The Hindu's Said Over 2500 Years Ago; Our World, A World At War, It's lack of Intellectually and Spirituality Is Why.


No one or any group of people will ever have definitive prove of how humans got here or if there is or isn't a God or Gods. The constant eternal search for human creation and why we exist is beyond thoughts compass.

The book " The Song of God Bhagavad-Gita," first published in 1954 is a rewritten English transformation of Hindu God knowledge written nearly 3000 ago.

Gita, as we all know from our reading is piece of literature. "The Song of God Bhagavad-Gita" is book written more than 2500 before the birth of Jesus, and mentions many divine happenings the Bible does with zero judgment toward others with different lifestyles and believes.

Hindu's who believe in God except Buddhist, Christians and many other religions because they too are seeking God, and the Hindu philosophy is not egotistical like too many other religions which claim their way is the only way, and it you don't think and feel what they feel, they can and often kill you and your babies without remorse. Hinduism embraces love and shrouds hatred which other religions that started 1,000s of years after Hinduism fail to embrace or even try to understand.

Brahman the main God as stated in "Bhagavad-Gita" is one of many Hindu Gods. The Hindu's accept the fact that their divine believers  worship one God, many Gods or even no God.

The basic belief in Hinduism from what I've read in the above mentioned book and "Hinduism" by R.C. Zaehner first released in 1962 is that the Hindu's belief reward or punishment in the afterlife is based on karma, not following rigid rules such as being a sinful and hell bound person for fantasying about that beautiful redheaded women cashiering at the local 7-Eleven store.

For a book written more than 2500 years ago, " The Song of God Bhagavad-Gita" illustrates why things are so messed up in today's world. Rajas, a Hindu word for devil will make you thirsty for pleasure and possession.

'These malignant creatures are full of egotism, vanity, lust, wrath and power.' These words are from  "The Song of God Bhagavad-Gita" which is referring to the ungodly. Our world and business leaders live by the above words.  

The Perennial Philosophy are two powerful words in this book. To achieve and understand Perennial Philosophy is to eliminate all confusion of words, myths and local histories.

The Song of God Bhagavad-Gita" claims that Christians, Buddhist, Hindu's and many other religions can live as one and dream of an eternity of sheer paradise whatever its name might be; Valhalla, Nirvana, Heaven or Hawaii.

Donald Trump, Our Next Leader?


Trump spoke for nearly 90 minutes Thursday night without saying much, just a bunch of idle words from a ridiculous presidential candidate.

"We will lead our country back to safety, prosperity and peace," Trump said.

Sounds great, but 100 percent safety, prosperity and peace are things that can only be dreampt about, but will never happen. Name one era or generation in the history of the U.S. that has experienced the above three things for more then ten minutes, or in any country for that matter.

Trump using the word peace is a sick joke in itself. Bill Maher stated on one of his HBO shows, "Real Time With Bill Maher," that Trump said if he becomes president that we (U.S.) will bomb the s*** out of Isis. How is that peaceful? Yes I agree, the Middle East is a country that is way behind the times. Middle Eastern women, even girls as young as 8-years-old can be forced into marriage, then raped and beaten regularly by their husbands legally.

Throwing battery acid in the face of Middle Eastern females attending school is another thing condoned by many Middle Eastern males, also legal over there. The war in the sands across the seas, a war in which more than 6,820 young American soldiers have lost their lives http://qz.com/411623/the-names-of-the-6828-americans-who-have-died-in-afghanistan-and-iraq/ since 2003 is about oil which translate to money. The war should be about helping these defenseless women on the other side of the globe, but there is no money in that, so Trump is an ideal U.S. president. After all, he represents what America is about, money.

"The point is that you can never be too greedy," Trump said in his 1987 book "The Art of The Deal."

Trump also mentioned that if elected, he'd cut taxes. The proposed tax cut he'd implement would reduce his taxes by about 1.3 million dollars a year said Senator Elizabeth Warren on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert". Trump said on his Thursday night televised speech that he will go to work for our country, to break free from the petty politics of the past. Those are great words, but again, political rhetoric that means absolutely nothing.

Warren said on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" Thursday night that Trump talks about improving the world, but he's really talking about improving the world for himself and I agree with her.

On Thursday nights speech Trump still said he intends to build a great wall (Mexico / American border) to stop illegal immigrants, gangs, violence and the drugs from pouring into our country. Why not a wall on the Canadian border too Donald? Apparently only Mexicans are into drugs and gangs.

Trump did say the system is rigged and I agree, but electing him to clean the political pool of peril is like appointing Ku Klux Klan members as the head of the police department in all predominantly black neighborhoods.

As a young preschool aged boy in the 1960s I honestly remember my parents and their friends at voting time talking about how bad both the democratic and republican choices were for president, but they always said;

"Vote for the lesser of two evils."

Nothing will ever change for  better in this political arena of manipulation, mayhem and insane politics from the rich who will always dominate the poor and continue sending other peoples children to die for crazy wars.

It's my weekend, but soon I'll climb in my oil fueled, non solar powered vehicle to continue working for the one percent, yippee...

Modern Moron Mayhem Continues


My thoughts whirling on the journeying winds of my senses. Caught in the middle of the maze of mayhem, the chaos that defines world politics and the human quest for endless greed and frivolous news.  My simplicity for seeking unique word combinations, ranting about political corruption, bad movies and books along with dabbling in photography keep my rage in check.

Rejoice, Reboot or Rage Today & Tomorrow


Today is the second day this year that no one in the universe can watch a live professional American baseball, football, basketball, or hockey game.

Yesterday the American League Major League Baseball all stars defeated the National League all stars 4-2 to earn the right to host the 112th World Series this year. The best of seven contest to determine the champion MLB team begun play in 1903. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Series

In current times, the day before, and now the two days after the baseball all star game, non of the above American pro sports are played live, the only three days a year such a thing happens across the globe.

The vast majority of professional sports fans have lost their luster to watch any pro sport anymore because of this years NBA championship series. OK, that last sentence is a bombastic exaggeration on my part.

For the next two days America and the rest of the world can rejoice. Rejoice because the power and big money in pro sports four heavy hitting money makers cannot poison minds today and tomorrow.
Certain games, certain best of seven series between two teams become fixed, the almighty dollar in the end dictates the wining and losing team more often than any human will know for sure.

"I've lost all respect sorry this is absolutely rigged for money....Or ratings in [sic] not sure which. I won't be silent. Just saw it live sry," Ayesha Curry, Stephen's wife tweeted after game six of this years NBA Finals.

The Warriors 73 games won in the 2015-2016 regular season was an all time 70 year NBA best regular season ever, until the team lost the championship to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Warriors had not lost three games in a row the entire season, or the post season. Needing just one win to clinch back to back titles, the Cavaliers did the unprecedented and churned out three wins in a row to the home court advantaged Warriors.

One one side of the coin, I saw how the Cavaliers unraveled the Warriors and got into their heads. Curry and Draymond Green, the Warriors best players both got ejected from two different NBA Finals games, Green in game five, Curry in game six. Simple as that, LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, especially in game five, a do or die game for Cleveland showed up and dominated the Warriors in Oakland 112-97. Two games later, the Cavaliers were the NBA champions, the first pro championship for a Cleveland team since 1964. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_in_Cleveland  

As a Warrior fan, I believe the whole series was set up for James, aka King James. LeBron James like it or not is an iconic basketball player with lots of money, billions if not more flowing into the hands of Las Vegas odds makers and many more extremely wealth business people.

The powers that be could not have 'King' James lose back to back NBA championships, it might have taken away from his jersey selling and countless other product sales. It's all just a game folks, even the reality show of this year's presidential election in which both crappy candidates dish on each other and have no will or desire to help the poor or middle class in any way shape or form. The media messiah shrouds us from the harsh realities of world hunger, wars, health care and dozens of other real issues that should be solved, but never will.

"It's all BS folks," the late great George Carlin said and I agree.

Rise, Fall, Repeat of Nations...


Ancient villages pillaged by today's government mentality. The leaders of old enslaved the young who were forced to build cities while their young mothers were raped and their granddads slaughtered.
Peace and harmony have always been just words buried in the reality of deceit, greed and corruption.
Glorified Greeks of old destroyed by karma, ruling Rome ruined by its own greed. Today's America spreading its armies too thin, thrusting its believes and culture on too many middle easterners and many others across the seas. The constant drone strikes creating more and more enemies as the claws of time get bigger and sharper each day awaiting to pounce on nations thriving on genocide. Which generation will be the last to destroy civilization? Izzy Schurr


Another Modern Moron Movie Review


Professional thief Nick Barrow (Vince Vaughn) gets caught up in a crazy and potentially fatal web of police and criminal corruption.

Barrow's 16-year-old daughter Cate portrayed by Hailee Steinfeld for all intensive purposes is growing up alone, her mom is an alcoholic, her father Nick is a good soul who loves her, and wants her to have positive direction in her life, but his dealing with unsavory souls makes him a distant father for her safety.



When Nick and his crew steal a huge sum of evidence money, things really go sour, people get killed and Nick is forced to go on the run from both the law and the outlaws. Crocked cops and criminals will not hesitate harm or even kill his daughter to get to Nick.

While Nick and his daughter are on the lamb, they are forced to reconnect with each other, to be family again. While the conflict of losing his daughters love and respect for Nick loom, he must also find a way to prove his innocence for being framed for the murder of a cop and keeping his daughter safe.



"Breaking Bad" actor Jonathan Banks is Harper, one of the few people Nick can trust. When Nick tells Harper they need to talk, Harper replies;

"Besides your bad haircut, what do we need to talk about."

Vaughn's hair style in "Term Life" is a long departure from his other movies which makes the above line extremely funny.

Despite the movies adult themes and criminal violence, screen writer Andy Lieberman did a fantastic job in transforming  Nick Thornborrow's graphic novel into a solid action movie with pertinent dialogue and a heart felt story. Three stars easy for the July 5 DVD release of "Term Life."

A Glimpse of Myself


Behold the power cosmic, it enables me to travel to the farthest reaches of the universe and beyond. Beyond there is nothing, nothing that I've found anyway. In my life time thus far, I've managed to save the Earth from complete human destruction more than a dozen times.

In the vastness of outer space along the edges NASA hasn't even imagined, I've soared again and again to these countless crevasses of infinite space. Various meteors larger than Earths moon hurling toward it at more than 100,000 miles per hour would destroy all human life with one hit. Since I'm able to travel at the speed of light, 186,000 miles per hour, I'm able to swirl around these various meteors eager to pulverize Earth. In doing so, I create enough wind to alter the course of these wicked meteors to completely miss Gaea, Mother Earth.



In all the galaxies in the endless reaches of space, I have found no planet more blessed then this one, and yet in it's uncontrollable insanity, the human race seeks to destroy this shinning jewel, this blessed sphere which men call Earth. Entrapped upon this world of madness, stand I...
(This paragraph is from a Silver Surfer comic book)

Many sunset's ago, I once loved, then she too gained the cosmic power. Amidst her and myself's cosmic travels to the the lake between sun and moon some serious romancing took place.
She and I possessed true happiness, the sheer bliss of waking in each others arms. The countless times of walking hand in hand through majestic mountains, marvelous sunrises and sunsets on lush nature where colossal water falls, and late spring foliage danced under the decorated stars of the night and the colorful skies of daylight.

One day she got caught in a comic tornado and thrust into another universe, perhaps even killed. I followed the tornado as long as I could until it was swallowed in one of the many black holes of space.

I too was almost sucked into that same black hole that took her, the one I loved, the one who loved me back. The only thing that saved me was a meteor about the size of baseball whizzing by which I caught, and the vast speed of the meteor pulled me out of the suction of the black hole.

Too many moons ago the love of my life was projected into another galaxy I cannot get to. Thou infinitely beckons, I must leave behind my very heart, never has there been, never will there be another such as her.                                       (Thou infinitely beckons...is also from a Silver Surfer comic book.)

Standing amidst the chaos of pelting rain, crashing
waves and ocean winds, all I could see was her
face. Mesmerized by her smile, fixated by her laugh,
drawn to her every word. Her heart felt wisdom saturates
my mind with love & laughter. Indeed she is the true
definition of the word lady; Classy, smart, sensuous,
soulful, sweet and sincere.
Harbored in my dreams and embedded in my soul
dwells her. Luscious lady who awakes delicious
desires…                                                      Izzy Schurr


More Daft Dreams


The void reality of the socially inept, the uncool, the unsuccessful and unaccepted. We learn to dream, to seek creativity by any means possible.

Rephrasing and adding my own words and thoughts to Jim Morrison's lyrics from the Doors "Moonlight Drive" is one of many ways to explore my dreams creations;



Moonlight Bliss

Let's swim to the moon, let's climb to the sea, penetrate the evening while the city sleeps tonight. Tonight you and me woman will surrender to better worlds as snug lascivious moisture causes our bodies to collide in ecstasy on the sand and under the stars. No lies, no promises, just two romantics seizing the moment while our souls soar to amazing galaxies ruled by love and laughter.

Life, Death, Heaven, Hell, And...


Life, Death, Heaven, Hell, and Many Thing Inbetween.

Believe in one God, many Gods, no Gods, yourself, him, her, them or nothing, but no matter what thoughts run rampant in your head, everybody has mixed feelings about the function and form of creation. 

Ah, the age old questions; what came first, the infant or the parents? Why are we here? If your going to read the rest of my drivel, you certainly won't find the answers here, but I do have some thoughts. 



I'm not going to thrust my believes or disbelieves upon anyone in this particular blog, just what intrigues me about the very beginning to now. No matter what you believe, God or science for example, if you go back far enough, once upon a time humans did not exist. Science and religion both attest to this. 

"The Grand Design" written by Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow states that the current species of humans, us, Homo sapiens, originated in Saharan Africa about 200,000 B.C AP. The written language dates back only 7,000 years ago. More than a 190,000 of undocumented human history, that fascinates me. 

Hawking and Mlodinow claim a fellow named Thales was the first to predict a solar ellipse more than 2,600 years ago. (585 B.C.) I mention this because this was a revelation in science, an understanding that the universe is not completely random nor functions that way. Indeed their is logic and specific patterns that govern our universe. 

"The most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible," Albert Einstein said. 

Religion has a strong argument against science, if we (humans) started out as babies, the human race would not exist. 



 Human history could be as simple as the earliest or one of the earliest praised Gods, Bumba. The ancient Boshongo people of central Africa claim the almighty Bumba vomited up the sun, then the moon, stars, animals and eventually people. The current state of politics and corruption in the world would certainly explain humans as coming from regurgitation from the upset tummy of a God.  

The Old Testament claims Adam and Eve were created just six days upon the Earths creation. Humans have only been around for thousands of years, the earth has been around for about 13.7 billion years state Hawking and Mlodinow. In 1961, physicist Robert Dicke argued for us to exist, the universe must contain elements such as carbon. Carbon cooks lighter elements inside stars. The carbon must then be scattered through space in a supernova explosion and eventually condense as part of a planet which takes about ten billion years.  Science? God?

Everybody got mixed feeling about the function and the form, everybody got to deviate from the norm Neil Peart wrote in the 1981 Rush song "Vital Signs."
