If you want to chat this up on BD Now!, let me know. I think Michael
Roboz has also put your name forward.
Dear Allan,
You can put this up on your list if you like. In any event, please thank
Michael.
Methinks that until there is a real splinter group out there that
numbers not in the scores but in the thousands or tens of thousands, no
change is going to happen. You know, I don't even care if they get to
keep their trademark anymore. It's a heavy millstone that they carry.
Very heavy, very negative Karma. Everyone I talk to about biodynamics
has absolutely nothing good to say about it. And well they shouldn't.
The troika has done nothing to legitimize themselves or Steiner's
ideas. Greed, ignorance, sloth - every imaginable Deadly Sin have they
brought to themselves. The numerology on the word "biodynamic" is
terrible, guaranteeing failure - and strife too.
There is far too much evil around them to give themselves even a ghost
of a chance to succeed at any task they set for themselves (as Steiner
predicted). Slowly but surely, I and my gang are building a business, a
reputation for excellence and miracles, although not in agriculture, a
consensus that we have figured out how to make Steiner stuff work, a
consensus that we need to look beyond the BDidiots and the Anthros to
something more in keeping with what people can do, can accept and can
understand, and, more in keeping with what Steiner envisioned.
Our philosophy is KISS: Keep It Simple Stupid. Work with, and
concentrate on, the basics - that's what I do best anyway. I've
developed a multi-million dollar product. With that kind of money, we
can accomplish anything. Face it, "biodynamic" is not even on the radar
of consumers and, as I said, has a well deserved terrible reputation
with farmers. It never will, in their hands.
The best way to understand the unfathomable, i.e. Steiner, is to relate
it to something you DO understand as I have done with my metaphysical
and scientific training, and as Glen has done with his knowledge of
astrology. Steiner was uniquely Steiner and no amount of study of what
he said will grant anyone any greater wisdom than what they already
know. It is only the facts that remain. (All these Anthros and
Bdidiots go around quoting Steiner as if they understood what he meant.
They don't. "Steiner said this. Steiner indicated that.")
In us all is the intuitive insight to understand and internalize the
basic Truths that all the great saints and avatars pass on to us, and
remind us, exist. God speaks the Truth to anyone willing to listen with
humility, grace and silence. The truths spoken of by the Rishis in the
ancient yoga texts deal not so much with right living as they do with
right thinking and right feeling. This leads to right living, right
wisdom and a return to Spirit. All things exist as Individualized
Expressions Of Spirit. All of us serve a higher purpose. Some serve as
good examples, some as bad examples. The Anthro organizations, the BDA,
Demeter and JPI serve as good examples of failures. The proof is in the
results. In almost 80 years, worldwide, the number of people using
Steiner's remedies and suggestions in agriculture is not measurable when
compared to those not using his ideas. In nearly 80 years since his
famous lectures, almost nothing has happened.
Recently, someone told me that Hugh Courtney said that the "preps" being
made in Europe are no longer working. As you know, I predicted that
would happen. Without the wisdom, knowledge and intuitive insight, and
without Horn Clay to mediate between the forces in calcium and silica,
the preps can't work in today's world. The matrix that overlays the
Earth has changed since 1924. In fact, it has changed so much that
without clay to mediate, potentized calcium and silica have no real
effect on the land, plants, animals or people. Yet despite that fact
that how to successfully make Horn Clay was explained (by me) on BDNOW
over five years ago, they don't make it or use it, and neither does JPI.
The answer to the riddle as to why they don't use it is simple. They
haven't evolved enough to understand what it is, what it does and why
they should use it.
But there's much more to be criticized about "biodynamics", a word I
rarely use anymore. Most notably, major weaknesses exist. I've never
publicly stated this but I will now. First (or second after Horn Clay�)
is that they have no scientific evidence that their version of Steiner
Agriculture works. (They keep it in the realm of metaphysical magic
essentially saying that Steiner can't be understood except by the
"priests" of Anthro and BD.) This, of course, is the antithesis of what
Steiner himself espoused. The reason that they have no science is that
(a) the remedies (also called "preps" by some) applied in their raw
state are generalized in nature and cannot be isolated in a specific
area. It took Glen and Peter to overcome this obstacle. Now, we have
developed a great deal of scientific testing and have independent
laboratory reports supporting the remedies. To be frank, the BDidiots
couldn't figure out how to do this. (b) Greed and ignorance. The
taking of the trademark was the nail that finally killed "biodynamics".
Steiner said, to paraphrase, "give it to everyone". Demeter and the BDA
said, we're going to keep it to ourselves to "protect" it. That's what
Hitler originally did to the Jews by putting them in camps and ghettos
to "protect" them. We all know where that led. That is evil.
Now, to the moral relativists on your list who can't tell the difference
between right and wrong, who have lost the ability known as
"discriminative thinking", my statement may sound absurd. Well it is to
them simply because they cannot identify truth from lies. I think
you're smarter than that. Truth is truth. Moral relativists will never
know the difference and what we have in the Anthro and BDidiot
organizations is moral relativism run amok.
So they will never succeed at getting Steiner agriculture out there.
Now second general observation is as follows: Contrary to what some
might believe, or some might claim, there is no "biodynamic system of
farm management". There is no system at all. With no science to
support it, no organized method of management, no proof that it works,
what would you expect. I have worked for 10 years and spent over
$600,000 developing a vineyard management system based on science and
reason. It works. If I could do it, why can't they? The answer is
that they're greedy. I've read all the books. I've read Demeter's
regulations. It's all nothing more than organic agriculture plus some
sprays that may or may not work and some compost that seems to have
something to offer. That's it. The rest is recognized as organic
agriculture, that is agriculture without all the poisons, although
little poisons are okay. Never figured out that one.
Third, using the raw "BD preps" is cumbersome, difficult, time consuming
and is generally viewed by farmers in the same way that Shakespeare
viewed witches over a cauldron stirring newt's eyes and lizard's toes
(Macbeth I believe). Farmers say it doesn't work. Farmers say, "Where's
the proof?" Okay. So, I ask again, where is the science? Where is the
proof? It doesn't exist. The BDidiots and Anthros never figured it
out. Result? Failure on their part. Failure to educate and convince
the general farming population that Steiner's ideas work. But the
Anthros and BDidiots still have their jobs (that's essential) because
they ripped off Steiner's ideas and they con people into following them
in the name of following him. Of course, they haven't a clue what
Steiner said, meant or understood so they all get together and talk
about what they don't know as if the journey was more important than the
destination. But they sure know how to talk. It's all a farce.
By contrast, we use some of Steiner's remedies in our sprays and have,
for example, one independent lab test that proves that the application
of a few drops of our water based homeopathic remedy for wine reduces
phenolic compounds in red wine by an average of 10.5%. This leads to
softer tannins and a taste that is akin to wine aged 3 to 5 years. Of
course, it took us years to reach the point where we had a remedy that
could do this.
You know, with the addition of the Oregon farm given to the BDA, their
net worth could be over $1,000,000 now. They have access to plenty of
money from Europe. Why can't they introduce science into Steiner
Agriculture? Simple, they don't understand it.
Today, I decided maybe to make a short video on my philosophy re:
Steiner/Burbank/Carver and Agri-Synthesis�. That should be fun.
What I have learned from these three men is that the Creator lives in
all things. Ask and you will receive the answers. In 1924, Rudolf
Steiner said, "Nutrition as it is today does not supply the strength
necessary for manifesting the spirit in physical life. A bridge can no
longer be built from thinking - to will and action. food plants no
longer contain the forces people need for this." The need to bring his
ideas and techniques to the world is more important today than it was in
1924. The fact is, the official keepers of the secret doctrine have
failed all of humanity and will Karmically suffer the consequences.
In 1924, Luther Burbank said, "An honest search for the truth gives
suppleness for harmonious adaptation to an ever changing environment.
Orthodoxy is anchylosis - nobody at home; ring up the undertaker for
further information." Having no clue what Steiner said and meant,
having no understanding of his insight into the way things work, having
no humility or openness to God and His Infinite Possibilities, has
created not just a sense of paralysis, but have sent these poor
ignorant, egotistical souls into areas of speculation that are so far
from what Steiner said and what he based his recommendations on that
they do not even remotely resemble what he said or did. They have
perverted and bastardized virtually everything he said. This is what I
mean when I say "the blind leading the blind". If you don't understand
the assumptions, the laws and the principles of a science, how can
anyone expect you to make any progress in that science?
George Washington Carver once said, "There is literally nothing that I
ever wanted to do . . . that I asked the blessed Creator to help me to
do, that I have not been able to accomplish. It's all very simple, if
one knows how to talk with the Creator." Do you know any Anthro or
BDidiot who can do this?
Herein lies the crux of the problem with official Anthroposophy and
Biodynamics worldwide. There is no one in the official organizations or
sponsored or recommended by them who has the ability to speak directly
with the Creator and inspire people with their insights and wisdom.
There is no one who can do this any longer. Having a Ph.D. in
agriculture does not grant this kind of ability that can only be
developed through meditation and prayer, and serving and living to
please God in all one does. Working with Alan Chadwick doesn't either.
Without the Guidance of the Divine, they become the blind leading the
blind, subject to every whim of evil and greed that the deadly, negative
forces of Ahriman and Lucifer can summon upon them. Without the
protection of The Divine Spirit in all they do, they cannot lead the
rest of the world to an understanding of the Divine Laws and Principles
that these three great men were able to do and which allowed Steiner to
gain so many useful insights in his work. They are ungodly men and
women. Interesting to look at, but no wise person will follow them.
And they don't.
There's no one there to teach them. No leader. No wise man. No wise
woman. No body. Vacuous. A vacuum at the top, middle and bottom.
Good people leave organizations like these - one way or the other. More
often than not, if they try to enlighten them, they are kicked out.
Which is good for all humanity because this moves things along the Path
of Truth.
So, while it is fun to speculate between ourselves as to what kind of
Executive Director Demeter may hire, I think you are absolutely correct
in your assessment that without a seachange in these organizations, all
we will see is more of the same nonsense, lunacy, stupidity and idiocy.
Good for us, bad for them. All the really good and talented people have
left. What remains is what is always remains when this happens. The
scum. It rises to the top. Beware of false profits.
I guess this kills my chances to be offered the job.
Greg
