The Aztec loved flowers

I offer flowers

I sow flower seeds

I plant flowers

I assemble flowers

I pick flowers

I pick different flowers

I remove flowers

I seek flowers

I offer flowers

I arrange flowers

I thread a flower

I string flowers

I make flowers

I form extending bouquets of flowers

I make a flower necklace, a flower garland, a flower shield

I offer flowers to one

I provide one with flowers

I provide one with a flower necklace

I clothe one in flowers

I cover one in flowers

I love one with flowers

Aztec Song

"We know that a flower is made only of non-flower elements, like sunshine, earth, water, time, and space. Everything in the cosmos comes together to bring about the presence of one flower, and these boundless conditions are what we call "non-flower elements." Compost helps make the flower, and the flower creates more compost. If we meditate, we can see the compost right here and now in the flower. If you are an organic gardener, you know that already.

These are not just words. It is our experience, the fruit of our practice of looking deeply. Looking at anything, we can see the nature of inter being. A self is not possible without non-self elements. Looking deeply at anyone thing, we see the whole cosmos. The one is made of the many. To take care of ourselves, we take care of those around us. Their happiness and stability are our happiness and stability. If we are free of the notions of self and non-self, we will not be afraid of the words self and non-self. If we see the self as our enemy and think that non-self is our savior, we are caught. If we see the non-self as our enemy and think that self is our savior, we are caught. We are trying to push away one thing and embrace another. When we realize that to take care of the self is to take care of non-self, we are free, and we don't have to push away either." - Thich Nhat Hanh

This web site is not a commercial web site and is presented for educational purposes only.

This website defines a new religious ideology to which its author adheres. The author feels that the falsification of reality outside personal experience has created a populace unable to discern propaganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an international corporate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reality on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their religious ideology. This web site marks the founding of the religion aptly named The Truth of the Way of Life - a rational religion based on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a personal relation with God through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality in the hope of curing the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The Truth of the Way of Life are spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to their religious beliefs in America is considered a “hate crime.”

This web site in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the international corporate cartels desire to control the human race. The international corporate cartel already controls the world central banking system, mass media worldwide, the industrial military entertainment complex of America and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the elevation of self-centered behavior and the destruction of global ecosystems. Civilization is based on cooperation. Cooperation does not occur at the point of a gun.

American social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general through mass media by pressing emotional buttons which have been preprogrammed into the population through prior mass media psychological operations. The results have been the destruction of the family and the destruction of social structures that do not adhere to the corrupt international elites vision of a perfect world. Through distraction and coercion the direction of thought of the bulk of the population has been directed toward solutions proposed by the corrupt international elite that further consolidates their power and which further their purposes.
