  • Guru Meditation

    I spent several hours today in silent meditation, although I haven’t been able to clear my mind for even the span of a single breath. On the plus side, I discovered that I’m able to sit cross-legged with a straight posture for extended periods of time. The original Amiga OS had a unique crash screen […]

  • Channeled Yogic Wisdom

    I’ve been watching a lot of mystical videos on YouTube to help me get past my fears and to better understand the spiritual evolution that’s happening all over the world as humanity as a whole evolves to a higher level of consciousness. Alex Ferrari’s Next Level Soul podcast has introduced me to dozens of people […]

  • Guru Yogananda

    Guru Yogananda

    Yesterday I read Paramahansa Yogananda’s Autobiography of a Yogi for the first time. This is the book that Steve Jobs first read as a teenager at Reed College, then read multiple times in India while sick with dysentery (he’d traveled there seeking enlightenment), and then he reread the book every year since, at least according […]

Nobody would care about Gerald Ford’s reputation if […]

    The title of this post comes from a book I’m rereading, Dark Ages America: The Final Phase of Empire by Morris Berman. Most of my e-books are on Kindle, but during the years when I worked at Google, I started buying from the Google Play store, which means I have two different digital libraries. Sadly, […]

  • Disney Mind Control

    As you may have guessed from previous posts such as my tongue-in-cheek imaginary dialogue between two Japanese “Imagineers” working on Disney mind control (apologies for any grammatical errors in the Japanese, particularly with the pronouns, which I didn’t proofread thoroughly in the machine translation), I’m fascinated with the evils of corporate entertainment’s technological manipulation of […]

  • The Dark Side of Christian History

    I’m rereading chapters from a book I bought 20 years ago, while researching the whole “mind control” / “dark occult” sphere, The Dark Side of Christian History by Helen Ellerbe. Link is to an article by the same author about, specifically, the Inquisition aspect of Christian authoritarian mind control. There’s a subtlety that’s lost on […]
