Static of God

This is a montage that I've put together. For me it expresses the beauty of god, the beauty of things we cannot understand - life...death...and where they both came from. Where it starts and where it ends. Because that is god.

Some of you might be confused and take this as a christian message. What you need to know is that balance is the key to everything. The empty spaces are just as bountiful and vast as the filled. God takes many forms, but it lives within all of us and all of the matter that makes up this n(ever)? ending space that we call the Universe.

For example, (in my heart)Jesus is a seed of god because everything that he did was driven by love. He lives in the hearts of many people all over the world today. It gives them something to hold onto, something to motivate and something to inspire. This is all god.

In this life, you can only feel god. You feel it when you see a mother holding her baby. You feel it in the warmth of the sun. God is everywhere, but we'll still spend our whole lives looking for it. That, in itself, is part of god.

But if you're reading this, I have faith that you understand. You have such an open heart and a beautiful soul, my friend.

Love,
B&B

(godspeed you black emperor)

"...prepared in innocence to meet our king of glory
and so we have this
you have it in your secret windows
and you're understanding to understand it and to bring it forth
it takes minute detail
it takes a holy life
it takes emotions
it takes dedication
it takes dedication
it takes a death
and only god can allow it
and you couldn't do it if you're not the seed of god
and so the path through the great corridors
these are corridors unto his perfection
that is which the prophet and the oarman summoned has penetrated
that through this great sea of blackness
that i penetrated through these corridors
and i went through that last segment
where i went through these dark serpentines
i passed through that corridor
where they sat
where they are
and when you penetrate to the most high god
you will believe you are mad
you will believe you've gone insane
but i tell you if you follow the secret window
and you die to the ego nature
you will penetrate this darkness
oh yes there's many a man or woman
that's been put in the insane asylum
when this has happened to them
and they're sitting there today, people think they're insane
but they saw something that's real
and they see it when they're on drugs
the only thing is they see it
not through the light of god, and the way i show you
i show you to see it through the light of god
and the understanding of god
because when you see the face of god you will die
and there will be nothing left of you
except the god-man, the god-woman
the heavenly man, the heavenly woman
the heavenly child
there will be terror under this day of night
there will be a song of jubilee waiting for your king
there will be nothing you will be looking for in this world
except for your god
this is all a dream
a dream in death

and so i went through that window
and the tower of hell and the great serpentines of the highest order
and i went through that when i showed you chart #3
the question is asked and learned and someone who....
...I can give you unspoken words, that are not even in the Bible"

Some of the clips I used belong to...

i really like this video. i'm actually a christian and i believe 100% of the bible but i think this video is really good. maybe not totally true but probably has a lot of truth in it. :)

[birdsandbells]

Thank you =)

I guess we all have to find our own truth.

Beautiful video... From Godspeed You! Black Emperor I suppose?

[birdsandbells]

Yes. Actually when I had first heard this we had found 2 untitled discs out of no where. It was something magical that just landed into our laps for that crazy night. It had forever changed my soul.

[sismian]

Just wanted to say thanks, This video has soul!

[birdsandbells]

=) Well thanks for watching

Not christian, but respectful of christ, this is one of the most touching accounts of a mystical experience I have ever come accross. Don't know where GY!BE got it from, but it says it all!!! This existence is perfect, in all its pain and pleasure and happiness and grief! Nothing is more beautiful than the earth and the sky just extanct before our eyes.

Im convinced mushrooms were used when moses and the followers were eating "manna". It's said that the manna will test you to showing if your one with god. But who knows. For me it was.

1:40 a drink mixed with LSD. The first time I heard this track from the GSYBE album I was on psychedelic mushrooms sitting in my car with a friend (who was also on shrooms) before we went into a mall. Talk about an epiphany! We both sat there talking about the meaning and life then before we went into the mall. From that point on my life was changed, now I see the world through a whole new light. This track takes me back to that moment, kinda makes me anxious.

this is just a little fragment called "chart 3" from Static. (lift disc1)

the fragment of coney island is the beginning of Sleep... (lift disc2)

[WTFO234]

Astonishing. Pure. Thanks for sharing your vision.

Hey, I've heard this version of this song before, and I love this version. I've searched for this song and I can only find another version with an old man talking about Coney Island. I really like this version better, do you know what this version is called? The original one is called Sleep, off of Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven.

Brilliant!
