“Bill W. was a quitter.”
Unlike Bill W. of Alcoholics Anonymous fame, we’re not sure if The Chemical Buddha ever quit anything. He just tended to pile more things onto his plate. Of course, he was fired a lot and countless numbers of people walked out on him, but he didn’t quit. There were also a lot of things he never started. But then, he never had any intention of starting those things either. But TCB did finish a lot of things. So he saw himself as more of a finisher. He liked how finishing stuff didn’t mean you were a quitter. Which made him wonder if you started something. Finished it. But didn’t start another were you a quitter? For example, what if you drank a case of beer and never drank another one? Not that The Chemical Buddha would ever limit himself to just one case of beer, but what if?
What do you have trouble finishing and why?
What things on your ‘to do’ list need to be started and when will you get to them?
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."
