Let's Talk About Sex

“Sex is the reason we’re all here.”
The Chemical Buddha could never understand why certain types of people would get all uptight about sex. They wouldn’t talk about it. They didn’t want to see it on TV or in movies or advertising. And they sure as hell didn’t want to have it. (Or, at least that’s what they said.) But didn’t they realize that without sex (or the sex act), none of us would be here? And if everyone treated sex like they do, there wouldn’t be many of us to carry on. To TCB, that was the height of hypocrisy. Of course, he usually found people who were uptight on sex, were generally uptight about a lot of things. It was impossible to be conservative (or liberal) in just one area. Usually all of them were affected. That’s why there was nothing The Chemical Buddha enjoyed more than changing people’s view on sex. And after enlightenment through pharmaceuticals, he saw it as his second calling. Luckily, he was easily able to promote both.
What is your attitude on life? Are you open or closed to new things?
How does being open help you? How does it hurt you?
How does being closed help you? How does it hurt you?

We're Not Talking About Deordorant

“Every saint has a secret.”
The Chemical Buddha loved everyone. He just loved some people less than others. One such group was the hypocritical, holier than thou crowd. People who acted like they were perfect. Like they didn’t have any problems. What TCB discovered is that everyone had a secret. Something from their past they’re not proud of. Even The Chemical Buddha had some things from his past he’d rather people not know about. For instance, toward the end of his life, The Chemical Buddha doubted whether or not he was enlightened. He also worried that people would just think he’d ripped off the Buddha’s thinking and insights. And to be honest, after his passing, we did find a ‘Teachings of the Buddha’ book in his room with certain passages circled. We’re sure that’s just a coincidence though.
