1. SEXY LOVE

From the album: LEXICON © 2008











Words and Music by Alex Wall





We’re not just ordinary

You and I have sexy love

And on this side of morning

We kiss the light, sexy love





Patient girl feels the rush of the world

In the life and the pain

Held down by the chains that bind her heart

She’s the one and she shines like the sun

In her eyes, in her thighs, milky sweet on the tides





She’s watching time go by

She makes me high





We’re not just ordinary

You and I have sexy love

And on this side of morning

We kiss the light, sexy love, etc.





2. THE COST

From the album: LEXICON © 2008











Words and Music by Alex Wall





Pull down the stars around me

If the story comes out right

When summer rises

Where hate despises light





Soft waves that shift below me

Even when I close my eyes

That wonder feeling

Where hearts are healing twice





If you just sit down next to me

And put your frown upon my knee

I see…





You found me dark and empty

So you filled me up with light

And I see heaven

You are my seventh sight





Violet is bleeding out

On and on, across the blue

You haven’t lost me

But it will cost me you

But it will cost me you





3. SECRET PLACE

From the album: LEXICON © 2008

Words and Music by Alex Wall





With the sweetest voice you come and talk to me

Your words are paper, so innocent and free

And you can share your fantasy

To have one day of only you and me





With your angel eyes you see so much more

You’re in my moments, so beautiful and pure

And I can share your fantasy

To have one day of only you and me





And I would kiss you all over

And I would hold you when you’re cold

And we could find that secret place where

No one judges who we are





With your pretty smile you’re holding back the rain

I know that I could take away your pain

And we can share our fantasy

To have one day of only you and me





In a secret place we curl up safe and warm

And in my moments nothing can go wrong

And we will share our fantasy

To have one day of only you and me





And I will kiss you all over

And I will hold you when you’re cold

And we will find that secret place where

No one judges who we are© 2008 ALEX WALL

Inside of your rose I comes and I goes

You heat the world around me and

The video skies; I get lost in your eyes

I think your wrapped around me and





Make love all day long

(And the moments will come)

Make love singing songs

(As bright as the sun)

Make love all day long

Make love!





From the start you stole my heart away

Sexy baby, gave me night, gave me night and day





Inside the inside; astonishing fire

It heats the world around me and

Since you’ve been my friend, I can be young again

If you stay wrapped around me and





I’ll make love to you

(And the moments will come)

If you want me to

(As bright as the sun)

From the album: LEXICON © 2008



Words and Music by Alex Wall





You're beautiful

You turn me on

And it's natural

But you think it's wrong

There's not enough time in the year

For you to hear

I want to tell you I love you

But you won't know, I fear





Unrequited May

I saw your boyfriend pick you up today

Unrequited May

I'm sure he came to take your breathe away

Unrequited May

Yu both walked up the stairs and locked the door

And Unrequited May

Now you won't be lonely anymore





Oh, oh, oh, how I want to be alone with you again

My friend

How I want to be alone with you again

My friend





You won't listen to me

Now the time is gone

And I'm dying

But you make me strong

There aren't enough notes in the scale

And so I failed

To be what you needed

But you were more than enough for me





Unrequited May

I hung your picture on my wall today

Unrequited May

A pretty face that never walks away

Unrequited May

I'll talk to it tonight and lock the door

And Unrequited May

Now I won't be lonely anymore





Oh, oh, oh, how I want to be alone with you

Again, my friend

How I want to be alone with you

Again, my friend, etc...





6. VERY WELL

From the album: LEXICON © 2008



Words and Music by Alex Wall





You pretend to kiss me now

And I pretend to hold you down

You sewed your heart on my sleeve

And made me drive you around

And I drove you around





When the sun turns red through the curls on your head

And the orange clouds roll out to sea

I’ll be giving you the best part of me

I’ll be giving you the best part of me





Lights go on around the bay

You should be lying next to me

Because I know you very well

Yes, I know you very well





If I must strengthen my soul

I’ve got to loose some control

I’m in the palm of your hand

I’m your most magical fan





When the sun turns red through the curls on your head

And the orange clouds roll out to sea

I’ll be giving you the best part of me

I’ll be giving you the best part of me





Violet moon is in my eyes

And it falls across your face and thighs

Now, I know you very well

Yes, I know you very well© 2008 ALEX WALL





7. NEVER STOP

From the album: LEXICON © 2008



Words and Music by Alex Wall





I sang to "make love"

I watch you give and take love

And now the time ends

Washed down with tears and diamonds





Still feel the Blues

Can't find no happy news

Bitter taste, indeed

I need to really lose control





I just go home tonight

I'm feeling like a kite

That dives into the ground

A song without a sound





Whenever you're in town

Call me up

You know I'll be around

You know I'll never stop





Take a look at the moon tonight

What a funky little satellite

Purple hips, and she says she feels good

"Hold me over for another night"





Well, you can drink

You can drink from my well

You can drink, but you cannot drink well

Sailing ships get lost in the rain, girl

But you're walking in a hurricane





When someone tries to take your soul

Buy it time, buy it time

When someone tries to take your soul

Buy it time...





Looks like I'll live more

I'll learn to trust and give more

I'll make the world see

The joys of peace and mercy





I Violet Light

We will learn to get it right

We will turn around

We will see the song behind the sound





Stayed up until the dawn

When I thought that You were gone

From every point of view

There's only me and You





No other fills my mind

No other holds my heart

Your Love is at the top

You know I'll never stop





8. ANOTHER WAY

From the album: LEXICON © 2008



Words and Music by Alex Wall





Close those curtains tight

The light is much too bright

It hurts me

It hurts my eyes





I’ve always loved the sun

But now it’s laughing down

It’s laughing

Down on me





And I’ve done what you have asked

The torch of song is passed

I’ve seen the future film be cast





Make them go away

This is not my game

You think we

Think the same





Pound those stake in hard

Hard, until they break

Until their splinters

Hold my frame





And I’ve done what you have asked

The torch of song is passed

I’ve seen the future film be cast





I've seen another way© 2008 ALEX WALL





9. TWO BROTHERS

Words and Music by Alex Wall





Said the night unto the day

“Don’t you know I’ve seen it another way?

When you’re on one side

And I’m on the other

That the night is just the day time’s brother”





And they’ve held hands

Around this world

From the times of rock and stone

To the days of bloody swords





And as we spin around this star

Forgetting who we are

In the womb that we adore

I am reborn…





10. TEARSN RAIN

From the album: LEXICON © 2008



Words and Music by Alex Wall





I’m ready to start again

I have a new place to be

I’m leaving all those friends

Who said that they left me





I’m luffing in the wind

Confessing every sin

‘Cos I’m ready to start again

I will leave where I have been





And though the spirit leaves my pain

In the flesh there will remain

Tears and rain, tears and rain

Tears and rain…

‘Cos I’m still the same





My roots are taking hold

The sap is sinking in

You’re young and I am old

But we’re happy in our skins





And with the passing of the flame

The wax will freeze again, in

Tears and rain, tears and rain

Tears and rain…

‘Cos I’m still the same





Blue moon embosses on the snow

A ghost, a host

So many ghosts I know

Now I know how clear the air can be

Only when I’m peaceful am I free

And I am free…





Somewhere in our minds

It is morning all the time

Where we can start again

Helps us leave where we have been





And in the future morning calls

And the past will wash away in

Tears and rain, tears and rain

Tears and rain…

‘Cos I’m still the same

Revisiting Paradise

A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON WELL KNOWN HINTS

PART I

A day is as a thousand years with God...

The Standard Paradise Day

Paradise-Havona standard day is based on the length of time required for the planetary abodes of the first or inner Havona circuit to complete one revolution around the Isle of Paradise; and though their velocity is enormous, owing to their situation between the dark gravity bodies and gigantic Paradise, it requires almost one thousand years for these spheres to complete their circuit.

37,000,000 worlds [based on the number of worlds in the first Havona Circuit] take 1,000 earth years to make a revolution around Paradise.



In 1,000 of our years, 37,000,000 worlds will pass by one point on Peripheral Paradise as they revolve around the outer edge of the outer circuit of Paradise satellites (seen as the outer ring of 7 worlds in the image above).

Let's look at this concept for a moment, mathematically...

37,000,000 worlds divided by (/) 1,000 earth years, means that 37,000 of those worlds have passed by any point on the extreme periphery (circumference) of Paradise, in one earth year. That's cruizin' right along!



In one earth day - using the exact length of one earth year: 365.242199 days (being 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, 46 seconds) - about 100 worlds (actually, it is 101.3) :) pass by that same point.



Remembering that there are about 86,400 seconds in a day, 4.2 worlds pass in an hour, and 1 world passes by every 14.2 minutes (or every 852.9 seconds).



That is about how many worlds would be passing by an observer on Paradise, of course that is with 21 Sacred Spheres moving in and out of the field of view. Looking in at Paradise from one of the worlds of the inner-most circuit would look something like this (though this is seen from about a 20 degree angle above Paradise), one still gets the idea of where those 21 Sacred Spheres might be at any one time...

Paradise System Side View

Many months ago I proposed some hypothetical measurements for Paradise at UBRON.



For lack of even a clue, I used the light year (LY) as a unit, and then applied that to the Paradise Ratio.



The Paradise Ratio: R_P = x:y:z (1.67:1.0:0.1), but in this case I made the Isle 7:6:0.6 LY. I've chosen the 7:6:0.6 because it is closer to the numeric translation of the UB text.

In form Paradise differs from the inhabited space bodies: it is not spherical. It is definitely ellipsoid, being one-sixth longer in the north-south diameter than in the east-west diameter. The central Isle is essentially flat, and the distance from the upper surface to the nether surface is one tenth that of the east-west diameter.

My original guess for a Paradise measurement...

If 1 Paradise Unit = 1LY



x = 7.0 LY (North – South)

y = 6.0 LY (East – West)

z = 0.6 LY (Upper - Nether)

So, using a deductive approach, going by the first whole numbers as Paradise Units, and assigning a one light year measurement to each Paradise Unit, I theorized the above.

Of course, the guess was completely arbitrary since the earth's orbit around the sun doesn't seemingly have anything to do with the rate at which light propagates.

But you have to start somewhere. And that's where I started...

For a more graphic idea, axes x and y are laid down in a flat plane, superimposed through a greatly flattened, ellipsoid (The Paradise Isle - First Physical Source [FPS]), and should look something like this...

Well, to finally start getting to the new point...





I believe that there may actually be a relation of light speed to distances on Paradise after all. I will be getting to that relation in Part II. For now though let's examine the problems and possible pitfalls to this argument, along with some other cosmologically considered numbers.



Life in the Paradise-measuring world would be much easier if we knew what the Paradise unit of measurement really was.



And, it would be really really nice if the actual size of the Isle would be related to the speed of light. How much time does it take a ray of light to travel from one side of Paradise to another? The speed of light is = 299,792.458 km/s.

If we were actually fortunate enough to find a correlation between the Isle of Paradise and the speed of light (or any universal constant), then we will have the key to unlocking the (probable) sizes of Paradise, Sacred Spheres, and Billion Perfect Worlds.


If we know that, then we can surmise the amount of local space that the Central Universe takes up.



Then we can more closely figure how large our Superuniverse of Orvonton must be.



Once that is accomplished, we are told that the giant Andromeda Galaxy is
outside of the Superuniverse, so estimates for the size of the Grand Universe could be better tendered when comparing the sizes of these immense star systems.



That Andromeda is so relatively close (anywhere from 1 to 2.6 million LY's from us), we might as well begin to estimate a chart the Primary Outer Space Level (OS1), where we are also given the hint that there are no less than "375 million" galaxies.



For the shape of OS1, think of a torus (a donut) filled with 375 million galaxies. At it's center is the Grand Universe with 7 some-what distinct "aggregations of matter" around it's center, each being a Superuniverse. They would maintain an orbit around their center of gravity, which brings us back to the Central Universe, and at IT'S center, the Isle that holds the whole bloomin' thing together!

It is interesting here to note that Bill Sadler, Jr. in his A Study of the Master Universe estimated that every Outer Space Level was 100 times larger in volume than the last. So, naturally, estimating the size of the Primary Outer Space Level (OS1), we would have a volume of 375 million "cubic galaxies" - with all the intervening space around them. We could then estimate enough room in the OS levels to (theoretically) allow...

Potential Number of Outer Space Galaxies



OS1 = 375,000,000 galaxies



OS2 = 37,500,000,000 galaxies



OS3 = 3,750,000,000,000 galaxies



OS4 = 375,000,000,000,000 galaxies

This brings the possible number of all outer space galaxies to roughly: 378,787,875,000,000 or about 378 Trillion. That's a lot. And it is really hard for me to believe it sometimes.





All of this assumes that these galaxies would be packed in tightly to the same 3D unit (a "cubic galaxy" - whatever that is - may be a cube with each side = 250,000 LY?), which might not-at-all be the case.

But anyway... In actuality, each torus-shaped
space level, even the whole master universe, would also be stretched into the ellipse showing the general shape of Paradise and the Central Universe orbits of the Havona Circuits, as they also follow "...the curve of the great ellipse" - the outline of Paradise.





Here is the quote that really gets me thinking...

One Paradise-Havona day is just seven minutes, three and one-eighth seconds less than one thousand years of the present Urantia leap-year calendar.

1,000 years - 7 minutes 3 seconds 125 milliseconds...

423.125 seconds total

THAT SHOULD ASTOUND YOU.

Now if that doesn't look like some kind of code I don't know what does!

And notice how incredibly accurate that earth-Paradise/Havona time is when comparing the two in earth seconds...

* 1,000 earth years = 31,556,925,993.6 earth seconds

* A Paradise/Havona (PH) day = 31,556,925,570.6 earth seconds

* The difference
between 1,000 earth years and a Paradise/Havona day = 423.125 seconds

To find the percent of accuracy for this comparison, we simply take the PH day (in earth seconds) and divide it by 1,000 earth years (in earth seconds) and then multiply that number by 100 to make it a
percent.

So...



31,556,925,570.6 earth seconds / 31,556,925,993.6 earth seconds

= 0.99999998659565256496187798569975 * 100

= 99.9999986595652564961877985699%

The earth's orbit could literally be used as a clock for the central universe to within an accuracy of:

99.9999986595652564961877985699%

For all intents and purposes 1,000 years of earth time IS equal to 1 PH day.





Now, there are many strange coincidences in our world. For instance, what are the chances that in our sky the apparent sizes of our sun (93,000,000 miles away) and our moon (a mere 238,857 miles away) are exactly the same? Not very good you say?

But in fact they are so close in apparent size that they are able to create a total solar eclipse (where the moon apparently covers the sun completely), while solar prominences are still able to be seen leaping off that same sun.


The great coincidence of a solar eclipse is not presumably planned. Neither is the 1 day to 1,000 year coincidence planned, but it is so specifically given (down to the 1/8^th of a second!), that surely the information we are given was planned by the Revelators, in order that we might investigate this clue and its meaning to the relationships between Paradise, the Central Universe the Superuniverses.





Lets look at this another way now...

Understanding the formula for the circumference of a circle is 2rp , we can then say that the earth travels in a mostly circular orbit, as follows ...

r = 93,000,000 miles; the distance from the earth to the sun

p = 3.1415926535897932384626433832795...

So, 2rp = 584,336,233.6 miles

The earth's orbit takes takes the planet on a
584,336,233.6 mile path through space each year. Therefore, in 1,000 years the earth travels 584,336,233,567.7 miles through space.





If the inner circuit worlds of Havona were traveling at the same speed as the earth, then they would also go 584,336,233,568 miles in that same 1,000 years.



And, if 584,336,233,567.7 miles is the circumference of the inner Havona Circuit, then it would be about 92,999,999,999.9 (or 93 billion miles) from one of those inner circuit worlds to the center of Paradise.



That means that the distance from the inner Havona circuit to the center of Paradise would be almost exactly 1,000 times the radius from earth to sun, or 1,000 AU's (Astronomical Units). It is important to remember that that would only be the case if these worlds moved at “earth speed.” The earth travels along its orbital path at 67,062 miles per hour.



Interestingly, if this was also the speed of a Havona Circuit I world it would take a photon traveling at c (if this were even possible), an average time of 133 hours to travel from the center of the Isle of Light to one of these inner Havona worlds, that's 5.5 light days, or about 0.015 LY (light years).

Before I go on to talk about how all this relates to the speed of light and the size of Paradise (in Part II), I have to ask you to ask yourself: does that size 0.015 LY seem tiny, especially when considering that you still need to squeeze three circuits of Sacred Spheres in, and then the whole Isle of Paradise itself?



This relatively minuscule amount of space - perhaps comparable to a large solar system - is going to accommodate the activities and beings from all future creation?

Just sounds small is all.



On the other hand, we at UBRON have talked before about the Havona spheres really whipping along (at near c!). For now, I would consider the circumference of that inner Havona Circuit at “earth speed” to be the absolute minimum size of that Circuit. That's where I'll pick up in Part II.

Growing Computer and Media Technology

I just bought a new stereo mp3 recorder (also records wav files - even surround sound 4 channel wav's). For years I've been waiting for a good stereo, hand-held, audio recorder. Now that mp3's are so prevalent, easy to send by email and even be posted on forums like UBRON, this is a real blessing. Here it is...




And, no, those are NOT my very well-manicured nails! :)


Anyway this thing - which costs about $199.00 - has been great to keep nearby as I'm coming up with new songs or guitar parts. It uses a SD (Secure Digital) card - same kind as I use in my little digital camera - so they are interchangeable). And for another $10 I bought a 1GB card. One GB seems small now for an amount of storage. that thought leads me to a very brief sentimental journey back through computing and the digital history of the last twenty years...


__________________________________


It is amazing how technology has become so powerful and inexpensive. In 1987 my family bought an Apple IIc with 4KB (!) of memory.





I bought my next computer in 1992 - a Mac Plus - as a sophomore in college. It had 1MB of memory - I was VERY proud! Remember these?...




I do think it's interesting how the older Apple looks much more up-to-date (even when compared with today's machines) than the Mac does. Hummm...


Here's an interesting site with a very comprehensive list of Apple Computer History.

As you probably all remember, computers were so novel and exotic back in those halcyon days of yore, that we felt like surely galactic travel could not be far off!

Well, galactic travel is still just as far off, and now I am drowning in gadgets: 1 - IBM 486 PC, 2 - Windows95 PC's, 3 - Windows98 PC's, 1 - WindowsXP PC and 1 WindowsXP Laptop, 1 Windows Vista PC... I still have my old Apple IIc and a Mac Quadra (1994). So, I have computers popping out of my ears! I also have countless old printers, fax machines, scanners, telephones, calculators, stereos, TV's and a whole laundry basket of remotes. And I'm just one guy. Sit back and ponder just how much stuff is out there.

The Apple IIc cost like $1300 back in the late 1980's. My Vista (factory refurb) cost $286! Granted, I didn't have to buy a monitor with it (since I had four or five floating around)!!

Now technology moves TOO fast. As witless consumers we just can't seem to keep up with how quickly things become obsolete.

There was an excellent article in National Geographic about computer recycling around the world: High Tech Trash. Unfortunately that link doesn't show all the incredible photos, graphs and charts that were in the magazine (well, it might but I didn't surf through the whole online article).

I keep all my old electronic gear because I can't stand to see such intricately manufactured things simply tossed on the garbage heap.

In the next few years there will be quantum computers (and possibly nine other weird computing technologies coming).

Here is a simplistic History of Computers from 3000 B.C. up to today.

The trend for data storage (and retrieval) seems to be running toward the solid state (no-moving-parts) direction for consumer products. SD cards (like the ones I spoke about above) can hold up to 32GB (that's 4000 CD's worth of data storage), and more storage will be on its way as working scales shrink. In my opinion, in ten years there will be no use for CD's, DVD's, tapes, and possibly even hard drives, unless hard drives are still considerably cheaper than solid state cards, which I very much doubt.

The typical computer hard drives that we all know and love are strange little creatures! They are constructed in "clean rooms", and their surfaces remain clean for there whole existence. But they are very "shy". Here's is what the private parts of a hard drive look like... Oh, MY! :)





Pretty sexy, huh? But the only useful hard drive is a VIRGIN hard drive. They are not meant to be violated by contamination caused by unscrewing their covers. If you were actually looking at the "bits and pieces" of your own hard drive, to the point where you saw it as it is displayed in the photo above, you should next understand that you have inevitably ruined the device. Because of my cat-like curiosity, I can speak from personal experience on this. ;)

Still, the hard drive is a VERY efficient way to store data, because it can be much less expensive than solid state devices and hold IMMENSE amounts of information - up to 1TB (1 terabyte = 1000 GB's). Unfortunately for hard drives it seems there is a point where retrieval becomes unreliable. This is not because of space, but because of heat.

The fastest hard discs today are zipping around at about 15,000 RPM (Revolutions Per Second). There have been experiments with 20,000 RPM (and even faster) discs. But all kinds of problems start to creep in... heat builds up. Here is something I never knew about how hard drives work:

Amazingly it is all about air! The so-called "discs" are actually called platters. These platters can be stacked up like old LP's in a juke box. For each platter there is a delicate arm that is capable of moving all the way across the width of the write surface.

The platters are made of non-magnetic materials (aluminum or glass) and coated with a thin magnetized layer.

As the platters spin so does all the air in the semi-sealed chamber. It is the movement of this air that lifts the arm, causing it to "float". At the same time the read/write head is aerodynamically designed to travel at a very precise distance above the surface of the platter, a distance much much smaller than the diameter of a human hair.

There is even an air intake and exhaust system. This is two tiny holes one that lets air in and one that lets it out. This air is thoroughly cleaned by the very fine filtration system it must pass through. So you see... Opening the cover allows dust in, and if the head ever runs against a piece of dust it will fail to work correctly and will ruin itself. There are professional means of sanitizing platters but they are not generally used by average consumers.

Luckily, one of the hard drive's greatest early advantages over temporary (RAM types of) memory, is that it is a non-volatile storage system. It retains the data even after power is shut off.

To be fair, I have to now show the innards of the SD card...





Not quite as sexy. You can't see anything doing anything... It is quite boring. I think its scale says it all though. An SD card is roughly the size of a quarter. The hard drive we saw is considerably bigger. Even my laptop's very small (in size) 60GB drive is still the size of a deck of cards.

Anyway... Getting back to the new recorder...

This new Zoom H2 has also been a nice higher-quality way for me to keep a dream log. I have just begun a new one, with the first entry listed below.

The only thing I have to point out before you listen, is that I am occasionally very frank and personal about what happens in these dream logs. This is because I'm trying to record as much as I can about the WHOLE experience, rather than editing it or sanitizing it. I understand this leaves me open to ridicule, or at the very least might be too much information for some folks, but I think you'll figure what I'm talking about here, and will be accepting of it. I'm not crude, but I am truthful...

The History of Lucid Awareness

I have coined the term, "Lucid Awareness", to mean the state of mind (whether sleeping or awake) where a person understands what they are experiencing and is fully conscious of that experience. It can mean waking experience or the so-called "lucid dream" experience (where one wakes up inside a dream and realizes they are dreaming). I am including the three major aspects that have led me to a Lucid Awareness. I think a basic understanding of the Kabalahistic view says a lot. I don't believe it represents everything that we need to know, but many truths can be extracted from it. So I include the Kabbalah information first...

THE KABBALAH - ESSENCE OF BEING

Please check out the Kabbalah Centre website.

Kabbalah — the world’s oldest body of spiritual wisdom — contains the long-hidden keys to the secrets of the universe as well as the keys to the mysteries of the human heart and soul. Kabbalistic teachings explain the complexities of the material and the nonmaterial universe, as well as the physical and metaphysical nature of all humanity. Kabbalah shows in detail, how to navigate that vast terrain in order to remove every form of chaos, pain, and suffering.

For thousands of years, the great kabbalistic sages have taught that every human being is born with the potential for greatness. Kabbalah is the means for activating that potential.

Kabbalah has always been meant to be used, not just learned. Its purpose is to bring clarity, understanding, and freedom to our lives — and ultimately to erase even death itself.

PSYCHEDELIC EXPERIENCE - PSYCHONAUTIC EXPLORATION

The most incredible journeys thus far recorded, in my humble opinion, are by D.M. Turner. He experimented with combinations of psychedelic substances, and brought the exploration of these substances to the outer limits of unorganized psychic mapping.

Unfortunately D.M. Turner went too far and died while on a Ketamine adventure. He took too much and drown in bath. Ketamine is one of the only psychedelics that has a potential for habitual use. It is what they use to put animals to sleep. It is a high powered anesthetic that in lower doses gives a full blown psychedelic experience.

The strongest substance that D.M. Turner found (indeed the strongest psychoactive substance there is) is salvinorin A (the principle component of Salvia divinorum).

Here are his descriptions...

Many who use salvinorin A spend the peak of their journey lying down or reclining, apparently engrossed in an internal world. At the onset of the experience there is often a complete separation of consciousness from the body and personality. similar to what occurs with Ketamine. What is experienced after this is quite variable, possibly more so than with other psychedelics. The visions seen with salvinorin A seem particularly real and convincing. Quite often people accept these visions as reality and forget they are under the influence of a psychedelic substance. Siebert has reported on a number of themes which are frequently experienced with salvinorin A.

1. Becoming objects (yellow plaid French fries, fresh paint on a drawer, a pant leg,
a Ferris wheel, etc.)
2. Visions of various two-dimensional surfaces, films and membranes.
3. Revisiting places from the past, especially childhood
4. Loss of the body and/or identity.
5. Various sensations of motion, or being pulled or twisted by forces of some kind.
6. Uncontrollable hysterical laughter.
7. Overlapping realities. The perception that one is in several locations at once.

There has been little written regarding first-hand experiences with Salvia divinorum or salvinorin A. Although recently reports from individuals have appeared in publications such as The Entheogen Review and on internet BBS such as alt.drugs.

Dale Pendell is one or the few to have taken a liking to Salvia divinorum. His book, Pharmako/Poeia, devotes an entire chapter to it and offers many poetic insights into the nature of this mysterious ally.

"Some say it is a sensual and tactile thing. Some say it's about temporality and dimensionality, that it's about time travel Somesay it's about the Root Energy Network, or that it's about becoming a plant...it's like a mirror with no frame: some don't see it at all; some do, but don't like what they see... Consciousness has to do with energy and light. It is really very simple, neither animals nor people have consciousness. It is plants that have consciousness. Animals get consciousness by eating plants."

These poems may seem arcane to those not familiar with the Salvia divinorum experience, but are likely to be easily grasped by those who are. An experimenter who chewed Salvia divinorum leaf reports in The Entheogen Review; five minutes of uncontrollable laughter, followed by visions "similar to those in fantasy paintings or ancient oriental palaces: the Alhambra of Grenada. A large, almost endless empty hall with beautiful arches and hundreds of columns: all in a strange, gloomy, blue-gray light with colors of deep magic and majesty." This person later went on to feel as if he'd become a tree, similar to an Oak. He experienced his bark as a sense organ, and remarked "while it was happening I had no doubt that a tree feels that way." Subsequent to this his experience changed from entheogen to aphrodisiac.

An excellent description of encounters with Salvia divinorum can be found in a tape by Bret Blosser. While on a cave hunting expedition in the Sierra Mazateca in the late 70's, Blosser quite accidentally came upon Mazatecs who use this plant, and was able to participate in several sessions with native shamans. He had the opportunity to receive instruction and learn about the plant's use over a span of several years, during which he periodically revisited the area. In his tape, Blosser discusses the uses for Salvia divinorum within the Mazatec culture, which includes; medicinally - to treat both physical and "psychic" illnesses, and in divining - the future, the cause or cure for an illness, and information about friends, family, and enemies. He provides insightful descriptions of his journeys, and of the preparation and guidance of his sessions. The curandero who administered Blosser's journeys works with psilocybe mushrooms more frequently than Salvia divinorum, and indicated that Salvia divinorum is "too fast" for most people.

Prior to his extraction research with Salvia divinorum, Leander Valdes. together with Jose Diaz, had taken part in ceremonies conducted by a Mazatecan shaman during which they ingested leaves from the plant. Valdes reported the following visions in an article appearing in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology :

"I see something between a cross and a sword which is covered with gold and has many jewels... It has everything inside, lights, animals, people, plants. Everything, of many colors. like a picture. Very very vivid colors." Valdes characterized his experiences with Salvia divinorum as involving sensations of "flying, floating, traveling rapidly through space, twisting and spinning. as well as a heaviness or lightness of the body." Later that evening Valdes' visions continued. He saw a purplish light that changed into a bee or moth like shape which became a pulsating sea anemone. The imagery expanded into a desert landscape full of moving prickly pear cactus shapes. Suddenly he found himself standing in a bizarre landscape with brightly colored flowers, talking to a man wearing a shining white robe who was either shaking or holding his hand. Next to them was something that resembled the skeleton of a giant stick-model airplane made from rainbow colored inner-tubing. The "reality" of what he was seeing amazed him.

The following experience was reported on the internet from a person who had smoked two deep bong hits of dried Salvia divinorum leaf.

"There was an edge, made of something between plastic and flesh, set about a foot in front of my face, running diagonally, upward to the right. I could touch this edge. and it had resistance when I did so. It's visual qualities were a bit less intense initially, pastel colors, some glistening. I started to pull at it, peeling it back, and it seemed then that the 'stuff' was simply "reality". I collapsed into a couch, closed my eyes, and unfolded the folds of this "stuff' (or rather it unfolded me; you know how it goes, very reflexive,) a very sensual, sexual experience, moist, son and hard all at once. Or, a distinct sense of losing my "mental faculties one by one, in very specific levels, until I could not form a thought. Space had become very peculiar, rich with crevices, stretching far down past what I could see. At this point I felt uneasy. A voice called up from one of the crevices "Do you want to stay like this forever?" I called out "No!", and the voice replied, "Then stop doing that!" "That" I took to mean the Salvia. Then I fused with a piece of furniture. A very odd experience, like I was simply the hidden other leg of the furniture, completing the gestalt, but in a very immediate bodily way."

A recent issue of The EntheogenReviewreports on one person's journey following the smoking of two dried Salvia divinorum leaves, consumed in two large hits from a water pipe:

"I felt like and saw myself as a tree. Branches began growing out of my body, filling up the room, and I felt, and saw, my roots growing all over the floor and out beneath the door. At thispoint I could no longer remember if I had smoked anything, or if my mind had just flipped on me. My room had turned into artwork from Where the Wild Things Are, a kid's book. The room was a garden of geometric twines and leaves from my own body." This trip was much more intense than any previous Salvia divinorum journeys of this person, who also reported seeing entities, including, "one who was pushing a wheelbarrow along one of my vines while smiling at me."

I will publish more from Salvinorin - The Psychedelic Essence of Salvia Divinorum as I am able.

LUCID DREAMING - REALM OF THE THOUGHT ADJUSTER

Here is a great list of sources: Lucid Dreaming.

And here is a brief Lucid Dreaming tutorial...

Lucid Dreaming Quick Start Tutorial

This tutorial should not be thought of as a comprehensive document explaining every little detail related to becoming a Lucid Dreamer. It is intended as a type of Quick Start manual to get you on your way. Only basic concepts will be covered in this tutorial, more advanced subjects are covered elsewhere. After reading and applying the concepts contained here, please continue to browse the forum and definitely purchase the book Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Dr. Stephen LaBerge.

The first few paragraphs here are our own thoughts, the rest of the tutorial contains facts and summarizations of the things we have learned from the many knowledgeable forum members as well as concepts learned from various websites and books.

Before beginning, there are a few things you should keep in mind:

Focus on success

It is not enough just to simply say “I will try”. I think Yoda said it best: “No, try not, do or do not, there is no try”. Set in your mind the intention that you will succeed. Some people come to this forum and experience their first lucid dream in a few days. Many others have had to work at it for weeks or months. Remember, there is no try, you will succeed!

Keep a positive attitude

Perhaps your biggest obstacle to learning how to become a lucid dreamer is frustration. Unfortunately, frustration occurs very often, especially when you have been working at it for weeks and have seen no progress. It is counterproductive to go to bed at night frustrated and tense. It is best to think of it as an adventure or a journey. Try to go to bed at night with the attitude that you cannot wait for the adventure to begin. One thing is guaranteed, even if you do not experience a lucid dream, chances are as you improve your dream recall, you will have some very interesting dreams to write in your journal.

Be diligent in your efforts

This goes hand in hand on focusing on success. You will not get there by just playing at it. Follow the exercises or make up a few of your own. Whatever you do, make the effort everyday. Anything worth having is worth working for. You would be reading this right now unless you believe lucid dreaming is something worth having.

Well, now that all the cheerleading is done with, let’s move on. Read each section carefully and follow the suggestions provided in each. You should work on the activities in all three sections at the same time. Please extract what wisdom you can from each section and modify it to works best for you.

Good luck and Happy Dreaming!

Gestalt Alteration and Seeker

Step 1 - Dream Recall

Before you can experience lucid dreams, you must first be able to remember your dreams.

The first and most important thing you can do to improve your dream recall is to keep a dream journal. You should write down everything you remember from your dreams each night. This can sometimes be a time-consuming process, but don't put it off until later in the day. Keep your journal right next to your bed so you can access it as soon as you awaken from a dream. If you are in a hurry in the mornings, you should take notes concerning your dreams, paying special attention to details such as feelings and colors, and then go back and write out the entire dream at a later time (do this at night when you come home, or take your journal to school or work). It is crucial, however, to get something concerning your dream down on paper as soon as you wake up. You may think that you will remember your dream, but by midday it could become just a foggy recollection. It is a time commitment to write down your dreams, but if you don't do it, you will have nothing to work with for the later exercises. Make dream recording a part of your daily routine, and dreaming will come into your hands a thousand times more easily. You never need to show your journal to anyone else if you don't want to. It is a private thing, like a diary.

Your journal can take any form you wish; it need not be fancy. You could buy a special dream journal at a bookstore, but a 99 cent composition notebook will serve the purpose just as well. You should write down the date and, if possible, the time of each dream you record for later reference. Some people like to title their dreams and include them in a table of contents. You may want to leave a sizable margin on the side of your description to add notes that occur to you later. If you are artistically inclined, or learn visually, it may be beneficial to you to include sketches of dream places, characters, or objects. Tape recorders are an effective alternative method of dream recording. You can record your voice describing your dream when you wake up in the morning, and transcribe it to paper, or you may choose to keep a library of all your dreams on tape. Whatever it is, your journal should be something you like and feel comfortable using. The setup of your journal is a completely personal choice. There is no right or wrong way to do it; the important thing is to record as many dreams as possible.

Recording our dreams helps us to pay attention to the dreams we are able to recall, and establishes a daily routine that molds the idea of dreaming into our lives. When we perform actions that cause us to think of dreams during the day, it helps us to "remember to remember" our dreams at night.

We all know that good dream recall is necessary since you will want to know the meanings of your dreams as well as to be able to share them with others. However, there is another more important reason for having good recall, identifying your Dreamsigns.

Step 2 – Identify your Dreamsigns

Since the goal of lucid dreaming is to become aware while dreaming, developing your skill of awareness about yourself and your dreams while waking is key to your development of awareness in your dreams.

Developing awareness of your dreamsigns is a simple activity that centers around the main ways that you will become lucid in your dreams.

A dreamsign is "a peculiar event or object in a dream that can be used as an indicator that you are dreaming" (Lynne Levitan, A Thousand and One Nights of Lucid Dreaming). Or, in essence, a signal to you in a dream. For example, if a pink elephant walked in the door right now, you might conclude that you are dreaming. This pink elephant would be considered a dreamsign.

While we are dreaming, however, we don't often recognize our dreamsigns as being unusual. For example, if you were in a dream right now and you saw a pink elephant, you might not think anything of it and keep on reading this.

If we read our dreams and find the dreamsigns that we have had previously, however, we will become aware of our typical signs and therefore more easily recognize them in our next dreams. There are four main categories of dreamsigns as developed by Dr. Stephen LaBerge:

Action - You, another dream character, or thing does something
unusual or impossible in waking life.

Context - The place or situation in the dream is strange.

Form - You, another character, or thing changes shape, or is oddly
formed /transforms. This may include the presence of
unusual clothing or hair.

Awareness - A peculiar thought, a strong emotion, an unusual
sensation, or altered perceptions.

After you have recorded a dream, go back and reread it. Locate unusual things or occurrences within it that could have given you a clue that you were dreaming. Then try to place these signs in one of the four dreamsign categories. A helpful way to distinguish these is to highlight, underline, or circle each type of dreamsign in a different color. For example, you might decide to highlight all action dreamsigns in pink, all context signs in yellow, form signs in green, and awareness signs in blue. This will help you to easily see these signs, and their categories, when you look at the dream later.

Once you have marked all the signs in several dreams, you should begin to record your dreamsigns in a table.

Recording these in a table not only helps develop your awareness of dreamsigns in and of itself, but will also allow you to determine what type of dreamsign most often causes you to gain lucidity. Learning about your dreamsigns will help you with visualization of your dreams in later techniques.

To determine your most effective dreamsigns:

Add up the total number of dreamsigns in each category. Add up the number of times this category was recognized.

Recognized / Total = % effectiveness

Step 3 - Critical state testing

If you never stop of ask yourself if you are dreaming when you are awake, how can you expect to ask this in a dream? Recognizing that you are dreaming is the key to becoming lucid in your dreams.

Critical state testing is the method by which you condition yourself to ask this question while dreaming. Ancient Tibetan monks stated that if you are to learn to question whether you are dreaming, you must ask no fewer than twenty-one times each day while awake.

Critical state testing must be performed regularly every day. You can set your watch to alarm every hour and perform a state test at that point, but remember, that will result in approximately 15 state tests per day. Remember though, the goal is to perform at least twenty-one state checks. The more often you ask yourself if you are dreaming, the more likely you will do so when you are asleep.

When to perform state tests varies by individual, however, you should consider performing a state test anytime one of the following occurs:

1. You observe one of your dreamsigns

2. You experience an unusual or strong emotion

3. If at any time the world seem ‘unreal’ to you

It can take as long as thirty days to establish a habit, therefore you should not give up if you do not see immediate results. Some night when you are dreaming, you will suddenly realize "Hey, I am dreaming!!"

In conclusion, the Lucid dream life is a dream life full of wonder and discovery. It is well worth the effort required to become proficient.

This tutorial shared with you the basic steps required to begin having lucid dreams.

You may wish to investigate more advanced induction topics such as Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dreams(MILD) and Wake-Initiated Lucid Dreams(WILD)

There are also ways of combatting nightmares with Lucid Dreaming techniques...

Using Lucidity To Combat Nightmares

Lucidity is a fantastic tool against nightmares- however, it can sometimes be had to get lucid/keep lucidity when scary things are happening all around you. The answer to this is simple- during waking life keep telling yourself that there's no chance whatsoever that anything can hurt you. Don't just tell yourself this - you need to believe it. You know it's true, anyway: if that nightmare you're having is so scary, how come you aren't dead or something? How come you aren't hurt?

With a bit of practice, you'll be able to carry this knowledge into the nightmare. Once you're lucid, you can simply tell the monsters/nightmare to sod off and mind their own business - and if they/it doesn't, you can use your lucidity to kill the scary stuff with a giant mountain or something. Don't be scared of them in that dream - you know it's not real.

Sometimes you can get lucid and still be scared of the monsters or nightmare, or still believe that you can be hurt. This is because dreams are so real sometimes, and it is naturally hard to collect your thoughts in a dream. Just remember that fact and repeat it every night and learn it like it's the bible - you'll soon have the nightmare sorted out in no time.

Once you've "defeated" a nightmare, it will never appear again. If it does, you can just do the same again - if you've defeated it once it will be even easier next time.

Also, check out this very active forum: Dreamviews

I give you all of the above because I want you to examine things that are not at odds with the UB.

Try to divorce yourself from the idea that there are things that compete with the UB. The UB trumps all other forms of communication (ultimately) about Reality. Still, though, your should be cognizant about how many other philosophies and cosmologies come into line with much that the UB asserts.

There will be plenty of sources to find that agree with the cosmic philosophy of the UB in the future. I want to state more and more frequently that STRANGENESS is the word for the day! If your are looking for conventionality, slow growth, neo conservativism, fundamentalism, you are in for a big surprise!

Things are not as they seem. Recognizing this fact, inspires me to show you why. I will continue to do that throughout this year.

Stay tuned!

The Cosmic Numbers

The following kind-of self-morphed into an essay, though I was not planning to write it, it just happened. Same thing happens when a song comes out of me. It was posted on UBRON.org a couple months ago. It will consist of two parts...



A STUDY OF NUMBERS

A COSMIC EPILOGUE



I know these two sound different, but they are connected, as you will see.

So here goes...



A STUDY OF NUMBERS

I always did like the torus as a shape, especially frosted, dipped in coffee, and with a handfull of chocolate chips! :)

Ideally a torus only has one side, like a sphere, though neither can be mathematically (easily) transformed into the other. Hmmm...40-20-40. I keep thinking about the Havona numbers... In fact the numbers all through the UB truly fascinate me. They seem to be screaming out a pattern, but we just can't seem to hear (or see) it yet.

Here's a little study of numbers:

Spacing of Circuits

Using the first Havona Circuit, we can describe each other circuit with the following formulae...

________________

n = 37,000,000

________________

I = n

II = I + n

III = II + n/(37/33)

IV = III + n

V = IV + n/(37/33)

VI = V + n

VII = VI + n/(37/33)

[If these proportions are graphed as circle's, one see's the Banner of Michael--three thinner circles, each surrounded by a larger circle. In fact, whenever I make the three-circle symbol now I use the Havona proportions. Of course the Havona Circuits are ellipses, not circles.]

I wonder what is special about 37/33? Mind you, I'm not talking about a calculator number (a repeating decimal), but the actual and complete fraction.

So here are three rudimentary rules.

_______________________

The Primary Digits Rule

[A little name I made up.]

Let's look at another pattern. The only digits showing, regarding Master Universe Circuits, are made of 1,2,3,4 and 7 (zero is a place holder, not really a number). I call these the primary digits.

_______________________

This is shown along with their associated geometric shapes below (anything called a world is assumed to be spherical), in the Master Universe Levels or Circuits...

Numbers of Master Universe Circuits

Paradise Circuit = 1

• 1 Ellipsoidal Isle

Sacred Spheres Circuits = 3

• 7 Father Worlds


• 7 Son Worlds


• 7 Spirit Worlds

Havona Circuits = 7

• 37,000,000 Circuit I Worlds


• 74,000,000 Circuit II Worlds


• 107,000,000 Circuit III Worlds


• 144,000,000 Circuit IV Worlds


• 177,000,000 Circuit V Worlds


• 214,000,000 Circuit VI Worlds


• 247,000,000 Circuit VII Worlds

Central Universe Dark Gravity Circuits = 2

• 1 Torus Inner Band - This is a structure consisting of three concentric tubes. Cut through it and you get a cross-section that looks like, you guessed it, the three-circle symbol!



• 1 Wall-like Outer Band

Superuniverse Circuit = 1 This is a large torus of space.

• 7 Disc-like (for now, ideally) Superuniverses

Outer Space Circuits = 4

• 1 Primary Torus


• 1 Secondary Torus


• 1 Tertiary Torus


• 1 Quartan Torus

If we look at the numbers of Havona circuits without the zeros, and adjust them to be decimals, adding up to 100 (as in 100 ultimatons in an electron) we get 7 levels...

1. 3.7


2. 7.4


3. 10.7


4. 14.4


5. 17.7


6. 21.4


7. 24.7

Decimals include 4-7's and 3-4's (holding to the pattern of no 5's, 6's, 8's, or 9's being involved). If one just adds up the decimals, one gets 4 (still fitting the rule).

It is then tempting to add an 8th level, taking out the decimals, and calling it "4", so...

1. 3


2. 4


3. 7


4. 10


5. 14


6. 17


7. 21


8. 24

In this way, the number still follows the digit rule, EXCEPT that there are now 8 numbers, which would be a no-no.

_______________________

The Secondary Digits Rule

However, we can use a little sophistry and say that of 4 digits NOT in the Primary
Digits Group, all but the number 5, can be made of various Primary digits (I don't count 1, because all whole numbers can be made up from 1). So, let's call the numbers: 6, 8, and 9, Secondary Digits. Now, don't feel bad for number 5, he still has a great place of honor, just keep reading...

_______________________

This limb is pretty thin, as I climb out on it, and it's beginning to bend, but I don't believe it is breaking yet ;).

In this way, we can have groups of 4 levels. Recall that the Paradise system is made of 4 levels--(1.) Paradise, (2.) Father Worlds, (3.) Son Worlds and (4.) Spirit Worlds. and of course there only 4 levels of outer space--(1.) Primary, (2.) Secondary, (3.) Tertiary, and (4.) Quartan. The intervening levels are two sets of seven, separated by the Dark Gravity circuits of the Central Universe. And although the Superuniverses are not ranked concentrically, they MAY be someday, who knows?

Consider the following:

We are told that Grandfanda was the from the first Superuniverse, which weakly supports an idea of evolution moving its way from SU1 to SU7 (our Superuniverse of Orvonton).

We are also told that the Supreme Being (The Universal Mother), herself may be located on Uversa--the capital sphere of Orvonton. Why would this be? It could be because the Superuniverses could become concentric some day; again, following the pattern of the Havona Circuits.

I realize this is a stretch, but I don't believe there's any information to disallow this possibility in the UB. I, myself, tend to not believe it, but it has entered my mind on many occassions, so I thought I'd mention it.

_______________________

The Five Master Levels Rule

If this wacko theory is right than the Master universe will have a very real and symmetrical pattern of 5 Master Levels to it:


4-7-2-7-4

4--Paradise, 7--Havona, 2--Gravity,
7--Superuniverse, 4--Outer Space


_______________________

Could these also be levels of certain particles? I have already speculated that they represent the levels of the Ultimaton itself (please review my URT in the UBRON Library, if you'd like).

But, could they also have something to do with the electron?

So my question to Mark, and all who are following along, is:

Can marbles, magnets and axles be used to construct an object that follows the three rules above, or any combination of them?

A COSMIC EPILOGUE

We have been discussing patterns shared by the macro and micro worlds. First we got a better hold on Havona by discovering the number of worlds in its circuits. That openned the door for discussing universe of the very small Ultimaton and electron. at the end here I want to briefly point out that there is even MORE than just these two things--micro and macro. I call this something-else "Novelty" (perpetually unique newness), a term borrowed from Terence McKenna, but only minimally analogous to his meaning of it.

The following is pretty esoteric so, those who get overwhelmed by hard to swallow concepts might want to skip this next part.

But, it is not MY inspiration that drives me to write about this, but rather Bill Sadler's take on some of the more enigmatic, cosmological and metaphysical concepts that are only lightly touched upon in the UB.

And for fun I will urge anyone who is interested to read the chapter in Bill Salder's A Study of the Master Universe, called "The Cosmos Infinite", for a great deduction of what might occur when these Five Master Levels have become perfected.

It is always good to keep in mind that the Central Universe is existentially perfect. It's a QUALITATIVE REPRESENTATION OF
INFINITY.

The Universe outside of the Central Universe will be experientially perfected. It (including the Outer Space Levels someday) will be a QUANTITATIVE REPRESENTATION OF INFINITY. It WILL BE as big, as big CAN BE.

These inner and outer realms are reflective in their perfection. Just like with a mirror the "image" is not exactly the same. A right-handed person's reflection is left-handed. Yet, they ARE (or - in the case of the Master Universe - will become) EQUAL Such is the case with: the perfect and the perfected; the inner and the outer; eternity and time; potentiality and actuality; existentials and experientials; etc... So, yes, there are kinds of dualities.

But, and I'm probably wearing out my welcome with all this by now, Ultimately (and I mean that in the UB sense), all of these dualities will become triune. In the Cosmos Infinite (in the Ages after POST-experientials have been completed), there will likely be a brand new form of reality a third reflection. There will be The Central Universe The Grand Universe and the Novaverse (meaning, "New Universe"--sorry, only name I could think of)...THIS is what Sadler is talking about. The Cosmos Finite is what we live in now. The Cosmos Infinite is what comes...NEXT.

I*M - A New Urantia Album

INTRODUCTION

I've begun to collect the songs of mine that have obvious UB
references in them and some that are UB inspired. The 20 songs
on this album are selected from 13 albums, with recordings
produced from 1998-2008.

I plan to market this album to the Urantia CommUnity and to
mainstream audiences. Already these songs are available at
Itunes for download (and 50 other audio online retailers). I'm
going to make a special effort this year to reach a non UB audience
with these UB ideas.

This music is representative of all my styles. Please don't be
turned off just because one song isn't done in a style you like, the
next song may be. The demographic that buys my vocal music is
primarily 18-35. There are psychedelic songs, hard rock,
folk, ambient, soft rock and experimental. The two most worshipful and gentle songs are 4. Becoming New and 6. Three Circles However, this IS a mostly progressive rock album.

Words from Meredith J. Sprunger's
The Gift of Revelation
Read by Jennifer Lovell with Music by Alex Wall


We are living in one of the great pivotal periods of history.

Society has undergone more change in the last one hundred years than in the previous two thousand years.

We are unlocking the secrets of the microcosmos and beginning to travel in outer space.

Great strides have been taken in the mastery and manipulation of our physical environment.

During this century [the 1900's] we have evolved a new physics, a new astronomy, a new psychology, and the beginnings of a new philosophical age.

Civilization changes course when new views of reality shift the thinking of humanity into different channels of growth.

We appear to be on the edge of one of these conceptual transformations.

Our society may be on the verge of another revolution in the way we view our world and the universe.

2. STUTTER FOG

From the album: BLUE AGE © 2002




Words & Music by Alex Wall

Do you want me? Do I move you?

Might I whisper in your ear?

Come along, Stutter Fog

On the lamb, on the hog

'Cos you can, can relate

To the mood on my face


Pushing, pushing, I push my way into the void

Zero, zero, change is like a fiction, boy

I fill my eyes with Paradise



Shine a light on the gate

Take my hand; lead the way

Cos' you can, can relate

To the mood on my face



Shine a light on the gate, take my hand; lead the way

Do you want me? do I move you?

Cos' you can, can relate to the mood on my face

Might I whisper in your ear?



Shine a light on the gate, take my hand; lead the way

Pushing, pushing I push my way into the void

Cos' you can, can relate to the mood on my face

Zero, zero change is like a fiction, boy



I dip my toes in paraffin

I light my way with a seraphim

I cannot say that life today

Is what it will be when they come for me

3. SERA

From the album: MOONFLOWER © 1998




Words and Music by Alex Wall

She says go my way

Chosen one, come along



There's a sign in your mind you should read

Cos you're in a bind, man

Think too much, lighter heart

Are you touched by the crutch of the snowman?



She says go my way

Chosen one, come along



Put aside the things that divide you

There's a seraphim walking up beside you

She holds the keys to the Fatherland

Paradise, mother of a simple man



If you care to hear the Light and see the Sound

Your ship will never sink or run a-ground

Sail Supreme, Ultimate, and Absolute

No need to find the cycle

Cos Infinity has come to you!



She says go my way

Chosen one, come along



Order what you can swallow, no more

You may not give it back, man

And the solid is hollow, I'm sure

It's the shadow of Heaven



She says go my way

Chosen one, come along



Put aside the things that divide you

There's a seraphim walking up beside you

She holds the keys to the Fatherland

Paradise, mother of a simple man



If you care to hear the Light and see the Sound

Your ship will never sink or run a-ground

Sail Supreme, Ultimate, and Absolute

No need to find the cycle

Cos Infinity has come to you!



Sail Supreme, Ultimate, and Absolute

Sail Supreme, Ultimate, and Absolute

4. BECOMING NEW

From the album: MOONFLOWER © 1998




Words and Music by Alex Wall

I can take all the tears away from your eyes

And there will be no more death or sorrow or cryin

And I can take away the pain

All those things are passing away

And all is becoming new

But, what about you?



And all those things are passing away...

What about you?

And all those things are passing away...

What about you?

And all those things are passing away...

What about you?

And all those things are passing away...



I can take all the tears away from your eyes

--It gets so lonely in this place--

And there will be no more death or sorrow or cryin

--And I can see the tears behind your face--

And I can take away the pain

All those things are passing away

And all is becoming new

But, what about you?



Now that all is becoming new...

What about you?

Now that all is becoming new...

What about you?

Now that all is becoming new...

What about you?

Now that all is becoming, becoming new...

And all those things are passing away...

And all those things are passing away...

5. STITCH

From the album: MOONFLOWER © 1998




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Well, toe-jam my philosophy

Say it doesn't mean that much to me

But I want to say "take it all away"

And I have to say "take it all away"



You say you want the stars to shine

And you've wanted it for the longest time

Well, you have to say "take it all away"

And you have to say "take it all away"



And love stands still

And we stand still, oh...



Is it a fine wine?

A stitch in time?

A highway scene with Mr. Clean?

A drive, a drop, a yield, a stop?

Cream, corn, art, porn?



Science-reliance, employment, appliance...

Splits me head and pulls out my defiance

Materialistic! Why shouldn't I risk it?

Better give it up if I don't want to fix it.



And the people say "take it all away"

And the people say "take it all away, away..."

6. THREE CIRCLES

From the album: WAKE TO DREAM © 2000




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Silence stands up proud and tall

But you know pride comes before a fall

I've tied up these loose ends

Wind makes the wheat bend

And the wheat could feed us all



And my waking dreams I see

Three circles in eternity...



The scientist agnosticates

On the principles of time and space

See through his outlook

Numbers in note-books

Lie around the place



When he turns them upside down he sees

Three circles in eternity...



From a window she watches her daughter's children

Play along the shore

But with the violent shaking of her hands

The poet wrote no more



And in her fading eyes she sees

Three circles in eternity...

7. LIFE CARRIER

From the album: TANTRUM © 2006




Words and Music by Alex Wall

When the things you've held so high

Come crashing to the ground

I'll write down the time

When love is on tv

The more I watch

The less I see

But I choose to be



In the end time

I promise you

In the end time

I'll dance with you



In the silence of the land

Still-water coves

Where man began

I wrote down the time

And you're still swimming to the Light

Still separate the wrong from the right

And you'll choose to fight



In the end time

I promise you

In the end time

I'll dance with you



Cos' I showed you how

I told you why

I thought you'd see

The image in your mind

I promise you

In the end time

I'll dance with you

8. FOLLOW ME (LIFE CARRIER REPRISE)

From the album: TANTRUM © 2006




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Would you follow me anywhere?

To the end of the world?

Where the sand we placed so long ago

Has turned into a pearl



Would you follow me anywhere?

To the end of the world?

Where the sand we placed so long ago

Has turned into a pearl



And I showed you how

I told you why

I thought you'd see

The image in your mind



I promise you in the End Time

I'll dance with you

9. ANOTHER WAY

From the album: LEXICON © 2008




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Close those curtains tight

The light is much too bright

It hurts me

It hurts my eyes



I've always loved the sun

But now it's laughing down

It's laughing

Down on me



And I've done what you have asked

The torch of song is passed

I've seen the future film be cast



Make them go away

This is not my game

You think we

Think the same



Pound those stakes in hard

Hard, until they break

Until their splinters

Hold my frame



And I've done what you have asked

The torch of song is passed

I've seen the future film be cast



I've seen another way

______________________________

10. TWO BROTHERS

From the album: LEXICON © 2008




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Said the night unto the day

You know I think I've seen it

I've seen another way?

When you're on one side

And I'm on the other

Don't you know

The night is just

the daytime's brother



And they've held hands

Around this world

From the time of rock and stone

To the days of bloody sword



And as we spin around this star

Forgetting who we are

In the womb that we adore

I am reborn

______________________________

11. RISE RISE

From the album: LEXICON © 2008




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Rise, rise and cheer from all sides

The time has come

Rise, rise look up to the skies

The world is young



Lies, lies; they're dropping like flies

Pull these scales, scales from my eyes

Rise, rise look up to the skies

The world is young



And if you wanted me to love you

All you had to do was ask me to

And if you wanted just to hold me

All you had to do was see right through me&



Rise, rise and cheer from all sides

The time has come

12. NEVER STOP

From the album: LEXICON © 2007




Words and Music by Alex Wall

I sang to "make love"

I watch you give and take love

And now the time ends

Washed down with tears and diamonds

Still feel the Blues

Can't find no happy news

Bitter taste, indeed

I need to really lose control


I just go home tonight

I'm feeling like a kite

That dives into the ground

A song without a sound

Whenever you're in town

Call me up

You know I'll be around

You know I'll never stop

Take a look at the moon tonight

What a funky little satellite

Purple hips, and she says she feels good

"Hold me over for another night"


Well, you can drink

You can drink from my well

You can drink, but you cannot drink well

Sailing ships get lost in the rain, girl

But you're walking in a hurricane

When someone tries to take your soul

Buy it time, buy it time

When someone tries to take your soul

Buy it time...

Looks like I'll live more

I'll learn to trust and give more

I'll make the world see

The joys of peace and mercy

In Violet Light

We will learn to get it right

We will turn around

We will see the song behind the sound

Stayed up until the dawn

When I thought that You were gone

From every point of view

There's only me and You

No other fills my mind

No other holds my heart

Your Love is at the top

You know I'll never stop

13. TEARSN' RAIN

From the album: LEXICON © 2007




Words and Music by Alex Wall

I'm ready to start again

I have a new place to be

I'm leaving all those friends

Who said that they left me


I'm luffing in the wind

Confessing every sin

Cos I'm ready to start again

I will leave where I have been

And though the spirit leaves my pain

In the flesh there will remain

Tearsn' rain, Tearsn' rain

Tearsn' rain

Cos I'm still the same

My roots are taking hold

The sap is sinking in

You're young and I am old

But we're happy in our skins

And with the passing of the flame

The wax will freeze again, in

Tearsn' rain, Tearsn' rain

Tearsn' rain

Cos I'm still the same

Blue moon embosses on the snow

A ghost, a host

So many ghosts I know

Now I know how clear the air can be

Only when I'm peaceful am I free

And I am free

Somewhere in our minds

It is morning all the time

Where we can start again

Helps us leave where we have been

And in the future morning calls

And the past will wash away in

Tearsn' rain, Tearsn' rain

Tearsn' rain

Cos I'm still the same

14. END OF DAYS

From the album: WAKE TO DREAM © 2000




Words and Music by Alex Wall

He missed the boat, he missed the train

The train that brought him sugarcane

There aint no moon to give him light

Now he needs the seventh sight

Walking in the spirit age

Cooking with the Salem Sage

In the muddy ground the man turns around

At the end of the day his hair is grey

He's pacing, he's walking

He's at the door and knocking

He's waiting for the end of days

Pantomime...I'm gonna waste some time

Little cigarette helsps stop the noise

I take a breath, and I forget...I forget

Did he forget how high we rise

I'm looking at her feet and eyes

If I'm the pet I wanna run wild

And make it to that broken smile

It makes me so impressed

Impressed with him

He thinks I'll lose the Light within

He could be wrong, he could be right

The answer's on the other side

It's a sunny day in Y2K

On a bridge of fate and tv tears

At the end of days

Pantomime...I'm gonna waste some time

Little cigarette helps stop the noise

I hold back all the tears

From thirty one years

I take a breath, and I will...

And I will, and I'll forget

I'll forget

15. NOAH

From the album: WAKE TO DREAM © 2000




Words and Music by Alex Wall

I was born on the rocky coast

Baptized by Crystal Waters

In a place with the most

The Lion's sign in the land of pine

I know these parts, I know these hearts

Woman in the crowd

What are you looking for?

I can be found

Where it all comes crashing down

And I just want to say

I hope I helped you find the way

Remember this time

Remember these days...remember...

Late at night I hear the highway cry

It helped me to sleep when I was a child

The icicles and the earth below

And when I wake up

I'm gonna play in the snow

People in the crowd

What are you listening to?

The words of a fool

In the Age of Blue

And I just want to say

I hope I wasn't in the way

Remember this time

Remember these days...remember...

Oh, Noah, look for the sign

Yes, it's gonna rain for a year this time

That you might believe

That you might believe

Now I see what has to be

Or you could take this cup away from me

These broken songs are all I have

The future's come

Don't forget the past

People in the crowd

What are you fighting for?

You're about to find a love

Like you've never seen before

And I just want to say

Before I go away

Remember this time

Remember these days

Oh, Noah, look for the sign

It's gonna rain for a year this time

And you will believe, yes you will believe

16. WAKE TO DREAM

From the album: WAKE TO DREAM © 2000




Words and Music by Alex Wall

In my fantasy, it's always you and me

It's got to stand for something

When I come around, gonna sell the sound

And it'll stand for something

And what I wanted to be is clear and free

And to be honest, sometimes

I wake to dream, I wake to dream...

Well I feel so tall, pierced wrists and all

I've got to stand for something

In the violet rain, you call me insane

I've got to stand for something

These lights are blinding my eyes

Glass and fire

I may be letting off steam

I wake to dream, I wake to dream

When the lion's come, spread the word around...

It's time to stand for something

And when you're at the edge

No more looking down

It's time to stand for something

Cos' it's a terrible place to save your face

So, if you want to be free, just...

Wake to dream, wake to dream (etc.)

17. FUNKY STAR

From the album: WAKE TO DREAM © 2000




Words and Music by Alex Wall

On a mountain top, I saw the sun burst out of the sea

It looked like atom bombs

It was a funky star

A diamond ring in my fantasy

On a frozen lake, I watched the night turn into the day

As I was flying north I saw a funky star

And I was held by its gravity

You say you're only happy when it rains

But behind those clouds a funky star remains

We watched the northern lights

And they danced with the Milky Way

We were so happy then, under the funky stars

As we gazed at eternity

On the way back home

You said that love can never die

And I still think you're right

Just like you were that night

Except for you and I

What happened to that book we used to read?

Why do you try so hard to hide from me?

I tell you I will only bring you peace

Don't hide from me, please

As I drift to sleep, I dream of things that will never be

But I will wake at dawn

To find my funky star

And that's good enough for me

18. AMERICA'S WORLD

From the album: WAKE TO DREAM © 2000




Words and Music by Alex Wall

I look to the west

To the bomb, to the best

To the end of the day

In a year and a life

In a time of the night

In my shallow eyes

Open my mind

Give me a sign

Tell me what you said before

Tell me what you're looking for

Open my mind

Give me a peak

I woke on Tuesday morn

I made the shower warm

On the radio they talked of death and war

In America's world I wasn't feeling proud

I was feeling sad, I was feeling bad

Why should I change

When nobody cares at all?

Why should I change

When nobody cares at all?

I got a job at the bank

I talk to folks all day

They call me up from near and far away

I know that all we have

Could feed the world each day

When I walk home at night

I pass little kids on the Hill

They all look up and smile

But their parents chill

It isn't worth their while

It isn't in their wills

Why should I change

When nobody cares at all?

Why should I change

When nobody cares at all?

19. MAKE LOVE

From the album: LEXICON © 2007




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Inside of your rose I comes and I goes

You heat the world around me and

The video skies; I get lost in your eyes

I think your wrapped around me and

Make love all day long

(And the moments will come)

Make love singing songs

(As bright as the sun)

Make love all day long

Make love!

From the start you stole my heart away

Sexy baby, gave me night, gave me night and day

Inside the inside; astonishing fire

It heats the world around me and

Since youve been my friend, I can be young again

If you stay wrapped around me and

Ill make love to you

(And the moments will come)

If you want me to

(As bright as the sun)

Ill make love to you

Make love!

From the start you stole my heart away

Sexy baby, gave me night, gave me night and day

20. UNREQUITED MAY

From the album: LEXICON © 2007




Words and Music by Alex Wall

You're beautiful

You turn me on

And it's natural

But you think it's wrong

There's not enough time in the year

For you to hear

I want to tell you I love you

But you won't know, I fear

Unrequited May

I saw your boyfriend pick you up today

Unrequited May

I'm sure he came to take your breathe away

Unrequited May

You both walked up the stairs and locked the door

And Unrequited May

Now you won't be lonely anymore

Oh, oh, oh, how I want to be alone with you again

My friend

How I want to be alone with you again

My friend

You won't listen to me

Now the time is gone

And I'm dying

But you make me strong

There aren't enough notes in the scale

And so I failed

To be what you needed

But you were more than enough for me

Unrequited May

I hung your picture on my wall today

Unrequited May

A pretty face that never walks away

Unrequited May

I'll talk to it tonight and lock the door

And Unrequited May

Now I won't be lonely anymore

Oh, oh, oh, how I want to be alone with you

Again, my friend

How I want to be alone with you

Again, my friend, etc...

21. CHOSEN ONE

From the album: TANTRUM © 2006




Words and Music by Alex Wall

Take me to the water's edge, chosen one

This life that we create is breathing on its own

We're gonna have to let it fly, chosen one

We love it, so be strong and sing along

I drove so fast, dark circles grasped

My eyes, as I began to die

My songs flowed out into my mind

They calmed me down, they gave me time...

Take me on the rolling waves, chosen one

I promise I will stay there until my work is done

We're gonna have to let it fly, chosen one

I know that you have light enough

To shine on everyone

I have no wife, I have no child

So many things unreconciled

My broken heart and racing Jeep

Gave the chosen one my soul to keep

Then cherubim flew down to me

With blue shirts and stethoscopes

They opened up my broken heart

Two seraphim stood next to me

Protecting me when I would sleep

They let me rest my broken heart

And when I'd sleep, I'd sleep so deeply...

That you could...

Take me to the other side, chosen one

Show me all the treasures hiding in the sun

But, you've given me a little more life, chosen one

It isn't time to fly yet and we are going home
