NEVER OLD
Tips on Keeping Mind and Body Young
By Jesse Anson Dawn

 

 

Jesse Anson Dawn (accurately photographed at age 65), author of the national award-winning book Never “Old,” plus The Rejuvenator’s Bible, speaks out about a most stirring subject: how to personally control the unwanted effects of “aging.”

Presently answering the question: “How does the ART of present-time-consciousness affect the aging process?”

Dear Readers,    
As you may have already come to realize, present-time-consciousness is a difficult thing to sustain, especially when it comes to the GIFT of absorbing here-and-now messages that are VITAL.
But of course, with nothing in our consciousness but here-and-now minus memory, we’ve learned nothing. Thus maintaining a past-present balance is crucial for the ability to combine present-time with important memory skills, all while avoiding the neurosis and retrogression of obsessively living in the past.

Indeed, the helpful recall of present-time skills is what this ongoing column is all about, hopefully clarifying and evolving abilities such as “auto-suggestion” (or what I call Inner Suggestion (IS) techniques), a truly effective self-renewal method recently detailed in my March/April Never “Old” column.

And as to what’s being delivered here-and-now, I must clearly emphasize the potential longevity involved with artfully mixing the past with present-time realizations, whereby life becomes a past-present-mixing, revelations-magnet work of art.
All of which raises the question: Does seeking a path of living “conscious life as an art” truly engender health, happiness and longevity?

As I’m again prompted to recall the long list of famous artists who have lived very long lives. For example:
Michelangelo, passing on three weeks before his 89th birthday… or Pablo Picasso
, “revealer-healer of the shattered soul,” passing on at 93… or “senior sensation” Georgia O’Keeffe passing at 98…or the lofty “new ager” Joan Miro launching at 90… or “impressionist extraordinaire” Claude Monet at 86… or poet-author-artist Johann  Goethe, who passed in 1832 at the age of 82, Goethe who said:

“LIFE IS SHORT, BUT ART IS LONG…”

Yes indeed it is, and if my theory about the effects of artistry is true, then what IS it that connects artfulness to longevity?

Clearly, the long and significant list of advanced-age artists is largely due to the ARTISTIC MISSION to SEE, LEARN and EXPERIENCE something TOTALLY WITHIN THE MOMENT.
Although unfortunately, largely because of a lack of conscientious artistry, this planet we live on is artlessly decaying and suffering, especially amid the realms of  healthcare, nature and movies.

And as for the art of writing, most of it has become rather useless escapism, no longer aimed at a path whereby the writer becomes wholly and artistically ONE with the healing spirit of life.

Yes, admittedly, escapist books tend to sell a lot more copies than works aimed at teaching and perhaps beneficially healing the reader. All of which has surfaced a media scenario ruled by the Medical Industry’s monetarily massive grip on TV ads, books and mainstream magazines… a scenario whereby the crucial TRUTH of ENERGY that SELF-HEALS and RENEWS remains trapped amid THE BIGGEST PROFIT-BASED COVER-UP OF ALL TIME…

Sure, it’s a cover up by design, befitting a “public” brain-washed by the blood-money of ugly violence, horror, too much fantasy, plus a very unhealthy excess of rampant greed. But what I want to know is this:
Can this hurtful cover-up ever unveil, uplift, ADMIT and FULLY REALIZE how a lack of conscious artistry badly harms the peace, safety and healthy joy of our world at large?
For if anything, isn’t the GOD of NATURE, NATURAL BEAUTY and NATURAL HEALING truly a MIRACULOUS ARTIST?  

So go ahead and think ARTFULLY and MIRACULOUSLY, live ARTFULLY and MIRACULOUSLY, HEALING and RENEWING ARTFULLY and MIRACULOUSLY!

As again we’re re-minded that the creativity of the UNIVERSE is sustained by powerful and yet mysteriously INVISIBLE forces…
Yes, surely I could go on and on giving examples of what can be accomplished via the art of present-time-consciousness. But as I’ve often indicated, the penetrating rhythm of songs and poems seems to be the most enjoyably artful and TIMELESS way to share an important message.

So here-and-now I’ll let fly my latest attempt at creating simple song-poem-timelessness, giving this one the title of:

PRESENT-TIME REVELATIONS
Know that if you live,
stuck in the past,
you stifle the ability
for your body to last,
as here-and-now
is the ONE TRUE reality,
And only in the present-time
can you activate ABILITY,
For self-renewal is surely
an in-the-now gift,
whereby the past is released,
to allow you to uplift,
helping you stop depressing,
and cease retrogressing,
so the REAL YOU can shine


With self-revival’s blessing
