i guess that it's hard to put it all together. i think that essentially i've got a lot of different angles on it, and people like, you hear for instance one group calling them "jerry bears" while the official cannon is that the bears were an homage to bear stanley's dancing, and first appeared on, what was it, bear's choice? I'm not sure, really. So some of this is piecemeal, but once in a while...
I think when the mk ultra experiments were rolling around, robert hunter got involved, along with some others, and what i was told unofficially was that the man was not only dosed and asked to describe the session in a vox humana that was a bit more verbose as an artist, but anyway, they showed them something in there that was hidden, powerful secrets that were not revealed, and then he was told more or less not to tell anyone about it.
i think more or less what was revealed were that, i mean, i can only surmise, but that for instance at the highest levels, that there are truths that the military interact with that most people never become aware of, but are in fact all actual reality, however it appears, that God and the very devil are in fact real, as best i can put it together.
i don't know how the rosicrucians are involved, or the freemasons, but just by sheer numbers it's certain to have drawn a strange and pretty doggone rough crowd.
i've heard that it was bread and circuses, and that it was allowed to go on because it gave people that would normally disrupt society and cause it to change unpredictably a place to go where they could escape from statist paycheck slavery. what a lot of good people found were prison, hell, and death. it was serious work being out there, and not always a very nice place.
i think that the eleusian mystery cult may have more or less had some presence over there, or it may have been sort of given a place to take root from watchers that were able to sort of sustain cross culturally, I only guess. you get out there and take a little or a lot if you can and then psychologically die, not just kind of, but like actually face up to eternity when you're ready. if you're ready to go, I don't know, but if you're willing to be brave and crazy enough to stick around and help, you wake up in a puddle of yourself swimming around in gravel with the whole universe inside you and your outside the whole universe. on pain of death I cannot say, but here it is, I suppose.
then the band plays out your heart up there on the stage, and it's not always easy. they know all your secrets, and they play them aloud to the crowd.
and sometimes, it was rumored, that you could hear the voice of God up there. I know it was told me in my time with them that you would hear the band, who was very very much aware of what was going on out there with a bird's eye view of things, it would as a whole interact with the crowd, and when you heard it, you heard it, but what I have found is that the voice of God, and friends, is the whole of life, the music of the spheres is your sensory apparatus and everything you're taking in is a dialog between darkness and light for you, if you should be crazy enough, to stand and to choose.
So, it actually was where the two of them were involved, I think, and the more you dealt with it, there it was.
I think, more or less as I understand it, that the grateful dead were a Christian band with sundry ties to the CIA and high places of human experience that are not accessible typically to the peasantry which made it their lives to ...interfere? interact? With the work being done out there. And I think this very well have meant God and Lucifer as well.
I have more to write, but I need to go right now.
