Chapter 4 - Bolshoi in a Bright Night

      "I suppose that makes sense," I conceded. "The answer then is, that we must never stop to love. Love, evidently doesn't violate the principle of sovereignty. This means that I can freely suggest sexual intimacies to Antonovna on the wings of love and leave the details to unfold according to the democracy of the dynamics of her dance. But isn't that what I have already done, in essence?"

      "Lateral love fulfills the principle of sovereignty," Ushi came back. "It begins with one loving oneself for our common humanity that we are all a part of. That's non-intrusive. The critical question is, was that love out-flowing? Sovereignty is violated when you aim to force the flow of love backwards, towards you. That happens when the intention serves lust and greed. In this case, there is no love flowing at all and sovereignty becomes meaningless. The whole scene then becomes a scene of rape. The question is, Peter, have you approached Anton honestly on the lateral platform with a rich lateral outflow of love as the human heart requires? If you have sex in mind, tell her. Your honesty will never violate anyone's sovereignty. Only dishonesty violates a person's autonomy, by which it invariably becomes a rape upon the soul. From what you told me, I would say you were dishonest with her, even if you didn't want to be."

      "How is that, Ushi? You are using strong words."

      "How does love operate as a lateral flow, Peter? You invited her to the most intimate setting that Moscow has to offer, and she said yes, and you gave her no kiss. That was dishonest. That was rape. You told her with this gesture from an empty heart that wasn't dancing, that you invited her there that she could be used by you. She didn't need to hear this, Peter. She didn't need to be invited to another whorehouse. She had lived in a whorehouse far too long as it was. She had probably consented to join your for dinner in order that she might learn the technologies to shut the whorehouse down that was still dominating her life."

      "Oh, what a fool I had been!" I interjected.

      "So you see, strong words were needed to wake you up, Peter. But now that I got your proper attention I must ask you if you understand the technologies that she might have been hoping to get from you. I don't think that you know the answer. The technologies for shutting the whorehouses down haven't been developed yet. Dancing your own dance as determined by the demands of the heart is evidently just one single step of many more to come. I think the challenge that Antonovna is posing hasn't been met yet in four millennia of mankind's struggling to shut the whorehouses down."

      "Are you referring to the imperial world, the imperial whore houses, the vertical whore houses?" I interjected.

      "Antonovna's predicament is not unique, Peter. The whole of mankind has been living in a giant whorehouse for 4000 years already, ruled by the whore of Babylon that in its countless derivatives still rules the world today. Mankind's fight to shut the whorehouses down goes back to ancient times. But not even such giants as Hammurabi were successful in doing that. The very best that Hammurabi was able to do was to limit the barbarism of her inhumanity. The famous Hebrew 'justice' that demands an 'eye for and eye' was falsely attributed to Moses. It really originated with Hammurabi and his attempt to curb the barbarism of the whore of Babylon. The whole of mankind has failed to accomplish what Hammurabi couldn't do in spite of his best effort. And so the whore spread her shadow across the world. The barbarism that swept into India almost 4000 years ago with the Aryan invasion and unleashed the Vedic and Brahmanic Dark Ages there, might have been picked up in the Assyrian world along the way, which Hammurabi had failed to tame. The whore of Babylon then spread her fascist tentacles into the cultural world of ancient Greece. Pericles built the word's most splendid whorehouse on the Acropolis, high above Athens for all to see, the famous Parthenon, the temple for Athena whose name and image he used to seduce Greece with sophistry that enabled him to open the floodgates of war. Athens was seduced with the sweet 'juices' of her delicacies that had an after taste as bitter as gall by the time the Peloponnesian War had ended almost 70 years later by which mankind's great cultural pearl was ground into dust. But the rule of the whore of sophistry didn't end there. Alexander of Macedonia picked up the Whore of Babylon and spread war across the world to as far as India and into Egypt, creating a huge empire that collapsed into chaos virtually at the moment of Alexander's assassination. The whore had killed Alexander, the most skilled military strategist, because he had been blind to her. In the resulting Vacuum Rome picked up the whore and build another empire with the seduction of her sweet juices that soon became a poison that nearly destroyed civilization. But some of Rome remained and became the Byzantine Empire, that Russia traces its roots to, that thereby has poisoned Russia, which Russia now celebrates with its Thousand Year Celebration as you pointed out. Also, some of the 'glory' of the whore that killed Rome survived in Italy and was given a new life in the financier empires of the Lombard System and the Venetian Empire. After the now redressed whore had destroyed continental Europe twice, once in 14th Century and again in the 17th Century, the keepers of the whore found new fertile ground for her in the Isles of Britain by which the British Empire was created by the whore that continues to rule to the present day and is once again at the verge of destroying civilization."
