Substances

"...but, I was drunk"..."But I was stoned at the time"...etc...

Okay....then don't DRINK, dipshit.

"But I love it, it's fun!"

 A lot of things are "fun" that are fuckin stupid and potentially dangerous.

"Well, people just have to drink in moderation".

Well, that's always the intention isn't it? Moderation? Which requires calibration and.... LOGIC......neither of which will be functioning too tightly if you're fucking WASTED, which doesn't concern LOGIC because alcohol penetrates right through to your limbic brain......catch my drift?

"Yeah I'm just going to take one shot because I have to drive later..........mmm that was good, I feel good, maybe one more shot and that's it because I have work tomorrow.............jeeze this buzz feels so good. Ok, that's enough for me(for a few minutes until I take another)....

You really think moderation and LOGIC are powerful enough to transcend your addiction or prospective addictions? Let's see if the counselors at AA meetings are using "logic" and "moderation" in their guidance to the alcoholics. And I'm sure once they hear that they need to use logic and moderation, that the veil will be pulled off their eyes, they'll see "the light", and then they'll be able to stop their addictions. "Oh, silly me! I wish someone had told me AHEAD of time to use logic before I downed a bottle of Jack a day for three months! Well now I know better so I'll walk out my counselors office and everything will be back to normal, fuckin' dandy!". Substances are consumed to stimulate your EMOTIONS, the aim for the limbic brain, they are nothing to do with LOGIC.

Are humans not DELUDED enough when their SOBER? Now you want to throw substances in? Don't even get me started.

And I love how people try to relate it to spirituality: "But, you know, Jesus drank".

Oh, so are you suggesting that your level of Higher Consciousness is up to par with Jesus Christ's? Hmmmm.......

And another popular drug(which I haven't done) is cocaine. I was told by someone who used cocaine that you experience 20 minutes of feeling like God, and 2 hours of feeling like shit. Well....if you're going to primitively snort ground up chemical rocks in order to feel better about yourself, that can't be the greatest cause to build true self-esteem. Self-worth comes from the Heart and Soul(inner transformation and endurance). So, what good is this "great" feeling if it's 1) really nothing to do with YOU at all, and 2) the user is willing to gamble their hollistic well-being in order to feel a form of self-satisfaction which A) last for the blink of an eye, and B) is entirely their own perception of an unnatural mind? Kinda like that story "The Emperor's New Clothes". And when I say "perception", it's because the people looking at you aren't seeing a heavenly diety; they're seeing a trashed coke-head who was feeble-minded enough to resort to primitively snorting ground up rocks into their "precious" brain to feel a pride- which is not only a false, chemically manufactured experience- but it's at the cost of mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional health. Oh, and the cherry on top: it's addictive. How pathetic. And now I'll leave you with a quote:

Weak is he who does not have control over himself.

Religion

I've spent YEARS doing research, field-testing different spiritual ideas, "philosophies", methods, practices, etc. I know a ton about the art of self-help. It really all comes down to understanding the word "God", and clearing up any delusions associated.

I'm pleased to relieve people of what God is NOT; some type of Santa Clause holding a trident who will strike you down if you curse aloud or if you're gay. Actually, God is love- so if you resort to homophobia or hate crimes, you are disgracing yourself and God.....yes you are, yes you are....yes you are....don't argue, I've thoroughly studied metaphysics, spirituality, and the collective human psyche. God is NOT an external diety or entity outside of you. Nope, the fundamentalist Christians need to let go of the delusion that God is Ian McKellen in Lord of the Rings. This is false. God is omnipresent, omnipotent, infinite and eternal love and light. Every human being is connected to God, hence the term Higher Self. And there you have it:

There. The veil of delusion has been pulled of your eyes.

Groupies

(DISCLAIMER- I have NO association with groupies. Ew.)

GROUPIES

I think the whole groupie archetype is extremely ironic. It's perceived to be so glamourous and desired- when not only am I about to to say isn't glamorous, or even overrated, but straight-up gross, the opposite altogether. It's not remotely any kind of novelty to be with groupies, quite the contrary. Why would it be? Being with a groupie is a self-inflicted insult. Groupies are USERS. They don't give a fuck about you, they care about the lifestyle that you provide- and then bragging about it to their retarded girl friends. Groupies, if you think about it, are simply animals disguised as women. They're women who's consciousness' are below the Earth's crust- their consciousness is confined to biological and psychological circuitry, which is not only confined to the Ego, but ironically 90 percent of the Ego is an illusion anyway, while the remaining 10 percent just tells you not to step in front of a bus. So these female animals are living in

a part of themselves which ISN'T even their "Self"- but the Ego which wants to fuck with you for your entire life and would kill you if it could. Plus, although groupies are physically attractive....beauty is extremely common. One step lower than a groupie and you might as well be a necrophiliac; you could meet either groupie or corpse and within a matter of seconds have sexual relations with either one of them. The only difference is that the groupie is still breathing. What's more is, if a woman is going to be that into you in such a lack of time, that shows all the less importance of a soulful connection, so don't even think she's going to be loyal. The lower the consciousness, the more replaceable you are. How? Because MOST of humanity are low consciousness/ ignorant anyway. So you should also look forward to dowloading the sess-pool of energetic baggage from her and her past boyfriends, her past boyfriend's ex-girlfriends, those ex-boyfriends'

ex-girlfriends' ex-boyfriends', and so on until you've downloaded the low frequency imbalance of chi from the citizens of the world. Ew, way to toxify your Spirit. Celebrities, news flash for you: If an attractive woman goes up to your hotel room, that's not to say she's going to enjoy herself, just comply because she's attracted(albeit egoicly thus illusorilly). That's not to say there's chemistry or arousal, or that it will be a fulfilling experience for her. So, the fact that Brett Micheals is Brett Micheals, may be able to get a *CERTAIN TYPE* of woman up to his hotel room when on tour….BUT…the mere fact that he is Brett Micheals- by name and reputation and social status- is not going to give her an orgasm….unless of course they somehow form a deep emotional and energetic bond. She is only “attracted” by her beliefs rather than actual chemistry, and “attracted” based on her low level of consciousness, and those two insights are not enough to bring her fulfillment. And if you don't care that it's a fulfilling experience for her, then you're a Paleolithic fuck-tard in need of a cavity-check to retrieve your head. Grow a Heart.

Rap

RAP MUSIC

Now, yes there is rap music that I enjoy listening to. But I want to talk about the culture backing it.

So, a future rapper is born into a poor family in the getto. At 13, he impregnates his girlfriend, a few years later he's selling crack. Later, he joins a gang. Over a period of a few more years he gets shot in the leg 7 times. His friends get shot and killed in gang fights. After a few more years of this, he starts to write it all down poetically. So now we know via lyrics his story- that he's had it rough, but actually has an emotional side, so he's hardcore. Wow.....so now let's shift over seas to the turbulent times in the Middle East where all our troops are getting their teeth blown out, shards of skull in their eyes form the innocent by-standers, and their limbs flying off as casually as a sneeze by weapons of mass destruction. When was the last time any WMD were found in Compton? Do you think these hardcore gangstas would survive a sixtieth of a milisecond in the Middle East? Let's show "Fiddy" Cent or Lil' John, or some 2pac and Biggie fanatics some footage to see if they are able to resist pissing their pants. Crenshaw would be a luxurious dream from the soldiers over seas. Gangsters might as well be getting Swedish massages in contrast to the army. Why don't we bring a few troops home to have a deal with Dr. Dre? I'm sure their stories are more intense than most gangsters'- as most people's stories would be who have driven a tank rather than a Pontiac with an oozie in the trunk. The guy in the tank holds my attention more... sorry 2Pac. One last question: when was the last time you saw two alternative rock, or country, or jazz musicians dressed in blue and red shooting each other up because of the lyrics, and subsequently using the that violent incident to then go right more lyrics? I never hear sparring lyrics between John Mayer and Jack Johnson. I rest my case.

Homophobia

Humans want to and need to develop strength. Homophobia is fear. A person of strength is not swayed by fear of the character of another human being. And spiritually, God is love, so you're pushing away from God.....yes you are....yes you are....yes you are....don't argue, I've studied energy and the human psyche. If a gay man or woman talks to you, that doesn't mean they want to take you and put you in a cage under their beds.....and if they do, that's one in millions of others, so don't generalize. Tolerating the gay community does not have to mean that after talking to or having friendships, you are expected to go give Elton John and Boy George a lap dance.

"But what if a gay person makes me uncomfortable? It makes me weary of them."

...Ummmm...if you go see a movie and it sucks ass(no pun intended), are you going to be afraid of cinemas?

I have a few gay and lesbian friends, and they're actually waaayyy more hilarious and awesome than most straight people I've met. Yet, I notice how after hanging out with my friends, I don't go home and watch Richard Simmons. There is an equalibrium of tolerance.

Politics

I love talking politics but not for the reason that most people probably want to talk about it. I like talking about politics because politics is in the top few mechanisms that can Although I don’t fully agree with liberal values, I continue to volunteer for and vote for liberals because they are significantly more in alignment with the laws of nature than conservatives. The Laws of Nature are the processes and functions that all existence in the Universe are orchestrated by. 

These "laws" are often used to describe fundamental truths or principles that govern the natural world and human behavior. The Laws of Nature are ultimately based on the quintessential and fundamental commodity that all of life is comprised of, which are the laws of energy. These laws operate both in the personal- or microcosmic level— and on the universal or macrocosmic level. In order for our personal level to be in an alignment with the universal level, the human body’s energy centers must be opened and balanced.

Subsequently, when the body’s energy centers are opened, the given person will naturally feel a resonant energy frequency in their body’s energy-field when measuring the degree of resonance from supporting the principles that liberals advocate, and a dissonant energy frequency when considering the values that conservatives have, thereby confirming that the Laws of Nature or Laws of Energy are, whether liberals are conscious of it or not, significantly congruent to their values—more so than conservative values.

For example, Conservatives more often than not tend to be people who place a lot of value on God and Jesus. In order to have a full connection to God and the spirit of Jesus, a person must be connected to their Soul, but more specifically their Soul Center. The Soul Center is an energy center located in the center of the chest, which is where spirit—love—enters the body, which is additionally why it’s not possible for any intimate relationship with your partner to reach its optimal fulfillment, nor can self-esteem be optimized, unless this energy center is activated.

And, unfortunately most people who are conservative don’t even know about this. The technical term for this energy center is an “Electro-Magnetic Energy Vortex”, though traditionally it is referred to most often as the “4th Chakra”, which you can read about on the Internet or books. However, even regardless of whether a person is a person of faith, it’s highly valuable to note that the body’s energy vortices or ‘chakras’ correspond to and are connected to specific areas of the body and their functions, and when they become blocked or imbalanced, our energy cannot flow freely which compromises our health or at least our vitality and esteem. This is an example of Laws of Nature. 

Dating

This is a subject matter which all my friends constantly ask me about, including older adults, so why not blog about it.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" "Are you dating anyone?"

"No"

"Why? Why not? Why NOT? WHY WHY?"

To start off, let's clear the semantics- what's your idea of a "date"? To most, it's all about "courting" the girl; asking her out, picking her up, taking her out to lunch/dinner/whatever, paying for her everywhere you go, dropping her home......REPEAT.

1. I'm absolutely NOT going to pay to get to know someone.
2. A "date" in the above example is an unacceptable process to me because it's about COURTSHIP. A date is not going to be an acceptable route for getting to know someone. A date is a REWARD for her solidarity, depth, and maturity as a woman- her character- assessed after spending time together without a context.
3. Courtship alludes to Contexts, which often fuel expectations, and expectations, as Buddhism teaches, are one of the most prevalent causes of human suffering.
4. I don't want to download any of her emotional spiritual baggage ESPECIALLY if the relationship doesn't work out....and 'download' her energy indeed you will if you're intimate with your partner- which then references some aspects of my "Groupies" blog.

A woman is not a "prize" or an objective. The prize is a healthy union between you both as soulful lovers.

History

History as an area of study can be very useful indeed. Many times I agree it's necessary to have a common knowledge of the world and mankind. Though, it's more fascinating and productive to realize that history is created by the actions and reactions of humans; so, it might be a much better cause to study the human psyche. It is by learning about the way we function, and moreover, how to transform ourselves that history will most likely change in accord with it's creators- humans.

Yes, I can tell you where Abraham Lincoln was from, and what he did...and then, I think about what I'll have for lunch...

Lincoln lead the North to victory in the Civil War- but only was there a war because IGNORANCE was prevalent. (granted, it was long ago and we've come far in many ways spiritually). But otherwise, no ignorance = no war = no history to study and some pages "deleted" from textbooks. And ignorance, my friends, is solved by studying OURSELVES, not history.

Awards Ceremonies

AWARDS

Next up on our delusionally romanticized tour, are awards ceremonies; Oscars, Golden Globes, SAG awards, etc.

Awards Ceremonies are illusory marketing strategies. And moreover, the marketing of winners whom/that are easily awarded from the context of relativity. I've seen people win whom I wouldn't have cast in a fucking home-movie on my Mini DV camera, let alone a studio feature, and I've seen studio features win that I wouldn't have optioned and produced for Tijuana's straight-to-video market, let alone an American studio feature. This last decade's Awards Ceremonies have been like awarding the pile of dog shit that smells the most tolerable among the other piles. And what's worse, is I've even seen winners awarded over the other who deserved it more. If a movie wins an award, it's not because it's quality, it's because it was BEARABLE relative to it's other nominees....or because the Academy voted while drunk and blind folded like seem to have been doing.

Education

"Schooling takes place inside the classroom. EDUCATION takes place OUTSIDE the classroom".

Teachers can definitely be respectable. But, other than the handful who are genuinely interested in fostering youth, they'd most likely be actually DOING what they teach in the real world. But they're not, that's why they're teaching. So, why should you want to learn from SOME teachers (like that) who aren't even successful themselves? How's that supposed to be re-assuring and comforting?

Lyrics

Lyrics don't mean shit to me. If I heard a song about the enjoyment of beastiality but it had dope riffs and a catchy melody I'd still fuckin' bop my head to it. In fact, I'd rather hear lyrics that are a bunch of jumbled non-sensical "drunken" words than hear a coherent song about sunsets or whatever the fuck. Some of the most popular songs aren't analyzed lyrically.

Gun Control

Yeah, we know guns are dangerous, but let's not go blaming an inanimate object ENTIRELY for disrupting the peace. How about we address the real issue: people- you know, the species responsible for creating the the goddamn tool in the first place? A gun doesn't make itself, buy itself at Wallmart, and aim itself at people it doesn't like. That's humans. If you own a gun, you're most likely in a state of fear. Security, peace, or anything else you can think of is a reference of mind. It's not an environment that's a problem, it's the minds of it's ignorant inhabitants. Many citizens want to make gun control advances. That's a band-aid. Take away guns, and they'll use knives. No knives? Next is bats and rocks. Shit, if there were none of the above, they'd probably throw breadsticks at each other for all we know. Don't get me wrong, I'm not merely dismissing the focus of gun control, rather, I'm saying if we want gun control, we're headed the wrong direction unless we start with education(enlightening the mind of ignorance) first. Ironically, the statement "Guns don't kill people, people kill people" is accurate, but, what those people aren't recognizing is....despite that motto, people are still killing and being killed, so...PEOPLE ARE STUPID. Let's say, "Guns don't kill people, fuckin' morons with guns kill people". Now we can recognize that if a citizen who uses a firearm states "guns don't kill, people do", they have essentially sub-communicated, "I'm an idiotic hick". And there we have it.

THE ISSUE IS NOT GUN CONTROL. THE ISSUE IS SELF CONTROL.

Some quotes from my journal

"It's not so much that sex sells, it's more that horny neanderthals buy."

"Youth need educating, but parents need re-educating"

Humanity on the Brink

This is going to be a year of globally consciousness-shifting effect. Everything is, metaphorically, precariously balancing on a fence. A wise friend once said that adversity is the most potent time to discover ingenuity. To elaborate- 2012 is going going to give us the option of the “easy” way or the “hard” way; it is often the times of “darkness” and chaos that give us the previously undiscerned contrast to see the eminent “light”. Thus, I see this year as a win/win scheme; humanity either rely on the comfort of their ignorance due to unconscious insecurities and as a result fuck themselves over even further until they will do anything to reform and so will be “forced” of their own volition to develop seeking minds which will lead the collective consciousness to evolve, or perhaps we will skip that step and are on the brink of evolving anyway. In short, I think both roads ‘lead to Rome’, but only time will tell.

Ad Agencies

An ad agency's job is to write- or as it seems to be, fail to write- decent television commercials. It's not nice or smart to degrade insecure people, but it's also unacceptable for insecure people to project their garbage onto you like they do. They also need to come to terms with the fact that they are paying directors thousands of dollars a day to polish their mostly crappy ideas. They are paying the director for what he is supposed to do- give them a decent commercial.

When are ad agencies going to see the irrationality behind giving a director one of their ideas, but then preventing him from doing so whilst they empty their pockets of money. Why, when so much money is at stake, would an agency want to PAY to "shoot themselves in the foot"?

To advertising Agencies: You have selected a professional to do what you're paying him to do. Do you want a good commercial? Yes or no? If yes, then sit down in Video Villiage, sip your Starbucks lattes, stop trying to control everything, and let the director do what you are paying him over 10K a day to do. Okay? Okay.

Nobody Knows Nothin'

Nobody Knows Nothin'"- friend Howard Kotch, movie producer(2004)

(2008)
I was on the set of David Spade's show "Rules of Engagement". We were sitting on the set(a mock-up diner). I was sitting at a booth, and Spade was sitting 3 feet from me. The dialogue in this scene was actually decent and funny; Spade's character and the Indian-looking guy with the British accent were discussing a bet regarding women. The scripted dialogue went like this:

Spade: "Ok, then we have a deal".

British Guy: "Grand".

Spade: "We're in America now, so you can just say 'OK'"

(Studio Audience laughs)

British Guy: "No, you'll PAY me a Grand if I win".

(Studio Audience laughs again at funny double-connotation).

And I also laughed at this point. It was funny....until the director himself fucked it up with the most thoughtless subtext ever:

The director walked over to Spade and the cast members around him, and instructed the British Guy to say GRAND, but this time "enthusiastically and sarcastically" simultaneously.

I immediately realized(internally): "What the fuck is this director(rather, "mis-director") thinking?. If the character says it in THAT tone, it's as if the British Guy psychicly knew that Spade's next line before Spade said it so he could set him up for the mis-understanding which now won't be perceived as mis-understanding(the JOKE itself!), but just bad directing! And this guy is directing David fucking Spade!? What the fuck!?".

Western Medicine

The more I've talked to Western doctors, the less I value what they say...in MY case anyway. They throw meds at you to cover the manifestations...but it's the CAUSE that contains the segway into wisdom/solution. Here's an example:


The consensus of my 6 week skin condition and great LESSON:
1- Beverly Hills Dermatological DOCTOR- no insight, just gave me medicine which wasn't strong enough, then other medicine still not good enough...
2- General DOCTOR in Burbank said nothing more than "allergic reaction" and "stop taking all meds"....and gave me pills
3- Psychiatrist/DOCTOR at UCLA contradicted previous doctor's advice and refuted pills
4- saw alternative dermatologist who said it was something something external....nothing else to say...
4- DOCTOR affiliated with UCLA labelled externals as Exzma, gave homeopathic meds to help the manifestation
5- SPIRITUAL ALTERNATIVE HEALER.....FOUND THE CAUSE AND THE SOLUTION.
Lesson: If you want to help your EASTERN body, reduce your WESTERN mind. Don't give people in white lab coats too credit. Western medical capitalists: BITE ME.

Creativity

I firmly believe that from the highest perspective, for a true artist, the creative process must be executed with complete artistic integrity. You have been blessed with a vivid imagination for a reason: so that you can transfer you creative gifts into the material world for shared joy, but I feel, and I know other true artists can relate, that your art will not be fulfilling if you compromise any part of your organic vision based on your creative instincts. So, when I hear people say something like "Well, look what that filmmaker was able to pull off for such a low budget, wow", I think to myself "Uh...yeah, they pulled off exactly that: what they were ABLE to pull off within their circumstances. But as a finished piece, without the context, it's a very low quality film". From my perspective, what many people call "creativity" is really ingenuity encompassed by relativity. Indeed, if your mode is spontaneity, then I'd say you're definitely utilizing your creativity. But for a true artist, with a project that has a longer term higher purpose, I refuse relativity. There is no relativity. Relativity is defeat. There is your vision, and your execution. If it doesn't come out right, then I've learned to keep reminding myself that life is very much a learning process rather than always knowing. Learn your lessons when they happen, but don't make compromises...but I try not to confuse that with collaborating.

Boys to Men (ew, not the R&B group)

I've discovered that a lot of the adult population don't take youth seriously(aside from adoration). I recently was talking a very very wise spiritual teacher about the communication barriers between youth and adults. He stated, "Men and women don't take boys and girls seriously; they take other men and women seriously".

I never really thought of it so succinctly like that. I realized he was absolutely right....which is ironic, because as a result, I now don't take MEN and WOMEN seriously.

Philosophy

For the most part, I've found philosophy to be pointless. Sometimes there is indeed a very interesting perspective that very obliquely alludes to possible advice not stated, but philosophical writings seem to be a lot of statement of truth without any practical, applicable, palpable GAIN. I want knowledge that's useful and practical, whereas philosophy just seems to fill my mind with the 'noise' of other people's thoughts. No thanks.
