THE DOORS OF PERCEPTION CHRONOLOGY

1.William Blake
2.Aldous Huxley
3.The Doors

'If the doors of perception were cleansed, every thing would appear to man as it is: infinite.'
(WILLIAM BLAKE)

'Most visualizers are transformed by mescalin into visionaries. Some of them--and they are Perhaps more numerous than is generally supposed--require no transformation; they are visionaries all the time. The mental species to which Blake belonged is fairly widely distributed even in the urban-industrial societies of the present day. The poet-artist's uniqueness does not consist in the fact that (to quote from his Descriptive Catalogue) he actually saw those wonderful originals called in the Sacred Scriptures the Cherubim.'
(The Doors of Perception, by ALDOUS HUXLEY)

BETWEEN THE CAPITALISM AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA


When Nietzsche asserted that 'God is dead", the capitalism took his torch and went ahead. From then on, the golden calf became the only God we could worship. However, nobody, not even the most conspicuous members of that congregation, could understand his nature totally. This is why Madoff and others as mean as him misunderstood the Divine Message and this is why mankind is now between the capitalism and the deep blue sea.

So brothers, why don't we 'sail on summer breeze and skip over the ocean like a stone'?
