“Whatever you vibrate, you manifest and attract to your Self. So, you work on healing your Self in order to manifest tranquility around you. You become tranquility. If there is conflict living within you, you cannot live in a world of tranquility. The world mirrors back the condition of your love and of your intent. If the world that you are living in is not a world that is at peace, then you have to discover peace within your Being. The shaman no longer searches for meaning in life, but brings meaning to every situation. The shaman stops searching for truth and brings truth to every encounter. You do not search for the ideal partner, you become the ideal partner. Then the ideal partner discovers you. This is an active practice focused on interdimensional healing.”

“Blackmen born in the U.S. and fortunate to live past the age of eighteen are conditioned to accept the inevitability of prison. For most of us, it simply looms as the next phase in a sequence of humiliations. Being born a slave in a captive society and never experiencing any objective basis for expectation had the effect of preparing me for the progressively traumatic misfortunes that lead so many blackmen to the prison gate. It required only minor psychic adjustments.”

Thu, 06 Jun 2013 21:53:49 -0400

Bruce Lee had me up to three miles a day, really at a good pace. We’d run the three miles in twenty-one or twenty-two minutes. Just under eight minutes a mile [Note: when running on his own in 1968, Lee would get his time down to six-and-a half minutes per mile]. So this morning he said to me “We’re going to go five.” I said, “Bruce, I can’t go five. I’m a helluva lot older than you are, and I can’t do five.” He said, “When we get to three, we’ll shift gears and it’s only two more and you’ll do it.” I said “Okay, hell, I’ll go for it.” So we get to three, we go into the fourth mile and I’m okay for three or four minutes, and then I really begin to give out. I’m tired, my heart’s pounding, I can’t go any more and so I say to him, “Bruce if I run any more,” –and we’re still running-”if I run any more I’m liable to have a heart attack and die.” He said, “Then die.” It made me so mad that I went the full five miles. Afterward I went to the shower and then I wanted to talk to him about it. I said, you know, “Why did you say that?” He said, “Because you might as well be dead. Seriously, if you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it’ll spread over into the rest of your life. It’ll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level.”
