AN ANGEL ON MY SHOULDER:

ANGEL ON MY SHOULDER: Here is a dilemma. What would you do if, as a writer, you stumbled on a real life story experienced by another person that was so extraordinary, so potentially world changing, and had been instructed by 'angels' to be written? You would have to write it, wouldn't you? And what if you realised as you were doing so that some of the very language, words and descriptions you were using that were true and essential to the veracity of the story were by their very nature misleading and would reinforce preconceived beliefs?

The very word 'angels' is one - real existences to some, fantasies and delusional emotional crutches to others.

And if the story explained how scientific thought, from natural selection to quantum mechanics, was simply another aspect of its 'apparent' opposite - universal consciousness, timelessness and the continuation of the life force then it really would be something, wouldn't it?

And then, if it is posited that there is on Earth a person whom religions would call 'Messiah' (Christian); Mahdi (Islam) or Krishna (Hinduism) and would be the essence of every other belief on the planet, who will emerge into the world and prepare it and all life in existence to shift to a new evolutionary state (meaning all religions, politics and human organisation would dissolve and change), then that would be the biggest story around.

Especially as this person cannot read or write.

Which is why the book 'Angel On My Shoulder' had to be written.

Publishers and editors, however, will probably be unable to grasp the reality of the book and the story. So much so that I have to describe it as fiction. It may not fit in to a publishing market. There must be a brave and heroic publisher out there somewhere.

Even if cynical, just think of the PR spin - a book that angels prophesied would be written.
THIS MONTH'S RANT: In the UK Big Brother has truly arrived. Someone should count the sheer number of oppressive rules, regulations, taxes, surveillance techniques and control freakery that is being imposed on the people who 'never shall be slaves'. Check out the Bilderberger Society where the 'New World Order' is being plotted. Britons are fleeing the country and 'illegals' are pouring in on forged passports to do all the jobs the Brits don't want and learn to binge drink. I am not sure what multiculturalism is, except for those who sit around in 'ism' meetings. We are human beings - we don't need any more 'isms'. No go areas are now a reality; integration a quango's pipe dream and the true nature of our 'spirituality' lost in translation. Even the word has lost its real meaning, as has 'God', 'destiny', 'faith' and 'reality'. We are truly in the Sanskrit days of Kali Yuga.

Employers are terrified to put up tinsel and decorations at Christmas (or even call it Christmas) in case they upset non-Christians. Pathetic! No sign of Divali (wonderful event) being emasculated or Hannukah or any other festival. Whatever you believe, the time is coming when another kind of new order will begin.
