The most important thing to know about Hussain, is you have to give his gay crap a chance. A lot of the time he will foist some ridiculous crap on me, and want me to pay attention to it, and it turns out to be a totally crappy waste of time and I hate him for it. But you can't just discount the stuff he presents, because you might end up missing out on a Silver Lesson. I spent about 20 minutes trudging through this insane cockfestival, before Hussain finally presented the Silver Lesson.

Now, let's not get ahead of ourselves. While the MP3 is loading into your browers, please take a moment to note the shitty, 1996-ish qualities of the site, as well as the flowing mane on Christopher M. Hunt. Is it me, or do all these new age cockjobs have the same improbable hair-thing going on? Voluminous red locks, handlebar moustache, huge grin... It's bizzare. But Hunt is the the magic man. The Wolf is where the magic is. His magic is so great, his lessons so silvery, that Cameron knew of him long ago. Cameron's model new age hippie was named “Swami Richard,” the ponytailed huckster, who used flowery gibberish to score with college freshmen. Now, Gola Wolf Richards may not have any hair, but boy howdy does Christopher M. Hunt, and good fucking lord, folks, the man's name is “Richards.” The dead Chinaman was on the money.
Now, let's get to the Silver Lesson. Listen to that shit now, and absorb it. Then come back...
Ok. Great, huh? Let's enjoy together. First off, Gola starts out by saying “speak to edify, not to mystify.” That's how he introduces the insane stream of babble that follows. Now, this whole thing is about “self cultivation based on whole, sage perspectives.” Or maybe it's “(W)hole® sage perspectives.” Regardless, it's sage, and it involves perspectives, that much is clear.
As a service to you, the three or four people that read my blog, I have actually gone and transcribed this bad motherfucker for your reading pleasure...
My name is Gola Wolf Richards, and when I was a boy, my father quoted from the old testament, saying, “speak to edify, not to mystify.” Yet oddly and mysteriously enough, in order to increase profound understanding the thoughtful initiation of many practical judgements depends on symbolic reflections. By concisely clustering multiple ideas and feelings in unison, symbols can effectively suggest larger perspectives for contemplating principles for global citizenship, for self-cultivation based on whole, sage perspectives, for superior human development and whole, sage perspectives for health for sustainable life on earth. When symbolic language is used for universal conflict resolution, unwobbling pivots can be established for a world in crisis. Therefore Silver Lessons For Superior Global Citizenship is an audio essay for conflict resolution evolved through profound contemplation. In response to the world's needs for timeliness and integrity it offers insights to combat universal chaos with whole, sage perspectives. Using just a few incisive statements to address entire spectrums of human complications for thousands of years, from Grimm's Fairy Tales, to Confucious, to Aesop, to Ben Franklin, universal truths have been stated in symbolic language. Likewise, for multiple dimensions of human development Silver Lessons brings global dimensions of individuality into central view and based on universal principles for understanding individual and global conflict resolution, Silver Lessons offsets shallow, less-than-whole potentials in human experience using a little, to say a lot for the good of humanity in general. Therefore, equipped with principles to heal perspectives to realize peace and a sustainable environment, Silver Lessons is offered to effectively educate for global change. Consequently, so long as we never hold growth hostage to how we believe, but learn to believe such that growth is ensured, humanity can effectively reform conflict, by learning how to contemplate for conflict resolution. My name is Gola Wolf Richards and I authored Silver Lessons For Superior Global Citizenship. I am a teacher and Dean of Contemplative Education at MottoCitizens.com a secular seminary for the contemplation of whole, sage perspectives at m-o-t-t-o citizens dot com, in [unintelligable], space, and the universe.
Now I have to analyze. We start off with the admonition to “edify, not to mystify” and then we descend into utterly mystifying gibberish. When you juxtapose that intro with what follows, you really have to start wondering if this is parody. I'm going to guess that it's not, since this guy apparently paid for ad time on AirAmerica radio, and people generally don't spend money on parody, even crazy people with strange D+D character names. So one has to assume that this guy thinks that his sermon really is pegged on “edify” on the “edify to mystify” slider. He sounds genuinely proud of his success in this task, when he smugly proclaims that his audio essay 'uses a little to say a lot,” completely ignoring the painful reality of the situation. For example, what do we call it when somebody says “Yet oddly and mysteriously enough, blah blah blah blah?” We call that 'wordiness.'
I am not one to let mystification stand in the way of my edification, however. Based on numerous readings of this madness, my best paraphrasing is this: Symbolism can describe a better world, I do that in this thing I'm selling, and I do a good job. That's really it, but in the name of edification Gola has built an edifice of words, with a throne atop it for him to sit on. His fundamental point, like all stupid hippies, is “let's just get along.” That's what he's talking about when he refers to using “just a few incisive statements to address entire spectrums of human complications for thousands of years.” It's just his zen version of “come oooooon.” Only he thinks it's so damned revolutionary, that it needs an audio essay, and a great pyramid-like mound of words to do it justice.
I dunno, Swami Richards... Me no rikey!
