PSYCHEDELIC VISIONS
Republished by Blog Post Promoter
The term psychedelic is derived from the Ancient Greek words psihi (ψυχή – psyche, “soul“) and dilosi (δήλωση – “manifest”), translating to “soul-manifesting“.
A psychedelic experience is characterized by the striking perception of aspects of one’s mind previously unknown, or by the creative exuberance of the mind liberated from its ostensibly ordinary fetters. Psychedelic states are an array of experiences including changes of perception such altered states of awareness or focused consciousness, variation in thought patterns, mystical states, and other mind alterations. These processes can lead some people to experience changes in mental operation defining their self identity (whether in momentary acuity or chronic development) different enough from their previous normal state that it can excite feelings of newly formed understanding ranging from revelation and enlightenment. Psychedelic states may be elicited by various techniques, such as contemplation or meditation, which cause spiritual transcendence beyond the body and the physical universe.
Delusion or hallucination, on the other hand, can be caused by drugs, shock, accidents, operations, duress, pain, hynopsis and other external impacts that force the spiritual being to leave the body against their will. Revelation, enlightenment, understanding and freedom are already within you. You can reveal them naturally with study, spiritual discipline and persistence.
HOW TO PEPARE FOR YOUR REINCARNATION
Republished by Blog Post Promoter
Everyone lives, everyone dies…and almost everyone is reincarnated, usually. Reincarnation planning is not socially acceptable in Western culture, where most people believe whatever they are told by priests and preachers, who don’t know anything at all about what happens when you die! However, many people in India, China and Tibet take the whole idea in stride. However, what very few people do is plan ahead for their next lifetime BEFORE they die!
So, if you are pretty sure you’re going to be coming back (again, and again, and again) as a newborn baby, here are a few common-sense suggestions to prepare everything so you will have a healthy, safe, sane, joyful and secure next lifetime.
The first thing you will need to find is a Mother and a Father. The Mother is much more important than the Father, so your most careful research must be to find a really good Mom!
A really good Mother should be a woman with the following qualities:
- Your New Mom must be very aware of the spiritual universe, and be very certain that she knows that you and she are both Immortal Spiritual Beings.
- Ideally, Your new Mom is someone you love, and trust and admire and desire to be with, and care for, for her entire lifetime, and yours.
- Your New Mom should be your very best friend, as you will be closer to her and depend upon her more than any other person in the world.
- She should be wise, educated, and cultured, physically fit and strong.
- She should be a great cook, and know how to grow her own organic vegetables.
- She must be a great dancer, artist, and music lover.
- Your New Mom should be willing and able to communicate with you about anything.
- She should be an intelligent teacher, a good listener and a student of wisdom and a seeker of Truth.
- Most of all, Your New Mom should be full of Joy and Love and Compassion for all living creatures, especially You!
- It is also very nice if Your New Mom has perfect breasts! (This makes feeding time much more pleasurable.)
Once you have found and created a loving relationship with Your New Mom (before you die, of course) there are a few practical matters to take care of:
- You must go to live near Your New Mom, so that you and she will be able to find each other when you depart from your old body. You will be a disembodied spiritual being, so you must be very, very certain that you know where she is when you die! Ideally, Your New Mom will already be pregnant when you leave your old body, so you don’t have to hang around waiting for your next body to be born!
- If possible, Your New Mom and Father will have a very stable, loving, sensible relationship! Having a really good Mom and Father is a huge bonus! You New Dad should be strong, intelligent, athletic, educated, compassionate and fun loving. It will help if he likes kids too!
- Your New Mom should live in a safe, quite, clean and beautiful natural environment where you and she can have a happy life together!
Next, get your legal and financial affairs in order. Instead of leaving all your hard earned money from this lifetime to your ungrateful kids or your lawyer, plan to leave everything to YOURSELF so you can enjoy it in you Next Lifetime!
- Arrange your Last Will and Testament to bequeath your money, property, assets, insurance benefits, investments, and any other valuable goods to Your New Mom. (If, for any reason, your new parents get divorced you will want Your Mom to have the money to support BOTH of you, so she doesn’t have to go to work for a living, and take you to a stupid day care center or public school!)
- Make sure Your New Mom has copies of all your legal documents, and financial documents BEFORE you leave the body.
Now, give Your New Mom a number of your special, personal possessions, photographs, and your personal memorabilia to keep for you. When you enter into you next body at birth, you will be able to identify these objects. This will be “proof” that you and Your New Mom can use to verify that YOU and really YOU! (The Llamas of Tibet use this trick to identify their fellow Llamas after death and rebirth.)
When the Blessed Event of Your Reincarnation draws near, leave your body as painlessly as possible, and hang out with Your New Mom until your Birthday comes! ( Read the book “1,001 Things To Do While You’re Dead” ) for handy tips about things to do while your waiting for your next body to be born.
Finally, swoop down into the body, assume complete responsibility for it, and for Your New Mom, and begin enjoying your Next Life!
GREATEST GEEK
Republished by Blog Post Promoter
THIS IS THE FIRST PAGE OF A VERY EXCELLENT ON-LINE “COMIC BOOK” ABOUT NIKOLA TESLA. READ THE ENTIRE THING HERE: Why Nikola Tesla was the greatest geek who ever lived – The Oatmeal
Additional notes from the author:
- If you want to learn more about Tesla, I highly recommend reading Tesla: Man Out of Time
- Also, this Badass of the week by Ben Thompson is what originally inspired me to write a comic about Tesla. Ben’s also got a book out which is packed full of awesome.
- There’s an old movie from the 80s on Netflix Instant Queue right now about Tesla: The Secret of Nikola Tesla. It’s corny and full of bad acting, but it paints a fairly accurate depiction of his life.
- The drunk history of Tesla is quite awesome, too.
- X-rays: just to clarify, Tesla did not discover x-rays, but he was one of the early pioneers in its research.
- Cryogenic engineering: I’m referring to the cryogenic engineering that has to do with using liquified air to cool a coil and reduce its electrical resistance (Patent No. 11,865), not freezing people and waking them up in the future so they can fight Wesley Snipes.
- Transistor: Tesla’s influence on the modern transistor can be found in patents 723,188 and 725,605. (a better explanation here)
- Radio: Tesla was the nicest geek ever until he decided to sue Marconi a few years later. 8 months after Tesla died, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Marconi’s patents on the invention of radio. So Tesla eventually won that battle, although he was dead by then.
- Tesla VS Edison: I could write a novel on the differences between Tesla and Edison, but seeing as how this comic is already huge I decided to leave many things out. For instance, Edison killed cats and dogs, but Tesla loved animals and had a cat as a child. Originally Tesla wanted to be a poet, but after getting zapped by static electricity from his kitty he was inspired to study the effects of electricity. One could vaguely construe that Tesla’s cat was responsible for the second industrial revolution, which arguably makes it the most awesome cat who ever lived.
Edison believed that fossil fuels were the future and that there were enough resources in South America to provide for the next 50,000 years. Tesla believed that renewable energy sources like hydroelectric, solar, and wind power were the future. This is remarkable because in the 1890s there was no such thing as “going green,” so Tesla’s ideas on conservation were very forward-thinking at the time. (From OATMEAL)
DOWNTON ABBEY: AN EGALITARIAN OVERVIEW
Republished by Blog Post Promoter
DOWNTON ABBEY — an egalitarian overview for viewers of “public” television, financed by “charitable contributions” from the Mega-wealthy, who want you to think you deserve their pity:
Pretentious, self-indulgent vulgarity, greed, gluttony, disdain for the peasant class, grotesque extravagances of the Imperial British social / economic establishment in England, flaunting the arrogance of myopia of assholes who arduously grunt through an incessant utter waste of creative resources lavished upon the self-appointed royalty, who murder innocent wildlife for amusement, pontificate with gratuitous condescension their disdain for humanity, while pretending piety, by the murderous thieves who stole the wealth of many continents by brutal force of arms so they can stuff their flaccid faces full of culinary delicacies five times a day while attired in evening dress and catered to by Caucasian slaves — without regard to the Karmic consequences of their criminal decadence! This tedious ordeal is made to appear “civil” through the cinematic ruse of elaborately aesthetic costumes, quarters and cutlery and a synthetic English countryside where it never, ever rains…. (it’s not a Reality Show, but then, Reality Shows are not “real” either….)
