I have a new song for you all. It's called Revolution!
Well I just needed time out of the illusion to be entirely honest and needed to find out what my part is within it all!
I am not sure where all this will lead, for I am not interested in fame, money, limelight, self grandeur and false elevations of the ego. I know that now! I am only interested in creativity and connection to others through truth and love! This whole industry is full of ego, falsehood, fakers, users and abusers! Of course there are some positives, such as other wonderful artists and musicians that I have been blessed to work with and collaborate with, but unfortunately they don't pay the bills. Money is the pollutant that seams to distort the reasons for being involved in the first place. I am personally at the end of that journey, for I have little money, few possessions, and can clearly see through this third dimensional framework, that in my opinion is falling apart as I write. The only thing left at the end of the day is soul, the essence of our existence, the underlying force that speaks out to from the depths of our being. Through soul we come into the realisation that we are all connected, all are one upon this spinning mass of matter called Planet Earth!
I have needs in this life, such as finding my place, a home, a successful relationship, travel, learning from others throughout the world, immersing myself in nature, culture and the true beauty of this world. Money can fulfill this to a point, as it is what the current system is built upon. But if you look at the foundations of the monetary system you will see it is fundamentally flawed and is a system whereby we hand over our inner power and connection to a minority! What is this controlling force? Its not politicians, for they are subject to the force as much as we the people are! I could say more, but that is not my way, for it only give more attention to the problem. I know we will all start to collectively look after each other, and will start to demand more from life, beyond that what we have been educated (or de-educated) to believe in! I see more and more people falling victim to the conditions that surround us today, and unfortunately many are suffering alone.
If I can do one thing with my music, it would be to bring people together, in a celebration of our journey together towards divine unity. We are approaching a major shift as we approach 2012 December the 21st! This date has been coded in many of the ancient scriptures, from the Mayans, to the Hopi's, the Hindu's, and many other cultures! They all talk about the end of times, a shift into something new! With all great shifts comes great opportunity, but also there is pain, as the old ways try to hold onto the manifested empires that they have created. I could write for pages and pages on this, but that is not what this entry is about! I just want to offer this song to you all for your pleasure and hopefully it says what I am trying to say in a simpler form.
Peace and unity to you all..... Paul

Hi Kingsley. Crazy you where there and then a quake hit! Truly immense times indeed. The need to remain light and tuned in seams to be the key message here. I hope things are ok there now, I have not been watching the news lately!
Dear Paul & Johannes - it seems we are indeed living through precious times. It is all about movement and going forward. I recently learnt that the Chile earthquake had its epicentre in exactly the same place where our group stayed over on the coast - 70km north of the city of Conception. Also, during our trip 2 of us dreamed of tsunamis... but the reality is that we and our friends escaped harm whilst many didn't.... it is not only about timing - it is about function. We all have our function according to OUR time, OUR place, and OUR people.. we work with the recourses we have.....we are active within our environments, and we work according to our capacity....we become affective by gaining our own inner authority.. then we work in the world..... these are some of my immediate thoughts.... God Bless....

Guter Tag Johannes, wie gehts? I am afraid that my German limits my expression, but I did reach a moment of fluency once over a few pints of weiß beer in Munchen after a month of intense learning! Great insight on karma, again reiterates the need to possibly look back to such times to find key principles that hold so much power! I did see the flier with the foot about Laban, and interesting to see the links. I trained for 3 years in a chiropractic degree, but had to leave the training due to a number of constraints, but body work was a part of my life. All knowledge is good knowledge when applied. So my cup is full and I am in the process of applying. So much to do and it feels like so little time... Well trying to drop the time thing!

Thank you Johannes, so true, aligning to the realities of what we actually want life to be is the key, stepping confidently into the now and embracing the vision guided by truth. It appears we are all being put to the test today, for the polarities are being magnified. Perhaps the third dimensional world is altering and manifestation is happening faster, possibly related to the electro-magnet pulse of the Earth (Its heart beat) speeding up! From my research there has apparently been observable increase since the 80's and is predicted to reach is culmination in 2012. Maybe Karma will become almost instantaneous, reaping as we sow! So the need to be aligned to our true purposes is becoming more significant. Learning from cultures that are probably more in tune with this natural pulse is probably key to reawakening the wisdom within, to know by doing, guided by nature and the natural cycles.
I like the sound of your course you are running and will try and see if i can make it. Dorset is a great place and the concept sounds intriguing. I am aware of pilates and it sounds like it is based on similar grounding.

Hi Kingsley, great insight and thanks for sharing. It must be amazing to be getting out there and connecting to the real vibes in these places that are more natural and earth and community based. I believe its essential to find these moments to tune yourself in, especially with this overly yang orientated western based expression of living that the modern world seams to be engulfing itself in.
I have started to make the changes to move in that direction, but starting small, for I allowed myself to get caught up in the illusion of it all. But work spend on attuning my inner world, subtle shifts in my mind and intentions, I now believe my external world will begin to open up to new horizons. I have let go my ambitions of being a musician, well the western approach to it anyway and I am now working towards moving towards a more naturalistic way of life. Going to start by simply spending more time in nature, trips to Wales, local woodlands, working on bringing back my sense of adventure and embracing skills of bushcraft with friends to start off with. I am intending to attract more finance to myself, not sure how yet, but the intention is there, the ways and means will present themselves I am sure! I will not surround myself with more things with the money, but intend to purely use it to enable the transition to take place. My ultimate dream is to do more wilderness trips, to embrace that aspect of myself and to use nature as my guide. It feels more liberating and hopefully from this I can travel more to experience the natural cultures as you seam to be achieving. Very inspirational.
Tough in the Uk right now though, for it is really becoming more controlled every day, and the conditions are heavy here to be honest. But these are purely outside influences and I know the key is to see the vision in your mind and to take the first step, that I now clearly see as stepping into the now, into being. There I believe is the power and with that comes the ways and means to move into the true expression of life, freedom. Then the location does not actually matter.
yhablo español muy bien, pero no lo he hablado durante mucho tiempo ahora. Cuando soy en un país español él todo vuelve a mí… su bueno oír sus historias. (used the translator, but I would of spoken a pigeon version, lol)
And I just returned yesterday from an intense 2-week travel through Chile...down South into the national parks and active volcano sites..and into southern Argentina... the living there is more 'back to basics' and deals with the essentials rather than the unnecessary trappings of 'modern life'... and (as with my Oct. 08 trip to Morocco) it makes me realise that much of the world is 'getting on with life' whilst us 'moderns' are being caught up in the 'crisis' meme.... we should not be distracted but focused... I sense people are being distracted onto weaknesses rather than focusing on strengths.... There is more hope than not...

I do like to travel, and I know there is a journey ahead of me. First I am in a process of shedding excess stuff to allow the freedom to transcend. Sounds like you have travelled and had some enlightening experiences and found your true self and freedom.

Hi Kingsley and Johannes, great to receive your words as they give me hope that there is a pulse still out there! It's crazy how it all is today what with the banks showing their true colors, and the cracks just seam to keep on appearing everywhere. Your are both right, the shift happens within, but at times the conditions from the outside get in the way. Its as if the worlds in a trance and have completely handed over all individual power! To what? Everything is just so heavy in the UK right now... I long for a new way, for true leadership to be shown from real people who have honor, selflessness, integrity and love. With a message that liberates and informs, removing all illusional barriers that hold back the creative flows that will heal the world if set free! That is the true meaning of a revolution to me, one that is needed more than ever... Thanks for the connection.. Mucho gracias Paul
Thanks again for the music Paul. Just by shifting how we think we are making a contribution. Thoughts have their own potential and power... like your music, they are vibrations. Of course, we all have to 'pay the rent'...yet it's the style we choose to live that pays us... I made a shift from my own comfortable position in Lancaster, UK to be here in Andalusia... There's a Spanish saying that goes: 'Take what you want' says God, 'But pay for it!' All the best amigo...
