Sovereign Garden Creations

Welcome everyone to Sovereign Garden Creations. This hall of learning is dedicated to the continuous evolution of consciousness and the methods to achieve more powerful ways of living through a deep understanding of the self and of Natural Law. It is also dedicated to all the great thinkers, past and present, on the shoulders of which I humbly stand. This platform will be building content with the aim of accurately assessing some of the most important, if rarely acknowledged, causal problems that have shaped and are shaping the actual human condition and most importantly will address the multiple solutions that already exist and those to be imagined.

The first solution is a deep understanding of Natural Law. What is Natural Law? Its basic definition is somewhat akin to this; the inherent and binding natural principles that govern the consequences of the behaviors of sentient creatures capable of holistic intelligence. By the fact of being incarnated endows you with certain rights. These rights are a property of your body and mind by the simple fact of your incarnation to this plane of manifested reality. To understand deeply what it is, you must first comprehend deeply what it isn’t. This website will address deeply the concept of Natural Law.

In my experience, the understanding of Natural Law (The ”harm none but take no shit” principle) combined with the application of the Trivium, the mother of all learning and information filtering methods, is essential. It is all the more important in our age of oceans upon oceans of possible information to take into yourself. I believe people still do not grasp the awesome power that the internet provides, especially judging by the way it seems to be used by most. The internet, navigated with a powerful method like the Trivium, is the gateway to the core of what this platform is about; enlightened, autodidactic learning under the deep comprehension of Natural Law First Principles. As Richard Andrew Grove from Tragedy and Hope and the Autonomy Course would say: Learning is the answer, what is the question?

True knowledge implies self-knowledge. Even when you are learning with others, you are learning about yourself. This platform will redirect the focus of what educating oneself is from the clutches of institutionalized, outcome-based schooling we all went through and put it back into the hands of the individual, for a self-reliant individual is the strong building block for powerful interdependent community living. As the Buddha would say: The doors to inner wisdom and knowledge are closed, but the good news is they aren’t locked.

Don’t get me wrong, modern schools perform EXACTLY what there mandates are, producing ”human resources” for systems that considers the individual as a cog, a number, a disposable part to an artificial whole and ultimately, an expendable slave. These educational guidelines are directed towards the atomization of the individual into the mass, it is ”public” education after all. The same fragmented facts and filtered bits of culture which children of an entire generation are supposed to cram in there minds and regurgitate on a piece of paper are not, in my humble opinion, the most conducive way of learning if the purpose of a good education is to create free, autonomous and self-reliant individual. School systems in North America do not promote the most basic teachings of self-reliance and autodidactic learning in the slightest.

Today, most talk of individuality is framed as the eternal, but sterile, debate of the collective good versus the greedy individual, mostly in very apologetic terms towards sacrifices for the collective and demeaning terms towards the ”flawed” individual. Of course every individual has is or her flaws, and ”lone wolf only” egocentric individualism is not a feasible living strategy given our tribal and gregarious natures as human beings. I would however ask this question: If the individual is the root of all that is wrong in society, then how can a group or a society that is composed of these flawed and wrong individuals become magically more righteous and flawless than the individuals themselves? Would it not just compound the wrong and the flawed? Is there not a bigger chance of compromising first principles and morality for ”communal cohesion”? If all this is true, then what, if not the laws of a society, which by the way change every time one crosses a national border, is the guidelines for an individual to act morally in the world?

Of course we are social beings and cannot live by ourselves, but a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Each member of a ”tribe” is at the same time a whole apart and a part of the whole. Ancient concepts such as the Law of Correspondence, which is the self-similarity of all natural processes and phenomena whether taking place in the microcosmic or the macrocosmic and at every level imaginable in between, help us understand that an individual is a drop in the ocean, but also a drop CONTAINING an ocean. Again, know thyself and you will know the Universe. That is why it is my contention that a healthy society is most likely to manifest if the metric to ascertain health is the autonomous capacity and striving of all its ”parts” to be functional, self-reliant and progressing wholes. To be good to anybody else, you first need to be good to yourself. To love yourself, you must not lie, especially to yourself and your closest relational circles, you have to evolve constantly, test what you know, have the courage of true self-respect (to look at the self again), and ACT, not just spectate. In this way, you act in your personal benefit and in the benefit of everybody around you. It’s time people stopped being thrown to one side and the other of societal, cultural and political polarities (democrat vs republican, red vs blue, progressive vs conservative, Black Hawks vs. Maple Leafs, etc.) The cultivation of passion for that type of external drama is a form of escapism from true self growth and self responsibility. If you really want to change your world and your life you have to acknowledge the master/slave dichotomy within yourself and you need to make sacrifices, especially concerning your use of time. Time (along with attention) is in this sense spiritual currency; What do you SPEND time on? How long can you PAY attention? In other words, true magic, being the process of manifesting change in accordance with the will, takes time and effort. So the sacrifices required for any goal start with the foregoing of immediate pleasure in favor of the cultivation of delayed gratification. To sustain the necessary discipline over time, your life goals have to be clear enough for you to act towards it everyday and shapeshifting enough to account for what the world throws at you. This is the art of organizing Chaos. Lastly, but most importantly, those visions mean nothing without being firmly rooted in a deep understanding of Natural Law.

Moral relativism, Sollipsism and Fear, becoming increasingly the norm of the ideological frameworks of governments and cultures in the Western world, are the spiritual forces that, I think, retard the development of individual, communities and the ”Global Village” alike, to borrow Marshall McLuhan’s expression. The thing that people least want to hear is that most of the thoughts they have accepted as true from their parents (even if they mean well) and schooling were at best incomplete and fragmented, at worst completely false. This means that people carry around negative knowledge alongside true knowledge. Negative knowledge is worse than no knowledge because it is incorrect. Through normal conversation, without any ill intentions because it is being done unknowingly, people share at least as much negative information as they do correct knowledge. This leads to a poisoning of the well in arguments. Because most people don’t have an outright agenda of obfuscating truth, they do this unconsciously. Regardless, the fact is that this kind of propagation is a participation in the occultation of the real, and by extension a complicity with encroaching totalitarian slavery. Such is the culturally post-modern wasteland empire in which we live in. More on this as the platform develops.

Another powerful solution to the culturally diluted and emaciated marasmus we live in now in the western world is inspiration through the study of racial and mythological roots. If there is nothing new under the Sun, then powerful ancestors and heroic figures of old are worth studying and imitating in their characteristics. I am not suggesting here that you start living as a medieval Viking, an Egyptian high priest or a Chinese emperor, depending on your genetic background, but to let yourself be inspired by powerful deeds of ancestry and myth, to help form a core base of values for your daily actions. Whatever your racial background, digging deep in your culture and honoring the astronomically improbable fact of your existence through this great chain of being, allowing your physical manifestation on this plane, is a mighty antidote to crass materialism, scientism and ”You only live once” egocentric ideologies. It makes you realize that your and individual that is part of whole and that after death, your deeds will live on in the memories of the ones who have known you, so make them count.

Moral relativism and solipsism are countered to a very large extant by honing one’s skills in the three steps of the Trivium method, namely the Grammar stage of accumulating raw data, the Dialectic or Logic stage where you question the data and reconcile cognitive dissonances between pieces of data, and finally the Rhetoric stage of presenting the information gleaned from the two earlier stages to other people, hence sharing the fruits of your work and inspiring others. Along side the deep comprehension of Natural Law, this will be a major part of the work of this platform.

Freedom under Natural Law can be seen as the freedom=responsibility equation, true power is developing your skills in all spheres of activity simultaneously, whether physically, temporally, mentally, emotionally or spiritually, for yourself and the chosen community around you. To accomplish this, you have to be responsible for your own mind, which hence is conducive to a free mind. Only an individual can think, especially in the sense being able to entertain multiple ideas at the same time without ”becoming” the idea, emphasizing the exceptional importance of the often maligned individual. Then, empowered individuals can come together VOLUNTARILY, with a shared code consented by all and accomplish miraculous things. I hope you find this content instructive, stay encouraged and hungry to learn.
