Sid's Slang Words

Chill Out Siddha

Getting into a new experience … is not too difficult. It moves the body … to create the passions and celt. What is more difficult … is to engage the experience in a rational manner … and to express it in words and terms … that are consistent with the phenomenon. Such terms need to address the anxiety of the individual … as well as their understanding … in order to create a reasonable response … to that which is entirely new. Thereafter … the individual may build on the experience … with greater comfort and sense of the norm.

The name Sid … may pass for a person practicing siddha. It takes siddha practices out of the cobwebs of the gothic. The term … artistic sky … may pass for the perceptions … the individual brings to the new world … he is waking to. The source of the individual's creative impulses needs identification … so that we may refer to it. The ancient Indics referred to it … as the Ganges. Today … we identify these impulses in three forms … the iona in the bloodstreams as istreams of dreams … the blood itself as … era … from the Indic … ' eratham ' meaning blood … and the sexual fluids … as xfi … for its excitable and fun nature.

So that when the doctor asks … his client … ' How was the week?' The client replies with … ' Its been a busy sky all week. I met with another Sid … in my apartment building … and we have been trading some notes. But he's still so full of … era … fighting with his istreams. He needs to chill ( already in usage ). I spoke to the super ( God ) yesterday … and he showed me the form of the Christ in LD ( lucid dreaming )… to assure me that it going okay. So I'm taking a look at my childhood … and finding that … I'm more of a kid … than I ever was … but its cool ( in usage ).'

Our contact with siddha arts … has neither been willing or expected. It descends on us … like pink elephants … and the trail from the medieval ages … beginning with wiccan … divine madness … and boisterous priests … has given way to … mystics … pantomimes … and clownish aspects … that has come to represent itself … as the general state of man … in these times. But it would help to bring some dignity … to what the individual does. It is no less than … the engagement of the greatest study and intelligence … the world has ever known.

The humor monger ( comic ) … in the experience … is a frightful sensation of rejection and dismissal of the individual personality as simply nonsense. It staggers our confidence … and throws out the manicured ( vain ) … dependencies … that we rely on for comfort. But it is the … commuter route ( the way of the process ) … in setting aside past habits … in favor of the … harmona ( new way ) … of viewing our experiences.

Our literature abounds with books … that provides the hint of transformation … man experiences in these times … and reading these … is a big help to get a perspective of the changing norms we encounter. Out on a Limb ( MacClaine ) … Man of La Mancha ( Cervantes ) … A Tale of Power ( Castaneda ) … Moby Dick ( Melville ) and so forth … are certainly a change of cupboard shelves … from the old classics … that introduced the same idea in books like … Aeneid ( Virgil ) … Perseus  … and Jason and the Argonauts.

Psychotherapy practices … have been an invaluable support in recent times … but our understanding of the human content of the phenomenon … creates the need for us to view it … as a progressive development in society … and not a disease. We need to cultivate some new practice in this regard … while our entrenched natures are still open to new suggestions. A little practice … goes a long way to overcoming its entrenched nature … and to start us on the road to a new society.

Aleister Crowley … in my view … began the genre for the … managing our new psychological natures … with the introduction of the macabre … and spooky … view of the nature of the human condition. Authors like … Stevenson ( Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde ) …Wells  ( The Island of Dr. Moreau ) … Stephen King's It … provided glimpses of such phenomenon of change. Blake's drawings … Jung's Red Book … created indications of a similar transformation. Each of these … attempted to reach the social public … with ways to engage our developing selves.

No doubt … managing our anxieties and fears … are the key to … creating acceptance … for the emerging new views. That might explain why … Gothic literature … introduced to us … the personality of Satan … or Lucifer … as a fallen angel … who is attempting to regain his norm … in a world of the self conscious perceptions … of love and joy. In the East … Saivite philosophy … has grown from the Satan stigma … to portray the cause of change as … Siva the destroyer. It continues to receive efforts for its greater refinement.

To the individual today … the issue is certainly one that … won't go away. And it becomes of special significance in our lifetimes … to deal with the issues … with a learned disposition. And one way to do that is simply to confront the issues … like taking the bull by the horns … and gradually moderate its excesses of anxiety … and deal with it … in a sanguine manner … that passes for … normal social manners. It turns into something resembling the male arts … or the male club … with its own credo for bravery … and frontiership attitudes.

In doing so … and achieving its goals … we are relegating the fears and anxiety … of the body .. into exile … the way the Indics dispatched … Ram … to live as a native in the forest … away from the manicured … expectations of society. In my dreams … I see him … living in a grass hut in the forest … and wears masks … to deny his human condition … while he adopts … the idyllic nature of the anima in the wilds. There he lives … seeking the birth of a new specie … for his undomesticated impulses.
