Sometimes this philosophy has been hidden from the public and at other times it has been placed in plain view- though always in such a way as to remain unrecognized by outsiders.
Mark Booth

Can you tell me where we’re going to?
Can you tell me what it is we really want to find?
Is the truth really there?
Or is it right under our hair?
For all we know it’s been there all the time.


They shall then know truth and, more than that,
they shall realize that from the beginning
truth has been in the world unrecognized. 2
Manly P. Hall
Melchizedek and the Mystery of Fire

I found the pieces in my hand
They were always there
It just took some time
for me to understand
Vertical Horizon
I’m Still Here

I say, nothing comes from dreamers but dreams
I say, sitting idle in our boat while everyone else is down the stream
Nothing comes from talkers but sound
We can talk all we want to,
but the world still goes around and round.
Round and round.
We go round and round and round…


Up and down
And in the end,
it’s only round and round,
and round
Pink Floyd
Us and Them

…And what we’re looking for
still isn’t found

I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For

I must be looking for something
Something sacred I lost
But the river is wide
And it’s too hard to cross
Billy Joel
River of Dreams

Round and round and
round and round we go
Where we’re gonna stop nobody knows
3 Doors Down
Round and Round

Would be sure to set you spinnin‘
with you feet never touchin’ the ground
And I’m round and round and round and
round and round and round and round
Aerosmith
Round and Round

Round and round
and round and round
and round we go
The Cure
Round and Round

So, ’round and around
and around we go
Where the world’s headed,
nobody knows
The Temptations
Ball of Confusion (That’s What the World Is Today)

We’re on a ride to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin’ that ride to nowhere
We’ll take that ride
Talking Heads
Road To Nowhere

but under their nose
Not a star cause I’m a sun
