• ubiety (n.; also ubeity): 1. the state of being in a definite place; ubiety is generally said to be either repletive⁽⁰¹⁾, circumscriptive⁽⁰²⁾, or definitive⁽⁰³⁾; but these terms are taken in different senses by different authors; according to the best usage, repletive ubiety is that of a body which excludes other bodies from its place by its absolute impenetrability; circumscriptive ubiety is that of any extended image which is in a place part by part without excluding other objects; definitive ubiety is connection with a portion of space, all in every part, and not part by part; [e.g.]: “O Soul of Sir John Cheke, thou wouldst have led me out of my way, if that had been possible,—if my ubiety did not so nearly resemble ubiquity, that in Anywhereness and Everywhereness I know where I am, and can never be lost till I get out of Whereness itself into Nowhere”.

Unadulterated:

Here is an example of what the word ‘unadulterated’ refers to in that ‘Library’ webpage quote:

[Richard]: ‘(...) here is the way those three words, in the term ‘pure consciousness experience’ (PCE), are used:

1. The word ‘pure’ is synonymic with ‘unadulterated’, ‘uncontaminated’, ‘unpolluted’, and so on.

2. The word ‘consciousness’ describes the condition of a body being conscious (the suffix ‘-ness’ forms a noun expressing a state or condition).

3. The word ‘experience’ refers to a sentient creature participating personally in events or activities.

Thus a PCE is the condition of a flesh and blood body being conscious sans an adulterant, a contaminant, a pollutant, and so on – specifically the identity in toto (both ‘I’ as ego/self and ‘me’ as soul/spirit) ...’. (Richard, Actual Freedom List, No. 101, 3 October 2005).

• “Over the course of this survey of Buddhist ideas, a major change in the conception of karma is seen. This article suggests that a perennial problem for Buddhists may have been influential in bringing about the change: the problem of how the *unawakened* can escape their own negative conditioning”. [emphasis added]. ~ (from “Escaping the Inescapable: Changes in Buddhist Karma”, by Jayarava Attwood; Jan 1, 2014, Journal of Buddhist Ethics).

• “Resonance or no resonance, trendy or not, humanity will benefit from more woke humans. Eckhart Tolle writes that to be *unawakened* is to be unconscious—that is, to be numb or to be dead. For all its worth, our state of wokeness may be humanity’s only insurance of survival”. [emphasis added]. ~ (from “The State of Wokeness”, by Michael Baylosis; Nov 3, 2017, Philippines Daily Inquirer, Makati City, Philippines; ©2017 Asianet-Pakistan).

• “Leaders lead. They don’t divide; they don’t create a climate that is poisonous”. (Jeb Bush, a former Republican candidate for the White House); “The woman is a disaster!” (Feminist Camille Paglia on Hillary Clinton); “I’m just depressed at how much better preserved you are than I am after twenty-two years. It’s amazing. You’re still a southern peach and I am, according to Twitter, a scrotum”. (Actor Hugh Grant, on his former co-star, Andie MacDowell); “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains *unawakened”*. (Socialite Paris Hilton); “Look at my face. It’s going a bit craggy. I need Botox. I am finally going to do it, although I must admit I hate the idea of sticking needles in my face”. (Celebrity hairdresser Nicky Clarke, 58); “You are only young once but you can be immature for ever”. (Germaine Greer).

• “Even Victorians, who regarded *‘unawakened’* young girls as sexless beings, saw Lewis Carroll’s requests of photographing girls without clothes as out of order. Correspondence written from 1879 between Mr. Carroll and a Mr. and Mrs. Mayhew survives today and sheds light on how people were dealing with the subject then. The Mayhews didn’t mind the youngest one being photographed naked {!sic!; their ‘didn’t mind’ reply renders the columnist’s categorical ‘out of order’ assertion null and void} but had issues about the eleven-year-old since she was reaching the age of consent {!ha!; no longer a ‘sexless being’; not to be considered an ‘unawakened’ young girl anymore}. Taking pictures of the oldest one in the flesh would also be out of the question {!ho-ho-ho!; she is a ‘sexual’ being, an ‘awakened’ damosel}. Mr. Carroll wrote: ‘If I did not believe I could take pictures of all children without any lower motive than a pure love of Art, I would not ask it’”. [emphasis and curly-bracketed inserts added]. ~ (from “Lewis Carroll, Through a Glass Darkly”, by Javier Espinoza; March 5, 2010, Wall Street Journal).

The Third Alternative

(Peace On Earth In This Life Time As This Flesh And Blood Body)

Here is an actual freedom from the Human Condition, surpassing Spiritual Enlightenment and any other Altered State Of Consciousness, and challenging all philosophy, psychiatry, metaphysics (including quantum physics with its mystic cosmogony), anthropology, sociology ... and any religion along with its paranormal theology. Discarding all of the beliefs that have held humankind in thralldom for aeons, the way has now been discovered that cuts through the ‘Tried and True’ and enables anyone to be, for the first time, a fully free and autonomous individual living in utter peace and tranquillity, beholden to no-one.
