La-La land

Hi, here I am and there's my cave in the background. This place is stupendous. In return for 25 hours of easy work a week I get:
1. all the healthiest food and juice that I can drink
2. access to the weights, tennis court, sauna, beach, kayaks
3. access to the art building including supplies and models to draw
4. access to the best new-age library Ive ever been in
5. free reiki, massage, yoga, chanting, tai chi etc

All the people here are really happy and healthy and they come from all over the world. I look everyone deeply in the eye and everyone is smiling. Truely I must say this week has been one of the best Ive ever had in terms of over all happiness and well being. If anything Im a little too happy!

Ive been talking with my sister and perhaps when Im done here in october Ill move to Toronto for awhile where my feline daughter Yukdugu will meet me from Korean and I can help look after my human niece Sofia.

I took a two hour shiatzu meridian massage class this morning, in a little while Ill be headed to a spiritual healing class and after that Im headed for the art hut to begin work on the two giant oil canvases I stretched the other day.

Im thinking that this place will be a part of my yearly cycle now for many years to come. It seems to me to be an ideal living environment. It's like a commune in that Im not planning on spending a cent the whole time Im here. As soon as money is tottally taken out of your life for awhile everything changes a bit for the better and I think that's reflected in everyone's outlook here.

Truly, all is very well and I hope the same for you.

I checked out Ground Zero in order to find out whether or not 9-11 was a hoax. Results were inconclusive.

Whoa my mind is spinning! I wen tto the Museum of modern art and Ive never seen so many famous things and so many beautifull chic people looking at them. Whoa on the top floor there was a special Dada exhibit. I can hardly keep my head on right now. I feel like it's folk fest. A rasta ambassador met me at the bus depot at 6:30 this morning and advised me to be careful because today the terror level is at orange. I read the new york times and it seems as if ragnarok is approaching. I went to Ground Zero and yup, they sure did a number on those towers. Nothing much left at all except for a few flags and a bunch of guys in hard hats smoking cigars and talking in funny dialects. Hopefully I won't blow all my money on sunglasses and italian sausages on the street. The Omega bus is picking me up to take me to the compound at 4:00. I walked through central park. I took a taxi cab. I rode on the subway. Im dressed like a schoolboy.

Wow, I thought Langside was dead 56 years ago.
Who would have thunk that Id be here again and the place would be
more feng shui than ever. How many eons have I been sitting here on
this couch alone with this blue haze and the ghost
the ghost was kind this season only freaking me out a few times
giving me strange dreams
How many times have I been here with my lover and that broken stereo
and the ghost is myself from the past
and the future. I can see the future
yet the present still makes me cry. Although it's invisible
I cry forever.
myself in a past life weaps tears that I drink
out of my jaggermiester bottle now
and the war
is where Im headed

Wow, it's almost time for me to head for the Omega Institute. The Omega Institute is just outside of New York city and lots of folks go there and study the New Age like yoga and reiki and voodoo and crystals and that sort of thing. Im going down to help out with the stuff there until October. Im going to sort of check out the scene in AMERICA.

Hey did you guys notice that there's a war going on?

Here's Anita sitting inside the sacred Ameoba.
First I found this spot adjacent to the hill and meditated in the full lotus for 5 hours alone with single minded
concentration. Then Anita joined me and we constructed the impenetrable holy place
of special auspiciousness. From the surrounding area we gathered magical objects
and forged them together into a wand of power. Then we incubated the item in the warmth of the rising sun
and my orange dragon cape. This magnificant power object will be used during the auspicious hour

This saturday starting at 10:30. Doors close at 11:00

Spirited Energy

The Folk Fest is the Folk Fest.
For me a religios spirit dance. A vision Quest.
This weekend I meditated in elevated consiousness for many hours.
Found a magic tree. Spoke with the most high. Saw through, into, and around
all things.
I ran with the wind. Saw the visions. Witnessed the moon and the sun.
I fought demons.
I destroyed myself and yet here I still am. And next Saturday Night Im putting on a Rock Show.

Reality is crumbling
and the dream is being revealed
This can't be real!
The music gives me the power to levitate
and walk through walls.

Welcome to the festival
Welcome to the Hill
Welcome to the forever-night
to the endless rythem
