Alitheia in Ancient Greek means not merely ”Truth” as
we think of it in English. It
means literally, un-covered, dis-covered, discovery, unveiled. Martin
Heidegger saw the significance of this and went into it at
length in his book, Parmenides. I want to go into it even more deeply.
In
a time like the present where propaganda, disinformation
and psy-ops are being constantly
and heavily utilized to dupe the masses in America, Britain
and Europe (throughout the entire English-speaking world), truth of
government wrong-doing, abuse-of-power and do-it-yourself-false-flag-terrorism,
is constantly covered-up and needs uncovered, alitheia. The
English word, Truth, etymologically connects to the same root as trust,
which implies hypnotic states, conditioning and belief. In English, truth is merely what people
firmly believe, have faith in. In
the English-speaking world, whatever people believe without
question, without inquiry and investigation, is supposed
to be “Truth”. This is the underlying sociolinguistic
tendency. The very meaning of “Truth” in
English is whatever the stupid masses are manipulated to
believe by their government so their government can successfully cover-up, litheia,
with lies.
In
Ancient Greece, the Truth, Alitheia, is the Truth-That-Comes-Out,
the Uncovered Truth, as a result of successful investigation
of the cover-up, the lies and illusions of the time. Truth,
Alitheia, is finding out what is really going on, what has
really happened. Truth, Alitheia, in Ancient Greece, is a disillusionment, an awakening from common mass belief. But
in the modern world of government cover-up, Truth-That-Uncovers-The-Facts is always
called a “Conspiracy Theory” in the sense of
a “crank belief of people who want to disrupt society”. This
is the tendency in Ancient Greece which itself culminated
in the martyrdom of Socrates. Socrates,
like Parmenides, was a devotee of Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, the Goddess
of Uncovering Real Truth. It
was not merely Socrates who was martyred in Athens, but Alitheia, the Goddess
of Uncovering, of Discovery. The
present governments of America and Britain are working very hard to kill Alitheia,
Uncovered Truth, yet again and again.
When
a pattern of belief, a worldview or paradigm, is socially
constructed as a “reality” in the human brain,
it will reject unpleasant facts that do not fit the constructed
pseudo-reality. Learning happens
when through investigation the constructed pseudo-reality
pattern in the cognitive system is broken down into its elements,
which can then be reconfigured to include previously rejected unpleasant facts, which leads to
a new paradigm. Periodic
paradigm-shifting from time to time, even from the new paradigm
to the new new paradigm,
is the learning process as opposed to the mere cumulative
effort of only building up the present paradigm with reinforcing
facts that seem to fit the current belief.
Philosophical
expressions that do not entail paradigm-shifting through
extensive and profound inquiry and investigation, which is
a manifested learning process, are false philosophy. Any
rigid belief or disbelief in the name of “philosophy” is
a farce, an actual failure to philosophize. Real questioning of a belief or disbelief
is the resurrection of Alitheia, the Ancient-Greek-Goddess-of-Dynamic-Truth-as- Discovery-and-Real-Learning.
Real
philosophy is a very rare thing on the Earth at this time
because it has become equated with cynical post-modern scientific
materialism as a mediocre anti-metaphysical position, a rigid
paradigm, a disbelief system. These
modern pseudo-philosophers are the new priesthood of what
Robert Anton Wilson calls, The
New Inquisition. Take
a look around you. Who
do you know who really questions the obvious cover-ups and
lies of the government and the mass-media? Who
do you know who really thinks, who has genuine philosophical
inquiry, who has a real learning
process, who wants to renew cosmological and ontological
metaphysics beyond beliefs and disbeliefs?
Take
a look around you. Really
look. Who is not brain-dead, just mindlessly
staring in a dreamy state of anxious hedonism without depth,
without inquiry or higher human development of awareness,
intuition and extrasensory perception? Who
do you know who is searching for the real history of Earth
and humanity or the full cosmic facts of extraterrestrial
humanities? Take
a real look at the hypnotized zombies all around you, including
those you are personally attached to. Have
you not painfully noticed how flat and boring, superficial
and gossipy, most of your family, friends and associates
are? It is like
they all want to be assimilated by the Borg so as to avoid
even the possibility of
waking-up real thinking, individuality and spiritual evolution. They are conformist biological robots
who are happily allowing their unused “civil liberties” to
be removed by their criminally insane government for the
sake of collective pseudo-security on a planet destined
to suffer catastrophic loss of petrol/gasoline coupled with
runaway global warming.
Everywhere
all around us is a numb and thoughtless humanity drifting
stupidly and heedlessly into mass destruction at the hands
of government and the mass media. Philosophy
is dying; originary thinking is not being attempted. Anxious, tense and blind materialistic
selfishness is everywhere lurching into chaos and destruction. Good thinking and good work are being
replaced by nastiness, resentment and corrupt escapism. The average person is losing it, losing
whatever was there of intelligence and Spirit. Neurotic
and psychotic behavior are on the
increase.
The
Ancient Greek meaning of Truth as Alitheia, the Uncovered, naked Goddess
of Truth, is about a passionate inquiry into the real trends
of human life and consciousness. Wake
it up in yourself with total intensity or you will just go
increasingly into the meaningless hell of the stupid masses. If
you have enough going for you to read my words, why not take
the greater step you now need to take?
