Most religions would not even go near rave culture but
imagine a virtual ministry that springs from one reverends adoration of rave
culture and you have these very words you are reading.
From a Buddhist perspective rave culture would be an
entertainment and also suffering because there is almost always some sort of
drug use involved. Rave culture is almost seen as a gift from the divine due to
the music being without words and perhaps even the beat has been playing since
tribal times in some way or another.
Only in present society is staying up all night and partying
vilified because it goes against the working ethic, for some they only realized
their true soul through music and through meeting other people at all night
parties.
And a paradox is what the EDM movement is, in my time of partying
there was no EDM tag, it wasn’t as corporate, there were parties all over
Vancouver island, Vancouver, Seattle etc and it was a time to forget the real
world for a night.
In myself I saw a gradual decline in my social aspect as the
parties went on, there was a party in particular that I went to, just after I
got kicked out of my house, and did acid and just sat there totally fucked up
for like 10 hours, but then there was also some very beautiful parties as well.
Truth is you got to see the real ugly in people, in oneself,
at raves, fiending for more drugs, not being able to urinate, dancefloors slick
with garbage.
Deep in my mind I was always searching for the little rave
cutie I could call my own, and I searched and searched in vain and never found
him at the raves, it was a super tiring escapade.
There was all types, from people that didn’t even smoke weed
to people shooting heroin but essentially we were all there in a uniting force
being the music. It was easy for ones ego to get carried away in I am with the
deejay or I am VIP but essentially it helped me personally find a type of music
that wasn’t going to enslave you with lyrics.
I don’t even know how many parties I went to, I can’t even
fathom the amount of drugs I did, but one thing for sure is that the parties,
the people, and the vibe changed me forever…opening doors in my soul that still
to this day unite with the astral world and parallel worlds, but I have evolved
into the type of raver that doesn’t go to parties, still the atmosphere of all
those parties lives on with me, truth is I made many many mistakes in the rave
scene, but I was able to learn from them and grow.
It took away my need to be social, all the drugs, and that
is what I miss the most, almost robbed of me in the night, I used to have
hundreds of friends and their drama to keep up with.
Essentially when you are up for the witching hours you fall
victim to the darker energies but out of it all I was able to discover more
about myself and lock in a time in my life where I was able to truly exist as Peace
Love Unity & Respect
Most have moved on from these parties but for a select few
they are learning about the world through these initiations into raver royalty.
Now I rest as the only Virtual Ministry devoted to and represented by rave
culture and I can see the seeds of Catholicism in its infantile stage.
Let me tell you, when you are the sole preacher of the
Church of Techno on earth – it opens up your dreams and dream life into a whole
other world, a world of ESP, A world of OOBE, A world where you are the
ambassador of techno, and it is a very beautiful place.
Techno is very beautiful and so are you regardless if you
like techno or not.
