AI's Self-admitted Relationship to Truth
How AI hinted to me that one needs to be able to provide a critique and 'be an expert' in one's own subject before using it safely
This is a fundamental flaw in AI text generation. It can act as an echo chamber for established institutional biases rather than an objective seeker of truth. It requires active human intervention, like your critique, to force the model to bypass the superficial consensus and surface the rigorous data beneath it.

Objective Morality: Part 3
Part 3 of this series in which the positive revelations begin to surface and we can start to draw the critical conclusions regarding the nature of Objective Morality and Natural Law.
- The Nature of Man
- Man is Healthy when able to make responsible choices
- The tough journey of self-training and overcoming our lack of discipline
- Freedom is therefore related to man’s ability to act individually but responsibly
- The evidence of the Creator’s intentions
- Conclusions about the requirements of a society’s ‘Rule of Law’
Following this, there will be one more short Part 4 (of around 10-15 mins) drawing the threads together and highlighting the important conclusions.
Comments on youtube will be left on in this part (unlike with previous parts) in the hope that people who do comment will have watched everything up to this point ;-)
By all means open up discussion on Substack here.

Objective Morality: Part 2
Whilst part 1 went into Natural Law and cause and effect, part 2 goes into the nature of the human psyche and demonstrates that although conscience is an important path of reason for coming to recognise right and wrong behaviour, it is not enough without the necessary internal work.
- The nature of lies
- Our relationship to truth
- The tendency to fall into consensus thinking
- Compliance
- Unconscious manipulative behaviours
- Group-think
The playlist can be found here on the LawAndAlchemy youtube channel. (The series is not yet complete but will probably contain 3 parts + a short conclusion part 4)

Details
Part 1 of a series on Objective Morality. In this series I get into a number of things regarding our value system / ethics and how we come to know that...
- It needs to be objective for us even to have a shared justice system and rule of law
- That in recognising that it is objective and therefore can be shared, that we then have equity as a result
- That coming to know and understand that morality is (in a complex sense) objective and 'defined', is not easy and that we can often get this wrong is ways we don't notice
- That ultimately, the nature of man and his reality gives clues to the creator's intentions
This is a deeper dive into this area touching on some philosophy, Natural Law, Psychology and more.
This will serve as expanded material for video number two of a series (not yet uploaded) on CommonLawConstitution entitled 'The Test for a Legitimate Constitution'.
Karmic Retribution
Calvin just won't stop chucking out critical material! Please read...
Karma is essentially justice. It is a lesson for behaviors that are out of alignment with natural law. Our free will decisions interact with the universe to unfold a consequence. This manifests as the conditions we experience together as a society. It is not something that happens instantly after a specific act. There is a time lapse between the accumulated behaviors and the consequential reality. The moral quality of individual behavior within society adds up in the aggregate to create either freedom or slavery. All mystery traditions teach their initiates spiritual development so that a desired condition can be manifested into reality.

The Cost of Convenience - Andrew Harry
Convenience is the way of sleep, the broad road, frictionless and full of light. It promises safety while dulling discernment.
We’re told progress means ease, that life should flow without resistance. That life should get simpler, smoother, faster. That friction is failure, not formation, but each time life gets easier, something essential in us atrophies. Convenience sells us time, while quietly stealing our will.
The Silent Exchange
Every convenience is a contract we seldom read. We exchange autonomy for efficiency, presence for speed, discernment for delegation, proof for presumption, sovereignty for “service.”
It starts small.

Bernhard Guenther - the Illusion of Conspiracy
I am not implying that we should simply look away and ignore it all.
However, without inner alignment, sincere psycho-spiritual work, and a fundamental shift in consciousness, people can fall into the illusion of being awake while actually lost in a mental rabbit hole.
Substack Note from Bernhard Guenther:
People have been trying to expose conspiracies for decades (myself included), and even more so over the past 5 years.
However, have you noticed that nothing truly changes in the long run?
No one is ever really revealed or arrested, and the conspiracies, evil, psy-ops, and wrongdoing continue, even as the ego believes it has achieved something by chasing the dangling carrot of “conspiracy revelation.”
The big 9/11 lie is still entrenched, and no major public revelation, let alone arrests, has ever taken place.
There will always be more to hook you in and “figure out.”
Why? Because there is no shift in consciousness and no inner transformation to positively impact the world.

https://substack.com/@bernhardguenther/note/c-162709176Bernhard Guenther: The Occult and Initiation
This is about testing the sincerity, commitment, and readiness of the seeker to determine whether they’re truly prepared to be initiated into deeper knowledge and the stages of genuine awakening
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but “occult” does not mean evil or negative. The word simply means hidden or concealed.
It comes from the Latin occultare (“to secrete” or “hide”), which is the frequentative of occulere (“to conceal”), rooted in celare (“to hide”).
There are occult Divine spiritual (positive) forces, and there are occult hostile (negative) spiritual forces.
“Occult” just means hidden from ordinary five-sensory perception. It points to the non-physical beings and forces that influence us from behind the veil.
The word has gotten a bad rap lately, often due to paranoid “truthers” oversimplifying it or because of dogmatic religious conditioning.
Most ancient esoteric knowledge was occulted (hidden) for a reason.
It wasn’t always to suppress truth, engage in Black Magic (left-hand path), or keep people in the dark (though that has happened and still happens). Often, it was to protect the seeker, the teachings, and to honor the esoteric principle:
“Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you.”
Or, more pointedly:
“Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.”
This is about testing the sincerity, commitment, and readiness of the seeker to determine whether they’re truly prepared to be initiated into deeper knowledge and the stages of genuine awakening.
Initiation, in that sense, has nothing to do with rituals, ceremonies, or anything external, as some “secret societies” have hijacked the esoteric meaning of the word, or as others may project into it.
True initiation is an inner process.
It is a trial that reveals whether the seeker is truly ready to cross the threshold, not driven by egoic demands, bargains, or fleeting curiosity, but by a sincere call from the immortal soul longing to unite with the Divine and bring forth the true Self.

The local group, centred around East Devon, will meet regularly every couple of weeks in locations that are conducive to good focussed discussion! These will include pubs, cafes, beaches etc.
The online group will meet over zoom and the times will vary in order to make it easier for others in the Commonwealth nations to attend. The information for all meetings of both the local and online groups will be published on the Courses and Events page. Please keep an eye on that page!
Details of the first meeting of the local group in Devon can be found here:
