Our website features numerous songs by Pho\u2019, the rising, radical, super smart, new voice of hip hop. We\u2019re not looking for believers or fools. We\u2019re seeking Attitude, Creativity, Radicalism\u2026fresh voices for a fresh world. Do you have anything worth saying? Is it time for your voice to be heard? If all the smartest, strongest, most imaginative and creative people are on our side, who can defeat us? If you have it in you to become God then now is the time for you to hear the cosmic call of the divine, the sacred and transcendent Music of the Spheres.<\/p>\n
******<\/p>\n
The search is on for world-historic figures. Who are the people who will finally end the reign of the Old World Order? Who will bring the human race out of bondage? Who will break the tyranny of the old masters?<\/p>\n
\u201cWolves and sheep,\u201d is one of the OWO\u2019s favourite expressions. They are the wolves \u2013 the predators \u2013 and the rest of us are the sheep \u2013 their prey.<\/p>\n
If God didn\u2019t want them sheared, he wouldn\u2019t have made them sheep.<\/p>\n
The world is the way it is because the sheep have always allowed themselves to be fleeced. They have let themselves be swindled out of equal opportunities. Every person born into an average family soon notices an immense tower stretching far into the sky. This is the Tower of Privilege where the wolves live, where they look down on the endless flocks of sheep and herds of cattle, all the suckers and victims, those who didn\u2019t fight back when their chances in life were stolen from them.<\/p>\n
Isn\u2019t it time to smash that hateful tower?<\/p>\n
The world needs talented, creative, energetic, determined, smart and ambitious people, eager to replace the Old World Order. Cynics, skeptics and negative-minded people will seek to sabotage any new system. Who needs them? There\u2019s nothing worse than the people who stand on the sidelines, sniping and carping, trying to sabotage any attempt to bring back humanity from the dead, or rather the undead since the wolves have turned the sheep into bleating zombies, in which no signs of life ever register.<\/p>\n
Weakness, self-pity, lack of ambition, laziness are not acceptable. Nothing will ever change while those \u201cqualities\u201d predominate.<\/p>\n
Who is capable of changing things? One person who has stepped up to the plate is Pho\u2019 \u2013 Photon.<\/p>\n
Photon isn\u2019t one of the sheep. Photon is on the move. Photon is ascending. Photon is reaching \u201cescape velocity\u201d.<\/p>\n
The OWO are terrified of people like Photon because they know that such people can topple them from their high tower.

PHO\u2019 (PHOTON)<\/p>\n
\u201cIn Hoc Signo Vinces.\u201d (In this sign you shall conquer.)<\/p>\n
This Latin phrase was first used by the Roman Emperor Constantine, and later by the Knights Templar. It has been said that this mysterious order, condemned for heresy, was the inspiration for the Jedi Knights of Star Wars. The Templars were in fact a military branch of the Illuminati, and used many signs, including the skull and crossbones.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn Hoc Signo Vinces\u201d is usually associated with the Sign of the Cross and, ostensibly, was used in this fashion by the Templars. In fact, as Gnostic Illuminists, the Templars rejected the Christian Cross. The sign they most venerated was the skull and crossbones, associated with \u201cBaphomet\u201d \u2013 Simon Magus, the most revered Grand Master of the Illuminati.<\/p>\n
******<\/p>\n
Many are called.
\nFew are chosen.
\nFewer still are self-determined.
\nAnd only the rarest, only the highest, create themselves.<\/p>\n
Pho\u2019 (Photon) is a student of the mind, a hip hop artist and a sociopolitical activist. This rising, radical, super smart and visionary \u201cemcee\u201d was born and raised in New Jersey\u2019s Philadelphia suburbs.<\/p>\n
He has always been a student of \u201cmind over matter.\u201d In the single digit years, as an introverted child, he was intrigued by \u201csuper powers\u201d and the Jedi Knights of Star Wars. Innate musical talent led him to taking up the piano. His mother, a gifted woman diagnosed with co-morbid mental disorders, encouraged him, when she was present, and cultivated him in the arts of creativity and imagination, introducing him to his first experience with recording.<\/p>\n
In his adolescent years, Pho\u2019 studied books about parapsychology and paranormal phenomena, always trying to think of makeshift ways to duplicate the exercises in the books.<\/p>\n
In Pho\u2019s teen years, he became involved in athletics, achieving both state-wide and national acclaim in track and field, whilst taking up the saxophone (at his grandparents\u2019 behest) and battle rapping on the school bus, the high school cafeteria and neighborhood parks & corners, where he gained a reputation for being the most gifted of the battle rappers on the local circuit, displaying a blend of cathartic pain discharge with a scientific and meticulous dissection of his opponents.<\/p>\n
Pho\u2019s mastery of mind over matter, overcoming asthma to excel in track and field, earned him a partial track and field scholarship to a private University in New Jersey. Once in college, Pho\u2019 took up BioChemistry, then switched to Neuroscience and finally landed in Psychology, struggling to find a course load which would allow him to keep optimum focus on track and field, which he found to be a greater mental test than any scantron could offer.<\/p>\n
Amidst accruing over 16 NCAA Division I Conference championships, Pho\u2019, with the collaboration of his roommate, busied himself recording mixtapes, two street albums (BLakLiSTeD and The Blue Pill) under the stage name \u201cStamina\u201d, rocking a few dozen live shows on the college campus scene in Central New Jersey, whilst amassing an impressive string of victories on the internet battle rapping scene and embarking on an extensive study into the world of conspiracy theories, occult, metaphysics, philosophy and esoteric religion. It was during this time that Pho\u2019 shared the studio and stage with pre-eminent artists in underground hip hop such as Silent Knight, Cymarshall Law, Pumpkinhead, Goretex & Sabac Red (formerly of Non Phixion) and Immortal Technique.<\/p>\n
After an altercation involving two intoxicated foreign exchange students which began when they aimed racial slurs at Pho\u2019 and ended with him attempting to take their lives, he channelled his disillusionment and began to convert his musical abilities into a medium for social commentary. He also published socially blistering articles in the local media outlet. Pho\u2019 pursued this line of motivation into the world of militant activism and, as Mattias Gardell defines it, a \u201cspecific black Gnosis, which could be termed blackosophy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Upon Pho\u2019s departure from college, armed with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology, he adopted the stage name \u201cLaZaRuS\u201d and dubbed himself as \u201cthe emcee that got tired of sleeping\u201d, simultaneously delving deeply into the history, systems and schools of thought of androtheism: the belief that man is, or has the capacity to become, God.<\/p>\n
His studies continued and studio time began to decrease as Pho\u2019 got more involved in community organizing and starting a family. He worked closely with the son of Larry Evans, chess grandmaster (famed for defeating Bobby Fischer), learning the art of war via the 64 squares and studied with \u201cBlack Buddhist\u201d Paul Guthrie, gaining knowledge of Anapanasati (mindfulness through the study of breath) and furthered his insights into the rich history of civilization which stretches far beyond the education provided by modern history books.<\/p>\n
Eventually Pho\u2019 came into contact with three adepts of an ancient, secret Order.<\/p>\n
Pho\u2019 now sees that a new dawn is coming. New stars are appearing in the sky. All revolutions start with a few, faltering steps that become more and more certain until the whole world resounds to the irresistible march of the future.<\/p>\n
Pho\u2019 has determined that he will employ his expressive art to spread a new philosophy of hope around the globe and fight back against the Power Elite. They have corrupted music, using it as one of their tools to further enslave humanity and keep Homo sapiens blind to the divine essence that lies within each and every one of us. It\u2019s time to redeem both music and humanity. Music and art, at their finest and highest, are the media through which God brings us into communion with him, through which we express our latent divinity.<\/p>\n
Everyone listens to music. Everyone is under attack.<\/p>\n
It is to this end that Pho\u2019 has founded ProGnosis Entertainment.<\/p>\n
The time has come for the seekers of the high paths to the gods to listen to the most vivid and inspiring music of all\u2026<\/p>\n
THE SOUNDTRACK OF THE REVOLUTION<\/p>\n
******<\/p>\n
Pho\u2019 said, \u201cA 15-year-old who joined The Movement last week offered some quick commentary that was so practical yet inspiring I decided to make it happen.\u201d<\/p>\n
We need a lot more 15-year-old\u2019s of that calibre!<\/p>\n
Pho\u2019 already has the music, the moves, the merit and the message. Now he needs a mass audience. One lucky break for Pho\u2019 and he can make it right to the top. His music can be the \u201ccarrier wave\u201d for The Movement, spreading its new philosophy of hope and light around the globe.<\/p>\n
The technology is now in place to allow the world to change radically in an extremely short period. A positive, inspiring message can sweep the planet in hours if it goes \u201cviral\u201d. Unfortunately, most viral content on the internet is about freakiness, gross-out humour, weirdness, celebrity, \u201ccuteness\u201d \u2013 about getting an instant reaction. When you send a \u201cviral\u201d link to your friends, its purpose is to make you look cool and trendy. It\u2019s to show that you have a great personality, that you\u2019re a fun person, a bit zany and \u201cout there\u201d, that others will have a great time if they hang out with you, that you\u2019re \u201ctoo cool for school\u201d. Anything that requires any thought will be deemed to be too serious (i.e. boring), too \u201cpolitical\u201d (i.e. boring), and require too much time (yawn). Your friends will think you\u2019re a bit of a sad, weirdo, uncool, nerd geek if you send them a manifesto for changing the world.<\/p>\n
Music is one way round the problem. An important message can be hidden in a great tune if it\u2019s done subtly enough, and a great tune and video can easily go viral (Lady Gaga certainly knows how to do it).<\/p>\n
Someone sent us Owl City\u2019s Fireflies song \u2013 a bland, manufactured piece of cheesy pop and yet strangely compulsive. The video has had many millions of hits. Imagine if this song actually had something significant to say.<\/p>\n
Pho\u2019 has got the tunes and the things to say. If you can help his songs go viral, go for it.<\/p>\n
We think Pho\u2019 has a \u201cmanifest destiny\u201d, and if he does then so does The Movement.<\/p>\n
Change the world. Join The Movement. It\u2019s time to replace Goldman Sucks and all the Merchant Wankers with a Golden Age for humanity.<\/p>\n
Let Pho\u2019 take his microphone magic to the world.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s The Prognosis?<\/p>\n
Photon has established his own internet hub for creative projects. ProGnosis Entertainment is part of the new crowdsourcing paradigm that escapes the reach of the Old World Order\u2019s gatekeepers. The people don\u2019t need agents, producers, record companies, book publishers, lawyers, marketing men, advertisers and all the other parasitical middle men who have, until now, decided what happens and what doesn\u2019t, what gets the green for go, and what gets red lighted out of existence. Now these people can be bypassed. In ten years, they will be extinct. The empire of the Old World Order is crumbling. They can no longer control either the medium or the message. Everywhere, uncensored information is bubbling up. The OWO have lost their monopoly. Fuck the gatekeepers. The dam has burst. Creative artists can go straight to the people, without having their message cleaned up, sanitized, sterilized and made acceptable to the OWO. Now the war against the rich, privileged elite can begin in earnest, and there\u2019s nothing they can do to stop it.<\/p>\n
Q. What\u2019s your internet-based platform all about?<\/p>\n
A. \u201cProGnosis Entertainment has been dubbed, \u201cThe Soundtrack of the Revolution\u201d, and it\u2019s all about setting the stage for creating a cooperative or coalition of artists who desire to use their gifts, talents and abilities to get people back into their OWN brands and styles of creativity, rather than the lovely world of zombie like consumerism which is fuelled largely by the music prevailing in popular culture. It\u2019s about The Movement. We\u2019ve gotta break the stranglehold on the creative juices. \u2018Ye are all gods!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
Prognosis: Pro (before), Gnosis (knowledge).
\nPrognosis: to know beforehand, to have foreknowledge.
\nPrognosis: to know what\u2019s coming; a forecast; a prediction.<\/p>\n
Q. What can the world expect from you this year?<\/p>\n
A. \u201cM for The Movement! Tag it and keep moving!\u201d<\/p>\n
******<\/p>\n
Photon is now working on a new project \u2013 Street Organization, Unification, Liberation \u2013 S.O.U.L.<\/p>\n
******<\/p>\n
Photon resists hysterical speculation. He remains calm, considered, thoughtful. He approaches everything in a professional, businesslike manner, setting himself realistic objectives, and ensuring that he accomplishes what he sets out to do. He immerses himself in creativity. He always seeks to know more, to improve. He is driven, motivated, zealous to achieve. He commands the respect of everyone. He never rests on his laurels. He prefers to be enthusiastic rather than cynical, open-minded rather than skeptical. He values real accomplishments, not the hot air, imaginary triumphs of braggarts.<\/p>\n
Photon \u201cgets it.\u201d Do you?<\/p>\n
The world needs more people like Photon: meritocrats ready to take over when the OWO fall, ready to stand up to the OWO and demand long-overdue justice.<\/p>\n

Check it out:<\/p>\n Pho\u2019s Soundcloud:\u00a0https:\/\/ Pho\u2019s Facebook:\u00a0https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ ******<\/p>\n An interview with Pho\u2019 from his\u00a0Prognosis.net<\/a>\u00a0site\u2026<\/p>\n Divine Numbers & Subjective Realities.<\/p>\n Greetings! Thank you for taking the time to check out the latest instalment of \u201cAltered States of Awareness.\u201d This time around we will be presenting a powerful, profound and thought-provoking interview Pho\u2019 recently participated in which was conducted by \u201cSeven,\u201d an activist in The Movement and founder of a Canadian grassroots community organization outfit, referred to as \u201cThe Network.\u201d<\/p>\n Seven poses the questions below on behalf of the members of the local circle of The Movement in which Seven is an activist.<\/p>\n \u201cThe individual has become a mere cog in an enormous organization of things and powers which tear from his hands all progress, spirituality, and value in order to transform them from their subjective form into the form of a purely objective life.\u201d –Georg Simmel<\/p>\n THE INTERVIEW\u2026<\/p>\n Seven: On your YouTube page (here) it reads \u201cPho\u2019 is a pioneering visionary in Hip Hop music. The future of the world\u2019s most popular genre of music begins here\u201d. Why don\u2019t we start with your vision of the future for Hip Hop?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: Well, step one, I\u2019m realizing, is to first state that what I will be referring to as Hip Hop in this interview is not \u201chip-hop\u201d – the rap music genre, which is wrapped in plastic and leveraged to serve capitalist corporate interests and weaponized against its creators as a form of divisive social engineering. So\u2026<\/p>\n What I see for the future of Hip Hop is the widespread acceptance, organization and increased legitimacy of what already exists, which is first and foremost, much more than a genre of music. Hip Hop is a global unified culture which transcends race, class, gender, religion, color, creed and all of the like, which places imagination, self creation, elevation, prosperity, love, awareness, wealth, health and liberation into the hands of the individual who is in tune with the spirit of universal oneness and evolution itself. I see Hip Hop as a culture maturing into self-sustaining communities and taking the \u201crelevant movement\u201d which defines Hiphop, to the remedy of the world\u2019s ills. It may seem far fetched, but hopefully, by the end of this session, the method to the madness will become clear.<\/p>\n Seven: As I\u2019m sure many people have, I\u2019ve often imagined a world where Hip Hop and other forms of musical and artistic expression are truly recognized for their ability to help us attain a lasting connection to the divine spark. When you are in your most motivated and creative state of mind, do you feel that you are establishing a connection with your higher self? If so, which has been more useful in facilitating that connection? Performing or writing lyrics and creating?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: Throughout history, the most sacred esoteric truths were experienced by men and women and preserved through \u201ctwilight\u201d, or coded, language, rituals and symbols. With this as a premise, I say Hip Hop is two-fold. There is the sight which inspires the manifestation of the element, and the manifestation of the element itself. The element I perform is \u201cemceein\u2019,\u201d which deals with the employment of language, particularly the employment of what is referred to commonly as \u201cfigurative language.\u201d The awareness which facilitates the creation of art — being reflective of the needs, desires, will, aspirations or culture of a constituency in a way which is representative of and simultaneously enriching to said constituency is without a doubt divine (of the higher self). To write lyrics is to \u201ccontrol, sense and alter\u201d that inspiration, but to perform is to BE a live channel for that inspiration, vibrating in reality amongst those who validate the reality of your awareness. Theory and practice are inseparable companions in any field of endeavour.<\/p>\n Seven: What do you think about the idea of people developing dialectical styles of hip hop or other forms of artistic expression and using them to solve complex problems facing humanity in epic hip hop battles* (* more like debates than battles)? What do you think about getting together talented dialectical artists and dialectical poets to stage public demonstrations of artists dialectically refining the problems humanity faces for the Movement?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: I think it\u2019s an amazing approach to communicating the root mechanics of the universe (the dialectic). I think you may have had a peek into the future there!<\/p>\n Seven: Does the process of interpreting and combining concepts of Illumination with Hip Hop and musical expression aid you in the pursuit of Gnosis? If so, what do you think are the most beneficial aspects of it?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: These are excellent questions. I\u2019ll break it down like this. TO MY KNOWELDGE AND UNDERSTANDING \u2013 Illumination, in its most sterile scientific sense, is the exposure of light to a given area. From a philosophical standpoint this light would function to prevent one from navigating in darkness. Darkness, to be esoteric and\/or hermeneutic about it, represents the ignorance, lack of skill and suppressive forces which prevent one from self creating, self actualising and expressing the maximum of human potential and prosperity. Gnosis, then, which is Greek for \u201cKnowing,\u201d represents a truth, also known as a path, to this goal. Gnosis isn\u2019t just \u201cknowing\u201d. To steal a touch of thunder from L. Ron Hubbard, a modern Gnostic mind, Gnosis is KNOWING HOW TO KNOW. The process, axioms, perceptions, lines of thought, rituals to generate emotive experience, and all of that designed to produce said state of altered state of consciousness is \u201ca gnosis.\u201d Hip Hop is a form of gnosis. It is a phenomenon which when practiced leads to a union with the divine. Hip Hop, the kulture, has the capacity to raise those who are in tune from states of sickness, hatred, ignorance and squalor in the ghettos, slums, trailer parks and what-have-you of Hell, into states of health, love, awareness and wealth which are capable of functioning as attractive catalysts for the liberation of all walks of life on the planet Earth. I know that\u2019s a lot. But it is what it is. The most beneficial aspects of Hip Hop, to me, are the development and maintenance of the sight, and motivation to hone and perform skill.<\/p>\n Seven: Are there any major insights you have found exclusively through Hip Hop that you would like to share with everyone?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: My first thought is this: just because I found a state of awareness or insight exclusively through Hip Hop doesn\u2019t mean that it is inaccessible through other methods. Hip Hop has shown me the experience or \u201coverstanding\u201d of seeing through another\u2019s eyes, documenting it, exhibiting it and having that perception confirmed by the subject of the artwork. To me, that\u2019s some deep shit. That\u2019s unity.<\/p>\n Seven: Perhaps you could tell us a little bit about Prognosis Entertainment.<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: ProGnosis Entertainment is an idea or an entity which is designed with the intent to inspire. An artist and connoisseur cooperative which brings arts and culture back to the people and designs the future of the culture of human potential via collective intelligence and meritocracy. The first crowdsourcing project we are planning for The ProGnosis is the refinement of the entity itself by all participating members. The \u201cManifesto\u201d has been posted, but let\u2019s make it better\u2026 together. You know?<\/p>\n Seven: What are your favorite ways or sources of finding musical inspiration?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: I, like many Hiphoppas (also known as Hip Hop Heads), gain inspiration by coming across \u201c \u2018ill\u2019 shit \u201c. Ill describes when you hear or witness something and it produces a sharply positive alteration of your state of awareness, especially an \u201cAha!\u201d\/\u201dEureka!\u201d moment. Ill can be found in any form of art and any genre of music. For example\u2026 r>=0 — ILL! The beginning guitar solo in \u201cSmells like Teen Spirit\u201d by Nirvana — ILL! The \u201cbullet time\u201d effect (CGI) –ILL! All subjective of course, but you get the point, right?<\/p>\n Seven: Within the realm of mainstream Hip Hop, are there any artists who you think really have the right idea, but could be doing more?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: Well, it\u2019s hard to know what people are really doing, unless you\u2019re right there with them. The first artist that comes to mind is Lupe Fiasco. I love his work, his message and his accessibility to those who appreciate his art. He\u2019s definitely emceeing more so than \u201crapping,\u201d (emceeing = true cultural spokesman vs. rapping = top down social engineering). By hook or by crook, he\u2019s broken through. I\u2019d say keep an eye on him.<\/p>\n Seven: Who are your all-time favorite Hip Hop artists?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: Wow, umm, at the moment this is how it pans out, but it\u2019s ALWAYS in flux, I guess I\u2019ll give it a top ten. In random order:<\/p>\n 1. Canibus Seven: If you had to define your specific style of Hip Hop, what would you call it?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: This is one of those Music Marketing 101 questions: \u201cPho\u2019 brandishes a progressive, socially conscious style of emceeing (HIPHOP) which combines luminary intellect and visceral power in vocal delivery over crisp underground instrumentals and grimy rap beats.\u201d<\/p>\n Seven: What forms of artistic expression other than music do you feel could be revolutionized and how?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: All can be revolutionized, that\u2019s what a renaissance is all about. When a new awakening of perception and awareness comes; a new style of expression \u2013 arts and culture \u2013 enters the world.<\/p>\n Seven: Which article from the Armageddon Conspiracy website gave you the biggest epiphany?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: \u201cMysterium Tremendum\u201d is amazing. Unified Theory. Strong runners up are \u201cThe Mind War,\u201d \u201cExodus\u201d and \u201cThe Jesus Plot\u201d all three give deep insight into the nature of deep universal truths and the mechanics of social engineering.<\/p>\n Seven: Out of all of the psychological problems created in our world by the Old World Order, which problem (or problems) do you feel are the most complicated and challenging?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: The abuse, mistreatment and deprivation of the female of freedom, justice and equality is one of the most overlooked and ignored problems in modern world history. Check out \u201cThe Female Conundrum.\u201d<\/p>\n Seven: What do you think is the best way to deal with the stress of balancing our previous roles in society with our new roles in the Movement? Do you have any strategies for stress relief?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: I think stress relief naturally comes when you are working in a capacity which is in tune with your psychological make-up and skill set, which is one of the aims of The Movement\u2026 to allow people the opportunity to \u201cGet in\u201d where they \u201cfit in.\u201d Spiritual growth and development is therapeutic\u2026 the pursuit of enthusiasm, imagination, action, games, creation and experience of art forms, and FLOW (for \u201cFlow\u201d see here).<\/p>\n Seven: What do you think the Movement is most lacking or has to focus on more?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: We\u2019re going to have to transcend paranoia and fear. At times we forget the principle of the panopticon\u2026 95% or more of the time, no one is watching\u2026 The Power Elite just don\u2019t see the overwhelming majority of the planet as having the intelligence and\/or drive to do anything outside of talking trash with no means or fortitude to back it up. We have the opportunity to prove them wrong, but remember\u2026 the \u201ceye in the sky\u201d is only employed in hindsight, i.e. reviewing the tape, for an overwhelming majority of the masses. In short, our fear cripples us from uniting, establishing bonds of trust and commitment. Most importantly, fear brings action to a stop. Fear is actually the opposite of Movement. Paranoia is the opposite of courage, outreach and clarity. We\u2019ve gotta get into the groove of connectivity. r=0!<\/p>\n Seven: What do you think is the most overlooked truth?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: A deeply profound question; the answer that comes to mind now is the nature of \u201cThe Butterfly Effect.\u201d In a world which seems so vast, so sophisticated and so monitored, we underestimate the influence of ACTION. The butterfly effect, coined by Edward Lorenz, pertains to the sensitivity of the future as related to action or conditions in the present. Basically, if a butterfly flaps its wings in South America, it can affect the weather in New York City. So what of human action? You are much, much more powerful than you imagine! Formulate a goal! If an insect\u2019s actions can change the course of history, surely, yours ALREADY ARE \u2026 but who is determining your action? Your \u201cboss\u201d? A book that is thousands of years old? A fear monger?<\/p>\n Seven: What quote or piece of advice do you feel contains the greatest wisdom?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: Again, a massive question to attempt to tackle without profound reflection. The first thing that comes to mind is a phrase of encouragement that was given to me in the winter of 2005, by a mentor of mine as I embarked on one of those especially defining sort of journeys on life\u2019s path – \u201cC\u2019mon, mind over matter\u2026 BE GOD.\u201d<\/p>\n Seven: Can you write a short lyric or poem about becoming God to inspire us?<\/p>\n Pho\u2019: Certainly.<\/p>\n Seven: If you could send a short and meaningful message to everyone in the world, what would it be?<\/p>\n
