Whole Dude – Whole Deficit: The Repeal PRWORA Project

Excerpt: The “Repeal PRWORA Project” advocates for the repeal of Public Law 104-193, also known as the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) signed by US President Bill Clinton in 1996. The organizers argue that this law reintroduced varieties of slavery, including involuntary servitude and forced labor, by unfairly denying retirement income benefits to non-citizen taxpayers who cannot provide proof of lawful residency. Critics claim this law infringes on the constitutional rights of these workers, violating principles of equal treatment, protection, and justice under law. They demand for a strict adherence to the natural law principles abolishing any form of slavery.

Whole Dude – Whole Deficit: The Clinton Curse. The Staggering Budget Deficit in 2020.- In 1996, President Clinton reintroduced Slavery, “A New Beginning” to balance the budget by undermining the protections offered by the Social Security Act.

In my analysis, the Economic Policy of President Bill Clinton is fundamentally flawed for it violated the principles of Natural Law that make America a proud and prosperous nation in the world. The economic downfall of the United States is relentless and is almost unstoppable. There can be no healing and no recovery without the Blessings promised by God and living up to the Official Motto “IN GOD WE TRUST.”

U.S. deficit to soar to record $3.8 trillion in 2020, budget watchdog group says

**Whole Dude – Whole Deficit: The Clinton Curse. The Staggering Budget Deficit in 2020.:**

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A steep economic downturn and massive Coronavirus rescue spending will nearly quadruple the fiscal 2020 U.S. budget deficit to a record $3.8 trillion, a staggering 18.7% of U.S. economic output, a Washington-based watchdog group said on Monday.

Releasing new budget estimates based on spending mandated by law, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB) also projected that the fiscal 2021 deficit would reach $2.1 trillion in 2021, and average $1.3 trillion through 2025 as the economy recovers from damage caused by Coronavirus-related shutdowns.

The estimates follow the U.S. Treasury’s report on Friday of a $744 billion budget deficit in the six months through March 30, which included minimal impact from the outbreak of the new Coronavirus. Officials said significant budget impacts from spending and reduced revenues would appear in April’s budget results.

The CRFB, a coalition of former U.S. lawmakers, government officials and economists that has advocated for reducing deficits, said U.S. public debt by the Sept. 30 fiscal year-end would exceed 100% of U.S. GDP, from just under 80% prior to the Coronavirus crisis.

“These projections almost certainly underestimate deficits, since they assume no further legislation is enacted to address the crisis and that policymakers stick to current law when it comes to other tax and spending policies,” the group said in a statement.

CRFB’s projections also assume the economy experiences a strong recovery in 2021 and fully returns to its pre-crisis trajectory by 2025.

If that recovery is achieved, public debt would reach 107% of GDP that year, exceeding levels at the end of World War Two. A slower recovery could cause debt to reach 117% of GDP by 2025, the group said.

The record for a fiscal year deficit was $1.41 billion, set in 2009. Deficits exceeding $1 trillion followed for three subsequent years before subsiding as the economy recovered. But the deficit reached $984 billion in 2019 and the Congressional Budget Office had projected a $1.07 trillion deficit for 2020.

The CRFB started with that pre-crisis CBO estimate and added about $2.2 trillion in spending while subtracting $570 billion in revenue due to reduced economic activity.

Federal Debt Clock

Today the Federal Debt is about $32,703,931,284,931.69.

The amount is the gross outstanding debt issued by the United States Department of the Treasury since 1790.

But, it doesn’t include state and local debt.

And, it doesn’t include so-called “agency debt.”

Federal Debt per person is about $97,803.

And, it doesn’t include the so-called unfunded liabilities of entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare.

The Campaign to Repeal the Welfare Reform Act of 1996 is not about giving citizenship rights to non-citizens. It is about upholding the Supreme Law of the Land to abolish bondage, servitude, and slavery. The Reconstruction of America is not yet over. Slavery re-appeared in this Land in a new form and remains hidden or unnoticed. ‘The Clinton Curse’ explains as to why the United States failed on August 22, 1996. The Curse reveals the nature of The Beast that is waiting to overtake this nation.

A New Beginning in August 1996 to Balance the Budget – Recognize reality of The Clinton Curse. An Economic Disaster set in Motion

President Clinton’s New Beginning in 1996.

Economic Oppression of Alien Workers

On August 22, 1996, US President Bill Clinton (Democrat) signed into Law that reintroduced Slavery, Involuntary Servitude, Serfdom and Forced Labor in the pretext of making ‘A New Beginning’.

Welfare Reform Act or Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) is unjust and unfair for it violates Constitutional Law that defends natural rights of all people living in United States. All US taxpayers must be treated as equals for receiving retirement income benefits for which they paid taxes. President Clinton’s action constitutes a transgression of President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation that saved US Non-Citizens or Aliens from the indignity of Slavery.

Exposing The Clinton Curse – Travesty of Emancipation Proclamation is the underlying cause of 1996 to 2023 Economic Disaster

Natural Law vs Man made Law – Clinton’s Slavery Mandate is contempt of over 600,000 Americans who died because of Slavery

US Congress must do the Right thing to Save America from The Clinton Curse, The Economic Disaster of 1996 to 2023.

I ask my readers to review 43-word 13^th Amendment and tell me if those words still govern, rule, and operate the lives of all people, wage earners who perform labor in the US paying taxes.

My readers should not be surprised if I describe the US Congress as “Slave Driver.” The reason for my claim is based on the ‘PRWORA’ enacted by the US Congress in 1996 amending The US Social Security Act of 1935. This legal provision enacted by 104^th US Congress is incorporated as Section 202(y) of the Social Security Act. It mandates that no Retirement Income benefits shall be payable to registered alien (non-citizen) taxpayers in the United States without showing proof of lawful residency as determined by the Attorney General. In my view, the Social Security Administration must not demand a document such as an unexpired Employment Authorization Document (EAD) if an alien worker has attained full retirement age as determined by law.

Social Security Act, Section 202(y) violates the principle enshrined in those 43 words called the 13th Amendment. This 1996 amendment to the Social Security Act is fundamentally flawed for it is unconstitutional. It takes away the property rights (earnings, wages, and retirement income) of individuals who paid Federal, State, Local, Social Security and Medicare Taxes working in this country to attain the full retirement age.

The Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln (Republican) in September 1862 came into effect on January 01, 1863 freeing slaves in all territory still at War with the Union.

These slaves were not citizens of the Land and had no political rights of their own. In Law, Servitude or Slavery refers to the burden imposed upon the property of a person by a specified right another has in its use. Servitude involves labor in which the person who performs labor has no right to his earnings from labor. The Emancipation Proclamation specifically protects, defends, preserves and safeguards rights of aliens or non-citizens residing in the United States.

The amended Social Security Act unfairly gives power to the Social Security Administration to withhold the property (wages, earnings, monthly retirement income benefits) of alien workers who are not convicted felons. In my analysis, the Social Security Act of 1935 amended in 1996 fails to enshrine the guiding principles clearly stated in the US Constitution, the Supreme Law of this Land.

I ask my readers to make the distinction between Social Security Tax and Monthly Retirement Benefit. The first represents tax paid to the government and the second represents earning or wage entitled to a retired person to provide income and security during old age.

The Thirteenth Amendment is just 43 words long. It is so short that, when you read it, you can almost miss the whole significance. You have to stop and remind yourself that 600,000 people died in the Civil War—600,000 died over 43 words. Or to be more precise, they died in a war that decided whether those 43 words would ever be written.

All said and done, President Clinton’s Evil Plan failed to resolve the problem of National Debt. The Repeal PRWORA Movement exposes President Clinton’s contemptuous violation of the Constitutional Principles of equal protection, equal justice and equal treatment under Law.

The US Social Security Administration must either obtain a criminal conviction or designate the Senior Alien workers as SLAVEs to withhold the payment of the monthly retirement income benefits.

President Clinton’s Slavery Law of 1996 tramples upon fundamental freedoms and human dignity entitled to all human beings without any concern for their country of origin or citizenship status.

The US Congress can levy taxes but cannot deprive any person of Life, Liberty and Property without the due process of Law. The United States needs the Blessings of LORD God’s Promise to Balance the Budget and to solve the problem of mounting National Debt.

President Clinton’s tricks and gimmicks will utterly ruin and destroy the Nation for he failed to obey the LORD.

**Whole Dude – Whole Debt: The Clinton Curse: Foreign Debt.**

I ask my readers to make the distinction between Budget Deficit and Foreign Debt. I describe the phrase ‘The Clinton Curse’ from reading the Book of Deuteronomy which specifically mentions the Curse relating to a debt owed to foreign nations.

In my analysis, ‘The Clinton Curse’ demands the Repeal of Bill Clinton’s Slavery Law called PRWORA or The Welfare Reform Act of 1996.

Whole Dude – Whole Debt: The erosion of Christian Values sets in motion a great economic disaster since August 22, 1996: In this graphic, Julie Peasley shows how many one-dollar bills it would take to stack up to the total U.S. debt of $31.4 trillion.

SURPRISE! The budget deficit is soaring! 🚀🚀🚀

Whole Dude – Whole Debt: The Clinton Curse. A Balanced Budget vs Foreign Debt. In fact, the national debt went from $4.4 Trillion at the end of 1993 to almost $5.7 Trillion at the end of 2000, U.S. Treasury data shows, a 28 percent increase in the debt over this time when our nation supposedly was running a balanced budget.

Here’s a headline you might have missed amid the onslaught of news about Julian Assange, William Barr, Nipsey Hussle, and Michael Avenatti:

“US budget deficit running 15% higher than a year ago.”

The story cites this monthly report from the Treasury Department detailing these few eye-popping facts:

1) The budget deficit grew $146.9 million in the month of March alone.
2) The deficit for this fiscal year is now $691 billion — a 15% increase (or roughly $100 billion) from where we were at this point in 2018.
3) Treasury is projecting that the deficit will surge over $1 trillion by the end of the fiscal year in September.

To which, our politicians have responded: 😒

“Nobody cares,” White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney reportedly told a group of Republicans who wondered why President Donald Trump wasn’t going to mention the ever-growing deficit in his State of the Union Speech earlier this year.

That’s a massive change from where Trump, Mulvaney and the rest of the Republican Party were on the dangers of debt and deficits just a few years ago. Here’s Trump talking to Sean Hannity in 2016 about how easily he will balance the federal budget:

“It can be done. … It will take place and it will go relatively quickly. … If you have the right people, like, in the agencies and the various people that do the balancing … you can cut the numbers by two pennies and three pennies and balance a budget quickly and have a stronger and better country.”

So, well, it hasn’t turned out that way. At all.

Here’s the kicker: Trump isn’t likely to pay a price — either within his own party or the broader electorate — for the soaring deficit. Less than 50% of people in a January Pew poll said that lowering the federal deficit should be a top priority of Washington policymakers. That’s down, rapidly, from 72% who said the same earlier this decade.

The Point: Deficits have lost their salience as a political issue. But that doesn’t mean they are going away. And, at some point, our political (and economic) systems will be forced to deal with our growing mountain of debt.

How the U.S. Deficit and Debt Are Different?

**Whole Dude – Whole Debt: From August 22, 1996 to August 22, 2023. The US Economy is on a Slippery Slope**

The U.S. budget deficit was $211 billion in August 2018. That’s much lower than the record high of $1.4 trillion reached in FY 2009.
The U.S. debt exceeded $22 trillion on February 11, 2019. That’s more than triple the $6 trillion debt in 2000.

What is Foreign Debt?

Foreign debt is an outstanding loan or set of loans that one country owes to another country or institutions within that country. Foreign debt also includes obligations to international organizations such as the World Bank, Asian Development Bank or Inter-American Development Bank. Total foreign debt can be a combination of short-term and long-term liabilities. Also known as external debt, these outside obligations can be carried by governments, corporations or private households of a country.
In fact, the national debt went from $4.4 Trillion at the end of 1993 to almost $5.7 Trillion at the end of 2000, U.S. Treasury data shows, a 28 percent increase in the debt over this time when our nation supposedly was running a balanced budget.
The reason for the confusion is that the reported budget deficit/surplus does not take into account new debt being incurred by the Social Security and Medicare Trust Funds and other government loan programs. So, when the budget appeared to have gone down by $69 billion in 1998, the national debt increased by $109 billion, similarly, in 1999, the budget surplus appeared to be $126 billion, the actual national debt rose from just under $5.5 trillion to just over $5.6 trillion.

Whole Dude – Whole Debt: The Point: Deficits have lost their salience as a political issue. But that doesn’t mean they are going away. And, at some point, our political (and economic) systems will be forced to deal with our growing mountain of debt.

Whole Dude – Whole Curse: The Repeal PRWORA Project

In my analysis, the American Supremacy on the world stage is threatened by the COVID-19 pandemic. I want to provide a Biblical perspective on the economic fallout due to the new Coronavirus Disease. America cannot recover its place of pride in the world without healing described in the Bible. America is on a dangerous slippery slope for God has given the people a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see and ears that they should not hear, to this very day since the time the US President Bill Clinton transgressed the LORD’s Commandments.

Romans 11:8

⁸Just as it is written:

“God has given them a spirit of stupor,
Eyes that they should not see
And ears that they should not hear,
To this very day.”

Acts 28:27

²⁷For the hearts of this people have grown dull.
Their ears are hard of hearing,
And their eyes they have closed,
Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.” ’

Matthew 13:15

¹⁵For the hearts of this people have grown dull.
Their ears are hard of hearing,
And their eyes they have closed,
Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.’

Ezekiel 12:2

²“Son of man, you dwell in the midst of a rebellious house, which has eyes to see but does not see, and ears to hear but does not hear; for they are a rebellious house.

Jeremiah 5:21

²¹‘Hear this now, O foolish people,
Without understanding,
Who have eyes and see not,
And who have ears and hear not:

Isaiah 6:10

¹⁰“Make the heart of this people dull,
And their ears heavy,
And shut their eyes;
Lest they see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart,
And return and be healed.”

COVID-19 KNOCKS ON AMERICAN HEGEMONY

By Ashley J. Tellis

May 4, 2020

Ashley J. Tellis holds the Tata Chair for Strategic Affairs and is a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, specializing in international security and U.S. foreign and defense policy with a special focus on Asia and the Indian subcontinent. He is also a counselor at the National Bureau of Asian Research and the research director of the Strategic Asia Program.

After almost two decades of conflicted hesitancy, the United States finally acknowledged that it is involved in a
long-term strategic competition with China. This rivalry, almost by definition, is not merely a wrangle between two major
states. Rather, it involves a struggle for dominance in the international system, even if China as the rising power disavows any such ambition. China’s very ascendancy—if sustained—could over time threaten the U.S. hegemony that has been in place
since the end of World War II. It is this reality of unequal growth—which has nourished China’s expanding influence and
military capabilities—that lies at the root of the evolving rivalry.

Although the term sometimes has unsettling connotations, the United States is a genuine hegemon, understood in the original Greek sense as a leader in the competitive international system. This hegemony derives from the fact that the United States is the world’s single most powerful state. First, it remains the largest economy in real terms, a foundation that underwrites its capacity to project military power globally in ways unmatched by any peers. Second, it possesses a sufficiently effective state that presides over a remarkably productive society. And, third, in partnership with strong allies in North America, Western Europe, East Asia, and Oceania, who share both values and interests, the United States has created an international order that buttresses its primacy materially, institutionally, and ideationally, thereby allowing it to advance diverse interests while economizing on its use of force. Although these foundations have been stressed in recent times, the Covid-19 pandemic now threatens them in deadly ways.

What is certain…is that the U.S. economy will face significant transitions in the aftermath of this pandemic in at least two directions that bear on the future of its national power.

But if the country is in fact now trapped in a period of low productivity growth and persistent weaknesses in aggregate demand…the net result may be a diminished capacity to sustain both the increasing domestic obligations and its extant international interests simultaneously.

While the damage caused to the U.S. economy and the human losses will make the task of preserving U.S. hegemony after the pandemic harder—at a time when most assessments suggest that countries like China are likely to recover faster than the United States—the reputational damage to Washington is just as serious.

Washington must double down on its alliances and partnerships. Only this U.S.-led confederation contains the preponderance of the global product that will durably immunize the liberal international order against any future challenges emanating from China or other rivals.

Preserving American hegemony over the long term
thus must begin with consolidating Washington’s
leadership within the largest single bloc of material power
in order that it may be effective beyond. Ensuring this
outcome requires the United States to take seriously—and
deepen meaningfully—the special geopolitical ties it has
nurtured throughout the postwar period, which would
among other things enable it to better shape the world’s
engagement with China to advance its own interests.
The management of the global pandemic thus far raises
doubts about the United States’ ability to sensibly expand
its power and to manage the evolving rivalry with China
intelligently and in league with the nations that will be
most needed for success. This is unfortunate given this
administration’s otherwise astute recognition of the
return of strategic competition.

Chanakya Niti or the Doctrine of Chanakya, Kautilya, or Vishnu Gupta, the Indian Statesman and Philosopher

Chanakya could be described as the pioneer economist of the world. He is known for his shrewdness, astuteness and diplomacy. He may have been influenced by Zoroastrians who arrived in India from Persia (present day Iran). He became a counsellor and adviser to King Chandragupta (reigned c. 321- c. 297) of the Mauryan Empire in India. King Chandragupta was a contemporary of Alexander the Great. Chanakya was instrumental in helping Chandragupta to overthrow the powerful Nanda dynasty at Pataliputra, Magadha.

Chanakya is praised for his sound political wisdom and knowledge of human nature. Because of him the Mauryan Empire under Chandragupta and later under Ashoka (reigned c. 265- c. 238) became a model of efficient government.

Chanakya wrote a classic treatise on polity, Artha Shastra. Artha means property, economics or material success. It incorporates Principles of Economics and Administration. The book discusses monetary and fiscal policies, welfare, international relations and war strategies. His book Niti Shastra deals with the ideal way of life. The book Chanakya Niti enunciates his policies.

American Foreign Policy – Hegemony:

***Whole Dude – Whole Strategy: Chanakya Niti – A review of the Doomed US foreign policy called Hegemony.***

Dr. Henry Alfred Kissinger who was chief foreign policy adviser and Secretary of State to Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford is described as the architect of American foreign policy which he named as hegemony.

***Whole Dude – Whole Strategy: Chanakya Niti – A review of the US policy of Hegemony. The chief architect of the doomed US policy***

At the end of the cold war, America has assumed the role of World’s only Superpower (Hyperpower) and is willing to dominate the globe in all aspects including that of being the sole military, political, economic and socio-cultural power.

What’s Good for America is Good for the World:

If Chanakya is called upon to evaluate the performance of American foreign policy, he would naturally first look at the impact of American military spending. The total amount of year 2008 supplemental funding for American wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is $ 189.3 Billion and $ 158 Billion is for the Iraq war. The total spending for the Iraq war is $ 617 Billion and would be increasing on a daily basis. The total U.S. casualties in Iraq has reached a grim milestone of 4,000. America fought battles in World War II, Korea and Vietnam and the human toll was very heavy. But, in terms of the costs of waging wars, the present costs are astronomical. Does this military spending boost the national economy and create jobs? The verdict is that the military spending is draining resources from the productive economy. It has a detrimental impact on many sectors of the economy. It has resulted in slow economic growth, less investment, higher trade deficits and fewer jobs. American economy has now slowed down and currently it is the biggest concern of the American public and the concern for economy is greater than the concern for the future course of war in Iraq.

In the United States, the national debt is expanding by about $ 1.4 Billion a day. It means about $ 30,000 in debt for each man, woman, child and infant living in the United States. Currently, the national debt stands at $ 9.2 Trillion. In the fiscal year 2006, United States government spent $ 406 Billion on interest payments to the holders of the National Debt. The interest payments keep compounding, and could in time squeeze out most other government spending. The national debt is projected to grow beyond $ 10 Trillion by January 2009 when the Americans would have chosen the next President to lead their country.

How would America defends its National Security?

**Whole Dude – Whole Strategy: How would America defend its National Security?**

American national security will remain hostage to events on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan. There is no easy way out. The next President of the United States would not be in a position to pull back the troops in spite of the election time rhetoric. The moment America pulls out of Iraq, the power vacuum would be filled up by Iran which would be against American interests in the Middle East. The situation is much worse in Afghanistan. Their economy survives on foreign support and as of today the government in Kabul rules very little of its territory.

America claimed a big success for its foreign policy in the break up of the Republic of Yugoslavia and for creating the State of Kosovo. Kosovo has no economy of its own and is currently dependent upon the American and European troops who spend their money while they are stationed there. American military spending in Europe is projected to increase much more on account of the new missile and radar bases it would have in Poland and Czech Republic.

Whole Dude – Whole Strategy: Chanakya Niti – A review of the US policy of Hegemony. The chief architect of the doomed US policy. The ideals and principles contained in the historical document known as ‘The Declaration of Independence’ could not be translated into reality. In the United States, rulers have become corrupt, they pursued economic, trade, and commerce policies that caused a huge chasm between aspirations and accomplishments of this independent nation. National, and personal indebtedness has grown to unimaginable levels while very few individuals have amassed immense personal wealth. Employment opportunities are lost as the country depends upon products and services that are entirely imported from foreign countries like People’s Republic of China where people have no representative government. United States lacks an informed population while people use education as a tool for economic privilege. There are no laws and institutions to compensate for the diminution of public virtue.

None of these foreign policy initiatives for global dominance could help America to balance its federal budget and control its deficit spending which is the root cause of the problems that its economy is facing now. If American economy suffers, it would definitely cause a ripple effect. I am not surprised to hear that the merchants in the New York city are willing to accept payments in Euros as an acknowledgement of the fact that the U.S. Dollar has become weak and will continue to remain weak in comparison to major global currencies.

American military spending has a detrimental impact on many sectors of the economy. It has led to slow economic growth, less investment, higher trade deficits and fewer jobs. Is that Good for America?

Yes Indeed, Life is Complicated. The complexity of Life involves the basic problem of earning one’s own Daily Bread and Butter.

The Adoration of Whole Angel is in celebration of perfect coming together of Idealism and Naturalism in Art, Food, and Life to shape the Realism of Jennifer Lopez’s appearance as “Queen of the Angels” in a City named Los Angeles, Spanish. Reina de los Angeles, which literally means “Queen of the Angels.” Idealism emphasizes the primacy of Spirit or Consciousness in viewing the World. In an Idealist’s perception, reality of objects resides in the mind’s perception of the objects. Naturalism is the belief that the natural World is all that exists and that there is no supernatural or spiritual creation. Realism represents the theory that individual things exist independently of the mind’s perception of them, In a Realist’s perception, objects exist in themselves apart from the mind’s consciousness of them. The word ‘Reality’ means the fact of or quality of being real or being true to life. In the view of an Idealist, the beauty of Jennifer Lopez simply exists in the eye of the beholder. In the view of a Realist, Jennifer really exists as a beautiful object in the natural world that is perceived. I coined the term Whole Angel, blending the percpetions of Idealist and Realist to describe Jennifer Lopez as a “Natural Queen of the Angels” in a City that really exists with that particular name.

WHOLE TEAM – WHOLE MESSENGER – WHOLE ADORATION: Ms Jennifer Lopez, the gorgeous star, musician, and dancer looked incredible in a plunging Ellie Saab Tulle Gown on Sunday, February 22, 2015 at the 87th Academy Awards function held at Dolby Theatre, Los Angeles.

It is with a sense of great pleasure I announce that Ms. Jennifer Lopez is the Whole Angel of the Whole Team. I claim that in the City of Los Angeles, Ms. Jennifer Lopez had arrived on the Red Carpet at the Dolby Theatre on Sunday, February 22, 2015 to attend the 87th Oscar Academy Awards Function to deliver a ‘Whole Message’ to the Whole Team. For she has successfully delivered a ‘Whole Message’, I named her as a ‘Whole Messenger’. She arrived presenting a most elegant, and naturalistic appearance that drives and motivates the Whole Team which derives inspiration from the philosophy of Idealism. The Whole Team strives to find perfection called Naturalism in Art, Food, and Life. In Jennifer Lopez, the Whole Team has discovered the perfect blend of Whole Idealism, and Whole Naturalism.

The word ‘Angel’ is derived from Greek. ‘Angelos’ which means a ‘Messenger’. Scripture describes ‘Angels’ as supernatural, heavenly beings with bodily form and human appearance. They are of various ranks and endowments but only one Angel called “Michael” is Archangel. In this context, I would like to mention that the ‘Whole Team’ has already designated a Whole Team Member as our ‘Archangel’. Good Angels assist, protect and deliver God’s people. They often guide God’s children. The Scriptures often speak of Angels as Messengers of God. The City of Los Angeles derives its name from Spanish. Reina de los Angeles which literally means “Queen of the Angels.”

The term ‘Angel’ may be used to refer to a person regarded as being as beautiful as an Angel. Ms. Jennifer Lopez established her celebrity status as a musician, dancer and actress. But, Lopez is known to the Whole Team since June 2013 for she is one of the Executive Producers of a Television Family Drama series called “The Fosters.”

Whole Angel – Queen of the Angels – Whole Message:

On Sunday, February 22, 2015, the High Priest of the Whole Team had communicated with two of the Whole Team Members giving directions to perform a high priority task. However, his direct communication had failed and both the Whole Team Members forgot about that important task. Fortunately, Miracles do happen. On that day, one of the Whole Team Members while taking a lunch break, turned on the television while ABC was airing the “Red Carpet Arrivals” at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Just by either unknown Divine Plan or fortunate coincidence, Ms. Jennifer Lopez arrived on the Red Carpet instantly revealing the ‘Message’ to which the High Priest attached a very great importance. The Whole Team Member got immediately connected to the instructions given by the High Priest and could complete the task in time to uplift the Whole Team from a possible failure in work performance. For Jennifer Lopez delivered the ‘Whole Message’ by simply appearing on the television screen, an angelic appearance that inspires the ideals of Whole Naturalism, the Whole Team now regards her as a Whole Angel.

Whole Dude – Whole Enlightenment

Could science and the methods of rational and empirical inquiry help us in knowing the nature and the destiny of humanity? Could we extend scientific methods into every field of inquiry? Could we find truth and reality as an external experience or is it visualized entirely in the realm of intuition and conscience?

Enlightenment – The Age of Reason

Enlightenment is a European intellectual movement of the 17th and 18th centuries in which ideas concerning God, reason, nature and man were synthesized into a world view. The thinkers of the Enlightenment were committed to secular views based on reason or human understanding only, which they hoped would provide a basis for beneficial changes affecting every area of life and thought.

The Enlightenment was based upon a few great fundamental ideas- such as the dedication to reason, the belief in intellectual progress, the confidence in nature as a source of inspiration and value, and the search for tolerance and freedom in political and social institutions. Central to Enlightenment thought were the use and the celebration of reason, the power by which man understands the universe and improves his own condition. The goals of rational man were considered to be knowledge, freedom and happiness. It instigated revolutionary developments in art, philosophy and politics. Sir Issac Newton is considered to be the true father of Enlightenment. He established the basic idea of the authority and autonomy of reason.

The Enlightenment Movement eventually broke up under the impact of new evidence and new insights. Nature, once considered a synonym of reason and visible proof of the existence of God and His benevolence, broke up into something to be studied with scientific objectivity and something to be enjoyed in romantic indulgence. The most significant contribution of the Enlightenment came in the field of social and political philosophy.

Rousseau, Jean-Jacques – The Role of Intuition

Whole Dude – Whole Enlightenment: JEAN-JACQUES, ROUSSEAU(b.JUNE 28, 1712, GENEVA, SWITZERLAND-d. JULY 2, 1778, ERMENONVILLE, FRANCE) FRENCH PHILOSOPHER, POLITICAL THEORIST WHOSE IDEAS INSPIRED THE LEADERS OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION.

JEAN-JACQUES, ROUSSEAU (b.JUNE 28, 1712, GENEVA, SWITZERLAND-d. JULY 2, 1778, ERMENONVILLE, FRANCE) FRENCH PHILOSOPHER, POLITICAL THEORIST WHOSE IDEAS INSPIRED THE LEADERS OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION.

Rousseau is the least academic of modern philosophers but in many ways he is the most influential. His thought marked the end of the Age of Reason and the birth of Romanticism.

Rousseau had a profound impact on people’s way of life. He opened men’s eyes to the beauties of nature and he made liberty an object of almost universal aspiration.

He is credited with having introduced a great discovery about the nature of freedom and he emphasized the primacy of individual liberty. The other Enlightenment thinkers pursued the nature of humankind empirically in physiological and psychological studies or in historical and anthropological researches, whereas Rousseau sought the nature of humans in the wholly private realm of intuition and conscience. He looked inward for the fundamental source of moral obligation. Enlightenment has faith in reason which is understood as abstraction from external experience, Rousseau has emphasized that the inner life as a source of truth.

Rousseau had shared the Enlightenment view that society had perverted natural man, the “noble savage” who lived harmoniously with nature, free from selfishness, want, possessiveness, and jealousy. In his essay, ‘ A Discourse on the Sciences and the Arts ‘(1750), he argued that the history of man’s life on earth has been a history of decay. Man is good by nature but has been corrupted by society and civilization.

One of the first principles of Rousseau’s political philosophy is that politics and morality never be separated. The second important principle is freedom, which the state is created to preserve. The state is a unity and as such expresses the general will. The general will is to secure freedom, equality and justice within the state and in the Social Contract, individual sovereignty is given up to the state in order that these goals might be achieved.

In his political book called ‘ Du Contrat Social ‘(The Social Contract) published in 1762, Rousseau begins with the opening sentence; ” Man was born free, but he is everywhere in chains “. He proposed a society able to cultivate the individual’s moral stature without injury to his freedom. He had expressed freedom and equality of citizens in the idiom of natural and inalienable rights. Rousseau had believed that man has to find his way to his pure nature and to achieve this , man’s duty is to look for his most deep interior feelings and follow them.

Buddha’s Enlightenment

Gautama, at the age of 35, attained the Enlightenment or Awakening. In Buddha’s own recorded words : ” My mind was emancipated…. Ignorance was dispelled, science(knowledge) arose, darkness was dispelled, light arose.”

Science and scientific methods bring us knowledge about life, nature and the universe that we live in. But, intuition provides us with the insight to improve the way we live this life. My Guru, Shankara has spoken a word of caution:

maa kuru dhana jana yauvana garvam

harati nimeshhaat kaalah sarvam

maayaamayamidamakhilam hitvaa

brahmapadam tvam pravisha viditvaa

Could science and the methods of rational and empirical inquiry help us in knowing the nature and the destiny of humanity? Could we extend scientific methods into every field of inquiry? Could we find truth and reality as an external experience or is it visualized entirely in the realm of intuition and conscience?

Whole Dude – Whole Eternal

Tarangini – A Flowing River or Stream – River Ganga or Ganges emerging from the Shivalik Hills, Rishikesh. She symbolizes an immortal stream of thoughts, ideas, and mental conceptions that drench the soils of the Land of Bharat and the minds of its inhabitants.

How can a Man survive after his death?

This is not a discussion about “Afterlife”, or “Hereafter”. This is not a discussion about death, resurrection and then “Everlasting Life.” This is not a discussion about man’s historical legacy, his enduring fame after death, or about his perpetual existence in a Heavenly Mansion after his physical death. This is also not a discussion about transmigration or reincarnation of the human soul.

The Lotus Effect - The Nature of Human Existence — **Whole Dude – Whole Life: Transient Being vs Eternal Being. The Two Facets of the Human Existence. The Two Facets of the Lotus Flower. Mortal vs Everlasting Life.**

The concept of immortality describes deathlessness or the idea of “Lasting forever”. In the material realm, everything that is born must die. The fleeting experience of human existence is often compared to the existence of an air bubble on the surface of a Lotus leaf. The material body cannot enter the immaterial realm. Only a “Tarang” or a ‘Wave’ that is not attached to any physical or material entity, a Wave that is set free and remains in motion, could make the transition and journey into the immortal realm. Does Individuality survive the physical death of the Individual?

**Whole Dude – Whole Eternal: Transient Being vs Eternal Being**

What it is to be a Substance? and What it is to Exist? We need to establish knowledge about the man on a firm basis and the information it provides must be tested for its accuracy and consistency with an external reality. We have to make the fundamental distinction between the living and the non-living matter. The scientific advances of the 19th and 20th centuries reinforced the materialistic position concerning the basic similarity of organic living and inorganic physical matter. The man is viewed as a product of natural evolution and is thought to be subject to the same laws of Physics and Chemistry or mechanistic principles.

We need a methodology to study philosophy and to understand philosophical statements. Logical Positivism, also known as Scientific Empiricism aims to clarify concepts in both everyday and scientific language. It describes analysis of language as the function of philosophy. This analysis of language and of concepts is important to understand questions of belief and ideology which affect what we think we ought to do individually and socially.

**Whole Dude – Whole Eternal: Transient Being vs Eternal Being. The Two Facets of the Human Existence. The Two Facets of the Lotus Flower.Mortal vs Everlasting Life.**

I use this method of ‘Analytic Philosophy’ to analyze the concept of Spiritual Optics, the Spiritual dimension of the Man’s experience of Life in the Natural World. There are two facets of the man’s experience of his own existence. These are, 1. The Identity which keeps changing or varying over the entire lifetime, and 2. The Individuality which continues to be the same without changing under the influence of time. The man can be presented as the constantly changing or varying, transitory, mortal, physical being on the basis of his Identity and on the flip side there is the dimension of unvarying, unchanging, constant, and eternal being defined by his Individuality.

The Experience of Life in the Natural World

**Whole Dude – Whole Life: Transient Being vs Eternal Being. The Two Facets of the Human Existence. The Two Facets of the Lotus Flower.Mortal vs Everlasting Life.**

Botanist Wilhelm Barthlott of the University of Bonn in Germany discovered in 1982 that the lotus leaf has a naturally self-cleaning, water-repellent surface. The secret lies in waxy microstructures and nanostructures that, by their contact angle with water, cause water to bead and roll away just like mercury. Barthlott patented his discovery, calling it the Lotus Effect.

While Barthlott takes credit for his discovery of the waxy surface of the lotus leaf, Indians have known the Lotus, an aquatic plant, for a very long time. Lord Vishnu, the Protector always carries a Lotus flower in his hand, He is generally depicted in images in a lying pose with a lotus springing out of His belly button, His eyes are always compared to the petals of the Lotus flower and His consort Goddess Lakshmi prefers to be seated on top of a Lotus flower. Indians use the Lotus flower for their worship and in Indian Art and Literature, Lotus finds a prominent place and the Lotus is given the official status of the National Flower. Indians are also equally impressed about the waxy nature of the surface of the lotus leaf and they know that the surface causes the water to bead and the drops rollaway with great ease. This phenomenon is very often used to describe the transient nature of human existence.

But, the Lotus is the only flower that is constantly held in the hand of Eternal God.

Whole Dude – Whole Life: Transient Being vs Eternal Being. If Identity described by the Phenotype establishes one face of the Coin, the Individuality describes the second face of the same coin and is established by the Genotype. The same Individual with the same Genotype exists as different Individuals with varying features of Identification.

Whole Dude – Whole Life: Transient Being vs Eternal Being. Identity and Individuality are the two sides of the same Coin. The Phenotype establishes the Identity, and the Genotype establishes the Individuality of a Living Cell or of a Living Organism.

The coins that we use are minted with two different faces and we need to flip the coin to see the face on the opposite side. So also, human existence has its two sides, an eternal entity and at the same time a transient, perishable, temporary, ephemeral, fleeting, and finite entity. I would refer to the following two verses to illustrate this view-point.

THE BHAGAVAD GITA, CHAPTER II, VERSE 13:

“As the embodied soul continually passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth, and then to old age, similarly, the soul also passes into another body at death. The self-realized soul is not bewildered by such a change”.

Since every living entity is an individual soul, each is changing his body at every moment, manifesting sometimes as a child, sometimes as a youth, and sometimes as an old man, the spirit soul however remains the same and does not undergo any change. The individual soul eventually changes the body itself, the soul transmigrates from one body to another body and hence death is viewed as the soul changing bodies from old to new one. According to one’s work in the present life, the living entity experiences enjoyment or suffering with the changing of bodies. This view helps the individual not to lament about death.

SHANKARA’S BHAJA GOVINDAM AND NIRVANA SHATAKAM LYRICS:

nalinīdala-gatajalamatitaralaṃ
tadvajjīvitamatiśaya-chapalam ।
viddhi vyādhyabhimānagrastaṃ
lōkaṃ śōkahataṃ cha samastam ॥ 4 ॥

The life of a man is as uncertain as rain drops trembling on a lotus leaf. Know that the whole world remains a prey to disease, ego and grief.

The ‘ADVAITA’ school of Indian philosophy was founded by the great teacher Shankara who is popularly referred to as Adi Shankaracharya. He composed lyrics known as Bhaja Govindam (Praise Lord Vishnu, the Protector) in which he describes the transient, ephemeral, and fleeting nature of human life and existence.

He compares human life to that of the bead of water drop on the surface of the Lotus leaf. He reminds us to understand that the body’s existence is very temporary and he observes that the entire humanity is suffering due to sickness caused by ignorance which makes people to crave with a sense of attachment and desire to keep their impermanent existence.

Whole Dude – Whole Life: Transient Being vs Eternal Being. The Two Facets of the Human Existence. The Two Facets of the Lotus Flower. Mortal vs Everlasting Life.

The very same Adi Shankaracharya in the lyrics known as Nirvana Shatakam describes the individual entity as an embodied Soul. The Soul is eternal but the physical body is temporary and just like the water drop on the surface of the Lotus leaf, the drop could roll away any moment, and the Soul may change bodies sooner than we wish or desire. There is no point in cultivating a sense of attachment to the body as the Soul is not willing to cling to the physical body.

Man is a created being, exists as an Individual with Individuality, and has living substance constituted by Chemical Elements that are immortal, imperishable, or eternal. However, Man, the physical being with a shape and form is transient as he is born with a plan for the dissolution of its form.
