About Me |

I guess you could say, I am...not a real Rishi, but I think can teach something through my music. I don’t want followers, just fans:) Rock on people. "follow me he said, but he walked behind" -Leonard Cohen... MY BANDS: Furthest Point North The Shiva Zoo: Richie the Rishi: I: understanding not the great mystery of life, feeling alone and separated from others, II: the pain of mother earth (birth moans and death groans) III: the great trinity: self/other/god trying to express itself, picked up my guitar and walked round the himalayas...came back with a sitar too... sang down desert dunes, drank mountains, and cloud men shined above the radioactive spawn of rainbows...the swimming through trees i breathed. Inspiration is not a commodity, it comes from the highest parts of your soul, which mingle with the Godhead in etheric dna spirals of eternal bliss. I will die singing the song. (i think people get a glimpse of truth through religion, otherwise they wouldn’t even exist) despite what is bad about them (the dogmatic deserata), which keep them from experiencing divine reality, and locked into patterns of ego-reinforcement, racial exclusivity, judgmentalism, and hate (in other words, they take the baby along with all the filthy bath water) Save The World - One Click At A Time!
