“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.”
The New Preamble to the Corporate States of America
“We the executives of America’s corporations, in order to form a more impregnable conglomerate and indivisible merger, establish privilege, insure domestic equity, provide for our common defense, get everyone off welfare, and bless our security in perpetuity for ourselves and our posterity, do declare and enact this Charter for the Corporate States of America.

The Arab Spring and the further Emergence of the Mature Soul Era
Since February, we’ve seen one Dictator in the Arab world after another fall because of the collective actions of citizens on the ground. Most of those actions have been bloody. Regimes of the powerful do not give over power easily. Continue reading »
Value and Contribution
Over the last several months, much of my mental process (such as it is 🙂 ) has been focused on how we think about value and worth and as an outgrowth how those assumptions have come to form our dominant economic systems. Continue reading »
My Flag, My Constitution!
A Progressive Liberal Reclaiming the Flag and the Constitution!
My heart is glad to be an American. On this day I am grateful for and celebrate this land, this nation, our Constitution, free enterprise, but not financial and corporate capitalism. Today, I reassert that these are the values that make America great, not Walmart, not nukes, nor financial dominance. I claim the American Flag for Liberal values!

Concordance with Self
by Stephen J. Cocconi © 2004- 2011
“What do you turn on, when you turn on?”- Timothy Leary
Eighteen years after the Harmonic Convergence, the Harmonic Concordance is here to beckon a more personal review of how the new paradigm is to be manifest, through you, individually. The portal that bridges the Physical Plane to the Causal Plane (the place where the soul can manifest desire and return power to the personality) is more widely open than at many points of the past or in the future for some decades to come. With the portal open, individual scripts are up for review and rewriting. For some, this process has been consciously and deliberately undertaken. For others, the process goes on beneath the surface or in vague contemplations pervading the backdrop of their lives. In either case, the Essence is submitting to its I AM Self, requests for personal power and healing as to make the philosophical and behavioral alterations necessary for putting oneself in alignment with the precepts of their chosen paradigm. This process will look different for each person. Continue reading »
“When the legend sells better than the truth, print the legend.”
It is an interesting phenomenon to observe the genesis of a new species of words. That’s right, words; words that singularly capture an idea or construct that would otherwise be a phrase or murky “feeling.” As if crawling out of the intellectual primordial ooze, a whole phylum of novel and derived utterances emerged into the discourse of language during my generation.

Keeping Count of what counts
Here is the World Clock. Numbers are ideas that we hold in reverence. They imply tangible assessment and reveal our accountability.

A World Wide Human Vision-Mission Statement
We will die; individually, at the end of our life span; as a species, at the intersection of whatever set of circumstances befall us, whether they be long term decline or short term cataclysm. For me, the fact that all things expire is the single indisputable truth of all existence – a statistic, that to the best of historic and scientific knowledge, and religious article of faith, registers a full 100% compliance to the reality of this statement. In light of this inevitable truth comes the less certain question: When will our demise occur? Continue reading »
