How To Transfer From Shareaza To Itunes
The Dharma Bums, Jack Kerouac
And I promised I would start a new life.
Vagabundearé with a backpack,
follow the pure path.
Jack Kerouac The Dharma Bums is the bible metaphysics of the hippies. Is the starting point for a new way of living, closer to nature, which sees life as an unpredictable journey that alienates the comfortable security bourgeois so few responses gave the youth of the country of consumption. Kerouac and his friends are pre hippies are the ones who were the rebirth of San Francisco. This book reads like beatnicks lived among endless parties where did poetry readings, improvised like jazz, which was drunk with wine and some marijuana, and stripped to dance around fires rounds. But all was not party, the pre hippies were more daring than the hippies. Kerouac, like a wandering monk in the Far East, almost a beggar, life looks like a bridge, build a house on it.
Long before the Beatles visited the Maharishi, Osho long before visit California, Kerouac, driven by his friend Gary Snyder, Buddhism and discover steps you climb a mountain are constant metaphors to the meeting of the Dharma, the Buddhist wheel of truth that every man can become conscious. It was a spiritual path unknown in the West, a door that opened into a commodified knowledge that we see today in gyms Yoga and visits of the Dalai Lama. Kerouac prophesies a revolution backpacks, thousands and even millions of young people with backpacks and climbing the mountains to pray, all Zen Lunatics who go writing poems that emerge from their heads for no reason and being kind and doing strange things that provide insights of eternal freedom to all the world and all living creatures.
This new way of life required a new way of writing, more spontaneously, without being intellectual games. Kerouac wrote this book in 1958, just eleven days.
Dharma Bums refusing to follow the general demand that they consume production and therefore that you work for the privilege of consuming all that shit you do not really need and that always ends in a garbage can week later.

How Much Is Nano Speed
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Hunter Thompson
Far be it from me to recommend the reader drugs, alcohol, violence and dementia. But I must confess that, without that, I would be nothing. Hunter S.
Thompson
Beatnicks
After came the hippies, living in the Trinity lysergic rock, drugs and sex, were on LSD can buy, in the words of Thompson, Peace and Understanding for three dollars per dose.
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas , the novel on which Terry Gilliam film with Jonny Deep by Thompson and Benicio del Toro as his lawyer, is the least mystical travelogue and more drugs that I have ever read. Even more excessive than the film, this novel puts an end to a generation beatnicks founded by the North lost to hard to get spiritual answers through drugs. Permanent cripples, failed seekers, who never understood the basic old mystic fallacy of the Acid Culture: the desperate assumption that somebody is responsible for supporting the light there at the end of the tunnel.
Thompson and his lawyer set their minds and their environments in a way of stripping the rotten fallacy of the American dream. They destroy everything the materialistic conservatism in North America has worked to transform into a monument. These are the great secularizing of American myths, both capitalist and hippie dream. We were
drug scandalously past, riding a number of flagrant crazy trying to always to the limit ... Not to demonstrate any important sociological principle, even as a conscious mockery: basically a matter of lifestyle, a sense of what was required and even the duty.
If Kerouac is a prophet of hipppies, Thompson is the antichrist of them. A skeptic who ends his days with the violence of a shot in the head.

Can You Change Mw2 To English
The Road to Eleusis, Wasson, Hofmann, Ruck
Initiates must suffer, feel, experience certain emotions and moods, they were not there to learn anything. Aristotle
the Eleusinian
One afternoon in August 1927, in the Catskills Mountains, Valentina Pavlovna Wasson and Gordon walked hand in the middle of a forest, enjoying their honeymoon, when they noticed a side of the trail had many fungi of different shapes, colors and sizes. Valentina, of Russian origin, with affection, tenderness sacral, recognized and collected. Wasson tried to dissuade her, back, get back here! They are poisonous, they hurt. Valentina laughed. Its festive laughter ring forever in my ears. The next day, Wasson first tested fungi. Overwhelmed by the developer experience and stunned by the negative attitude that he had expressed the previous day in front of his wife, both began to investigate the treatment that was given to fungi in England and Russia.
English writers rarely mentioned and when they did was related to unpleasant aspects, offensive, with the putrefaction, decay and death. Russian writers filled their texts with mushrooms, always in a loving context. Wasson divided the world between cultures mycophyllas (mushroom lovers) and mycophobes. After decades of research on what he called the ethnomycology, discovered that thousands of years, fungi were the subject of religious devotion. His research in the popular cultures of the peoples and travel mycophiles experienced with his wife, led him to establish a relationship between fungi and spiritual knowledge.
in 1955 on a trip to Mexico, to confirm the entry of the sixteenth century English friars on the intake of mushrooms by the native, Wasson participated in a ceremony conducted by a shaman, Maria Sabina. White was the first on record who has participated in one of these ceremonies. His intuition was confirmed. The fungi were considered divine beings. And the ritual was looking for open the floodgates to a relationship with the whole as a living being. If the first journey Wasson had related their intake of fungi with a very spiritual experience on the trip to Mexico Wasson knew the relationship of fungi with the spiritual culture of a people. Immediately made the scope: The religious use of mushrooms in Mexico were the answer to the Eleusinian mysteries celebrated in Greece for nearly two thousand years. Ingestion allows one to look more clearly than our mortal eyes, views that are beyond the horizons of this life, travel through time, forward and backward, to enter other planes of existence, even as they say Indians Mexicans know God.
The book is divided into three parts. In the first, Wasson tells the story that led him to relate the mystery of Eleusis with the ingestion of entheogenic substance. The second part is written by the Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann, and it shows that the Greeks may have derived from a fungus growing on wheat and barley, a substance similar to LSD: ergot, which mycologists called Claviceps purpurea.
Part III, professor of Greek ethnobotany, Carl Ruck, try to reconfigure, from an overwhelming number of citations, which are made within the temple at Eleusis. As if revealing a secret that had resisted all the forces of history, shows step by step the mystery jealously guarded Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Pindar, Sophocles, Aristophanes, and all those who traveled to Eleusis.
Each year, were initiated into the mysteries, thousands of people of all classes, emperors and prostitutes, slaves and free men. Only two conditions are required (who spoke Greek and had not committed a murder) to start the preliminary rites that lasted over half a year. Were the lesser mysteries and were held in Athens. Then undertook the pilgrimage to Eleusis, for the first and only time, to see the sacred. It was a 20-kilometer walk began crossing a bridge too narrow for a carriage and take you out to your sides masked men cursed the Pilgrims. Eleusis was a sacred area for its special affinity with the realm of the dead. The procession symbolically passed the border between two worlds: a momentous journey fraught with difficulties . After touring the Sacred Way came to Telesterion , room or initiation of Major Mysteries, where something is seen. That was all I could say about the mysteries, the rest was a secret or simply inexpressible (in the book never sets out the reasons which led the Greeks to keep the secret of the Eleusinian mysteries). The Telesterion was too small to allow a play, and the Greeks could hardly have been deceived by a theatrical trick. also had physical symptoms that accompany the visions: fear and trembling of the limbs, dizziness, nausea and cold sweat. After that ensuing vision.
Research by Ruck led him to conclude that the Greeks knew intoxicants other than alcohol. In fact had no word for alcohol, nor knew distill. As loud as could be obtained by fermentation natural wine was 14 degrees. However, the Greeks used to drink their wine mixed with water. There were so strong that even wines to be drunk without risk to life, be diluted with twenty parts of water for each wine. And yet could produce physical symptoms: insomnia, hallucinations, dizziness, or hilarity. The reason for this is that in ancient wine in almost all primitive peoples, did not contain alcohol as an intoxicant, but usually it was an infusion of plant toxins in liquid wines.
Designed for religious ceremonies, like the mysteries of Eleusis, and later used profanity, entheogenic substances were not alien to Greek culture. A New Paradigm, Christianity, eventually removing these pagan practices. Faith was going to be the exclusive vehicle of mystical experiences. After so revealing
research, stay around a few questions: Was it a revelation that led Eleusinian Plato to conceive of a world of ideas, where everything was perfect, a world of essences that are revealed in opposition to it by imperfect realizations? Is our Western culture, the daughter of Hellenic civilization, the result of a culture unfamiliar with entheogens? Finally a recommendation
Wasson: If you have the slightest doubt do not taste the mushrooms.
