NEW HUMOR BOOK ABOUT POP MUSIC
Pop Goes the Music: Humor in Rock, Folk, Rap, Soul & Reggae
In its early days, there was a saying that “rock ‘n’ roll was here to stay.” In this book, it’s also here for laughs. As is the music of folk, rap, soul, and reggae. The book is divided into 9 sections or “discs,” and 55 chapters or “tracks.” These include:
“The Gospel of John (Lennon)”
“Beggars Banquet: A Rolling Stones Eatery”
“The Therapist of Rock”
“Wonton Soup for the Soul: Pop Music” disc
“At 65th Anniversary, Woodstock Festival will Finally be Retired”
Parody songs–“Puff, the Magic Daddy,” “Knights in White Armor,” “I Am a Lineman for the Cowboys,” and “Griftin’ the Night Away,” among others.

There’s also some material presented from my cosmic/comic book Spiritual Lampoons.
Free Advanced Monthly Meditation Webinar
The advanced meditation webinars, held for those who meditate, start with me opening the “floor” to questions about your meditation practice and/or understanding of the path of evolution of consciousness. Then, I’ll do a group meditation check. After that, I’ll direct you to a link for a talk by Maharishi, which each meditator can play on his or her computer while also reading the transcription of the lecture. Lastly, I’ll take questions, and lead a discussion about the presentation.

Testimonial on Advanced Techniques
“The advanced technique has brought me into deeper and more profound experiences where I become much more aware of colors that tie into my chakras and become aware of a state of consciousness where I have no thoughts for extended periods along with no mantra and I am just aware of feelings of bliss and joy tied into the colors expanding into my awareness.
–Justin McCarthy, Senior VP, Loan Review Manager, Miami, FL
Living Room Lectures
Sometimes the environment we hear something in can make the world of difference with regard to how we react to it. Meditation is no different. Toward that end, I enjoy giving free talks on meditation in the living rooms of meditators or on Zoom if we live far apart. If you’d like to share the benefits you’re enjoying from meditation with your family, friends, and co-workers, let me know and I’d be happy to set up an hour-long introduction to the benefits of meditation and explain to those present how it works and how it differs from other programs of personal growth. To set up a living room or Zoom free talk, just give me a call at (845) 664-1883.
Article: THE NATURE OF GOVERNMENT & THE GOVERNMENT OF NATURE
Having seen Spielberg’s Lincoln, I’m reminded of the ideal our 16th President invoked in his Gettysburg address when he said that, “government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth.” It’s a tribute to democracy–America’s great gift to the world that inspired revolutions and toppled European kings.
Thomas Jefferson, who wrote the Declaration of Independence, said, “The government is best which governs least.” As I write this column, Americans watch the clock tick, as our elected officials threaten to drive our economy perilously off a fiscal cliff. We’re seeing far too much of the machinations of our dysfunctional government.
Jefferson’s quote reminds me of something I learned from
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the great guru who taught me how to teach meditation. He said that governments should model themselves on the government of Nature, adding that the Universe is governed by Laws of Nature that are so well conceived and executed, that people don’t even know there is a government operating.
The sun rises each dawn and sets each dusk, the moon governs the oceans’ tides, gravity is at work in our world. We see the effects of these laws of the Universe, but we don’t see the government that’s carrying out such laws. That’s what makes Nature’s government supreme; it governs so effectively we don’t even know we’re being governed.
Contrast that with what’s happening in Washington. These days, the U.S.A. is more like the Divided States of America. Last summer, a Gallup Poll found that the approval rating of the 112th Congress had sunk to a pitiful 10 percent. This disapproval is greater than Americans’ dislike for the IRS, President Nixon during the Watergate scandal, British Petroleum during its catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, telemarketers, lawyers, HMOs, and bankers.
Maharishi said that people get the political representation they deserve, that elected officials reflect our consciousness. There’s Congressional gridlock, but are these stalemates different from the procrastination that stalls the personal development of the 300 million people they represent? The U.S. is like a “Procrasti-Nation:” tens of millions of American households and the House of Representatives that’s supposed to serve all those households all procrastinate.
Einstein famously said, “We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.” Solutions lay in getting to the source of thinking itself, to expanding consciousness. The meditation that Maharishi taught, (Transcendental Meditation), and the Higher Self Healing Meditation that I teach that’s inspired by decades of teaching the former, brings awareness to the unbounded state of pure consciousness at the deepest level of the mind, a source from where all thought springs, at the transcendental level of the mind that’s also the home of all of Nature’s laws. As people meditate, they live more in tune with such laws, attracting politicians to represent that consciousness. As a result, the greater the chances will be that we send to Washington a new breed of public servant who lives in such harmony with Nature.

Quote
“Always after meditation, morning and evening, be good to others, be kind to others, maintain purity at every level. ”–Maharishi
Testimonial
“As I go through meditation and repeat the mantra time after time and sit in silence, I recognize that everything I need is within me already!”– Sergio Anacleto, Network Architect, Sydney, Australia
Want to Make Money from Meditation?
When I ran my own marketing/PR firm, I loved thanking anyone who referred a new client to me, by sending a check for 10 percent of the fees generated. I have a similar policy as a meditation teacher. If you inspire someone to become my student, you’ll receive 10 percent of the course fee for caring enough about the people in your life that you’d like them to live with more freedom from stress. It’s my way of saying, “thanks.” My thought is simple–who couldn’t use a piece of unexpected income?
I also give you 20 percent of the revenues for any meditation course that you produce or sponsor for me. Sponsoring means finding a time and space for the free introductory lecture and the three days of hour-and-a half classes—it could be your own living room, if you like—and it can also be held on the Internet as a webinar. I would email you a flyer for the lecture, which you’d then email to the people in your life. If five people learn to meditate, for example, you would enjoy $500 for your work.
