Number 6: Where am I?

Number 2: In the Village.

Number 6: What do you want?

Number 2: Information.

No.8: “Interesting . . . that he could separate fact from fantasy so quickly.”

No.2: “I told you he was different! I knew it wouldn't work! `Feed him with hallcinatory drugs. Put him in a dangerous environment. Talk to him through microphones!'”

No.8: “It's always worked and it would have worked this time if you hadn't . . . ”

No.2: “But it didn't, did it? `Give him love; take it away. Isolate him! Make him KILL . . . then face him with DEATH! He'll CRACK! Break him, even in his mind, and the rest will be easy!' Hmph. I should never have listened to you!”

"First, I would impress that the cavern is nearly inaccessible. The entrance is 666 feet down the sheer canyon wall...the scientist's wish to work unmolested, without F.E.A.R....a trip there would be fruitless, and the visitor would be sent on his way.

Our light would not penetrate the gloom, and until stronger ones are available, we will not know what the chamber contains. Some say snakes, but other boo-hoo'd this idea and think it may contain a deadly gas or chemicals used by the ancients. No sounds are heard.

The whole underground installation gives one of shaky nerves the creeps. The gloom is like a weight on one's shoulders, and our flashlights and candles only make the darkness blacker. Imagination can revel in conjectures and ungodly daydreams back through the ages that have elapsed till the mind reels dizzily in space." --G.E. Kincaid

[A.D.] "Is there a light?" [No. 6] "Turn yours off, adjust to the darkness." --Shattered Visage

"Stone walls do not a prison make, or iron bars a cage." --Number 2

--A sign from the Labour Exchange; Arrival“A still tongue makes a happy life”
--Village Maxim"...the mysterious alchemist and eighteenth-century Italian count, Cagliostro:

'I belong neither to any country nor to any particular place; my spiritual being lives its eternal existence outside time and space. When I immerse myself in thought I go back through the Ages. When I extend my spirit to a world existing far from anything you perceive, I can change myself into whatever I wish. Participating consciously in absolute being, I regulate my action according to my surroundings. My country is wherever I happen to set foot in the moment. ...I am that which is...free and master of life. There are beings who no longer possess guardian angels: I am one of those.'
According to Evola, for one who has completed the Work, sleep is no longer a pause for obliteration, but the staging ground for a cosmic awakening." --2012, p184, Pinchbeck

"Build your own kingdom; don't worship others."

"If we are one we can defeat two." --Number 6

"Mean Twos. Lean Twos. "We have the means" Twos. Keen Twos. Clean Twos. "God save the Queen" Twos. Each different. Each the same. Two faced." --Number 6, Shattered Visage.

"The community can rest assured that their interests are very much my own and anything I can do to maintain the security of the citizen, will be my primary objective. Be seeing you."
--Number 6

Freeman on the Land

What is a freeman on the Land?

A Freeman-on-the-Land is a human being in a common law jurisdiction who lawfully revokes or denies consent to be represented and governed and exists completely free of all statutory restraints, obligations and restrictions.

Can you get a license?
A Freeman-on-the-Land recognizes that a license is permission to engage in a lawful activity and realizing we are all equal, refuses to seek permission from anyone, preferring instead to rely on claims.
Anything you can do with a license within the legislative framework you must be able to do lawfully without license outside that framework. You cannot get a license to engage in unlawful activities, and to ask permission to engage in a lawful activity is to be seen as a child by the one who grants that permission.
Are you a child?
What do you give up?
You give up the opportunity to beg for permission and so called benefits.
Now tell me this, if you do not know exactly what common law rights and freedoms you have given up for your societal benefits, how do you know what you received are in fact benefits?
Would you buy a car and not knowing what you paid for it try claiming you got a great deal?
What is the benefit to claiming Freeman-on-the-Land status?
You can choose to be governed by a whole stack of statutes, regulations and by-laws that you are incapable of understanding or you can choose to be free of those.
If you can’t see that benefit I can’t help you.
Does that mean there is no law?
No! You are still bound like all others to the law; you just do not have to give statutes the force of law.
You may not harm another human being, damage another’s property or use fraud or mischief in your contracts.
That’s the law. Words of others who would otherwise be your representative simply will not have the force of law over you.
How does it work?
It’s really very simple.
You educate yourself a little bit so you understand what it is you are claiming.
Then you create and serve a Notice of Understanding and Intent and a Claim of Right.
This grants the affected parties an opportunity to dispute your claims, if they don’t the claim is cured and the rights, freedoms or powers thus claimed are secured and free to be exercised with total impunity.
If anyone tries interfering with you after that, they are breaking the law and if you have a notice of fee schedule served, they will have to pay according to that schedule.
[No. 2] "Isn't that logical, don't we live by logic?"

[No. 6] "Not your logic, not anymore. In your game, what you do to me here, won't stop me."
[No. 2] "Are you quite sure it is a game?"
[No. 6] "Yes. Because no one gets close to two, unless two wants them to.

--AMC's The Prisoner"How could you abandon what you love?" [A.D.]

"No love without freedom. No freedom without love.
Simple truths. Worth dying for." [No. 6]
-Shattered Visage, The Prisoner

"Feel free." --Number 6

"Fear", Jason said, "can make you do more wrong than hate or jealousy. If you're afraid you don't commit yourself to life comletly; fear makes you always, always hold something back." ~Jason Taverner, Pt 3 Ch 21 Flow My Tears The Policeman Said... Phillip K. Dick

THEY are our prisoners...

Every great advance in natural knowledge has involved the absolute rejection of authority.
