Voice of the Resistance #1

Welcome to the Voice of the Resistance. After the end of the first year of the Voices in My Head series, I decided to end them. As My life has Changed drastically in the last few days, from the ashes of the Voices comes THE VOICE OF THE RESISTANCE. From now on I am no longer committed to rules and regulations. I can Move from place to place, go anywhere and release the words of truth as long as there Is a terminal near by (hopefully a Mac). As for now i have a couple of dark little cellars from which to project my views and information. This will Not be what you were used to because that is dead and buried. Things have changed. I have changed. The View from here amazes me, it would probably scare you to death. I find my humor fading rapidly, but I will try my best to keep it here, for where are we without a sense of humor and irony? So the underground begins... a nightmare made flesh.


I think this is more appropriate for my former series but it will make a good transition point from there to here...This is from a speaker at my graduation into the void.


THE PSYCHIATRIC HOT LINE

If you are obsessive/compulsive; press 1 now, again and again and again...

If you are co-dependent; have someone press 2 for you now.

If you have a multiple personality; press 3,4, and 5 now.

If you are schizophrenic; just wait for the little voice to tell you what to do.

If you are paranoid; don't do ANYTHING because we know WHO you are and we are coming to get you right now!


A moment of Zen:

Do not run away; let go. Do not seek, for it will come when least expected.

nothingness cannot be defined; the softest thing cannot be snapped.

If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Moving, be like water. Still, be like a mirror. Respond like an echo.

It is the artistic process, therefore, that is reality and reality is truth.

Having totality means being capable of following "what is," because "what is" is constantly moving and constantly changing. If one is anchored to a particular view, one will not be able to follow the swift movement of "what is."


A poem

Into a soul absolutely free
From thought and emotion,
Even the tiger finds no room
To insert its fierce claws.

One and the same breeze passes
Over the pines on the mountain
And the oak trees in the valley;
And why do they give different notes?

No thinking, no reflecting,
perfect emptiness;
yet therein something moves,
Following its own course.

The eye sees it,
But no hand can take hold of it--
The moon in the stream.
Clouds and mist,
They are midair transformations;
Above them eternally shine the sun and the moon.
Victory is for the one,

Even before the combat,
Who has no thought of himself,
Abiding in the no-mind-ness of Great Origin.

- A Taoist Priest


Poor Skeleton steps out, dressed up in bad blood,
bad brains, bad thoughts, and others deeds
Poor Skeleton no doubt, one of these days
you can cast aside your human, be free

-XTC, Poor Skeleton Steps Out



The world's as ugly, ay, as sin.
And almost as delightful,

-Frederick Locker-Lampson, The Jester's Plea



Man: An animal so lost in rapturous contemplation of what he thinks he is as to overlook what he indubitably ought to be

- Ambroce Bierce, The Devil1s Dictionary



JOURNEY

Many people journey through life looking for enlightenment...few find it. People read books, try experiments, and some look to nature for the answers to their questions. The one place you can always find enlightenment is ones own mind....

-Myke, a long forgotten thought


This is the end of the first chapter in the second volume of the book of Voices . I will continue on with this until I feel it is no longer necessary, which may never come... So I sit here in the dark. Far away but one step behind you...

The Crow said "don't look!"
