of Alexander Shulgin (psychopharmacologist and chemist), Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar (social revolutionary) and Ram Dass. I recommend avoiding certain terms which I consider misleading, and advocate using other terms instead. I document my standpoints that my political notes and long-term action items are based upon. I sympathize with some radical left philosophies and shamanism but do not follow any of them. The reason why I write about my political activism is because we don't have censorship in sweden. My mother tongue is Swedish, and I have a working knowledge of English. I'm no ufamilliar to hear that I live in a utopia. I don't belive that people with ecclesiastical titles are holy, “the chooser becomes the chosen”, you were born to be king over your own life.
Antiscience From a western point of viewPersonality types: Accurate, agnostics, anxious, dynamic, introspect, introvert, liberal, self-critical.Subpersonality types: [investigated, the average person has about a dozen subpersonalities] Human behavior: Eccentricity. Religious behaviour and experience: Scrupulosity. Personality traits: Addictive personality; Sex, work (computers, internet), spiritual obsession, shopping, alcohol abuse (I don't drink). Conscientiousness, highly sensitive person (HSP), latent inhibition, grit, narcissistic, neurotic, openness to experience, perfectionist, surgency, type A personality, virtue (piety, idealistic), whiz kid. Personality disorders (not clinical evaluated): DSPS, dysthymia, HPPD, OCPD, personality disorder (general diagnostic criteria), PTSD. Personality disorders (clinical evaluated) that I do not have: ADHD or ADD, AS, anti-social personality disorders (psychopathy, anti-social personality disorder), narcissism disorders (narcissistic personality disorder). Ego psychology: Ego syntonic (OCPD). Odd behaviours: I am very fashinated by eyes, especially eye contact. I rescue worms from drowning when it rains. Frequent world peace daydreaming is normal in my life.
Neuroanatomy
OCPD
Possible genes of alcoholism I have a intimate relation with Lil' Linn and strive to replace jealousy with compersion. That will increase my self-esteem and give us the possibility to explore naturism. I have unusual interest in inner peace and world peace. Other intrests include consciousness (particular exoconsciousness), entheogens, drug re-legalization, mysticism (particular ego death), transpersonal psychology, parapsychology (particular near death experience (NDE)), positive psychology, and psychopharmacology subjects. I practice diaphragmatic breathing, day dreaming and lucid dreaming. I think altruism is more important than philosophy. I prefer to do things my way (DIY) and I listen to indie chill out, particular psybient (Entheogenic is wonderful) but also vocaltrance, classical music, space music, and soundscapes. However, most electronic music is really bad and created with non-free software. I recommend the free audio programming language SuperCollider for customized synths (listen to this sample) distributed under a free music with source files. I prefer high resolved visionary art from painters like A. Andrew Gonzalez, Alex Grey, and Luke Brown.“I want to get as close as I can to understanding not just the human mind, but the mind of [our collective consciousness] and I want to be able to live with what I find. I believe that every human being wants exactly the same thing, only most of us don't manage to articulate the wish to ourselves. We don't realize that that's what we're all trying to do. Psychedelics are my way, but they are certainly only one of a multitude of ways, all deserving of respect.”[Ann Shulgin] I believe in good and evil (morality, not god and devil), supports religious toleration and remain opposed to most forms of guru-based forms of spiritual awakening. For me its mor imporant to understand and follow my own values rather then those created in specific systems (traditions, religions, political system and ideologies, cosmological models etc). I belive in miracles, the typical Kundalini archetype, but not in fundamentalism. There are many paths to the top of the mountain, but they all reach the same place. You must find your own path. I go so far that I would leave family members and friends that are against my way. I express myself in the society to the point where it is hard to find a job. I think I could take punishment as dissident to make a justice statement. Despite philosophical differences, all major world religions have the same potential to create good human beings. We are all brothers and sisters, friends and families. I also belive that it is far more imporant to let the people rule the world rather then specialized governments. I think ego death is one of the most important experiences we encounter during our lives in order to be altruistic. I have a simple axiom that I totally believe in; Always face your greatest ego, in any consciousness, including in altered states of consciousness (ASC) and it will be transformed with something beautiful. For example, if you feel pain, go into details where your pain, where it is located, and go into it. If it was a pain in the stomach, think about opening your mouth, and going down into your mouth and describe what you see. It's dark, it's this, that, and keep on going. Describe what you see as you go down. Go all the way down, into your insides. Frequently you will burst into a beautiful world of paradise. The pain would immediately be transformed into ecstasy. I balance between freethinking and agnosticism: Freethinking; I try to prove things for myself with experience that I think can be proven by science and logic in the future instead of belive that things are in a certain way. I'm convinced that we are not alone in universe for example. To quote Isabel Clarke: “I maintain that a radical shift in world-view, from naive technocratic scientism and towards a postmodern, more spiritually informed “new paradigm” perspective opens up creative, liberating and potentially healing avenues for thinking about and understanding the widest spectrum of human subjective experience.” Psychosis and Spirituality: Exploring the New Frontier Agnosticism;
P.M.H. Atwater studied over 270 child NDErs. She found that: “Our entire universe is contained in the mind and the spirit. We may choose not to find access to it, we may even deny its existence, but it is indeed there inside us, and there are chemicals that can catalyze its availability.“[Alexander Shulgin] “During our lives, we may fill this void with many things such as: love, hatred, happiness, sadness, knowledge, ignorance, family, just to name a few. And when we die, we actually step into this spiritual dimension we have filled. Whatever we fill the void within us with, at death, we enter into it. Perhaps this is one good reason why the most important aspect of our missions in life have to do with love. Realizing, filling and cultivating divine love within our void and sharing this love with others during our life will create a heavenly paradise that will be manifested in death. Together with the earthbound realm, the void is known by many religious traditions as hell, purgatory, or outer darkness to name a few. Some people may remain in the void for one reason or another until they are ready to leave it. Choosing [positive] energy over [negative] is the key to being freed from the void. For some this might feel like a unberable eternity and their only hope is perhaps only reincarnation.“Kevin Williams I would not be supprised if international mass surveilance in the form of human RFID chips lead to planetary state terrorism run by a world government where the dissidents is associated with terror. If that happens, som people will realize that the puppet states act as terroist when they are under full control. Don't be afraid to refuse to wear this tracking device, be courageous and just say no. But I belive in and struggle for my highest wish, world peace. We have to begin the process of world peace by coming to peace within ourselves. But we also have to keep up and fight together. Perhaps even polyamory or relation anarchy (RA) would be ideal in a world peace society.
“The question of real, lasting world peace concerns human beings, so basic human feelings are also at its roots. Through inner peace, genuine world peace can be achieved. In this the importance of individual responsibility is quite clear; an atmosphere of peace must first be created within ourselves, then gradually expanded to include our families, our communities, and ultimately the whole planet.” Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama
It is our duty to take full responsibility for our own actions. Like supporting different movements and theories of rights that I belive have a huge impact at local, regional, national, international and global levels on gaia. I put emphasis on separation of church and state and warns that a world government might become a imperial cult ruled by a cult of personality. I remains committed to talk about the importance of these human values and share them with everyone I meets. I am convinced that inner peace is the key to world peace and that inner conflicts is the weapon to world conflicts. Personality traits that I want to achive: Ambiversion. Achive high humility. Disolve alter ego completely! My goal is to be to become a polymath by accessing more consciousness through spiritual practice. I want to get involved in more social movements and travel around the world to learn and by different cultures. I want live in a free society.
I have a dreams to found a revolutionary movement, a ecovillage, an international non-profit organization and achive spiritual enlightenment. My pipedream is that world peace comes true where we all can live together in happiness despite specie, culture, belief system or religion.
Eschatology It is possible to achieve several lifetimes of growth during one life by safely[Genevieve Lewis Paulson - Kundalini And The Chakras, Kundalini and the Chakras, p177] spiritual energy. My dominated model is that I think we are everything in all space and time forever, not just living organisms but minerals, energies etc. You are me and I am you.
Revitalizing the cells Singularity
Spacetime singularity I think we can take our consciousness down to singularity level and optimize our own DNA, remove viruses, and unlock new functions to our brain like any supernovas create a galaxies. The scientist expects hundreds of billions of galaxies to exist, far more then the number of people on Earth. I belive that we can gain this power by challenge personal psychological crisis and inner peace. A shaman may be initiated via a serious illness, by being struck by lightning, or by a near-death experience.I belive this is scientificly linked to psychic abilities like faith healing and telepathy. We wouldn't need tracking devices like mobile phones if we could communicate emotions instead of verbs with telepathy worldwide. In fact, I many times ponder if we are brain damaged because we don't seem to respect that we might have these capabilities if we alter spiritual evolution. Perhaps we had those abilities in our ancient genes but forgot how to use them. I don't belive in human cloning because that would prevent us from optimize our own psyche first. Narby thinks ayahuasca could be a valuable tool for the modern biologist, who could use the substance to interrogate the “mind of nature” directly. Recently, Narby brought three European molecular biologist down to visit an Amazonian shaman. During their trances, they attempted to ask direct questions of the ayahuasca spirit relating to their areas of research. All received answers to their queries. For example, one genetic researcher found herself transformed into a protein flying above a long DNA strand, and was able in way to understand the meaining of certain pattern in what had previously been considered “junk DNA”:
She saw DNA sequences known as “CpG islands,” which she [Daniel Pinchbeck, Breaking Open the Head, p157]
had been nuzzling over at work and which are found upstream of about sixty percent of all human genes. She saw they were structurally different from the surrounding DNA and that this structural difference allowed them to be easily accessed and therefore to serve as “landing pads” for transcription proteins, which dock on to the DNA molecule and make copies of precise genetic structures
Technological singularity Kurzweil has stressed the extreme potential dangers of nanotechnology but argues that in practice, progress cannot be stopped, and any attempt to do so will retard the progress of defensive and beneficial technologies more than the malevolent ones, increasing the danger. To quote “Post-2045: “Waking up” the Universe”, one of the predictions made by Raymond Kurzweil:
“With the entire universe made into a giant, highly efficient supercomputer, AI and human hybrids (so integrated that, in truth it is a new category of "life") would have both supreme intelligence and physical control over the universe. Kurzweil suggests that this would open up all sorts of new possibilities, including abrogation of the laws of Physics, interdimensional travel, and a possible infinite extension of existence (true immortality).”
I think its our own mission to find inner peace and I do not belive that we cannot prevent the eventual ultimate fate of the universe.
Breathing [F]or some years researchers jokingly reffered to schizophrenia as lung disease because of the high concentrations of DMT-forming enzymes within the lung![DMT: The Spirit Molecule, p84]
The pineal gland
Speculations “Meditative techniques using sound, sight, or the mind may generate particular wave patterns whose fields induce resonance in the brain. Millennia of human trial and error have determined that certain ‘sacred’ worlds, visual images, and mental exercises exert uniquely desired effects. Such effects may occur because of the specific fields they generate within the brain. These fields cause multiple systems to vibrate and pulse at certain frequencies. We can feel our minds and bodies resonate with these spiritual exercises. Of course, the pineal gland also is buzzing at these same frequencies . . .The pineal begins to ‘vibrate’ at frequencies that weaken its multiple barriers to DMT formation.” (Strassman). Is it possible that that some of our human ancestors produced more DMT than we do today? Brain researchers [...] dismiss the proposal that DMT can allow our brains to perceive dark matter or parallel universes, realms of existence inhabited by conscious entites.[Rick Strassman, DMT: The Spirit Molecule, Introduction] The human pineal gland is not actually part of the brain. Rather, it develops from specialized tissues in the roof of the fetal mouth. From there it migrates to the center of the brain, where it seems to have the best seat in the house. Since the pineal gland does not originate from brain tissue, it exists outside the blood-brain barrier and ought to be responsive to blood-borne chemicals and drugs.[Rick Strassman, DMT: The Spirit Molecule, p64]
The pineal gland contains the necessary building blocks to make DMT. For example, it possesses the highest levels of serotonin anywhere in the body, and serotonin is a crucial precursor for pineal melatonin. The pineal also has the ability to convert serotonin to tryptamine, a critical step in DMT formation I already knew that the Tibetan Buddhist Book of the Dead teaches that it takes forty-nine days for the soul of the recently dead to “reincarnate.” That is, seven weeks from the time of death of one person elapses until the life-force's “rebirth” into its next body. I remember very clearly, several years later, feeling the chill along my spine when, reading my textbook of human fetal development, I discovered this same forty-nine-day interval marking two landmark events in the human embryo formation. It takes forty-nine days from conception for the first signs of the human pineal to appear. Forty-nine days is also when the fetus differetiates into make or female gender.[Rick Strassman, DMT: The Spirit Molecule, p81-82] The Pineal gland does not gradual enlarge during the ages of 2 to 20 years.[ref] Until roughly age 8, we can-t really distinguish between fantasy and reality, due to our own natural hallucinogen, DMT, (dimethyltryptamine). DMT molecules are similar to serotonin and target the same receptors. The combination of the Pineal secreted DMT (Dimethyltriptamine) and the MAO Inhibitor pinoline (6-MeO-THbC) may be responsible for naturally occurring psychic experiences.[ref] Pinoline is a methoxylated tryptoline that occurs in the pineal gland that acts as an endogenous MAOI.
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) suppress pineal gland activity
The fluorine deficiency myth Fluoride and fluorine is not essential nutrients.[ref] Fluorides ability to inhibit, and even reverse, the initiation and progression of dental caries is well known. A recent studie shown that liquorice extract also prevent dental caries.[ref]. A disolved fluoride tablet between the front tooth and the lips it will cause dental fluorosis. However, fluoride is considered essential in the development and maintenance of teeth by the American Dental Hygienists' Association.[ref] Also Fluoride is no longer used for osteoporosis, and most sources don't think that ingesting fluoride prevents tooth decay (see Aoba 2002 and Pizzo 2007). There is more fluoride in the pineal gland than any other organ in the body and flouride calcifies the pineal gland. The pineal gland is a midline structure, and is often seen in plain skull X-rays, as it is often calcified. Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) is a new MRI technique that can identify calcification by using phase images.[ref] Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) does not expose the patient to the hazards of ionizing radiation as with computed tomography (CT) scanners that uses X-rays. Calcification of the pineal gland is typical in adults.[ref] Lets go back to the history of fluoride. The G-Series is the first and oldest family of nerve agents[ref] that was accidentally discovered in Germany on December 23, 1936 by a research team headed by Dr. Gerhard Schrader working for IG Farben. Since 1934, Schrader had been working in a laboratory in Leverkusen to develop new types of insecticides for IG Farben. While working toward his goal of improved insecticide, Schrader experimented with numerous fluorine-containing compounds, eventually leading to the preparation of tabun. In experiments, tabun was extremely potent against insects: as little as 5 ppm of tabun killed all the leaf lice he used in his initial experiment.[ref] Treatment for suspected tabun poisoning is often three injections of a nerve agent antidote, such as atropine (found in Atropa belladonna).[ref] The first occurrence of fluoridated drinking water on Earth was found in Germany's Nazi prison camps. The Gestapo had little concern about fluoride's supposed effect on children's teeth; their alleged reason for mass-medicating water with sodium fluoride was to sterilize humans and force the people in their concentration camps into calm submission.[The Crime and Punishment of I.G. Farben, by Joseph Borkin] References that should be further investigatedThe following letter was received by the Lee Foundation for Nutritional Research, Milwaukee Wisconsin, on 2 October 1954, from Mr. Charles Perkins, a chemist: “I have your letter of September 29 asking for further documentation regarding a statement made in my book, The Truth About Water Fluoridation, to the effect that the idea of water fluoridation was brought to England from Russia by the Russian Communist Kreminoff. “In the 1930's, Hitler and the German Nazi's envisioned a world to be dominated and controlled by a Nazi philosophy of pan-Germanism. The German chemists worked out a very ingenious and far-reaching plan of mass-control which was submitted to and adopted by the German General Staff. This plan was to control the population in any given area through mass medication of drinking water supplies. By this method they could control the population in whole areas, reduce population by water medication that would produce sterility in women, and so on. In this scheme of mass-control, sodium fluoride occupied a prominent place. ...” “Repeated doses of infinitesimal amounts of fluoride will in time reduce an individual's power to resist domination, by slowly poisoning and narcotizing a certain area of the brain, thus making him submissive to the will of those who wish to govern him. [A convenient light lobotomy]” “The real reason behind water fluoridation is not to benefit children's teeth. If this were the real reason there are many ways in which it could be done that are much easier, cheaper, and far more effective. The real purpose behind water fluoridation is to reduce the resistance of the masses to domination and control and loss of liberty.” “When the Nazis under Hitler decided to go into Poland, both the German General Staff and the Russian General Staff exchanged scientific and military ideas, plans, and personnel, and the scheme of mass control through water medication was seized upon by the Russian Communists because it fitted ideally into their plan to communize the world. ...”
“I was told of this entire scheme by a German chemist who was an official of the great IG Farben chemical industries and was also prominent in the Nazi movement at the time. I say this with all the earnestness and sincerity of a scientist who has spent nearly 20 years' research into the chemistry, biochemistry, physiology and pathology of fluorine--any person who drinks artificially fluorinated water for a period of one year or more will never again be the same person mentally or physically.”
Historically, most cases of fluoride poisoning have been caused by accidental ingestion of insecticides or rodenticides (e.g. sodium fluoroacetate) containing fluoride. Currently most cases are due to the ingestion of toothpaste.[ref] Water fluoridation is the controlled addition of fluoride to a public water supply to reduce tooth decay. In an analysis published in the March 2006 issue of the Journal of Evidence Based Dental Practice, the authors examine the water fluoridation controversy in the context of the precautionary principle. The authors note that:
The flood of sodium fluoride in water and food also creates other more serious health problems that are not widely publicized, even suppressed. According to a scientific study done several years ago, Comparative Toxicity of Fluorine Compounds, industrial waste sodium fluorides are 85 times more toxic than naturally occurring calcium fluoride.[ref] 355 million worldwide receive artificially fluoridated water. Water fluoridation's science and practice are predominantly American and in China an estimated 200 million people receive water fluoridated at or above recommended levels. Communities have discontinued water fluoridation in some countries, including Finland, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Switzerland.[ref] Since 1952 a slick PR campaign rammed the concept of 'fluoridation' through the Public Health departments and various dental organizations.[ref]
In addition to fluorosis, independent labs and reputable researchers have linked the following health issues with daily long term intake of sodium fluoride:
The antidotes to get the fluoride out of the pineal gland The fulvic acid in Shilajit carries complexed minerals in “trace” amounts only, and should not be confused with metallic minerals. Fulvic acid has the ability to complex and remove toxic metals and other minerals from the system. After you consume one kilo of Shilajit you will be out of the matrix.[ref]
Do not use tooth products with flour. Switch to fluor-free toothpaste; Use liquorice extract to prevent dental caries instead of toothpastes containing fluor (fluoride). Filter the fluoride out of the tap water. Fluoridation does not affect the appearance, taste or smell of drinking water.[ref] Keep in mind that boiling tap water only increases the concentration of fluoride to water more. But removing fluoride from tap water is not so difficult. Reverse osmosis works well for removing fluorides. If you own your home and can spring for the bucks, you can have one installed under the sink in your kitchen. That makes things very convenient for your fluoride removal from tap water. Avoid using fluoride toothpaste as recommended by the dentists. Avoid fluorine drugs. Numerous drugs contain fluorine (fluorides are compounds that combine fluorine with some positively charged counterpart) including antipsychotics such as fluphenazine, HIV protease inhibitors such as tipranavir, antibiotics such as ofloxacin and trovafloxacin, and anesthetics such as halothane.[ref] Though F2 is too reactive to have any natural biological role, fluorine is incorporated into compounds with biological activity. Naturally occurring organofluorine compounds are rare.[ref] Fluorine is used to help prevent toxication or to delay metabolism[ref] but fluroine in itself is toxic. Useful links related to fluoride:
International relations “Of course, the member states of the United Nations and the European Union created the conventions, and they can annual them at will. But the conventions would have to be undone the way they were done: by global consensus.”[United Nations]. I agree with that, get the countries out of the UN.
