     If  we are to become aware of our involvement in  the
collusions  which surround us---we must spend quite  times
in solitary meditation,  relaxation, reflection, reflexive
sensitivity and prayer---called by whatever name(s)  leave
us most  comfortable in being true to ourselves, so we can
be true to each other.

     The more intensely and deeply we keep immersed in the
collusive  games of mutual self deception of those  around
us---the more impossible it is for us to detach from their
dishonesty  and  see  clearly  how  they  lack  integrity,
coherence,  health and survival value.    "They"  are both
the  collusive  games  of mutual self  deception  and  the
people  most  intensely around us who play  the  dishonest
games.

     True   prophets  are  people  who  detach  from   the
collusive   games  of  mutual  self  deception  of   their
communities---and   receive  the courage to  speak   truth
to  power;   telling the politically powerful leaders  the
truths which they persistently want to ignore or pervert.

     True  prophets  can  anticipate the  consequences  of
their   communities'   collusive  games  of  mutual   self
deception---because  they  detach from  their   dishonesty
and  see  clearly how  the  games (and   those   who  play
them)   lack integrity,  coherence,  health  and  survival
value.

     The transcendence of   collusive games of mutual self
deception is not a technical accomplishment;  for games of
mutual self deception are dishonest technological games---
pretending  that  through the use of technologies  we  can
"solve"  those dilemmas which we persist in treating as if
they were  technical  "problems"   for which we  can  find
technological "solutions".

                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
