Real Freedom vs. Controlled. Freedom

So in my teenage tenure I've seen music take a drastic change. The radio waves once gave way to party music then evolved to highlighting living conditions. Was this by chance or by plan. Just think, if you're bombarded with negative content on a regular, reminding you day in and day out, of your circumstances, you too, will become num to life. 

There's always been volience in every culture and community, it just wasn't never brought to front in their music like it is in ours. At least, I never heard it in mainstream. If you were to study the origin and transition of music in the black culture, it have always been distributed and controlled by outside influences. The airwaves from which we receive our music were as well. So just these two facts alone should tell you where I'm going with this. He that own the land have the power, sort of speak. 

We went from hidie hidie hidie hoe to today's foolishness. There are still diamonds out there, but they are definantly in the rough. Some don't get no light of day. As you should now see, this is by design. They say, "well conscious music don't sale", this is hilarious. It use to sell. Just think, if I continue feeding you slope at some point, this becomes your routine diet. You have no idea what a good meal look or taste like. Now someone finally ask, "why not feed them right" and my response, "well they won't buy it." You see how foolish this sound. Okay, this is the same excuse they use in music distribution and we buy it, no pun intended. 

At some point we have to wake up. No one else going to do it for us. The BIG question is how. Understand this, I am fully aware of my history: we were infurtrated, captive, murdered, broken from families, raped, beaten, manipulated, conditioned, and hung, then freed to continue the cycle all over again on a different level. So the question remain, how. Let's see, first freedom can't be given. It has to be taken. Here's the misconception, not from the oppressor, but from you. Think about it, if the civil rights movement served its purpose, what are we actually fighting. Of course, it's harder on a black man, yes our opportunity is scarce, you're right them assholes move the jobs out of our neighborhoods. So, what are you going to do. Well, that's on you, but I can share "how" I do. 

WHO am I? This is the foundation to the rest of your life. You're not what this establishment say you are: thug, stud, GQ, playa, low life, 2/3 of a person, nigger, nigga, coon, black, African American, and tons of other empty titles. You are a king, created for nothing less than the best by the best. You are a natural creator. Everything you need, you already have in seed form. You lack anything. All things must conform to your demand. And once this way of living has reached its maturity, then you will see, this don't mean nothing if you don't acknowledge He who given you this and contribute to mankind. 

If you were to grasp the "WHO am I" concept, your hood days are now over. You can now change your environment thru perception, which is everything. The science of this mastery start to change your circumstances. That seed start to take form, because it now has it's nourishment. Brother I tell you, the sky is truly the limit at this point.

Spiritual Development

  Many have often misunderstood when I bring up the spiritual development concept. They tend to think I'm only saying, go to church or go get repentance. Although, these are pivotal moments in your journey, they are not to be treated as the destination point. There are a more intense level of depth we must achieve. And know this, it will take the rest of your life. But, in order to maximize this wealth of insight, one must be open and flexible for change, in some cases, a change in the way you were originally taught. 

  The average person goes thru life letting it just happen to them, not exercising the God-given talent they posses. There are many spiritual gifts at our service. We just haven't allowed ourself to tap into our core presence. The environment we're in plays a vocal part in the ill shape we become. Yes, we are products of our environment. But, we can switch this. 

  After reading in one of the greatest books ever, I read a text that stated, "I created man in my image and likeness". I thought to myself, wow, this is interesting. I'm a spitting image of my Creator. And not only that, I act like him. Wow, this is amazing. This open up another level of depth in my spiritual development. I was able to see in these few texts, I am also a creator. The light was turned on and the door was unlocked. I enter a whole other realm of peace and understanding. During this process more and more things start to become clearer. It seemed that I been living, at the time, 32 years of my life with my I eyes wide-shut. 

  The more things I begin to learn, the more and more I found that I didn't know nothing. After a while and some ego adjustments, I grown to be cool with my insufficient nature, now I understand grace, at least at this moment of my life. 

  The development simply consist of, really "knowing" who you are and acting accordingly. Understand, when you were uniquely handcraft by the Master Designer.There were NO errors, none what-so-ever. This is fact. In this western society, we are bombarded with extremes in the media. And we are compel by this source and a lack of understanding of our true essence, to indulge in the ill behavior. But, once we take ownership in this new found, but yet old knowledge, we open a door to another dimension of possibilities. 

4 Things to take away: 

1) Know who you are

2) Know what you want

3) Know why you want it

4) Know how you will proceed

Seeing Clearly

It is said that, " The eye is a lamp of your body. If your eye is healthy then your whole body will be full of light. "   In the journey of living we perceive things differently than others. We're just not the same. Even in a field of grass as far as the naked eye can see, the blades are differ in shape and form. No two days are the same.  
                  
       Therefore, we are diverse when it comes to viewing our reality. Nevertheless, we have similar notions whether they're so-call, good or bad. Our perceptions are learned and controlled for the most part. But, we must deter from this babble and foolishness. Pay attention, there have been things in your life since birth, to reshape the original patten of truly living. And these are the things that you must challenge to get back on track.
 
    Once you've come to that space of awakening, your views will be formerly attainable. Then you will have a " Healthy eye." With this frame of thought you will begin to live a more fulfilling life. It will seem that everything around you has changed, but this is far from the truth. You have just embodied the experience of the prodical son first hand( welcome home). This is your true destiny. Live life.

Sightless Living

Faith is truth, it's the only thing that matters. We have been mislead and bombarded with images that have formed our lives. These images has robbed us of our greater purpose of self. The first thing some of us do in the morning is watch the news. Little do we know, this sets the tone of your day. You are operating from the Sight realm. There's no power in this dimension. You have no control. Your will to live been taken from you and replaced with incompetence and a lack of understanding.

You become barren to possibilities and loose all hope for life. And you drift further and further from the truth, your truth. In this frame of thought, you are lead to believe life is dormant. Here, you start to function from a place of reaction. This only weakens the spirit and you start to take everything personal. Sight has fully taken over your life. Situation are leading you now. Lay-offs and downsizing are taken personal; illness and death in the family, you take personal. Not to mention, the things we actually have control over are now just gone to rubble. For instance, if you showed up earlier to work, you could have gotten that promotion or if you would've spent more time with your kid, there would have been a better relationship there.

However, we wasn't created for such foolishness. There's actually an art to our greatness. It first starts with your identity. Once you come to terms with this, your whole existence changes. Jesus came to us, his ultimate goal was to wake us back up through repentance and born again. And if we were to take this spiritual act to heart, then you start to see the fruits of this action. But, know this, it will be like a junkie coming off drugs, there will be turbulence. Yet, you will survive. Trust me, stay the course. Also, just like a junkie, if you tend to go back to the old habits, there will be a relapse and this can hinder your progress. 




The ultimate goal here, is to get back to your true essence. Faith and truth resides here.  Creativity has now been returned to its true nature. You start to learn faith creates. Faith working with thought starts to manifest. You are now working in your original habitat. God know has you as a co-pilot and not just somewhere in the back of the coach session. Some of you camp out in the luggage area, let truth be told. But now, in this new seat of your life, is just the beginning. Stay the course. Life is grand from this view.

Lost in Translation

We find ourselves lost between the words interpreted by others. Sometime this mishap is use to control us, other times its due to ignorance. Centuries ago man tried to interpret scripture for many reasons; to find deeper purpose of life or curiosity of the findings of a new text.  In doing so, there was a sense of true commitment to the essential self of what Christ was speaking of, that was lost. Jesus's sole purpose is to get us back to our original state. And he understood, in order to do this, we have to reprogram our minds(repent). Somehow it became to be more about how well you spoke the language of a Christian; how holy one could be, not for the creator, but to be validated by others. It became ego base. And then that shift the importance from a spiritual journey and the reconnection to the creator, to ones ideology and dogma, creating a dual sense of the creator. This system open the door for mediation between you and god.

    These set of principles and ideas shaped western civilization.  During the reformation period religion became one of the pillars of our society. We as people quench for hope and thrive on a greater tomorrow when in a life of disparity. This human trait led to exploitation. 

      It's easy to prey on the weak in spirit. This became the norm, even though this concept was an old strategy used long ago, but it was affective. Through manipulation, we dug our on ditches, throw ourselves in it a d right before we bury ourselves, we ask the question, " how did I get here or why they pushed me in."

    The ditch become our normal. We stop making efforts to get out the hole. It becomes our new home, our way of living. We shop there, we get educated there- and that's on the good end of the ditch, others drop out, we build careers while others remain in poverty. The ditch has become our new reality. The true essence of you are lost in translation. 

   Before your conception you were once in what some call paradise but whatever name we put on it, there was a connection to the creator that words can't explain or describe, at least not mine.  In this union you didn't experience needs or wants. Those words didn't even exist. You were " more than a conquer". See conquers once had opposition. To be more than a conquer, we could never know the true meaning of this in a physical state. One would have to "repent". 

    The thing of being lost in translation, we took some of the meaning of the words of the bible and put an english meaning to it. For instance, repent, in Greek, this mean simply, to change your mind or way of thinking. We have took this and put an English spin on it and revise the meaning to say, to be forgiven of sins. This is a problem. 

   The problem with this, is you spend most of your life, if not all, on trying to stop doing something that you have been conditioned to do. This cause frustration and a resentment to the creator because you can't see change. You think the change should be in the creator, but it must be your thinking. 

    Our conformed way of thinking isn't compatible to the creator. There are too many limitations and boundaries in this state. Then on top of that we have to deal with an ego. THE EGO AND GOD DON'T GET ALONE. 

   The ego was dormant when we were with the creator. It didn't have anything to feed on. But once given power( ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil), he then thought he was God. It's self centered, arrogant, manipulated, cunning, and a liar. When in the ditch, it will pick up power and become full of itself and you never seen it coming. The ego knows how to keep you from true revelation of the scripture and keep you at bay, it tends to keep you in shallow water. Therefore, we go thru life with a thrust that just can't get quenched, unless we repent(to change mind). 

Life can change for you at any given moment. The choice is solely yours. The change is simple but heavy: 1) know who you are and 2) gauge your actions on the why, in what you do. 

Note, I didn't put belief in the equation, because when you know who you are, you then learn that your brief system is the heart beat to you your existing. 

The Inactive Spirit

A seed can't perform properly out of its domain. We can take an apple seed and place it on concrete and it will not function. It needs other elements to be what it's call to be.

    The soil needs to be rich in content. This represents the foundation to grow. Rain is an important factor in this process as well. It's the nourishment that sustains the growth process. Time is a beautiful thing here. Because once in the soil, there are things that take place that I can't scientifically explain. But, whatever take place during this period, it's very significant in the process. 

  Once that dynamic force take place in the ground there's a form produced that the eyes didn't comprehend before, a tree. Understand, before it breaks the surface, the roots are tapped into an unseen chain network beneath the ground that's unbreakable, unmeasurable. All possibilities are outlined here. Destiny becomes reality. The foundation is laid. This is the birth of everything "the seed" is to become. 

    Now what was preceived is now perceived. Everything that took place before this process, breaks the ground surface in the form of its early infant stages. One can't tell from its current state, what it will become. However, the nature of "the seed" is full aware of its destiny and possibilities. Even though, only the fragileness is what appears to be seen at this moment, the network it connects to runs deep. It coexist with every other living thing that you can think of. More importantly, its connected to its Source.

     Here is where growth and sustainability begins. Everyday after this, becomes a continual process in its development. In plain sight, the "now a tree" appears to take care of itself. But remember, it's still connected to the Source. During these stages, the tree goes thru "seasons". These seasons are paramount in its growth and sustainibility. The same Source that has a lock on the the rooting system is the same Source that formulated the seasons and other elements that's needed for the tree's advancement. Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter is systematically put in this order from the divine source.This is to keep perfect harmony during the development. All seasons are needed, I can't stress this enough. 

   Spring represents the transition from the unseen spiritual to three dimensional physical realm. We now see the form. Summer allows the form to grow and experience the beauty of itself. Fall gives the form time to give back from whence it comes. At the same time allowing it to make room for new beginnings. Winter is a major part in the development stages for what's to come during the following season. There are so much more to elaborate here, but I'll bring up one more point, the tree spends it's whole life giving back to humanity. This is perfect in every way. 

   Thru this journey "the seed" gets a chance to perpetuate a cycle of living and giving. And this is the natural order of things. Therefore, this is why it's important to know your worth. You are a seed from the Most High. However, you risk the chance of being an inactive spirit, if not allowing and being aware of the process and stages mention above. I hope this was helpful. God Bless.

A Senseless Paradigm

   I tend to live in a this depleted state of mind, claiming dead things and honoring pain in my life.The fool tube is turned on in the early stages of my life and I'm influence by images of no substance, due to the fact I don't have no substance. The music of my choice is parallel to the lifeless lifestyle I indulge in. My surroundings are a spitting image of this bubble I created. What I call fun is recklessness and to seeing someone that looks like me, down and at their worst. "If I can't get it, you can't have it." This is my daily motto. I will live by it and I will die by it- just keeping it real.

   This reality, is all I know or known. Sure, I had good people pass thru in my life at times. But, not long enough for a life changing impact. I guess the patience isn't there either. And love, ha, what love!! I haven't seen love sense it seen me, I suppose. My only refuge, is my drug of choice and my therapy, is letting these bullets fly, such a stress reliever. And you got the nerve to ask, what's wrong, are you kidding. The question I'm constantly asking, what's right.  

  So, I go back to doing what I know. My only guidance is this reality that I created, by default. Ignorance is bliss. If I only knew how to loose these shackles, man, I'll be something else. I've seen other brothers get it together, it seems. But, they come back to the hood and we remind em. Ain't no love, we ain't proud of ya, hell, I don't love myself. So, give me that on your wrist and neck, it look betta on my mines anyways. 

  I'm crying for help, but I don't know how of what to ask. All I know, we dying over here and it seems to be no cure. What's the remedy for a senseless paradigm in a self invoked genocide culture. 


Your Truly,
