"An unexamined life is bliss."
Once the Chemical Buddha set out on his path of self-examination (which took some really big mirrors) and enlightenment, he arrived at today’s insight. And believe us, once he figured that out, he wondered why he went that direction in the first place. He figured if one never looked at their lives they wouldn't experience things like loss, guilt or regret. It was realizing what could have been and opportunities missed that led to that pain. We can’t tell you how many times TCB told us the story of how much he regretted not eating the roach of one particularly potent spliff he smoked. Legend has it, he regretted that for the rest of his life.
If anything, what do you regret about your past?
What can you do differently to live without regret?
What stories do you tell that others are tired of hearing and why do you tell them?
What from your past do you need to let go of?
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."
