The speed at which the earth spins varies upon your latitudinal location on the planet. If you're standing at the north pole, the speed is almost zero but at the equator, where the circumference of the earth is greatest, the speed is about 1,038 miles per hour (1,670 kph). The mid-latitudes of the U.S. and Europe speed along at 700 to 900 mph (1125 to 1450 kph).

Tribe seems so much less obnoxious than that face thing, more relaxing less annoying, so much more creative without all the constant bs, silly tests, and endless banter.

More like home, its always nice to come back.

It was about 2:00 am I was working on a new track, and i felt the whole house shake for a few seconds, i thought to myself "was that a earthquake?" so i went into the hallway to see if maybe my brother was awake messing around upstairs or something, all was quiet.
I already had a good buzz on and was mostly faded so I dismissed it and went to bed. when i got up this morning i checked online and sure enough it was a 3.5 wow! My first earthquake in SF, The track I was working on is a good one, its not even finished, I wonder what it will do when its done! haha!

When I get caught up in all the hustle and bustle of it all, it is so easy to forget or loose sight. If I stop for a moment and take a deep breath, inhale /exhale smell the roses so to speak, close my eyes and listen, I mean really listen and feel the vibrations... it comes back, the clarity, I remember that thing that I have always known...

It has been so hard for me to describe... through much meditation and deep thought the one word that has come to me is "Brahman" I have compiled here some information and translation that I feel compelled to share,

If you can, check out this great video "Deepak Chopra and Robert Thurman: God and Buddha - a dialogue" it is really amazing and has helped me to put things into perspective

you can watch it here >>> video.google.com/videoplay

Translating the word Brahman, a sanskrit word to english I got: noun. (lit. `" growth "' , `" expansion "' , `" evolution "' , `" development "' `" swelling of the spirit or soul "

and this description:

Most Hindus venerate one or more deities, but regard these as manifestations of Ultimate Reality. The Ultimate Reality that is behind the universe and all the gods is called by different names, but most commonly Brahman (not to be confused with the creator god Brahma or the priestly class of Brahmans).

In the Rig Veda, Ultimate Reality is referred to as "the One." In the Purushasukta, it is "Purusha," and in the Upanishads it is called "Brahman," "the One," and several other names. Most modern Hindus refer to the Ultimate Reality as Brahman.

The Upanishads describe Brahman as "the eternal, conscious, irreducible, infinite, omnipresent, spiritual source of the universe of finiteness and change." Brahman is the source of all things and is in all things; it is the Self (atman) of all living beings.

Brahman is impersonal Being in itself, but it can be known through the many gods and goddesses that are manifestations of Brahman.


Namaste,
