What Did I Learn from My Near Death Experience? I've Always Had a Feeling that I Had Some Important Goal to Accomplish. Then I realized...

It wasn't so much of a BIG Goal that was Needed to Be Done but Helping People Daily Thru My Entire Life. Simply Making the World a Better Place To Live. That Was The Lesson. 

Since I Did Not Die at Age 19... I've held Many Jobs that Made a Difference... and I Joined AA where the Opportunity Arose to Do 12th Step Service... and Now that I'm Retired, I Can Write my Blog to Help People Learn How to Live... and Learn History... and Have Fun Printing Drawings to Color... It's a Wonderful World...

My Jobs Included: Working as a Clerk in an Art Supply Store. I Helped People Buy Art Supplies and Gave Advice on How to Use What They Bought. Sometimes I Gave Bad Advice but In General, I Made the World a Better Place to Live... 

Then I Became a Draftsman in a Computer Company. We Made Machines that Helped Doctors Store their Patient's Charts. That's a Useful Idea... and Every Doctor Now Uses a Computer to Store Patient's Records.

Then I designed Equipment for the US Air Force. Helping to Defend the Country. 

Then I Delivered Pizza at Domino's... Helping Hungry People... Many Couldn't Leave the House... My Work Was Especially Useful During a Snowstorm...   

Then I Sold Electronic Equipment at Radio Shack. Helping People Solve Their Tech Problems. Our Store had a LOT of Retired Engineers that Could Give Accurate Technical Advice. I Learned from Those Old Men. 

Then I worked at The Welfare Department Helping Homeless People Live Indoors... and Get Food and Medicine... and Find a Job...

Now that I'm Retired... I Spend my Time Writing a Blog... Hopefully I Can Use this Platform to FIGHT BRAINWASHING by Republicans... Fox "News" Has A Mind Control CULT that Believes LIES...

I Know What it’s Like to Be Dead... 

Recently I Had a Colonoscopy. The Anesthetic used was propofol ( the same Drug that Killed Michael Jackson) – I remember in the Operating Room the Nurse said “Roll Over” and then Instantly I was in the Recovery Room Wondering IF I Had Had a Colonoscopy. So I asked… and She Said The Procedure was Over… and Would I Like a Cup of Coffee?

That’s What I Think Death is Like… Except no one brings you Coffee When You Wake Up because You Never Wake Up…

You Can Do It! You Can WAKE THE F*CK UP! 

Did You Know that Fox "News" Was Caught Intentionally LYING and Had to Pay $787.5 Million Dollars? OH! You Didn't Know That? Because they Didn't Tell You that Fact ON FOX NEWS! Every OTHER TV News Station Covered that Story Except FOX... Surprise! They Lied By OMISSION! Keeping this News SILENT...

My Near Death Experience. In 1974 My Friends and I Went Backpacking at Hetch Hetchy Reservoir in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. One Day We ate LSD and Peyote and Smoked some Marijuana... Then we went Mountain Climbing... 

Since We had a Lot of Extra Energy and Courage, We climbed up a Chimney... a crack in the granite rock where a person can Shimmy Up... I've never done that Before or After that Day. But That was a Special Day... Tripping!

Later, I walked down near the Edge of the Tuolumne River so I Could Watch the Water Bubbling UP in a Big Pool that had been Carved into the Granite over a Million Years...

and I Slipped IN! I Was Swimming Out of Control in the Raging Waters... The River Forced Me to the Bottom of the Pool... and then I GAVE UP... I RELAXED AND ACCEPTED DEATH. 

and then the River Pushed me Up to The Surface at a Spot Where I Could Climb Out. I walked back to the Campsite, got into my sleeping bag and stayed there for The Rest of the Day... Safe and Warm... 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

Hey... I believe that there is a Reason I Didn't Die that Day... I was Spared so I Could Accomplish some Unfinished Business... I Don't Know Exactly WHAT That Business IS... So I Just DO Everything As If It Was Important!

Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, Yosemite Park, California

Hidden in Yosemite National Park’s peaceful northwest corner, Hetch Hetchy Valley is a treasure worth visiting in all seasons. In spring, two of North America’s tallest waterfalls plummet spectacularly over thousand-foot granite cliffs. With its towering falls and dramatic domes, many have compared Hetch Hetchy’s grandeur to the more well-known Yosemite Valley. From early spring through late fall, visitors have easy access to a vast wilderness filled with high-country lakes, streams, and wildlife. Snowy winter days give adventurous visitors a chance to explore on skis or snowshoes.


I also enjoy singing songs and Playing the Guitar... This is My Latest Effort... a SATIRE of "LODI" By Creedence Clearwater Revival... 

"Oh Lord, Stuck in Ukraine Again...
Just about a Year Ago,
Vlad was Setting Out from Old Moscow...
Seeking to Bring Chernobyl, Back into the USSR...
The War Got Bad, The War Got Worse... I
Guess You Know it's True...
Pravda, The Russian People Got Screwed...
If I Only Had a Ruble, For Every Soldier Dead...
I could buy a Tractor and Start Me a Communal Farm...
But Vladimir is a Nutcase, He wants me to Go to the Front!
Oh Lord Stuck in Ukraine Again...
The Man from CNN, Said we were Gonna Lose...
Just Like in Afghanistan, we are Doomed to Bad News...
When the Babushkas Rise Up... It's time to Run Away!...
Oh Lord, Stuck in Ukraine Again... "

My Experience Using the Ram Dass Artificial Intelligence Program - IT WAS WORTHY! They Had the AI Machine Read All of His Books and Transcripts of Lectures in Order to Learn What He Thought...

https://ramdass.ai/

For Example: I Asked...
What should I do with my Life?

Answer: Ah, the question of what to do with one's life. It's a question that has been asked by many, and the answer is as unique as each individual who asks it.

You see, life is not a series of tasks to be completed, but rather a journey to be experienced. It's not about reaching a destination, but about the journey itself. It's about the process of becoming, of growing, of evolving.

Imagine that you have died and your life is about to be reviewed. What would you want to see? What would you want to have accomplished? What would you want to have experienced? This is your chance to do what others have failed to do. Look at the unloved one, the miserable one. This is your chance to do an act of love toward one who has had no love. This is your chance to do justice where intentional or unintentional injustice has been committed. This is your chance to give warmth and courage to one who feels only coldness, loneliness and death.

Now gently come back to your living body. With this feeling of respect and love, come back to your living body, and let this feeling remain with you, inside of you. Let it spread to each nerve, to each muscle, along every vein and artery. Let this feeling of respect and love spread inside you, throughout your entire organism, and then let it spread out into the world.

So, what should you do with your life? You should live it. You should experience it. You should love it. You should respect it. You should honor it. And most importantly, you should be true to yourself.

In the words of the Indian greeting, Namasta, "I honor the light within you." So, honor the light within yourself, and let it guide you on your journey through life.


SO... I Guess there was Some Wisdom in the Answer... But Will I go Back and ask more Questions? Not Today... but Maybe Later!


Who WAS Ram Dass? In the Sixties, He was a Psychedelics Researcher and Promoter at Harvard with Dr. Timothy Leary. (LSD, Magic Mushrooms and Peyote) Then He went to India Looking for Enlightenment and Met a Guru. Changed His Name and Published a Great Book... "Remember: Be Here Now" - It Has His Autobiography and then Many ART Drawings Explaining Eastern Religion. Real Name: Dr. Richard Alpert... Read More at:

A clown, a guru, and a doctor walk into a cabin. The clown says, “What I have in mind is eye care for 400,000.” The guru says “See here now.” The doctor says, “Brilliant. We can do that.” What actually transpired in 1978 was the start of Seva led by Dr. Brilliant with an eclectic group including Ram Dass, Wavy Gravy, Dr. "V", and Dr. Nicole Grasset. What came next was the landmark Nepal Blindness Survey using an Apple 2+ computer donated by Steve Jobs and a helicopter funded by a Grateful Dead concert. The story of Seva’s beginning is colorful and quirky, but the results are miraculous. Science, art, and spirituality are a potent blend that can transform lives! Witness for yourself the promise of ending avoidable blindness in Nepal and around the world.

I Had a Dream: We were walking towards the Entrance of the Los Gatos Library and there was a Thin Old Man dressed in a Small Bathing Suit ahead of Us. He pulled on the entrance to the Children's room and It was Locked... Disappointed, he turned around and I asked: "Are You Looking for the Man Who Works There?" He Said: "NO" and I Motioned towards the Main Entrance. We all Entered. He seemed lost so I asked: "Do you Need Help?" as I would ask any Lost Old Man... He Said: "NO" and then I asked again: "Can I Help You?" He said: "No. I'm Fine." and then we went on Our Own Ways. By That time it was Obvious to Me That he was Ram Dass and That it was a Rather "Heavy" encounter to Ask Ram Dass If I Could Help Him... a Meaningful Event... and I was Shaking... So we went downstairs and I went searching for a Book that I Has Started reading before (about Philosophy) - and on the same shelf was a large picture book of the Grateful Dead's Fare Ye Well Tour with four CDs (that were missing) and My friend asked me why I would want to check out that book and I said: "Too Look for Pictures of Myself." and then I woke up and Typed this Document... It's Best to Type it Up before I forget it... For Certain, I would have tried to help any Lost Old Man but It seems Important that I Offered Ram Dass Help in my dream. That's One Of His Main Teachings...

Of Course, To Understand This Chant It Would Be Handy To Know Who Ram Dass Was and To Have Seen the Country Joe and the Fish Performance of Fixing to Die Rag at Woodstock...

What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy.
As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny "failed to take into account man's almost infinite appetite for distractions."
"In 1984", Huxley added, "people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure."
In short, Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us. ~Neil Postman

I Keep on Seeing Posts on FaceBorg Promoting Psychedelics but... I Believe that They Confused Me for Years... IMHO They are Not a Great Tool... What Do You Think?

after Three Years of NOT Taking Psychedelics... I went to College, learned Electronic Drafting and Got a High Paying Job... That I Enjoyed... "Got My Life Back On Track!"

Seems Like I didn't Actually Experience True Enlightenment... I Just Took a Ride on an Enlightenment Simulator... Kind of a Roller Coaster for the Mind... Yes, I Had some FUN Experiences but... It Just Wasn't as Valid as What Happened to Moses... Or Buddha... What Was Your Experience???

JB Said: 
I’ve only had good trips. No after issues… but I never abused. It helped open my mind. It helped reduce anxieties and helped with ptsd while making Grateful Dead shows tolerable….

and I Replied: Great... for You... and I Had a LOT of Fun too... For Example: Mountain Climbing in Yosemite... I guess I hoped that the Psychedelic Experience would be MORE EPIC... MORE SIGNIFICANT... anyway... I Can See That It DID Cure Me of Being a "Corporate Corporate Greed Freak" and that's wonderful...

Birth Certificate Name: Nimarata Nikki Randhawa... She Married Michael Haley. Frankly Speaking, Indians Don't Have Much Credibility in the USA.

Don't You Hate It When You Call the Help Desk and an Indian Answers? 

Consider This: Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Bagwan Shree Rajneesh, Paramahansa Yogananda, The Hare KRSNAs... All turned out to be BOGUS... If You ate a Lot of Acid, "Eastern Religion" Made Sense... But Then in a Couple of Years, When You Sobered Up, It Seemed Ridiculous! Go Ahead, Eat a Freaking Hamburger... The Sixties are OVER!

In My Humble Opinion: Buddhism and Hinduism are Just Crazy! Hey, Maybe I'm Wrong and I'll be Reincarnated as a Flea... and then Have to Spend a Thousand Lifetimes as a GOOD Flea before being Promoted to a Cow... But That's Really Unlikely... Because I'm Gonna be a REAL BAD FLEA... and Refuse to Worship the Monkey God Ganesh!

Sure... Eastern Religion was GROOVY When
Jimi Hendrix was Singing About PURPLE HAZE.

One Good Thing about Indian Culture is Peyote... Would Nikki Haley Legalize Peyote Nationwide? 

and I Do Love that DRUM BEAT!

Ooga booga booga booga, Ooga booga booga booga, Ooga booga booga booga, Ooga booga booga booga, Ooga booga booga booga, Ooga booga booga booga... and It Goes On Like That for Hours... 

I am impressed by Gandhi. He Threw the English Out of India. Just Like George Washington and Nelson Mandela... Throwing OUT the European Slave Masters is a Great Idea. 

I Like the Books Written by Ram Dass. An American College Professor Real Name: Dr Richard Alpert... However, I feel certain that his Belief in Eastern Religion is Totally Wrong... and His Voluntary Choice to be Gay is a Bad Idea also... But he Wrote some Great Books!

Joke I found on FaceBorg:

Kenny bought a donkey from a farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.
In the morning he drove up and said, 'Sorry son, but I have some bad news. The donkey's died.'
Kenny replied, 'Well just give me my money back then.'
The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I've already spent it.'
Kenny said, 'OK then, just bring me the dead donkey.'
The farmer asked, 'What are you going to do with him?'
Kenny said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.'
The farmer said, 'You can't raffle a dead donkey!'
Kenny said, 'Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.'
A month later, the farmer met up with Kenny and asked, 'What happened with
that dead donkey?'
Kenny said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at $2 each and made a profit of $900.
The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?'
Kenny said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him his $2 back.'
Kenny now works for ENRON...

(The same Joke was Posted featuring Michael of Wells Fargo)

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

This joke plays on the infamy now surrounding former Enron CEO Kenneth Lay, whose oversight of the creation of more than 3,000 questionable Enron “partnerships” which were used to hide Enron’s debt and generate revenue from trades that lacked economic substance is well-satirized in the currently popular joke about a clever “city boy” who manages to pull in nearly $1,000 raffling off a dead donkey by concealing the animal’s true state.

Any thoughts that this joke might really be a biographical anecdote about Kenneth Lay are squelched by noting that it was circulating at least as far back as August 2001, a couple of months before the Enron scandal became public knowledge with the October 2001 disclosures of Enron’s $618 million quarterly loss, its $1.2 billion reduction in shareholder equity, and its announcement that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission was investigating a possible conflict of interest between Enron and its partnerships. Back then the joke was merely one of a resourceful city boy thrust into the country for his own safety by a witness protection program; finding himself among unsophisticated “country folk,” he uses his urban savvy to fleece them out of $1,000:
