As an addendum to my last post, I wanted to link to and quote from yet another Mark Morford article which I love. This one’s from about a year and a half ago. The title is: “Hippie Crap Saves The World / Can better orgasms and upping your personal vibe really thwart BushCo idiocy?”

Here’s my favorite passage:

That postcoital buzz? That post-party feel-good vibe? That genuine laughter? That gratuitously kind thing you did for that stranger? That celebration of your body and your sex and love and spirit in spite of mainstream religious puling and finger wagging? That deep meditative solitude? Bingo. That’s the vibe you want. That’s the vibe we all need. That’s the vibration that makes all the difference.

But it’s also the one that takes serious work and determination and you gotta do it every single day and it can only come from you. This sort of luminous divine power is messy and raw and hot and attaining more of it can be the most difficult thing you’ve ever done. But really, what else is there?

Look. Mystics and healers and sages and scientists and philosophers across the spiritual spectrum have known it for millennia: More advanced and enlightened souls — and cultures — vibrate at a higher level, a more bright and rigorous pitch.
