Enlightened

2012...  met a lot of people;  and was even fortunate enough to encounter myself.  Cruising through LIFE whilst dieting on art , culture and creativity on a crunchy flour business shell, I met myself accidentally, twice - at the corner of adversity and  integrity, and once on reality boulavard.

My epiphany was ; to the question of your life, you are the only answer.  To the problems of your life, you are the only solution. But this alone is not true.  


In order to be happy, we require all kinds of supports to our self-esteem. We are human beings, with both egos'  and self's, therefore the purpose of Gods creation, lies in finding love for both.









There is no unmoving mover behind the YAMBUKA movement.




It is only movement. It is not correct to say that life is moving, but life is movement itself. Life and movement are not two different things. In other words, there is no thinker behind the thought. Thought itself is the thinker. If you remove the thought, there is no thinker to be found.” 









Its true, the man who views the world at thirty-five the same as he did at twenty has wasted fifteen years of his life.



This elementary wonder; Existentialism, the philosophical and cultural movement which holds that the starting point of philosophical thinking must be the experiences of the individual. 





It holds, learning how to operate a soul figures to take time. 





The thing that I believe most, the thing that I believe the most now, is that existentialism is the answer.

Success, happiness, wealth and peace of mind are merely bi-products of deep thoughts and the surgical execution of said thoughts.

Moral and scientific thinking together do not suffice to understand human existence, so a further set of categories, governed by authenticity, is necessary to understand human existence. 




Entrepreneurship has taught me that to be rich one has to experience humbling, red bottom-lines. 

In order to be a leader one has to face fears far worse than a bruised ego can handle. Its necessary to have those with great faith to lean on.

To be too conscious is an illness - a real thoroughgoing illness.  A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it. Its necessary to have those who enlighten you to see the road.

'They' say the journey is the goal, that if you find everything as soon as you look for it, you find it in vain, you look for it in vain.  You cannot fully understand your own life without knowing and thinking beyond your life, thus other people are mirrors. 

In them, you see the reflection of your own self. Sometimes the reflections are distorted, but they are still helpful in coming to terms with yourself.

Often it so happens that you express at length your deepest passion, what you value, only to be ridiculed and ignored in the end. It has not come across to the listener. 

Your eloquent expressions have fallen on deaf ears. At those moments, you feel as if you have been betrayed by the world, and you start secretly licking your wounds. 







with Dan & Chapi

And yet, what is actually happening then is a beautiful self-recognition. You have come to your true self by stumbling on the rocky surface of miscommunication.





Man  is however, least himself when he talks in his own person.  Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth





Mark, Sky & Jack

Man's main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is.  The most important product of his effort is his own personality- yambuka ?








My first and last philosophy, that which I believe in with unbroken certainty, is that YAMBUKA is ALIVE! 








Onwards. Upwards. Always !
