AH POOK IS HERE !

I have released a new video onto youtube today. Ah Pook the Destroyer.

Its a tribute to both the Hiroshima victims and William Burroughs understanding of this also. William was arrested in 1972 for spraying the words Ah Pook is here on a New York Subway. His graffiti may have been correct in its prophecy.

The Mayan God - Ah Pook - is the destroyer. Ah Pook is the God who will end all things and destroy the known universe when all things come to an end. The reason Burroughs commented on this in the way he did I think was reflective of the times.

Some people today think we are in the times of Revelations and Armageddon. Simply so did the Mayans prophesies this time. The doomsday has been set to December 21, 2012.

So have we invited the destroyer into our world? Is Ah Pook really here? I tend to think many people around the world today and those in the Middle East, may even think they have seen Ah Pook, the destroyer. But many religious philosophy and doctrines preach a sense of closure or destruction. I do not share the growing idea in people that we are simply waiting till we destroy ourselves.

Nuclear devastation, some super virus, Artificial Intelligence, Asteroid impacts, global warming, pollution. Many people assume these things are simply waiting to kill us all off. I find it strange there is almost an accepted matter of fact attitude that we will one day end ourselves, but its ok because it won`t happen so soon.

Humans ingenuity, greed, hunger, and passion is a remarkable thing. It is something to take from the people of Hiroshima who witnessed their own armageddon, that they stood together and rebuilt upon the devastation. To me this is the human endeavour, the courage and the spirit in us. We have been obsessed by the stars since the dawn of time. It is perhaps our destiny that we are the first being on this planet that through its technology , can seek refuge in the depths of space.

Science fiction perhaps yes? But the small steps to the moon and mars are our first. These steps show us we can break the breach and control or even change our destiny of doom.

As we play with the toys of genetics and particle acceleration it would seem we are becoming Gods ourselves, no?

Many of us may think in time we will grow too big for our boots. I have more hope in our ability and will to survive than that. No matter how hard, how tragic, we are a people, a species, that is driven to its very brink to survive at all costs. We are remarkable beings in our infancy emerging through our adolescence.

I hope though people enjoy my video as always, and today I hope a few remember Hiroshima. Today with all the conflict going on our news channels, it would be interesting if just for 10 minutes, they could stop and remember Hiroshima. Remember people who experienced the hate of the atom. Felt the heat of the Sun itself. And saw a light no man had witnessed in anger before. 80 000 people died from this day. In the quiet perhaps we could hear the silent scream as the atom broke. Perhaps we could see how far we have gone and can go again in our differences. Sadly enough for many reasons these thoughts and feelings are not encouraged in our world. Because of profits and those who can wage wars. Politics and greed. All these things slow and hinder the development of us reaching out to a much higher understanding of ourselves. But for today, this world is still them and us.

I ask today, we think of them.
