MUSIC – BLISS GODDESS
From their Facebook Page:
Bliss Goddess music, visual art and temple dance is an alchemy of the ancient, future and eternal present. As sonic shamans, they blend live instruments and ethnic percussion with remixes of the hottest tracks from the best tribal dub and world electronic dance music artists. The music is brought to your eyes by projected visionary art and sacred geometry, while radiant Temple Dancers invoke and embody the Divine Feminine, leading the listener/dancer on a journey across exotic, lush landscapes.
I first discovered BLISS GODDESS earlier this year while doing a Soundcloud search for artists and bands that relate to spirituality in one form or another. I found a live recording of their Jan. 29th show in Austin earlier this year. Continue reading “MUSIC – BLISS GODDESS”

Welcome 2016…..lets throw common sense out the window
I think this new year I will be calling out fearmongering and half-ass written articles that give more stated opinion than actual facts. Case in point….
Mad World News has a headline “House Dems Moved To Implement First Sharia Law While You Weren’t Looking”
http://madworldnews.com/house-dems-sharia-law/
In the article, a lot of opinions are thrown around while the author pushes the reader to give up common sense while reading between the lines.

Full Metal Meditation: Heavy Music for Your Next Spiritual Journey
Really cool article from 2010 on Heavy Metal Music and Consciousness
Gray State – Director and Writer David Crowley found dead along with wife and daughter
Updates:From all indications, from posts from family and friends this was a Murder/Suicide. Speculation from various people still linger yet those close to the case have posted on various pages that financial trouble and worry brought this man and family down. I will still write a full article for the print issue concerning David, his family, and his documentary, which is available below. The full version might still be in the go. The movie probably wont. Many blessings to all involved.
Someone from the Gray State The Rise Facebook page doesn’t believe the roughcut version shouldnt have been posted…..
Hashtag used to bring awareness: #justiceforcrowley
Youtube Rough Cut Version Just released by therundownlive.com. Youtube Video Below
David Crowley, writer and director of Gray State, a fictional yet controversial movie depicting a second American Revolution after the advancement of a future Police State, was found dead in his home along with his wife and daughter in Apple Valley, MN Saturday Jan. 17th. According to news (and here) authorities say it was an apparent murder/suicide and that the deaths may have happened around Christmas.
Physicists, alchemists, and ayahuasca shamans: A study of grammar and the body
Are there any common denominators that may underlie the practices of leading physicists and scientists, Renaissance alchemists, and indigenous Amazonian ayahuasca healers? There are obviously a myriad of things that these practices do not have in common. Yet through an analysis of the body and the senses and styles of grammar and social practice, these seemingly very different modes of existence may be triangulated to reveal a curious set of logics at play. Ways in which practitioners identify their subjectivities (or ‘self’) with nonhuman entities and ‘natural’ processes are detailed in the three contexts. A logic of identification illustrates similarities, and also differences, in the practices of advanced physics, Renaissance alchemy, and ayahuasca healing.
Physics and the “I” and “You” of experimentation
A small group of physicists at a leading American university in the early 1990s are investigating magnetic temporality and atomic spins in a crystalline lattice; undertaking experiments within the field of condensed matter physics. The scientists collaborate together…

Film Review – I, ORIGINS Movie (2014)
A beautiful, poetic envision of life. Of love. Views of what we seek in the infinite. A scientist and a free spirit find each of at a party and hook-up only to lose each other. After seeking to find the woman of that night and after following the signs that are presented to him, specifically the reoccurring number 11, fate leads him to find her, specifically again, when he looks in a window that has an infinity symbol drawn on it, and sees her reflection. This brings them together and the harmonious flight of love takes shape. Continue reading “Film Review – I, ORIGINS Movie (2014)”
Five Heavy Metal Songs That Made Me Realize the Reality of Death.
Yeah, I’m one of those long haired Metal-head types that grew up listening to aggressive music, getting into the mosh pit at concerts, stage diving into crowds, and a bit of headbanging at times. One thing that drew me to Heavy Metal was the depth of some of the lyrics in some of the bands I listened to. I contribute music in being one of the main vehicles that made me question the reality of life as well as death. Below is a small list of songs that made me open up to the understanding of the last aspect of life….Death. Continue reading “Five Heavy Metal Songs That Made Me Realize the Reality of Death.”
A Little Quote to Ponder Upon
“He whose mind is enslaved to his bestial instincts is philosophically not superior to the brute; he whose rational faculties ponder human affairs is a man; and he whose intellect is elevated to the consideration of divine realities is already a demigod, for his being partakes of the luminosity with which his reason has brought him into proximity.” Manly P. Hall (The Secret Teachings of All Ages)
Saving Ellie Grace – GoFundMe
From their GoFundMe Page…
During the early hours of January 1st, around 2:30 am, a tragic fatal roadside accident ensued near the Sam Houston Parkway feeder at West View resulting in the loss of the life of a caring pregnant mother, but a miraculous second chance for the life of her newborn child.
After suffering a traumatic brain injury, the mother was rushed in critical condition to the nearest emergency hospital.
Doctors performed an emergency surgery on the injured mother, but unfortunately, against all of their best efforts,this wasn’t enough. The mother of two would succumb to her injuries only a few hours after the accident.

The Art of Letting Go by Dixie Clark
Each of our lives has its own unique rhythm. There is an ebb and flow, and a time for stillness that continues to repeat itself throughout our lifetime. The art of letting go is about honoring this rhythm. It’s about knowing when to hold in stillness, and when to move forward, even if the way isn’t clear. Letting go is really about opening to receive. It is living in this moment, honoring who you are. It is a process of trust.

Quick Finds: BRINA – Jamaican Reggae
Brina – Jamaican Reggae
links: Website Facebook YouTube
Reggae Music has always had a strong spiritual connection in their music. Whether your listening to the early sounds of Bob Marley and the Wailers, Gregory Isaacs, and Lee Perry to the more modern sounds of Shabba ranks or Buju Banton, somewhere, within the music is a spiritual connection to God (Jah). I came across Brina awhile back through a Bahai Faith Facebook page, which lead me to the video below, which is a montage of pictures and quotes while her soulful voice singes about peace and love as well as the essence of harmony. Really nice and soothing and hitting the spot.
Brina has five CDs with the most recent, released Sept 2014, being “Reggae Sauti Za Kiswahili,” an EP that brings Brina’s Jamaican Reggae to Africa while sung in Swahili. You can check out her music at her Bandcamp page.
For more info check out the video below and check out her Facebook Page.
Quick Finds: SPIRAL DANCE – Pagan Alternative Folk Rock
SPIRAL DANCE – Pagan Alternative Folk Rock
links: Website – Facebook – ReverbNation
Found this Pagan Folk band from Adelaide, Australia through their facebook page and really loved not only the beautiful voice of singer Adrienne Piggott but the eclectic blend of electric instruments (drums and guitar) as well as other instruments such as the fiddle, accordion and tribal drums. They bring together the Folk sound and feel of traditional songs as well as a more modern electric light Rock feel on others. They have links of their songs on their Facebook and ReverbNation sites where you can get a glimps of their sound. Their musical focus is on the concepts of magic, myth and legend. Fave tracks from the clips include “Goddess and teh Weaver” (should that be ‘the’?), “Holly Lord”, and “Magick” which seems to have a bit more Rock feel through it.
The band has been together since 1992 and have released seven albums including a live album called “Worts ‘n’ All.” Their most recent CD, “Through a Sylvan Doorway” was released on 15th July 2012. They have a new track released in August 2014 called “Wickerman” which is inspired by their annual English Ale Festival. You can listen and buy the song at their Bandcamp Page. If your into Pagan Folk music this may be a good band you may want to check out.
Three Simple Ways to Experience More Joy, Fulfillment and Happiness by Larry Freeborg

The Physics of Consciousness by Jason Lincoln Jeffers
Quantum physics posits that nothing really happens in the physical world unless a conscious mind observes it. In other words, consciousness must perceive what it creates in order for that creation be real. This theory can be corroborated in the dream world. When we dream, we create our dream and perceive our dream at the same time. We do it so seamlessly that we are unaware that we, are in fact, the dreamer.

The Benefits of Antioxidant-Rich Tea by Jason Lincoln Jeffers
Thomas Edison once said, “The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.” In the early 20th century, Dr. Otto H. Warburg proved that all forms of cancer have two basic conditions: high acidity and oxygen deficiency. He believed that the root cause of cancer is oxygen deficiency because he discovered that cancer cells are anaerobic (do not breathe oxygen) and cannot survive in the presence of oxygen, as found in an alkaline state.

God’s Not Dead Movie Review
Just watched Gods Not Dead and thought it was a great movie, especially for it being Christian based. While most movies from the Christian camp seem to be watered downed in substance and fluffed up, this one has a bit more of a bite to it and has substance in the revelance of what it means to have faith, question doubt and be a believer in Christ.
The Mystical Meaning of Life by David Almeida
We all have different belief systems, religions leanings, personal philosophies, and ways of explaining the mystery of life.Some people are determined to push their beliefs on others. A number of these individuals feel so strongly about the superiority and correctness of their beliefs, that they are willing to pay the ultimate price of death to defend them. We need to understand and respect that all beliefs have value to the person expressing them. This essay represents my current understanding and my truth.
