The hope of a secure and livable world lies with disciplined nonconformists who are dedicated to justice, peace and brotherhood.
Martin Luther King Jr
“We could say that meditation doesn't have a reason or doesn't have a purpose. In this respect it's unlike almost all other things we do except perhaps making music and dancing. When we make music we don't do it in order to reach a certain point, such as the end of the composition. If that were the purpose of music then obviously the fastest players would be the best. Also, when we are dancing we are not aiming to arrive at a particular place on the floor as in a journey. When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point. And exactly the same thing is true in meditation. Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment.”
About ONLY HUMAN (entire new CD up for streaming!!!)
ONLY HUMAN has recently finished their new album titled "The Dismantling" and it is being well received by long time fans and newcomers alike. We recorded, tracked, edited & mixed with local Seattle engineer Don Gunn at Two Sticks Audio the new studio built and owned by Jason McGerr of Death Cab for Cutie.
The CD was mastered and features a guest guitar solo by James Murphy! James is most noted for his guitar work with Death, Testament, Disincarnate and two cult classic solo albums. He currently spends most of his time working as a world class engineer out of his Safe House Studio in Central Florida.
As a Band we are collectively working to bring about awareness to important issues both local and universal. Through raising personal consciousness and responsibility to new heights in our day to day lives, we are expressing a positive and challenging perspective through our music, lyrics and our live performances. We are working to spread this message through embracing our collective reality so that we might be able to progress forward together, to leave behind the unhealthy and destructive patterns that we've created for ourselves, which breeds the suffering we constantly experience as a whole that the universe deems literally unnecessary.
"Each human has a unique talent which, when discovered, nurtured, and truly lived, changes our own personal world. By living that pure true self beyond our limited beliefs, we slowly change the world around us into an experience of higher intention, greater freedom and possibility. Humans are conditioned to dissect, judge, separate, and tear down our reality. This fractures or cracks the unified reality of which we are all a part. Seeing unity and nurturing it will heal the cracks of separation and strengthen our relationship with the divine in us all. "
***Drunvalo Melchizedek***

"The new man is the birth of an absolutely fresh man -- unconditioned, without any nation, without any religion, without any discrimination between man and woman, black and white, East and West, or North and South.
The new man is going to be the very salt of the earth, concerned about how to increase the joys of life, the pleasures of life -- more creativity, more beauty, more humanity, more compassion.
We can go through a total transformation: we can create innocent people, loving people, people who breathe in freedom, people who help each other to be free, who are nourishment for each other's creativity and for everybody to be dignified, to be respected.
The new man is the manifesto of a new humanity, one humanity.
This is a great and fortunate moment -- to be in this challenging situation. It is not a situation that is going to destroy the earth, but only the churches and the politicians and those who hold onto the past.
It is a golden opportunity, because if the whole of humanity becomes aware of the roots of the problems, then the solutions are actually very simple..."
