Pseudologia fantastica

There's a lot to be said about semantics. When someone says “Karma is going to get you”, I could read the implications any number of ways. Aside from the obvious undertones of self-righteous condemnation, what springs to mind is John Lennon, but alas, I was never much of a fan, nor impressed by his love-in in Amsterdam, especially after learning few things from insiders. It didn't take long before that whole scene struck me as an utter sham. The message would have been clearer if the benefits had gone to the survivors, instead of capitalizing on them just to make a fashion statement of himself...but then that's only typical of the double standards one is expected to live by for so-called social acceptability.

The irony is, he didn't even get the bit about karma right, and henceforth this inane western stigma that it should have something to do with retribution. I would have thought Maharishi Yogi taught them better than that, but then he wasn't exactly some half-starved fakir from the streets of Bombay either. Retribution is something better left to the Rudra, as Hinduism is not all love and light as some would like to believe, but sides with the trickster. Anyone who doesn't know this is likewise a sham, putting on the holier-than-thou, when really they are no less naïve sheeple, aspiring to be shepherd. Ah yes, how I remember that old turn-on and tune-in rhetoric, always telling me to drop out of things I wasn't even a part of, just a passing ship in the night. I didn't see the worth of even playing along with that futile paradox. The minions of the anti-establishment, just as mindless as the establishment. I felt no need to belong either way. I was considered an outcast, when actually I chose to be an outsider, but it makes no difference what you say to that old majority rule of “us versus them”. Third non-party non-partisanship is just too unfathomable to their brainwashed ideals of collective utopia, like who died and made them the god of destiny? Yes, I see you skulking around here on my activity feed. Have you nothing better to do with your life?
