CURRENT MISSION

I want to start a revolution of consciousness ultimately culminating with a more universally beneficial and symbiotic state of operation

ABOUT ME

I've been doing magic for 5 years, professionally for 3. For the last three years I have been writing a book on existential philosophy. I'm really laid back. Because I get paid to be the center of attention, when I'm off I generally keep to myself, save for a few close friends.

PHILOSOPHY

"Each man is his own judge"
-Shawnee Proverb

"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing" -Socrates

"We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest; a kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. The true value of a human being is determined by the measure and the sense in which they have obtained liberation from the self. We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if humanity is to survive."
-Albert Einstein

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just heard about couch surfing. I think it's a wonderful idea and I want to help in any way I can. More people could afford to travel if they utilized this project.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed a couple times. Offered to host once, but they never came. When I surfed I met some very interesting and friendly people.

Interests

I love just about all music, concerts, clubs, etc. Magic use to be my primary passion but now that just pays the bills. I love to debate, study, and write philosophy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was featured in a documentary for my magic. It was about people who have found a way to be of service with their life's purpose.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love this idea! This is a wonderful aspect of the couch surfing experience. I have so much to share, I would be hard pressed to fit it all in here. As the rest of my profile would suggest I have extensive knowledge of philosophical, metaphysical and esoteric concepts. On a more aesthetic level I have my magic. My joy from magic spawns from the ability to make nearly anyone smile an actual honest smile. Magic has the ability to bring people to a child-like state of wonderment and awe.
