He has crossed the river, firmly based on moral discipline and Renunciation, tamer of men, preacher of gods- Buddha
Focus on the art he said mirroring Confucius as the only way to survive life's doldrums luckily the past is filled with them we only need focus our telescopes on a when. A very few of them would have predicted getting a reply nor one of that kind from the very old Kurt Vonnegutt.
Since it lies dormant in every one, it could easily be reached and fetched when we sketch a few, paint a tad, sing a mite, until we have to really call it by its name and brave existence under its awning.Then we see that art as as a master can be unforgiving. brutal and even maddening. Like magma its a spectacle without, a literal hell for the one in who sloughs.
Who like me, when I finally made the switch with a smirk from Sciences like Achebe to the art would have thought that the Art was the most arduous, strict and demanding of masters. It requires the highest state of all, requiring a purity and a constant state of feel, ethereality and spirituality. As man, it is a constant state of self policing, a wringing of the soul, a laugh at traumatic pain, a lot of swallowed tears channelled as succor through the ink of a pen or the pitch of a voice..
To Be Permeable
Ego as the Lemuria shadow is described as the original sin, that cut us from our higher self. Glimpsed at and found sometimes at the bottom of our psyche well, in truama, in lack, and at the end of our wits, It is Peter Tosh teaching himself the guitar while chewing on raw marijuana as the only food to eat.
As artist we better understand Carl Jung's Philosophy of the swap between the self and a higher self, and how in reaching, we are reached in vesselled completely by what can only be ascribed jn likeliness to Hubbard's thetan.
Like fhe Buddha, when expounding his sutra and suddenly get permeated by a ray of light at the top of his head, he smile and remember that actually he had said these before in a certain Kalpa, it can be a yearn for the reattaching of the lost apotheosis.
The higher the capacity for suffering the more the realisation, So as we undergo truama in quiet reflection what we do is accept the dissolution of the self and the ego and attain a third birth. Which I call it a remembering, and a reattaching to thre loftiness enshrouded by the lemuria shadow. We move closer so to speak to the god we once were, everything stop being pertinent,through this ego death, a spirituaity assumes our being qand the utter creativeness of being it's vessel, produce that which endures and ensures our eternity.
The productive and addictive high of a constant state of spirituality was the theme of Herbie Hancock talk about Buddhism how it takes one to a creative space, D H Lawrence said for one to be artist you have to be very spiritual. Vesselled sometimes even to my own detriment, when the goal is mind expansion
A singularity of vision, like Crome Yellow, the secret to writing is Inspiration.
When you surrender you are possesed a vesselbajd when you come to, you find out that this you have I don't know how he does it it just atart and doesn't until he's down this was Seun describing how Fela wrote his music. There is no art without spirituality
You have to make yourself a vessel you have to be Spirituality to be artist.
For the illustrious beauty will only fill that which remains in cleanliness of thought
An emptiness of the mind a hollowing of the self to be used as a conduit for that which is pure creation. I too am being vesselled, a flugel horn of nature. I am only permitted to observe my own hand write. The utterly lack of fear, dicition and temerity can only be ascribed to something beyond me. And I allow it for my partnership is merely nominal, I get the grace and ascendancy that comes with its pull. In the cold dark of my room, I remain humble and implore its continuity by being pure, cleansing my thoughts, reading sutras, chanting living cleanly and being mindful trying my best not to soil the vessel and once again I am seized and you read something like this and believe I write it all and Yes I do, for in preparation I found the food cooking, -All I did was clean the pot.
As an artist, you will come to the truth that will negate you from your world and even your kinfolk and you will spend the rest of your life, barfing, spitting out years of conditioning and poison, at the realisation that the entirety of society is a lie, will be called a bastard, remember God likes bastards and might just choose you, by opening your pineal gland.
The pineal glandz polished by reading is the beacon of direction and attraction, the exuder of aura, which attracts what seeks our mind, the book to read, movie to see becomes weirdly in sync with the chain of thought and theory in pursuit at present.
I feel myself disintegrating the more i write and the new me, cringes at my past actions, walks rather slowly, couldn't be bothered, in the background i observe my own actions as I have been substituted and mustn't fight it, lest I lose sanity.
Nature is the doer we are just vessels, to be vessel you have to pure in thoughts completely And allow yourself the singular vision, and intention like a sword, unyielding Malcolm X, Fela, Sanders If your life is spiritual, you willl always be in am ever creative space and write till death like Plato There is a light at the end of this tunnel, it’s a participation the spores of soul through lifetime A conversation and a precipice
Nature is the doer, Vishnu is in control his goal; Inundation and melioration. If you Look around you, thee is a melioration going on You can either be the light or the step The only way is forward, a conversation and a precipice pray we are used for a lot longer in better conversation in all life times We have done it all before.
Someone will have to take the brunt of the ignorance to teach it its meaninglessness m Onward and forward forever we have been here before seen them all Beo they all look familiar somehow, they are you, vishnu he lord is the owner of everything, creator with the master plan These calloused hand will be pacified in times bountifully plentifully he know aware he is doing you are just a verse He is everything To be uncomfortable and to dig in the well of thee self time and again What we are doing is passing the baton, and we must pass it with the same verve of others who have gone before us, as they are doing so now, our work has reward now for the past and the future exist side by side, so do wit very well they are waiting
Diet
Of all wealth spiritual wealth is the most powerfu, the most potent and inscrutable with it you challenge Kings and that is the only aim in this world of smoke, For the re- attainment and re-proclaiming of the self, A completely vegeterian diet wills it that the consumption of bitter kola, seeds, legumes and vegetables provides green fuel as Lee Perry calls it. Your being pliable body negates the consumption of blood.
There is no life like the clean life , it is the best life not only does the world around you constantly speak And reveal itself to you, but you also get to witness the joy of purity and agree that it is indeed the sweetest high
Dr sebi Alkaline Diet
Dried fruits, tomatoes and pepper
Dates
Cassava flakes
No bread
Salt water and no meat could be termed the witches diet, i laugh and agree as Pratyekabuddha cab only be regarded as a witch inlay man terms.
Roquetin's way out was through the art - Satre
In truth, there is no man without spirituality for man is lead by the spirit he runs with a soul in his heart, evading and running to protect himself in a world that seeks his corruption.
For the black man He must leave Christianity one way or another for Christinatu is just rites and prostitution it doesn't lead to spirituality there is a vacuum in its core.While the reading of the Bible can feel like an absurd fable concocted for the sake of it Unlike Buddhist text especially where you feiel assaulted with the glimpses of past lives. A call to remembrance which is the aim of existence
Spirituality for the black man will either he found in either through Sufism or Buddhism For the Witchcraft of Christianity only seeks to subdue and retard the black man, it is a coup on his psyche and doesn't align with his mind, His muscle memory do not remember the rites of Christianity, but in Sufiam and Buddhism there is a welcome back that he can neither deny nor refute. Christianity which is a religion of slavery, preached in Africa by returnee children of slaves can only seek to enslave.
Those with the know how realign with the path way of our forefathers and for as man ages he moves away from the head pats and will prefer the meeting hands of either man or phantom buoyed the weight of his life experiences. He would meet his fate head on, rather than cry to a smug God coupled with a family to shelter from life, the surety of a spiritual potency is sacrosanct as he must protect and educate the child beneath him. If he looks intently, will not find it in the catwalk of the church But within, introspection with that which is own chi approves for him.
So a life hack as it Would seem wss Kurt's nudge as an old man who has been through the moll, He decided to save the children some time by pointing them to the trusted line in this blizzard. For If art imitates life, and requires spirituality. Life should therefore seek to imitate art and reach towards spirituality as the way out of its penumbra. For if Art is life, then spirituality is both's guiding light.
