YOU ARE NOW TUNED INTO PACAL VOTAN AKA UNIVERSAL BALANCE. I AM ONE WITH THE UNIVERSAL PULSE THAT WE ALL SHARE, THAT ALL LIVING THINGS SHARE, THIS IS THE SAME PULSE OF THE CREATOR. I TRY MY HARDEST TO KEEP MY MUSIC IN TUNE WITH THIS PULSE,HOPING YOU WILL TAP INTO IT'S FREQUENCY. WE ARE ALL ONE LIFE FORCE BUT THIS MATERIALISTIC WORLD OF THE FLESH WILL NOT LET US RECOGNIZE THIS TRUTH. WE ARE CONNECTED WITH THE SUN, MOON AND STARS,THE EARTH AND THE UNIVERSE JUST AS MUCH AS WE ARE CONNECTED WITH EACH OTHER. IN MY HOPES TO MAKE THIS TRUTH MORE CLEAR TO HUMANITY. I WANT TO GIVE THEM AN EASY WAY TO UNDERSTAND, AND WHAT BETTER WAY THEN THROUGH THE ARTS. THE MOVEMENT ONCE KNOWN AS THE M.OVEMENT O.F B.ROTHERHOOD IS NOW KNOWN AS THE INDIGO MOVEMENT.PEOPLE BORN FROM LATE 70'S ON ARE INDIGO CHILDREN TO EXPLAIN THIS FURTHER READ THIS: What the North American researcher Nancy Ann Tappe said about the children that are being born currently is very important. She calls the children of the New Millennium the “Indigo Children", “Blue Children", or “Children of Light". She called them like this because of the characteristic indigo blue color of their electromagnetic field; this phenomenon can be captured by using a Kirlian camera. Since 1995, the number of births of children with these qualities has been increasing. This researcher also says that the Mayans had already predicted this in one of their prophecies. Generally, the Indigo Children are more intelligent than the normal children, they learn faster, they don't feel afraid or discouraged by adults, they know what they want and fight to get it. Some people name the Indigo Children, The Technologists of the human race because they have the capacity to manage their two cerebral hemispheres simultaneously. Nancy Ann also sorted these children in four categories, the “Humanist Children", the “Conceptual Children", the “Artist Children", and the “Inter-dimensional Children"; they are the humanity's hope since they bring with them new philosophies that will be good to harmonize the humanity. I want to give thanks to the sister Carolina Hehenkamp for her first book she gave me entitled “Das Indigo Phänomen” that is about these New Children. ("Das Indigo Phänomen" is translated in 8 languages). IN ESSENCE IT IS A MOVEMENT OF THE ARTS, A RENISSANCE, A NETWORK OF CONCIOUS ARTISTS(DESPITE WHAT GENRE OR MEDIUM) STANDING TOGETHER AS ONE TO RAISE THE AWARNESS OF ALL IN HUMANITY. FROM DIRECTORS TO MC'S, FROM VOCALISTS TO DANCERS,FROM GRAFFITI ARTISTS AND PAINTIST'S TO ACTORS. WE HAVE THE GIFT OF EXPRESSION BUT IT SEEMS LIKE MOST IN OUR CRAFTS ARE ONLY IN IT FOR THEIR OWN BENIFIT. WE AS ARTISTS HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THE WORLD AROUND US SO WE MUST. THEY USE ENTERTAINMENT TO BRAINWASH AND CONTROL. SO WE MUST USE THESE REPTILES OWN WEAPON AGAINST THEM. THE TIME IS COMING TO WERE WE MUST JOIN HANDS OR IT WILL BE TOO LATE. WE MUST FIGHT!!!!. ANYONE WHO IS INTRESTED IN MAKING THIS MOVEMENT A REALITY LETS START NOW GET AT ME ASAP. I WILL BE SELECTIVE IN WHO THE MOVERS AND SHAKERS ARE GONNA BE WITHIN THIS MOVEMENT BECAUSE I REFUSE TO BE INFILTRATED BY ANY INFIDELS. KNOW THAT THIS IS ALL SAID AND DONE ENJOY THE MUSIC ON THE PAGE. P.S. I'AM ALWAYS UP FOR COLLABS SO GET AT ME WHETHER PRODUCER OR EMCEE, I AM EVEN WILLING TO COLLAB WITH MUSICIANS OF OTHER GENRES I AM VERY OPEN MINDED.P.S.S I HAVE BEEN THROUGH MANY HARD SHIPS IN LIFE SUCH AS INCARCERATION, DRUG ADDICTION, HOMELESSNESS, LOSS AND IT HAS BROUGHT ME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE PAST IS ALREADY DONE AND THAT ARE DUTY IS TO LEARN FROM THE PAST, AND MAKE THE FUTURE A BETTER MORE POSITIVE TIME FOR YOURSELF AND THE WHOLE OF EXSISTENCE. HUMANS ARE CAPABABLE OF TWO EMOTIONS AND THAT IS FEAR AND LOVE. ALL OTHER TRAITS STEM FROM THESE TO EMOTIONS. FEAR SEEMS TO BE THE CONTROLLING FACTOR IN THESE DAYS AND TIMES AND THIS IS WHAT FUELS ALL DIVISION, HATE, PRIDE, ENVY AND ALL OTHER VICES. A PERSON LIVING IN FEAR IS NOT CAPABLE OF EVERYTHING LIFE HAS TO OFFER THEM. ONLY A PERSON LIVING IN THE EMOTION OF LOVE IS OPEN TO ALL THE TRUTHS IN THIS UNIVERSE, AND WE MUST COME TO GRIPS WITH THIS CONCEPT OR ALL OF EXSISTENCE WILL CONTINUE ON THIS UNBALANCED, CHAOTIC PATH IT IS CURRENTLY ON. WE MUST NOT FEAR THE DARK SIDE OF EXSISTENCE THAT HAS MOST PEOPLE INSLAVED AND INCARCERATED WITHIN THEIR FEARS, ONCE WE LEARN TO LOVE OURSELVES AND ALL OTHERS WITHIN EXSISTENCE THIS DEMONIC FORCE WILL LOSE IT'S GRIP AND HOLD ON US. WE CANNOT ERADICATE THIS DARK ELEMENT BECAUSE WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT IT IS A PART OF BALANCE, ALL WE CAN DO IS LEARN TO CONTROL IT AND LET IT NOT CONTROL US. WE MUST LOOK THESE SNAKES IN THE EYE AND SAY WE FEAR YOU NO MORE AND THEY WILL HAVE NO CHOICE BUT RETREAT. I'LL STOP HERE FOR I THINK I HAVE SAID ENOUGH. ENJOY THE CONCIOUS VIBES ON THIS PAGE, PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Partially Examined Life is a philosophy podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy. You don't have to know any philosophy, or even to have read the text we're talking about to (mostly) follow and (hopefully) enjoy the discussion.
