Yes, the ship of state is soon to sail, and we’re the anchor they’ll cast off when they leave port. What I mean is, you’d better get your marketing together TODAY, or lose the chance forever. This day will last a thousand years — if you want it to (few want it to).
My little “Bandit” VIRTUAL SAILBOAT is already sailing around the Ashram and has been operating in these waters for several years now — I’m working on a water race course for sailors with Bandits. Believe it, the Bandit is the only sailboat worth owning in Second Life.
I’d like to introduce the idea of Particle Linkage. Look, you can get a Godd Particle from Uncle Claude, put it on your Ashram Avatar and you’re linked up. See? Continue reading →
You heard me, take it and stuff it. What that means is, create a living virtual world and stuff it into a wearable item, such as a pendant, keychain or wallet card, then carry it around with you — it’s working all of theĀ time.
You can stuff absolutely anything in there in virtual world format — this means that you can create not only objects, but action cycles and events, and have them continuously perform throughout the day and night.
Your Avatar is always in there, and you’re always in contact with it. The results of your virtual world spill over into the actual world in which you currently have your habitation — you know — where you live.
So I’ve created software which includes not only the TEXT and COMPLETE COLOR GRAPHICS of the ABD and related books and talks and videos, but within that system you’ll be able to actually walk through the Bardos day by day, getting my readings of the appropriate passages for those regions.

I am a Shutdown Victim. I’m not a government worker, but I am a Shutdown Victim, and I’ll be only too happy to explain to you in detail how come I’m in this condition:
The First Vibration of the Ripple Effect came from the furloughed government workers, into the marketplace in a variety of ways, some directly — as in they didn’t buy goods this month because they don’t have the ready cash — and some indirectly, as in screwing up the market and buying sentiment of the consumer class, which is us.
Then we got the Second Vibration — the non-furloughed workers started freaking out because they were “Risking their lives and not getting paid for it”.
Hell, that describes my job in a nutshell. I never get paid for my work, but I don’t really have to get paid — I have an endless supply of Shakti-Pat, and that translates into money, in my world.
Of course, if you’re not living in the Western Realm, and you find yourself in a government job, which means these days, “working and not getting paid for it”, you still have to come up with money for food, gas, parking, migraine headache remedy, tips, spare change and more, not to mention the tons of alcoholic drinks you’ll need to toss down while at work, in order to be able to take the crap without actually snapping the boss’s head right off.
That’s right, a new beginning, and that’s what it’s going to take to get through this next year’s Work Intensives, Workshops and Clinics.
We’ll be exploring a whole new spiritual technology.
First on the list is the Guardian Angel Amulet, the most popular ammy I’ve ever produced. It is simply amazing, but you’ll have to read the testimonials for yourself!
Secondly, I’ve made a few Guardian Angel Pendants, Earring Sets, Bracelets, Rings and other items of daily use — they’ll do well as a reseller item, or a premium for one of your clients when they make a major purchase or commission, or you might think of other uses for these delightful products of my studio workshop.
All the items mentioned here were made by me, generally to demonstrate the techniques, which are available just for the asking. I will teach anyone who wants to learn, like it says in the song. Continue reading →
What’s new??? Well, I’ve just spent the entire night making a BUNCH of SILVER WALKING LIBERTY HALF DOLLAR QUATRAIN MEDALLIONS, that’s what’s new today.
I’m ignoring the media circus in Washington for the moment, but I’ll be back with the latest flash in a minute or two — it’ll knock your socks off, if you’re a tenderfoot in the political/business arena.
I’ve written a few more FOLK PROTEST SONGS which are on Barbara’s desk for entry into my collection of Trump Roasts — get it? Rump Roast, Trump Roast? Haw, haw, haw, this guy’s a barrel of laughs.
Frankly, from my perspective, I’m indifferent to whether or not he sets off a nuclear conflagration. I get paid no matter what happens, and I collect my dollar bet once the whole planet blows up real good.
Not my problem, and certainly nobody else’s, either. We have other planets, we’ll get over it. The locals, however, tend to go down with the ship. Continue reading →

This Dinosaur Skull is my “take” on T-Rex, but it could just as easily be read as a super closeup of a brontosaurus feeding on the top of a tree — it’s all in the label, in this case, but you could get very good at reducing the elements of a meat-eater predator as opposed to a leaf or branch browser.
Of course, ANY animal will work here, alive or dead, currently in stock or extinct.
You’ll want to sharpen your skills at shapes. Note that the teeth are long and sharp, and very exaggerated, as are the double-circled eyes, bulging out from the top of the skull.
I like to sign these opposite the majority of the “weight”, so in this case, I signed it on the eastern side of the rim, meaning the right side of the image. Continue reading →
Before I discuss the Healing Mandala, I’d like to point out that, if you’re planning on entering the spiritual game-field of metal embossing sigils, talismans, pendants, rings, pins, headbands, belts, bolo ties and pocket medallions, you will definitely appreciate knowing the following little factoid:
The 24k solid gold disk at 1.4 grams — which is the ideal weight for the small piece, to allow a reasonable retail price-point — when hammered out with a bit of body still left on it, won’t typically fit on the pin-vise without serious compensation and special mountings.
It’s a total pain in the bazonga to try to carve, even if you do manage somehow to put it into a metal harness, because the retaining pins will block your engraving tool and your fingers, making it nearly impossible to complete any cut into the top surface.
However, a 24k solid gold FOIL disk, which is rolled out, not hammered out, can be easily embossed without mounting on a vise — no vise needed for the foil, and the foil could well be an aluminum craft foil, or solid gold foil. Use your fingers to hold onto it.
Your embossing tool can be controlled with one hand, while the engraving tool simply can’t be. You need your other hand to stop the forward movement of the tool, and to guide it onto the target curve or line or gouge.
Funny thing is, once the gold foil or heavier gold slab is inside the bezel and the protective quartz-glass crystals are in place, you can’t tell whether it’s foil or a thicker beaten-out gold disk. Unless you take the locket apart, the foil gold and the heavier “token” weight gold disk, when viewed inside the locket, look exactly the same.Continue reading →
The 24k solid gold medallions are the most powerful CONTACT coins in the world. There is no metal exactly like gold, and gold is the key to opening and passing through dimensional portals.
Gold has “reach”. It “continues” in various dimensions, notably the Six Nirvanic Worlds, which cannot be reached with other metals. Gold is always gold. It never changes, and it has its own “constant”, which will someday be important to scientists. You can carve a simple visual “bumpy” message into PURE gold, and it can be read in the Higher Planes.
Gold Tokens can be made from scratch. They need not be altered coins and in fact, I don’t recommend altering gold coins at all. I work on a flat, hammered planchette or disk, fairly thin, at about 13mm in diameter, to fit into the 14k gold “U.S. $1 Gold Piece” Locket, which retails out at about $450-$650, depending on the artwork.
I wholesale those out at $112.50 apiece, which barely accommodates the cost of the metal and, in fact, at an art or crafts fair, I can make about $7,500 an hour just putting beads on strings and making someone’s name on a copper bracelet, but you couldn’t pay me enough to actually do that — I’m just making a point here about labor and art and what the art is worth.
I think the artwork that I engrave and etch into every single one of my little gold plaques is worth a whole lot more than fifty bucks, but I’m willing to let YOU take the profit. If you want to use some of your profit to assist the Sangha, it’s entirely up to you.
Those gold lockets should, and can, and DO, sell for hundreds of bucks, not because it’s gold, or because it’s magic or quantum, but because it’s a WORK OF ART by an actual working world-class listed American Official White House and IAJE Artist, not a mass-produced mechanical lump spat out of an all-too-common stamp-out machine somewhere overseas and off-shore, and I never said the word “China”.

Identify yourself as a Blue Blazer Regular with the ORIGINAL Atlantean Sigil — wearing this sigil makes you stand out in a crowd as a former resident of Atlantis, with memory enough intact to remember it and register with the society as such.
What does this actually mean?
When you wear the sigil, it isn’t merely an artsy-craftsy piece of personal ornamentation, although it’s pretty passable as jewelry, especially in pure solid 24k gold, 18k gold and even in 14k it looks good. Atlanteans everywhere will instantly recognize and accept you. Continue reading →
