we are working also!



Heres a recent email i sent to a good friend.... i thought it would be nice to share it publically..
edited out a couple personal notes.. but 99% intact... Enjoy!


------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm sorry..
but the wheels are still turning in my brain...

I feel the whole point is that.. there is so much we can do and
offer.. and so many things we can explore and experience.. if we
allow ourselves to..

growing up..
My pops would pick me up from school.. then lay down in the bed and
watch tv... fall asleep.. then get up for work.. do the same thing all
over again.. every day.

I just recently spoke to my father.. and his conclusion is that he is
subjected to the worlds conditions.. and how he cant do what it is
that he likes to do.. because the world is designed in such a way that
it wont let him..

Im a totally different breed.

We all have so much that we are given. when i look around me right
now.. there are tons of things that i have available that i have not
used yet.
So i asked myself.. what is it that i want.. i defined it.. and
explored why i wasnt energetically aligned with that reality..
and then executed it... deciding.. that yes.. i like to touch.. and
massage.. and do reiki.. so lets make money doing it.. and bam..
gigs comes out of no where..

then.. and first and foremost music.. why am i not performing? why am
i not assisting people to produce their music.. i have the tools for
that..
ok.. then lets do it.. boom... recording music.. traveling around for
free just to do kirtan..

making remixes for people for money.. doing
shows and getting payed for it. playing drums for peoples performances..
giving skateboarding lessons..
this is all new territory!

ive manifested a nice chunk of change.. in 2 weeks.. ive neeeever
done that before. and i have faith that with sincerity of purpose
everything will increase.. as that is the course its been taking so
far.

and thats simply through being consistent.. and being on the grind..
but only through the gifts that i have and are excited to offer.
Its more like.. i "get to do this" feeling .. rather than i "have to do this" .

you said i wouldnt like the idea of getting a job... well i didnt like
the idea of my laziness in what was right in front of me to offer
either...
same conclusion.. work! work! work!

You have so much... like you were saying.. you have so much money in
abundance.. what are you doing with it?
Take that course you always wanted to take... start your own thing...

some people like to go to school for it.. and wait until that happens
to start doing stuff.... some people like to go to barnes and nobles..
and get a book.. or youtube it.. or go to someone directly who they
know that does it.. and learn... and start right away!

maybe you are satisfied where you are ;-) ... and that amazing too..

i remember seeing an old chinese lady with all these bags filled with
cans on her back.. going from garbage to garbage on 2nd ave..
i thought for a moment... that you could look at her and say.. damn...
that sucks that she hasss to do that. but maybe for her.. shes the
most happiest person ever...
just simply doing her service of collecting cans and surviving like
that. so the joy is the objective.

theres so many options for you.. and its because you have been given
so much.. the simple step is to use it to do what it is your inspired
to do..

or just give the money to me.. that 300 bucks could go to an awesome
art presentation that we would use to heal the mind body and soul of
millions..
its soooo fair. lol.. because Im also working... on the griinndddd...
paying it forward in the most necessary way.. it feels good to be
able to say that and affirm that without any guilt.. yes.. if anyone
gives me their money.. im gonna use it in an amaaazzzinggg way... that
will come back to that person a million fold.. and be used to help
loads of others come closer to their true selves....
Your working... but you are giving your money to all kinds of
people... and every time you give your money to stores.. and the
electric company.. etc etc.. or to cirque du soleil.. do you say..
"its not fair.. im working.. what are you guys doing?!?!"

no you understand.. that they are also working.. to bring you
electricity.. to prepare food stuff on a rack for you to eat.. to
bring you amazing acrobatic entertainment.

we are working to bring you an amazing conscious nightlife
experience.. we are working.. rehearsing.. training.. to bring you
great music.. that you can dance to and find great release through..
we dont just show up and start banging on instruments and singing...
we are working.. to stretch your body and bend it and massage it into
healing and revitalizing states... we are working assist your favorite
musician to finish his album. or for him to have a place to express
himself musically.. we are working and cooking.. trying to feed you
when you come to our events..

And theres a shift of experience that says.. yes! i am working to! i
am valuable and the work i am doing is valuable and necessary..
feeling worthy of life..
so..
you SHOULD give me your MONEYYYY!

ofcourse i say this with love.. and just using myself as an example..
im not trying to get you to give me money or anything like that ;-)
but writing this and typing also allows me to further process things..
...........

we live in 2010.. new paradigms!... information is available like no
other time in this world ever! why not dive in?

love u

the mission.. the love.. the vision..

Aloha beautiful soul.

There is so much to see ... so much to do..
Approaching the love of art from a place of empowering others. Empowering others with the understanding that they have a choice. You can choose how to respond to what is given to you in live. No longer living by default, or by the ideas and perceptions of another. Living from a place of satisfaction.. no longer needing validation from the world to feel happy.. but having access to a deep sense of love thats always available.

So much has happened since my last blog. Everything that has happened has ushered me into a place of more grounding. More determination to live my love. Sink fully into the reality of divine grace and mercy.. Translating my experiences through art.. through music.. through community and tribe. Learning to finish projects.. putting important things first.. and being consistent with my service.

I'm putting a lot of energy into building a high quality music production system.. For live shows and studio recordings. In order to assist the growth of these new times.. of conscious expression.
In order to assist the mass healing that is happening on a physical, emotional, mental and ultimately spiritual level. And a lot of it has to do with using what I have been given.. to its fullet potential. Offering it to the people for the highest well being of all... And in that honoring what I have.. more will be given.

That has been proven true with the srikalogy project. Finishing that up.. and putting it out there.. has led to so many opportunities of collaboration and big gigs and shows.. In my constant meditation and prayers in asking what can i do to move forward... The answer kept shouting at me.. "You have so much.. use it.. finish it up.. and give.. In this you will find so much abundance and growth.." The srikalogy vol1. project was my journey collaborating with different artists and also a journey through my different realizations and understandings in music production. So in a way it was like a mesh of new and old production approaches..

I often remind myself what is the goal of all of this? Well.. this is an experiment. "In the journey" is an experiment. I'm testing the sublime reality. Can everything really be possible through divine grace? Are we really stuck .. and at the mercy of outside conditions? Or does consciousness really create reality. I'm voting that consciousness creates reality.. you?
and in that law.. and in that journey of purifying consciousness.. My vision.. is a artist community.. focused on empowering.. uplifting.. inspiring.. healing.. and helping each other to invoke our true power in life.
Having a place for musicians to record.... spaces for expression on all levels.. live shows that lead to amazing transformations.. whether it be through reggae.. kirtan.. hiphop.. dance.. rock.. etc etc.. A community where we help each other grow and become the best musician or artist that we can be.

Its happening.. Its growing.. time is proving my hypothesis to be true... It happens even faster when the single vision becomes the unified vision. Our vision.
