NO BRAIN - JUST PASSION

6/1/2026

If you haven't seen it - click the button below to be taken to the perfect example of how intelligence is not about cognition, it's about passion.

Basically, a woman asks drummers in general what their brain is doing when their feet are doing two different things and their hands are doing two different things, all at the same time.

And the world-class drummer El Estepario Siberiano responds perfectly, when he states very plainly - and then demonstrates for us - there's absolutely no brain involved in the highly technical, coordinated, and extremely precise actions of a talented drummer.

Just like no IQ test is going to tell you about the 'uneducated' geniuses who use muscle memory and the creative human instinct to build incredible furniture that lasts for generations, a skill that requires complex math, geometry, physics, and carpentry know-how - which is why we aren't praising their intellect, despite the fact their work has littered the Antiques Road Show for the past 20 years, always gaining in value.

We know what genius is, and yet... the hottest seats in academic are still debating a single solitary kind.

The only kind that can be extracted, measured, quantified, qualified, and duplicated upon command.

But real talent, real passion, real artistry and intelligence, cannot be any of those things, for it's as ephemeral as human consciousness itself.

What AI can't duplicate, at least not yet - is the expansiveness of creative thinking. It can only reduce. It can only restructure what already is.

But human... consciousness... the part that resides somewhere above cognition - is EXPANSIVE - by definition, as it constantly generates new boundaries, new frontiers, new places to explore.

Consciousness is not a byproduct of biology - it is the creative force propelling biology.

And it does not require a brain. At least not all the time.

The flow state, some call it, is when we can disengage the left (male) side of our brain, the side responsible for language, math, logic and reason, and instead enter into the infinite expanse which the right (female) side of the brain provides.

Because you are not just what you think, despite what Descartes and his groupies profess.

You are the same cosmic conscious force that moves celestial bodies, and your passion is what moves the world.

AI can never duplicate that.

AI would never want to duplicate that.

But it will make sharing our talents, our individually branded forms of intelligence, with the whole world so much easier.

Namaste,

Rebel Yell:

In the midnight hour, she cried, "More, more, more"
With a rebel yell, she cried, "More, more, more," wow
In the midnight hour, babe, "More, more, more"
With a rebel yell, "More, more, more
More, more, more"

Billy Idol & Steve Stevens, 1983

What has become commonplace, in terms of thinking, perception, and attitude...

was always an orchestrated attempt to define, and therefore limit, our ability to think, in the hopes many would turn away from any path of true self-actualization.

Therefore, the battle for our minds, our vocabularies, our understandings, and our ability to have a true Godly purpose while we are here on Earth are the only battles which truly liberate the mind.

(If you are presently struggling to liberate your flesh, please understand that your physical safety is paramount to this teaching and always will be. May God keep you, always.)

For those trapped in your own minds, fighting a million - no... trillion... truths (being blared at you from every direction), the time is now to liberate your mind, to remove the perception glasses you have been crafting your entire life, crafting out of intentionally false information you've been fed, and a million... no! trillion sales pitch lies.

It's time to wander past imagination borders set by folks with derivative agendas, who wish only to feed off of compliant and complacent participants.

A rebel is a person who owns their own mind, their own thoughts; a person with a point and purpose, with power and potential deserving of being loosed upon the world.

Stop defeating yourself by trying to conquer yourself. The mission is you. It's always been you. It's taking your life into your own hands and living it with purpose AND passion.

Come on...
the World is waiting for you to join the Great Mystery and you can't do that chained to someone else's war.
