Simulated Stimulation
Written by Shalom George Abraham.
Living a life Artificially Stimulated.
Observe a person today you will see that he lives quite a sheltered life, one that lacks “reality” living a life sheltered inside a pod. God created man so that he would take chances, so that he would go out work hard & play harder rather than live life like an action doll still in its wrapper. Man craves reality – excitement, drama, risk, fear, love, lust, power, pain, force. So how does a man living in a pod become stimulated when he takes no risks and basically leads a life lacking any fulfillment of his true deep desires?
How does man become Stimulated?
Like anything else today he fakes it, instead of taking risks he watches somebody else take risks on reality TV, instead of making money he watches his favorite character on TV make a lot of money, he watches that lovable loser on his favorite show hate his job and he starts convincing himself that he hates his job, instead of going around finding companionship from interesting women he watches men do it on TV, instead of channeling his anger he releases it by beating people up in video games.
Man requires this stimulation much like sexual intercourse but instead of going out and living it, men simulate this deep craving by emotionally masturbating. Stimulation is the yardstick of evolution.
Simulated Stimulation the Threat – Growing generation is un-motivated, un-imaginative and just lack drive because they curb their need for stimulation with this un-healthy practice. Killing their spirit and robbing our times of greatness. They watch television, browse the web & remain entertained 24×7 rather than living & thriving.
Try this: instead of watching Entourage on HBO go out and strive your best to become famous and live the life for real, instead of watching re-runs of Friends go and get an active social life, instead of watching 30 Rock and The Office go out and have fun.

Dreams, Desires, Life
Written by Shalom George Abraham.
Ever had a dream?
A dream you chased after from the beginning, it was the dream that kept you going, the one thing you always wanted, you considered it your destiny, you tried to avoid it and but it chased after you, you sleep it follows you, you wake up and realize the dream is there with you. So you start to chase after it. The path, you start to travel. You go after it ferociously.
You enjoy it, you know the fight is not over but you are confident that you will attain your dream. You train yourself to brush away whatever temporary failure you experience. You focus on the fact that you won’t let the dream go. You etch it in to your heart!
It stayed with me so I shall not let it go. The path started to change me, the boy who chased the dream changed, he comes to realize that it is all beautiful – the path he is taking to the dream, the fight, the blood, the sweat and the tears.
So he changes to attain the dream. The final step to be taken is simple, one step and the dream is his forever. Nobody can take the dream away from him, this finale. The last step will seem simple to anyone other than him. The last step is the one he has trained himself to dread , the thing he feared throughout his life the one thing he cannot comprehend, the last step is to LET GO OF THE DREAM, the final step, all that is needed is to let go. The warrior must pierce his heart and do the thing he was trained never to do.
I think it’s a game god plays, so hard I went after this but it changed me so much. Just so that I could have it that in the end I stopped caring about getting it. How beautiful is that?
“There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it”
Always be in Your Element
Written by Shalom George Abraham.
Be A Lightning Bolt.
Become a lightning bolt: Someone everybody talks about, someone who blurs the lines between work and play. The guy everyone loves to hate. To be such a player the path is simple – become the Lion, the King. Let me explain: The Lion considers hunting his destiny that is what he was made to do so he excels at his game, he enjoys the hunt he plays with the prey and he wins the game.
To become the player / lion you have to know that you are following the right path, that it is your destiny. Realize the fact that what we are doing, what we are going to do, what we have done are all bigger than each of us, that we touch the world in so many sadly not realized by many. The fact that we are fulfilling our “divine destiny” is lost on most. Most people consider what they do as a foreign being; an activity that can be avoided.
“Work that does not need to be done is work that is hated”. The Lion is never faced by anything he is always in his element nothing too big, no challenge too great, no fight lost. Always keep in mind the fact that you are fulfilling divine destiny. Know It! Walk this earth knowing you own it.
Something To Ponder
Written by Shalom George Abraham.
Always see the big picture!
We are made of a very small egoistic vessel that can receive very limited delights in quality and quantity. We chase something, suffer because of its absence, seek it, and the minute we get it, we lose interest. Then come new pains chasing yet new pleasures, and so on until we end our lives in this world, having fulfilled none of our desires.
Extract from “Path of The Kabbalah”
The Art Of Life
Written by Shalom George Abraham.
Machiavellian Principles For Life.
- A prince ought to have no other aim or thought, nor select anything else for his study, than war and its rules and discipline; for this is the sole art that belongs to him who rules, and it is of such force that it not only upholds those who are born princes, but it often enables men to rise from a private station to that rank.
- Necessary it is for a prince to have his foundations well laid, otherwise it follows of necessity he will go to ruin.
- Therefore, he who considers it necessary to secure himself in his new principality, to win friends, to overcome either by force or fraud, to make himself beloved and feared by the people, to be followed and revered by the soldiers, to exterminate those who have power or reason to hurt him, to change the old order of things for new, to be severe and gracious, magnanimous and liberal, to destroy a disloyal soldiery and to create new, to maintain friendship with kings and princes in such a way that they must help him with zeal and offend with caution, cannot find a more lively example than the actions of this man.
- He who believes that new benefits will cause great personages to forget old injuries is deceived.
- Yet it cannot be called talent to slay fellow-citizens, to deceive friends, to be without faith, without mercy, without religion; such methods may gain empire, but not glory.
- A prince ought to live amongst his people in such a way that no unexpected circumstances, whether of good or evil, shall make him change; because if the necessity for this comes in troubled times, you are too late for harsh measures; and mild ones will not help you, for they will be considered as forced from you, and no one will be under any obligation to you for them.
- Opposite desires there arises in cities one of three results, either a principality, self-government, or anarchy.
- There cannot be good laws where the state is not well armed.
- The prince should read histories, and study there the actions of illustrious men, to see how they have borne themselves in war, to examine the causes of their victories and defeat, so as to avoid the latter and imitate the former; and above all do as an illustrious man did, who took as an exemplar one who had been praised and famous before him.
- It is necessary for a prince wishing to hold his own to know how to do wrong, and to make use of it or not according to necessity.
- For something which looks like virtue, if followed, would be his ruin; whilst something else, which looks like vice, yet followed brings him security and prosperity.
- For If he is wise he ought not to fear the reputation of being mean.
