Yeah I'm hearing you on the "it's almost impossible to get an overall picture of the puzzle".
Its like the ultimate puzzle show Maze and we're in it hey! haha.
I look around the world and see a psychotic mindless bunch of loonies not questioning how or why they choose what they do.
Have you heard of John Lash? He wrote an interesting book called Not in His Image. that you may find interesting.
When I look around (I don;t watch TV (Tell Lie Vision) I see obvious signing everywhere of a parasitic type mindset going on. Logic tells me that this is very unatural to humanities true concious way of being & seeing so to speak,
The tribal ways in America and around the world are very interesting how they looked at this experience. Here in Australia the natives called it the Dreaming, very similar to the Telestic way really.

Anyways, its my dawn time and my chickens and Rooster want me to pop out and play a bit.
Thanks heaps for your 'ramblings' .................. Ramble On :)
