wwwgloberecords.comAs the saying goes, from years back “With BOOZE you LOSE…” And as the song by Ringo Starr “No, no, no, I don’t smoke it no more, I’m tired of waking up on the floor, no, no, no it only makes me sneeze, and then I can’t get up to find the door”.
     No plugs for inter galactic travel HERE, mind you (though I was born in 1953, so figure out what I was doing from age 15? I was looking for something spiritual and the culture at the time said it could be found in special types of mushrooms , a blotter of L.., a toke on a pipe, a roll your own, or hash brown cookies.
¬†¬†¬†¬† Lets face it, even, and especially hookah smoking is an “Animal” enjoyment. So is “Feeding your face” if you aren’t doing it to take the energy from the mineral world who gave to the “vegetable” worlds, who gave to the “animal” worlds, who gave to humans( if you eat meat, cheese, fish etc.) It is possible to skip the animal world, but the mineral, plant worlds must be uplifted by humans and the Holy Sparks of G-D’s Creation returned to their source.
¬†¬†¬†¬† So I won’t make any excuses to all and sundry that smoking hookah is enjoyable, but on a spiritual level, its ONLY an animal need. Hopefully, non of us need it to live and survive. Oy Gevaltd!!
       I find it rather relaxing while I listen to 60-90 minute Yeshiva contemporary lectures, as the Chabad Rabbi who I especially love his recordings says, :
¬†¬†¬†¬†¬† “Its like the old commercial from the 1960’s for cigarettes : “Come for the filter, and stay for the taste”. (Here he is referring to the first stage of stary eyed marriage”).
¬†¬†¬†¬†¬† So,¬† put on a disc, your mp3 mp4 etc., tune in and smoke some hookah while you try to concieve the soul’s flight soaring in the body comming toward it’s source like you physically exhale, and must then return to the demands of the body as you inhale you might have a chance at it. (Can’t call it the purist approach as it is far from that, but “come for the filter and stay for the taste”. If you really taste, you”ll know.
