Don’t get me wrong I love a great mind, I love a bipolar,
and I know one when I see one. The man can surely talk as if he was vaccinated with a
gramophone needle for sure and his 78 RPM could certainly be tuned down to 33.
Anyway he talks about an awful lot and no one could really
put up with his manic state for too long but this editing video about transcendental
meditation and yoga is dizzying to say the least, not to mention the annoying
new age music in the background.
Why O Why can’t we just listen to words?
Why
do we have to add editing music like if life was a movie and we all needed a
soundtrack behind every move and word?
Anyway this “new” oriental thing is not new at all and like
always people rally behind celebrities’ fad. Remember the Beatles and Maharishi
Mahesh Yogi and what a fraud it all was?
Nothing new under the sun and like Paul Simon says we hear
what we want to hear and disregard the rest.
Yoga and meditation fans will USE Russell Brand to support their twist
too.
Some of us want to use some of us
want to be abused blah blah blah.
Russell could never convince anyone for long anyway as manic
is too high to follow for most and too convoluted to keep up with. I should
know.
The thing about oriental also is that they rarely present us
with the full context of old strange beliefs in elephant gods and blue Krishna
lying and the million strange legends we are unfamiliar with which are just as
senseless and irrational as our western legends of water into wine and
resurrections and what not.
Try to study the Upanishads for a while and let me know.
I
have mentioned this many a times but that is basically it.
Russell is cute and
all and different and let us all be
different but then again let us all be
aware too, aware that we cannot know and that we are apes, a form of life like
any others that knows nothing at all about life except that we are alive for a
very short time.
End of a short story before I turn into Russell Brand
myself! J
