About Me

In 1967 when I was 16, I decided to hitch the 35 miles up to San Francisco to see what was going on. It was the Summer Solstice, and I walked into the first day of the Summer of Love. That is when I began studying Eastern Mysticism and Western Metaphysics

In 1968 I began working with the I Ching, and now have my own translation online. In 1970 I began working with Massage and Healing with Karmu, the Holy One, in Cambridge Ma. He was a Healer, and a Rootman, and he taught me Massage, and how to love people, which is perhaps the most important thing anybody can know.

In 1973 I been doing Tai Chi Kung Fu with GrandMaster John Chung Li.

I am a writer, and artist, musician, Stand Up Comic, and a UFO Contactee.

I do not discriminate on the basis of Planetary Origin or Species.

I am a Vegetarian, have my own organic Garden, and support Animal Rights and Progressive causes.

Music

I grew up in a house filled with Classical music, and Jazz. Here's a little music video I made for the Ding Dong Show, that combines these two loves. Just click on the picture!

I really do enjoy all forms of music, and I would never listen to just one kind all of the time. Stan Getz & John Coltrane are my favorite Jazz musicians, but I also love the Big Band sound, Latin Jazz, and anything straight ahead. Of Classical Music composers, it seems that I have always loved the Russians best. As a Hippie from San Francisco, I got to know Grace Slick, Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Linda Ronstadt, the Grateful Dead, and Carlos Santana. I will always love these people.

Who I'd Like to Meet

I would like you to meet the Divine within yourself.

I would like you to get to know the Earth. It is a sentient being. We get to live here, only because She allows it. If we continue to exploit and destroy the resources of this planet, she just might change her mind about us being here...

Do you really want that?

Listen to the whisperings of the Trees. Pay attention to the Song of Life arising from the All.

The True Gospel will never be found within the pages of any book, but it can readily be seen within the Hearts of all who love the Divine.

We are not saved by seeking God. Let go, and let yourself be found by All that loves you!

You deserve nothing less.

Be the Blessing that all most desire in their inmost Hearts.

We are not here to dominate or exploit the other forms of Life. We are here to tend to their needs.

This is the Way that it is done.

Enlightenment reflects out into the Universe through behavior. People on The Path care as much for the well being of all living things, as they care about themselves. And they demonstrate this by doing as much to end suffering in the world, as they do to take care of themselves.

It is that simple.

Peace!

:

I write a lot of Blogs here at FriendBurst. Sometimes a video or a movie will get pulled for various reasons. I simply can't afford the time to edit them here. However, I do fix them over at my BlogSpot : The Gaian Dragon

The Main Page of my Website has a complete index of all of the Blogs I've written here at FriendBurst and later on posted on my BlogSpot. Here's the LINK (Click me. I'm fun)

Interests

I think it is more important to find the Hero within yourself, than to look up to another person. In all of the history of the world, there has only been one Hero, and he has 1000 Faces...

Some people I do hold in great regard are Lao Tse, King Wen & Prince Chi, Quan Yin, Lord Khrisna, Lord Buddha, Avolokitesvara, Green Tara, Lady Isis, & her son Horus, Thoth the Atlantean, Freyr, Jesus the Christ, Manly P Hall, & Gandhi.

When you find the Hero within yourself, you will be able to see the Hero within other people. Let us all be brave, and face the world with Courage!

Books

I like all kinds of books, but have always held a special love for Science Fiction & Fantasy. Some of my favorite authors are Anne McCaffrey, CJ Cherryh, Isaac Asimov, Robert A Heinlein, Philip Jose Famer, Roger Zelazny, HG Wells, Jules Verne, Alan Dean Foster, Andre Norton, Fred Saberhagen, Larry Niven, Frederik Pohl, Timothy Zahn, Poul Anderson, Orson Scott Card, L Frank Baum, JRR Tolkien, & JK Rowling.

I also love Westerns, especially Louis L'Amour, Zane Grey, and Max Brand
