"Guilt is what someone else thinks you should have done."
As we've discussed several times over, The Chemical Buddha had no use for guilt. He always did what he thought was right at the time. Just because someone disagreed with his choices was no reason to feel bad about it. In general, he found the people who tried to make him feel guilty about something usually lived boring lives where they were scared of their own shadows. And then felt guilty about being scared. TCB knew he only got this one life (and if he came back, it would be as some lowly slug or something. Especially after the life he'd lived.) so why feel guilty about living it?
What do you regret about your life?
Do you feel guilty about stuff you do or feel like you should feel guilty or both?
Do you think there are things people shouldn't do?
If so, what?
About The Elvis of Enlightenment
- The Chemical Buddha
- Not much is known about The Chemical Buddha (as he preferred to be called) other than he was a crack baby with fetal alcohol syndrome born into a family of hippie hedonists. Throughout his life, The Chemical Buddha sought spiritual enlightenment through excess. To put it quite simply, he saw himself as the Elvis of Enlightenment. While still in his-mid twenties, The Chemical Buddha left this earthly plain for the last time while beer bonging chicken gravy and shooting heroin as he engaged in an orgy that included at least four members of the amphibian family. His last coherent words, before he asphyxiated on vomit that was not entirely his own, was “Nirvana. Choke! Gag! Cough!” Did The Chemical Buddha transcend his earthly bonds through his unorthodox lifestyle? Did he find the key to “Nirvana?” Or was he answering a music trivia question? Here is a collection of the thoughts, sayings, views and bathroom graffiti that has been attributed to The Chemical Buddha. Was he a mystic sent to show us the way or just another drugged out freak that incoherently babbled a few crude views about life? Decide for yourself. This blog of his teaching is maintained by his "monks."
