It’s very easy to buy the UK Our resources sold off by Thatcher, London laundromat washes dirty money, lawyers represent dodgy foreign clients, housing market sells to foreign millionaires, Tories embedded Fujitsu, Palantir etc who rob us blind/use our data against us. Farage will do far, far worse

“The Sadhaka… loosens himself from the bonds of family, caste, and society. Finally he becomes a denizen of smasana, cemetery. He is now fully initiated into the secrets of Mahayoga.

When he receives the mahapurnadiksabhiseka he carries out his own mortuary rites and is then dead to society. Seated in one spot, he exists in perpetual samadhi.

The Mahasakti, Devi, or Kali has taken possession of his heart, which has become a cemetery in which all passions and inclinations have been burned. He becomes a Paramahamsa, one who is freed from life.” P.H. Pott Yoga and Yantra

popularresistance.orgCivil Disobedience Of Copyright Keeps Science Going - PopularResistance.OrgCreating and sharing knowledge are defining traits of humankind, yet copyright law has grown so restrictive that it can require acts of civil disobedience to ensure that students and scholars have the books they need and to preserve swaths of culture from being lost forever. Reputable research generally follows a familiar pattern: Scientific articles are written by scholars based on their research—often with public funding. Those articles are then peer-reviewed by other scholars in their fields and revisions are made according to those comments.
