I’m PISSED OFF that you aren’t opening my emails!

Friday, June 11th, 2010

And I`m raw, humbled, Alive and Fired up from within…

Dearest Friend,

I wrote on Facebook the other day…

“Hey! What’s it going to take for you to read my emails
from WarriorSage.com? I’m pissed off that so few are opening
my emails as I’ve just launched the best and biggest way for
folks to grow and expand forever their wealth, sex, relationships
and fulfillment (beyond the workshop “high”) Help!”

I was quite moved and awed by the 150 or more (and continues to
grow) comments that keep coming in from the thread that was
started. You can read it here to catch up if you`d like, it’s
very real,uncensored and bites (me biting and getting bit ;-)
at times…..
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/profile.php?id=539997811&v=wall&story_fbid=123482094357597

From this exchange it became very clear for me that I’ve been
relying on too much marketing advice from the experts (God bless
their soul for helping with their craft) yet something essential
was missing.

I couldn’t put my finger on it yet now after my FB exchange, I
have a dawning clarity I wish to share please and a confession…

For over a decade my organization WarriorSage has been very
cutting edge and edgy to boot.

My popularity, reputation and fan base was birthed by literally
jumping on folks out of nowhere, attacking them, insulting them
horribly and then choking them to the brink of passing out and
that was just the beginning (Yes I`m a lot crazy — with a plan
though.)

This ”Predicament” piece, using martial arts self preservation
practices to invoke a strength of being that never collapses
even under the worst duress has served and continues to serve
many thousands around the world.

It`s surprises me that every now and then, I still hear from
folks who says it has saved their lives as well as their
family`s – this is a great reward for me.

My out there brashness and willingness to take anyone to their
core “Source” has been my gift and somewhere along the line I
let that shout of being become softened and diluted by taking
on the latest marketing models in the attempt to serve so many
more to the real “Source” that lives within.

The Facebook thread and all the loving fans, supporters (and
detractors ;-) ),have somehow shaken me from a sort of slumber
and now I`m dropping all the good advice and will simple shoot
from my hip/heart/soul/being/craziness or whatever moves my
mission to serve Love and Freedom into Being for many, many
more than ever before.

If you have been bored, numbed, annoyed or have not found value
in my emails, I humbly apologize.

Now I will simply be Raw, authentic and unkempt with my email
communications (as well as everything else) and aim to win your
trust, respect and jaw dropping interest back.

If I already have your trust and respect, I may try to shake
that loose too! ha ;-)

One of the threads from Cindy (one of my students and supporters)
said “more Heart, less hype” -OK! dammit- I surrender and will
deliver – you have my word.

Another confession is that I`ve been listening also too much
to what people ARE saying and asking for(based on marketing
wisdom) and as a leader, listening too much is also out of
my integrity.

My gift is that I can see where good folks hold back and are
shrinking from their life`s purpose and apathetic, too broken
down, too mired in superficial shit or too tired and distracted
to even think of living more Alive than they are…

My gift is to see other`s gifts and to teach them how to
unearth, hone and bring their gifts to their community. I do
that through various ways, mostly unconventional and darn right
out there at times.

So here I am, take it or leave it, upset at me or not I`m going
to poke, prod, stir, shake up or sooth, embrace, accept where I
see/feel fit(unwarranted, deluded, righteous, misguided or Divinely
Inspired). It`s what I have to give.

OK let’s start this out with a bang!

I invite you to send me any questions/challenges/shit you have
about your life and I`m going to tell you what I think for you
to Get A Life!

I`ll post your questions or whatever you send and my reply
(written or video) on my blog  for all to see-thats your risk to
expose your stuff (you can keep it anonymous if you want or
more real by sharing your name outright -whatever works). 
Let’s hold nothing back-lets be real-wild at
times,controversial is cool too, and whatever juices us up to
refill “Source”. Go ahead and send them to
okdealwiththis@warriorsage.com

Now I’ve started a brand new incarnation called The Get A Life
Company here is a bit from the Facebook thread I wrote about it…

“Oh by the way “The Get A Life Company” is meant to be a taunt
and something funny. I’m realizing now after releasing the new
name, that some don’t find it funny and amusing. Great, for me
it shows that there is way too much seriousness in our personal
growth worlds. Hey GET A LIFE! Come on smile, cut loose a little
will ya?;-)

At the end of the day we all pass away- so what are you waiting
for to get a Life?

It’s also a pun- you need to Give A Life to Get A Life!

Contrarian branding certainly causes the pot to stir eh? Anyways
I’m more committed now than ever to serve whomever is drawn to
my style of offerings into Love and Freedom that continues to
expand beyond workshops.

More on The Get A Life Company coming down the pipeline- I feel
as always as a ward of this new organization and “it” is
mentoring me as too how it wishes to unfold day by day as it
is “Sourced” in the great Mystery.  To read about what’s
happening so far go to
www.warriorsage.com/getstarted

Suzanne and I are touring in 6 cities and I invite you to see
and feel this new incarnation…details here…
www.warriorsage.com/getstarted/tourflyer.pdf

The Get A Life Company`s number one intention is to make a
huge breakthrough in your implementation of  teachings/practices
/distictions to make one`s life be a total and full reflection
of what you really want in Life. Be that sexually, all relations,
personal wealth, Aliveness, contribution or plain having a great
time with great people.

For me it is a truly remarkable, no brainer for creating an
environment where expansion, joy, love, abundance, freedom and
truth are not just marketing buzz words or workshop highs,
but a way of life- that’s also cool, hip and super duper creative
fun too!

I want to know what it takes to make it a no-brainer for you
too!

Feel free to share anything about this directly to me at
okdealwiththis@warriorsage.com

Big Gratitude for hearing me and getting stirred… It`s going
to be a fun ride!

Paranormal Powers,Truth and taking Non Dual-Responsibility(huh?)

Paranormal Powers, Truth and taking Non Dual-Responsibility (huh?)

I’ve been thinking about something close to my profession or at least lingers around it lots. And that’s paranormal powers, personality typing including reading people, astrology and other ways to find an overall classification for trying to understand us all (including self).

Some folks claim I have “reading” abilities and I guess it looks that way when you are untrained, under practiced in self observation and self confession and darn right wanting solutions and answers to your questions and feel insecure in dealing with finding the answers yourself.

This may seem as an attack on such things, yet I feel Truth is un-attackable so what’s the big worry anyways.

I’ve looked into many ways of understanding our personalities including eneagram, astrology, palm reading, face reading, meridian analysis, card readings of all kinds, personality typing, chinese astrology, western and Indian Vedic astrology and the list goes on….

I’ll cut to the chase…..it’s all hogwash.

We are all the same in so many ways.

We are fearful of this sameness and something inside wants to be “unique” and unclassifiable and that impulse to “show or display” our uniqueness actually undermines our true uniqueness and warps our personalities to find a fit with it’s surrounding personalities (or the opposite in the sense of rebellion).

We do this warping to fit in as we are mammals and do better fitting in(somewhere at least, even if it’s with fellow rebels) rather than going solo.

So in short our personalities are basically the same on so many levels and we do know it regardless of owning that knowing.

Thus my assertion is that any of these typing methods from “occult” to “scientific” are matchable to anyone from anywhere and regardless of what “sign” we read about or are told about at parties (“Libra….well let me tell you about Libra….”).

Regardless of what ‘Sign” your birthday corresponds to, you have the qualities of each and every astrological sign in you, thus the uncanny at times feeling of “this reading is so accurate.”

We have the human range of experience within us each thus regardless of the sign, you have those signs, tendencies, blind spots and gifts.

I believe auspicious days are the ones where we do some good work, give our gifts and are earned by self effort and surrender.

Listen to me please, I would love to have accurate sign posts to help guide my journey though life and deal better with life’s curves, yet I also want to live in what is True and real, even if it costs me my hopeful superstitions, externalizations of responsibility and “fill in the blanks (with my desires please)” by invisible forces.

Ok now if you like entertainment that’s great and a sense of the mystical hand behind things but after almost 30 years on the spiritual circuit, I’ve come to the current conclusion that we are it- yes we- and it’s my own responsibility to carve life out how I can, the best I can and learn along the way.

For me True Spiritual experiences are ones that reveal Truth and many times that truth erodes something that you thought was real and now is falling away, sometimes crashing away.

Truth doesn’t give and mostly takes away.

It’s what left when we let it take away all notions we have about anything-including my own current notions above I might add ;-)

Can we live without portents and visions from simple to extraordinary(brought on by visionary plants.

I had a “seer” friend who had a vision of me that he really want to share with me out of his love and that vision saw me in challenging times. His intent was good yet what was funny was his whole (extensive) vision was all based on some info he had about me which was inaccurate and not real. He had created a whole vision based on unreal facts and jumbled communications. The vision all of a sudden was unreal as it was false- based on false assumptions, presumption, inaccurate knowledge and emotional care for me- so even love itself can be dangerous when we think our powers of seeing are real (or anybody else’s occult powers).

Let’s get real and live from the current common sense, experience and courage we already have. My experience is we’ll get much further ahead on the spiritual path by dropping hopeful pointers for honest revelation and resolute actions.

If in the NonDual traditions which assert there is no self, no doer, no time space and we are but apparitions appearing as individual consciousness, and if you (or myself) aren’t experiencing this yourself now then I’ll keep going ahead and take responsibility for this appearing self-now.

Check out Derren Brown`s  video from a great UK Show he has…

He is a favorite Truth seeker/Entertainer of mine in his own way and I’m sure you’ll be amazed.
