a half&lt;br /&gt;i practiced one of these every day...&lt;br /&gt;over the years i've practiced this many times&lt;br /&gt;and have actually taught the meditation at&lt;br /&gt;Rainbow Gatherings all over the world...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at these workshops  i've described&lt;br /&gt;the akashic records as:&lt;br /&gt;the entire history, herstory, &amp;amp; ourstory of the universe&lt;br /&gt;past, present, and future...&lt;br /&gt;Gary said he had been accessing the akashic records&lt;br /&gt;since he was 8...&lt;br /&gt;i asked if he practiced the meditations&lt;br /&gt;and he said they were just a tool&lt;br /&gt;but that once you know where to go&lt;br /&gt;you can just go there...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;what i've found is that the meditation experience&lt;br /&gt;serves to give people the context&lt;br /&gt;to accept the fact that  as children of the light&lt;br /&gt;we have complete permission&lt;br /&gt;to access the akashic record...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from my own experience&lt;br /&gt;if and when one accepts this fact&lt;br /&gt;and gives oneself permission&lt;br /&gt;one can construct ones own version of&lt;br /&gt;a creative visualization...&lt;br /&gt;at one of the workshops i gave at the first&lt;br /&gt;World Rainbow Gathering in Australia in 2000&lt;br /&gt;one of the folks took issue with&lt;br /&gt;some of the western iconography&lt;br /&gt;in the visualization&lt;br /&gt;so we constructed one that&lt;br /&gt;circumvented that concern&lt;br /&gt;and it worked just as well...&lt;br /&gt;and has become one of my favorites...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there are at least as many ways into the akashic&lt;br /&gt;as there are people...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;back in the winter of 1996-97&lt;br /&gt;the first time i went into the akashic records&lt;br /&gt;i did so just as sort of a test flight&lt;br /&gt;to make sure i'd memorized the script correctly&lt;br /&gt;so when i got in there&lt;br /&gt;and stood before the book on the alter&lt;br /&gt;facing this big black mirror&lt;br /&gt;and could finally ask a question&lt;br /&gt;i wasn't sure what to ask at first...&lt;br /&gt;then it came to me and i asked&lt;br /&gt;to be shown what the universe&lt;br /&gt;wanted me to know most...&lt;br /&gt;immediately it came back:&lt;br /&gt;"that you are loved"&lt;br /&gt;i said yeah yeah sure&lt;br /&gt;because this sounded like&lt;br /&gt;just me making something up...&lt;br /&gt;i said but tell me something more,&lt;br /&gt;expecting something more mystical&lt;br /&gt;with more bells and whistles&lt;br /&gt;but the universe said&lt;br /&gt;"you are loved"&lt;br /&gt;i asked again and the answer came back the same&lt;br /&gt;"you are loved"&lt;br /&gt;finally i decided to end the session...&lt;br /&gt;when i came out of the meditation&lt;br /&gt;and wrote out the experience&lt;br /&gt;the full weight of the significance&lt;br /&gt;of the message filled me...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the next day i went in&lt;br /&gt;and when i asked the question&lt;br /&gt;to be shown whatever the universe&lt;br /&gt;wanted me to know most...&lt;br /&gt;i was shown the moment i was invited&lt;br /&gt;to come into this universe...&lt;br /&gt;i was told that certain aspects of divinity&lt;br /&gt;had created a place that was so effective&lt;br /&gt;that they had gotten caught up in&lt;br /&gt;and stuck their own creation...&lt;br /&gt;so the universe had invited&lt;br /&gt;other aspects of divinity&lt;br /&gt;to go into this place and awaken them&lt;br /&gt;to the truth of their perdicament,&lt;br /&gt;their origins, &amp;amp; their nature...&lt;br /&gt;but this second group of "souls"&lt;br /&gt;had also gotten stuck...&lt;br /&gt;so the universe was inviting me&lt;br /&gt;among another wave of others&lt;br /&gt;to incarnate and accomplish the mission...&lt;br /&gt;i was shown the moment of my gleeful response...&lt;br /&gt;i was told that since then i had already incarnated&lt;br /&gt;1878 times...and that the first time had been as&lt;br /&gt;a doctor in the late 1700/early 1800&lt;br /&gt;not all of these incarnations were full&lt;br /&gt;some may have been brief&lt;br /&gt;and im not sure that they were all as humans&lt;br /&gt;the point of them all though was:&lt;br /&gt;first to become acclimated to this place...&lt;br /&gt;second to assess what was it&lt;br /&gt;about this process of incarnation on Earth that&lt;br /&gt;was so captivating&lt;br /&gt;that souls forgot who they really were&lt;br /&gt;and perceived themselves as&lt;br /&gt;somehow separate from divinity...&lt;br /&gt;and thirdly to then see what could be done&lt;br /&gt;to rectify the situation...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15409493-3807399577703387613?l=davidalexanderenglish.com%2Fabsolutetruth.htm'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/15409493/3807399577703387613/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=15409493&amp;postID=3807399577703387613' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/15409493/posts/default/3807399577703387613'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/15409493/posts/default/3807399577703387613'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://davidalexanderenglish.com/2008/12/accessing-akashic-record.html' title='accessing the akashic record...?'/><author><name>david alexander english</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10368443393393244380</uri><email>daenglish@gmail.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='02830729658183012374'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15409493.post-1263165180188734954</id><published>2008-11-17T20:25:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-17T22:38:55.202-08:00</updated><title type='text'>no i mean really crazy people...spiritual technology ?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://davidalexanderenglish.com/uploaded_images/IMG_0281_2-746035.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;

i have seen and interacted with&lt;br /&gt;my share over the years&lt;br /&gt;but there was something&lt;br /&gt;in this moment&lt;br /&gt;that made me think&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;of 2000 years ago&lt;br /&gt;in Palestine&lt;br /&gt;how this person would have been described&lt;br /&gt;as having an unclean spirit...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there were teachers and healers&lt;br /&gt;who wandered the land&lt;br /&gt;who were very sought after&lt;br /&gt;and respected for their ability&lt;br /&gt;and skill in healing and dealing with&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;these kinds of people&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for being able to caste out&lt;br /&gt;of a person&lt;br /&gt;an unclean spirit&lt;br /&gt;and help return that person&lt;br /&gt;to sanity...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;because in the life of a village community&lt;br /&gt;one such crazy person&lt;br /&gt;could really have a huge effect&lt;br /&gt;on the peace of the place&lt;br /&gt;and the presence of such a crazy person&lt;br /&gt;in the community could so easily be seen&lt;br /&gt;as a poor reflection on&lt;br /&gt;the welfare of the whole community&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this was of course&lt;br /&gt;before we had&lt;br /&gt;any cops to call&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; any loony bins&lt;br /&gt;to send people to&lt;br /&gt;for someone else to deal with&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;one of these groups of healers&lt;br /&gt;where an order within&lt;br /&gt;the ultra conservative Hebrew sect&lt;br /&gt;known as the Essenes associated&lt;br /&gt;with the Qumran Community&lt;br /&gt;on the Northwestern corner&lt;br /&gt;of the Dead Sea&lt;br /&gt;just up the trail from&lt;br /&gt;the ancient city of Jericho&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;these healers who wore&lt;br /&gt;long white flowing robes&lt;br /&gt;and wandered the land&lt;br /&gt;ministering to the sick&lt;br /&gt;and the lame&lt;br /&gt;and the poor in spirit&lt;br /&gt;were known as&lt;br /&gt;the Theraputae...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;their specialty was&lt;br /&gt;casting out unclean spirits&lt;br /&gt;and all forms of dis-ease&lt;br /&gt;because the absolute truth&lt;br /&gt;they were working from&lt;br /&gt;enable them to speak with authority&lt;br /&gt;in the name of god with a capital g&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;their approach was to see a&lt;br /&gt;person as a soul&lt;br /&gt;a divinely perfect aspect of god&lt;br /&gt;the creator&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the soul was inhabiting a physical body&lt;br /&gt;a body as a soul-bearer&lt;br /&gt;each soul&lt;br /&gt;a divine spark of consciousness&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;("...the lord god of hosts..." ?&lt;br /&gt;is the body the host or&lt;br /&gt;is the soul the host?&lt;br /&gt;if the soul is the host&lt;br /&gt;then what  or who is the soul hosting ?)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the idea was&lt;br /&gt;1. to be direct&lt;br /&gt;to speak directly to what might be&lt;br /&gt;afflicting the (Host?) soul &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. to remind the afflicted&lt;br /&gt;of the absolute truth&lt;br /&gt;of their ultimate existence&lt;br /&gt;in the realm of god.&lt;br /&gt;"the truth will set you free"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. to speak with divine authority&lt;br /&gt;because as children of the light&lt;br /&gt;we all have permission to do so...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to be grounded in this truth&lt;br /&gt;and act from this place of groundedness...&lt;br /&gt;imagine being so sure of the reality&lt;br /&gt;of your relationship&lt;br /&gt;with the creator...that you could speak with authority&lt;br /&gt;or "THE WORD"&lt;br /&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;THE DIVINE VIBRATION&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after years of time spent&lt;br /&gt;in the wilderness&lt;br /&gt;of the soul&lt;br /&gt;facing the nature of ones own&lt;br /&gt;being as a human&lt;br /&gt;and divine spark&lt;br /&gt;overcoming&lt;br /&gt;and dispelling the illusions&lt;br /&gt;of ones own "demons"&lt;br /&gt;and undergoing all manner&lt;br /&gt;of initiations to trigger&lt;br /&gt;what can be triggered&lt;br /&gt;and humble what there is&lt;br /&gt;

/&gt;it remembers&lt;br /&gt;everything&lt;br /&gt;it comes in contact with&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the electromagnetic pulses&lt;br /&gt;of the human heart&lt;br /&gt;are enough&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

water....................................!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for me&lt;br /&gt;the implications are&lt;br /&gt;our goal ought to be:&lt;br /&gt;to create&lt;br /&gt;a more loving world&lt;br /&gt;for all life...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;they did this experiment where they filled&lt;br /&gt;two clear glass &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;beakers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;with sludge, a "waste" product from oil drilling&lt;br /&gt;that is a solution of thick oil and water&lt;br /&gt;they set a device against one of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;beakers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that emitted subtle electromagnetic energy&lt;br /&gt;about the same as that emitted by the human heart&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; within 7 days the water&lt;br /&gt;had completely separated out&lt;br /&gt;from the oil in the test sample...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that night after watching this DVD&lt;br /&gt;i dreamed deep&lt;br /&gt;and was very conscious in my sleep&lt;br /&gt;this notion emerged that&lt;br /&gt;perhaps it is the water in our brains&lt;br /&gt;that holds our memories&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;given that each of us are over two thirds water&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;perhaps it is through this water&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; its connection to all water&lt;br /&gt;which holds the memory of the history of the planet&lt;br /&gt;the solar system, and the cosmos&lt;br /&gt;that we access&lt;br /&gt;the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;akashic&lt;/span&gt; record&lt;br /&gt;the entire history, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;herstory&lt;/span&gt;,&lt;br /&gt;our story of the universe&lt;br /&gt;past, present, and future...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the phrase "water is life"&lt;br /&gt;played around in my mind in my sleep&lt;br /&gt;as i felt this connectedness to all water&lt;br /&gt;through my thoughts &amp;amp; the ideas&lt;br /&gt;that perhaps the water was giving to me ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it is our destiny&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; homework&lt;br /&gt;to practice being&lt;br /&gt;more conscious...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we have had the opportunity&lt;br /&gt;to practice unconsciousness&lt;br /&gt;as a society&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; have found out the hard way&lt;br /&gt;where that leads time and time again...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;pollution of the water is a function&lt;br /&gt;of this unconsciousness&lt;br /&gt;an outward expression&lt;br /&gt;of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;unlovingness&lt;/span&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;an ignorance&lt;br /&gt;of the basic truth of our existence:&lt;br /&gt;that we are all connected&lt;br /&gt;everything is connected&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; effected&lt;br /&gt;by everything else...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the reason we pollute&lt;br /&gt;physically &amp;amp; psychically&lt;br /&gt;is fear...? greed is fear? anger is fear?&lt;br /&gt;the crystalline structure of water&lt;br /&gt;that has absorbed fear is dire, drastic,&lt;br /&gt;chaotic...even disturbing to look at...&lt;br /&gt;yet how much time in our day are we&lt;br /&gt;motivated by fear, doubt, anger,&lt;br /&gt;or carelessness...the desire not to care...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;afraid of being held responsible for our actions&lt;br /&gt;afraid of having to be conscious&lt;br /&gt;of having to awaken...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;bringing oneself to a conscious awareness&lt;br /&gt;of love, gratitude,&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp;/or the divine&lt;br /&gt;the ever presence&lt;br /&gt;the holy spirit&lt;br /&gt;the spirit of holiness&lt;br /&gt;structures the water&lt;br /&gt;of which we are made&lt;br /&gt;into beautiful fluid&lt;br /&gt;crystalline sacred geometric harmonies...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it occurred to me&lt;br /&gt;that global harmony can be achieved&lt;br /&gt;as we make this awareness a&lt;br /&gt;personal priority...&lt;br /&gt;the difference one person can make&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it is the souls mission&lt;br /&gt;to choose consciousness&lt;br /&gt;over

all seen them do&lt;br /&gt;it's feet up at the sky&lt;br /&gt;lolling on the pavement&lt;br /&gt;in the middle of the road&lt;br /&gt;as if it were on the living room carpet&lt;br /&gt;rolling over first on one side&lt;br /&gt;then rolling back over to the other&lt;br /&gt;trying to find that right comfy posture...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you could hear the ocean waves&lt;br /&gt;crashing in the distance...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the occasional city bus&lt;br /&gt;passing on the cross street&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;even see the headlights of a car&lt;br /&gt;waiting at the traffic light 2 blocks away&lt;br /&gt;but no cars coming up this street...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the silence&lt;br /&gt;the quiet of the city was precious&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; precise...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;all the sleeping people&lt;br /&gt;spinning their dreams&lt;br /&gt;into the universe of a night on earth...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the cat&lt;br /&gt;was black&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; in&lt;br /&gt;no hurry&lt;br /&gt;or worry...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;what are we to make of this...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

kicked us out&lt;br /&gt;at closing time...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;she calls&lt;br /&gt;out of the blue&lt;br /&gt;every once in a while&lt;br /&gt;usually from somewhere in the southwest&lt;br

desire to have a positive impact&lt;br /&gt;on the future of the world...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;once a long time ago&lt;br /&gt;there was a beautiful young woman&lt;br /&gt;walking through the

fell over backwards in the dust&lt;br /&gt;laughing at the irony&lt;br /&gt;turns out the dogs name was&lt;br /&gt;"...Mystery..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a girl named Destiny&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; a

border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so after writing 'til 5am&lt;br /&gt;i get to sleep&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; get woken up by my old friend Bob&lt;br /&gt;knocking on the door at 11:30 am&lt;br /&gt;to say i'm gonna get a ticket&lt;br /&gt;so i'm up&lt;br /&gt;out the door&lt;br /&gt;down the ally&lt;br /&gt;turn the corner&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; running up the street&lt;br /&gt;in time to watch&lt;br /&gt;the donut patrol&lt;br /&gt;place&lt;br /&gt;ever so casually&lt;br /&gt;under my windshield wiper&lt;br /&gt;my second street cleaning parking ticket this week&lt;br /&gt;...good morning...&lt;br /&gt;that will be $50...&lt;br /&gt;would you like fries with that...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the first ticket was when&lt;br /&gt;i did a live painting performance&lt;br /&gt;at an art party in downtown LA last week&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; at the same time&lt;br /&gt;had my bike with the bike rack still attached&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; locked to it&lt;br /&gt;ripped off&lt;br /&gt;stolen from off the front of the car...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the good thing is my beautiful yellow bus&lt;br /&gt;looks better without that pesky bike rack on the front&lt;br /&gt;the thief was kind enough to leave his own broken bike&lt;br /&gt;with the seat  &amp;amp; handle bars still warm&lt;br /&gt;laying on the sidewalk next to the bus...&lt;br /&gt;after all what would he do with 2 bikes&lt;br /&gt;must not be too greedy...&lt;br /&gt;(i used it to ride around looking for the bike rack&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; left it back on the sidewalk....so if you need one&lt;br /&gt;it's on the corner of Broadway &amp;amp; hurrmppfff )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; then  find out from the woman&lt;br /&gt;i'd loaned my other bike to&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; asked for it back 4 months ago&lt;br /&gt;that   it had been stolen 3 months ago...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this was the bike that was on the front of the bus&lt;br /&gt;coming back  in the dark&lt;br /&gt;from Burning Man last year on the 395&lt;br /&gt;when i hit the deer&lt;br /&gt;that was knocked into my lane&lt;br /&gt;by the oncoming fresh-off-the-lot white pickup truck...&lt;br /&gt;i had to drag her broken deer body still warm&lt;br /&gt;out of the road so no one else would hit her...&lt;br /&gt;the wheels of the bike were bent &amp;amp; wobbly&lt;br /&gt;marked with deer medicine:&lt;br /&gt;gentleness...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this all comes in the context of&lt;br /&gt;the events of last month&lt;br /&gt;when after having lived on the block&lt;br /&gt;for over 10 years&lt;br /&gt;out of the blue&lt;br /&gt;i go out the day before street cleaning&lt;br /&gt;to move the bus&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; it's gone&lt;br /&gt;i rode around on my bike looking for it&lt;br /&gt;thinking i must have somehow forgot where i put it&lt;br /&gt;i even chided myself for being so absorb in the work&lt;br /&gt;that i forgot where i put my car&lt;br /&gt;i finally accept the fact that it's gone&lt;br /&gt;along with the suitcase of one of a kind manuscripts&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; call to report it stolen...&lt;br /&gt;find out they towed it from the middle of the block&lt;br /&gt;for being parked in the same spot&lt;br /&gt;for longer than 72 hours...&lt;br /&gt;because one of my neighbors&lt;br /&gt;a really nice Scottish tenor/math tutor&lt;br /&gt;with a pomegranate tree in his yard&lt;br /&gt;he planted 25 years ago  from seed&lt;br /&gt;had been complaining of&lt;br /&gt;boardwalk vendors parking storage vehicles on the street&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i try not to drive much&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; use my bike...used my bike to get around...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;$300 to the LAPD&lt;br /&gt;to get back my bus...&lt;br /&gt;so i can put  up the artwork the next day&lt;br /&gt;at AGAPE Spiritual Center&lt;br /&gt;for their next 3 month artshow...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so today i wait 'til noon in a&lt;br /&gt;"hey we'll leave you alone after noon on Monday" space&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at 6 minutes 'til noon&lt;br /&gt;the parking enforcement rolls by again&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; keeps on rolling as i'm sitting in the drivers seat...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then i stroll to the boardwalk&lt;br /&gt;to kinda see if there might be a space for me to set up&lt;br /&gt;not that i feel like working out there any more&lt;br /&gt;it has not been working on many levels for months...&lt;br /&gt;after a while i had to ask what's the best use of my time&lt;br /&gt;all the signs are pointing at some sort of graduation...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;gotta move out in two weeks&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; need to finish writing the autobiography&lt;br /&gt;that i've been working on since Christmas&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp;  as of this morning i'm finally up to the summer of '06&lt;br /&gt;just a year &amp;amp; a half left to write about...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now i've kind of gotten my self in a pickle&lt;br /&gt;it's just been confirmed that the boardwalk&lt;br /&gt;as we've all come to know it&lt;br /&gt;will be ending on may 10th&lt;br /&gt;as it goes through yet another&lt;br /&gt;in a long series of convulsions&lt;br /&gt;of being screwed up&lt;br /&gt;by the people  that work in offices&lt;br /&gt;that have no idea what makes the boardwalk work&lt;br /&gt;but think they do&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; have the power to work their will&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; make others deal with their view of reality...&lt;br /&gt;until the next convulsion...&lt;br /&gt;this time it's a federal judge&lt;br /&gt;who loves performers&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; has given 200 spaces on the boardwalk to performance&lt;br /&gt;when there are 20 performers&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; 103 spaces to every one else&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; there are several hundred of those depending on the season...&lt;br /&gt;everything in the performance spaces must be by donation only&lt;br /&gt;threat of $500 tickets for violation&lt;br /&gt;(except books, CD's , &amp;amp; DVD's of &amp;amp; by the performer&lt;br /&gt;so maybe if i could afford an inventory&lt;br /&gt;of the 7 books i've published since Sept.&lt;br /&gt;i could then make out)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so if someone comes up &amp;amp; wants to take your work for nothing&lt;br /&gt;the judge is saying you have to give it to them...&lt;br /&gt;can you say l a w s u i t...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so&lt;br /&gt;end of that income&lt;br /&gt;not that it has been working&lt;br /&gt;but no new income coming...&lt;br /&gt;no new doors opening&lt;br /&gt;to take care of the immediate concerns&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; owing a serious chunk of change,&lt;br /&gt;more than i ever have,&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; two parking tickets&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; new registration&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; Hawaii drivers license renewal&lt;br /&gt;have to move out on may 1st...&lt;br /&gt;where to store all the paintings&lt;br /&gt;bus needs a new battery &amp;amp; a tune up&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; where am i going?&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; with what...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in an effort to finish the book&lt;br /&gt;i've gotten into this odd time cycle&lt;br /&gt;by writing all night 'til 5am&lt;br /&gt;then trying to get 6-8 hours&lt;br /&gt;then jumping back into it as soon as i wake up...&lt;br /&gt;so i've been writing 12 to 15 hours a day&lt;br /&gt;for the better part of the past 2 weeks...&lt;br /&gt;before that i was writing from&lt;br /&gt;when i came in from the boardwalk 5- 7pm&lt;br /&gt;until 3-5 am...for 3 months...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this is the context in which i wrote the words:&lt;br /&gt;"the path with heart&lt;br /&gt;the true path&lt;br /&gt;is beyond&lt;br /&gt;fear..."&lt;br /&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;over the weekend i noticed this line in my right hand&lt;br /&gt;i had never seen before&lt;br /&gt;this big strait-as -a -ruler line&lt;br /&gt;from the nexus of lines at my lower palm to my pinky&lt;br /&gt;i looked it up on the web&lt;br /&gt;says the pinky is the Mercury finger&lt;br /&gt;a line like that could mean issues to do with&lt;br /&gt;health, commerce, &amp;amp;/or communications&lt;br /&gt;business opportunities...&lt;br /&gt;getting ones message out to the world...&lt;br /&gt;i don't usually pay attentions to such things&lt;br /&gt;but dang this line is like a big&lt;br /&gt;"what the F*****K is that" thing&lt;br /&gt;...am i gonna live doc am i gonna live...????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so i ask a friend who is a "hand analyst"&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; she confirms what it says on the web...&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; that the fact that it's happening&lt;br /&gt;while i'm typing the book&lt;br /&gt;is the key...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so then i read this thing she writes to me&lt;br /&gt;about this being all for me to get the point&lt;br /&gt;or the cherry of this process...&lt;br /&gt;because as i get the point of this process&lt;br /&gt;then i can best share it with the world...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; it suddenly occurs to me&lt;br /&gt;that i may just be doing this whole thing for my self...&lt;br /&gt;?????????&lt;br /&gt;that had not occurred to me...&lt;br /&gt;i was thinking i was creating something of benefit&lt;br /&gt;to others&lt;br /&gt;but that could be a conceit...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as i came back to my room the gentle man&lt;br /&gt;across the hall&lt;br /&gt;apologized to me...&lt;br /&gt;i had to ask for what...&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; he said that he had had a relapse...&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; i said at what...&lt;br /&gt;he said he thought it had been hardest on me...&lt;br /&gt;that he basically lock himself in his room&lt;br /&gt;the past few weeks doing coke...&lt;br /&gt;i said i had no idea..he was surprised i didn't notice...&lt;br /&gt;not that i know this man but to say hello in the hall&lt;br /&gt;he's an old  rock /jazz drummer&lt;br /&gt;he stays up late but then so do i...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; i thought what's the difference in a way&lt;br /&gt;i have also been sequestering my self in a room&lt;br /&gt;immersed in me &amp;amp; my life from beginning to end&lt;br /&gt;top to bottom...reexamining the facts as i see them...&lt;br /&gt;how odd i have been so consumed in the same way as this man&lt;br /&gt;with my own little drama that i've put the world on hold&lt;br /&gt;'til i'm done...recording my navel gazing...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it occurs to me how odd&lt;br /&gt;what a weird coincidence&lt;br /&gt;we're both responding to the same vibe&lt;br /&gt;to use this time to focus&lt;br /&gt;with focused blindness&lt;br /&gt;our full attention on the chosen task...&lt;br /&gt;ok so who influenced who...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i know the universe loves me&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; is taking very good care of me&lt;br /&gt;the reason i wrote that line about the true path&lt;br /&gt;is that focusing on &amp;amp; executing the completion of this project&lt;br /&gt;has been where the light is...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but then i suppose the coke addict&lt;br /&gt;would say the same about getting &amp;amp; doing more coke...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;even though i've described this process&lt;br /&gt;to whomever would listen as&lt;br /&gt;feeling like performing abdominal surgery on yourself&lt;br /&gt;without  benefit of anesthesia&lt;br /&gt;your hands all up in there covered in you&lt;br /&gt;as you reach around groping up in there&lt;br /&gt;trying to put your bloody finger on it&lt;br /&gt;grasp at it &amp;amp; finally &amp;amp; definitively grasp it&lt;br /&gt;...bring it out into the light&lt;br /&gt;for the world to see &amp;amp; take a good look at...&lt;br /&gt;'til you get it all out...all of it...the heck out...&lt;br /&gt;not done 'til you do...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i wrote to a friend that&lt;br /&gt;"i am so far into this now&lt;br /&gt;that the only way out&lt;br /&gt;is through..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but really i have felt in the moments&lt;br /&gt;when i'm working on this&lt;br /&gt;that i'm moving forward...&lt;br /&gt;getting it done&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; having it done is the yummy part&lt;br /&gt;full of light...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;make your own light ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;while everything else feels like it's&lt;br /&gt;falling away&lt;br /&gt;dark&lt;br /&gt;yukky&lt;br /&gt;or just&lt;br /&gt;done...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;interesting place to find oneself&lt;br /&gt;wonder what comes next...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well here's another gem from the vault of davidismz&lt;br /&gt;that may apply here:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"...the closer&lt;br /&gt;we get&lt;br /&gt;to the truth&lt;br /&gt;the easier&lt;br /&gt;it is&lt;br /&gt;to kid&lt;br /&gt;our&lt;br /&gt;selves..."&lt;br /&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the fact that i'm meeting the challenges&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; resistance&lt;br /&gt;at the end of the hall...the end of the project&lt;br /&gt;may mean i'm closing in on the goal...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; deluding myself at the same time...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ahh the splendid paradox&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;what brilliance &amp;amp; genius loves to squish between the toes&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ahh &amp;amp; here we come to it&lt;br /&gt;my attachment&lt;br /&gt;is&lt;br /&gt;to recognition&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;of brilliance &amp;amp; genius...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i've been seeking this my whole life&lt;br /&gt;through everything i've done&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yet recently when i've heard people express&lt;br /&gt;that recognition&lt;br /&gt;i've missed it&lt;br /&gt;i haven't entirely taken it in&lt;br /&gt;in part because i feel i haven't yet arrived&lt;br /&gt;because if i had surely&lt;br /&gt;fame &amp;amp; fortune&lt;br /&gt;wealth &amp;amp; prosperity&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; financial independence&lt;br /&gt;would follow...&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; ease lest we not forget ease...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but as i go down that list&lt;br /&gt;i feel in a way&lt;br /&gt;i already have all that at this very moment&lt;br /&gt;i am famous &amp;amp; fortunate&lt;br /&gt;wealthy &amp;amp; prosperous&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; financially independent&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; living in the red...&lt;br /&gt;not a clue where it comes from next&lt;br /&gt;as usual&lt;br /&gt;yet knowing&lt;br /&gt;from experience&lt;br /&gt;it comes from within&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; the universe&lt;br /&gt;would not leave me hanging&lt;br /&gt;unless&lt;br /&gt;there was some&lt;br /&gt;good to it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now if i was living in the black?&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; had all my bases covered money wise&lt;br /&gt;then ease&lt;br /&gt;would be just multiplied&lt;br /&gt;because i already feel like&lt;br /&gt;i got the ease thing going on&lt;br /&gt;any more laid back &amp;amp; i'll be laying on the ground&lt;br /&gt;i would feel all confident &amp;amp; justified in my choices&lt;br /&gt;instead of the netherworld &amp;amp; free fall&lt;br /&gt;the queasiness &amp;amp; uneasiness   &lt;br /&gt;of unsure &amp;amp; insecure &amp;amp; self doubt&lt;br /&gt;about how it all will work out&lt;br /&gt;without an ouch somewhere in there...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as i look it appears i may be finding myself in retreat&lt;br /&gt;while feeling like it's time to advance&lt;br /&gt;but how to advance...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh then there's worry&lt;br /&gt;the proof of the path is in it's fruits&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"by their fruits ye shall know them"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i thought&lt;br /&gt;if what i was doing was a good thing&lt;br /&gt;it would be generating&lt;br /&gt;light &amp;amp; wealth&lt;br /&gt;not parking tickets, bills, &amp;amp; dead ends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but the bottom line is&lt;br /&gt;it feels so blessedly good to be letting die what needs to&lt;br /&gt;right now...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;worry is there &amp;amp; as worry will it is biting at my butt&lt;br /&gt;but if there is one thing i know how to do&lt;br /&gt;if there is one thing this life has taught me so far&lt;br /&gt;it's  how to live well&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; worry too...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;how to be a good worrier...(warrior? no worrier)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i got this one&lt;br /&gt;step back&lt;br /&gt;lemme at it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;recently i was told  in an accusing way&lt;br /&gt;that i was too self absorbed&lt;br /&gt;this by someone i've known for 15 years&lt;br /&gt;as one of the most self absorbed people&lt;br /&gt;i've ever met&lt;br /&gt;totally dedicated to her path&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; consumed with her journey...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but in pondering the blessed accusation&lt;br /&gt;examining it for merit&lt;br /&gt;if one is to be the thing itself&lt;br /&gt;the genuine article&lt;br /&gt;how do you give your work your all&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; not be self absorbed&lt;br /&gt;how do you be the work...live the work&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; not be...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from my experience&lt;br /&gt;the path is not even about being loved&lt;br /&gt;getting love or keeping love&lt;br /&gt;but being love&lt;br /&gt;enough&lt;br /&gt;to complete the mission&lt;br /&gt;no matter what&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; the mission is life&lt;br /&gt;the mission is to do what one is born to do&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;if that's being self absorbed &lt;br /&gt;then that&lt;br /&gt;would be me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;life of the artist...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thank you&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;love&lt;br /&gt;d&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try
