For those who have nothing to do for a day and can handle Lon Milo Duquette's offbeat sense of humor:

Interesting, but I might have to make a week of it; there's only so much room in my daily youtube routine. :D The only deck I own is the Thoth deck, mainly because the art was super interesting to me.

I finished watching the last video today. It seems to in general offer some interesting insights to the trumps and certain processes which are going on in general across the western esoteric philosophies, just that I'm personally going more the Paul Foster Case and BOTA route more so than the Thelemic direction in my studies. The salt, sulfur, and mercury thing seems like it's hyped up in all of these paths.

The only thing that threw me at the end, it's a bit like LMD was suggesting that rather than a 'path of return' there's a bump somewhere in the future that sets everything back at Kether of Atziluth. That's my first time hearing such a thing suggested so I'll take that with a grain of salt (no pun intended) until I hear it again from other sources, otherwise I worry some of this stuff might flake off and get a bit New Age'y (my own definition of that - when people either start channeling messages or supposed experts start saying "Oh, don't you know!? Everything's changing right now - there's no more Great Work, you just get it all gratis by saying X to yourself" or "We're about to have a global transition from 3rd to 4th/5th dimension!" - and from there let the snakeoil begin).

Finished the first video now and plan on watching the rest. I've decided to finally start delving into tarot symbolism more so I'm taking notes as I go along. I also got a book I think you mentioned in another thread, Meditations on the Tarot, but I've only read one "letter" so far as part of some research I was doing for my blog.

I'm a newbie at all this, and I don't really find Thelema that appealing, but the B.O.T.A. sounds interesting. I don't really see myself paying dues for correspondence courses, but I kinda think I need the structure (aspieness and all) otherwise I'll never get anywhere. I'm telling myself that everyday I'll meditate on one card or write something about it, but I can't hold myself to that, and I'm sure I'll slack off. I have a composition notebook/magick journal with a page titled "my first ritual" because I had recently done the LBRP but I still haven't gotten around to writing about the experience!

Quote:
"We're about to have a global transition from 3rd to 4th/5th dimension!"


Haha, yeah. I read something the other day about how astrology still works even though the zodiacal houses don't line up like they used to. So much for the new Aeon! The suggestion was that something didn't quite work or the transition is incomplete. Maybe Philip K. Dick was right and we're still in the first century A.D.!

Thelema seems like its esotericism made specifically for those who've been either hurt by western culture or who had it shoved down their throats to where they want to rebel.

The only thing that appeals to me about some of the A.'.A.'. and OTO stuff is the level of technique and technology they employ with respect to process. I'd suppose Golden Dawn have everything as well, I still have Chic and Tabitha Cicero's Self-Initiation Into Golden Dawn but I took their advice, similar to Franz Bardon's advice in 'Initiation Into Hermetics' which suggests that you don't read any further than where you're at. With David Shoemaker's Living Thelema there was no such warning.

Something you might find interesting on Blogtalk radio is Poke Runyon's Hermetic Hour. Yeah, he has a few guests for which I've wondered about the veracity of but generally he seems to make a good amount of sense. Downside: any of the Path ## entries he has usually end up with him spending ten or fifteen minutes explaining the Ibis boat.

Paul Foster Case wrote a book called The Tarot that summarizes the trumps pretty well. So far he seems like one of the most touted and well-respected scholars on the tarot in Qabalistic form. I'm not too far into my BOTA studies but Tarot Fundamentals looks like it should get interesting. I'm hoping to stay with it for the whole thirteen years. IMHO I have two memberships - BOTA only costs $18 a month, the other costs maybe $13 - I pay more than that for a tank of gas. If I should find a really good Martinist order I might give that a try and perhaps put the secondary group on hold, just that with Martinism it's supposed to be local and face-to-face rather than by correspondence and I know for certain that there's nothing in reasonable driving distance.

I've been doing LBRP/LIRP for the past few months but no experience yet. I don't mind that as I'm really thinking that all of this is long-term mind programming and that my aim should really be embedding things in my subconscious and scaring up a good dialog and working relationship with it as a direct precursor to Knowledge and Conversation.

The suggestion was that something didn't quite work or the transition is incomplete. Maybe Philip K. Dick was right and we're still in the first century A.D.!

The thing that's caught my interest is this - everyone likes to talk about 7 period epochs but then people at random, whether it's Rudolph Steiner, the Jesuit code-breaker Rene Thibault as discussed by Tom Horn, or even Paul Foster Case as well - like to impute that as the 15,120 years of seven processional signs. That made no sense to me until I saw maybe an hour long video that dealt with cyclical time and the Platonic year actually being 5 signs worth of golden age and 7 worth of degeneration and regeneration (something like two 1 1/2 sign silver ages, two 1 1/2 sign gold ages, and the era at the bottom - ie. Ares - being the iron age or trough/Kali Yuga).

I still don't know exactly what to make of all of that - to me its easy to take it all as a bit specious albeit it gets more interesting when two or three different heavyweight sources bring it up. As for Rudolph Steiner's planetary evolutions - fascinating story until I read his timelines for Earths epochs and nothing really seemed to make sense.

As for Crowley's 'Age of Horus' and claims of huge paradigm shifts started by, none other than, his visit from Aiwass in 1904 which is supposed to be the equivalent in fire to the Great Flood of Genesis in water - sounds kinda bunk. It's part of what drew me to read up on Thelema and modern interpretations - I really wanted to know who took him seriously and why. Turns out that aside from his megalomania he seemed to know his Qabalah well.

i made it through to about a quarter of the second video..

and i actually enjoy the light hearted nature of the narrator..particularly as he admits..

that divination can come from anywhere..where one sets their BELIEF.. WILL and intuition to IT...

And of course moreover the power of BELIEVE..IN SOMETHING a little greater than the obvious..

form..

But a major drawback so far..is the full focus on mind..and little focus on body..the core of our form..AND BEING...

I love the microcosm of human as metaphor for the macrocosm of what we know for the Universe..NOW..

However a point missed and a linear way of restriction noT mentioned is basic human movement...

TRUE fire of our FULL existence...

My greatest insights come when i am in a flow of TAI CHI moving in 360 degrees...

BUT!

In our western IN form ONLY focus culture...

We learn to walk on sidewalks..and dare not a child move anywhere but forward linearly or a shout or slap on hand or other body parts..can be a consequence...

I see it almost every time i go to SUPERwalmart..a little child reaches out for the dance of the 360 degree Universe they are as microcosm of THE MACROCOSM OF ALL IT IS...

AND THEY ARE SLAPPED DOWN..INTO A RUDIMENTARY BEGINNING FOR EVEN THE POTENTIAL TO CREATE THEIR OWN LIMITLESS FULL DIMENSION OF UNIVERSE..AGAIN.. A FULL 360 DEGREES FOR METAPHOR OF BEING...IN FULL RIVER..OR FULL OCEAN WAVE OF LIFE..FOR FULL 'SEA'ING AS BEING SAILOR OF LIFE..

THE EASTERN PHILOSOPHIES FOCUS ON THIS..BUT HELL NO.. STILL MEDITATION.. IS THE ANTITHESIS OF A FULL CREATION OF A HUMAN BEING UNIVERSE..WAY TO GO AND BE....

WELL.. i can listen to music in BOOKSTORE..Barnes and Nobles..spin around in 360 degrees..WITH ARMS AND LEGS SYNCHRONOUSLY.. AND yeah! hell yeah..!
i'm the only one ya might imagine brave enough or 'crazy' enough to do this uninhibited display of Universe of what i am...IN FULL VIEW OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC...

BUT.. the payoff is huge..i can read a 250 page book..in about 30 minutes or less..and retain almost all the information..in photographic memory..ADDing FULL mind display for future use...

The perfect medicine for ADHD..at least in my case..a 'STIM' FOR KNOWLEDGE...

I cannot imagine wHere my mind might be today..if i had this insight as a younger person...

The body is an integral part of potential full enlightenment and full potential OF WHAT THE MIND CAN BE...

There is no doubt about that in my mind...

And the consequences of static movement in existence..are also incredible..in a negative way too...

Most immediately tension...

Next.. the inability to burn off stress associated neuro-hormones...resulting in potential damage of the neurological..respiratory...cardio..endocrine..and every other system of the body for life...

Next.. eventual ergonomic injury..from either static or limited movement..

potential inflammation associated disease like arthritis...

AND

Body mind disconnect and potential somatic pain from repression of emotions..hell NO! the emotions do not disappear..when repressed..they simply manifest as pain ..tension..high blood pressure..immune system issues..the list goes on...

And well..at the most rudimentary level..increasing stress with no outlet in movement..equals earlier death...

Yes..science NOW provides evidence and the processes and mechanisms..where CHRONIC STRESS.. can and will lead to EARLIER DEATH!

SO HAHA! WESTERN FOLKS QUESTION THE EFFICACY OF THE REAL POTENTIAL HEALING POWER OF TAI CHI..MARTIAL ARTS..AND THE OTHER EASTERN LEANING PHILOSOPHIES OF MOVEMENT IN REAL LIFE ACTION..AS A WAY OF LIFE...IN FULL 360 DEGREES....

SO HAHA!..OVER 75% OF ADULT AMERICANS ARE REPORTED TO BE ON SOME KIND OF PAIN KILLER..MOSTLY FROM THE IMPACT OF STRESS..TENSION..AND INFLAMMATORY DISEASES..AND VAGUE SOMATIC ISSUES LIKE FIBROMYALGIA...

YES! THE MIND IS MOST DEFINITELY INVOLVED...BUT KEEP THE BODY STATIC OR MOVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE ONLY OR SITTING IN FRONT OF A SCREEN FOCUSED ON SEVERAL TWO DIMENSION POINTS..ON A VIRTUAL REALITY OF ONE FLAT SURFACE..

AND THE CONSEQUENCE IS...

HUMAN SUFFERING...

PLAIN AND SIMPLE..

AND A LOWER THAN POTENTIAL LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS..FOCUS..AND FULL ATTENTION FOR BOTH LEARNING..AND REALLY MOVING AROUND IN LIFE AND GETTING THE FULL JOB OF LIFE DONE...

IN 360 DEGREES AS WE ARE MEANT TO BE...

A UNIVERSE OF HUMAN...

NOT A FRIGGING 2 PLUS 2 MATH EQUATION FOR ONLY FORM...

OR THE ROSICRUCIAN CROSS AS SUCH...

WITH NO HUMAN MOVEMENT..AS SUCH...

IMPLIED AS REQUIRED FOR FULL HUMAN BEING ENLIGHTENMENT...

And nah..i hardly think that A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION of the folks on the spectrum have an inherent issue with movement limitations..PARTICULARLY IN THE SO CALLED HIGHER FUNCTIONING AUTISM RANGE....

IT is just a matter of what they DO ..in REAL life..instead of what they COULD DO in REAL life..if the really believed they could move in 360 degrees and perhaps started one step at a time in reverse..until their core of universe sprouted out

into FULL 360 degrees of FULL UNIVERSE HUMAN BEING...WITH ALL LIMBS WORKING IN SYNCHRONY AS SUCH..FLOWING LIKE A RIVER IN ONE HUMAN BEING....


SO NO..I DO NOT THINK THAT THE FIVE POINTED STAR THAT ALEISTER CROWLEY SUGGESTED AS HUMAN MICRCOSM OF MACROCOSM STAR IS ENOUGH..BUT HE IS a real life MOUNTAIN CLIMBER..

SO.. PERHAPS HE TOOK HIS OWN REALITY FOR GRANTED AS SUCH2..RATHER THAN UNDERSTANDING WHAT LIFE WAS LIKE WITHOUT HIS ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A FULL UNIVERSE OF MOVEMENT.....

A UNIVERSE IS A FULL FLOWERED 360 DEGREE.. AT LEAST.. CREATION ..OF THE ONE THAT IS ALL OR GOD...

AND HELL YES..WITH BELIEVE AND WILL..HUMANS CAN BE THE SIMILAR MICROCOSM OF THE ALL THAT IS...

JUST BY REFLECTING THE FULL ALLITIS..

IN REAL LIFE...

ONE STEP..FIRST..BACK..FOR BALANCE.. AND THEN EVERY STEP IN EVERY DIRECTION WITH EVERY LIMB OF BEING..FOR FULL HUMAN BALANCE BEING..

IN 360 DEGREES OF FREE RIVER FLOWING HUMAN BEING...

BOTH WAYS..EVERY WAY...

NEVER ONLY

ON THE

CULTURALLY INITIATED SIDEWALK OR
HIGHWAY TO HELL...

A METAPHOR IF YA WILL...

FOR TRUTH..

IN BODY MOVEMENT AS WELL

AS
MIND..
HEART..
SOUL..
SPIRIT..
AS THE ALLITIS IN BEYOND...


6 PATHS TO BLISS..
WITH ONE AS ALLITIS..

AsONe

Finished the videos and found them to be interesting and informative. I think I got more out of this lecture then out of reading the Book of Thoth, but then that was 'a long time ago' compared to where I am at now. I took a bunch of notes so hopefully I retain the good bits. Thanks for sharing.

i still have not had time to watch the rest of the videos..but for anyone who comes across this thread and is interested in a written condensed form in a brief explanation of the Qabbalistic Keys to the Creation of Man and the Tarot in general this sacred texts dot com internet site is a great resource for that..and not only that but it is a site where almost any sacred text can be found for research..including the writings of Aleister Crowley..specifically for a start 'the book of the law'...

http://www.sacred-texts.com/eso/sta/sta30.htm

As far as this New Age stuff goes with a fifth race and all of that..

i think it is obvious..more than obvious..in technological societies that the population is becoming more androgynous as a natural cycle of a move away from patriarchy in a world of over-population and dwindling resources for survival...

It is common to see a move away from intercourse in the natural animal kingdom when this occurs in any social animal population...

So the lack of interest in intercourse among young folks in Japan..the move to cosmetics for males in South Korea..metro sexuals in big cities..lowered teen age pregnancy rates in the US..these are all signs of this so called fifth race..where if one moves intercourse out of the FOCUS OF THE picture of culture overall there is less competition..strife ..war..

and of course a lower fertility rate..as what we are now seeing among technological societies...

However the issue is..how to change this in countries still under religious patriarchal rules in union with state...

Freedom of information..and psychology operations..instead of war seems to be key..

And freedom is a wine that the core of most folks..deep down..do want more than anything in life...

So in metaphor..perhaps the introduction of vicarious free sexually oriented material will be the energy..libido..emotions..and POWER TO SET THE WORLD FREE FOR PEACE..AND A MORE HARMONIOUS SHARING WAY OF LIFE...

SO little things like VEVO moving into middle eastern countries..using a little bit of censorship..to make it more 'soft porn'..if ya will instead of hard core..is the temptation..to potentially be part of the KEY...

to set the world..FREE..

And nah..one cannot discount the power of SEX TO UNLEASH HUMAN FREEDOM..IT IS CORE IN OUR NATURE..

AND THE CHAINS OVER THE FREEDOM AS SUCH..ARE ONLY ILLUSION BY THE CURRENT HISTORICAL SLAVE MASTER OF PATRIARCHY..IRONICALLY THE ANTI CHRIST THAT IS THE PATRIARCHAL MODERN CHRISTIAN CHURCHES...

MOVING AWAY FROM THE 'TRUTH' OF THE QABBALISTIC ORIGINAL ANDROGYNOUS FREE GOD..

ELOHIM...

NEVER TRAPPED IN EITHER FEMININE OR MASCULINE...

ONE BALANCED WHOLE...

SACRED LOVE.

BUT LOVE IS THE KEY..TO FREE HUMAN

FROM THE BASER NATURE OF DOMINATION RATHER THAN SHARING IN
SACRED LOVE.

INTERESTING THOUGH THAT IN THE QABBALISTIC TEACHINGS THAT JUDGEMENT DAY IS THE DAY..

THAT THE PATRIARCHS ARE JUDGED FOR

BASICALLY KILLING
ELOHIM..

BY MAKING ELOHIM ONLY MASCULINE...

INSTEAD OF A SACRED BALANCE
OF BOTH...
MASCULINE
AND
FEMININE...

BUT ANYWAY THAT'S WHERE I'M AT...

BEFORE I READ ANY OF
THIS.

IT'S IN OUR NATURE..I SUPPOSE..

OUR OR my INSTINCT...

REINCARNATION...

WHATEVER...

BUT

IT
IS....
WHAT
IT
IS....

THERE IS NO
DISMISSING THE REALITY
OF
WHAT
IT
IS..
THAT PART IS
REAL....WITH NO DOUBT

FOR THOSE
WHO
LIVE


IT.

AND LADY GAGA'S NEW VIDEO GUY..
IS A FULL AND EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL MODERN

BUT YAH..DEEP AND SYMBOLIC..CODED REPRESENTATION...

OF THIS TRUTH...

PATRIARCHY SHOOTS DOWN THE HEART OF THE FALLEN ANGEL...

AND RISES TO MAKE

THE WORLD REFLECT GOD AGAIN...

IN MALE AND FEMALE BALANCED

ANDROGYNY...

CLEAR AS THE CLONES OF GANDHI..JESUS..AND MICHAEL JACKSON...

ALL ANDROGYNOUS LOVING PASSIVE sharing ASSERTIVE MALES...

WHO!

MARCH FORTH AND TAKE OVER THE WHOLE
DAM
WORLD...

YES IT'S REALLY HAPPENING..

SLOWER THAN THIS...

BUT STILL...

IT'S REALLY HAPPENING...

IT'S CLEAR TO SEE..FOR THOSE WHO


WATCH....


BUT JUST FOR REFERENCE..AGAIN... HERE IS THE LADY GAGA VIDEO.....

WITH A DETAILED LOOK.. THE SYMBOLISM IS CLEAR...

LADY GAGA IS MUCH MUCH MUCH MORE brilliant in reason and creativity.. THAN most FOLKS GIVE HER CREDIT FOR....

SHE OFTEN PLAYS THE ROLE OF SACRED FOOL...

BUT SHE AIN'T KIDDING ME..

NOT FOR ONE MOMENT..

AS

I SEE...:)

;)

HER FULL! INTELLIGENCE...

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNu_-deVemE[/youtube]

yup..and this will probably evolve into a blog post....


i think i'll call it..


JUDGEMENT DAY.;)

IT'S BASICALLY THE CORE MEANING OF THE VIDEO ANYWAY...

JUSTICE...
FOR
ALL...

THROUGH SACRED LOVE...

AND THE DEATH OF..

PATRIARCHY...

AKA AS THE REAL ANTI-CHRIST....

CASTING THIS DEMON DOWN..

TO THE

PITT

OF



HELL...;)

I don't know that we're necessarily heading toward androgyny but I would argue that at a minimum we're heading toward a significantly higher arc understanding of what it is to be male or female and being such outside of the survival oriented paradigm.

I tried watching the Gaga video - for as much as I want to find interest in what she's symbolically doing I just still can't get into everything else init.

You did just send me on a music search to post something transcendental. Strangely I didn't go for someone else's production as I usually would but I grabbed one of my own tunes that I made seven years ago called Archangel:

http://www.last.fm/music/5PRYME/Finding+My+Way+(2005+-+2008+Chronology+-+Drum+&+Bass)/Archangel

I'm probably too dorky for Gaga I'll admit. It would be interesting to see if she does actually get people thinking in a different manner or if she does eventually start dabbling in Golden Dawn or whatever else albeit she seems like she'd clearly be more of a Thelema girl if she all of a sudden showed up in OTO people would probably just lift a leg and fart. It would be the least surprising move imaginable.

To clarify...i do not mean becoming more androgynous in a classical sense of evolution..that could take thousands of years...

But.. what there is.. that is substantial.. in one or two generations..is the real significant impact of epigenetics and or neuroplasticity..IN CHANGE FOR ADAPTATION TO ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE..OF ALL KINDS...

And androgyny is basically a more domesticated human being..without as many masculinizing characteristics per mind and body...

The Asians and the East Indians and even some Middle Eastern people..are not nearly as sexually dimorphic as folks in the US and Jamaica for example...

But.. per one or two generations.. the effect of androgens and how they present in times of stress..effect human development.. not only prenatally.. but through the course of a lifetime..depending on the environment of stress and or challenge..

And then there are the chemical elements of epigenetic change..like the PILL.. as it directs women more toward the stable beta male..than the alpha leaning male who is fearless and takes risks..like driving too fast..getting in fights..IN all of these so called bad boy characteristics associated with another mix of androgen influence...

Living in an actual Patriarchal still leaning locality..in the deep south in North Florida..the change may be more noticeable than from more liberal areas..that aren't in the hunter...fisherman OUTDOORSMAN mode..which can effect androgens..as well.. through the course of the lifecycle...

When i am in middle school.. a boy dare not crack a smile either in middle school or at the city park...or they ARE going to be referred to as that F word..and chastised as such...as boys are NOT..allowed to smile back then...IT IS AGAINST THE ESTABLISHED LOCAL SOCIAL NORM....

I guess that might be hard to imagine..but that is what it is like in the good 'ole south..back in the REAL PATRIARCHAL DAYS..

WE'VE ACTUALLY ALREADY are MOVED IN.. INTO A RELATIVEly speaking.. PERIOD OF ANDROGYNY WHERE I LIVE AS COMPARED TO THAT...

AND FURTHERMORE..if one takes out a year book from the 40's and 50's from a middle school or even pictures of elementary children...

The square jaws of males and other masculinizing features are MUCH MORE apparent there than NOW...

And then of course there is widespread usage of illegal and legal androgens..to increase the masculinization..of
young and old males..that skew the picture somewhat now..if those 'additives' are not currently mixed in the 'androgen soup'..

But as mentioned in another thread..this patriarchy thingy..which i certainly hope will eventually break into a more egalitarian way of life...Is a sure way to prevent one from connecting TRULY SPIRITUALLY WITH THE ONE THAT IS ALL..OR WHAT SOME FOLKS REFER TO AS GOD...

A CLOSED 2ND CHAKRA ..RESULTING EMOTIONAL COLDNESS..AND DEATH OF POTENTIAL CREATIVITY..

IS PRECISELY A PATH AWAY.. INSTEAD OF A WAY TO.. CONNECT WITH THE ONE THAT IS ALL..OR GOD..OR ALLAH..OR WHATEVER one wants to cALL ONE! OR ALLITIS...!

A BALANCE OF FEMININE AND MASCULINE IN ONE HUMAN BEING..NOT NECESSARILY ANDROGYNOUS IN PHYSICALITY.. BUT ANDROGYNOUS IN TANDEM WITH HOLY SPIRIT..AND MIND..IS NOT SOMETHING ONCE FOUND..EASY TO WALK AWAY FROM...IT'S INTOXICATING BEING ONE WITH GOD..in this way..IT IS NO FAIRY TALE...AT ALL...

BUT TO BE REPRESSED OR OPPRESSED..IS A SURE WAY NEVER TO GET THERE...

of course in only my humble BUT WORDY OPINON..;)

AND while Madonna Is heavily involved in Kabbalistic teaching..

although i have yet to research it..

I'm pretty sure that Lady Gaga..does it FREE STYLE...

LIKE I DO..

FORGING HER OWN PATH..WITH HER OWN RESEARCH..AND DIRECT CONDUIT WITH THE ONE THAT IS ALL..
OR GOD...

AND I'M PRETTY SURE SHE IS ASPERGER'S LEANING..IF NOT ACTUALLY THERE...

ASPERGER'S LOOKS MUCH DIFFERENT..WHEN FULL CREATIVITY IS PART OF THE MIX...

BUT IT IS CLEAR IN REAL LIFE..AWAY FROM THE STAGE..THAT SHE IS RESERVED AS SUCH AS WHAT ONE MIGHT EXPECT...

THAT IS COMMON AMONG THAT SEGMENT OF THE CREATIVE SPECTRUM..

IT'S JUST ANOTHER EXPRESSION OF LASER FOCUS..IN THE MOMENT..MINDFULLY AWARE..IF YA WILL....

My cousin is a lifelong musician at 50 although not officially diagnosed still the son of my father's twin brother..where my sister and i picked up the genetic aspect of Asperger's..

He's great in front of a crowd....

On a stage focusing on what he does....

But still uncomfortable as hell..

At Super Walmart with that vague feeling he does not exist...

The Autism Spectrum is huge and varied...

This PPR section is not at all REFLECTIVE OF THE FULL VARIETY OF MINDS THAT INHABIT IT...

IT IS MORE LIKE A FUNDAMENTALIST ATHEIST CHURCH..

IF YA WILL..

THE LITERALLY THINKING CONGREGATION..JUST TAKES SCIENCE LITERALLY..

LIKE THE EVANGELICAL LEANING FOLKS...reading the bible as such...

AND JUST AS PASSIONATE ABOUT THEIR 'BELIEFS' TOO...

NEVER USUALLY VEERING FROM THOSE BELIEFS...

WITH AN OPEN MIND..it what i personally believe ..

IS SAD...

CAUSE THEY ARE REALLY POTENTIALLY MISSING OUT...

ON BLISS...

WITH A POTENTIAL FULL AND OPEN MIND..as well as body..heart..soul..spirit..and BEYOND! WITH
THE ONE THAT IS ALL..OR ALLITIS...GOD ..ALLAH..SO MANY POTENTIAL SYMBOLS FOR THE
ESSENCE OF WHAT IS...

In addendum on a related note.. a former member of this site..Andrew Lehman.. has a very interesting theory on
Neoteny..as it relates to autism..and the social cycles of patriarchy through matriarchy..as it relates to the overall
domestication of man and androgyny...

And there is a free book there too for download on his linked Neoteny site provided below...

If i am not mistaken.. sadly.. he died of a brain disorder...

But his INSIGHTS STILL EXIST..:)

FORTUNATELY..i DO THINK..

AS HIS OUT OF BOX THINKING ON THIS..
IS NOVEL AND INTERESTING..to me at least...

http://www.neoteny.org

And here is a blog post from a person who puts in great time and effort..
to study Lady Gaga as a PHD theology student...

http://gagajournal.blogspot.com/2011/09 ... a-god.html

The basic underlying merits per the historical Jesus..is fascinating to me..

And again..a sign of incredible creativity and intelligence all in one...

As Lady Gaga does it all with her art..and does not rely on others to write her songs..etc...
as so many music artists do today...

And.. also by the way.. i was not able to hear your music..i guess it does not work with iMacs for some reason...

Look for a website for "Cydonia Entertainment" , or "Sidonia Entertainment" ( forget which it is). Prolly there.

Seeing that these are neither on Youtube or Vimeo my shoot-from-the-hip guess is that LMD had these pulled. You'll probably have to either buy the DVD series or risk your computer with a dodgy torrent of some kind.
