The Wizard of Oz

We’re off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz. Should we be?

In Oz, everyone believes the Wizard is all powerful and runs everything in the land. They follow the instructions of the Wizard, even when the Wizard’s requests seem rather unreasonable. No one questions the Wizard, because they have been fooled into believing that he controls their lives. Only one was aware and was not hypnotized by the manipulation of the Wizard; guess who?

The dog. That’s right folks, it was only the dog who was aware and could clearly see the man behind the curtain pretending to be all powerful. The truth was, he was a powerless, wrinkled up old man who had nothing but his bells, whistles and lies.

America is Oz. Those who run government and media are the perceived Wizard. The ones who can see the man behind the curtain, are the ones who everyone ignores and perceives as ignorant and incapable of seeing truth or communicating reality. Sadly, the truly aware are the ones pulled around on a leash and never asked for direction. Yet, they are the only ones who can see the man behind the curtain, and are fully aware of how powerless he truly is. If only everyone could see that he exists back there–covered through deception–things would be much different. Once he was discovered, the jig was up. He was outnumbered and could no longer continue the charade, lest he be flogged by the majority.

Folks, there is a man behind the curtain. There is no all powerful Wizard, nor an all powerful government. And the sooner the gentle folks of this modern Oz realize that, the better off they will be, and the sooner they can take back their lives.

Just click your heels three times and say it with me, there is no Wizard, there is no Wizard, there is no Wizard. There is only a deceptive man behind the curtain who wants to control your every move.

When we are firmly established
in nonviolence, all beings around us cease to feel hostility.
When we are firmly established
in truthfulness, action accomplishes its desired end.
When we are firmly established
in integrity, all riches present themselves freely.
When we are firmly established
in chastity, subtle potency
is generated.
When we are established
in nonattachment, the nature
and purpose of existence
is understood.

-The Yoga Sutras
of Patanjali 2: 35-39
