Keynote Speech from Ed Begins The Great Reveal

Mister Ed speaks for all planetmates. While it is clear he’s speaking from his own heart, Ed seems to be channeling the cumulative observations and feelings of the unimaginable number of living and dead of all species ever to live on this planet, especially those that observed us. In this message, they bring not just a wake-up call, a warning, and understanding of ourselves that goes beyond what we know. They bring also the way back, to sanity, to safety, in that they tell us not only how we’ve gone wrong, but also how we once had gone right and could once again.

You Ain’t Born Typical

The planetmates show us where we foolishly rebelled against a beneficent Universe, or God; and chose instead to go it alone, to reject the gift of the “given way” of happiness. We did such a stupid thing being fooled by our hubris, which actually arose out of a kind of inferiority complex we carried from birth, being only half-borns compared to all other species.

“No, for it seems that no matter how facile your kind is in lying even to itself, your kind still has some kind of basic survival mechanism that tells them that they have in fact performed great evil — great evil and suffering that could very well result in an uprising against them by an enraged populace.

“But then under Reagan, just as now in the eight years under Bush the W where it became increasingly clear to the overseers that only the complete stomping into the dirt of the other than wealthy could keep them from rising up in revolt.... Yes, then too, part of them knew the great wrong they were doing and were fearful — so what else is new? — your kind doing the greatest of evils and terrorizing and murdering because of the fears that the tyrants harbor.

“So these class wars — well hardly wars.... For with the wealthy always and everywhere not only controlling and directing the Muscle and Might — used to keep the masses down and humbled and suffering and near starving, as a way of keeping them from getting strong enough to rise up in anger…

You will also, no doubt, be surprised, perhaps enlightened! ... as to the reasons these observers — these planetmates, meaning all the other-than-human life forms we share this planet with — who have studied us from our first beginnings, give as to our apparent nonchalance as death hangs over the entire planet, including ourselves and our families.1

Planetmates also seem to have more compassion for us than do some of our own humans for the masses of humankind. They point out that many good attempts by humans have been undercut, squelched, and more, by a certain group of greedy humans, intent only on short-term profit.

We know who some of them are, in fact.2

Still, it is hard to imagine the reasons that such a great number of these people would have to want to disable us from saving the planet and them along with it.

…a budget.”

The Rationalizations of Tyrants

“As for big government, while he slashed programs — ‘budget cuts’ they were called — he bloated the military, as if that were somehow not considered government. In essence his theories were the old rehashed rationalizations of strong men down through the ages — kings, tyrants, nobles — all those who loudly proclaimed — as if by repeating it enough it could make it true — that they, the rich and privileged, were the best managers of wealth ... and so they proceed with their robbing and stripping away of the prosperity of all those below them, keeping them on a level of bare subsistence.

“By the way, we know, for we witnessed it, that that extra seemingly unnecessary stripping away of any form of wealth that might grant a little security was not done for the earlier reasons: that is, the ‘we’re better managers and will make us all prosperous’ rationale.

…people. So figuratively we are in the midst of a trillion-alarm fire that’s blazing further out of control and soon will be unstoppable. You may be one of us who are wondering why, in such an extreme emergency, most folks are, well, in denial, or, “compartmentalizing,” or, “got their heads in the sand” or up some dark part of their anatomy. or “fiddling while Rome burns,” or any of the other things you’ve heard and observed from these others. You may be wondering at their complacency and their refusal to hear, even, that their lives and that of their families are on the line; or you may be astonished that they fail to see that their turning their back on this threat could be something they will hate themselves for, well, not long here, but if there’s eternity, well, that long.

So, readers already thinking this way will hardly be offended by the message from our nonhuman brothers and sisters, and will want to know what the message is. Still, you’re going to get a lot more than you expect. It’s guaranteed that you’ll be shown a way of seeing humans and our actions that has never occurred to humans.

“So as this occurs, will we still be lauding this supposed great god, The Reagan, who convinced the world — rather than to listen to the youth and the previous president and to prepare for this horror — instead charmed the world, like a snake charmer, into forgetting itself and its survival and into focusing on money ... and not even the prosperity of the majority...?

“No, rather Reagan began again that thousands of years old evil of your kind of the powerful feeding on the less powerful making them weaker, and despairing again.

But what remains is something stronger. You see humanity in a new light. It is one that opens a door on a reality greater than the one humans have contrived for their benefit alone. In doing this, you are invited to a return to unity with Nature and a harmonious understanding of our role, perhaps our destiny, in the grand scheme of things.

Central to all this is an acknowledgement and understanding of how we have come to set ourselves against Nature and all life on this planet. That is the starting point for a re-visioning of humans in Nature: We must begin with looking at the consequences of our estrangement. Certainly, as in any other process of revelation, seeing clearly allows an opportunity for transformation, whereas staying stuck in counterproductive habits of thought leads only to increasing stagnation of life process and a slow, though feverish, slide to death. Beyond that, vistas of larger possibilities for humanity abound. One might very well see their own destiny and future within them.

To foresee a path for ourselves or humanity, requires not only a conceptualization of a possible goal, but an honest understanding of where we are in relation to it. It is to that, that we now turn.

“Well, in a time that is many times over a billion, this planet has never before seen such a scepter of death hanging over it.... And this person who is praised roundly — even by some of your Democrats, again it must be that desperate wanting to be liked you guys have — his big accomplishment, exactly, was what again? Oh, he cut taxes and was supposed to be for smaller government. 

“So, as we approach the end of all beings, all stories ending in one final, perhaps agonizingly stretched out period of years of horror and insanity as those still alive watch the kind of horrific ending that even your best Hollywood folks could not imagine.... 

“We watch, death all around us, and know that it will come sweeping our way at any time ... so much in fear — now there’s a fear that’s real beyond all imagining, not like those imaginary fears of yours that has brought us here....

PREFACE

…most elemental kind.

Of course, rationalism has been proven incorrect in the social sphere as well ... witness the Tea Party and right wing rhetoric in general.

The idea that humans are rational is now a joke. The idea that we are “God’s chosen species” and magically endowed with the senses and quality of those perceptions to see reality better than any other species that we even know of ... well, that would be a joke if the inherent arrogance in that were not so un-funny.

This book goes a long way toward overturning these and many other biases we have — self-congratulatory prejudices humans have in looking out at Nature. You will be challenged and confronted to think differently about many things you thought were certain. Attitudes and habits of thought are undermined.

But what remains is something stronger. You see humanity in a new light. It is one that opens a door on a reality greater than the one humans have contrived for their benefit alone.

“And we have no such leanings or even understand them, so we’ve all seen clearly what was done: Hating the truth of the grinning farmer, you have turned and bowed to the lying leaders, like your most recent president, the W, and especially the one who in 1980 began the process of stomping out the truth that had flowered earlier giving us all hope. While those presidents did much harm, why the one is even being honored as somehow great, even as his legacy may be that he destroyed the only chance this planet had of making it through a hundred years.

“And, ironically enough this buffoon king is revered just as your world descends into an economic collapse he set in motion.

Note on Human “Rationality”

In response to the idea I often put forth that our sciences are not only anthropocentric but also built on a highly questionable theological position — a Judeo-Christian one — that we are “God’s chosen species” a reader commented,

“Our science is built on Greek rationalism.”

The implication is that the bases of our sciences, disregarding that the idea of dominion over Nature is central to religious as well as scientific thinking, is that science is “rational” ... hence, irrefutable, it would seem.

My response is that this purported “rationality” of humans, and their sciences, was overturned long ago by Freud and later by the experiential psychotherapies. Even quantum physics demonstrates that we do not view the world at all purely “objectively” in even the most “objective” of sciences. It has shown that the observer — his or her subjectivity — influences the outcome of experiments of the…

“Not only did this former president try to begin the process of transforming your systems to ones that would not hurt the planet, and not only did he fail as even some in his own party were so abhorrently ignorant as to buck him — instead contending that it was the short term gains of the time that should be focused on.... Those short term gains, now, what were they?

“But we watched as your species seemed to grow more rabidly self-destructive as his wisdom did not only land on deaf ears, but he was punished for even bringing it up. Your kind, you hideously rich sorts, say there are different reasons for the fate of this humble farmer. But then, how can you believe a species whose regard for truth is so minuscule that it can be given away for a little bit of attention even?”

…who killed in bloody, ghastly ways, too. Apparently when white man murdered with guns and more sophisticated weaponry it was alright, because it was done in less bloody ways? Further, they never made note of the fact that indigenous people, when they went to war, did very little killing and quite a bit of their “savagery” was merely display.

So white man wiped out these “savages” and committed genocide on entire societies/cultures of them. And the indigenous peoples ... they were the savages?!

I think we currently have a similar attitude about our planetmates as White Man has had about indigenous peoples historically. We are the savages seeing “savagery” in other people ... and in Nature.

We are seeing what is going on in Nature through filters biased in our favor, much like being ethnocentric in judging other cultures and “races.” And with a closer look and putting judgment to the side we come up with an entirely different understanding — one that aids the cross-species understanding between humans and planetmates that is now, and none too soon, dawning on us.

My friend, Sonjamarie Weems, provides an excellent example of how we — humans in general — misinterpret Nature’s ways looking through our cultural biases and filters. She says,

"I remember watching this documentary where a mother elephant killed her baby, and through tears I was thinking that was the cruelest thing I had ever seen another animal do. Years later I watched the same documentary and had a different perspective, because I saw that the herd was starving and that the baby was sick. A pride of lions were already tailing the herd. The mother, knowing that the baby would die first, killed it to likely prevent the agonizing death that she knew was coming to it. It’s hard for us to understand how a mother could do that. Think of the movie Titanic ... who wasn’t upset with the 3rd class mother for putting her children to bed in a sinking ship? Makes you think."

White man used to say Native Americans were savages because they would fight back ferociously in hand-to-hand combat. Indigenous people were depicted as “uncivilized” savages…

…dominance rituals and displays — which have most often been used to support the idea of brutality in Nature — were ultimately found to have been distorted by the male researchers who did them. These primatologists were selective in their picking groups to study; they blew up the significance of the behaviors they witnessed; and they failed to mention behaviors that did not fit their conclusions. So their studies reflected more of the savagery in the human researchers than in the baboon planetmates.

As for warring and mass killing, well, no planetmate is doing anything to end life on this planet like humans are at the moment. Nor are any supposed “dumb” animals engaging in world wars or killing off millions of each other for reasons of collective campaigns of aggression, racism, imperialism, sexism, or religious hatred, like we regularly do

Finally: Have you ever heard of a planetmate other than humans who engage in torture?

Essentially we see in the world of Nature only that which we want to see. And of what we do see, we distort its meaning to rationalize and justify our own worst behavior.

“The hint that if your kind is actually doing so much damage as to eradicate half of the species that still remain — the products of billions of years of, using your word, ‘divine’ orchestration.... Is your kind so fearful that they would rather die and kill us all rather than come to an obvious conclusion? That obviously....

They will just be gone.
