I am involved with certain others in Sierra Paths
Temple, a mystery school in and for the Sierra
Nevada. The Temple has libraries featuring a variety of alternative
philosophies and metaphysical subjects. We can provide coaching and
mentoring on issues of personal development, independence from the influences
of cults, including the drug culture. At times we conduct workshops
on personal skills and development, including computer skills.
Watch here for updated information on upcoming workshops.
The Temple is
associated with certain other mystery schools, such as Pathways
Institute, and with offshoots of past
mystery schools such as the Order of the Golden Dawn: the Hermetic
Order of the Morning Star, and the Hermetic
Order of the Golden Dawn.
Within and without these mystery schools I have been involved in a debate
about what God is. Different schools have said different things.
I have found
a number of people into consciousness and energetics hanging out onShirley
MacLaine's website, so I often hang out there where I can help those
who are asking for it, and continue learning all the while.
I am working with young people, wherever
they are, who are standing in solidarity behind the Post Pessimists,a
movement of young people in the Balkans with the vision of creating ethnic
equality and non-violence in the region in their lifetime. They are saying
NO to the long-established practice of passing rage from one generation
to the next.
Five years ago a number of Kosovar
high school students were brought to the United States under the Kosovo Refugee
Student Scholarship Project. The leader of this group had become famous under the
name of 'Adona' as a source of e-mail information to Americans during the Kosovo-
Serbian war, but her real name is Kujtesa Bejtullahu. She has this year (2004)
graduated from Stanford, and has been active in many
youth groups in Kosovo, in America and elsewhere.
I am involved with the Committee for
Human Rights, who are concerned with state hospitals and board-and-care
homes in the California mental health system who are failing to move those
patients/clients who are eligible and able to move to higher up in the
system or out of it into independent living, in order just to keep their
rooms and beds full and their profits high. Clients in these facilities
are intimidated to believe they cannot function when in fact they can.
Needless
to say we are interested in reports of similar situations in other states
and countries. Check out NAMI,
National Association of Mental Illness, and check back here for new information
on the Committee for Human Rights.
Last year my wife Ann Marie was diagnosed with
cancer, and we have become involved with
alternative cancer therapy at the Oasis
of Hope Hospital in Tijuana.
Alternative cancer therapy is not for everyone. For one thing, they have a
completely different theory of what cancer is. And then, there is the cost
- generally American medical insurance does not cover it. Still, I recommend
that anyone diagnosed with cancer, or who has a loved one so diagnosed,
check it out to see if it is right for
you.
Ever since I heard that Jose Padilla was imprisoned
without rights of an accused, as an 'enemy combatant', I have become more and more
concerned about the way that international corporations, who owe no allegiance to
America or to any other country, have suborned all branches of the government and
hold Congress enthralled. Check out
Michael Ruppert's book Crossing the Rubicon and other writings. He
tells and documents the truth about
9-11, the CIA's drug running, and the corporations' laundering of drug and
insider trading money. It is these international corporations that are the
true enemy combatants. His books are available on Amazon and on Thrift Books.

information about 9/11 and where we can go from here.
One of my passions being bluegrass music, I am happy to announce
that Dishnet, thanks to their affiliation with
Sirius, now has a bluegrass channel! Check out channel 6065 on Dishnet!
