The Naked Philosopher...

Posted on March 1, 2009 at 6:00pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

For those that know me my life is literally an open book. For those that don’t me, I am an explorer of the human mind and soul in relation to this existential reality we find ourselves in. I seek answers, which are not always easy to find and comprehend, with the simplicity of a fool. Possessing no super powers, I am a common person with limited ability, a naked philosopher who harbors an intense compulsion to push onward. I am fearless in the fact… Continue

I Got To Be Me, I Got To Be Free

A member of the freedom generation,

I sang the anthem of instant gratification.

I walked the walk, and now I talk the talk.

I had to be me, I had to be free.

Free to take that toke,

Free to cuss when I spoke,

Free to light that joint and take my poke,

Free to swill alcohol until I choked.

To spend the rent money on the ponies.

I wasn’t cool, just another phony.

Thinking I was free I… Continue

I too am from California but I live in italy.
If you would like, take a look at the story group I started. It is filled with so many wonderful inspirational stories. I started it when Gaza was started up, to have a place to relax and smile and share international stories.
Hope you enjoy iPeace. It is mind blowing!!
Nice reading about you on your profile. I enjoyed it and respect you for writing it!
Take a look at the story group - would be great if you could write something there.

> I would like to welcome everyone to the Spiritual Fasting Group starting on 11th of January for at least 21 days. Fasting is very powerful to bring forth things in your life that are positive and remove anything that is negative. Fasting purifies the spirit and enhance the mind and body to a healthier life. See below:
>
> Know that all human hearts are welcome here, regardless of one's color, creed, condition or philosophy, because everyone is just like you and me--wanting happiness, and disliking suffering. In other words, seeking joy and freedom from suffering is the birthright of all living beings (not just us humans).
>
> The word 'spiritual' has many connotations, but all of us who've done prolonged, skillful fasting know our mind is clearer, sharper and more efficient--a greater clarity of consciousness. By using this fasting-enhanced clarity, our journey into the human interior can reward us with many essential correctives to the extreme materialism of our external culture and its dominant sciences. Also, just as our own inner-mind becomes clearer, our own extrasensory instinct becomes keener. Thus, we find ourselves more in tune with the gentle voice of Nature and its Natural Laws. And so, the increase in energy prolonged fasting confers is our own reward for getting back in touch with these so-called Laws of Nature.

> World Peace and World Love

News: Wars and rumors of Wars around the world, Palestinians and Jews are being murdered, Poverty, Environment dying, Fla. woman likely jumped overboard (suicide), In Phila. 6 dead and 3 wounded (violence), Cheyenee, Wyo earthquakes 3 days straight, China border 3 tremors Dec. 27th and In May 80,000 people killed from earthquakes and more. It is imperative that we fast and ask for the relief of suffering around the world. What affects one affects all!!!!! If need advice on how to fast, please ask at anytime-we have a teacher to teach us.
