The Secret of a Perfect Life
These two great seekers of the truth of life came to full enlightenment with respect to the divine role of the soul in the affairs of mankind. These two teachings, though came to the world at different times in the history of mankind, spoke about the birth of the soul. These blessed and wonderful teachers realised it was only through knowledge that the soul could be awakened or born again from its eternal sleep. The soul is meek. It is not forceful. Unless sought, it does not interfere or force itself on the will of man. These teachers realised, through personal experiences and of course through divine guidance, that it is the seeking and searching for true knowledge that can bring the soul to life. Through their lives, they showed the world that when the soul of any man is fully awakened and functioning it is indeed a truly heavenly experience. This basic truth and proof is situated in the fact that, The Force, Power and Wisdom that created and hold this world together are Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscience, therefore if any human being has a direct contact with this force, power and wisdom, the experience is indescribable, in short it is ecstatic and indeed heavenly. Fortunately, this is what all the great Sages in history have experienced. It is from this fountain they drew the inspirational messages they gave to the world. This is the heavenly state every human being on planet earth is expected to attain. It is not an exclusive club. It is a club opened to all. But the desire to join or be awakened or be born into this glorious club must come from within each person. This is the desire to search for the truth of life in all its nakedness and glory, that is, free from all religious colouring and dressings; the search for the very bare truth and nothing but the bare truth. This is simpler than you think. The truth of life can be found in every work of TC since every created thing in nature testifies and sings of the glories, powers and praises of TC. As soon as a person desires to learn, desires to know and desires to understand any of the works of TC that person is, surely and truly, on the path of wisdom to a new life. Please, remember, the main subject matter is DESIRE. Since we have acknowledged that TC is Omniscience, it therefore follows that TC shall know the desire of our heart as well. Desire, like everything in life has its good and bad types too. In its good form it could mean to yearn, to want, to long, to hunger, to aspire etc. In its perverted form it could mean to lust, to burn, to envy and could also mean avarice. For the purpose of our discussion, it is the positive desire we shall be focusing on. As soon as we desire to seek fundamental truth of life and not the dressed up rituals and dead fables, the Omnipresent spirit of the Living Lord takes over to guide and to direct this new student of life on the path of a true spiritual personal awakening, development and growth. Religion, Education and Society
They tell their wards, ‘at the end of the day it is the prestige of the certificate acquired that will enable you have that lucrative job or the career of your dream’. It is therefore not uncommon to find Nigerians fraudulently purchasing educational certificates and presenting same in order to secure fantastic job with mouth-watering salaries without any pang of guilt or remorse. This is a complete perversion of the spirit, meaning and letters of education as couched by the founding fathers of The Greek Academy. The ultimate result of this sickening practice is a nation and societies of spiritually dead and soulless human beings who are utterly devoid of the essential truth of life. These blind men and women could be seen in every centre, nook and corner of the national institutions - religion, government, social, economic - setting perverted standards for all and sundry. They run after stupid things, which they have, in their twisted wisdom, defined as success and achievement - money, position of honour (or dishonour?), political power, and above all vanity and vulgarity in all its grisly forms. Their definition of happiness derives from grotesque attention-seeking and praise-grabbing activities in ostentatious living and displays and in gluttony and brutish insatiable greed that is ceaselessly asking for more. They are never satiated despite the volume and the depth of monetary and material properties they have guzzled by robbing, pillaging, murdering and lying. It is purely and simply a spiritual madness and sickness. Fellow countrymen and women, you need healing and you need deliverance too. But I am afraid it cannot be the type being propagated by your dead and deadly spiritual leaders. The whole conceptual frame of the religious teachings is designed to imprison you and to make you the spiritual leader’s bread and butter for life. Religion is economic and it is political. Your spiritual leaders know this. It is only you, the gullible, unthinking and non-reflective followers, who are ignorant of this simple truth. Please, in the name of all that is true, of all that is good and of all that is dignifying, seek knowledge. The search for knowledge is the only Way of Truth. It is not religion. Religion is the dead artefact of a by-gone age when a particular truth was revealed to some particular people for a particular purpose. All the various truths revealed in the ages gone-by were meant for the people of that age. This is the path of nature. Nature is incremental. There is no conflict in all the truths revealed to all those labelled and called Master, Messiah, Prophet, Teacher, Guru or any other obscure appellation. Unfortunately, those ages are long gone. This is a New Age and we must expect a renewed truth for this age also. Note the adjective - renewed - that means the truth shall not be different from all the truth that have come before now but it shall be the ideal, highly relevant and perfectly custom-made truth for this age. TC is ever Alive. TC never sleeps. So the idea that The Lord is not current enough to understand our so-called modern problem should be excised forever from our minds. Therefore, please note, this renewed truth is certainly not rituals of any dead religion. It is not going to be the debased sacrifices being offered in every corner of the land. It can never be the settlements of the gods by bribery (the Nigerian fashion). But, it will simply be the search for the truth of life as taught by nature and every created being in the universe. This is the only truth that can heal and deliver you from both your weak human body and your devilish spiritual leaders. Religion is a great drawback to the path of perfection laid out by the Omniscience Creator for mankind. Religion is an artificially created myth that has done more damage than any other human creation as it causes separation, division, enmity, hatred and jealousy among people and nations of the world. In very extreme cases religion has pursued outright calculated and stupefying hate, cruelty and wicked thoughts, words and deeds on all those holding opposing views on faith and beliefs. The history of religion in our world is a catalogue of holy bloodshed, holy mayhem, holy murder, holy assassination, holy inquisition, holy crusades, holy wars, holy jihads and holy barbarism of all kinds. Religion has done a lot of grievous deeds in the name of God and in the defence of one particular faith against another. The defenders of religion feel that just by putting the sacred word holy in front of any of this callousness, it is very much in order even though all the holy books that were purported to be written or inspired by TC advised all persons against the killing of ones kind. However, religion has continued to enjoy its paramount place of importance in the world because humanity has refused to use the ‘God’-given intellect to unwrap the painted lies from the plain truth. Religion has therefore created a larger than life fear in the minds of followers. It is not uncommon to find that when a member tries to make a conscious effort to reflect on the stupidity of some of the claims of religion he/she is visited with a burst of cold shiver and goose pimples (and I won’t be surprised if you are feeling that way even right now). The psychological impact of religion is very intense because for most people the foundation of their beliefs was laid in their minds at a very tender and impressionable age. A lot of the trifles of religion were laid in infancy and they gradually solidify into the rudder of the adult personality anchoring the person, as it were, on a very shaky and sinking soil. Consequently, the human personality of most Nigerians, that is, the identifiable and distinctive character part of our being that depends wholly on the environment has been bastardised at an early age. Nature supplies the material on which parents and societies at large, must write the codes of their beliefs and culture. A poorly written code produces a deformed and character-less society; character-less in the sense that it is abnormal and does not conform to the ideal spiritual values of TC. Therefore, if the predominant values that emerge in a society are those coupled together by superstition, myth, fears of the wrath of gods and hell-fire, and fear of all other kinds, that society can produce nothing else but a people whose lives are fear-governed, fear-driven, fear-dominated, fear-motivated and fear-controlled. But, if on the contrary, the values of the society are fundamentally rooted in love - the love of TC, the love of all creations, the love of neighbours - and it is principally love-driven, love-dominated, love-motivated, and love-controlled, the thoughts, words and deeds of that society will, definitely, be different. The society will be more productive, more progressive, more united and more peaceful. The field of psychology has taught the world to know that we are indeed a product of our environment. The kind of environment and knowledge nurtured by religion are those that tend to breed hate, division, and narrow-mindedness. This environment kills the natural potential in every person to grow in knowledge and in soul towards the ultimate goal of spiritual perfection. We found that every blind commentator is eager to put down all new ideas as purely utopians and definitely unassailable and therefore practically unnecessary for further consideration. As a result of this spiritual blindness, these commentators have failed to realise that the total design of humanity by TC is a trend towards perfection. The journey of human life as conceived by TC is a divine experiment to fashion a being with a will out of the materials on planet earth and to nurture it and to watch over it as it grows into a spiritual perfect state like all other beings in creation. TC is aware that without humanity attaining this spiritual perfect state, mankind is doomed to a life of suffering, misery and unnecessary hardship. Equally, TC is aware of the make-up of our nature, particularly, our body, and the weakest part of our structure. The one recognised as the bad, sad and incorrigible human nature. This is the human nature that informed the design of the satanic economic system and the oppressive political system of the world. This is the accepted human nature that coloured our judgement from seeing nothing else but war and carnage in the design of solutions to the problems of the world. The one that made us to believe that it is only by cutthroat competitions and not by co-operation that humanity can share the resources of the world. It is in recognition of this shortcoming in the nature of mankind that TC has not desisted from time to time to reveal fundamental truths and divine wisdom to all those who desire to seek and to search for the truth of life. The hopelessness of religion in this direction can be seen in the inability of both the spiritual leaders as well as the gullible followers to follow to the letter the rules and regulations set up by their various organisations. Every religion has a body of laws - Dos and Don’ts - that are recommended to all those who subscribe to the teachings. But in all honesty, how many spiritual leaders or devoted followers are able to keep to the rules of these guidelines? The few members that strain themselves beyond natural limit to keep or to obey all the ‘injunctions’ or ‘commandments/testaments’ often ended up as victims of mental illness. Psychiatrist should be able to reveal, if they care to look closely at the case notes of their patients, that the number who ended up in mental hospital via the route of religion is indeed of a significant proportion when compared to other causative factors. These victims are the real faithful members that desired to follow without questioning or hypocrisy, the rigid inhuman rules ditched out by the sweet-talking and non-practising spiritual leaders. The Pastors/Imams that specialise in the doctrine that teaches ‘Do what I say and not what I do.’ The simple truth of the matter is that religion is contrary to the divine will and truth. Each man is created uniquely different from one to the other both physically and spiritually. Each person is a unique individual with unique anatomical and physiological structures, with unique ability and capability and in total with unique personality. No two persons are same. Even identical twins that come very close in physical similarities still manage to evolve separate unique personalities. It is therefore the result of ignorance and a negation of the law of uniqueness in creation that have led all religions to recommend a general body of guideline or rule to the general assembly of the faithful. We are constructed to see, hear, feel, think, talk and act differently. Therefore our spiritual self, the soul of man, even though it comes straight from TC, is still similarly designed differently from one person to the other. Its response to the day-to-day problem of each individual must therefore be custom-made for each person. However, since the only principal motivation for every action of the soul is love, that is why when a person becomes fully awakened or has been born again in the spirit of truth, the born again or the awakened person would henceforth base all the actions of his/her life solely and squarely on nothing else but love. And when thoughts, words and actions are rooted in love, a person cannot help but to do the right for all creations that are the handiwork of TC. The desire to do the right by and for his/her neighbours, his/her communities, his/her ethnic or tribal group, his/her nation and finally for every member of the human/living communities regardless of the geographical location, racial or colour differences, sexual orientation or any differences for that matter becomes naturally easy and effortlessly attainable. Summary and Conclusion
According to the quotation from James Lovelock at the cover-page of this essay, important sensible theories about earth [life] are not taught in schools, they came by intuition. This is to say sensible and earth-shaking theories are the gift of TC to mankind. In this discuss, we have stated some obvious facts and we have equally propounded some hypothesis for the healing and deliverance of humanity from its wretched existence. The next step as in all sciences is for interested persons to test the efficacy of this hypothesis. The fundamental principle on which the design of this work is framed is the total freedom of every Nigerian from the shenanigans of religious bigotry, idolatry and share stupidity. The freedom is intended for both the oppressed and the oppressor. It might surprise you that the oppressor also needs deliverance and salvation. This is true. The oppressor and the oppressed are both saddled with the same seed of ignorance and fear. Both are servants of some useless gods. Every human race needs deliverance from the stupid gods we serve and worship. These gods which are made by the hands of man, especially the god of mammon, are the ones dictating the pace and direction of our pathetic lives. The path on which these human creations are leading humanity is not towards the path of freedom and happiness but it is towards eventual destruction and eternal damnation. However, TC, The Greatest Designer of the whole wide world and The Greatest Programmer cannot allow its work to go to waste. I love the sound of that last accolade. It is modern, isn’t it? Let us use modern concepts for Our Creator. Our Creator has the power and the wisdom to re-write the chips of our mind or to write a new software programme entirely for our world. If Billy Gates, a human being, can single-handedly dominate the computer industry and every computer PC in the world by share knowledge of software programming, why would anybody think that The Creator of Billy Gates (Billy-Gatemaker) cannot rewrite, reconstruct and redesign the heinous human personality. This is why from time memorial TC has physically and spiritually intervened in the affairs of mankind. The method of intervention has always been the same and this has never changed. It is principally to raise up men/women of our own kind - not saints or angels without any wrongdoing but sinful men/women with flesh and blood and most importantly with experience of life both in the fast and slow lanes - from every inconceivable corner of the earth to carry messages of deliverance and salvation that can rescue, if adhered to, humanity away from the path of perils and the unpalatable consequences of our collective global ignorance and folly. These men and women have again been raised up and they are hidden from the world in the time being. They have been positioned all across the planet earth waiting for the great call to start the harvest of separating the wheat (truth) away from the chaffs (lies). Before then, some of these men and women shall be given the task of warning and advising their fellow travellers to reconsider their foolish ways and the accursed human systems - religions, economics, politics, societies of inequalities (royalty and slavery) etc. - and their silly and puerile civilisations. This is the civilisation that has turned our world up side down because it promotes the worst of our nature as the best. It turns vices into virtues. It teaches us that, though it is morally right but it is stupid to be kind, to be merciful or to be honest or truthful at all times without considering the circumstance. This civilization encourages us that it is brilliant, cool and smart to be vicious, to be ruthless, to be cunning and to be dishonest if it puts the meal on the family table or enhances national interest. These are all the elements adjudged necessary for a brilliant career in business and politics. Therefore, these men and women - the friends of TC - who, despite the confidence enthusiastically displayed by their contemporaries in the unshakeable foundation of our world systems, have had their eyes opened by TC to see the dirt and cesspool in which humanity is swimming. They are now ready to sing the song of deliverance to this wretched world without fear or favour. If you are one of them The Spirit of Truth will wake you up at the appointed time. And the message of this book will kindle the seed of love already in you to start the process of germination and growth. So far, the process of intervention as designed by TC has been moving incrementally fine as planned. Each messenger sent to the world has declared a part about the love, glory, power and greatness of TC. Each has delivered a very small part of the grand jigsaw puzzle of the truth of life to his/her generation. It is the duty of the next generation to put together the previous segments of the puzzle in order to understand the whole picture. But instead, each generation has behaved as if it has nothing to do with the past or as if the past has nothing to do with the reality of life and beliefs they hold on to dogmatically. How shallow can humanity be? This booklet, like Nigeria on Fire written in January by the same writer, is a revelation of truth to this generation. The truth in this work is being made known specifically first to the people of Nigeria before any people else because Nigeria has a special role to play in the grand global plan of TC. This booklet is therefore an attempt to reconcile Nigerians with the truth of the past, the visions of the past and the errors of the past. It is also intended to reveal the problems of the moment, the lies and hypocrisy of today and the nature of the stupid gods along with their miserable earthlings who pose as servants of truth but are actually in the business of paying obeisance to the satanic wishes of these gods. Furthermore and more importantly, it is to open the eyes, the ears and the minds of all humanity to the promises declared in the past on the future of things that will come and which are about to be fulfilled. This is the promise TC made to every true-and-pure-in-heart prophet and sage about the establishment of the Kingdom of God on earth. Our Creator never does anything until the plans have been first revealed to the prophets, teachers, sages, seekers etc. Those men and women whose receptors have been cleaned properly by the aid of knowledge, whose receptors are functioning well and have got them tuned to the frequency of TC. This is what is called divine love and divine democracy. Our Creator has no confidential matter or secret files that should be hidden from the people like the satanic governments of this world. The government of TC is an open administration. The crux of the discussion of this booklet is to show you that the positive desire of your mind to seek and to search for the true knowledge of the meaning of life is the only way to your deliverance and happiness. Since there are many kinds and branches of knowledge in this world, unless TC guides you, surely, you will not know what to look for and, definitely, you will get lost. That is why this writer keeps emphasising that the main prerequisite qualification needed for acceptance into the college of life science is the desire of your mind. It is the desire of your mind that is of interest to TC and as soon as the desire of your mind is strong enough and sincere enough without any hidden selfish agenda, The Omnipresent Creator will take over your personal tutoring. We, who are alive today, are the blessed generation because our age has inherited the precious divine gift of knowledge and skill of writing and printing. We are the custodians of a host of valuable materials, which have painstakingly documented the history of humanity from the recorded time. These documents have been prepared, stored and are readily available for our education and enlightenment. We, therefore, have no cause to spend a lifetime to observe afresh and to collate raw data from nature. We should be able to move the boundary of knowledge forward by building on the inherited wealthy resource of the past. In every sitting room, in every library and on the Internet every person can access the wonderful world of books and enjoy an intellectual and spiritual journey of redemption and deliverance. Remember what we said earlier about seeking knowledge as the only way to build and equip the mind to make it ready to energise the soul. Remember, once again, an empty mind is of no use to the soul. Our mind is the bridge that links the body to the soul. Again, remember our soul is the receptor or the sub-station transmitter for receiving messages from TC. Therefore, it follows that the more a person search and accumulate knowledge under the positive desire, the more the mind is strengthened like a charged battery to energise the soul into active service. With the soul on fire and alive, the various messages of TC flowing all around planet earth but which, before, could not register on your soul will now be captured and transmitted to the mind for your personal use. By now, through the knowledge of science, every intelligent person knows that there are wonderful sound and pictures floating around us unheard and unseen. But with the aid of the simple technology of radio and television, this beautiful sounds and pictures can be captured and brought to our human frequency. The simple truth is that these sounds and pictures are there already around us but we didn’t perceive them because we have no transmitter within our body to receive the sensations at the frequency they are been transmitted. But with a flick of switch on the radio or jukebox, our popular Disc Jockey (D.J) or pop idol can be heard loud and clear. Dear seeker of the truth of life, this is the experiment this writer is inviting you to perform. The Greatest D.J has been singing lovely and blessed sound all these ages but nobody is receiving on planet earth because the battery (the mind) for energising our receptors (soul) are dead and empty. The message of this book is designed to heal your diseased soul. The process of healing planned by TC shall not use the type of soft psychology or degrading marketing strategies, which are common with the American Television Evangelists (the circus/comedy preachers), where human emotions are cheaply and blatantly manipulated and exploited for lucre. In fact the process of healing designed by TC for you and me is a Do It Yourself (DIY) method. The goal of this divine experiment is to vacuum clean your receptor (your soul) and to prepare it ready to receive necessary uplifting healing messages that have been custom-made for you by TC. Again, remember, the procedure depends on the desire of your mind. You must desire to seek, to search and to know the truth of life. As soon as this desire is strong enough and genuine enough, The Spirit of Truth from The Living Creator will lead and guide you on the necessary steps designed specially and specifically for you. You don’t have to copy your neighbour or your friend; each training programme has been individually Taylor-designed and packaged specially for you by your personal tutor - The Spirit of Truth. In conclusion, there are two messages this writer will like to deliver to the people of Nigeria with respect to the havoc religion has caused in/to the body polity. First, to the religious leaders, this writer is advising every one of you to come down from your high moral (or immoral?) pulpit or minaret and to apologise to the congregation of innocents in your lucrative and profitable vineyard. Tell them in all humility that you are very sorry for misleading them all these years. Tell the people about the shameful truth of your circumstances: that you do not care at all about their souls but that your interest has always been in the health and economic well-being of their bank accounts, pockets and wallets; that your excursion into religion was nothing but a brilliant career move away from poverty and want; that you are an incorrigible deceit, liar and a disgrace to the divine grace of TC; and that you have neither knowledge nor comprehension about the meaning of the truth of life but that you have been pandering untruths and deceits in order to bind the congregation of the innocents to your service of milking them for your personal sustenance. Mr and Mrs religious leaders, this is a serious matter and unless you confess your sinful and shameful situation openly to the people you are doomed forever. This is not a joke at all. It is a critical matter between a choice of either an eternal life or an eternal death. The situation of all those who go by the title of spiritual leaders in Nigeria is a dire straight because your group wantonly set out from the beginning to deceive and to rob the innocents of their meagre means of sustenance. You were so pre-occupied with the satisfaction of your bellies that you were prepared to lead the people into spiritual wilderness and bondage. By your life styles you promoted the belief among the people that TC is dead and if not dead then is blind and if not blind then must have gone to sleep. And since TC, because of its abundance patience and slowness to anger, never visited the sins of your fathers and your forefathers with any visible punishment, you and all your groups indeed believe it is all a joke or a game of wit. You therefore colluded to set up magnificent religious organisations purposely to deceive and to collect sacrifices from the people in the name of TC that you don’t even know or believe in. These are sacrilegious acts. Please repent. I say repent and I repeat again, repent. Please call, with all your heart/mind, on The Creator of all life to have mercy on you. There is nothing more to say to you. Secondly, to the multitude of the people of Nigeria who through share carelessness have submitted their liberty and eternal freedom to the courts of the fake spiritual and religious leaders, you are been invited to step out of your bondage. TC of the universe is offering you without any price your freedom once again. Just step forward in faith and in spirit to collect it. It is by the Grace and Love of the Almighty you were created and the TC that created you knows about your spiritual frailty and human weaknesses. Your error of commission whereby you placed all your trust on the so-called spiritual leaders is understood as part of your nature that is eager to trust all authorities like a baby. That is why Yeshua in his sermon on the mount said to the meek, ‘Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.’ The Lord knows, sees and understands your faithfulness. You have no cause to fear your Creator. TC loves you and is calling you once again to allow the desire of your mind to grow towards the need to seek and to search for the truth of life. To the various religious groups who hold to some fictitious interpretation of TC, such as God manifesting itself in three persons only - the Holy Trinity doctrine - or that God has only 99 names, please let the words of this message speak to you. The Lord, The Creator of the whole known universe is definitely more than three persons and has very much more than 99 identities. TC is manifested ad infinitum (It looks to me more of a Holy Infinity than Holy Trinity!). Similarly, the names, accolade or appellations of TC are indeed uncountable. If names are derived mostly by the physical attributes of a person or by the nature of work associated with a person, like Mr Shoemaker or Mr Smith that works with shoes or iron respectively, then to list all the known physical attributes and works of TC and call TC after them like, The Creator of man (Manmaker) The Creator of woman (Womanmaker), The Creator of Insects (Insectmaker), The Creator of Billy Gates (Billy-Gatemaker) etc., how many names would TC have? Think about it all you seekers of truth. Don’t be biased or prejudiced. Take the veil and coloured sunshade of religion off your eyes then you can see clearly the truth of life. Unless you can do this, the negative emotions running through your mind right now against this writer for ‘slighting’ your faith and belief may run too deep and may lead you to think evil as a defender of faith again. Our Creator is capable of defending itself. Leave the fight of right or wrong to TC, The only True and Just One. The task ahead of you, both the contrite spiritual leaders and the ever-trusting followers is the need and the desire to seek and to search for the truth of life as taught by every creation in nature. You need not rely on any deceitful earthly teacher anymore. The Spirit of Truth who is more than ever ready to teach all mankind that yearns and hungers after the truth of life is here with us in peace, power and glory more than at any time in the history of mankind. Remember, the Omnipotent Creator can see all the secrets of your heart/mind, so there is no need to deceive yourself or anybody else for that matter. Therefore it is the desire of your heart/mind that is important at this moment. Do you want to be free from all inconceivable bondages in your life? Do you want to renew your eternal contact and communication with The Creator of all Life? Do you want to partake in the joy and abundant blessings of The Kingdom of ‘God’ in Nigeria? Do you really want to experience the heavenly bliss and pleasures on planet earth? If the answer is Yes, then all you need to do is to allow the seed of the desire to be awakened or the desire to be born again in spirit and in truth to germinate in your mind and to become the over-riding concern of your life from today. Please let me sound the warning for the last time, you cannot attain any of those things mentioned above by just share effort and grit determination. Your failures in the past to do those things, which you know were right and proper, is a proof that your efforts are never going to be good enough. You need help. But do not put your faith on any living or dead human being again. The Almighty Creator of the Universe is ever alive and is visiting the planet earth at this period in time. May the Lord, The Creator of the Universe bless and nourish the message of this book for the freedom and deliverance of our souls from the weakness and foolishness of our human nature, from now on and forever more.
