Strange Days Have Found Us (Hear me talk of sin and this is it)

To the biggest part of the amateurs and mainly to the listeners of rock-music the content of lyrics is secondary. To the major part of the youngsters it is important that rock is the background music for boozing, and displaying is groovy. Most of the songwriters express only their shallow emotions, missing sex, thirst or some other nonsense. Sometimes songwriters also describe what they have suffered, concretely seen or heard, as for instance the sharp-eyed Ray Davies, skillfully in his songs "A Well Respected Man" and ”Dedicated Follower of Fashion”.

A few rhyme makers, like Bono, are willingly preaching ("Pride - in the name of love"), but it's clear that there are also such  songwriters as the Johns;  Lennon ("All You Need is Love"), Fogerty  ("Bad Moon Risin") and Kay ("Born to be Wild"), who are describing, at least at times, in their songs and often maybe only subconsciously, what they are dreaming of and sometimes they are even painting visional sights, as Neil Young, who said, when he told about making the album "Sleeps With Angels" on TV, that the words of the song "My Heart" just "fall from the sky:"

Down in the valley
the shepherd sees
His flock is close at hand
And in the night sky
a star is falling down
From someone's hand

When dreams come
crashing down like trees
I don't know what love can do
When life is
hanging in the breeze
I don't know what love can do

My heart, my heart
I've got to keep my heart
It's not too late,
it's not too late
I've got to keep my heart

My love, I will give
to you, it's true
Although I'm not sure
what love can do

Somewhere someone
has a dream come true
Somehow someone
has a dream come true

But then there is this junkie nutball and booze artist, mother fucker Jim Morrison. What strange happenings is he telling about in his songs? It is commonly argued that Morrison got the idea to name The Doors from one line ...If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite... from the poem "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell" by William Blake.  Because people who have a limited education, a narrow view and after wisdom, have ended up to a solution which  first comes up in their minds. They have connected Morrison as a drug user to Aldous Huxley’s book named "The Doors of Perception" (1954), which has a testimonial part about taking drugs like mescaline, which causes hallucinations. Where else does a young hellion and troublemaker of his school class get influence than from the work of for instance Baudelaire, Blake, Rimbaud, Nietzsche, Poe, Celine, Castaneda, Burroughs, Kerouac and Ginsberg?

But when Jim says "There Are Things Known, and Things Unknown, and In Between Are the Doors", he is not speaking anything at all about cleansing or appearing as Blake in his poem. No, the doors to Jim are just the doors between "known" and "unknown", between two other sides, between different realities. Of course you can argue that Jim was "cleaning" his mind with alcohol and drugs, but then you don't know what Jim himself wrote very clear in his poem "Road Days" (Jim Morrison, Wilderness, Penguin books 1988):

Being drunk is a good disguise. I drink so I can talk to assholes.

So if you base your conclusion on the material which you can find in front of your nose or on grimy delusional visions, you’ll forget blissfully that you can get totally lost. Then it will never occur to you that Jim could bluff his listeners - and assholes. For the word "door" has also been used in the past in completely different connections and less flattering to The Lizard King’s reputation and street credibility:

Jim and crucifix

Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep... I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture (John.10:7,9)

Well, now one smart egghead can point out that Jesus did not say "doors" but "door", and another genius know-it-all noodlehead may snarl: "What are you chattering about? You talk nonsense, anyway Morrison was not any Holy Roller." Well, probably no one has argued that Jim Morrison is a retard, but how do you explain this:

Persian night, babe
See the light, babe
Save us!
Jesus!
Save us!

You can find these lines, where Jim was shouting Jesus to save us, in the song "When the Music is Over", a song which many people think is the first political song of The Doors. Although Jim was in those days (1966-1967), when he was creating the text, so deeply alcoholized that he had seen little green men around, or was he? What did Jim really mean then with them who were whispering in his ears and about whom he tells in the same "When the Music is Over" song:

Come back, baby
Back into my arm
We're gettin' tired of hangin' around
Waitin' around with our heads to the ground
I hear a very gentle sound
Very near yet very far
Very soft, yeah, very clear
Come today, come today

What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her
Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn
And tied her with fences and dragged her down

I hear a very gentle sound
With your ear down to the ground
We want the world and we want it...
We want the world and we want it...
Now
Now?
Now!

How stupid! Jim Morrison is not shouting that he, his friends or the next generation wants the world, now! No, Jim is simply telling what he hears when he puts his ear down to the ground! Difficult to understand? And this is important! In the sixties this gentle "love" message, about which Jim is telling, was totally unknown! The message had not yet been shared in any painted or recorded form to the public. Whereas nowadays, when we have many versions of this ‘’whispering’’, mainly published in the 1990’s. Therefore, Jim himself must have heard the whispering he pictured, not from Ginsberg, Huxley or any Blake, not from anybody but - as mentioned before - straight from the whisperers.

And the common thread which connects all these presently known messages is that humans have used their free will wrongly and hurt mother Earth badly ("Not to touch the earth"). The human race has to change its behavior just now – immediately - or it will be destroyed. A change of behavior, which means giving up free will and replace it with a collective will, must happen voluntarily, with love, no one forces you. Besides, the messengers are painting devils on the wall, scaring you with threats of the disastrous end of the world. And these strangers in any case plan to live on earth, anyway without us, if we don't want to make a change. For example in the book of John E. Mack "Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens" (Pocket book, Simon & Schuster 1995) you can find the following notes, first John E. Mack himself, then Scott and finally Sara are telling:

Tibetan leaders, the lamas saw alien beings as spirits that have become upset by the invasion and destruction of the earth's environment... (page 67)

With considerable resistance Scott admitted that the intention of the aliens was to "live here" (on Earth) but without us, unless "humans change", in which case "we might be able to live together." (page 104)

This process of species connecting (possible) involves "tremendous, tremendous, tremendous" love. (page 213)

Was Jimbo a real bimbo – a UFO believer? But before you label Morrison as a kook and laugh pretty free, tell me why all the religions, also Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam are teaching to us exactly the same "give up your free will" lesson as Aliens, only with a bit variant words. Look, here are some examples:

Thy kingdom come. 

Thy will be done,

On earth as it is in heaven. (Lord's Prayer)

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart— These, O God, You will not despise. (Psalms 51:17) I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart. (Psalms 40:8)

*

Learn to obey, you who are but dust! Learn to humble yourself, you who are but earth and clay... Learn to break your own will, to submit to all subjection! Be zealous against yourself! Allow no pride to dwell in you, but prove yourself so humble and lowly that all may walk over you and trample upon you as dust in the streets! (Thomas Kempis, The imitation of Christ, book 3, chapter 13) The consist in offering yourself with all your heart to the divine will, not seeking what is yours either in small matters or great ones, either in temporal or eternal things.... (Thomas Kempis, The imitation of Christ, book 3, chapter 25)

'My child, renounce self and you shall find Me. Give up your own self-will, your possessions, and you shall always gain. For once your resign yourself irrevocably, greater grace will be given you. How otherwise can you be mine or I yours unless you despoiled of your own will both inwardly and outwardly. The sooner you do this the better it will be for you, and the more fully and sincerely you do it the more you will please Me and the greater gain you will merit. I have said to you very often, and now I say again: forsake yourself, renounce yourself and you shall enjoy great inward peace. Give all for all. Ask nothing, demand nothing in return. Trust purely and without hesitation in Me, and you shall posses Me. Strive for this, pray for this, desire this - to be stripped of all selfishness and naked to follow naked Jesus, to die to self and live forever for Me. Then all vain imaginations, all wicked disturbances and superfluous cares will vanish. Then also immoderate fear will leave you and inordinate love will die. (Thomas Kempis, The imitation of Christ, book 3, chapter 37 - Book is the second most Christian read book after Bible)

*

The innermost demon, the one anchored most deeply within us, is the notion of a separate self, the greediness of 'me'... Its two root errors - apprehension of self and self-love - are the worst that we can have... The real practitioner must be a soldier who ceaselessly combats his or her internal enemies, chief of which is this belief in self', and which all others surround and follow... It is only in freedom that the mind can discipline itself. (Dalai Lama XIV, Essential Teachings, Souvenir press,  1999, pages 81-82, 57) Buddhist don't use word 'free will' but words 'I', 'self', 'ego' and 'mind'!

When for all internal and external things. The concept of 'I' and 'mine' has perished, All greed for existence will cease, And this cessation, births will cease. With the elimination of karma and emotional impurities, we will be liberated. Karma and emotions arise from false perceptions, Which in turn arise from elaborations about inherent existence, And these will be eliminated by the view of emptiness. (Dalai Lama XIV, Essential Teachings, Souvenir press,  1999, pages 116-117)

*

...whoever submits his face in Islam to Allah while being a doer of good will have his reward with his Lord. (2:112) And no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve (16:81). Thus does He complete His favor upon you that you might submit [to Him]. And return [in repentance] to your Lord and submit to Him before the punishment comes upon you (39:54); then you will not be helped. And of the people is he who sells himself, seeking means to the approval of Allah. And Allah is kind to [His] servants (2:207). (Koran)

And the similarities with God and aliens don't stop here. When Moses is giving orders to the Israeli in the desert Of Sinai he says to the crowd:

Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. For the land is defiled; therefore I visit the punishment of its iniquity upon it, and the land vomits (pukes) out its inhabitants. (Lev.18:25-26)

Blue bus

And Ed is telling in John E. Mack's Book:

"Convulsions of the earth, almost like puking (vomiting) us off, or shunning us off... They will get rid of part of us." (page 61)

Is history repeating itself? In these teachings of religious movements and in a few rhymes of ‘’When the Music is Over’’ there is enough to think about for them who have from their infancy been satisfied with a plastic truth, which the establishment has thrust upon them with the baby bottle, school teaching, politicians and media. It's sure best for those who have numbed themselves to continue boozing. Others – what do you say about the following lines of the song "Strange Days":

Hear me talk of sin
And you know this is it

What the Hell - sin! This is the last thing that is missing here. No way, The Lizard King did not read the Bible and definitely the gospel of John, or?  Morrison is babbling to us, the believers of evolution, about sin and he specifically highlights that you know this is it! Who you? What it?

Before we go on, you have to remember that Jesus was not a Christian and secondly, he did not found any church, neither did he collect money from the parishioners. He advised you to pray in, not so that someone sees you, not to mention in front of crowds. Jesus attacks verbally the religious leaders of Jews, the Pharisees:

You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. (John 8:44)

So Jesus sees the priests of Jews as servants of Satan. And note: that father of the Jews, whom Jesus named as Devil, is also the God of every Christian! And this is not all, Mr. Mojo Rising gives us more to think over when he sings in the ‘’Soft Parade’’ album, in the song "Tell all the people":

                               
 Tell all the people that you see 

Follow me
Follow me down
Tell all the people that you see
Set them free
Follow me down

You tell them they don't have to run
We're gonna pick up everyone
Come out and take me by my hand
Gonna bury all our troubles in the sand, oh yeah

Tell all the people that you see
We'll be free

Who set them free? Who must tell? Who pick up everyone? Probably not, but was Jim living around day and night in those days in deep alcohol and drug stupor, or was he pointing to next following three verses:

And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself.” (John.12:32) And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John.8:32) Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed. (John.8:36)

No one else in the world ever, even the most rotten beatnik crackpots, fantasizes to set free all the people of the world. What about the following fascinating rhymes in "Five to one" and "Land ho" songs, with which Jim can point at the same time both a) to the Bible; He must increase, but I must decrease (John 3:30) b) to the mythology of Hopi- and Navajo Indians and Aztecs, according to which the fourth world is near to the ending and the fifth is to a beginning.

Five to one, baby
One in five
No one here gets out alive, now

The old get old
And the young get stronger
May take a week
And it may take longer
They got the guns
But we got the numbers
Gonna win, yeah

*

If I get my hands on a number five
Gonna skin that little girl alive.
If I get my hands on a number two
Come back home and marry you
Marry you, marry you. all right!

When Jim points to the lores of Indians, which have travelled from mouth to mouth, from generation to generation for thousands of years, he steps into the world of the shamans without the listeners realizing it. To the Shamans doorways to the other side, the other reality, is not any achievement of drug steams, but the solid truth, the world of spirits, where the shadow soul of the shaman always seeks, when needed, the divine knowledge.

Made the scene
Week to week
Day to day
Hour to hour
The gate is straight
Deep and wide
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side

Everybody who knows even little about the history of The Doors, surely signify the song "Shaman's Blues", but they have never understood that Jim sings in it about the Savior of the World:

The End - Hollywood bowl - Jim and crucifix

Did you stop to consider?
How it will feel
Cold, grindin' grizzly bear jaws
Hot on your heels

Do you often stop and whisper?
In Saturday's shore
The whole world's a savior 

Who could ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever
Ask for more?

Do you remember?
Will you stop?
Will you stop?
The pain

It seems like the book "Doors of the perception" was nothing else but only an excellent scene, a smokescreen for Jim to hide what he really was telling about, what message he wanted to send to the future. Or who would want to listen to or buy records in the sixties by the rebellious rock and roll band who are singing about Jesus?  And mainly because this version of the story was unheard of before and even now hardly anyone understands what the question is about. And then the next tale about childhood, which Jim told himself ("Peace Frog", "Dawn's Highway"):

Me and my -ah- mother and father - and a
Grandmother and a grandfather - were driving through
The desert, at dawn, and a truck load of Indian
Workers had either hit another car, or just - I don't
Know what happened - but there were Indians scattered
All over the highway, bleeding to death.

So the car pulls up and stops. That was the first time
I tasted fear. I must a' been about four - like a child is
Like a flower, his head is just floating in the
Breeze, man.
The reaction I get now thinking about it, looking
Back - is that the souls of the ghosts of those dead
Indians...maybe one or two of 'em...were just
Running around freaking out, and just leaped into my
Soul. And they're still in there.

When Jim remembers the freaking out of ghosts of the Indians in the desert highway, he therefore claims that there are ghosts (spirits). And Jimbo repeats his opinion of deathless among other things in his poems "An American Prayer", "Waiting for the Sun" and "Riders on the Storm":

We live, we die & death not ends it

*

This is the strangest life I've ever known.

*

Girl ya gotta love your man
Girl ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah

What about the ending of the fourth world? What is Jim saying for example in his songs "The End of the Night", "The End", "Strange Days", "When the Music is Over", "Five to One" and "Ship of Fools"?

Realms of bliss, realms of light
Some are born to sweet delight
Some are born to the endless night
End of the night, end of the night

*

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end

*

Strange days have found us
Strange days have tracked us down
They're going to destroy
Our casual joys

*

So when the music's over
When the music's over
Turn out the lights
Well the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend
Until the end 

*

Your ballroom days are over, baby
Night is drawing near
Shadows of the evening crawl across the years
Ya walk across the floor with a flower in your hand
Trying to tell me no one understands
Trade in your hours for a handful dimes
Gonna' make it, baby, in our prime

*

The human race was dying out
No one left to scream and shout.
People walking on the moon
Smog will get you pretty soon.

Everyone was hanging out
Hanging up and hanging down
Hanging in and holding fast
Hope our little world will last.

Jim with crucifix at Hollywood bowl - The End

And what is the divine knowledge, which Jim was weaving in his poems, a line there, a line here, “It may have been in pieces, but I gave you the best of me”, as he himself said just a little before his death. Is Morrison pointing to the heart of the question which solves our existence in the poem "Love Hides"?

Love hides in the strangest places.
Love hides in familiar faces.
Love comes when you least expect it.
Love hides in narrow corners.
Love comes to those who seek it.
Love hides inside the rainbow.
Love hides in molecular structures.

Love is the answer.   

            

And before you get a heart attack, in his song ‘’L’America’’ Jim Morrison points straight to the solvers of the question and to Aquarius, rainman's coming to teach you who you really are:

I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads for a pint of gold

C'mon people, don't ya look so down
You know the rain man's comin' ta town
Change the weather, change your luck
And then he'll teach ya how to find yourself
L'America

Friendly strangers came to town
All the people put them down
But, the women loved their ways
Come again some other day
Like the gentle rain
Like the gentle rain that falls

Do you know we are ruled by TV - and pigs

Maybe we must reconsider the whole production of the Doors afresh. Mind you, Jim has written, sung and interpreted songs and even inside one song in the perspective of two different persons (Jim claimed having an Indian soul inside him since childhood). And it looks like we haven’t got the faintest idea about what kind of person Jesus was and what kind of chaos and disorder he spread out in Judea 2,000 years ago. Death penalty was not passed to a shepherd of the lambs, of whom the Christians give glossy pictures to children in Sunday schools, or? Jesus must have been a real danger to God-fearing nitpickers, the upper class of Judea as Jim was a danger to the religious conservative war hawks and the avaricious establishment of America. Get the picture!

And surprise surprise, in his song "My Heart" Neil Young also sings about shepherd, flock and love, which all point to the words of the Nazarene found in the gospel of John:

But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. (John.10:2) I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. (John.10:11) Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. (John 15:13)

Anyway don't rejoice yet. Let's still tie some pieces a little bit together. Jim sings/talks in "Lions in the street", "Awake Ghost song", "The Celebration of the lizard" and "Someday soon" songs:

He went down South and crossed the border
Left the chaos and disorder
Back there over his shoulder
One morning he awoke in a green hotel
With a strange creature groaning beside him

*

Is everybody in?
Is everybody in?
Is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to begin.
WAKE UP!
You can't remember where it was
Had this dream stopped?

Awake.
Shake dreams from your hair
My pretty child, my sweet one.
Choose the day and choose the sign of your day
The day's divinity
First thing you see

A vast radiant beach and cooled jeweled moon
Couples naked race down by its quiet side
And we laugh like soft, mad children
Smug in the wooly cotton brains of infancy
The music and voices are all around us.

Choose they croon the Ancient Ones
The time has come again
Choose now, they croon
Beneath the moon
Beside an ancient lake

Enter again the sweet forest
Enter the hot dream
Come with us
Everything is broken up and dances.

*

Wake up!
You can’t remember where it was.
Had this dream stopped?
The snake was pale gold
Glazed & shrunken.
We were afraid to touch it.
The sheets were hot dead prisons.

And she was beside me.
Old, she’s numb.
Her dark, red hair,
The white soft skin.

*

Someday soon
Familiar faces will fill your living room
Run, slash out their lizard tongues
You're not getting young

And I hate to remind you but you're going to die

Hey man, you want girls, pills, grass? C'mon.....

With a powerful paintbrush, Jim is painting the radiant beach in the cool light of a jewel moon, strange creatures, glassy shrunken skin, a double tongued golden pale snake, beings which we were afraid to touch. No one here gets out alive! And those who have got the love message with the infernal pictures, tell that the whisperers are among other things extraterrestrials resembling reptiles (reptilians). Read in John E. Mack’s book "Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens" how Jerry, Sara, Paul and then Carlos tell about their encounters in the 1990’s:

They are so full of lies... The being's face hade "like devil eyes or something... Their eyes. I just hate 'em... It's just too...i don't know. It's like someone just crawled inside you and knew everything about you... I just kinda lose myself. and he kinda just gets in there and I just don't like it. (pages 125, 136, 131, 134)

The head was the most prominent part of the body and was "shimmery," looking "reptilian," almost "snakelike, serpentlike" and quite elongated. (Page 212)

The nose was "flat, like an ape," and the mouth seemed to have "scales around it, like plates on his lips." This reptilian form was very intelligent, a form of energy that spanned up that point, and it did very well. (page 223, 228)

Their eyeballs or l lenses are transparent so it seems black to people in the dark. Behind the "goggles" Carlos has seen a vertical slit like pupil, which he describes as catlike (snakelike), and quite wide circular iris "with browns and reds moving around." (pages 349-350)

According to Mack, his patients had experienced the presence of reptiles and both Jerry and Carlos had even seen the eyes like a snake’s, therefore they must have been at least hypnotized by the music of the Doors, or what? And all The Doors fans believe that Jim sung these lines in "The End" about Oedipus:

Maitreya - Ancient gallery

He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...I want to...fuck you

Snakes Ashtar and fake Jesus - Ancient gallery

It looks like the fans make a huge mistake, as Ed and Peter tell in Mack's book:

They can "float around", he said and "change the laws of future", by which mean they can change shape and form. (page 62)

What frightens me, "he said," is that they took human form when they come to me... It frightens me that anybody I could walk into on the street could be a fucking alien or something." (page 318)

If the creatures can take any form they want or it's needed, they can take faces where ever and which gallery they want, as Jim is telling just lines before:

Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...he's old, and his skin is cold....

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery

And one more thing; Jim Morrison recorded this following poem 7.12.1970 (Village tapes):

Jim and crucifix

                             

For those people who died

for Nirvana

for the heavenly creed

for you, for me.

These lines are written

to convey the MESSAGE...

Believe.

Things more horrible

than war

Things out of the tales

Great beasts

Suffering extinction.

Is Jim just driveling or is the yellow inner sleeve of the album "L.A. Woman" with  a crucifix - not on a cross, but on a telegraph pole, an illustrated, metaphorical message?

Don't get too much excited and suffocate. You can't put Morrison in a straight jacket and send him to a nut factory, even if you wanted to. It is useless to wear out your own brain cells because of this kind of humbug. Somebody has planned a skilful worldwide pyramid swindle, only to pass the time, to cheat the gullible. Or then this is a cunning conspiracy of Opus Dei or the Knights of the Temple, to shove the Bowl of Grail down The Lizard King’s throat, bottoms up.

As long as everybody sleeps, the end comes sure by itself

Yaqui-witch in Carlos Castaneda's book Journey to Ixtlan 

The Village tapes, Jim Morrison recorded this poem 7.12.1970

Jim swims in the Tahquitz Canyon creek in Palm Springs

For those people who died

for the heavenly creed
for you, for me 
These lines are written
to convey the MESSAGE... 

Believe
Things more horrible
than war
Things out of the tales
Great beasts
Suffering extinction

The shocking message of Jim Morrison is going to be released soon!

Jim was arrested by airhead pigs in New Haven 9.12.1967

You have been told that Jim Morrison got the idea to name The Doors from one line ..."If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite..." from the poem "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell" by William Blake. In song "Five to One" all the Doors fans believe that with the word "numbers" Jim means a crowd of young people, or in his song "The End" he is singing about Oedipus complex!

All these arguments are only illusions and beliefs! Or have you ever thought or even wondered, whom Jim Morrison is speaking about when he sings in the song "When the music is over" about a very gentle sound, who is whispering to his ear: "We want the world now!" 

Are you ready to encounter the truth? Read - the shocking message of Jim Morrison is going to be released soon (week 8)!
