c'mon, we're here for the catalyst! that's why we organized all such that it is so easy to pirate just about anything. so, is knowledge really different than artistic expression? is the "aha!" of a scientist really any different than the "aha!" of a painter, or sculptor, or musician? and wouldn't most agree here that the total and free exchange of knowledge is vital to our evolution? wouldn't we all presume that david wilcock, given unlimited means, would then "freely" spread the amazing information he is tapped into as far and wide and quickly as possible? at what point is the experience of the truth of music different than the experience of the truth of...well...truth? that is, the scientific expression of truth (which we all likely believe to be our free right to know). music holds truth as surely as the most stringent scientific experiment and the best of all data analysis holds "truth." music is discovery, as surely as science. and like good science, a good song gets the same effect over and over again (provided the experiment is performed properly - ie: the band is able and inspired enough.) it seems an invalid judgment to me, an arbitrary rule, that an illegal (laws created by a non-constitutional entity, thereby themselves "illegal") act of downloading music is automatically bad, as the "karmic hit" would imply. all of 3d existence is the playing out of duality, thus "karma" with its positive and negative - not to be confused with right and wrong or good and bad. frankly, i am surprised that such a flip judgment would have come from the source that it did. so here you go. what if someone got a hold of david's materials, which are for sale, and through some scheme of pirating and marketing genius which completely exceeds david wilcock's abilities to spread the message, manages to get the core of the concepts of the new physics and the potentialities of 2012 across to a critical mass of the populace, creating a millionth-monkey effect which sends incredibly positive ripples throughout the consciousness of the entire planet, bringing about a peaceful and reasonably coherent transfer through the "difficulties" we now face? does he have to take the freakin' hit for it? people! it is not our job to do the accounting. until the veil is fully down for all there is no way and no right to place judgment upon any of our acts. this is at the core of forgiveness and recognizing in lak'ech - a mayan term meaning "i am another yourself." keeping a tally of your sins is a sin. don't worry about it. but - respect and realize what those other "yourselves" are going through. if something is truly inspiring and needs to be shared do not sit on your hands worrying about some petty #*%^#@!!! karma! act from your highest heart and self discretion and convey that which needs conveying. to not act in the enlightened interest of the many, does that take a karmic hit? this counts for music too. music is too close to the heart, spirit, and emotion of the 3d experience. it is part of our truth. honor the musicians. pay for your music. but don't fret the little stuff. really. get over it.
