The Belligerati is not concerned with who may have moved his cheese.
The soul of the Belligerati no chicken soup elixir in order to feel
fulfilled. These quck-fix cartoonish Davincicode pop-culture
philosophies are baubles for children, toy robots of cheap material,
and a Belligeratti brushes them off his or her shoulder with disdain
and perhaps a little chuckle. The mind of the Belligerati is like the
sharpest steel honed to a god-like sharpness and is prepared for
confrontation every waking working moment, yet is tranquil, serene,
and composed as a mountain spring as the dawn breaks and the mist
rises. And if a pebble? And if a ripple? Then a pebble and a
ripple. So what? It is what it is. We march onward towards death,
but first, a dram - Doc Anderson 2/4/5
For the Belligerati, time is a harmless ghost, a wisp of stale smoke.
Belligerati have no fear of the soul-crushing, life-wasting banality of the
8-5 schedule because the Belligerati enters fully into the golden Oneness of
prose, riding the heaving waves of deep breathing, using his or her mantra.
As the day progresses, the Belligerati works as if alone in a green meadow,
above a stream which gurgles. Maybe there are butterflies, it depends. All
falsehood becomes truth and the Ordinary Mind is the Eternal Mind. This is
known as the Empty Bowl concept.
From time to time, moments of stress and distress bubble to the surface,
pushing both from within and without - a harsh word, a missing file, a
parking ticket, a co-worker's stupidity, a fashion problem? The Empty Bowl
becomes full of peanut shells and bottle caps of anxiety. When this occurs
to the Belligerati, he/she recognizes this feeling immediately, as if a bad
odor has entered the room. The Belligerati knows that there are many
unsavory unlikable aspects of his searching and some are necessary and some
are frustrating. Using deep breaths and the Three-Finger technique, the
Belligerati pierces the mist, tips the bowl empty, and turns anxiety into
righteous energy. This is known as Riding the Dragon. - Doc Anderson 2/7/5
