"If you want to move the world, drink until you have bed spins."
People join various philanthropic organizations because they want to effect the world in some way. The Chemical Buddha himself started his movement to bring people into the consciousness of being unconscious. When his followers would ask him about his impact (and their's) they could have on the world, he responded with today's insight. Like Gandhi, he believed change started with the individual. But because it was hard to literally move the world by yourself, he suggested bed spins because that was a hell of a lot easier. The next step was to fill your bed with other people who have the spins and so on and so on. That was the way to move the world.
What impact do you have on your friends and family? Is it positive or negative?
What one thing would you like to see the world embrace/move toward?
What one thing could you do to help see that come about?
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."
