ABOUT ME

Teolaotauai dot wordpress dot com

I'm in love with the world. I hate the world. I'm in love with people. I hate people. All of these things are true, and yet, they aren't.

Well, I'm quite the philosopher aren't I? Ha!

What I would like to convey to you is that I am Philip San Juan, a person from Hawai'i, who wants to meet you, know you, come to understand you and some new things I never would have been exposed to had it not been for you.

I love languages. I love semantics, semiotics, pragmatics, linguistics, and all of the elements that constitute those areas of experience. While I'm not knowledgeable about those fields per-se I have a strong interest and I feel an aptitude for them.

I love to introspect and examine phenomena, explore and discover. Would you like to meet me?

I also have a strong desire to love people in the best ways possible. To serve them in some way. I believe that we serve each other in every way and every act even when not apparent. What is important for us is to feel and consciously experience this Love, otherwise we remain ignorant to it and potentially mired in misery.

PHILOSOPHY

"Me, I'm approaching my 50th birthday. I'm not going to be on my deathbed one day thinking, Man, aren't you happy you just stayed in the suburbs in your asphalt parking lot and didn't try?" --Dan Gilbert

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love hosting! I currently don't have a place to offer but am looking forward to being able to in the near future.

I am first a foremost a student of this Universe, a disciple of Love, and second, a teacher. However, I believe these go hand in hand. Would you like to learn together?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had 3 couch surfers over so far. Learning tons about boundaries, different types of CS members and what's worth expending energy on and what isn't.

LOVED Couchsurfing when I traveled through Germany 3 years ago.

Interests

I Want To:

Delve into Intent and the exploration of metaphoric magic and understanding, as well as exploring the power of energy manifested through different aspects to bring about results that may bring about positive change and upliftment in one's environ.

Help to alleviate the injustice present in the judicial system.
I want to help create outlets for intense male energy and direct powerful male energy to constructive and consciosuness-raising destructive projects (de-construct structures that do not serve people)

Have working knowledge of and ability to speak multiple languages. Explore the magical/intentful realm of communicating using intent, symbols, energy, emotion

Be with plant consciousnesses and commune with nature. Interact with nature in a synergistic way which raises vibrations

Meditate daily. Feel Baba. Practice yoga, exercise my body and vigorous faculties through exercise.

Create stories. Books, graphic novels, films, spontaneous story-telling, public speaking. Bring positivity and deeply felt creations to consciousness.

Accrue massive resources. Be financially independent. Able to pursue any line of creation I wish with full financial backing.

Being a part of massive transformation. Traveling, being with people and different cultures I love, empathizing with them, whilst taking part in aforementioned aspects which excite and spark my immense passion for Love

Speaking honestly. Allowing freedom of action and thought. Rememberance of Faith. Acceptance of any and all circumstances in the Present.

Opening more and more to love. Giving for the sake of giving. Loving love

Connecting with people of diverse backgrounds and personas. Sparking recognition and love. Brother and Sisterhood. Fostering unity through connecting with diversities. Always speaking for what is true, while respecting that which is also true.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know some things about Hawaii, and some very special places, especially on Kaua'i. I have great respect for the land and the people and culture of Hawaii.

I have some aptitude for thinking and exploring deeply and creatively about meaning and symbols and their relevance on people, including myself.
