All identity, beyond what is true of every single one of us, is ego-identity. Identity separates and divides us, one from the other. Identifying as “this” or “that”, as distinct and separate, special, different… causes us to neglect the beauty of our relatedness, our commonality, our unity, our love. Our truth.
Identity-politics is the contemporary means by which an increasingly deracinated ‘western establishment’ maintains its grip on power, by elevating that which separates and divides to a central policy of ‘governance by grievance’, pitting entitled ego against entitled ego, even as our deeper connectedness, our species wide state of interdependence, atrophies through our dependencies on “the state”, and the economic insanity of exploitative consumption.
There is only one “identity” which we all share, and of which there can be no doubt: that we are each Living Men and Living Women, under God/the Creator/the Everloving Divine Creator of All that Is (or however you conceive existence).
The ‘state’, as such, will use any means at its disposal to try to control the people and subvert our will, to maintain its increasingly tenuous grip on centralised power structures. The harder we push back, in whatever manner suits, the quicker it will topple.
To be replaced by what, is a reasonable question to ask which I’ll come back to shorty.
As things stand at the moment (nothing is permanent), it is at the point of intersection between “the state” and the individual that our opportunities for (preferably) mass non-violent non-cooperation arise.
When they come storming into University campuses to arrest peaceful protesters, or when they deem our words to be criminal “hate-speach” and try to cancel us, or when they attempt to fine us for chewing gum whilst driving (or whatever their latest means to keep us down, impoverished, stressed, wrong-footed, and to grab our cash) with the right attitude we may use that moment to refute the state’s claim of jurisdiction (their claim to determine what is the so-called “law” you must abide by). - By now it should be obvious that all of the government's of western nations have been captured by the Zionist and Jewish Lobbies, and huge corporate and military interests, and have gone rogue. They do not represent the will of the people. In fact they do all that they can do to modify and suppress that will. Moreover, our governments and the individuals who occupy seats of power within them show themselves to be increasingly criminal, self-serving megalomaniacs, devoid of conscience and unconcerned with truthfulness. They are the willing servants of corporate and Zionist interests, determined to upend our cultural norms for their own parasitic gain.
“I am the Living Woman called by the utterance ‘kali prajita”.
I do not recognise you.
I do not recognise or accept your jurisdiction.
And I grant you no authority over me.”
So goes my response to any state official seeking to enforce the will of an obviously criminally insane entity upon me. In the first place, it is my wish to cause the functionary pause for thought. - Where does his or her claim of jurisdiction over my conduct arise in the first place?
The way I see it, any individual who seriously expects me to comply with the demands of such a monstrous entity may be overdue for a long period of critical self-examination. Of course, I don’t really expect the ‘arresting officer’, for example, to do anything other than follow, robot-like, the orders of his ideological masters. But as long as I have caused no loss, no harm and commited no fraud against any other Living Man, Woman or Child, then I’m more than happy to challenge the jurisdiction of the state, publically, all the way up the chain of command, come what may, until I encounter someone capable of understanding that their supposed jurisdiction is illegitimate.
The entire edifice of “Western Civilisation”, in all of its malfeasance, corruption, filth and greed is laid bare, even to the most indoctrinated, by it's response to the bloody horrific genocide taking place in Gaza. For those of us who find ourselves dwelling within realms the Satan-like western “states” claim to rule, we have a choice: we can either continue to bow and scrape, and pay, and actively support with so much of our life-energy, this obviously monstrous entity, or we can stop, we can deny its unfounded claim of jurisdiction.
These days the “state” has unequivocally breached whatever “social contract” it once laid clam to. And those individuals that fill it's ranks and occupy it's high places have no standing against any Person of Conscience.
“I am the Living Woman” is included in my statement because there can be no interloper between a Living Man or Woman and the Divine Creator, God. Thereby, Natural Law under God, has standing over and above any claim of jurisdiction the state may seek to impose. I am governed by my conscience, in accordance with Natural Law under none but God. That same would continue to be true even if stated from a jail cell!
“[C]alled by the utterance ‘kali prajita’ is relevant because the state has already attached a “legal fiction” to the “name” as recorded in its registry of births, deaths, marriages, etc, which it then uses to create joinder between the individual Man or Woman and that legal fiction over which it claims jurisduction. - In my case, the name registered at my birth, Karen Lucas, has been joined/linked to my current calling, Kali Prajita, via legal shenanigans, and because I have no desire to hide who I am from anyone. I do not claim the “name” which the state claims jurisdiction over, but simply state the utterance by which they may call me.
(Interestingly, from my perspective, “Kali” has its own energy - that if the Hindu Goddess, Kali - destroyer of demons/ego, whilst “Prajita” is a Sanskrit word meaning “unstoppable” or “driven”. “Karen Lucas, on the other hand, translates as “pure light”. Either calling us fine by me… but let the caller be aware.)
I think the rest of my statement is self explanatory. It is a statement of fact, not intended as some magic elixia, but to begin a much needed conversation. - Let the state prove its jurisdiction, it's right to enforce its will upon me under cover of ‘law’. I’m happy to continue my assertions of personal sovereignty all the way up the chain of their legal system, come what may. I will never roll over for the evil and corrupt rulers of ‘western civilisation’ - or what little remains of it!
Because I am governed by my own conscience, under none but God (the Everloving Divine Creator of the All of Everything), and because my nature and my actions are peaceful, non-violent and cause no harm or loss to any other Living Man, Woman or Child, the state has no business imposing it's notions of criminality upon me. - Should the state make ‘laws’ compelling me to live in accordance with my nature, then it's jurisdiction is pointless and mute. Should it attempt to force me to act against my nature then its jurisdiction is void under Natural Law.

To return to that crucial question of what comes next: next after the fall of the West; after the fall of Zionism; after the Civil Wars; after the Global Thermonuclear War; after the emergence of a ‘Multipolar’ World Order; after whatever it is that brings this shit-show to an end… what then?
I guess there are as many opinions on that as there are minds contemplating it. For me the most crucial requirement in determining what happens and how we respond to it comes down to one essential imperative: Know Yourself!
To know yourself - to know where your ego ends and you begin, is to become master of yourself, to become an adult, responsible for your own welfare, responsive to your own needs as well as those of your family, friends, community.
Ultimately it’s about localisation - from the individual, to the family, to the community; localisation of economic (food in the table) life through recognition of oneself and ones interdependencies. - Mutual support for mutual benefit, spiritual and material enrichment (which has nothing to do with wealth) at the local level, because that is all any one of us can effect.
I wrote a little something on breaking our dependence on the “economy-stupid” a few weeks ago, which may help to inspire further thinking in that direction, particularly for those stuck in urban environments:
Leftist or Rightist? Is That The Best We Can Do?
I subscribe to the notions of national sovereignty and individual autonomy, yet I also recognise the broader family connections of my humankind. I champion self-reliance and deplore the dependencies cultivated by the welfare state, yet I support supporting those in need as well as free education for all.
More recently I wrote a post on ways of breaking free of the corrupt, criminal parasite that claims rulership over us:
Break Free and Starve the Beast!
What would I know of your constant, daily struggle? - Me, perched here on my mountain, without rent or bills to pay, with my energy provided by the sun, without obligations to the state that indentures and enslaves you. Me, without debt or bank account. Me, who owns nothing, and so can be deprived of nothing?
I hope that you find inspiration and food for thought in these pieces.
As to what actually comes next, none of us can possibly know. The only thing I know for sure is, regardless of who you are…
I am the living woman called by the utterance “kali prajita”.
I do not recognise you (unless I do! lol).
I do not recognise or accept your jurisdiction.
And I grant you no authority over me.
Thank you for reading!
This piece you wrote is magnificent. The USA is about separation. Even the Mega-Churches… the filthy rich pastor separate from the parishioners and their own soul. Yes the parishioners are drunk and hypnotized by the pastor. The people of the USA drunk on their anger and racism and Christian hypocrisy. Identity … they never developed a healthy identity so take on the first charismatic person as their god. We are pitiable.
