Conspiracy theories are no longer just a curiosity for afficionados
but a politically salient theme in the age of Trump, Brexit and
"fake news". One of the countries that has been entrapped in
conspiratorial visions is Turkey, and this book is the first
comprehensive survey in English of the Turkish conspiratorial
mind-set. It provides a nuanced overview of the discourses of
Turkish conspiracy theorists and examines how these theorists argue
for and legitimize their worldview. The author discusses a broad
range of conspiracy theories, including some influenced by Kemalist
and Islamist perspectives as well as those of the ruling Justice
and Development Party. The most influential authors, books,
references and images within the conspiracist milieu are all
examined in detail. This book will be an important source for
scholars interested in extremism in Turkey and the societal and
political impact of conspiracy theories.
The Triumph of Consciousness traces the history of globalization
during the past hundred-plus years by examining the writings and
public statements of various financial and political elites who are
determined to implement an authoritative, non-democratic, global
government. At the forefront of this movement are the
Anglo-American banking establishment, the Rockefeller Foundation,
the Ford Foundation, the Bilderberg Group, the Council on Foreign
Relations, the Trilateral Commission, the Club of Rome, and others.
By various mechanisms, these same organizations control the
environmental movement and promulgate its prevailing ethos: Earth
is overpopulated, and humans are causing potentially catastrophic
global warming. But are these postulations based on concrete,
scientific evidence? Or were they contrived to further an ulterior
agenda? Why don't the mainstream corporate media investigate these
questions? The Triumph of Consciousness addresses these issues,
while reminding readers that societal change begins when
individuals overcome their fear and apathy and embrace their
inherent strength and wisdom.
This moment has been prophesized for thousands of years. Learn how
to heal, thrive and embrace a new, awakened reality with Toltec
wisdom. The Aztec calendar is divided into natural time cycles
known as Suns, each lasting 6,625 years. We're undergoing the shift
from the Fifth Sun to the Sixth Sun, a 29-year transitional period
that is both challenging humankind and offering new opportunities
for healing and realignment. In this book, Sergio Magana
(Ocelocoyotl) explores the ancient Toltec wisdom and insight around
this long-anticipated transition, outlining the global events
already evidencing change and highlighting the significance of the
years 2012, 2021, and 2026. He offers guidance through the
movements of the Suns, the underworlds, the collective unconscious,
and the unresolved imbalances we're currently navigating, and
shares ancient breathing practices and lucid dreaming exercises to
help us reconnect with our true selves. Through embracing this
vital inner work, we're taking the first steps toward dreaming our
waking world into existence, a world in which we can heal, thrive,
and look within to create a new stage of collective consciousness.
