Recently I learned, I had met a 19 year old girl a few years ago who had stayed at my Venice Beach ‘Yesss Meditation Center’. Since her happenstance locating me, and our recent reconnecting, many ensuing phone conversations have happened after 20 some years. This girl, now a successful Vancouver BC political analyst of 43, has recently confided in me, that as a naive girl on her first backpacking trip, which happened in Mexico, she was traumatically ‘scammed’ a couple of times. She, shortly after, showed up at my center. Apparently, regardless of my having forgotten, I had unknowingly helped her heal a bit from her then recent debacle. Part of her reason for diligently locating me was to thank me.
Like my ‘long forgotten friend’, few escape the unknown and/or unexpected experience of being ‘tricked’ into believing someone’s self serving agenda to exploit their gullibility to participate in something that is nothing but a method to selfishly benefit them. On a personal basis it can happen in a  ‘love relationship’, or differently, as it did to me a couple of years ago,  in a tenant refusing to payment monthly rents for reasons of selfish ‘entitlement’.
It’s a racket in any case and in worse case a Frankensteinian abomination that happens in  politics sometimes aligned with economics, racism, the medical cult, media, even religion, or a ponzi scheme, etc. Abuse for control or profit happens in all kinds of mandates for control through fears and mind manipulation. In a sense, the perpetrator is a stalker of your obstructed freedoms from knowing the truth and being free. Evil sometimes slithers in looking like anything that’s good and safe and, sadly, often works. Are even doctors ‘indoctrinated’ by Big Pharma as well as their other overlords.Â
These ‘non do gooders’ are quacks, and in street talk,‘Shit disturbers’. These deceivers real danger is that they often believe their own lies. To go against their belief is very uncomfortable to them. Think of it as a ‘religious cult’ whose thinking goes very deep and they accept everything that profers their belief. If you are in the invisible cult and you begin to question too loudly, you will likely be ostracizes by those who don’t realize that they have become ‘stupidized and idiotize into dishonesty and harm to themselves and others. The con if accepted, can also cause the victim to unknowingly pass it on to others.
The methods in this hi-tech world to hornswoggle most of the populace, who as of yet, are still living in the simpler past, are infinite. Money and greed are friends for all but the few who value the spiritual life of loving themselves and others. Being awake and discerning is key.
Let every situation that appears ‘too good to be true’ become a time for a mental negotiation with reality to rise above the negative. If you have a feeling you’re being hoodwinked, always have contingency plans to avoid it in case your intuition is right. Life is a ‘jewel’, keep it safe and enjoy your blessings. Arhata
