When I was 18. 18 years old, I saw for the first time in my life. I saw an image of clarity. I saw a comic strip. a three panel comic strip that, though simple as it seemed, changed me. changed my being, changed who I am. Made me who I am. Enlightened me. The strip, Garfield, the comic strip was new. no more than maybe a month and a half since inception, since. since coming into existence. and there it was before me in print, I saw it. a comic strip. What was it called? Garfield. The story here is of a man, a plain man. He is Jon, but he is more than that. I will get to this later, but first let us say that he’s Jon, a plain man. And then there is a cat. Garfield. This is the nature of the world, here. When I see the world, the politics, the future, the. the satellites in space, and. the people who put them there. You can look at everything as a man and a cat. two beings, in harmony and at war. So, this strip I saw; this man, Jon, and the cat, Garfield, you see. Yes. hmm. It is about everything. This. little comic is, oh, lo and behold. not so little anymore. So yes, when I was 18, I saw this comic. and it hit me all at once, its power. I clipped it, and every day, I looked at it, and I said “Okay. let me look at this here. What is this doing to me? Why is this so powerful?” Jon Arbuckle, he sits here, legs crossed. comfortable in his home, and he reads his newspaper. The news of the world, perhaps. and then he extends his fingers lightly, delicately. he taps his fingers on an end table, and he feels for something. What is it? It is something he needs, but it is not there. And then he looks up, slightly cockeyed, and he thinks. His newspaper’s in his lap now, and he thinks this. Now where could my pipe be? This. I always come to this, because I was a young man. I’m older now, and I still don’t have the secrets, the answers, so this question still rings true, Jon looks up and he thinks. Now where could my pipe be? And then it happens.

Many of you say, “Oh, but I am not blind. I have never been blind,” …But when you truly see you will understand just how truly blind you once were to even think it right to say that you were not blind!
What does a blind man see?? Blackness. Darkness. Blankness. Black darkness. Dark blankness. The absence of things, quite literally no thing. No things. Nothing. Nothings.
So, you see nothing, and I bring you into the light. A cat has your pipe. You’ve been blind, DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS? The cat has your pipe. You can’t fully immerse yourself, you don’t have the light, you don’t have the radiance, the radical light, the radically radiant light of truth, and truths belonging love and nature of light, and loving truthful radiance. So don’t be bold and make bold statements, I know of you. The cat has your pipe. THE. CAT. HAS. YOUR. PIPE. Remember that.

This is my favorite comic. After years of studying and repetition, I have finally realized. This is the Real link to our world and the Garfield world, where every entity is a clone of another, though one characteristic is different. I like to call that characteristic a Label. For example You have Buff Garfield, his label is being Buff, strong, muscular. I’ve written a book about this though it has not released yet.
