I am a total movie buff and love hundreds of movies - I used to live in LA and work in the movie business so I was used to being in the loop and having access to early releases, indie films, etc...now in Hawaii that is sadly not the case, so it's Netflix all the way. But here are a few movies I could watch over and over again (and have): Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars IV, Groundhog Day, The Fifth Element, Stargate, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, An Affair to Remember

Heroes, Medium, Ghost Whisperer, Grey's Anatomy, CSI, Boston Legal, NCIS, Battlestar Gallactica, Stargate SG-1, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Firefly, Late late with Craig Ferguson, The Dog Whisperer, and everything on the Food Network

Jesus: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself."
Buddha: "Look within. Be still. Free from fear and attachment, Know the sweet joy of the way."
Lao Tzu: "True wisdom seems foolish."
Rabindranath Tagore: "Thou hast made me endless, such is thy pleasure. This frail vessel thou emptiest again and again, and fillest it ever with fresh life..."
Krishnamurti: "I maintain that Truth is a pathless land..."
Ueshiba: "The life force is all-pervasive and its strength boundless. The Art of Peace allows us to perceive and tap into that tremendous reserve of universal energy." "Who is wise? He will realize these things.
Who is discerning? He will understand them." - Hosea 14:9"The kind man does something, yet something remains undone. The just man does something, and leaves many things to be done. The moral man does something, and when no one responds he rolls up his sleeves and uses force." - Tao Te Ching, #38"In the Kali Age there will be many false religionists...And Dharma becomes very weak in the Kali Age, and people commit sin in mind, speech and actions...Quarrels, plague, fatal diseases, famines, drought and calamaties appear...People...are wicked, full of anger...greedy, untruthful...Earth will be valued only for her mineral treasures. Money alone will confer nobility. Power will be the sole definition of virtue. ..This in the Kali Age humankind will be utterly destroyed." -Hindu scripture"Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains...many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved." - Matthew 24:4-13

~b>Surfing the Tao combines powerful information regarding an alternative version of our reality with a simple Way to overcome its daily trials.
"Surfing the Tao: A Revolution of Free Will" is available from Authorhouse, Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
“Surfing the Tao” is a phrase created in an attempt to nutshell what could be the most important aspect of spiritual truth, or the Way of Life. A reader once sent me a great quote, “It is a lot like surfing... you catch a wave by being prepared, timing your move and having your board in position. Like surfing, you have some control, but the Flow has all the power.” Since I live in Hawaii the analogy seemed appropriate; and indeed there is a certain zen to the sport.
If you’re just hearing about “Surfing the Tao” here are a few bullet points. It’s not about any particular religion; it’s about how we choose to live each moment, although it does contain spiritual concepts from all corners of the world. We can argue endlessly about who is ‘right’ – but in so doing we could be missing the point. Each person has their own path to walk, and we all find truth in our own ways. However, as our greatest sages have remarked, eventually our paths will all converge on the Great Path.
Our great spiritual teachers have all encouraged love in the search for enlightenment. Many have defined “God” (or Tao, Father, Force, Beloved, Brahman, Great Spirit; whatever) as that flowing consciousness of love, the goal being to become “one” with this Force. So the basic idea of “Surfing the Tao” is choosing love for direction of your actions. The truth is simple – not easy, but simple. Still your mind and instead listen to your spiritual nature, that which is connected to the Tao, the Force. Allow the Tao to flow through you, and hop on for the ride of your life. Use various methods – you can use a long board or a short board, right-footed or left, but you’re still allowing the wave to carry you.
Surfing is an individual sport, and Surfing the Tao is a silent, inner revolution of spirit. The outer world will not provide the whole answer. Truth is within you; amplify the Voice by tuning in to love. Then, one person at a time, we can change our reality to one of peace and harmony.
.."> Articles and poetry at Surfing the Tao.com - more at Surfing the Tao Blog I am hesitant to admit that a profound spiritual experience propelled me to start writing, because it wasn't the experience that was so unique, but what I discovered when I looked back out into the world. I realized that a massive Machiavellian misdirection by our world's belief systems had hijacked our ability to see truth within ourselves. Instead, people were either ignoring the spiritual altogether, or simply swallowing what others had set before them, without further thought. The human race was losing its connection to its Spirit, and therefore its ability to discern the real truth, especially in terms of the strange and unexplained.
"The Master observes the world, but trusts his inner vision." -Lao Tzu
Ever wonder if there was a book that put it all together – ‘God’, UFOs, secret societies, sacred science, inconsistencies in the Bible, similarities to other spiritual teachings, Jesus, the end of the world, the power of love, the frequency of being – plus a Way to live through it all in peace? Maybe you have a handle on it all – but know someone who doesn’t? Surfing the Tao is an attempt to nutshell all the strange goings-on in our world together with a Way to do something about it. Don’t lose your faith; crystallize it with a higher perspective - Surf the Tao!
"Because it is sometimes so unbelievable the truth escapes becoming known." -Heracleitus
You may remember the story of how the devil and a friend of his were walking down the street, when they saw ahead of them a man stoop down and pick up something from the ground, look at it, and put it away in his pocket. The friend said to the devil, "What did that man pick up?" "He picked up a piece of the truth," said the devil. "That is a very bad business for you, then," said his friend. "Oh, not at all," the devil replied, "I am going to help him organize it." -Krishnamurti..
Who I'd like to meet: "Jesus said, 'My kingdom is not of this world...my kingdom is from another place.'" - John 19:36 "When rich speculators prosper while farmers lose their land; when government officials spend money on weapons instead of cures; when the upper class is extravagant and irresponsible while the poor have nowhere to turn - all this is robbery and chaos. It is not in keeping with the Tao." - Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching "Few cross over the river.Most are stranded on this side.On the riverbank they run up and down.But the wise person, following the Way,Crosses over, beyond the reach of death...Rejoicing greatly in his freedom,In this world the wise personBecomes themself a light,Pure, shining, free. -Buddha "At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress which as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then...Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. But you, Daniel, close up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge." - Daniel 12:1-4 Look at where my Friends are! MyGeoSpots Map

Dear Surfing the Tao: Thank you for YourFriendship. My eight-year-old-peace-activist son Axil's quest for World Peace Before 2021 is gaining momentum! I'm so proud of him. Please embrace him AND his song "World Peace Before 2021" which he sings beautifully. His performance can be seen on MySpace, his webpage www. worldpeacebefore2021. com and/or YouTube (by searching his name Axil Kollist.) It is my intention to post a new video of him singing his song every few months so people can watch his talent grow as impressively as the momentum for his quest! I'm sharing two photos with you. The first is of my son distributing his free world peace bumperstickers and the second photo is of him singing his song “World Peace Before 2021” at Maui's Martin Luther King Jr. Peace Day Festivities in January 08. Best regards, Axil Kollist’s mom
