"Seek not a good teacher. Rather, seek a good dealer."
From time to time, The Chemical Buddha had doubts about his path. When that happened he sought out spiritual teachers for affirmation that he was on the right path. After listening to them prattle on and on about clearing one's mind, releasing attachments, turning things over to a higher power and such, he was sure he had chosen the correct path. Especially when he talked with his favorite dealer who recommended some hydroponic pot from Amsterdam that the dealer said would, "Make you stupid." And to TCB, that sounded like clearing his mind. Besides it was a lot less of a hassle.
Do you hear what people actually say or do you hear what you want to hear?
How often do you twist situations to serve your world view/agenda?
What is the result of that twisting (if and when you do it)?
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."
