The Melting PotWritten by Tom Horn
Continued from page 1 I can tell you now that there are many well-intentioned people in society that make it their life's work to set up scenarios where high degrees of imperfect knowledge prevail. These people want to create a classless society. They want to mix up different types of people and different classes, cultures and races. Their passionate intention is that love, peace and harmony should result. This has not and will not happen because when two different types of people confront each other for first time a degree of ‘imperfect knowledge’ arises depending on how different their thought processes are. And this ‘imperfect knowledge’ makes them available to living trends from which no good can come. This is why wise rulers of past were concerned to keep different types and classes of people from ever coming into contact. They did this so that incidence of ‘imperfect knowledge’ could be kept low and threshold leading to melting pot would not be crossed. Through these measures they sought to empower people in best possible way and avoid having to deal with human rights, race relations and marriage counseling, which become big issues after living trends have wrought havoc in melting pot of life. In contrast, many well intentioned people and unwise rulers of today take real 'power' away from individuals in society by placing them in a melting pot of confusion and unsolvable problems. The dispirited individuals (you and me) then feel obliged to consult nearest authority for help. So well-intentioned people and unwise rulers get to boost their dubious status and 'power'. Some do this unconsciously and they are simply foolish. Some may do it knowingly and they are wicked. The well-intentioned people of this world go to great lengths to promote moral conduct. They want to stamp out guile, lying, stealing, killing, greed, committing adultery and even picking your nose I shouldn’t wonder. The point about listed traits, with possible exception of picking your nose, is that, in any given situation, they will drive up parameter of ‘imperfect knowledge’. This, as I have said, will propel sinners and all participants in situation into melting pot and make them available to living trends. Since living trends lead to negative surprises, moral conduct is a good thing. However true reason for moral conduct is never explained or understood. Therefore moral acts drive up parameter of ‘imperfect knowledge’ making perpetrators available to living trends as well. Moral people are then constrained to live a double life, practicing their morals in public, while living trends make them sin like crazy in private. How often have we been delighted when a pillar of community has had their private skeletons dragged into public gaze by media? The moral is that if you are going to commit a moral act, know what you are doing and it will become an act of ‘power’. If you know not what you do, your act will be folly. The melting pot in which we all live self-organizes in shape of living trends. Because this is so, we can speak of types of self-organizing ‘power’ or vortexes of disembodied ‘intent’ that affect people individually and collectively in society. This makes our world a magical place. Within melting pot, it is only people who embody a true knowledge of reality that are able to interact with those possessed by unrealistic world-views or mind viruses. Their special strategy for interacting results in (a) avoidance of living trends and (b) accumulation of self-organizing ‘power’. The latter can then be used to create world of their choice.

| | The Folly of Problem SolvingWritten by Tom Horn
Continued from page 1 The second problem with problem solving is that problem solver’s life self-organizes in such a way that, without realizing it, he lives myth of Greek hero Hercules. Remember Hercules making a stand against monstrous Hydra, chopping off its ‘heads’ only to be surprised by more problem ‘heads’ growing at other locations on body. The actions of Hercules and problem solver merely generate more problems – somewhere. Life in round is not enhanced in any way. Our world divides itself into various ‘levels’. There is a predictable ‘level’ to which laws of science apply and which we are exploiting to provide all items of technology. This is realm of problem solver, where, unfortunately, his solutions often become new problems. He thus keeps himself in business indefinitely. However, there is also an inherently surprising ‘level’ of world. This encompasses daily interactions of people and, because this ‘level’ self-organizes in an inherently surprising way, it is magical. Within this everyday ‘level’ of reality it is practical to abandon folly of problem solving and simply choose life you would prefer. Although you must first choose a goal, it would have to emerge as a surprise. For this reason it would be necessary to live creatively using a STRATEGY FOR GETTING NICE SURPRISES. If an advanced and friendly race of people from another planet were to contact us here on earth, first thing they would divulge is this magical method. You can also find it revealed in various esoteric texts like New Testament Gospels and in works on Taoism.
