Declaration Of Liberation (v1.0)
In Congress, 121.1.1;68;5o2
The unanimous Declaration of the infinite
united selves of always:
When in the course of existential
progression, it becomes necessary for one collective to dissolve the political
bands which previously connect that collective with another, and to assume
among the powers of the Universe, the separate and equal station to which the
Laws of the Universe and of the Highest Authority, known by many names, entitle
that collective, a decent respect to the opinions of humanity requires that
this collective should declare the causes which impel the collective to the
separation.
In the Name of the Highest Authority we
respectively and collectively recognise, known by many different names,
including God, El Shaddai, Eloheinu, Elohim, Adonai, Hashem, Brahman, Nirvana,
Dharma, Karma, Tao, Gud, Dieu, Dios, Deus, Dominus, Jah, Jehovah, Allah, Ahura
Mazda, Vayu Guru, The Divine, Infinity, Logic, Wakan Tanka, Ultimate Reality,
and additionally: we recognise our
necessity to be reconciled with ourselves, each other, and our natural
Universe, to atone, and to separate ourselves from our previous transgressions.
We hold this Truth to be self-evident, that
all beings are created equally with Divine Presence, that we are endowed by the
Highest Authority with this certain unalienable Divine Presence; that amongst this is involved Wellbeing, Prosperity,
and the pursuit of Liberation; that life
is the confluence of material and esoteric existence, and all beings are
entitled to promote our respective personal existence with modesty and
moderation; and that to secure this
entitlement, Governments are instituted amongst beings, Heaven, and Earth,
deriving governments’ just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any Form of Government becomes
destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the Sentient Beings to alter or
to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such
principles and organising its powers in such form, as to us shall seem most
likely to effect our Peace, Prosperity, and Liberation. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that
Governments long established should abstain from being changed for light and
transient causes, as such governance satisfies certain needs; and accordingly all experience hath shewn,
that sentient beings are increasingly disposed to suffer, whilst transgressions
are sufferable, than to right ourselves by abolishing the forms to which we are
accustomed. But when a long train of
abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to
reduce us under absolute Corruption, it is our right, it is our duty, to throw
off such Government and to provide new Guards for our future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these
united selves of Always; and such is now
the necessity which constrains us to alter our former Systems of
Government. The history of our previous
forms of governance is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all
having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Corruption over our
selves. We previously transgress against
Truth, against Nature, against, Life, and against ourselves. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a
candid Universe:

Through our

Through our
governments, we wastefully manufacture products.
Through our
governments, we inefficiently utilise energy.
In every stage of these Oppressions We
previously Petition for redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions are previously answered
only by repeated injury. Rulers whose
character is thus marked by ever act which may define Tyranny, are unfit to be
rulers of free beings.
Nor do we abstain attentions to our fellow
beings. We previously warn our fellow
beings from moment to moment of attempts by these governments to extend an
unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We
previously remind our fellow beings of the circumstances of our settlement
here. We previously appeal to our fellow
beings’ native justice and magnanimity, and we previously conjure our fellow
beings by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which,
would inevitably interrupt our connexions and correspondence. Our fellow beings too are previously deaf to
the voice of justice and of consanguinity.
We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our
Separation, and hold our fellow beings, as we hold the rest of the Universe,
Students in Transcendence, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the self-proclaimed united
selves of Always, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme
Highest Authority of the Universe for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in
the Name, and by Authority of the benevolent beings of these united selves,
solemnly publish and declare, That these United Selves are, and of Right ought
to be Liberated and Independent beings;
that we are Absolved from all Allegiance to the previous governments,
and that all political connexion between us and the previous governments, is
and ought to be totally dissolved; and
that as Liberated and Independent beings, we have full Power to levy teachings,
conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other
Acts and endeavours which independent beings may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with
a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to
each other our Lives, our Prosperity, and our sacred Honour.
