What is the Inner Circle?

The term "Inner Circle" describes three different types of groups, listed here in order from smallest to largest, shortest lasting to longest enduring:

  1. Any group while they are playing Morton's List or otherwise experiencing Random Reality.


  2. A named group organized around playing Morton's List and/or experiencing Random Reality on a regular basis (usually referred to as a "Local Inner Circle")


  3. The group containing all people who have ever played Morton's List or otherwise been awakened by direct experience with Random Reality (usually referred to as the "Global Inner Circle")

Members of the Global Inner Circle are united by the desire to enjoy Random Reality, whether as a leisure activity or a tool for personal evolution, growth and fulfillment. In other respects they are an incredibly diverse group with wide ranging interests. Members' takes on and interests in Morton's List and Random Reality vary widely. Some focus on combating boredom in their lives through wildly unusual activities. Others who are "too busy to be bored" instead use Random Reality to help them see the bigger picture and not get caught up in running in endless circle of being busy all the time. Still others tap into the non-dual spirituality of Random Reality, using it like a compass to always point them towards enlightenment.

The Global Inner Circle is the broad foundation of the movement, or Random Reality Revolution, which brings the entertainment and profound benefits of this lifestyle and philosophy to people everywhere. Currently, there are an estimated 60,000 active members of the Global Inner Circle, worldwide, with the majority living in the U.S. and English speaking countries. Those aged 13 to 30 tend to be most receptive to the message, though Random Reality works for all ages, genders, races and cultural backgrounds.

Using Random Reality to purposely introduce chance into our lives, we stir the pot, unclog the arteries and remove the rust inhibiting us from realizing and reaching our full potential. The Global Inner Circle is waking up, one member at a time, to the limitless possibilities within. You are invited to join the Global Inner Circle, to participate in and become an indispensable member of this extraordinary movement.

Welcome to The Radius Newsletter

Raise your right elbow - it's going down!

Welcome to The Radius newsletter, bringing you this month's Morton's List news and everything Random Reality,

What a difference a month makes! Roller coaster ride? More like the Great Space Coaster! From the wilds of Alaska to the air conditioned play space of Origins in Columbus, The SuperiCore Group has been Listing non-stop for weeks and surpassing all limits of tactics and nerdurance.

As June draws to a close, the Twilight Lords take a breath and prepare for the birthday celebrations of July and more outreach in August. The Wheels of Karma are turning as Summer Quest spreads the Word of Morton across the nation, inspiring Inner Circles and Listers everywhere with the simple, true message: The Karma of Morton's List conquers all. Leading by example, the Twilight Lords push on against all odds and demonstrate that all obstacles are dissolved by trusting in the List, like the faces of Nazis exposed to the Light of Karma.

Allow yourself to be inspired by the Karmic Samurai Warrior's Creed, written in the 14th century for people of all time:

I have no parents - I make the heavens and the earth my parents,
I have no home - I make gut awareness my home.
I have no divine power - I make honesty my divine power.
I have no means - I make docility my means.
I have no magic power - I make personality my magic power.
I have neither life nor death - I make conscious breathing my life and death.
I have no body - I make stoicism my body.
I have no eyes - I make the flash of lightening my eyes.
I have no ears - I make sensibility my ears.
I have no limbs - I make promptness my limbs.
I have no laws - I make self-protection my laws.
I have no strategy - I make freedom to kill and freedom to restore life my strategy.
I have no designs - I make seizing opportunity by the forelock my designs.
I have no miracles - I make righteous laws my miracles.
I have no principles - I make adaptability to all circumstances my principles.
I have no tactics - I make emptiness and fullness my tactics.
I have no talent - I make ready wit my talent.
I have no friends - I make my mind my friend.
I have no enemy - I make carelessness my enemy.
I have no armor - I make benevolent righteousness my armor.
I have no castle - I make immovable mind my castle.
I have no sword - I make absence of mind my sword.

A Fate is Random,

The Karmic Order of Twilight Lords,

T.A.C.S.

Morton's List Stays on Target

Major Department Store Brings Morton's List Online

Morton's List, the game that was kicked out of Hot Topic even with record sales, has been picked up by Target. Well, sort of. Due to a new deal with Amazon.com, Target now carries Morton's List in its online store at the same price as Amazon. Apparently, online sales are a lot less controversial than carrying it in-store!

Whether you made it or missed it, What Went Down news items follow up on news and events previously posted in The Radius Forum.

EVENT - AlasKarma

Friday, June 13th - Sunday, June 15th, Wasilla, Alaska, USA

With the power of Morton and the magic of the Alaskan wilderness, who knows what can go down? Big Cheddar and the rest of the Order of the N.E.W. know all too well. That's why they had to bring a Karmic Gathering to their home so others could experience for a weekend what they get to experience nearly every day. A limited amount of information has been posted regarding what went down at AlasKarma, but we here at the Radius will bring everything as of press time to you right here.
