Principia

Principia are memetic principles by which to manufacture one’s life. These principles accord with both Hindu-Tibetan-Buddhist doctrines of “right livelihood” and the Wikipedia:Noble Eightfold Path, and Henry David Thoreau‘s doctrinal example of voluntary simplicity.

The Principia

  1. Your dollar is your vote.
    1. Or, Your non-dollar-denominated currency is your vote.
    2. What they label, libelously, “your vote” isstatistically insignificant; lends credence to the tyranny of the Commons, the Corporate State, and the State (that most profitable of all Corporations); and deceives you to the verity of how false power propogates and is worn. False power, with wild aplomb, flows fro the barbed song of bombs and bullets (e.g., “gunboat capitalism”) and barter’s wicker-work of trade and trammeling dollars (e.g., “capitalism”). But both are war. You don’t bomb or trade with your family, or barter bushels of bullets for dollars with friends of lesser families. But, if you must wage war — wage it, full knowing, with a fistful of dollars.
  2. Systems insisting you select the lesser of two evils are evil.
    1. Avoid relation with evil systems; little good comes of congregation with belittling evil.
  3. Systems insisting you select the lesser of two evils are weak.
    1. Avoid relation with weak systems; this is how you kill those systems.
    2. Corporations have revenue only insofar as you consume their relic baubles. Governments have revenue only insofar as they tax your revenue. Reflecting this principle, you change the world.
  4. The macrocosm reflects the microcosm.
    1. Change thyself, first. That change will be reflected in the world.
  5. The microcosm reflects the macrocosm.
    1. Know that when you change thyself, that that reflects a change in the world.
  6. Work no more than primitive peoples work.
  7. Do what you would rather be doing, and you will be.

The Fraternalia

For,

People do not go to hell after death. The designers and builders of hell are human beings. The designs and buildings are almost completed. It is becoming difficult to add more hell.
