Buddha Clause, an ode to the Original Santa
by Andrei Kievsky
30 November 2003
How often is it that we see phenomena, as they play out in History, turn into their exact opposites?
I see this quite often; enough that I accepted that the world works in diametric opposites.
The best example for 2003 is how the Jews became the very Nazis of which they created a whole Scapegoat religion, and how they turned themselves into their own Ideal of Evil.
It makes perfect sense to say "Jews have become the Nazis they condemn." If you want one line to sum up the whole thing, a slogan or a motto, this is it. Say it to yourself 30 times right now so it ingrains into your head. I wonder if you could say this in Europe and not be arrested under Ethnic Intimidation laws? All of Europe is saying it anyway.
One of my favorite books ever is Paradise Lost, by John Milton, and I was fascinated with the minor devil, Azazel, the scapegoat.
Several years ago I found out from an Israeli that Azazel is the "scapegoat" that gets thrown off a cliff in ancient Hebrew ceremonies. One goat is sacrificed to Yahweh, and the Azazel goat is sacrificed to the Devil and thrown off a cliff, and they say "Le Lech, Azazel." This is the equivalent of "Go to Hell." From the standpoint of anthropological analysis, getting violently thrown off a cliff is a worldly version of Hell.
Clearly, the Dualistic mindset is a powerful thing, for example, the fact that one of the great authorities on Judaism, a Soloveitchik from Yale admitted that Judaism can accurately be described as "a religion of hate."
It permits one to have two faces; one's tribe face, and one's goyim face. Indeed, Barbra Streisand made a movie called "The Mirror has Two Faces." Love for the tribe, Hate for the Other, while making the "Hate" appear benevolent.
For it is not an obvious Hate. It is not a straight shooting, in-your-face Hate that has a fight and settles accounts once and for all. It is rather a systematic misguiding of the Love and the Energy of non-Jews.
The misdirecting of our Energy can be seen in the artificial conflicts created between men and women and between the races. Left alone, we knew how to get along, despite tribal warfare. At least it wasn't civil war. In our homes, in our countries, in our territories, we could know some semblance of peace and harmony, because the races mostly kept to themselves.
Sexual energy is also wildly misguided. Girls are taught to seek excitement and liberation, and the natural balance of sexual competition becomes distorted. Some guys get laid way too easily, and they lose their respect for women. For others it is too difficult, and they become frustrated and absorbed in surrogate activities, and it often happens that as they get a bit older, they are able to attract females but by then they have become a bit distorted, a bit "feral" as it were, and the females complain they are "unable to commit." Angela Fiore wrote on this, though I have not been able to find her writings in Google searches.
Redirecting of energy into that which is good for Jews is the weapon of the Jews, and an effective one it is. And it is very difficult to counter, for those of us who have figured out this weapon.
The cost to Jews in guiding this energy misdirection is that in order to do this, they have to operate Dualistically, and Dualism boomerangs back to them. They created the Holocaust religion and made themselves the Angels and the God of the Holocaust religion, and then they become their own Devils, and for that matter, construct their own Hell.
We are primitively figuring this out (i.e. "de-jew your life!"), and I think I have made a breakthrough in conceptualizing our appropriate response to the Jewish problem, through the philosophy of Qi energy and Buddhism.
As an aside, it is believed that the Buddha was a White person. As the old saying goes, the White man invents and forgets, and the Yellow man copies and remembers.
Here's the most important thing -- it's all about Redirecting our Energy to our own benefits. This is what Life is all about; this is what it means to be a fully realized person. This is liberation.
As soon as you get up in the morning, and until you go to bed at night, you are making decisions as to how to direct your energy.
The rulers of the world depend on controlling how billions of individuals, especially the ones with disposable income, direct their energy.
It is pretty simple to figure out how you should direct your energy. Whatever the rulers want you to do, try to do the opposite.
The practices of qigong and tai chi are about using physical movement to learn how to direct chi energy, how to play with it, how to stoke it up hot and then smooth it down.
Qi exercises are based on Buddhist theory (or vice versa). Buddhism provides a moral law, the Four Great Truths here http://www.4truths.com
In sum, the Four Noble Truths are 1. Don't get attached to any thing or situation, NOTHING is permanent. 2. Desire causes suffering. 3. Cessation of desire ends suffering 4. When desire is cryogenically cooled, and those desire molecules have sufficiently slowed their motions, then you can become wise, get good ideas, that sort of thing.
Santa Claus, in my opinion, is a Western Buddha. That is why it is so ironic, so brutally illustrative of the law of Diametric Opposites, that Santa has come to represent the very opposite of the Buddha's Four Noble Truths. The Christmas season, which is notoriouis as a "suicide season," is a time to view or even experience the very template of Buddhistic desire-suffering.
The Buddha Clause, our beloved Dutch Santa from many centuries ago, always smiled because he had cooled his desires by directing the desire-energy into useful work around his farm, his work shop, and his home. He was a highly skilled artisan, and a jack of all trades. He could repair a wagon wheel, shoe a horse, and grow prize cabbages, and brew his own ale, and he carved wooden toys in his spare time, possibly while drinking his ale.
He lived with the seasons, and the people around him meant everything to him. He was a patriarch, a benevolent despot when necessary, and he saw more than one generation from birth to adulthood (hence an older man).
The most important thing about Buddha Clause is that he was the master of his own Energy, and the Energy of his household, and expended it in ways that brought back benefits.
Because he was the Master of his own Energy, he was able to create a more stable existence for his family and community. Sure he and his people were subject to natural disasters such as plagues and crop failures. And war raiders could possibly come after them. They weren't invincible. But they would never experience things like "downsizing" or layoffs.
Unemployment and drastic economic cycles of Feast and Famine are a result of allowing the few to Control Our Energy.
Santa Buddha Clause is a symbol of generosity and wealth precisely because he was his own CEO, his own Energy Master. He didn't enslave anyone, nor was he a slave to others. He enslaved only himself to his own mastery, thus closing the circle of his own Energy. He was wealthy (in the relative terms of 1500s Holland) without being parasitic. His generosity is that of someone who truly earned the wealth which he gives away.
Santa the Energy Master gives away his knowledge for free, but others are enriched, hence "gifts."
A real conversation I had with a young lady from the rural South. She is married and has a 2-year-old daughter. I found out she makes 250 a week and spends 100 a week on groceries.
"Wow," I said. "So you spend 40% of your paycheck on groceries? That's a lot."
"It sure is. It's too much."
"Well you know, there are a lot of ways you could cut that bill by making your own stuff. For example, how much do you spend a week on butter, cheese and yogurt?"
"Well," she said, "We don't eat yogurt, but my husband loves cheese, and I use a lot of butter in cooking." She thought about it for a moment, and then said, "About 10 dollars a week."
"Ten dollars a week! Out of a paycheck of 250! That's too much. Why don't you buy raw milk and make your own butter and cheese. It'll be much cheaper." What she said next turned out to be a real shocker.
"Yeah, that's a good idea, and my grandma works on a dairy farm. She'll give me all the milk I want for like one dollar a gallon."
"Well why don't you make your own cheese and butter then? You'll save a ton of money! Heck you can sell cheese and butter to your friends and family!"
"Wow, I can't believe I didn't think of that," she said. "We used to do that, I don't know why we stopped."
"Yeah really. Ten dollars a week is five hundred bucks a year. That's two weeks of work just for butter and cheese."
"Oh my God, you're right! I can't believe it. I can't believe I'm wasting my money like this."
"Now I got some more for you."
"OK, what else?"
"OK, get yourself a Kitchenaid mixer with a grain mill attachment and an Excalibur dehydrator, and a steam canner and Mason jars. And a chest freezer. Buy your meat, veggies, fruit and grain in bulk and preserve and process it yourself."
"Oh you know my Grandma knows how to do all that stuff, and she's got a lot of the equipment for that already."
"Well, then, do it! Give yourself your whole grocery bill back, as much of it as you can. Get your Grandma to teach you everything!"
"Oh, I'm going to. That's a good idea."
That's a true story, and it happened about a week ago. It should illustrate how very starkly we are pissing away our Energy because of our inattentiveness and standing inertia. The System is robbing us blind, and we are letting it happen.
Why are Santa Clause and Buddha smiling and laughing? Because they have Mastered their own Energy. They are no one's slave, and their happiness is not predicated on the misery of others.
If the Christmas season has got you down, treat yourself to a Kitchenaid mixer, Excalibur dehydrator, and the book "Stocking Up" by the Rodale press. Become the Energy Master Santa Clause for yourself and for those around you And remember the Four Noble Truths http://www.4truths.com
