I never did accept the 'expertise' of top down demonisations of things people had eaten for mostly as long as people have been, but then I don't stand first in scientific 'explanations' as the basis of deciding or choosing or leaving unchosen. I see science as a dalek's eye view of life - and often coupled to a very similar disposition. I don't see wisdom as being in the scientific toolset - excepting to learn from mistakes rather than learn how to hide mistakes and seem to get away with it.
The use of Ancel Keys as a PR campaign on behalf of cartel interests that also fit into social re-engineering agenda of pharmed and managed people units can also be see in the 'wrong turns of history' as the selection and promotion of the ideas or theories that most serve the interests of the power establishment of the day - who have the means to induce acceptance through all channels of influence - such as Keys onto the front of Time magazine.
Invested interests regard themselves too big to fail or rather - convince others that if they go down, the whole economy will crash with them. And in a sense it is true, because once the lie is out, it soon becomes apparent that it is not merely a mistake or a bad apple but a pervasive and systemic corruption of such a nature as to be unaddressable in its branches.
But I do feel for a simpler answer than anything the 'problem' defines or frames as narrative reality believed, and that is to identify it where where it is and own it there, as the first step in seeing and acting differently. The scientific disposition as I see it, is aligned in the externalisation or dissociation and displacement of the spiritual, psychic and emotional to the physical. This is also the 'chemistry' of persistent fear. Fear that is largely hidden and wanted to be hidden - with great investments in anything that can serve to keep it hidden - ie fear and sickness management Inc.
Giving authority away neglects that no matter who tells you what, the final test of truth is your own heart's acceptance. The contract of 'trust' that is blind to or seeking to evade its own innate responsibility can be called lazy, gullible, wilfully ignorant etc - but is largely habit of an automatic set of reactions in place of a living curiosity and discernment. It is said that most people demand unconsciousness and are kept in such by their own consent But where there is a lack of light of transparency and accountability - ie genuine relational communication, there is corruption or self-interest at the expense of the whole. 'Communication breakdown - It's always the same'.
I see nature, life, biology as a total communication that we have barely scratched at because we regard communication in concepts that are twice removed from reality, being symbols of symbols. Life is energetic communication that includes processes that operate millions or billions of times per second. We (daleks) package this up in linear models and processes that limit where we can move while rejecting or exterminating anything that doesn't serve our 'control' or the attempt to dominate and possess whatever life is left - ie it operates an anti-life agenda as a 'survival' or defence script.
The attempt to coerce, control or manipulate evokes a feeling in my gut - if not also in my heart and mind - but the nature of any apparent information or communication is not merely its presented form - but the context of its purpose. I don't need to be a scientist to smell a rat or pick up on deceits intended or relayed unawares. But I do need self-honesty - because we are 'hacked' through our own 'investments' in wanting things to be true that are not, (or not true that are). Negative or fearfully defined self interest results in a world of errors and terrors - but then I add that once we are awake to deceits we also see that they effectively run their people. But we want to see it the other way around in personal guilt and blame trading because we want to believe we are free.
Symptoms are not problems so much as messengers serving a communication who we are initially perhaps very disinclined to listen to and then only tend accept messages that protect the problem. How else would sickness management usurp healing? Science does not deal with matters of the heart's knowing and so they are embarassing or and thus distantiated. However scientists are of course human beings and are not confined to a toolset unless they choose to be so.
I walked a lot in the Alps a month ago in such a way that if my heart function was dodgy I would have died or at least collapsed. I also had an insight to a specific quality of stress that I associated with the prelude to certain kinds of chest pain - which is very welcome as that is within the realm of responsibility. The stress we are not aware of because we feel we are doing what is good or necessary and give all attention there is the danger of any 'calling' that becomes automatic instead of a present checking in. Checking in at heart of course - where else will balance within a wholeness of being be recognised?
