Bob Dylan Strikes Back at Critics | Music News | Rolling Stone

via Bob Dylan Strikes Back at Critics | Music News | Rolling Stone.

 

Bob Dylan opens up like never before in the new issue of Rolling Stone, on newsstands Friday, September 14th. In the interview with Mikal Gilmore, Dylan covers an incredible range of topics: John Lennon and Bruce Springsteen; what he really thought about the movies I‘m Not There and Masked and Anonymous; being picked up by the police in New Jersey in 2009; and – in a remarkable stretch – his belief that he was “transfigured” around the time of his 1966 motorcycle accident. Dylan also, for the first time, strikes back at critics who have accused him of drawing too much from the work of others. Here’s an excerpt:

I want to ask about the controversy over your quotations in your songs from the works of other writers, such as Japanese author Junichi Saga’s Confessions of a Yakuza, and the Civil War poetry of Henry Timrod. In folk and jazz, quotation is a rich and enriching tradition, but some critics say that you didn’t cite your sources clearly. What’s your response to those kinds of charges? 
Oh, yeah, in folk and jazz, quotation is a rich and enriching tradition. That certainly is true. It’s true for everybody, but me. There are different rules for me. And as far as Henry Timrod is concerned, have you even heard of him? Who’s been reading him lately? And who’s pushed him to the forefront? Who’s been making you read him? And ask his descendants what they think of the hoopla. And if you think it’s so easy to quote him and it can help your work, do it yourself and see how far you can get. Wussies and pussies complain about that stuff. It’s an old thing – it’s part of the tradition. It goes way back. These are the same people that tried to pin the name Judas on me. Judas, the most hated name in human history! If you think you’ve been called a bad name, try to work your way out from under that. Yeah, and for what? For playing an electric guitar? As if that is in some kind of way equitable to betraying our Lord and delivering him up to be crucified. All those evil motherfuckers can rot in hell.

Seriously? 
I’m working within my art form. It’s that simple. I work within the rules and limitations of it. There are authoritarian figures that can explain that kind of art form better to you than I can. It’s called songwriting. It has to do with melody and rhythm, and then after that, anything goes. You make everything yours. We all do it. 
 
For the full interview, pick up the new issue of Rolling Stone.

JAPAN – VERY STRANGE : A thick light pole was witnessed around 8am on August 27th in the middle of the outer and inner shrine of Ise Jingu

The Light Poles

 http://isehakusando-eng-version.blogspot.fr/?expref=next-blog

 

 

     According to one of my blog reader, a thick light pole was witnessed around 8am on August 27^th in the middle of the outer and inner shrine of Ise Jingu, The Grand Shrine of Ise. This photo was taken elsewhere (August 18^th between Osaka and Kobe during a thunder lightening) but it looked just like this high from the sky all the way down to the ground. It was seen for over five minutes.

 

     The informer told me the thick light pole was seen over Yamatohime-no-miya of Ise Jingu for over five minutes. He is a family member of a Shinto priest and has lived in this area for a very long time.  So when he says it was over Yamatohime-no-miya, I could trust that his information is fairly accurate. It feels to me like it was a sign that Goddess Yamato has revived. The light poles that would stand on the grounds of Ise was one of the main theme when I started to write this blog. The things I had written in 2007 are now being witnessed in 2012. I have mixed feelings about the fact that the visions that came into my brain are now actually occurring in this dimension. I am not quite sure if I should be enjoying it or need to be concerned.

 

     In any case, the appearance of the light pole is a sign that the world is changing. The values in this material world are shifting to non-material. It’s becoming more about the heart. The good will would be valued more and more. Eventually we will see a world where people are helping each other. It may take centuries (?)  to see the perfect world but even seeing 0.1% of the changes would give a huge impact to the humans. The new theories in the law of physics will be discovered and reexamined. We will see many changes towards the ultimate world peace.  And at the end, our future will be in an amazing place.

 


     The reason why I am putting up the series of words from my favorite ancient Chinese philosopher Laozi is because these ideas are necessary in order to manifest world peace. There will be no more war and the good willed intelligent people would come up with ideas to save humanity.

 

     “A savior” in my mind, is not one person but the intelligence or knowledge of gathered humans. When the China of today once again utilizes the knowledge of Laozi, they would become an amazing country. The Western countries could also learn so much from his words.

 

     The inner and outer shrines of Ise Jingu are bipolar. As Laozi talked about ying and yang and the Five Elements, I sense the same idea is functioning in these shrines. The outer shrine is connected to the North Star. I sense this shrine is the only sacred place that linked the North Star with accuracy.  In my knowledge the North Star(Polaris) = the heart of Laozi.   

 



    The first step for you is to see the goodness in your daily life and have the sense of gratitude. Have a bigger vision. This will help your area/community to become stable. It is full moon today. The gravity may start to influence us once again.  Take a deep breath and relax. Safe driving.  Raise awareness of disaster prevention.

 

 

Ikashite-itadaite arigato-gozaimasu

 

This weblog is an English translation of a Japanese weblog(http://
blog.goo.ne.jp/isehakusandou) started in May 2007, ranking top in the field of Spirituality in Japan for more than four years . Ten books has been published in a book form in Japan from seven different publishers.

Please read from the beginning. Most important articles were updated in July,2008.

 

 

About the writer

“I have been feeling the other worlds or dimensions from birth. I am seeking a path to awaken humanity.”

“My purpose is to spread the kotodama (vibrational energy of words) of “Ikashite-itadaite Arigato-gozaimasu” (Thank you for letting us live ). This is the Key to open the door to the Right Path.”

“When 5% of the world’s population start to say this daily whenever it is felt to say it or whenever the sun is felt, then the mass consciousness will automatically pick-up the same idea, and start to send gratitude to the god they believe in. This will reach to the ultimate god – The Root. When this happens, the condition of Earth(that is now in crisis) will change.”

On the blog, the writer calls himself Ise-Hakusun-Do Ry-man.

Ry-man is an abbreviation for “salary man”. (In Japan, “business man” is called “salary man.”)

Ise-Hakusun-Do means, the path between Ise and Mt.Haku, Japan. (The writer claims, this is the most important location on Earth at this time )

Ry-man is the most prominent psychic in Japan. He recieved a divine revelation from a Kami

suggesting the “Awareness to send Gratitude to one’s ancestoral spirits and everything around you”. The fact that he is a businessman, employed full time and due to his divine missions, his name or presence cannot be revealed to the public.

 

Thank you for letting us live

A Change Is Gonna Come, Sam Cooke song lyrics

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I’ve been running ever since
It’s been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

It’s been too hard living but I’m afraid to die
Cause I don’t know what’s up there beyond the sky
It’s been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

I go to the movie and I go downtown somebody keep telling me don’t hang around
It’s been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother
And I say brother help me please
But he winds up knockin’ me
Back down on my knees

Ohhhhhhhhh…..

There been times that I thought I couldn’t last for long
But now I think I’m able to carry on
It’s been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Julie Schickling stood out on her porch in West Seattle just after midnight because she couldn’t explain what she was hearing. So she recorded the sound (listen here on West Seattle Blog).

“It gets high and lower, and goes away, then comes back,” said Schickling.

Some of her neighbors report being shaken out of bed by the low rumble, also described as a  growl. In fact, as many people you talk with is about how many different words you heard to describe it.

“It is kind of creepy,” Kay Kirkpatrick, the West Seattle resident said of the sound. “It creeps you out a little bit.”

The neighboring large industries say they aren’t to blame.

Then what is? Something the City of Seattle is looking into.

Some long time residents say they’ve heard this sound before over the years. Others say it’s the first encounter they’ve had with the eerie noise.

“We want to know,” Kirkpatrick said. “Tell us what it is.”
