Half A World Away

Universal Mind Moods YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIVo-cGOp0q5gRxlKwsmHjw

Hello, I’m James, content creator for “Universal Mind Moods”. I fell in love with a small metaphysical book titled “Three Magic Words” in 1984. At the end of each of the 12 chapters there is a short meditation. Just for fun I reproduced these meditations in audio form for my own use. However, they eventually lead to me creating videos for a YouTube channel because I wanted to share these unique, entertaining, sometimes funny, and very effective works of art.

They are effective mainly because of the metaphysical writings of U.S. Andersen. However, I did study subliminal, hypnotic, and meditation techniques to apply in an amateurish attempt to incorporate them into the deliveries of these 12 meditations. The 12 chapters of this wonderful book are as follows:

Chapter 1 – The Lock (Overcoming Our Buried Pain Remembrances)
Chapter 2 – Illusion (Evil – The Great Illusion)
Chapter 3 – Mind (Understanding Conscious Mind and Universal Subconscious Mind)
Chapter 4 – Form (How All Things Proceed from Universal Subconscious Mind)
Chapter 5 – Intuition (Using the Invisible Power)
Chapter 6 – Faith (Moving Universal Subconscious Mind to Creation)
Chapter 7 – Attraction (Discovering the Center of Consciousness)
Chapter 8 – Love (Realizing Absolute Love as the Motivating Power of Life)
Chapter 9 – Success (Directing the Subconscious for Prosperity and Achievement)
Chapter 10 – Health (Using the Perfection of Subconscious for Perfection of Body)
Chapter 11 – Immortality (Removing the Evil from Eternity)
Chapter 12 – The Key (Unlocking the Secret of Self)

I suggest you read this short book of 169 pages for a better understanding of these magic meditations. However, this is not necessary. If you let the meditations flow with headphones and a nonjudgmental attitude, over time they will bring you to a new level of consciousness.

This entire series of the twelve short meditations from Three Magic Words are easy, and effective meditations for active people who want to meditate but feel they cannot. It could be not enough time, or they find it too difficult to sit and be quiet, and/or they find it too hard to slow down their thoughts.

These meditations are approximately 10 minutes in length and are unique, inspiring, and effective. They are formatted to take our minds off daily mundane and trying situations and bring us to the realization that we are a manifestation of our minds through our belief systems.

This series is made to be quick, and easy meditations which are remarkably interesting, unique, poetic, and effective meditations that are 300 to 400 words. They are from U.S. Andersen’s most popular book which is renowned by the metaphysical community. They are designed to be quick, easy, and of course effective meditations for active people.

In Three Magic Words, U.S. Andersen makes the argument that "the physical world is derived from the mental". He argues that "a sustained mental image, if backed by faith will become reality". U.S. Andersen argued that "it is possible to prove this theory by conducting a few mental experiments, aided by means of meditation. After running these experiments, with complete faith in the outcome, it becomes obvious, at least on a personal level, that there is a relationship between thought and physical reality".

U.S. Andersen was a successful self-help and short story author in the 1950’s, 60’s, and 70’s. Once a renowned NFL football player, he had several careers including running an advertising agency, wild catting for oil, logging at the Columbia Sawmill, and was also a World War II veteran as a gunnery officer on a destroyer warship.

U.S. Andersen: A Short Bio with Music

Email chimes, her paper rejected,
Doubt whispers, on path selected.
"Am I good enough?" her heart oppressed,
By impostor's syndrome, her confidence suppressed.

In the echoes of doubt, she finds her voice,
Rising strong, she makes her choice.
In the echoes of doubt, she stands firm,
With every fall, she lives, she learns.

Letters slide, tenure denied, dreams now dejected,
Futures blurred, on roads once projected.
"Have I done enough?" his spirit contested,
By impostor's syndrome, his hopes oppressed.

In the echoes of doubt, he finds his voice,
Rising strong, he makes his choice.
In the echoes of doubt, he stands firm,
With every fall, he lives, he learns.

Surrounded by brilliance, in the academic sea,
"Are they better than us?" whispers insecurity.
Each publication, each award they secure,
Deepens the doubt we try to endure.

In the echoes of doubt, we find our voice,
Rising strong, we make our choice.
In the echoes of doubt, we stand firm,
With every fall, we live, we learn.

"Do I really deserve to be here?"
"How did I get this far?"
"Am I good enough?"
"Am I smart enough?"
"Am I brave enough?"
"How long can I keep this up?"
"Why do I feel like a fraud?"

You're not alone, we've all been there,
Plagued by doubts, consumed by fear.
Welcome to the club, where we all belong,
You are good enough, you are strong.

Written during a time of personal reflection, "Echoes of Doubt" is more than just a melody—it's a journey from self-doubt to self-discovery. We all have those moments of questioning our worth, our achievements, and our place in the world. This song is for everyone who's ever felt like they weren't enough, and a celebration of the strength it takes to rise above these feelings.

OMNI MAN!! [METAL THEME]

Fear for disconnection. We stare in so much light today that we go blind.
I keep my connections to victims of the times. We see us in the video calls on Zoom or FaceTime,

Information overload. Disconnected from the world or from bodyparts. Psychriatic diseases by multi channeling. But AI will heal us.

White Room by Beats Working (John Hardman)

This is my new, and possibly final, album. I consider it the best work I've ever done and if I never make another album I would be happy to say that it all ended on this particular note.

Though I obviously have my own distinct sound and musical identity, I would say that major inspirations during my recording of this album would be David Bowie's Blackstar, Peter Gabriel's UP and Kate Bush's Ariel...at least in terms of all of those albums being eclectic studies in contrast and juxtaposition. Like those albums, each song has its own set of feelings and meanings and imagery...and I only hope that this album hits anywhere NEAR the level of artistry of those works. My goal is always to take the listener on a journey through dynamic peaks and valleys and leave them feeling well-traveled by the end of the experience. I want the experience to be impacting on deep emotional, intellectual and spiritual levels, and not just be aural wallpaper to serve as a mere backdrop.

I hope I have accomplished that goal, and I hope that people will take the time to actually LISTEN to this album...but that DOES take a certain level of commitment and an actual interest in music as art. If you have that, you may find this work gratifying. Many have said that it takes a couple listens to “get” what I do...and you may find that to be true as well.

I have made this album available on YouTube as a full album video with lyrics for free listening, as a free download on Noisetrade (link in comment below), and as a paid download on Bandcamp (also in comment below). I had planned on making some videos for some of these songs and to roll it out in a more commercial way, but given the times it seems wrong to me to do so. Above all else, I would would like my work to be heard and remembered. If something happens to me, I would like to know that people listened to and enjoyed my work on some level.

MUSIC FOR THE THINKING FEW.

(NOTE: I only repost songs I like or show some level of competence or promise...and they usually don't involve an 808, misogyny, Autotune or singing off key over a prerecorded track...and at my age I'm FAR more interested in quality connections with listeners than going "viral". ALSO: mostly an aging rock/folk/prog/indie guy...can't really judge or really relate to Hip-Hop, Auto-Tune and other more modern styles...sorry.)

John Ludi is a musician/singer-songwriter/cultural relic with a diverse and "arty" array of influences and lyrical interests who was "Indie" before the term even existed. Working outside of the music industry by choice has given Ludi the ability to release songs of a level of lyrical depth that are anathema to the current culture.  Ludi lives off-grid in a yurt in the woods of WI and finds the materialistic priorities of our civilization incredibly wrong and destructive.
