NYC The separation of sky and earth Category: Life 
NYC The separation of sky and earthElection fever in NYC ! Can any of our politicians solve the problem of mankind? Our ancient heritage of ritual,morality and art are all in full decay. Critical times are here; the omens can be sensed everywhere; the world once again is about to shift its centre of gravity. Displacements of power are in the offing. They will not take place without war and violence. Bellicose ideology burgeons from within. Our own leaders under their rash of trite propaganda are the greatest threat ,not only to peace but to life and liberty.The wave is gathering and some day, maybe not today or tomorrow but the day after tomorrow, it will wash us all away. Perhaps that will be as it should be .But for the moment , we still possess that limited freedom of decision and action. We may still choose what we have to do to meet this danger.Today the community is the planet and the planet the community, yet we still authorize our leaders to spend' our' money on war and occupation rather then education and health?For me the national idea with the flag as totem, is the real problem ....it is the infantile nursery ego run rampant across the playground planet...like a music biz 'playa' snorting tram lines of coke and telling everyone how important he is.... This tyrant dragon that we have inherited as well as invented and sustained, will eventually annihilate everything for its own narcissistic self interest. The real killing joke , the nightmare philosophy of Dr Strangelove ...in full drag and disco balls...that we ourselves considered as paranoid fantasy, has become ... unfortunately the full technicolor reality we find ourselves in today.The generals are in control of our leaders not the sages and they still talk of 'winning' a limited nuclear war?!!! These are the greatest crimes against humanity and i hope one day we will see them held to account.We have to start empowering ourselves beyond our given systems of power, build our own small communities and create alternative models for our co-existance and sustainable future.I am not presenting any answers or solutions here but its un canny and scary how few alternatives are available. But whenever propaganda threatens to devalue, distort and do violence to truth, then it is our duty to resist and save truth or rather the striving for truth. It is treason to sacrifice love of truth, loyalty to the laws of nature for a flag or even your country.Surely the way to find our humanness ,is to see the divinity of every person and possible modulation of man?The role of the Artist (hero) is the same in modern times as ancient.Those that heed the call cannot wait for their communities to shake of the slough of pride, fear, rationalized avarice and sanctified misunderstanding.It is not society that will save the creative hero , but precisely the reverse.And so it is down to everyone one of us to share this supreme ordeal-carry the cross of the redeemer....not in the bright moments of the battle victory..... but in the silence of personal despair.New York ,like LA has always been a tough gig .....and the fillmore is pure legend and myth ..never a given and always a challenge...people are a bit too cool for school and spoilt with a never ending parade of the best of the best..... yet to penetrate the indifference and cynicism and actually get the house rockin' is very satisfying still!
