Month, Day: 169, Names, Knowledge (Independence)
We don't get triples like today, often. We have to have Names in order to found the proper Knowledge. Then, Independence is always necessary.
In short, even the smart get group think now and then.
That begs the question of when do we actually know the truth, for ourselves.
---
Even if we don't, we have much to rely on. The Master's long duration in New England suggests that. Lessons from that gift will be long-time studied.
---
Why use mixes? We'll have some analog of the periodic table as an example (to be described, eventually - what's the hurry?). Then, combinations change, covering an underlying structure that is properly supportive, yet beneath our grasp. Time may be used as an index, but it is not the only one. That key will open a whole bunch of doors, leading to the required 'new' science.

Overcoming ignorance
Month, Day: 169, Names, Perfection (Perfection)
As said, favorite month, after Questions. Dawkins is wrong about religion being where questions/intellect stop. We'll have to go into that further at some point (see Brights).
Questions is part of our basis (Motivational); we'll be getting back to that, too. By the way, we're into the Operational times. The Teleological ended with Perfection. This is a type of Perfection-squared day (see definition of Groups in this post).
---
This day, 08/27/1912: Consider human ignorance and inconsistency. A man who kills another man is punished by execution, but a military genius who kills one hundred thousand of his fellow creatures is immortalized as a hero. One man steals a small sum of money and is imprisoned as a thief. Another pillages a whole country and is honored as a patriot and conqueror. A single falsehood brings reproach and censure, but the wiles of politicians and diplomats excite the admiration and praise of a nation. Consider the ignorance and inconsistency of mankind. How darkened and savage are the instincts of humanity!
---
In New England, the Master's message had many interesting tones, that we'll be looking (motivation for this will be forthcoming, to boot). Personally, I'm looking forward to following the western journey (albeit, 100 years later).

Names and more
Month, Day: 169, Names, Beauty (Justice)
100 years ago, the Master was still up in verdant New England. Coming up is commemorating the jaunt up to Canada and then out west to the country of the big skies and large prominences.
----
After Questions, Names is a favorite month for many reasons. About Questions, think sensors, et al, that are necessary for functioning within an environment. How could anything know states, etc., without queries? Now, Names, within the contexts related to modern dilemmas of science? Ah, let us count the ways.
---
What's in name? The use of ether gives many grief, it seems. The Master said that it wasn't sensible. So, even our artificial sensors would not detect that about which He was talking. Recall, Light is an attribute. One can wonder about the events that will lead up to a more full science and about how long this will take.
The year is 2800; the Manifestation will be appearing soon. Science and engineering has us bound into the spiraling depths of materialism. Unless, of course, the above-mentioned series of events has already taken place. Temporally, we may be talking about the time of the pre-awakening, such as we saw with the 200 years or so prior to the mid-1800s.

New England
Month, Day: 169, Perfection, Perfection (Justice)
A double day, in an important month.
---
This is the 100th anniversary of an unprecedented event. The Master's visit to the U.S. came less than 150 years after its start. Too, given His roles, there are all types of significances. Looking for these can be interesting and instructive.
In terms of time, He spent much more in New York City and Washington DC than any other place. The month out in the west pales when compared with time spent on the east coast. But, the population density was much greater in those eastern realms. The massive buildup on the west coast came a little later. L.A. was still an almost sleepy town, in comparison.
His jaunt up to Montreal was brief, too. There were several visits to Chicago, but the days don't add up that much.
It's nice that the diaries and periodical articles have been organized. Too, we have photos from the time or taken later in an area where the Master visited. So, looking at this collection brings out a lot.
---
Now, take New England and its importance. Well, it was the cradle, more than anywhere else in the U.S., of the new nation that was visited by God's representative a mere 100+ years after its inception. And, New England's history will be retold using insights from the Writings (as will a whole bunch of disciplines, once the framework for doing this has been worked out -- it's mathematical, at its basis -- mathematical from an universal sense).
Calling New England the cradle is not warranted? Well, Virginia did play a major role. As well, we have those intermediate states playing a part. Yet, the influx into New England (in other words, The Great Migration, as titled by the NEHGS), for a period of time and from Northern Europe, principally England, surpassed that of the other areas.
The result of this massive influx put into a place a type of social cauldron from which American characteristics were forged. Some of the current problems can be understood within this context. The proper analysis has not been done, as of yet. The blogger is too old to see fruits; just knowing that the studies have an onset would be sufficient.
The 'illustrious' ones of New England came to see the Master, especially the women. It's interesting that His 'hostess' in New England (Mrs. Agnes Parsons) is of an old American family (early entrants, Virginia, in particular). Looking at her diary reads like a social register, almost.
The beauty of the place was well appreciated. In more than one case, the Master mentioned that His Father's imprisonment kept Him from enjoying such wonderful examples of Creation's bounties. Too, there are little things that pop out. He noted (paraphrase) that certain types of social events can corrupt morals. Too, a visit to one of the early players in the military-industrial complex did not go over well. But, He did tell the Canadians that they needed to attend to their defense, that is, being prepared to defend themselves in the coming war (WWI). The story of allowing oneself to be slapped was used in one of the talks.
Of course, reading these things from a diary, by definition, means that one is getting a personal view (hopefully, truthfully written). So, any description found therein that talked about an observation or even a quote (assuming, heard correctly) would be an interpretation (which we know are private).
---
Aside: Science is built upon mathematics which requires interpretive inputs at several points. That mathematics is a type of 'truth' that is expressively clear is an insidious overlay from 20th century thinking. In some cases, it's a carry over from the efforts at pushing spirit out of human matters (science is an human endeavor, remember?). Hence, science's basis has an interpretative element. We know that is true, in the small (see earlier post). It's true, too, in the grand, extrapolative scheme. Yet, these types of decisional things get covered up. That is, the mainstream takes it route; other possible avenues get reduced to potential cracker-ism if re-discovered. Now, the Writings may not be a 'propositional' source, yet the Writings do carry sufficient information to found a very sold worldview. How will the definition of this come about?
As said above, the blogger is past his prime. He did work this out 45 years ago. It's worth the effort to found the discussion, in spite of the cries of the conventional. Hence, the blog. Too, the cheeky use of audacity.
---
Aside: The blogger has been, during his times, in all of the cities visited by the Master in the U.S. though not always being aware that there had been the Presence. So, it's not like a pilgrimage, but there is a record of this in memory and on the ether. Serendipitous convergence, somewhat.
Remarks:
10/12/2012 -- Mr. Alfred E. Lunt, mentioned in the travel notes, was an early supporter of the Faith.
09/02/2012 -- After the east, the north and west were visited.
08/27/2012 -- Today, we have another type of double day.

Great Ether
Month, Day: 169, Perfection, Splendour (Justice)
As man progresses in pulling secrets out of nature (growing in hubris at the same time) with his models, the concept of 'ether' has become associated with ignorance. Ah, yes. However, we have used it here, a number of times (search on ether). Why? For one, many seem to be apologetic about its use in the Writings. Too, the story has not been fully written, people.
Hopefully, some ideas that need attention will get receive more than the scoffing putdown.
The whole matter came to me, again, as I was reading excerpts from Juliet's recollections about the Master's visit to the U.S. That whole bit was such a blessing which might bear some discussion within the contexts being covered here.
The posting on the Great Ether is of much significance as it mentions the power of the Master (and, introduces a glimmer of an approach to resolving issues that matter). Another post rocks:

Amusingly, while materialists are engaged in making
discoveries concerning the strata of the earth, they are immersed in the very
spiritual power whose potency and influence they deny. They also claim to
forecast coming events.
