Here, there is nothing that is believed, so there is no one here who wants you to believe anything, either. Here, the invitation is to be free of all that you have been programmed, conditioned, acculturated, and domesticated to believe so that you can be free, period.
MISCONDUCT BY AUTHORITIES
As with the not-guilty persons who were "found to be guilty" and are now imprisoned by the authorities in the U.S., the masses around the globe have also been imprisoned as a result of misconduct by authorities who programmed and conditioned the masses and then threatened them with punishment if they questioned authority, either "earthly" or "heavenly."

In Amsterdam in the 1980's, there was a huge white sign with red lettering displayed on a canal wall off Damrak Street near the central train station. It read: "The abuse of power should come as no surprise."
Authorities abuse power knowingly, but they also abuse their power unknowingly, passing along concepts and ideas and beliefs which they believe are true because those concepts and ideas and beliefs were taught to them by authority figures who also made clear that there would be no tolerance for the questioning of any teachings - about country, culture, God, dogma, supposedly "holy writings" and supposedly "holy or hallowed places," things worth dying for, or anything else taught by a person in authority or considered to be an "An Authority."
Thus, billions are walking about the planet who have been stripped of the natural (nisarga) tendency of a child to question, especially to question nonsense when nonsense is being heard:
"A talking snake in a tree?"
"All women now regularly suffer the misery of menstrual cramps because the 'first woman' talked her mate into eating an apple?"
"Born of a virgin?!"
"Religion is right to persuade everyone to believe what its members believe and to encourage their members to kill anyone who does not accept those beliefs, be they members of our faith who failed an inspection by Inquisitionists; be they the 150,000,000 indigenous people killed in the American Holocaust, be they 'infidels,' whatever?"
"We have a world mission and must interfere in the affairs of nations around the world to inspire them to adopt our form of government, our economic system, our values. Really?"
"God loves me unconditionally but he is willing to make me suffer for eternity?"
"Ours is the greatest country on earth? By what criteria?"
"Planet earth is only 6000 years old?"
"We need to follow the example of our founding fathers? But they owned slaves, would not let women vote, and set up a non-representative, non-democratic form of government and called it a representative, democratic system."
"People have the right to tell women what they can and cannot do with their own bodies?"
"People have the right to tell a woman impregnated during a rape or an act of incest that they must, by law and under threat of stiff penalties, give birth to the child?"
"It is the business of religious people to decide who can sleep with whom, to decide who cannot sleep with whom, to decide what sexual positions are legal and which ones are not, to decide who can marry whom, and to decide who cannot marry whom?" Ad infinitum.
"Really?"
MISIDENTIFICATION
Yet of all of the cases where innocent people are presently incarcerated, most have been imprisoned as a result of misidentification. In the hundreds of cases where DNA evidence is now proving that people convicted in trials were innocent, their convictions were often based on accounts offered by an "eyewitness."
The case is the same with the billions of persons now among the non-Realized masses who have been similarly imprisoned as a result of misidentification, and "eyewitnessing" is the most distorted of all ways of viewing anything in the relative existence.

The Twice-Stolen Necklace Murders offers the non-duality message by way of a mystery-adventure novel, discussing the movement from pain to healing to awakening to peace.
From Dr. R.F. Maley, Ph.D, Professor Emeritus and former Head of the Department of Psychology, University of Houston: "Floyd Henderson's book, The Twice-Stolen Necklace Murders, is a fun read and an interesting mystery, but perhaps more importantly it serves as a vehicle for blending Eastern Philosophy and Native American Spirituality to make an intellectually challenging novel. The book's insights into both relationships and authoritarian conditioning of people in our society make it a must read, tracing the roots of narcissistic, sociopathic and psychopathic behaviors to the very core of the culture. This truly witty and politically-incorrect study of the aggressive nature of 'the American character' offers not only a diagnosis but also a treatment plan, making the book an excellent supplemental reading in courses such as psychology, anthropology, philosophy, sociology and counseling."
