The backstage power, the supranational financial superstructure, has achieved reprogramming, manipulation, and lying through numerous slogans, manipulative tricks, and traps that serve the self-interests of power, such as: "there is no tomorrow, only today," "all people are equal," "there is no soul, only mind," and "everything can be bought with money." Those who do not notice the traps set for us walk right into them. In order to reach even greater power, the supranational background power has applied both hard and soft tools and still does so today, associating each toolset with institutional and individual authorities. The role of these authorities is to always validate that the actions of the background power are correct and necessary. 

As mentioned earlier, the international backstage power always appeals to human consciousness, awareness, and knowledge. Manipulation is about how we become ignorant—manageable masses, who are unstable, easily misled, and influenced. Power and authority find "places" for influence in our individual selves because our universal self has already been occupied by the One, and is not suited for accepting foolishness. Our universal self is filled with love, courage, trust, and faith, where power and authority cannot attack. Our ignorance lies in not manifesting the love, courage, faith, and trust within us. The unfolding of our universal self, awakening, initiation, practicing love, and mindfulness are the only tools to resist the manipulation of power and authority. 

As mentioned in another essay, the hard tools of power include the starting, managing and ending revolutions and wars, which the backstage power always links with the political and economic system of a given country. Behind the scenes, the power that funds these actions and the authorities constructed by it have always been in control, such as during the English Civil Revolution when Oliver Cromwell, aided by instructions and money from the backstage power in the Netherlands, had the English king executed, overthrew the monarchy, and introduced the republic in England. 

In a similar way, but with different financial manipulation, the backstage power, the international money cartel, managed further revolutions, such as the French Revolution of 1789, funded by German banks, and the Russian Revolution of 1917, funded by American banks. A similar bought mass was seen in the 2004-2005 Ukrainian Orange Revolution, which cost the U.S. government approximately five billion dollars. The background power has also financed wars, such as the Thirty Years' War and World War I, when the wealth of the Hohenzollern, Habsburg, and Romanov dynasties partly ended up in the hands of the Federal Reserve. During World War II, American banks funded Hitler's rise to power and financed the invasion of several countries. 

In contrast to hard tools, the soft tools of power are much more diverse and have a longer-lasting impact, because unlike revolutions and wars, where change happens in an instant, soft tools can adapt to the situation and are often more effective. Since the manipulative process is slower, not everyone notices. If we look at the past two thousand years, the soft toolset includes institutionalized religion, science, philosophy, psychology, propaganda machines (e.g., media), and the individual authorities representing them. These authorities do not work alone but as part of a team, in an invisible army, serving the invisible hand's power and the apparatus it operates, such as institutionalized politics and the financial world, while convincing citizens that their thinking is wrong. Things are not as they perceive them with their "common sense" or inner understanding, but as power wants them to see it—twisted, lied about, and/or denied. Authorities can operate because they are supported by the apparatus, the institutional system, built by the invisible power. Individual authorities do not exist without institutional systems, just as institutional systems do not exist without individual authorities. 

The background power has used psychology and science, particularly pseudoscience, to declare them as unquestionable authorities, thereby promoting its materialist worldview, mainstream thinking, and shaping a modern slave/ant society whose dogma is "consume even more," whose morality is "pay for it," and whose ritual is "everything can be bought." It is worth noting that psychology was not always materialistic. In the 15th century, it was still part of philosophy, but since it was not sufficiently effective for the liberal power emerging at the time to achieve its dark goals; it had to be removed from philosophy and placed under medicine. But why under the sciences? Simply because science, especially research and innovation, always requires money. Money, therefore, is what led psychology and science to abandon their independence and serve, in a subservient manner, the manipulations of the invisible hand. It could be said that without money, there is no science. Power has used science to spread materialist ideologies, blurring the line between mind and intellect. It even invented the IQ test to measure people's intelligence. 

Since when have built authorities existed? Authorities used to be intellectual, religious, political, and military figures who gained the trust of people primarily through their knowledge and military bravery. In those times, individual built authorities were rare. Those who were not built authorities were primarily teaching authorities, such as Lao ce, Confucius, Zoroaster, Christ, and Buddha, who emerged when a societal problem needed addressing. They did not need to be built by power because they built themselves up through their knowledge and became credible. In the following centuries, the number of universally knowledgeable teachers, who were later called mystics, diminished, and the number of power-built authorities increased, such as Luther, Descartes, Cromwell, Freud, Lenin, Marx, Trotsky, Hitler, the representatives of the materialist Frankfurt School in the 20th century, such as Herbert Marcuse, and with a few exceptions, the American and French presidents of the 20th and 21st centuries.
