Alternative thinkers in western society have struggled over the decades in creating a fundamental foundation for their practices. The mould or template in which our population is geared for is seemingly very efficient at keeping our conscious thought in line; most of our talents, time and efforts are primed towards satisfying the essential needs of physical survival and temporary psychological satisfaction. We can observe clearly this phenomenon in economics, collectively we have created a sort of automated software program that supports and upholds materialistic supremacy to the unfortunate end that it has stratified the entire western hemisphere into this narrow perception where material is everything, appearance is everything and that by observing empirically humanity strives. It is true that all of those things are indeed essential for maintaining the fundamental base level of survival, after all matter must be ordered and maintained if anything above is to exist. But, the scale is tipping far to the right which is creating this imbalance that is transgressing natural order. The left hemisphere of the brain is dominating, the left hemisphere of the world is dominating, and masculinity has assumed power whereupon rationality dictates irrationality. I suppose a perfect example of this appearing in the manifest world is the historic display of patriarchichal dominance over the past several hundred years. The male consciousness has done what it needs to do to provide and to protect, but in doing so in such an extreme the female consciousness has taken upon itself to become submissive which again creates this imbalance of power. It is cosmic domestic abuse.

In response to this spousal abuse, alternative thinkers, intellectuals, artists and free thinkers alike have brought it upon themselves to return to this harmonious middle in which was originally where we wandered from. The most prominent movement that was expressed in the manifest world was obviously the vibrant and turbulent 1960s, the civil right movement proves a great progressive step into the “left” direction. more and more people were exploring their conscious potential through psychedelic substances and eastern philosophy made its way into the awareness of westerners. We saw sexual liberation, we saw some of the most creative music and art surface from the transpersonal realms, the times were beautiful. These waves crescendo over the concrete instalments that the rigid 50s placed, freeing many a mind from its own confinements. But once again the natural order of checks and balances occurred. Briefly for a small wink the voice of the feminine mind was being heard and recognized but it sought to manipulate and it faced a bitter downfall. Psychedelic culture took a pitfall once an entire generation of lsd casualties finally came back to earth. They didn’t know what to do with all of the information that they ignorantly tapped into and ended up as malfunctioning minds that could not operate properly in society. The beautiful irrationality turned into self deluded psychotic ranting, sexual freedom become an excuse for promiscuity, and the hippie generation became diluted with delinquents looking for an excuse to get fucked up. THIS BITCH IS OUTTA CONTROL!!!!! Lost in her own sorrows the female consciousness failed to last and resumed its submissive role. I suppose if she wanted to maintain a good relationship with the masculine energies she still needs to stay within the reasonable boundaries where she has the freedom to express and nurture but takes into consideration the other side of the spectrum. As the pendulum sways back and forth the constant struggle for supremacy will continue to arise as the driving force for the evolution of the universe. Since we are here we might as well make the best of this tango and enjoy the extremes of the experience and learning to appreciate the moment of peace and silence where the pendulum returns to the middle. We are destined to return to that source one day, well I suppose we are already there always connected to it. But as the pendulum loses momentum after every passing the we will return to the perfect and absolute harmonious nature of pure emptiness only to be thrown out again in a violent explosion of big bangs, and so we do it all over again.

meh. at least they had fun. and i dont think sexual freedom was an excuse for promiscuity, i think that as they 'ignorantly tapped in' they also tapped into a lot of primitive behaviour, flipping the bird at this bisexual society that is living in denial. love is what we are all desperately trying to attain, equality is what we've always been hungered for. and sure, they couldn't "fit" back into society but... why the fuck would they even want to at that point. i'd rather be poor, wise and legitimately happy than to serve something i know is absolute poison for all of us and shouldn't even exist in the first place. you gotta take a step back and look at the big picture and see that in every second you are being offered a tremendous amount of beauty and freedom, much more than you could think. it is in that moment if youre lucky enough youll realize that all these facades that were set up by people before us dont necessarily need to affect our lives as heavily as they do and that you can just let loose and do whatever you desire. though out of the million year spectrum you could have existed you exist NOW it doesnt mean you have to be confined to this generation whatsoever, its an illusion within an illusion you create for yourself. and to say that women are submissive is naive, because everyone knows behind every great man there is a great woman whispering in his ear.

having "fun" is important but it isnt everything. everything that happened during the 60s occurred because it needed to and i am not denying its intrinsic value, what i am saying is that the zealous energy that fueled it eventually undermined the whole movement. it was taken too far essentially. they didnt stop to think where they were headed with this beautiful movement, regroup, collect their thoughts and ideas, establish some sort of platform and progressively take the future head on. timothy leary, perfect example. amazing man dont get me wrong, but in the end the muthafucka lost his mind. but i suppose he is the extreme version. same thing happened to the rave and hip hop generation of the 90s. as for sexual freedom, it was liberating for them to express themselves without boundaries absolutely and i personally advocate that seeing how i am a freak. BUT!! once again it was taken too far, diluted with sex fiends who knew no moderation and became a cess pool of the depraved. i dont believe they found "love" at all, what it was for the majority was an excuse to get fucked up and have meaningless sex. i suppose many people do not have a problem with this and kudos to them but on a personal level i take into consideration the consequences of getting "stinkfisted". i dont want to burn out. "i rather be poor, wise and happy." that i think is selfish, an escapism. what i am trying to explain is that what SHOULD have happened is these alternative thinkers should have come back from their "trips" and influence the society that ultimately made it possible for them to explore what they needed to. without the oppression there would not be the co-creative drive to free yourself. id rather live comfortably, with a sense of responsibility, wise, legitimately happy, unmoved, proud and strong in the face of mediocrity. "behind every man there is a woman whispering in his ear" this is what is supposed to be happening but unfortunately all i see is this woman shaking her tits and ass in the face of a greedy pig. at the end, i dont really give a fuck about what anybody does, i just have a voice that needs to be expressed as does everyone. whatever makes you happy.
