Better Than Chicken

RIP Jose Arguelles (1939-2011)

2011-03-23T19:54:00.000-07:00

Jose Arguelles, author of The Mayan Factor and authority of Mayan mathematics and calendrics. Born on Jupiter day 1/24, 1939. Also known as Valun Votan.

Jose Arguelles, one of the great authorities on the Mayan Calendar and organizer of the 1987 Harmonic Convergence Festivals, has passed at the age of 72 after a short illness.

Mr. Arguelles was my first mentor on my journey of discovering the secrets of the Maya. His groundbreaking book, The Mayan Factor, was the first publication related to the Mayan Calendar that I read back in 1998. Although many of his works and ideas are sources of controversy, Arguelles is still responsible for making millions aware of the grandeur of Mayan culture. If it wasn't for Jose Arguelles, I would have never been interested in the Mayan Calendar, ancient astronauts, synchromysticism, or countless other esoteric subjects.

His work on Earth is complete. It is time for my departed friend to help bring the Mayan Calendar to a close and to guide people to a new age of Cosmic Consciousness from the spirit realm. He has returned to the Light of God to finish the fulfillment of the promise of an enlightened world at the end of time.

In'Lakesh, Master Arguelles. We will finish what you began. We shall meet soon.

Activation of Kubrick's Odyssey Dawn

2011-03-20T14:13:00.000-07:00

Day Cycle 1 of the Mayan Calenderic Universal Underworld began on 3/9/11. Two days later, the Sendai quake rocked Japan on an 11/11 time marker. 8 days later, the United States declared an ad hoc war on the country of Libya. Ladies and gentlemen, we are now at war with THREE Middle Eastern countries: Iraq, Afghanistan, and now, Libya...with Iran still within salivatory range of the global elite.

The Allied military conflict has been dubbed, Odyssey Dawn.

Once again, in his grand opus, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Stanley Kubrick proves that he had inside knowledge regarding the esoteric and alchemical transformation of humankind, as planned by an agent of supremely intelligent design.

Please refer to the pics below:

Kubrick's space odyssey begins with a specific solar/galactic alignment, most likely in the 7th Day Cycle of the Mayan Familial Underworld, which is the DAWN OF MAN.

The dawn of man is the rise of Australopithecus, the early ape-man and user of tools. They are the first hominoid to display modern cognitive abilities. It is also the DAWN of man's ODYSSEY to becoming supra-conscious. It is the first appearance of the black materia monolith, the Force of intelligent design.

Kubrick jump cuts the next 40 million years of human history in one frame of film...right into the 7th Day of the Galactic Underworld, which began 11/3/10. The date 2001 is really an anagram for 2010 (!!). (Photo courtesy: Gazpachot http://gazpachot.blogspot.com/)

Humans in the Galactic Underworld control weaponized space, work in space stations and have been to the moon. People use videophones (similar to Skype and FaceTime) and enjoy space tourism (Virgin Galactic/Pan Am, anyone?).

Astronauts on the moon discover a black monolith buried for millions of years. Upon touching the monolith, it is reactivated, sending a massive signal towards the planet Jupiter/Zeus, the ruler of (en)light(en)ning.

The eerily friendly IBM/HAL 9000 supercomputer that runs the Jupiter mission is perfected in 2001/2010 Galactic Underworld, with a flawless service record. Fearing its own survival, HAL becomes a jeopardy to the mission, once it realizes that it has erred for the first time and attempts to destroy the crew of spaceship Discovery One. Notice the blue beams above the center of red eye and black monolithic panel.

Similarly friendly-voiced supercomputer, IBM/HAL Watson, proves its superior intelligence on the show JEOPARDY, shortly before the Inception of the Universal Underworld. Notice the blue beams above the earthlike eye and monolith shape...

Lone survivor Bowman deactivates HAL, arrives at Jupiter and experiences an extreme increase in vibratory energy as the Mayan Calendar ends. Bowman then experiences the horror of the destruction of ego-based consciousness and is reborn the as the blue godchild/starchild.

Another solar/galactic alignment at the end of the Mayan Calendar. Even the supreme intelligence (the monolith) itself is aligned with Jupiter and its moons.

It's worth noting that the monolith was named Anomaly TMA-1 which numerically is 20-13-1-1. Is this a hidden 1/1/2013 code? It would make sense since the Mayan Calendar ends in 2011 and the completion of universal co-creation occurs in 2012. 20 and 13 are the master base numbers of the Mayan Calendar. Could the dawn of the starchild occur on 1/1/2013?

DAWN and WAND are interchangeable. The tarot suit of WANDs symbolize thoughts manifesting into reality. It is the essence of super-conscious co-creation and the completion of reality. Kubrick's Odyssey is coming true. We have created artificial intelligence (also the title of Kubrick's unfinished project) and the monolith of supreme consciousness is now activated. Events and vibrations will increase as both the individual and the mass-collective egos are dissolved. All I can say is hold on to your dearest ones and keep your spirits up. The Mayan Calendar is close to completion and things will push us to the brink of understanding. Spread love and goodness everywhere. Remove negative and unnecessary distractions, situations, people from your lives. This Underworld is extremely short, less than 250 days now. It is the Dawn of our last Odyssey.

WANDs / DAWNs

Namaste.

Love.

Saint

Many thanks to Jay Weidner for his exhaustive research on Kubrick's alchemical symbolism. I consider him the authority on Kubrick and without his notes and inspiration this blog post would be far more difficult to write. Jay has a new DVD release called "Kubrick's Odyssey" which is available now. I plan to get a copy. So should you. You can purchase the DVD here.

Japan Disaster Update

2011-03-12T10:38:00.000-08:00

Firstly, I want to express my thoughts and prayers to the people of Japan. In the wake of a massive 8.9 quake, a subsequent tsunami and now a possible nuclear meltdown of a power plant, it is difficult to grasp the immense destruction, loss of life and critical situation the country is going through. Although it's easy to analyse (from a safe distance) the greater meanings of these earth changes in light of the upcoming end of the Mayan Calendar, in no way do I attempt to diminish the tragedy on the individual or collective level. I'm very sure the Japanese are not thinking about the Mayan Calendar right now. So, again, every fiber of my being goes out with love and sympathy to the people of Japan in light of this extreme crisis.

With this said, the Sendai earthquake and tsunami occurred 2 days after the beginning of Day 1 of the Mayan Universal Underworld time cycle, the 9th and final timewave of the Mayan Calendar. The event happened on a 11:11 time marker (3/11/11) and was located at 38.322 N 142.369 E. 142 is a variation of the Jupiter numbers 1,4, and 2. Jupiter is the living embodiment of base consciousness evolving into Christ Consciousness, as mentioned multiple times in this blog.

The location of the Sendai quake of 2011. The land mass on the left is coastal Japan. Up close, Norther Japan looks eerily like America with the Florida-like peninsula and Texan gulf.

The Japanese topography of the Sendai quake in the Universal Underworld harkens the location of the Yucatan Chichxulub mass-extinction event of the Mammilian Underworld (above--green arrow) and the BP Oil Disaster of the Galactic Underworld (above-A).

It is important to realize that the mass extinction events of ancient times occurred only a few times in millions or even billions of years. The Universal Underworld is 20^8 times more accelerated than the Cellular Underworld and 20 times more than the most recent Galactic Underworld. This means we could be witnessing dozens of mass-extinction events every few weeks, or even days in this present age.

Recap of Mayan Underworld time cycles.

Mass-extinction events do not necessarily mean destructive natural events, although they definitely meet this category. Extinction events are all indicative to events that chip away and eventually destroy both the individual and collective ego consciousness. The earth is a living being, so it, too, is suffering. The decay of the planet's ego consciousness is causing weather anomalies and intense natural disasters. The Earth is transforming into an new entity through processes that are beyond comprehension. It's birth pangs wreak havoc for trillions of humans, animals and living entities.

The stripping of the ego in order to make room for enlightened Christ/Cosmic Consciousness requires cleansing and transformation on multiple levels. In an earlier post, I breakdown what we have been experiencing in the Galactic Underworld. Now that we have crossed into the final time cycle of the Universal Underworld, the following apocalyptic events will happen with greater frequency until the Mayan Calendar ends in 2011 with the completion and perfection of co-creation:

Individual: Illnesses, Disease, Anomalous Symptoms, Depression, Anxiety, Loss of Relationships or Work, Lack of Communication, Victimization, Economic Difficulty, Weight Loss or Gain, Death or Suicide.

Local: Upswings in Crime, Riots, Weather Instability, Police Brutality, Blackouts, Traffic Accidents, Fires, Graffiti, Layoffs. Lack of Cooperation between authorities and citizens.

Regional: State Bankruptcies, Factory Closings, Corruption, Tax Increases, Political Controversies, Immigration Problems, Tax Revolts, Factory Recalls, Educational Failures, Challenging of Legal Rights.

National: Economic Recessions and Depressions, Monetary Devaluation, Wars, Terrorism, Racial Unrest, Assassinations, State-Sponsored Surveillance, Infringement on Rights, Pandemics.

Planetary: Record-Breaking Weather Patterns and Disasters, Nuclear Proliferation, Solar Flares and Severe EMF disruptions, Global Warming/Cooling, Environmental Destruction, Species Extinction, Volcanic Distruption, Extraterrestrial Contact and/or Disclosure, Births/Deaths of Stars and Planets

Galactic: Planetary Alignments, Supernovas, Black Holes, Interstellar Collisions, Extrasolar Discoveries.

Universal: Complete Dimensional Shifts, Gravitational Contraction of the Universe, Alternate and Parallel Realities, Quantitative Changes in Time and Light, Evolutionary Transformations.

3D physical survival might not be possible as we go through these immense changes. However, the important thing to hold on to is that WE are here at this moment of time. WE have chosen to experience this world, long before we were born, so that we can embrace the completion of creation and the graduation to infinite existence. Our human bodies are dirty, limited and flawed. Our collective egos are polluted with inner chatter, criticism and judgement. I, for one, cannot wait until I leave this body. I know I have a joyous, thrilling adventure ahead. You should feel the same. Be prepared. Protect yourself and your loved ones. Do your spiritual homework.

Apocalyptic, revelatory, and mass-extinctual events are all part of God's plan. Even though our society is at the brink, there is still hope. Hold on to your faith and hold on to love. I stress again for everyone to freely love each other and let go of limiting destructive behavior. It's not too late but time is running out.

Inception of the Universal Mind Part 2: The Catharsis of Humanity

2011-03-09T22:27:00.000-08:00

"And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made."

--Genesis 2:2 (aka 11:11)

On November 3, 2011, the truculent and disquieting Mayan Calendric 6^th Night of the Galactic Underworld finally came to an end. The termination of this timewave has given way to the 7^th and Final Day of the Galactic Underworld as well as the 1st Day of the Universal Underworld, which begins today, March 9, 2011. I have written at length in previous posts regarding the immense psychological pressure and almost unbearable emotional densification of human consciousness during this time. If you are reading this blog, I wish you my most deep-felt congratulations. You are a survivor. You have passed one of the most critical tests you will ever endure in your life. You are officially an initiate to the great mysteries (and great revelations to come)!

To summarize, the Galactic Underworld is the 8^th Wave of the Mayan Calendar. There are plenty of detailed sources online on how the calendar is integrated. However to summarize, the Mayan base-20 (or vigedecimal) mathematical system has been able to calculate solar and lunar cycles going back as far as 16.4 billion years ago. Based on this information, the Mayans have extrapolated the progression of conscious evolution into nine progressively accelerated timewaves, or Underworlds. Each timewave is 20 times more intensified than the last.

The 9 Underworld Waves of the Mayan Calendar. We have begun the final Underworld, the Galactic on 3/9/11. Note how the Cellular Cycle (Underworld) is divided equally into 13 periods of alternating days and nights. All Underworlds are divided this way.

Each underworld is divided into 13 periods, 7 “days” and 6 “nights”. Mayan shamans and high priests could predict times of turmoil, revelation and anxiety during these “nights”, as well as times of illumination and transformation during the “days”. As the calendar progresses, not only does time accelerate but also the state of living energy and consciousness. During the beginning of the calendar, progress was extremely slow. In the first Underworld, the Cellular, it took hundreds of millions of years during the first “day” cycle for simple molecules to combine into basic proteins and cells.

In comparison, the first “day” cycle of the 8^th Underworld, the Galactic, was essentially the year 1999. It is the year of the Euro, which forever changed global economics. Films, like The Matrix, The Phantom Menace and Fight Club ushered in a new era of digital movie making. The Columbine Massacre made the world aware of escalating hyperviolence in children. Napster becomes the world’s most massive file-sharing program (the first true example of global digital consciousness). Apple released its first laptop. Woodstock has its revival concert, reseeding the Summer of Love to Gen X’ers. The world celebrated its 6 billionth human and prepared to celebrate the year 2000 and the new millennium to come. The Galactic Underworld is only 12.8 years in length yet 20^7 times more accelerated than the Cellular Underworld!

The Galactic Underworld is the first true post-internet era of mankind. It is an era in which biological consciousness begins to unify with digital consciousness. Social breakthroughs such as iPhones, Facebook, and YouTube have contributed to the global technological mind. However this era is replete with paradigms that were unfathomable 20 years ago: global terrorism, torture porn, homeland Gestapo(strike) securitization, mainstream sexualization of children, sodomographic mind control in television programming, chemtrails, financial collapse, and much more.

We are now approaching the end of the Galactic Underworld. After 6 Day cycles and 6 Night cycles, the 7^th Day begins, and will continue when ALL 9 waves complete in 2011 (not 2012). I'll come back to the 2011 vs. 2012 completion date in a future post.

"And after three days and a half, the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them that saw them."

--(Revelations 11:11)

The intensification of human consciousness, the alchemical process of turning the lead of the flesh into the gold of the spirit, becomes multiplied and amplified today, March 9, 2011 (long count = 12.19.18.3.7). Today marks the beginning of the 9th and Final wave of the Mayan Calendar: The Universal Underworld. It is here that the energies will now start to flow through us with extreme prejudice. The end of the calendar is very soon and sensitive people will feel a strong urge for spiritual cleansing, lifestyle makeovers, spiritual vision quests, meditation, change of diet and so forth.

Human beings who are truly ready for spiritual advancement, enlightenment, peace, and divine inceptive co-creation, must begin the process NOW to strip as much identity linked to the ego as possible. The remaining 260 days will pass very, very quickly. Those who have been preparing for conscious ascension for some time will find it very easy to embrace the process of shedding the ego by embracing the ever-present now. Those who are just getting with the program will find the process much more challenging. However, latecomers still have a chance.

The above quote from Revelations is quite poignant. The mention of 3 days and a half could be a reference to an Underworld (most likely the Universal) in which some mass enlightening event happens. A worldwide 9/11, perhaps, which forever changes human consciousness. An event so revelatory that it is a divine, pure truth. This truth may trigger the instantaneous acceptance of a divine, Christlike consciousness. If this event were to take place in our current Universal Underworld, then '3 days and a half' is the exact midpoint of the cycle.

The exact midpoint of the Universal Underworld is Day 4, the inverse seventh time marker in 13 equally divided 'day and night' periods, called "Heavens". This is where the term "7th Heaven" comes from. The 7th Heaven is the midpoint marker of any Mayan Underworld. Carl Calleman, calls the metaphorical description of Day 4 as a period of "proliferation". Proliferation can mean the invasion or penetration of an entity into a foreign area. It could also mean a genesis or an inception of an idea that spreads virally and irrevocably. The Mayans equated Proliferation with the deity Cinteotl, the god of maize and sustenance (Calleman)

Maize, or corn, is the Mayan central (midpoint) staple. Corn was so vital to the Maya that corn, essentially WAS life.

If we now align what happens in Revelation 11:11, Day 4 (the third day and a half) will be when "the spirit of God" will enter into "them" (those who embraced Christ Consciousness after witnessing some global 9/11 event) and "they" (again, those who embraced) stood on their feet. I interpret standing on feet as "rising up" vibrationally, possibly to the point of being god-like; it is akin to realizing the full human potential--becoming the starchild.

The High Satanic Illuminist/Freemasonic cults, upon witnessing the mass 9/11 event of their creation, celebrates its assumed success. It is 'the moment of triumph" for the New World Order...until the plan starts falling apart. Those who are ascending will rise to their feet, and great fear [shall fall] upon "them" (the Beast World Order). Basically the Empire will have an oh-shit moment and will feel the full brunt of God's divine plan, 16.4 billion years in the making. Perhaps this may be why humans have been obsessed with blue gods for millennia. Could these blue gods be our ascended selves, transformed into fully infinite and divine beings, by Day 4 of the Universal Underworld? The Midpoint of the Universal Underworld will be the beginning of the Catharsis of Humanity, "The Event" could be the biological (DNA) and spiritual activation of Christ Consciousness.

Day 4 of the Universal Underworld occurs between June 24th and July 11th, 2011.

I cannot answer what kind of global event could trigger such an unfathomable change in conscious existence. It could be first contact with an alien race. It could be nuclear war. It could be global financial collapse. Whatever IT could be, the important thing to prepare for is that "something" is very likely during Day 4 of the Universal Underworld that will be the inception of a consciousness shift. I'm liberally using the Inception metaphor because the movie is an almost real-time training video on how to process the information overload of the Universal Underworld. The film is a blueprint for universal, infinite, co-creation. The main character is Dominic Cobb, played by Leonardo diCaprio, whose real birthday is November 11th (11:11--holy $hit!)

Cobb could be shorthand for Kabb, as in Kabbalah, with its 22 paths of creation (22=11:11)

The K/Qabalistic Tree of Life -- resonator of the Mayan Calendric Tree of Life, as discussed in Calleman's The Purposeful Universe

Cobb also resonates Corn (on the cob). Corn is maize, again represented by the Mayan deity Cinteotl, the god of maize and sustenance. Cobb is the "Corn" god who proliferates the mind of his target with an irreversible idea that forever changes the course of human events. Cobb's success is counterbalanced by the failure with his wife, Mal (Bad/214/Jupiter), which was the result of the non-conscious, dualistic, ego-survival based attempt at universal co-creation. The Midpoint of the Universal Underworld will be beginning of the Catharsis of Humanity, "the Event" could be the biological (DNA) and spiritual activation of Christ Consciousness.

Cobb, the Mayan Corn God of the Inception of the Universal Mind...along with his BFF The Jupiter/241 Pointman. The dreamworld of the subconscious can only be escaped by means of the KicK (KK = 11:11)

The Pointman / The Jupiter Man, finger on trigger.

The point finger or trigger finger is the Jupiter / 241 finger in Palmistry (big props to the Blob, read his blog!)

Now that we are now participating in the final wave of the Mayan Calendar, it is now time to start spiritually preparing in earnest. The ascended masters, the saints of Rome, the gurus, the blue gods, have all had to endure the stripping away of the chattering inner-criticism, the ego ...in some ways more painful than others. Start forgiving FAST!! The new energies that will fiercely nourish our souls need plenty of spiritual real estate to grow roots. If you're too busy living in the past with regret, criticizing yourself or judging others, then your ego is still too enveloped in its own self-hatred, fear and anger. I'm far from qualified to be enlightened. I have lots of spiritual work to do too. Perhaps we will all wake up one day and truly believe we are saints. I guess Neo went through the same shit. No wonder I love that green-tinted Matrix movie.

Let go of your past and let go of your failures. Love freely and what I mean by that is that you need to sweat, bleed and exhude love in every moment of your day. Love conquers fear. This is why it frustrates me when I see people, who used to love so freely, have shut themselves off because they either cannot overcome their fears or would rather believe someone else's opinion than their authentic selves.

When you are with others, just have that "I love you" aura about you. Perhaps more elegantly, it could be the Mayan "In'Lakesh" translated as "I am another you". Treat others as a reflection of your divine self. There will be countless changes that will tax your ability to grasp 3D reality. Even today, at the gym, I was feeling woozy, light-headed and swirly and I hadn't left the locker room! While I was working out, I was increasing weights like they were feathers. Personal bests on each station. My cardio was effortless. I wasn't sweating, I was melting pounds right off. I got home, showered and now feel ok but where did those sensations come from? My only answer is this new Underworld is speeding up consciousness tremendously to the point of physical symptomatic events.

Take extra measures to remove fear from your life. The internal apocalypse (the gradual and eventual dismantling of the ego, mentioned multiple times in this blog) is part of this process. We must eventually strip everything that we identify with, even our very identities themselves, without name nor designation. There's a lot of spring cleaning going on...getting rid of emotional baggage, removing oneself from destructive habits and/or vampiric situations and people, and taking wholesale honesty with oneself. By removing fear and living in the ever-present now, one embraces divinity. One becomes divinity. The end of the Mayan Calendar is the end of ALL cycles, not the ending of one cycle and beginning of a new cycle. The end of the Mayan Calendar signifies completion. God's plan is fulfilled at the end of artificial, technological time. Consciousness is transformed into perfection. Nothing more needs to be done. The Mayan Calendar becomes instantly obsolete.

Why does one need a calendar in the context of infinity?

In' Lakesh

I find it fascinating that believe and lie are in the same word. The Event stars Blair Underwood as a black president (an Obama resonator) that deals with extraterrestrials. Many anti-Obama slogans promoted the be/lie/ve slogan, which is also (not coincidentally) harkens to the X-Files season 4 slogan "Believe The Lie", beginning with Episode 24 (!!!).

Information Overload for Alchemists

2011-02-01T18:29:00.000-08:00

We are already past the first month of 2011, and I haven't posted a single thing this year. Until now. Now that the Mayan Calenderic Seventh Day of the Galactic Underworld is in full swing, events, frequencies and synchronicities are occuring faster than I can post. So as information, time, and conscious vibrations accelerate at even faster speed than in 2010, it's becoming very difficult to keep track and analyse current events without sounding egregiously behind. We could theoretically approach the assimilation of information at the speed of light, as time accelerates, intensifies and solidifies thought into co-creation. Perhaps consciousness is faster than light. Perhaps consciousness will be faster than infinity; it would be boundless and universal as time approaches zero.

Let's review what has happened so far this year (by far a comprehensive list):

New Years' Day marks the year 2011 (2x11=22/11:11)
The supervolcanic land mass around Yellowstone has elevated by over 2 inches, signaling a dramatic increase in geological activity.
Massive uprisings in Egypt, in the hundreds of thousands.
The San Bruno gas explosion which brought to light the failing infrastructure of American cities.
A 7.0 magnitude quake rocked through Argentina (the land of silver (and gold) fractures, symbolizing the coming worldwide economic collapse). This was followed by a 7.1 in Chile.
Facebook is valued at US$50 Billion.
The Wikileaks saga continues.
The Tuscon shooting (AriZona / A-Z / Alpha and Omega)
China tests its Chengdu J-20 Stealth Fighter on 1/11/11.
Massive flooding in Australia (OZ/Hell/77), Sri Lanka, and Brasil.
7.2 quake hits Pakistan
2010 is recorded as the warmest climate since measurements were kept in the 1800s.
Ophiuchus gains recognition in Western Astronomy as the 13th sign of the Zodiac.
and much more....

Each of these events has a symbolic, spiritual and evolutionary significance. Even the most prolific bloggers would be stretched to the limit in processing all of this information. It's going to even more intense, as the Universal Underworld, the ninth "gate" and final timewave of the Mayan Calendar begins this March.

I really believe now that the best way to process this information in real time is now Twitter. So if you're reading this, I highly suggest you follow my Twitter feed. I'm tweeting more than I use Facebook, my website, even this blog. So click the "follow me" link in the Twitter feed, near the top of this page, for my latest thoughts in between posts. I would be humbled.

However, fear not...there are more posts to come. Here's what I'm working on:

The Official End of the Sixth Night of the Galactic Underworld

2010-12-20T21:09:00.000-08:00

I now really understand why I haven't written anything about the new 7th Day of the Galactic Underworld of the Mayan Calendar. There has still been dark transitional energy left over from the the 6th Night Period. It is the darkest day in 372 years. The earth is both the farthest away from the sun (Winter Solstice) and the night is so black that even the moon cannot shine. It's nothing but up from here, folks.


Tonight's eclipse will be the first time in 372 years that it will occur on the Winter Solstice. This will be the darkest night in our entire lives! Eclipse beings at 10:33pm Pacific Time (33=3x11). Totality will last about 72 minutes (72 = 6x6x6...666 anyone?) Wear spiritual protection tonight.

There are 9 time epochs or "Underworlds" in the Mayan Calendar. Each Underworld is divided into 13 equal parts: 7 "days" and 6 "nights". The 6th Night of our current Galactic Underworld ended in the beginning of November, 2010. This period was a time of personal and collective crisis, what I call the Internal Apocalypse. Through crisis comes spiritual cleaning and preparation for higher vibrational energies. These energies transmute both individual and mass consciousness into a state of universal co-creation. Infinite possibilities.

The 7th Day of the Galactic Underworld is the final period before the 1st Day of the final and 9th Time Wave of the Mayan Calendar: The Universal Underworld, which begins the acceleration of consciousness into an infinite zero point. There will be more change in the final years of the Mayan Calendar than its prior 16.4 billion years!

The harsh, life-and-sanity-threatening energies that permeated our beings in the 6th Night have slowly dissipated into the 7th Day for several weeks. The defining energies of calendric Days and Nights never begin and end suddenly. Energies transition gradually and within balance. There is much interest in tonight's eclipse because people are beginning to prepare spiritually. There is a sense that we must all bear witness to the darkest night of the past 372 years. This means that this night is the darkest night we will ever witness in our lives!

We are the furthest away from our nourishing sun (in this hemisphere). The earth cries for warmth. We retreat into warm homes with fattening holiday food for comfort. We celebrate saviors and ascended masters in order to give us hope. This night is so dark that not even the moon can withstand the shadow, incapable to offer the reflection of our souls. For three hours we succumb to the dark side of the subconscious.

And then there will be light again. To begin anew. To look forward to the sun to come, never to be that dark ever again. It will be a momentous event. Don't miss it.

11:11 Update: The Hidden Seventh Solfeggio Tone

2010-11-28T20:16:00.000-08:00

Reader and follower, Ashyzeebra, commented on a recent posting and came up with an incredible find. Ashy reminded me of the secret Solfeggio frequencies. For those unfamiliar, the Ancient Solfeggio frequencies were intoned by monks during Gregorian chants. Certain frequencies during chants would activate certain healing or transformative energies to the audience.

The Six Solfeggio Frequencies include:

UT – 396 Hz – Liberating Guilt and Fear

RE – 417 Hz – Undoing Situations and Facilitating Change

MI – 528 Hz – Transformation and Miracles (DNA Repair)

FA – 639 Hz – Connecting/Relationships

SOL – 741 Hz – Awakening Intuition

LA – 852 Hz – Returning to Spiritual Order

Ashy mentioned in particular, MI (528 Hz) activates transformation and miracles. Since entering the final wave of the Galactic Underworld, we are already noticing incredible change and transformation, the shedding of useless relationships, broken toys and all the dead matter called "the pain-body". I would highly recommend a good Gregorian Chant CD or MP3 album and meditate with it on a regular basis. For those short on time to chillax to some church monks, download a Tone Generator program (just google it), program the above frequencies and listen to each tone for about a minute.

I believe there is something more, however. It never sat well with me that there are only 6 Solfeggio frequencies. The Mayan Calendar uses a 13:20 matrix (13 moons/base-20 count) within a 7:9 matrix (7 days/9 underworlds) each with a distinct creative vibration, would it not follow that there are certain frequencies that harmonize with each day as well?

I believe part of the 11:11 activation code is a revelation of a hidden Solfeggio frequency:

XI (or SI) - 1111 Hz - Inceptive Supreme Manifestation

It makes sense that 1111 would be the final Solfegio frequency. XI is a sound that originated in ancient Greek and Latin languages. These languages migrated into Europe and one particular linguistic branch became Spanish, Portugese, Italian and other "Rome-ance/Romance" (akin to the classic Roman) languages. "XI" became "SI" which means 'yes'. The awakened consciousness that finally says "Yes" to God and sheds the limited human ego becomes the inception source of unlimited supreme co-creation/manifestation. XI is also the Roman numeral for 11.

1111 is the eternal YES. 1111 is Inception. 1111 is the call for spiritual exodus.

No need to wait for ancient astronauts, angels, aliens, Jesus, the government, or whomever, to save you. You are more than spiritually advanced enough and capable enough to save yourself. If you weren't, then you would be living in this age, right NOW. Every era, every minute that has ever existed counts for something. And every era and every minute ARE the End Times...if you are ready to choose Yes. Yes is the activation code for those who ready, who have no fear and are really tired of playing the fucking karmic wheel game and are eager to get outta here. The Mayan Calendar is a roadmap, a 16.4+ billion year timeline from single cell to starchild. However the Mayan Calender won't turn you into a starchild for you. It is just a map, not a Nintendo cheat code. You have to activate yourself. Hopefully, the 11:11 signal and its matching harmonic are ways to assist you toward that goal.

**Big thanks to, you, Ashyzeebra for your amazing input. Ashyzeebra is starting a blog, called The Inceptive Flow. It's still under construction but I'm sure there will be some really good stuff on there soon. Also check out Red Ice Creations, a website that we both admire highly and the source for tons of the latest transformative and alternative info that's out there on the web.

I hope everyone had a blessed Thanksgiving. Be thankful that you are releasing that which is no longer healthy or useful in your life. Be thankful that you are giving love instead of expecting it. Be thankful for your friends and family. Be thankful that God is helping you on your spiritual journey.

Hypothetical Solfeggio alignment with Mayan Calenderic 'Days'

The Ultimate Yes scene from the film "Waking Life" (note the 11111 at 2:50)

11:11 - The Multidimensional Emergency Broadcast Signal

2010-11-11T05:50:00.000-08:00

It's November 11th, otherwise known as 11/11. It is the American Veterans' Day (formerly known as Armistice Day) and generally known worldwide as a day for global peace--the end to all wars.

However, there is something else; there is the phenomena of 11:11...the synchronicity of elevens.

Do you wake up in the middle of the night or check your clock or cell phone and the time is 11:11? Does this happen quite often? Often enough that it feels like a pattern?

Do you notice 11's around you or multiples of 11 (22, 33, 4444, etc.)? Or do you notice multiples of time (2:22, 5:55, etc.). Is it more than a coincidence? If you answered 'yes' to any of these questions, you are among millions of others around the world that feel the same way.

11:11...Is it following you?

The 11:11 time phenomenon in many ways is a digital signal--a secret transmission into your consciousness within the limited 3-dimensional matrix of human existence. Before digital clocks were invented in 1968, human society had been ruled by the mechanical clock, the most insidious device ever created. Invented in China in the mid 7th Century AD, the mechanical clock removed mankind from a natural cycle of time (solar/lunar cycles) into a rigid, artificial time (cycles of time determined by exact analog measurements in equal measure).

Early Chinese clocks were perfected by European clocks of the Renaissance and thusly pervaded global human thought. With artificial time, came notions of local, regional, national and international business where "Time is Money". Time controlled schools, work, rest, travel, electronics, everything. Time became a pervasive, automatic heartbeat in which the world runs--even today. Humanity is enslaved in this holographic matrix. Artificial time destroys our natural, circadian rhythms and promotes the dysfunctional state of the post-internet human ego.

As society accelerates, so does time--to the point that mechanical clocks could not keep up with the pace of ever-increasing complexity of technological innovation. Digital clocks were able to accurately measure the speed of electronics, micro- and now super-computers, modern military and nuclear arsenals, spacecraft and nanotechnology.

As the Mayan Calendar approaches its end in 2011-2012, even the world's most advanced digital devices are now inadequate to keep up with the massive exponential growth of human consciousnesses. We are approaching the end of novelty, as Terrance McKenna theorized. We are approaching our species' maximum capacity of growth and expansion. After that, either the species must evolve through a singular or progressive series of quantum leaps or, quite frankly, self-destruct and start over in a few million years.

When one witnesses 11:11, he or she is the recipient of a divine hyperdimensional rescue signal. It is an activation signal for both your earthly and astral selves. Since modern, 21st-Century civilization is a digital domain, then a divine carrier signal must also be encoded digitally, in the same way a virus infects a computer. When we witness 11:11, our DNA is activated in minute, yet progressively more radical ways, as both time and consciousness accelerates toward 2012.

Although Earth has been aligned with the center of the Milky Way Galaxy since 1998, the exact apex of this alignment will occur on December, 21, 2012 11:11 UTC, the popular (although inaccurate) end date of the Mayan Calendar. The heart of the living galaxy is consciously transmitting a digital signal to beings on Earth to prepare for ascension into a new, enlightened, non-dualistic mind. It is an invitation from the great I AM, the Creator himself, to prepare for the "Ultimate Trip", i.e. to become the Star Child, like Sagittarian Ancient Astronaut (AA=11), David Bow-man.

Bowman approaches the center of the galaxy via the Monolith at Jupiter.

Reality is fracturing at neck-breaking speed. Today's world is an unfathomable strain upon any grasp of reality (read my previous post here). Dreams and real life are creeping into each other's backyards. 11:11 gives hope; it is God's covenant to protect those chosen for what is to come as we approach 2012. I am not necessarily predicting doomsday because that is a relative term. I believe, the only doomsday that will occur will be one that affects those who are void of spirituality, the lovers of money over truth and the wicked who have poisoned the world with ultraviolence and corruption of innocent souls.

I cannot stress enough that physical 3-dimensional survival is a non-issue for the changes to come. Whether you die in a nuclear blast or are magically raptured to Bubblegum Land, your physical body will cease to exist. All attachments to this reality must eventually be relinquished in order to spiritually advance. This is what it means to have Anubis weigh one's soul against a feather--you must take no residual baggage, ego or residual self-identity with you into next life...walk away when the moment comes and eternal peace will be with you. Don't worry about hording gold or building bunkers. Just get spiritually prepared. You can't take all that shit with you where you're going anyway....

Take no attachments with you...

11:11 is the highway exit sign for YOUR individual journey on this earth, in this precious time, in this era of the end of the Mayan Calendar. You will be co-creating your own heaven, your own infinite reality--it is the inception of the Universal Mind. Don't expect others to follow you on your path. The 11:11 signal was made just for YOU. This 3-dimensional reality will soon blossom into an infinite-dimensional reality. Are you excited about the possibility? Have you had an awesome dream where anything is possible? Multiply that by infinity! That is the eternal, co-creative NOW.

To quote the Crystalinks website:

You will have to seek new friends of like mind who are also being triggered by the digits. Once you open the Digital Door, there is no going back. Your soul will automatically and quickly move you from level to level of experience until you 'get it'. Your consciousness is expanding and therefore you will, manifest faster and with greater comprehension, becoming more aware of the meaning of synchronicities that will become more and more frequent. They are created by your soul to help you remember that you are a soul [sole?] spark in a physical program that is about to end, [to] evolve back to higher consciousness. Once you see your numeric codes, you have activated something in your DNA codes and they will continue to appear until you 'get the message' ... it is 'time' to move on. Upon seeing your digitally encoded numbers, you may feel a sense of urgency or related emotions. Chill out! For NOW there is TIME!

In'Lakesh

PS: Yes, I will be writing about the 7th Day of the Galactic Underworld and the upcoming 9th and Final Wave of the Mayan Calendar...very soon. It's a very exciting time to be alive right now...I don't think I could have written about the 7th Day until I had a clear understanding about 11:11. Now I can write my next blog entry. Peace.

Inception Update

2010-11-10T20:26:00.000-08:00

Hello, Friends.

Thanks for all the great feedback on the last Inception post. I've been holding back on the next part(s) of the movie analysis because I'm waiting for the release of the DVD so that I can REALLY dig deep into the movie. Since the film is not in theaters anymore, it's easy to lose the immediate reference of its rich, esoteric symbolism. I would rather have the film readily available for readers to follow along and draw conclusions in addition to my own.

So thanks for your patience! It will be worth the wait!!

Inception will be on DVD/Blu-Ray December 7. Pre-order from Amazon here.

New BOC video: Telephasic Workshop

2010-09-20T17:31:00.000-07:00

It's no mystery that my favorite electronic band is Boards of Canada. I've been making music fanvids for some time. Here is my latest one, Telephasic Workshop, from the album Music Has The Right To Children. Check out my other videos when you get a chance.

Yes...I am working on my 1st video of my OWN music so stay tuned. Also...keep your eye out for the next installment on my analysis of the film Inception. Peace and love and then more peace and love.

Inception of the Universal Mind: Part 1

2010-09-06T11:17:00.000-07:00

I've been writing about the movie Inception for the past few days and I haven't stopped. It seems like the deeper I go into the rabbit hole, the dizzier I get. So this blog will have to be done in parts. A bit of writing here, publish, write some more, publish, lather, rinse, repeat. Many thanks to A Few Shots To Shaman and The Sync Whole for their knowledge and integration in making this post possible. If you haven’t seen the movie, this blog post is chock-full of spoilers, so consider yourself warned!

Inception [ɪnˈsɛpʃən] - n. The beginning, as of a project or undertaking.

You may not hear in on the news but director Christopher Nolan’s masterpiece, Inception, is quietly riding the blockbuster wave in the theaters. At almost $300M in total revenue and almost 2 months after release, Inception is still packing in audiences around the country. Without nearly the hype of the movie Avatar, this movie is striking a deep spiritual chord with audiences. Not since The Matrix has there been a movie that challenges and questions our existence and what reality truly means for us.

Inception was released on July 16th, 2010, the same weekend of the Cosmic Convergence, a worldwide festival and peace meditation that celebrated the upcoming end of the 8th Galactic wave of the Mayan calendar and the beginning (or inception) of the 9th and final Universal wave. As author Carl Calleman mentioned, the Cosmic Convergence is an event to “set up a base camp” for future events as the human race accelerates toward a unity consciousness as the Mayan Calender completes itself (the popular date is 2012, but Calleman purports an end in October 2011).

Calleman's 9 Waves or Creation Cycles of the Mayan Calendar. We are about to finish the Galactic and enter the Universal.

The Cosmic Covergence is a direct analog to the Harmonic Convergence peace meditation of August 16-17, 1987. Organized by Mayan authority, Jose Arguelles, the Harmonic Convergence celebrated an extremely rare astrological Grand Trine (which actually occurred on 8/24/87--magic 24/42). The Sun, Moon, Mars and Venus were in exact alignment, astrologically called a conjunction at the first degree of Virgo. Mercury was in the fourth degree of Virgo. Jupiter was in Aries, and Saturn and Uranus in Sagittarius completing the grand trine. However some believe that this is an Earth Grand Trine with Sun/Moon/Mars/Venus/Mercury in the initial degrees of Virgo, Neptune at 5 degrees of Capricorn, and Jupiter in the last degree of Aries (anaretic degree), on the cusp of Taurus. Uranus, and especially Saturn are on the edge of this trine (Wikipedia).

The Grand Trine of 8/24/87

According to Arguelles, the 1987 Grand Trine of the Cosmic Convergence marks the final 26-year countdown to the end of the Mayan Calendar in 2012, which will usher in a New Age of peace and universal co-creation.)

Almost 23 (enigma) years to the day after the Harmonic Convergence, the Cosmic Convergence is celebrated and Inception premieres in theatres. The tagline of the movie reads: “The dream is real” and “Your mind is the scene of the crime.”

The Dream Is REAL. Your MIND Is The Scene Of The Crime

“The dream is real” harkens back to another synchronistic film, The Matrix, in which the real world in which we live is actually a computer program designed to keep us asleep and docile. Meanwhile, the human race is actually enslaved for energy by a race of artificially intelligent machines.

Neo/The ONE played by Keanu Reeves is the Christ-resonator who frees his mind in the dreamworld and eventually destroys the Matrix. Keanu is also the demon slayer in Constantine and the savior-alien Klaatu in The Day The Earth Stood Still.

In Inception, professional “extractors” infiltrate the dream world to steal secrets that belong to other people, similar to how Neo and the Nebuchadnezzar crew “jacked-in” the holographic world of The Matrix. Once the dreamworld is infiltrated, possibilities are endless.

Hacking into the dream world...

The concept of “dream sharing”, whether in The Matrix or in Inception is extremely radical. It is revolutionary. This concept assumes that dreams are essentially REAL. As humankind transitions out of the dark 6th (k)night of the Galactic Underworld and into the 7th day, our collective thoughts are becoming reality. The thin line between dreams and reality will begin to dissolve until the dream state IS reality: an infinite state of being and “pure creation”.

For the past 16+ billion years, life on Earth has evolved through a divine plan. From amoebic, to mammalian, to proto-humanoid, to modern-industrial, to virtual, human consciousness is exponentially accelerating and evolving to cope with an ever-increasing amount of data assimilation. Eventually, a quantum leap occurs. We are in the cusp of that leap. Some call it the 2nd coming of Christ (consciousness), others call it the “New Age”, “The Return of Quetzalcoatl”, “Return of White Buffalo”, “End of the Kali Yuga”. The list goes on but the story is the same. It is the story of the infinite mystery. It is the story of the death of human ego and the dissolution of concrete 3-dimensional reality. The story is the revelation of the infinite dimension—the universal mind.

As the Mayan Calendar ends, mass swaths of the human population are experiencing personal, local, national, global and galactic changes. Like ripples in a pond, every vibration and thought we transmit could potentially affect the existence of every other creature on earth and beyond. We have to be careful what we wish for because it could very well come true right now. As we share our dreams today, it is imperative that we cultivate energies of peace, infinite love and conscious pure creation of heaven on earth. This is the thousand years of peace we all so desperately seek.

Viral marketing posters for Inception: Protect Your Thoughts!

The 9th and final wave of the Mayan Calendar is the fertile foundation for the cultivation of the universal mind. The universal mind is God-like, since we are created in his image. The 9th wave is therefore appropriately called, the Universal Underworld. The Universal Underworld is extremely brief, compared to rest of the Mayan Calendar—only 260 days, beginning on Feb. 11, 2011 (2/11, two-eleven or 11:11, 2011—again two-eleven, 11:11) and ending on Oct. 28, 2011. More events will occur in these 260 days than in the previous 16+ billion years of the Mayan Calendar! According to scholars, each underworld accelerates 20 times faster than the previous one. This means the final wave of the calendar will be 20^9 times faster than the first; that’s 512 billion times more accelerated than the Cellular Underworld! Pure creation is the ultimate quantum leap, hinted by Inception, in which the God-like Universal Mind can create entire worlds. The Universal Mind is a direct conduit to divine Christ Consciousness; it is infinite understanding and infinite bliss.

We are all starchildren. We are in contact with the divine NOW.

2010: The Year We Make Contact With The Universal Mind (notice the tagline above "To see if there is a life beyond the stars..."

The other tagline from Inception is “Your mind is the scene of the crime”. This is a brief buy incredibly profound synopsis of our state of being. If our thoughts are projecting reality, then we are collectively projecting war, bloodshed, rape, environmental disasters, terrorism, hate, theft, torture, murder, and everything else that is related to conscious destruction. We are thought criminals.

In Inception, the actual “crime” is not the theft of an idea from someone’s dream; it is the implantation of one. An idea can change the course of history (for better or worse). The Mayan Calandar is a road map of the trillions of ideas throughout mankind’s existence that eventually brought us here today. An organism has a conscious idea to replicate its own cells. An ancient hominid decides to use a bone as a weapon instead of a tool. A nomadic tribe of people has an idea of trading and commerce, which later becomes the Roman Empire. A failed artist comes up with the idea of Mein Kampf. A computer geek invents the first email. A pilot crashes a commercial jet into the World Trade Center.

As we reach the simultaneous culmination of all Underworlds of the Mayan calendar, we must focus and put intense effort into conscious benefit for everyone, not just the privileged. The age of ultraviolence must end and through the Universal Mind of infinite conscious co-creation we all can initiate the new age of ultraviolet energy.

Sahasrara, the 7th crown chakra, is the highest vibratory state of the ethereal energy body. It is ultraviolet—beyond the violet pineal gland (third eye) activation of the 6th Ajna chakra.

Inception was produced by Christopher Nolan’s in-house company, SYNCopy. Syncopy is a medical term; it is the state of unconsciousness due to a lack of oxygen to the brain. To “sync” is to be in alignment or natural coordination. If you follow esoteric or alchemical blogs and websites, “synching” refers to the interpretation of symbols and language in popular culture in order to interpret a divine message or some revelation of a higher truth. This is what this blog is about and countless others. To be sure, consciously or unconsciously (via syncopy) Nolan could be transmitting a divine message that we all need to sync the symbols found in everyday life in order to make the “dream real”…to exist in a state of pure co-creation.

The Syncopy logo is drawn as a maze, in the same way the film itself is promoted. In the film, dream worlds are created with impossible, Escherian safety measures. The mind itself is a maze. One can become eternally lost once the mind creates a world that cannot tell the difference between reality and the dream world. It is the Matrix. It is Inception. The mind projects the deadly Minotaur within the impossible maze…but more on that later.

SYNCopy logo

Inception logo

The dualistic mind is a maze, lost within itself. The universal mind is unified in pure creation.

Part 2...Coming soon...

New Post Coming Soon

2010-08-29T09:50:00.000-07:00

I'm working on a massive post regarding the movie Inception. People have been asking me about what I've been thinking of this movie and its effect on humanity's mass consciousness. In a nutshell, it is a mind-blowing movie and ranks among the best synchromystic films ever made. I am in awe that in the same year we have both Avatar and Inception as the one-two knockout punch of global awakening as we approach Day 7 of the Galactic Underworld of the Mayan Calendar. I plan to see the movie once more in the theater before its showings run out (go see the movie if you haven't!). Not since The Matrix have I encountered a film that transformed how I perceive reality and what's to come for humankind.

The dream is real. Stay tuned.

Blood Of The Dinosaurs

2010-07-05T22:35:00.000-07:00

I'm back after a long hiatus...more on that later. For now, here is some breaking news.

The BP Deepwater HoriZOn (ZO/OZ/77) oil spill has been on my mind for quite some time. It is an oil disaster of enormous proportions. Official media reports have egregiously under-reported the magnitude of the damage done to the Gulf region of the United States. The amount of oil released into the ocean is roughly 100,000-200,000 barrels a day, compared to paltry media estimates of 5,000-10,000/day. These estimates do not even include trapped oil that has yet to surface. Regardless of the calculations, it is possible that the BP oil spill could reach the 200+ million barrel mark, making it the worst oil disaster in history.

Since late May, scientists have been extremely concerned that if a significant amount of oil gets trapped in the Gulf Loop Current, then containment will be near impossible. Crude oil will churn in the loop current, like smoothies in a blender, for decades. To make matters worse, we are in the beginning of hurricane season. Once a significant hurricane hits the Gulf Coast, large quantities of oil could potentially traverse into the Atlantic. It is already a given that businesses in Louisiana, Alabama, and other Gulf states, barely recovering 5 years after Katrina, will be decimated.

Currents in the Gulf Loop

It cannot be understated that if oil continues to spew into the Gulf region and somehow contaminates the corals reefs of the Yucatan and Florida Keys, then poisoning the Atlantic via hurricane, we could be witness to a mass extinction of sealife and a chain reaction of consequences from that extinction.

Why is this a significant event, especially in light of the upcoming end of the Mayan Calendar?

We are just coming out of the pit of the Sixth Night of the Galactic Underworld, according to the Mayan Calendar, while slowly cycling up to the Seventh Day. The exact midpoint between the beginning and end of the Sixth Night is May 6, 2010. In my previous post, I go into detail on what types of events occur during these "nights", from individual crises such as depression and the disruption of relationships, to macro-crises such as natural and man-made disasters. If we divide the 360-day "Sixth Night" into fractals of 20 days each, it could be noted that the deepest threshold or "horizon" of the Sixth Night of the Galactic Underworld is between April 16th - May 26th, 2010.

Time waves of 360-day novelty in the Galactic Underworld

The Deepwater Horizon oil spill began on April 20th (FLOWering 4/20, Jupiter, 42) when pressurized methane exploded and destroyed the BP Deepwater Horizon oil rig in the middle of Mexico.*

65 Million years ago, during the Sixth Night of the Mammalian Underworld, the Chicxulbub (ChiC/CC/KK/Cosmic Consciousness) meteor struck the Yucatan peninsula with the force of 100M megatons of explosive force, instantly extinguishing 95% of life on our planet and brought all dinosaurs to extinction.

Marker A: The location of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

(Courtesy: Goggle Maps)

It is auspicious that both the Deepwater Horizon disaster and the Chicxulbub meteor impact both occurred in their respective Underworld cycles in the Sixth Night. Both events are analogous and both events mirror each other in the grand scheme of universal consciousness. Crude oil is essentially the liquefied carcasses of the dinosaur era. Karmically speaking, we have been powering our machines, factories, planes, boats and automobiles on the blood of dinosaurs since the Industrial Revolution. In this light, it comes to no surprise today the earth is hemorrhaging in the same location where a mass extinction occurred all those millions of years ago. We could be in the midst of another mass extinction, possibly within months or even weeks.

Calleman's 9-dimensional quantum time map of consicousness

According to Barbara Hand Clow, during the 7th Day of any Underworld, revolutionary processes culminate right after mass extinctions and great changes take place. For example, in the 7th Day of the Familial Underworld, Australopithecus usurped monkeys and aboriginal primates as the dominate species of the planet. When an older Underworld ends and a new one begins, newer life forms coalesce and organize in order to adapt to a greater amount of data, time acceleration and crises. Time acceleration and the densification of reality are so intense and so critical between 9 simultaneous quantum vessles of conscious development, that wholesale leaps and shifts seem to appear out of nowhere.

John Cleese as Professor Barnheart (Heart/Galactic Center/Sagittarius) in The Day The Earth Stood Still: "You say we're on the brink of destruction and you're right. But it's only on the brink that people find the will to change. Only at the precipice do we evolve. This is our moment. Don't take it from us, we are close to an answer."

Keanu Reeves at Klattu in The Day The Earth Stood Still: Resonator of Johnny Mnemonic, Contstantine and Neo/One/Jesus, man who died and was reborn to destroy and escape the Matrix. (Note: The Matrix premiered on 3/31/99 during Day 1 of the Galactic Underworld)

Crisis and upheaval that takes place in any Sixth Night lay the groundwork and prepares for the fecundity for the Seventh Day. Perhaps our synchromystic Neo/Klattu realized that it is the (seventh) day that the earth will stand still: the duality of the Matrix becoming One. The threat of mass extinction of fish and sea life caused by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill may symbolize a manifestation of the end of the Piscean age--which is the age of the (dual) fish and the era of Jesus ("the One/NEO"). The death of the Christian Piscean Age will lay the groundwork for the New Age of Aquarius and the Second Coming of Christ/Cosmic Consicousness.

The duality of Pisces

Seventh Day Adventists observe Saturn's Day (Saturday) and strongly advocate the imminent Second Coming of Jesus (the New Age of Christ Consciousness).

In the Mayan Calendar, the following highest expressions in conscious development occurred on Day 7 (Clow):

Cellular: Eukaryotic organisms (the first differentiation away from mineral and plant life).
Mammilian: Placental animals (the first mammals that would eventually become humans).
Familial: The first primates and proto-humans with tool making ability (Australopithecus afr.).
Tribal: Modern humans and first forms of communication.
Regional: Agriculture.
National: Modern nations, industrialization and mass production.
Planetary: The Internet.
Galactic: ?
Universal: ?

I am open to suggestions to what may happen in the Seventh Day of the Galactic Underworld but I am sure that the massive destruction caused by the BP oil spill will the the last straw for humanity's tolerance of the multi-trillion dollar petrochemical industry. People worldwide are no longer sitting in silence. People are demanding that we find cleaner and more efficient sources of energy. It could be possible that the defining quantum leap in conscious development in the Galactic (or Universal) Underworld is the discovery (or re-discovery) of free energy, as pioneered by Tesla and others. Harnessing free, unlimited energy may return the planet to its balanced, pristine state. When there are no more resources to fight over, then war may become obsolete. Perhaps this is the "thousand years of peace" that Christians so desperately seek. Another quantum possibility is first contact from an alien race. With predictive programming of television shows and movies such as V, Battlestar Galactica, District 9, The Day The Earth Stood Still, and J.J. Abrams' upcoming Super 8, the High Priests in Holly-Wood may be conditioning the masses to accept extra-planetary contact as immanent.

The Mayan concept of evolution, according to Carl Calleman, is vociferously anti-Darwinian. Although the nine underworlds of the Mayan Calendar compel biological organisms to adapt in direct proportion to their environment, it is the Calendar's ability to account for quantum shifts in consciousness that separates it from antiquated Darwinism. The Mayan Calendar is a road map of divine intelligent design. Species go extinct because consciousness is not linear, it is a quantum state. A species that is incompatible with a new quantum novelty will be at risk of annihilation. The rise of mass homo sapien consciousness, 65 million years ago, enabled certain astronomical events to come into place, thereby creating a "perfect storm" for the mass extinction of all dinosaur life. The rise of mass homo pacae (peaceful human) consciousness, today, is enabling certain terrestrial and astronomical events to come into place, and thereby creating another "perfect storm" for the mass extinction of corporations, superstates, ego-based existence, and possibly the extinction of modern human life. Day 7 is the day of fruition; it is the day that all Underworlds complete themselves at the same time.

Although we are in the midst of a constant barrage of emergencies and disasters in recent times, we must all take up hope. We must all flow with change and be flexible. Rigidity creates breakage. Flexibility creates formlessness. Right now our collective consciousness, through planetary crisis, is under tremendous pressure. Like a lump of coal becoming a diamond, our collective thoughts are increasing in density, heat and intensity. We all feel like we are about to break apart or burn to a crisp because time is accelerating so mercilessly, that our biological structures are now increasingly inadequate to cope with such intensity. Hang in there. If you are to fulfill your divine purpose, a quantum shift will occur, unifying our collective minds with the divine. Life is transforming very quickly. You have been chosen to participate in this very exciting time in history. We are returning to the Garden of Eden when all of this is over.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

*The 2010 eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland also occurred within the same time fractal as the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Not much more to explain here, other than the gigantic plume of ash from the volcano is an airborne analog to BP's oil slick in the Gulf. The coming Age of Aqu(AIR)ius resonates both water (aqua/oil slick) and air (clouds/ash).

Breaking The Heart Open Through The Internal Apocalypse

2010-02-14T20:40:00.000-08:00

"It's the return of the Gods. You better get your ammo and your camel that lurk in the shadows."
-- Hip Hop artist Sick Since

This is Valentine's Day weekend, almost marking 2 months since my last post. It has been a time of personal crisis, suffering, spiritual stress, loss and tumult. Yet, I have almost experienced an equal measure of victories, breakthroughs, and amazement. In some sense, the information that I have been processing for these past several weeks has been so complex and so intricate that it took a holiday such as Valentine's Day to integrate it all together. Without further delay, let's taste the rainbow...

Let's first recap some information from earlier posts. Jupiter is the largest planet of our solar system. In mythology, Jupiter is the Roman equivalent to Zeus, the supreme ruler of all gods. Jupiter (Zeus) was also the ultimate discharger of justice, temperance and enlightenment, often by means of the lightning bolt. Lightning was a gift from the Cyclopes, after Jupiter/Zeus defeated his father, Cronus, leader of the Titans. Notice the Cyclopes sees with the third eye. Therefore lightning is the weapon of the third eye.

Polyphemus, the Cyclops

In astrology, Jupiter is the planet that represents wealth, abundance, money, good fortune and joy. We enjoy the term 'jovial' to describe a person with such characteristics. The names Jove and Juno are also derivatives of Jupiter and equate its aspects. The astrological and alchemical symbol of Jupiter is this glyph below (credit: Centreportal's blog):

The symbol for Jupiter looks like a 2 and a 4 put together. It can also be said that the back of the 4 can be used as the number 1. Therefore, the essence of Jupiter can be distilled mathematically as 24, 42, 241, 214, 421, 124, 142, 1/42, 4/21, etc. This 42 symbol is the same symbol of for the substance, tin. In The Wizard of Oz, the TIN man is looking for a heart. 42 is also the "answer to everything" in the The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Read Centerportal's brilliant post here for more information about the Tin-Jupiter-42-Connection.

Jupiter sign 2-4-1 (Centreportal)

I have mentioned in a previous post that some native Peruvian populations who practice plant shamanism believe Jupiter is the land of the dead; a place where beings of a different vibrational essence rise into higher consciousness. Jupiter is also where the spiritual pilgrimage takes place as (Ancient) Astronaut Dave Bowman discovered in Kubrick's masterpiece, 2001: A Space Odyssey. Bow-man, the Sagittarian Man, shoots his way into the heart of the galaxy, via the great black monolith (the alchemical prima materia, according to Jay Wiedner) and becomes the starchild. In the sequel, 2010: The Year We Make Contact, Bowman returns to commission the spiritual evolution of planet Jupiter itself. The planet devolves and condenses into a new star, Lucifer.

Before becoming the starchild, Bowman has a hallucinogenic meltdown. The mysterious monolith is the divine conduit which broke the human ego through unimaginable horror and stripped it from all vestiges of identity and self. Once purged of limited ego, the human is transmogrified into a new, unified higher-conscious entity. This is the Internal Apocalypse.

Bowman's horror upon the breaking of the heart/ego/self. Note the illuminated eye.

Jupiter's horror upon the breaking of the planetary self. Note the illuminated eye storm.

I am a firm believer that spiritual development does not come without suffering. We must lose something to gain something. As of this writing, we are smack dab in the middle of the Sixth Night of the Galactic Underworld in the Mayan Calendar. Unlike what the 2012-hype machine may impress upon us, the Mayan Calendar is a precise blueprint of both human evolution but also galactic/universal evolution. "Days" and "Nights" are equal and alternating time periods in the Mayan Calendar, each with specific vibrational themes of novelty. Nights are notorious for cyclical crisis and change, beginning with the individual and expanding macroscopically from there. Like Bowman, we must all undergo a period of internal apocalypse so that we become fully broken, emptied and then receptive to new, emergent energies. A state of bliss, enlightenment, rapture, whatever-you-call it cannot be attained without breaking the vessel.

Recap: Calleman's road map of the Mayan Galactic Underworld

Some concurrent symptoms of the Internal Apocalypse:

Individual: Illnesses, Disease, Anomalous Symptoms, Depression, Anxiety, Loss of Relationships or Work, Lack of Communication, Victimization, Economic Difficulty, Weight Loss or Gain, Death or Suicide.

Local: Upswings in Crime, Riots, Weather Instability, Police Brutality, Blackouts, Traffic Accidents, Fires, Graffiti, Layoffs. Lack of Cooperation between authorities and citizens.

Regional: State Bankruptcies, Factory Closings, Corruption, Tax Increases, Political Controversies, Immigration Problems, Tax Revolts, Factory Recalls, Educational Failures, Challenging of Legal Rights.

National: Economic Recessions and Depressions, Monetary Devaluation, Wars, Terrorism, Racial Unrest, Assassinations, State-Sponsored Surveillance, Infringement on Rights, Pandemics.

Planetary: Record-Breaking Weather Patterns and Disasters, Nuclear Proliferation, Solar Flares and Severe EMF disruptions, Global Warming/Cooling, Environmental Destruction, Species Extinction, Volcanic Distruption, Extraterrestrial Contact and/or Disclosure, Births/Deaths of Stars and Planets

Galactic: Planetary Alignments, Supernovas, Black Holes, Interstellar Collisions, Extrasolar Discoveries.

Universal: Complete Dimensional Shifts, Gravitational Contraction of the Universe, Alternate and Parallel Realities, Quantitative Changes in Time and Light, Evolutionary Transformations.

What happens to the individual in the here and now has the potential to affect the vibrational potential of everything else, even entire planets and galaxies. You may be experiencing some or many of these symptoms right now. Our collective hearts are breaking at this delicate period of time and we may not all survive long enough to get to the other side of our problems. Like the Tin Man, we may be in need of new hearts very soon. What better day to seek a new heart than Valentine's Day, the day of the heart, the day of pure Jupiter energy...

2/14 = 214 = Jupiter

Jupiter welcomes all of us into higher consciousness after the body and the ego are gone, the remnants of the Internal Apocalypse. Take heed the cryptic message from the (in)famous Toynbee tiles:

TOYNBEE IDEA
IN KUBRICK'S 2001
RESURRECT DEAD
ON PLANET JUPITER.

No one knows who wrote this message. However, it can be interpreted that Stanley Kubrick purposefully inserted his understanding of Arnold Toynbee's theories about the rise and fall of civilizations (even mass consciousness) into his movie, 2001. In addition, Kubrick must have had some prior gnostic information about the evolution of humans and its correlation to Jupiter. There are thousands of these Toynbee tiles around the world. Why has Jupiter permeated our collective thoughts so thoroughly? Is Jupiter the key to higher consciousness, or alternatively called, Christ Consciousness (CC/KK/11:11)?

In the movie, Avatar, the events take place on Pandora, a lush, vibrant moon of the planet Polyphemus. Although the name was not mentioned in the movie, it is in director James Cameron's official notes. Note that Polyphemus has a striking resemblance to Jupiter, with its great singular storm. Many people who have seen this wonderful film feel this is a portent of things to come; the film is a blueprint for spiritual and biological evolution. Perhaps, Polyphemus, the 'Blue Jupiter' is awakening the dormant parts of ourselves to become infinite beings, blessed by apotheosis.

Polyphemus vs. Jupiter

Polyphemus resonates Jupiter in more ways than in appearance. In Greek mythology, Polyphemus is one of the Cyclopes. Remember, it was the Cyclopes that gave Zeus his lightning bolts. Both Jupiter and Polyphemus appear as one-eyed planets. Polyphemus resonates Jupiter/Zeus (tin heart/42) and his lightning bolts (arrows) of justice/enlightenment. Hearts and arrows sound familiar these days, don't they? We're right back at Valentine's Day - 2/14.

Like Sick Since's quote at the beginning of this blog, we are witnessing a true "Return of The Gods". Going back to Avatar, Pandora's native people, the Nav'i, are analogous to the blue Hindu god Vishnu and his avatar Krishna. Vishnu, because of his association with water, is depicted with blue color. So, all his incarnations including Krishna, are shown as such. In Hinduism, persons who have depth of character and the capacity to fight evil are depicted as blue-skinned. In the movie, the blue-skinned Nav'i defend their homeworld from humanity's destructive corporate interests.

(SPOILER) The Nav'i suffer a horrific mass-trauma event, a massive 9/11 event with the destruction of Hometree, their double-helixed Tree of Life. Like astronaut resonator Bowman, the Nav'i are a species of BOW-MEN, using primitive bows, arrows, and various domesticated steeds to defeat the technocratic military threat. The Nav'i are a race of Sagittarian warriors who suffered an internal (and external) mass apocalyptic trauma-event. The mass breakage of hearts allowed the Nav'i to finally accept a human "dreamwalker" to save their planet, the Jesus-resonator Jake (JK/JC) SuLLy (LL/12-12/24/Jupiter).

The Nav'i (NAtIVe) race of Sagittarian Bow-Men from Blue Jupiter, Pandora

The Constellation Sagittarius is currently aligned with the heart of the Milky Way as predicted by the Mayan Calendar (1986-2016)

Astronaut Bow-Man aligns his heart with the heart of Jupiter and becomes the Starchild via the bolt (arrow) of enlightenment, thanks to the monolith of black material.

"Jesus" Jake Sully aligns his heart with the heart of Blue Jupiter and is born again as the savior of the Nav'i.

The bolt of enlightenment pierces the heart on the day of Valentine Jupiter - 2/14. Love and enlightenment are crucial to higher Christ Consciousness.

The blue gods of enlightenment have returned and they are us. We are the Nav'i. We are the avatars of Christ and Vishnu. In this darkest time of suffering and Internal Apocalypse, the Sixth Night of the Mayan Galactic Underworld, we are activating the Christ within. Our collective hearts are shattering so that we can fulfill our unique, divine purposes. We will overcome and surpass, as Dr. Robert Lorenz would say, our diseased civilization, ruled by the individual and collective dysfunctional ego.

If you find blue gods and cosmic hearts difficult to digest, keep in mind we just had our worldwide mega-ritual last Friday--the opening ceremony of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. The most stunning performance in the ceremony was the raising of the BLUE totems from the First Nation peoples of Canada. These Native (remember, Nav'i?) peoples danced and ritualized the return of the Great Bear.

The Great Bear is the constellation Ursa Major. In Greek mythology, Jupiter/Zeus lusted after a nymph, named Callisto (also a moon of Jupiter!). Hera, Zeus' wife, turns Callisto into a bear out of jealousy. Callisto encounters her son Arcas, while in bear form. Arcas almost shoots Callisto with his bow and arrow but Zeus sweeps them both away into the sky, forming Ursa Major.

The Iriquois Native Americans interpreted Alioth, Mizar, and Alkaid as three hunters pursuing the Great Bear. According to one version of their myth, the first hunter (Alioth) is carrying a bow and arrow to strike down the bear. The second hunter (Mizar) carries a large pot — the star Alcor — on his shoulder in which to cook the bear while the third hunter (Alkaid) hauls a pile of firewood to light a fire beneath the pot (Wikipedia).

The First Nation heralds the return of the Blue Gods...

...and the Great Bear / Ursa Major

In closing, I leave you with this. Three movies premiered on the same day as the opening ceremony: The Wolfman (FLOWman/New Aquarian Man), Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief, and Valentine's Day. Percy resonates Zeus/Jupiter with his mastery of the Lightning Bolt/Arrow (even though technically he is the son of Poseidon (Poseidon = Water = Aquarian Age = Flow/Wolf).

Looks like Jupiter/Zeus is ready to strike the heart...

I did see the movie Valentine's Day today and in one of the last scenes of the movie, there was a poster of Jupiter in a kid's room before he is reunited with his mother. A truly divine moment.

2010 is the year that we must endure the Internal Apocalypse.

2010 is the year we align ourselves with the energies of Jupiter once our collective hearts are shattered.

2010 is the beginning of the end of the Mayan Calendar.

2010 is the year we make contact with Christ Consciousness and we all become Starchildren, the blue avatars of the Creator of All Things.

Happy Valentine's Day. Be Saintly. I love you all.

Christmas Without Fear

2009-12-22T09:54:00.000-08:00

I'm writing from the road, digesting all the alchemical synchs that have been intensely following me. I've been chased around by the number 42/24, as well as Jupiter 214/241/142, OZ/ZO/77 etc... I was on Facebook and I came across a Castle Age player named Jupiter. His/her avatar was the planet with the great red eye staring right at me. Jupiter is hounding me in earnest. He is showing me the path.

2010 will be difficult but Jupiter, the second star, will illuminate a higher consciousness to those who are ready to evolve.

Being that it is the Christmas season (not the 'holiday' season), I've noticed that more and more people are speaking the truth and refusing to let fear dissuade them from their mission of speaking freely and honestly. More and more people are blogging and tweeting about the lies and the deception that has penetrated daily life. The truth will always come out, eventually, even if it is not revealed in our lifetimes. The more the powers that be try to occlude the truth, the more fierce the revelation becomes.

The demons that run this world know that time is running out. What once was a drip of truth here and a drip of reason there is now overflowing into a tsunami. The powers that be (PTB) are quickly trying to stamp out whatever truth is out there, at whatever cost.

There have been two blogs that I've followed that have disappeared overnight. Google probably got a certain phone call and either pulled the plug on these blogs or "counseled" the authors to close the blogs, at the risk of more severe consequences. What we call 'free speech' may be deemed 'inappropriate content' to those who are in control.

The Healing Chamber was shut down after the blogger made available for download a revelatory E-book called "The Unveiling", an excellent treatise of the demise of the ego. After reading a portion of this E-book, I could see why this information would be a threat to those 'in the know'.

A second blog, Dead Man's Musings, was shut down shortly after the author published two poignant articles. One was a sharp analysis on the creation of military super-soldiers, the other was the fall of Tiger Woods, allegedly due to a breakdown of MK-Ultra programming. I'm sure the Tiger article got the blog shut down, which means the author got into waters he was not supposed to be swimming around in.

I'm sure even mentioning these former blogs may get me in trouble, but I am not afraid...and neither should you. My Christmas gift to all of you is to speak your mind. Be honest. Have opinions. Do research. If you see the wizard behind the curtain, tell us. Let the truth come out. There are those who will stop at nothing to destroy the truth. Always remember, the truth is the weapon of God. The truth is never defeated, only, at worst, delayed. Side yourself with the truth and God will protect you. Even if your home, your family, your possessions or even your life is destroyed by those who want to squelch the truth, like Obi-Wan, you will become more powerful than they can possibly imagine.

This is the 6th and final night of the Mayan Galactic Underworld and all hell may break loose since the PTB has lost all control and the house of cards is falling. It is of the utmost importance to keep truth and love close to your heart. Things of this earth are just things--lose your attachments.

I want to make this perfectly clear. I will not stutter. If I want to end this blog, I will make an announcement. If you visit Better Than Chicken and it says "blog not found" and I did not make a prior announcement, then either a) someone pulled the plug to silence me or b) I have been silenced.

For those in the back, let me repeat. I will not end this blog unless I say so. Otherwise, I have been silenced. For every blog that gets shut down, let 10 more blossom in its place. The wicked of the Earth know their last hour is at hand and would rather burn the planet than lose. It is already too late for them. Their plan has failed.

Christ Consciousness is enveloping the planet. We are the ones we've been waiting for. Christmas without fear. Only strength, love, and joy.

Namaste. Be saintly.

King Menes of Memphis "Blindsided"

2009-11-29T18:45:00.000-08:00

Some mythic symbolism in the promo poster for The Blind Side:

The Blind Side movie poster, courtesy Warner Bros.

Based on the true story of Memphis-born Michael Oher

Michael = The Great Archangel, "He who is like God"

Oher = anagram of HERO, Oher resonates King Menes of Egypt, King of the 1st Egyptian dynasty and founder of Memphis c. 3100 BCE

Oher wears #74

7+4 = 11 (resonates 11:11 galactic alignment)

W on helmet

W = 23 = 23 enigma

or W = double V = VV or \ \ / / = 11:11 (galactic alignment)

Oher born 5/28/86

= age 23 at the time of film release (another enigma synch)

Starring Sandra BuLLock

LL = inverse 77 = OZ/NY/Hell

Oher extremely tall in comparison to Bullock's character.

Resonates ancient Annunaki giants / Nephilim that once ruled the Earth

Both characters walking toward the sun

Sun = Ra/Osiris = Dionysian sun worship

= Black King Menas return to the Sun

The Title "Blind Side" implies one side is blind and one side is able to see = Masonic all-seeing eye.

Release date 11/20/09

= 11+20+09 = 40 = 4+0 = 4 = 2 + 2 = 11:11

Oher now plays for the Baltimore Ravens

Raven = Crow = Native American totem animal of Universal Law

Ravens' Uniforms are Purple, resonating the Ultraviolet Age/The Return of Quetzalcoatl/Christ Consciousness

The real Michael Oher, courtesy Wikipedia

It would seem that Michael "Hero" symbolizes the return of the Ancient BlacK Kings of Egypt, guiding humanity to the New Age of (K)Christ (K)Consciousness. Christ is the Ultraviolet Law, sequenced perfectly with the 11:11 galactic alignment.

Black Friday of the Soul: Suffering in the Sixth Night of the Galactic Underworld

2009-11-27T10:12:00.000-08:00

Chitzen Itza, Mayan Peninsula, Mexico

According to the Mayan Calendar, we have recently begun what is called the Sixth Night of the Galactic Underworld, beginning on 11/8/09 and lasting until 11/2/10. To those unfamiliar its workings, the Mayan Calendar is a map of 9 evolutionary periods. Each period is 20 times more condensed that the previous one. The pyramids of Chitzen Itza and Tikal are architectural representations of the calendar, each plane representing one tier in the evolution of consciousness. Each tier is divided into 13 equal parts, consisting in 7 'days' and 6 'nights', analogous to the Abrahamic and Christian legends of Genesis. Days and Nights, depending on the tier, could be millions of years or just weeks. "Days" usually represent a fruition or new paradigms, ideas or the development of a new consicousness. "Nights" typically represent a time period of upheavals, extinction, rest, destruction, reorganization or seeding. I can be said that "Days" and "Nights" resonate a yin/yang pattern of polarity as the universe evolves (Calleman, 2009).

Mayan Calendar Creation Cycles (Courtesy Carl Johan Calleman Ph.D)

As previously mentioned, we are in the Sixth "Night" in the "Galactic Underworld". From the map above, we are very close to the top of the pyramid, symbolized by the completion of creation. Therefore we are close to the end of the Mayan Calendar, which ends somewhere between 2011-2012, depending on the researcher you choose. The current mainstream interest and mania over 2012 has been typified by the recent release of Sony Pictures' disaster-porn flick "2012". It comes to no surprise that this film's release comes as we begin this Sixth Night.

I absolutely do not believe the world will end in 2012. However, one needs to look at the imagery of the 2012 movie and analyze it for what it is: the film is a egoic projection of the collective world mind. This collective (or mass consciousness) has the desire to decimate and destroy all old modes of thinking, established world powers and current mechanisms of human existence...and start over.

This collective desire to see the world destroyed in 2012 gives us an accurate idea of what's going on here during the Sixth Night of the Galactic Underworld. From the point of view of the world mind, we are literally living in a Black Friday. This is a time of great tumult. From a national/macroscopic view, economic structures are failing, joblessness and homelessness are increasing, wars and political tensions are escalating. From an individual/microscopic view, more people are suffering from depression, doubt, and express hostile behavior, health becomes more frail, relationships and friendships are failing, people are stockpiling food and weapons, there is a sense of isolation, distrust and anger.

In short, the Sixth Night will be a time of mass upheavals and destruction of once-stable psychological and social structures within humanity. In other words, the Sixth Night is a time of destructive preparation for the Seventh Day, the final time period of the Galactic Underworld, which in turn gives way to the Universal Underworld and the end of the Mayan Calendar. It is not known if the Sixth Night will also bring about natural or military disasters upon mankind. One would have to chalk that up into the realm of possibilities. However, one must exert extreme mental discipline and strength during this vociferous time in history in order to withstand the barrage of psychological stressors that will affect every person on the planet for the next 12 months. If the Mayan Calendar is correct, then the destruction of our old ways of life is absolutely necessary in order to lay the foundation for the final stage of the evolutionary cycle.

The Hindu god, Shiva, is the divine analog to the "Nights" in the Mayan Calender. Shiva is the Great Destroyer; the annihilating force of God. However, Shiva is also the Great Transformer; the preparatory force of God that readies the path for a new existence over the ashes of the old.

Shiva, God of Destruction and Transformation

The suffering and crises that you are experiencing are no illusion. You are evolving. You are discovering that you learning to live with less so that you can make way for a new style of living. Disattach yourself from poisonous or negative people. Bring truth and love into everything you say and do. You are not crazy and the pain you feel is actually the beginning of a very long birthing process into a higher consciousness. Be present as much as you can--today. God's plan for you is right on schedule, no more, no less. There is a chance that your physical body may not survive what is to come. Yet even in death, you are still evolving. Spend every moment with purpose. God will test you with increasing challenges. The Sixth Night will vibrationally separate the spiritually strong and the chaff. Align yourself with love and truth and you will develop into a new, evolved state of consciousness, individually and cosmically.

Be saintly.

This Week's Music Recommendation: The Life Of Clutchy Hopkins

2009-11-18T19:06:00.000-08:00

There is no question electronic music owes a great debt to the culture of hip hop. In fact, hip hop and electronic music have been inexorably intertwined for decades, from the electro era of Egyptian Lover and Afrika Bambaataa in the 80's to the modern contributions of RZA, Pete Rock and J Dilla. One would be hard pressed to find a popular hip hop record today that lacks the use of an Akai drum sampler, and 808 or a laptop. However there is one artist (or collective of artists) that transcends the use of electronic devices to create masterful works in hip hop: the enigmatic Clutchy Hopkins.

Clutchy Hopkins is the pseudonym of an undisclosed musician who creates richly textured downtempo music and hip hop beats, without the use of samplers. All the music from his discography is organic and instrumental. Even though his true identity is unknown, Clutchy is often portrayed as a disheveled, bearded man, depicted in old polaroid photos and decayed newsprint. Due to his talented output of music, rumors continue to swirl over who Clutchy Hopkins truly is.

The 2006 debut album, The Life of Clutchy Hopkins (Crate Digler Records), is a wonderful tapestry of instrumental joy. Every track of the album feels like a lost musical document from 1974. Some tracks have a raw, unfinished feel; a guitar or a drum solo would drift off to the end as if one is actually listening to an unfinished demo or an alternate take. It's mind-blowing when one realizes no track uses a sampler. It would be so easy to cheat. Every track is organic, seductive and hints at a bit of "green" inspiration. The only way I can describe this music is neo-instrumental hip hop. It's the perfect album to remix and throw a couple of MC's on the mic. In fact, MF Doom did just that on his 2007 promo EP, simply titled, MF Doom Meets Clutchy Hopkins. Borrowing from Global Communication's 76:14, every track is titled only by its time length.

Regardless of who made this album, it is a testament to the power of instrumental genius. Real hands made this music and not a laptop or a machine. Musician(s) killed the sampling star. The Life of Clutchy Hopkins is becoming harder to find, especially on LP. It's an album of happy, hazy sunshine with grooves that Q-Tip and Madlib would be proud of. Wait a minute. Isn't there a rumor that Madlib IS Clutchy?

Nah...Maybe!...Nah...Definitely!

Nah.

2 Years Left: The True End of the Mayan Calendar

2009-10-28T11:15:00.000-07:00

The hype machine is cranking at full speed. The Dionysian/Luciferian/High Masonic machine of Hollywood will be spewing new nuggets of fear and destruction as 2012 approaches. Move along, nothing to see here, as David Icke loves to quip. Cable is full of "documentertainment" shows discussing various apocalyptic theories, while flinging around Nostradamus like a party favor. It is amazing how many shows dedicate air time to sheer disinformation with a veneer of hubristic informational authority.

As the Mayan calendar end date of December 21, 2012 approaches, the theories about its significance has become mainstream. Although we are living in a time of economic, environmental, and political crises, it is no guarantee that we will destroy ourselves in nuclear conflagration. It is also no guarantee that we will be raptured in a massive social, spiritual or extraterrestrial event.

However the Powers That Be (the PTB) are opportunistically using the Mayan end date as another Y2K event, keeping the masses focused on a future date. They are instilling fear within the general population with disaster movies, terrifying "evidence" of what's to come and escalation of personal and social stressors. Fear removes presence and amplifies the terror of death. The inner critic of the ego feeds off fear and reinforces its need for survival at all costs. Like Y2K however, the 2012 end date is a non-event. It is a distraction designed to dissuade one from personal responsibility and spiritual development.

The biggest problem with all the 2012 hype is that the end date itself is wrong. The only major Mayan researcher who has accurately calculated the TRUE Mayan end date is Carl Johan Calleman. With strict conversion of the Gregorian dates to the Mayan baktun dates, Calleman calculates the true end date as October 28, 2011, a difference of 420 days! Calleman is increasingly being marginalized in the mainstream media and amongst his colleagues. Combined with the constant beating of 2012 into our collective heads, I think Calleman may be on to something. People who speak the truth always gets shuffled to the back of the room, or even silenced altogether. Calleman states:

Those that talk about December 21, 2012 are however, consistently with their logic, likely to continue to make projections on this fantasy screen in the future. What these people in effect are saying to people is “Do not prepare yourself for the New World now! Wait until the shift comes December 21, 2012!” since they do not recognize any quantum shifts before this point in time. To know the exact end date is then a matter of paramount importance to people, because it is their only way of knowing what quantum shift they are experiencing in the present moment. While many people advocating the December 21, 2012 date are simply jumping on a bandwagon to create some visibility for themselves (and sell various products) I feel it is time that they consider what kind of responsibility this implies also for other people. It is probably not an accident that the first major Hollywood movie, surely planned to confuse people about the Mayan calendar and tout the December 21, 2012 date is scheduled to be released in November of 2009 as the sixth night begins. The ruling media will then use the December 21 2012 date to manipulate the truth and of course there are always some that are willing to play along. It is quite easy to see in whose interest it is that the Mayan calendar in this way is projected to a time in the future when all alignment with it will be too late...

...more authoritative sources such as Don Alejandro Oxlaj of the Council of Elders are not just jumping on the bandwagon. As anyone who has seen the interview I made with him two years ago (available on DVD from Mayan Majix) he rejects the December 21, 2012 date as a miscalculation (Something that at the time was actually a surprise to me). He also carries the prophecy of the Thirteen Baktuns and 13 Ahau, consistent with the October 28, 2011 date (which is 13 Ahau). Unlike myself he however does not specify an end date, even though we do agree that the last katun shift (beginning of the last 7200 day prophetic period) took place in 1992. Around this katun shift at February 10, 1992 we can also very clearly see that major events, a quantum shift, shaping the whole world took place: The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union (December 25, 1991), the institution of the European Union, (February 7, 1992) and the launching of the World Wide Web (August 1991). By the time of the katun shift advocated by the December 21, 2012 people (John Jenkins says April 1993 in the “Doomsday” documentary on History Channel) the new world was thus already established. Also in the future the people embracing this end date will thus always be in the backwater of what is really happening in the world. This demonstrates the utmost importance of the end date and that those who want to be consciously part of the coming quantum shifts ahead and surf on the waves of creation that these generate will miss that opportunity if they reject the evidence based Mayan calendar with its end date of October 28, 2011. If you ignore the evidence and listen to the December 21, 2012 “alignment”*** prophets this is likely to have very serious direct consequences for your own life and how you approach the future. With the acceleration of time in the Galactic Underworld the difference of 420 days between the two end dates is literally as big as that between day and night.

It's interesting that the miscalculation of the Mayan end date is 420 days. In popular culture, 420 (read "four-twenty") is code for marijuana. Marijuana, like other psychoactive plants like ayahuasca, iboga and sativa divinorum, is gaining increasing popularity in the West, not for recreational use but for serious divination and ceremony. Western scholars and researchers, like Daniel Pinchbeck and Terrance McKenna, have done extensive research of how certain plants activate the pineal gland and the stimulate the flow of Dimethyltryptamine (DMT). Perhaps ancient, sacred plants hold tremendous amounts information for the activation of higher consciousness. Just ask any Bolivian shaman...

The Y2K non-event occurred in the year 2000, or MM. Therefore MM resonates KK as a millennial meme of cosmic/Christ consciousness. Other forums have already analyzed Y2K to death, as a non-event in itself. I don't remember who discovered this tidbit but the underlying message of Y2K is a code. Y2K = Why 2K? or KK (Kosmic Koncisousness); Why 11:11? Why not? The millennial film of cosmic awakening, The Matrix, was released in the USA on 3/31/1999 (the inverted 666 year) exactly 31 days before the beginning of Galactic Underworld period of the Mayan Calandar, using Calleman's calculations. The movie heralds the ending of the previous 244 year Planetary Underworld by revealing the secret of being the ONE--human becoming enlightened through Christ Consciousness, above the "planetary" rules of existence. Human becoming starchild.

Enlightened Neo finds purpose in saving himself from the Matrix through Comsic/Christ Consciousness

According to the Mayan Calendar, each Underworld is divided in to 13 parts (Seven 'days' and Six 'nights'). We are approaching the end of the 6th day of the Galactic Underworld and subsequently entering the 6th night. Nights in the Mayan Calendar are notorious for cyclical tumult, turmoil and change (internally (self) and externally (global)).

Map of the remaining cycles of the Galactic Underworld by Calleman

It is important not to fixate on 2012 as a future date of apocalypse or salvation, as much as to not fixate on 2011 as an alternate date. As Carl Calleman has stated presence is key. Don't wait for a future date for spirtual evolution. The quantum leap is happening NOW. Be open to the energies that are available to you NOW. Destroy the voices in your head that bring doubt, hate and fear. Your ego is dying. Personal vanity, money and comforts are fleeting. Be honest with your pain. You are suffering because you are growing. You suffer because you are asking the right questions. If you feel alone right now, take heart that you are not. Friends may forget you. Family will abandon you. Eventually, you will even shed the physical life on Earth. Yet, never forget that God is with you always. God created you. Therefore God is bound to you, to care and love you, to not allow you to fail. Believe it! Live with purpose. Be responsible for what thoughts come through your head and which words come out your mouth. Live with love and through love. Hang in there. Your mental apocalypse will become more intense but as long as you align yourself with the truth, you will be safe.

Alchemically yours. Be saintly.

The Ultraviolet Age Versus The Age of Ultraviolence

2009-10-22T15:18:00.000-07:00

Like the short-lived TV show said, "Look around you. Look around you. Look around you!" There is a color that is following you. There is a color that is permeating fashion, TV, movies, and design.

Here's a hint.

"The color purple. It's about life. It's about love. It's about us."

The reason I've been holding off on new posts is because I have been in observation-mode. I've been taking notes and collecting evidence on how pervasive the color purple (or violet) is in everyday life. There is an understanding that the fashion Nazis in Paris, London, Milan and NYC choose which colors are hot each and every year. However, there is more than fashion at stake here. The color purple is an unconscious vibration penetrating our reality--a galactic signal flare of an imminent shift in consciousness on the entire planet.

Look at the television. Watch a few shows and see how much purple there is everywhere you look: clothing on characters, a sportcaster's tie, a dance crew's sweats. Television is the magic mirror on the wall. It is the reflective and reflexive device of world wide consciousness. It is the most insidious invention ever created by mankind. Its images shape our decisions and opinions. In short, television alters our thoughts and, in turn, alters our reality. We need erectile help. We need to lose weight or be unloved. We amuse ourselves by the reality of others, cleverly edited to evoke a reaction. We watch leaders manipulate our emotions with teleprompted neuro-linguistic scripts.

We narcissisticly stare at the high definition mirror as the abyss stares back at us. Television is the modern-day mutoscope in which we voyeuristically watch the everyday lies, gossip, violence, fear, bloodshed and psycho-pathological loathing which are reflective within the collective unconscious of planet Earth.

We are living in the Age of Ultraviolence. Cop shows fetishize gory crime scenes so repulsive, they would have never aired 15 years ago. Reality shows glorify the stupidity of others. Young people, especially girls, are sexualized at younger and younger ages, blurring the line between teen innocence and pedophilia. Extreme porn, snuff, morgue shots and degenerate photos are easily found online for free. Racial hatred is on the rise. The masses of unemployed are becoming desperate and are developing a criminal element. We cheer or boo when a black man is "not the father". Housewives' catfighting is considered comical. Children stay up at night to get a peek at cartoons with scatological humor and psychotic images. Prime-time shows entertain us with dark symbols of the occult and illuminated. Starving models want to be on top. We readily assimilate the rapacious mores of The Age of Ultraviolence through the medium of television.

However, for every reaction there is an equal and opposite reaction. If ultraviolence is on the rise, then so too must there be an equal rise in spiritual evolution and higher consciousness. There is a divine force that is hijacking the high definition signal within the matrix in which we live. This pirated transmission is a code, easily undetected by the masses or the PTB (powers that be). The code is the color purple, the ultraviolet signal of the impending dissolution of old forms. It is the signal flare that divine rescue is imminent. The apocalypse of the ego and dualistic mass consciousness are at hand. We are now boarding flight 11:11. Hope you have your boarding pass.

Look around you. Take these video grabs of some popular shows for example. Purple clothes, items, even a purple maze (all in my brain!). This is just from a block of 2-3 hours of TV programming on the SAME broadcast day! Code purple is everywhere. It is the holy wink into the fourth wall. Everything's gonna be OK.

Code purple is hospital code for a psychiatric emergency or when an emergency ward cannot accept any more patients. Sorry, this ark is full...Could it be that we are undergoing a worldwide psychiatric emergency? Is the collective consciousness of humankind about to snap? Many authors, such as Aptekar, Heinburg, Turnbull, and others theorize that mankind has been suffering a collective post-traumatic stress disorder, due to its increasing separation from nature. This collective trauma may have been due to the mass extinction event of the last ice age over 11,500 years ago. Perhaps it was a polar shift, extraterrestrial agendas, or some other catastrophic event that bifurcated the human psyche into a state of ego-based dysfunction.

Interestingly enough, NBC's new medical emergency drama is called "Trauma". It also stars Cliff Curtis (CC/KK/11:11) who also starred in the movie 10,000 BC, which is roughly the time when early man was coming out of the Last Glacial Maximum.

Cast of NBC's Trauma

Violet is a true spectral color, unlike purple (a mix of red and blue). Yet purple and violet are casually interchanged in everyday conversation. Violet is the shortest frequency of visible light. Pure spectrum violet is outside the RGB visible spectrum--it is ethereal, or rather "kethereal", as violet resonates Kether, the topmost attribute in the Kabbalist Tree of Life. Violet also resonates the number 7, as it is the Sahasrara, the crown chakra in Hinduism. The violet crown is the supramental state of higher consciousness; the ultimate detachment from form and union with God through the pineal gland.

The city of Austin, Texas is known as the City of The Violet Crown. Austin (OZ-Tin) can be loosely translated as "aus zinn" or "out of tin" in German. Tin resonates the planet Jupiter since they share the same symbol. As shown on Centerportal and other forums, some native Peruvian populations who practice plant shamanism believe Jupiter is the land of the dead; a place where beings of a different vibrational essence rise into higher consciousness. Jupiter is also where the spiritual odyssey takes place as Galactic Ancient Astronaut Dave Bowman discovered in the movie 2001. Bow-man, the Sagittarian Man, shoots his way into the heart of the galaxy, via the great black monolith (the alchemical prima materia, according to Jay Wiedner) and becomes the starchild. Remember Usain Bolt? Code Purple is the galactic activation code to higher consciousness.

Both Bolt and Bowman resonate Sagittarius, the constellation that is

aligned with the center of the Milky Way, heralding the Aquarian Age of

non-duality and higher consciousness.

From Centerportal's blog: The alchemical symbol of Jupiter, which is the same as the symbol of tin.

The hidden numbers of 241 are revealed within the symbol (2+4+1=7)

Microsoft released its newest operating system, Windows 7. It is very likely that this will be the final incarnation of Windows before mankind really gets into artificial intelligence and the merging of nanotechnology into bio-organic tissue. The number seven resonates the color violet, the highest chakra. "Seven windows" is shorthand for the "seven windows of the soul"; the roadmap of all seven chakras. In 1939 (1+9+3+9=22=11:11), Samuel Joseph Reid wrote The Seven Windows, a spiritual book about the final seven words Jesus spoke before he died, "My God, why have you forsaken me?"

Jesus died, fearing his own mortality, just like any other human, only to be transformed after death into a being in highest communion with the divine. Jesus suffered his personal apocalypse, overcame the death of the ego and thus blossomed in glory.

Windows 7 heralds the end of the Information Age

The end of the ultraviolent, dysfunctional age of the ego is at hand. It also ends the Information Age, since biological life can no longer support the exponential pressure of data assimilation. Forms are dissipating. Nothing seems concrete. You may feel depressed, confused or lost these days. Friendships and relationships may fail or end. You may be prone to testiness or sensitivity. Your dreams may be more vivid or you may have more intense, horrific nightmares. Let these feelings pass through you. Ride it out by sharing with others, enjoying the arts or creative endeavors, getting fresh air and exercise and avoiding destructive behaviors. You are not used to these feelings because the vibrational frequency within you is rising. It is a painful process; it is an internal breaking of the seven seals of Armageddon. Soon our true selves will be revealed.

Economies are failing. Countries are bankrupt. Wars are killing innocent people. People are jobless and homeless. This is the external Armageddon of forms that are no longer useful for our advancement as a species. Code purple is the warning beacon that a massive shift in consciousness is about to occur. It's not necessary to panic, sell all your gear, shave your head and bang a drum all day. Don't obsess over things and people that you lose. The mass trauma and crises that are enveloping the Earth will bring great opportunities to evolve and escape.

All you have to do is one thing. Do everything out of love. Align yourself with love and you align yourself with the Creator, the great I AM. Saint Germain invented the Invocation of the Violet Flame, the practice of the I AM activity, the great practice of ascended masters such as Jesus, Maitreya and countless others who have escaped the cyclical trap of karma and time and became immortal. Violet is the activation of Christ Consciousness--the key to the infinite.

I leave you with hip-hop legend and policital activist KRS-One, in an impromptu interview with Alex Jones at the Green Room in Austin, Texas (!!!) Stop the (ultra)violence!

Be saintly.

New BoC Releases on Warp20

2009-10-02T08:41:00.000-07:00

So if you're like me and couldn't wait for the release of the Warp20 Anniversary Box Set, here are the new official Boards of Canada releases, Seven Forty Seven and Kaini Industries, remixed by Bibio. Seven Forty Seven will be a vinyl only release (!!!), no iTunes, no Bleep, no Amazon, no CD. I think the reason why is because the track can be played at both 33 RPM and 45 RPM. The 33 RPM verison is the official release, a droning, ghostly track, reminiscent of some pieces on The Campfire Headphase. However the magic happens when you play the track at 45. A completely secret and new piece of music emerges. The track becomes faster and more triumphant, like slamming Aquarius and Macquarie Ridge together. The reason for the vinyl-only release becomes crystalline. Keep in mind this is technically not a new release, since Seven Forty Seven first appeared on BoC's old website in the early 2000's.

,

Equally as impressive is Bibio's Remix of Kaini Industries, originally appearing on BoC's groundbreaking Music Has The Right To Children. This remix gets an amazing organic treatment to an already perfect track. The guitars have punch and strength while the spirit of the original song remains. The second half of the track extendes BoC's original Native American sample into a mini-track of its own and it is probably the best 61 seconds of music I've heard this year. This is definitely the best remix of a BoC track ever produced.

The Warp Box Set will ship on 10/5 so if you pre-ordered one, consider yourself one of the saintly. If not, get your order in ASAFP because there will be no repress and you probably don't want to pay an arm, a leg and your first born child to buy it on Ebay down the road. Click here for more info. Enjoy!

This Week's Music Recommendation: The Future Crayon

2009-09-30T08:57:00.000-07:00

I'm sorry that I haven't posted in a while. Real life sometimes gets in the bloody way. I'm working on a major post that requires pushing the limits of my ability to integrate information properly...so thanks for your patience.

This week's music recommendation is The Future Crayon by the UK pop group, Broadcast. Released by Warp Records in 2006, this album is a compilation of rarities and B-sides from the group's discography. Led by buttery-smooth vocalist, Trish Keenan, Broadcast mixes progressive, experimental rock with psychedelia and 60's post-London-pop cool. If you are not familiar with their sound, Crayon would be a great introduction. Standout tracks are "Illumination", "Ddl", and the absolutely beautiful "Poem of Dead Song". "Changing Wind" is particularly enjoyable, which is an alternate version from the original as heard on the groundbreaking debut album The Noise Heard By People. If you get the album on iTunes, you get 2 bonus tracks. This is a fun, dreamy album. Enjoy it on your headphones or just enjoy it while chillaxin' at the Moloko Vellocet.

What Michael Jordan's HOF Speech Should Have Been

2009-09-15T17:29:00.000-07:00

We just had an unprecedented week of vitriol and profane behavior in the world of sports, not to mention a bonus award for jackassery by Kanye West. As bad as Serena Williams and Roger Federer were in the sportsmanship department, Michael Jordan hit one out the park with possibly the worst hall of fame acceptance speech in the history of any sport. Instead of graciousness, humility and temperance, #23 instead chose to opportunistically blast every person he had a bone to pick with, from Isaiah Thomas to his high school coach.

You are an asshat, Mr. Jordan. We forgave you for 2 retirements, Space Jam, your crappy baseball career and most of all, we even forgive you for ending your career with the Washington ~~Bullets~~ Wizards. However, the last impression you will ever make as an NBA player has been squandered by the same bravado and arrogance that ironically made you a 6-time champion. The Hall of Fame is not your soap box; it is not a forum to puff your feathers in "how-ya-like-me-now" grandiosity. If God were the NBA commissioner, he should suspend your induction, turn back time to 1985 and force you to repeat your NBA career all over again...

...as Sam Bowie.

In case you are a fan of Better Than Chicken, Mr. Jordan, you may need to take a few notes. This is what your induction speech should have sounded like:

"Thank you. I was going to tell all my friends that I would say 'thank you' and walk off. I can't. There's no way. There's so many people I want to thank. In all my highlights, you never just saw me. Scottie Pippen was there...in every championship I won. You may be wondering why I picked David Thompson to stand up for me here today. As I was 11 years old, growing up in North Carolina, it was ironic that I wasn't the biggest Tar Heel fan at the time. However, I was in love with David Thompson when he won the championship in 1974. David went through a lot of trials and tribulations and I was inspired by him. Quite frankly, I shocked the shit out of him when I called him up.

As years passed, I embraced the University of North Carolina and made it my home as a young man. If I could, I would have every Tar Heel teammate up here with me now, along with my mentor and father figure, Mr. Dean Smith. However, no one can replace my own father, who I lost too soon. I miss him every day and I dedicate this induction to him. I also dedicate this day to Deloris, my mother, my family and everyone who has ever believed in me. My brothers gave me the gift of competitiveness and pride. My sister took extra classes so that she could stay with me in school. She even graduated college before me! You could say that competition is in our blood.

As many of you know, I was cut from my high school varsity team for a gentleman named Leroy Smith. Here is here tonight because I wanted him to know that being cut from that team was the best thing that ever happened to me. At the time I didn't think so, but it gave me the fire to be the best, to strive for perfection and to never give up.

There is so much to be said about the Bulls organization. Through all the highs and lows, it was the best time of my life. I thank the owner, Mr. Reinsdorf, former GM, Mr. Krause, my coaches, Doug Collins and Phil Jackson and most of all my numerous teammates and the fans of Chicago and around the world. This is your day too.

I also want to remind you that I am sharing the spotlight with so many great players and coaches today. My individual accolades should take a back seat today. Today there is only one accolade that matters. I am part of an honored few, the Hall of Fame Class of 2009. Remember that limits, like fears, are just illusions. Thank you very much."

See? How hard was that? Third time's a charm, Mr. Jordan. I'm glad you're retired for good.

9 9 9

2009-09-09T19:53:00.000-07:00

Today is September 9th, or 999. This is an extremely powerful and alchemical date. Tiana from Facebook was kind enough to remind me that 999 adds up to 27, which also adds up to 9 (2+7). Therefore, we have a number that reflects three 3rd dimensional nines (9+9+9=27) plus a 4th dimensional nine, the reduction of first 3 nines (2+7=9). This can be geometrically represented as a tesseract , a 3-dimensional cube with a hidden, 4th dimensional cube inside. This geometric shape is also known as a hypercube.

Each side of the hypercube is shaped like a pyramid, missing its capstone. The 6 pyramids put together allow the 4D cube to remain.

It can be argued that a 5D cube can be drawn inside the 4D cube in exactly the same fashion, and repeated again and again infinitely. In fact the hypercube is the building block of the infinite Metatron's Cube, the holographic blueprint of the Kabbalist Tree of Life.

Metatron's Cube

Metatron's Cube is created by forming circular nodes from corner to corner of the cube in exactly the same size. By connecting the center of each of the 13 circles to each other, every platonic shape will be represented in one glyph. This cube one of the most powerful geometric diagrams in existence. It is multi-dimensional. It is the foundation of stargates. It is Christ energy expressed mathematically.

Within the discipline of fractal mathematics, Metatron's Cube can be expressed with infinite cubes within infinte cubes. Circles representing female/yin/cool/implosive energy, lines representing male/yang/hot/explosive energy. Both male and female are in divine balance. A 3D cube is fractally exact as as a 4D cube, 5D, ad infinitum. This is the genesis of the mandala.

The mandala is a ritualistic diagram used for emptying the mind during mediation. It is also an analog to the Jungian unconscious. It is a symbolic representation of the entire universe, the infinite; God. From an aboriginal viewpoint, a mandala could be interpreted as the Sun, the giver of life and all things within the context of solar cultism.

Kabbalist Tree of Life and "Large Mandala" by artist Sarah Spector, resonating solar imagery

999 resonates the infinite cube, the Sun, the mandala and the eternal Christ energy that emanates through it. What does that mean for us? Plenty!

Today is really the Creator's rare reminder to be mindful of the infinite. The Christ consciousness, right now is flooding the Earth with higher vibrational frequencies. The stresses and unbalanced malaise that you may be experiencing during these difficult times is due to the fact that you are not used to these higher frequencies--like a child undergoing growing pains. Our limited perception has trouble grasping the infinite nature of reality.

In order to align oneself with the infinite is to not allow fear to control your life. Allow love to be the foundation in everything that you do starting today. Take time to meditate, improve your diet, exercise, drink plenty of fresh water to flush away toxins, and most importantly sleep. Sleep recharges your unconscious, astral self. Before drifting away to sleep, repeat in your mind what you want out of life or what positive changes you want to occur. Those last words that you repeat in your mind will be the homework assignment for your higher astral self to work on while you sleep.

Align yourself with people and environments that feed your soul. 999 reminds us that we are all divine beings. Troika Saint Germain explains it best:

"Spiritually, practice such things as: prayer, invocations, meditation, breathing exercises, chanting, rituals and, most important, pure INTENTION and WILL. Set a very strong intention that you ARE a Divine Being, WILL yourself to embody your Divinity, and live your life as such. Seeing the divine in all situations and all people is paramount. One of the greatest ways to raise your frequency and vibration is to consciously and intentionally, feel that every thing that you do, no matter how mundane or how simple, such as opening a door for somebody, is a reflection of your love and respect of all living things. To live your life with the intention of being God-like in everything you do, to see God in everyone, and respect everyone as such. Living your life with an intention of always being in integrity and honesty with yourself and others. To always look for a win-win situation, and cooperation with all of life, including animals, birds, trees, rivers, lakes, the ocean, etc., knowing that we live on a divine planet."

Begin your spiritual transformation today. Allow the infinite permeate and transform you. The era of spiritual transformations are at hand as we approach the Sixth Night of the Mayan Galactic Underworld.

Be Saintly.

I want to thank sangrall.com for its bountiful information on sacred geometry that made this blog post possible. I also highly recommend the works of Troika Celeste Saint Germain for more insight on 999.

Please also take some time to check out Sarah Spector's website for more of her wonderful artwork. She is a magnificent artist, friend and intuitive healer. Take some time to review her services here.

It's Just A Test

2009-09-05T13:07:00.001-07:00

If you follow unfiltered, alternative or uncensored news online, you may be reading about several disturbing scenarios that may take place in the near future:

- The media is underestimating the severity of the global economic collapse. Hoarding gold and silver may be a useless gesture as commodities may be confiscated in a national emergency. Unemployment is actually in the 15-25% range, rather than the 9.7% reported last week.

- There are rumors that Obama may be assassinated in the near future, triggering race wars and martial law.

- 9/9/09 is an occult date, the reverse of 666. Another major terrorist attack may strike the US, possibly nuclear, or the assassination of a major figure (see above).

- A major Swine Flu (H1N1) epidemic is inevitable because of the weaponized nature of the virus, created by recombinant methods used by major pharmaceutical companies. These same labs will create a vaccine for the masses. Problem-Reaction-Solution.

- States and municipalities are requiring mandatory vaccinations. This may expand federally to the point that people who refuse to get vaccinated will be fined or even quarantined in a FEMA ~~concentration camp~~ treatment center.

- H1N1 vaccinations my contain toxic chemicals that compromise the immune system or cause severe illnesses. This may be done on purpose for the elimination of certain populations sectors, i.e. culling the herd.

- Forced vaccinations may be a cover story for microchipping the population. A microchipped populace can be tracked by GPS 24/7 or even worse, may be used to remotely control brain waves or even self-destruct, killing the host.

- There is photographic evidence that super-thermite was used to collapse the World Trade Center on 9/11. The plane crashes were a diversion to implode the buildings.

- The current economic collapse and 9/11 are interconnected.

These and many more theories and warnings are part of daily, independent online news. Do the above statements frighten you? Do you feel stressed? Are you concerned for your safety and the safety of your family?

Consider this. Do you feel more informed knowing what might be going on behind mainstream headlines? Or are you feeding into the fear and causing it to manifest itself into more fear and more stress?

There is an EXTREMELY fine line between being informed and being depleted by fear. I used to read about 30 alternative news sources every day and I used to feel so informed. So in-the-know. I obsessed over what the Illuminati, the Zionists and the Elite were up to and what part I could do to be prepared for the worst. It frankly gave me a sense of superiority; the smart sheep that knew where the slaughterhouse is and who the abattoir was.

I realized that this sense of informational superiority was spurious. It lacked presence. It was an obsessive addiction to events that haven't happened. Do I think that government is controlled by an outside shadow government? F--k yeah. Do I think that America is on the cusp of collapse? F--k yeah. Do I think our morality, intellectualism and privacy are being compromised? Say it with me...

F--K YEAH

But what we fail to remember is that all this crap that is happening now is absolutely immaterial when we consider that our bodies are just temporary housings for our souls. The Sword of Damocles is hanging over every man, woman and child on this earth. One nuclear missile gets launched, it's all over. You can't stop the New World Order from happening. You can't stop terrorism by yourself. You can't stop bullets like Neo.

However, you can change yourself. You can spiritually transform yourself once you realize that you are only visiting. The things and events of this earth are small and temporary. Your consciousness is eternal and grandiose. Get yourself right spiritually. I'm not saying go to church, but if that is the way you become present with the creator, then by all means, GO. What I am saying is that you may lose your house, your job, your friends, your spouse, your rights, your freedom or even your life. Yet, the sum of all these things is insignificant when compared to the power of the Force. Your soul is the eternal living spirit that survives death. Your body is only a character in a virtual reality game, a means for the Creator to manifest itself and experience its own creation.

Instead of being obsessed on how the world ends or how your life may be disrupted in these dangerous times, live each day with a singular purpose. Live each day with love toward others and yourself. Raising your vibrational threshold should be your main purpose in life. Don't let the evils of others destroy the love and presence within you. Remain responsible. Care and protect yourself, your loved ones, family and friends. Soon these times will pass and you will be in a better place, where time, money and fear do not exist. Only love will exist.

This is just a test.

Boards of Canada - In The Annexe

2009-09-01T11:48:00.000-07:00

The second of a series of videos created by yours truly. This is a fan video of Boards of Canada's In The Annexe from the Geogaddi album. Click the YouTube link on the right side for my video channel. Enjoy the last days of summer with me. :)

The dance goes on...

2009-08-26T00:00:00.000-07:00

Life is so short, so immeasurably minuscule when compared to the infinite. Our lives are so complex, stressful and uncertain at times. There are times we feel great sadness, great joy, spirituality, betrayal, disappointment, ambition and a myriad of millions of different experiences. Yet we sometimes forget, even though we are always focused on our day-to-day challenges, the dance of life goes on. It goes on even after we die and leave this earthly plane.

We enjoy celebrations. We fall in love. We make friends and lose others. We make stupid decisions. We are haunted by regret. We laugh like children. We find music and art that moves us to the core. We learn to hate. We have children (or not). We admire nature. We find God or deny his existence. Through it all the stage of life is eternal theater.

Like the ancient Chinese proverb says, we are living in "interesting" times. People can't find work. Bills keep coming. People lose touch. Many feel alienated from others. Television and entertainment are becoming more violent, lascivious and titillating. Technology, while increasing our comfort and connectedness, is isolating people from normal, loving contact. Many teens today cannot form a coherent written sentence. Wars over resources are sweetened by the media with "infotainment" and jingoism in order to ensure eternal peace.

These interesting times are also unsustainable times. Eventually it will all collapse. Possibly when the shit goes down, some of us may not physically survive what is to come. But the dance still goes on. The divine Creator has a plan for every one of us. Many people have drifted away from my path. I've sacrificed many possessions and creature comforts. You may have had the same experience. But the Great Creator will always find a way to trim away the things and people that are no longer vital in one's life and, conversely, add value in other areas in one's life. We must always stay present and actively participate in the dance of life.

I am with you if you have lost a friend, a job, money or even some of your sanity. Everything that is happening in your life right now, shall pass. Good or bad, it's all part of the dance. Keep aligning yourself with the Creator. This is a necessary time in history to cleanse the old, dysfunctional ways of how we treat each other and the planet we live in. Get ready to let go of a lot and then a bit more. The infinite I AM won't let you down. Have faith and give love to everyone, especially the ones that won't/can't love you back.

Be saintly.

This Week's Music Recommendation: Mos Def

2009-08-25T16:02:00.000-07:00

This week's music recommendation is the new album from Mos Def, The Ecstatic. Mos Def returns, 3 years removed from his last album, the criminally wack True Magic. Mos returns to form with Def Poetry Jam flow and intelligence. I really enjoyed the range of styles on this album, from the roots of Brooklyn to high-concept experimentation with Bollywood. There are times one can tell Mos was purely enjoying the sound of his own cleverness and the fun is definitely infectious. Even when he sings (almost off-key), one can't help but expect a few chuckles from the peanut gallery. A couple of tracks toward the end of the album fall out of the concept range of the album but the whole effort is one of Mos Def's best. The guest appearance of Slick Rick (!!!) is worth the price of admission alone.

Lightning Bolt Strikes Galactic Heart Twice!

2009-08-21T21:04:00.000-07:00

Sagittarian-esque demigod Usain Bolt again pierces the heart of our galaxy, the Milky Way, TWICE at the Berlin World Championships. After smashing the 100m world record at 9.58 seconds on 8/16, Bolt crushes the 200m race 4 days later for a new world record of 19.19 seconds.

Notice how both the mascot and Bolt form two pairs of 11's with their fingers (11:11). 11:11 resonates the digital activation code of Cosmic Consciousness as explained in earlier posts. What's even more significant is that the mascot is a bear, echoing the Great Bear, Ursa Major aka the constellation of the Big Dipper.

The Big Dipper contains the star Polaris, our current northern celestial pole star. My guess is that the Great Bear mascot is uniquely pointing to Polaris, winking to us that we are crossing over from the Piscean age of antiquity into the Aquarian Age of Christ/Cosmic Consciousness.

Polaris is currently in Pisces, soon to cross into Aquarius...

This is the first time that anyone (or anything) joined in on Usain's Bolt's post-victory Sagittarian ritual, making this quite significant. Mankind is soon to be treated to the heavenly treat of the Galactic Alignment, whose heart is dead center within Sagittarius, AND the celestial crossover of Polaris from Pisces and into Aquarius.

According to John Mayor Jenkins, the Classic Mayans predicted the Winter Solstice (Sun) of 2012 would align itself with the center of the Milky Way. More specifically, it will align with the southern terminus of the Dark Rift, touching the elliptic of Sagittarius. Modern scientists calculated this would happen at exactly 11:11am GMT on Dec. 21, 2012. This is why both 11:11 and Sagittarius are significant.

The arrow (Bolt) of Sagittarius pierces the heart of the galaxy...

...as the arrow (Bolt) pierces your own heart into love and Cosmic Consciousness

As posted on The Secret Sun, The Blob and other blogs, Bolt can mean "arrow" and it can mean "lightning". Lightning resonates enlightenment and salvation. This reminds us of the Greek king of the Gods, Zeus, enlightening mankind with lightning hurled from his right hand. Lightning is divine intervention, illumination, destruction of old forms. In manga and animé, it's a common motif for characters to be "struck" by lightning to convey surprise, sudden realization or heavenly power, either in dramatic or sometimes comedic situations.

Bolt smashes the 100m @ 9.58 seconds.
9 + 5 + 8 = 22
22 = 11:11 (KK/Kosmic Konsciousness)

Usain BOLT shatters 200m world record in 19.19 seconds.
19 + 19 = 38
3 + 8 = 11 (again!)
1 + 9 + 1 + 9 = 20
2 + 0 = 2 or 1-1 (11 again!)

Lightning shows no mercy. It can tear trees apart and fry people out of their shoes. Lightning shatters the illusion of form. The archer points to the heart, the center mass. Through Usain Bolt's ritual, we are reminded to not just prepare for the physical, 3rd dimensional alignment of celestial bodies. We must also prepare internally in the spiritual, 4th dimensional alignment within our hearts--to align our hearts with the cosmic heart of the galaxy and evolve into the Great Cosmic Consciousness.

Until our hearts meet again...

Seeking Christ Consicousness in THX 1138 (I)

2009-08-20T15:20:00.000-07:00

I've mentioned the term "Christ Consciousness" in several posts. This is not a necessarily Christian or religious reference. As a refresher, Christ Consciousness can be interpreted as realization of self, higher/cosmic consciousness, enlightenment, dissolution of the ego, presence, ascension, unity of consciousness, Nirvana, or any other similar terms. Some people often confuse Jesus, the enlightened human that lived 2000 years ago and "The Christ Energy" that he transformed into. Jesus Christ is not a historical name. Jesus the Christ would be more accurate, viz a vie, Jesus, the anointed in Christ energy. To be enlightened is to be transformed or manifested in Christ energy, like Jesus, Mohammed, Abraham, Moses, Horus, Krishna, and countless others.

Christ/Cosmic Consciousness is also annotated symbolically as CC, KK, 33, 22, or 11:11, as seen in other blogs. Phonetically, C's and K's are interchangeable. C is the 3rd letter of the alphabet and K is the 11th, so CC would equal 33 (or 6) and KK is 11-11 (or 22 or 4 {2+2}), echoing the Mayan time code of galactic alignment, 11:11am GMT on 12/21/2012 (Remember kids, don't get obsessed with this date!). All of these annotations are a divine "shorthand", all pointing toward some sort of evolution toward higher cosmic consciousness.

I won't go into further detail about how CC relates to these annotations. I'm just giving you the Cliffs Notes. However, there is a wealth of information about CC in my "recommended reading" list that delves into the study of synchromysticism, the study of divine awareness through archetypal symbolism within the collective human mind. The authors and contributors of these blogs are too numerous to count and I owe them a lot a thanks for inspiring and influencing the content of Better Than Chicken.

My favorite film of all time is George Lucas' first feature film, THX 1138. Most people outside sci-fi circles have never heard of this film. In many ways, THX 1138 is equal to, or even superior to the Star Wars films, in terms of esoteric information conveyed to the audience. The Empire Strikes Back comes a very close second. THX 1138 is the corporate name of a human being, in the near future, who lives in a state-sponsored underground "utopia", in which its citizens are reduced to mere workers and consumers. The story is about his "awakening" and desire to escape the system. This film was released in 1971, long before we had to deal with prescription addiction, omniscient surveillance, reality TV, and police-state oppression. This film, released 28 years before the similarly-themed The Matrix, is superbly prescient in its Orwellian and Huxleyan quality.

I first watched THX 1138 when I was 5 and I intuitively knew what it was about. Only now, almost 35 years later, can I articulate it. The story of THX 1138, like Luke Skywalker in Star Wars, Neo in The Matrix, Dave Bowman in 2001, many other archetypal film characters, is a parable for anyone trying to escape the mundane world around them and into a higher plane of existence--a singular existence in Christ/Cosmic Consciousness.

In fact, THX embodies the rising of (K)osmic (K)onsciousness in his very name. The numerical suffix, 1138, contains the hidden Mayan Activation Code 11:11...

11 : [3+8] = 11:11
11:11 = KK

Of course, it's common knowledge that Lucas is a Scottish Rite 33rd Degree Freemason (33=CC). So it's not surprising that he is privy to grips of esoteric knowledge available to only a select few on top of the elite food chain. Lucas uses this information to initiate the viewer into alchemical truths, that on the surface may seem otherworldly or incredulous. Star Wars is no different, especially the maligned prequels. But that's another novel for another time.

(Spoiler Alert) Take this scene below for instance. THX, played by Robert Duvall, has had a crappy day at the factory. His performance is slipping and, in his society, lack of productivity is a sin. Penance is only available through an electronic confessional kiosk, similar to a sit-down telephone booth. Once inside, the state-sponsored deity, OMM 0910 (resembling Jesus), appears on a screen and the confessional begins. Notice how OMM is a double-entendre between OHM, an electrical or electronic measurement, and OM (Aum), the sacred syllable of Eastern philosophy. There is an endemic conflict between the artificial and the spiritual in THX's underground society.

THX 1138 seeks enlightenment from the artificial Jesus, OMM. Notice the single, illuminated eye staring at you.

THX already knows that he doesn't belong. He is resisting his programming but he seeks external salvation from an artificial, electronic source. It's not real. What's worse is OMM's participation in the entire confessional in an automated recording, most likely the same recording every other citizen receives. Lucas then reveals a devastating secret about OMM, that most people miss when they see this film. Resonating the Wizard of OZ, Lucas shows us what's behind the curtain; behind OMM's falsely illuminated face and inside the guts of the machine. What do we see...?

...a lizard!

Why the deuce would Lucas put a lizard inside this booth? In the 2004 version of this film, Lucas added some CGI wings and antennae on the lizard. Why would he do this as well? IMHO, this scene is very telling. For you David Icke fans, this may be a allegorical interpretation of how aliens or reptilian races are in control of not only religious institutions but all of the elite echelons of society. The hidden hand that controls society is extraterrestrial. In addition, the curious way this scene was edited makes it look like either a) the lizard is monitoring the conversation between THX and the OMM recording or b) the lizard IS OMM. As for the feathers and wings, is Lucas trying to show an accurate portrayal of what a reptilian looks like, albeit on a smaller scale? Perhaps the entire movie is parable of how we humans are controlled and spiritually manipulated by aliens or some type of reptilian race in a lower (underground) vibrational frequency of existence. To escape, one must raise their vibrational frequency into a higher level of (Christ) consciousness. You won't find the this (KK)onsciousness in a phone booth, though. You have to see through the veil, like Dorothy did, and see the truth within yourself.

Part 2 to come between now and later...Be saintly.

PS: If you still have trouble wrapping your head around aliens and their interference with human affairs, check out the works of David Icke, click on truthism.com, or just Google "reptilian" and see how many hits you get...I also highly recommend the John Carpenter horror classic, They Live.

Today is 2012

2009-08-17T14:08:00.000-07:00

I've been very interested in Mayan and Mesoamerican culture since my childhood days of Dungeons & Dragons, reading about Quetzalcoatl/Kukulcan and other deities, as I try to roll d20 saving throws. I first heard of the Mayan calendar end date of Dec 21, 2012 when an event called the "Harmonic Convergence" occurred in the late 80's. For the uninitiated, this end date was determined by the complex Classic Mayan mathematical and calendrical systems; an end of our current epoch of history and a culmination of over 16 billion years of the evolution of consciousness.

In 1999, I discovered the works for the famous José Arguelles, and years later Barbara Hand Clow, Carl-John Calleman, and John Mayor Jenkins. These various theories about the Mayan end date of 2012 continue to be debated. Internet forums and fly-by-nighters still argue the end date is nothing but another Y2K non-event, while others believe we could be headed for world-wide catastrophe. Some theorize 2012 will be the beginning of a new era of singular, harmonious, planetary consciousness--a dimensional shift.

Regardless of what camp one ascribes to, it's difficult not the get caught up in the 2012 hype, especially as we get closer and closer to the end date. Hollywood, of course is beginning to cash in, just like it did in 90's with disaster and asteroid movies. I'm going to avoid all the Bruckenheimer-esque predictive programming movies, like the upcoming 2012, with John Cusack. These mainstream movies are just disinformation tools for the (m)asses and seriously detract from the real message the Mayans were trying to convey to us all those centuries ago.

In fact, why are we all obsessing about 2012, anyway? Even if one follows Calleman (like me) and believes the Mayan end date is really in October 2011, the point is still missed. We are using a date in the future, whether it be Y2K or 2012, and diverting all of our attention and energy to it. Even I was guilty of it. By obsessing with some future date, we are ignoring our presence and living in the NOW.

The fallacy of some Christians is to pray and wait around for the return of Jesus' Second Coming, while ignoring the fact that Jesus is HERE and NOW. Buddhists, Mulisms and almost every organized religion on earth makes the fatal mistake of waiting for some external event or end date to fulfill a destiny or validate a particular group's existence. Author Eckhart Tolle expressed that waiting for a future event implies that you do not want the present. Projecting the future diminishes the quality of one's life in the ever-present NOW. This also unequivocally applies to the Mayan end date.

There is great peril in sitting and waiting around for a cosmic birthday party in 2012. It lacks self-responsibility and spiritual discipline. I raise my hand and say that I am guilty of this type of laziness, of wanting conscious evolution to just happen instead of really working toward it. To obsess of a date in 2012 (or any date), you are projecting fear of the present. You are trying to "cope with a situation that doesn't exist" as Tolle continues. We have the resources and spiritual capacity to deal with today, not some imaginary event in the future. If you wait for a prosperous era, it will never come. You have to work on raising your consciousness today. God will not "level up" your cosmic consciousness so flippantly just because there is a special date in 2012. If that were the case, we can all just quit our jobs, beat our drums and chill out for the next 3 years.

The film "Waking Life", released on the cosmic odyssey year 2001, addresses the novelty of presence in two key scenes. One scene takes place on the Brooklyn Bridge, which synchromystically became an evacuation route on 9/11. There the main character, Wiley, meets Thomas "Speed" Levitch. Speed explains that a person is only a dream figure in another person's dream. He then speaks one of the most important lines in the film:

"...the ongoing WOW is happening right NOW!"

Released a full eight months before 9/11, we were treated to the biggest secret in the quantum activation in human consciousness--to live in the NOW. To be eternally present dissolves the dead past and the unrealized future. All the magic happens in the vertical axis of now, rather than the dysfunctional horizontal axis of past/future (Tolle).

Towards the end of the film, director Richard Linklater makes a cameo. While playing pinball, he tells Wiley about a Philip K. Dick novel in which today is 50 AD and the return of Christ is imminent according to the Book of Acts. However, some sort of demiurge (Satan, or more correctly, the dysfunctional ego) makes us forget the date and so, we never see the return of Christ. Linklater adds that today is not 50 AD, or any other date for that matter. The only date that matters is the [present] instant. In this instant, God is inviting us to join him in eternity, but we always say no. The result is liner time, in my opinion. To deny God's invitation in the NOW is a trap made by the mind-controlled ego, a prisoner of past regrets and future hopefulness or despair. NOW is the "Holy Moment" as referenced earlier in the film.

So, too, it is not 50 AD, 2009, 2012 or any other date. NOW is the date. The Mayans granted us a magnificent gift. 2012 is the Creator's invitation but we don't have to literally arrive at that date to enjoy the fruits of living in the now. Christ's energy is returning today if you accept it. That is the great transformation, to live in the NOW. We were put on this earth to finally discover the secrets of the Christ Consciousness, destroying the collective ego that has caused individual and collective dysfunction for thousands of years. Yet, the Creator is not going to just wave a wand in 2012 and everything will be golden, whether there is an apocalypse or not. We have to take responsibility for our dysfunctions today so that we can relinquish mind-identification and therefore obtain the spiritual transformation of higher consciousness, NOW.

Make today the Mayan end date. Today is 2012.

Everyone knows I love Boards of Canada, so here is a fan video I created for "Slow This Bird Down" from The Campfire Headphase album. Please rate it and comment if you can. Enjoy!

Poetry Is A Weapon

2009-08-15T16:59:00.000-07:00

Archived from Saintsantiago.com 2/9/09

I just finished watching the third of 3 DVD's of Russell Simmon's severely underrated Def Poetry Jam. I am completely amazed by the sheer talent and force of poets young and old. It is impressive on how intelligent people of all races can break down the barriers of lies and ignorance and shatter this reality with the spoken word.

Poetry is hip hop in it's purest form. Born from African and Asiatic oral traditions from thousands of years ago, people from all walks of life speak the truth from their hearts. Men, women, black, white, gay, straight, Jews, Buddhists, revolutionaries, pacifists, comedians, actors, and others purge and decode the language of everday existences. Words and rhymes transform the joys and sorrows of human existance into something beautiful.

It saddens me that our children and our neighbors are so dumbed down with violent and sexualized television, video games, celebrity worship, apathy, and ignorance. I am sure this is done by design. Our public schools are nothing more that indoctination centers to churn out worker bees--destined for the meat grinders of corporate wars over resources, minimum wage jobs or a life of prison.

The artistry of spoken word simultaneously stimulates the right brain with its creativity and the left brain with its direct message to the audience, without the veneer of a beat or musical track. Art destroys greed. Art destroys prejudice and hatred. One has no other choice than to admire the poet and his/her personal message.

If you have children, encourage them to get into the arts. Get them to learn about art, teach them to draw or enroll them in music or dance classes. Take them to museums and learn about your favorite artists together. Turn off the television and encourage them to read. It's OK if they like to text but they must also learn to read and write with conviction. Artists are crtical thinkers, both pragmatically and aesthetically. Artists will be ones to fight against those elite assholes who try to take advantage of us because they assume we are ignorant sheep.

If you don't have children...do the same as above.

A day will come when we no longer will enslave others by the saying "time is money". One day time will equate to art.

Peace.

This Week's Music Recommendation: Lost Children Of Babylon

2009-08-15T15:47:00.000-07:00

This week's music recommendation is Lost Children of Babylon's "Where The Light Was Created--The Equidivium".

I'm really into socially conscious/knowledgeable hip hop music right now (don't you dare call it backpacker rap!) Lost Children of Babylon have been around for a while but I can't believe I missed it! This album is really like a shot to the pineal gland, literally taking the listener to dizzying heights as the alumni from Wu-Tang and Jedi Mind Tricks break down the origins of the universe, the soul of man and esoteric knowledge of existence. If Fulcanelli was an MC from Egypt, this is what he would rap about. Some tracks get tripped up on their own academia, but this debut album is cannot be missed.

Cowboy Bebop - Television

2009-08-15T15:01:00.000-07:00

An excerpt from the animé masterpiece, Cowboy Bebop, episode 23 (wink, 23 enigma), "Brain Scratch". One of the best episodes in the series. Pay attention to around 3:09...

Do you want to know the greatest and also the worst device that humans ever invented?

It's TELEVISION.

Television controls people by bombarding them with information until they lose their sense of reality. Now television itself is becoming a new religion. Television has created a people who believe instantly in dramatic fantasies who can be controlled by tiny dots of light...

25 Things I Wish My Dad Told Me About

2009-08-15T14:21:00.000-07:00

A few weeks ago, I celebrated what would have been my dad's 70th birthday. He even has a virtual shrine on Facebook. My dad died of a brain aneurysm right before Christmas Day, 1990. I still miss him. Those who knew him knew he was a giant of a man. 6"7", all muscle. Strong, artistic, musical, an introspective genius. He was an intolerable a-hole at his worst; a glorious edifice of black power at his best. His list goes on: Master's degree in Fine Arts, multiple-sport athlete in his youth, ranked chess master, loved John Coltrane, Teddy Pendergrass and Bach, worked double and triple-overtime shifts to support my mom and me. Toward the end of his life, still healthy as a horse, he became more and more dissatisfied with his life and spewed his anger toward, in his eyes, his brash, rebellious 20 year old son and the mother that always defended him.

After the initial grief and difficulties after his sudden death, my mom and I looked to each other for support. We taught each other to write checks, take care of the house and keep widow hunters at bay. I even taught my mother how to drive a car even though I didn't have a driver's license at the time. It was a fresh start for both of us. In a way, I felt like young Salieri, who was suddenly freed from his father's iron grip and able to pursue his dreams as a classical composer. However, for the next 20 years, I had no father figure. A lot of the crap I had to endure in my life, I had to figure out on my own by trial and error. As flawed and dysfunctional my father was at times, I sorely miss his street smarts and wise advice. So I decided to publish a list of things my dad would have told me if he was still alive. I'm sure he is in a better place, still watching over me and protecting me, listening to Live at The Village Vanguard and painting another masterpiece.

25 Things I Wish My Dad Told Me About

- Don’t ever buy the latest, greatest gadget, wait 2 years when it’s cheap.

- Men take risks even when those risks make you unpopular.

- Needing approval from others is a weakness.

- Once a year, clean out your closets and garage. Sell or donate everything you don’t need. Decide what relationships to keep or let go.

- Every man has a vice.

- Everyone deserves a second chance but not necessarily a third.

- People who think only as themselves are vampires.

- Be a giver just like your friends.

- People who remember your birthday (even belatedly) are the ones you keep in your life.

- It’s ok to forgive someone and never speak to him/her again.

- Only get dumped once. Don’t stick around for him/her to hurt you again. Men and women can never be "just friends".

- Don’t hide behind a computer to meet women. Go to a bar and buy a woman you like a cosmo, mojito or a margarita. Tell her she looked thirsty and go from there.

- Learn to dance. Even a beginner can charm a woman just for trying.

- Save every month by buying a little gold or silver and put it in a safe. Sell it when times are hard. Buy more when times are good.

- Every new day is a gift.

- You will lose more than you win. Get used to it. The good thing is that losing will help you grow.

- Never sacrifice your integrity.

- Everyone has his or her own path. Let them go if you part company.

- Look people in the eye when you shake their hand.

- Don’t drink fruity drinks. Either buy a beer or something hard on the rocks.

- It’s ok to cry.

- Be unique. Don’t buy what everyone else buys, drives or uses. Get what works for you.

- Always take some time to spend with yourself.

- Turn off your TV and read more.

- Never buy a woman shoes. She will use them to walk out on you one day.

I love you, dad.

Welcome to BTC!

Greetings all.

Welcome to my premiere post on my blog, Better Than Chicken. I've had this domain for several months and am now just getting around to the first post. Firstly, let's talk about the name "Better Than Chicken". It's a name you will surely remember if you want to follow my blog. It's also a nod to my African-American heritage on my late father's side. Like the brilliant Dave Chappelle, I take a stereotype and skew it. I empower it but subverting it. Look, everyone and his mother loves chicken. It's not a black thing, or a Latino thing, or a Kentucky Fried thing--everyone effing loves chicken! It is one of the tastiest, most enjoyable foods on the planet (sorry, vegetarians). So I aspire humbly, that my words and thoughts will enrich someone, somewhere. I want what I put on this blog to be better that chicken, in other words, better than your most favorite thing in the world.

I've been out of work for the better part of 8 months as of this writing. Like many of you out there, work is hard to find, disgustingly frustrating to be more appropos. I was making almost six figures, fancy title, all that shit. Then it was all gone. Luckily I have some savings and a loving family to keep me going. Unfortunately, the skill set that made me valuable in 2001 means squat in 2009. I have friends with MBA's, doctorates, managerial/directorship experience, and had other positions far beyond my own who can't find work, not even at Home Depot or Kohl's. It makes no bloody sense to me. I ask God for strength everyday to fight the demons of despair and depression.

So I sit here and ask myself, "Who am I?" "What do I love to do?". I love my family and friends. I love music. I love to write. Everyone tells me how great a writer I am. "Whatevs," I scoffed. there is no money in writing. I didn't want to be starving-artist-guy. The only writing gigs I could find are unpaid internships and $5 Yelp reviewers on Craigslist. F that...that won't pay the mortgage or my $600 car payment. I used to be a DJ. A really good one in fact, but I never made it big. Yet, I still love music, mixing and producing. My music makes a few bucks here and there but John Digweed or Markus Shultz aren't asking me to warm up for them in Ibiza.

Times are different now. I think it doesn't matter if I become rich in music or writing. I will do both. If I believe my music and my words are truthful and golden, then one day the gold will come. If it never happens then I still win because I didn't squander the talents God gave me. This blog will be a integral part of my soul. I may say things you disagree with or hate. Other times, we will be in sync. I will get political at times, sophomoric at others. I will be your conspiracy brother, your DJ, your lost friend from afar. Whenever I am in the wrong, I will try to be gracious and ask for forgiveness.

I want to be your personal alchemist, transmuting lead minds into spiritual gold. I am the Omega Man...the last of my kind. I have no intentions of coming back once I'm gone. My life sentence on Earth is very brief, compared to the billions of years this universe has existed, so my time is precious. The time is right and the time is now.

I love you all and be saintly.
