For all the Boomers … here is a story about faith, magic, and universal love vibrations

When I left Boom 2000, which by the way was my very first Boom festival, I suggested to Diogo, who is the organizer of the event that a psychedelic movie theatre seemed to be missing. Diogo, who is very receptive to such suggestions, asked me in 2002, if I want to organize the Psynema? So: there I was in the heat of Portugal on the by now legendary lake, very busy organizing the Psynema and Main Stage projections parallel to one another. 2002 was a chaotic set up on all levels. Communication was questionable and everything seemed a bit off center. Nevertheless the gathering was super-magical, despite all the technical difficulties that everyone encountered. The party definitely took off. After working for several days 24hrs non-stop, like everyone who makes Boom possible, I finally had the 3rd night off to party and dance. Pedro drove us (Swami Chaitanya, me, and Spirit) to the dance floor, when I already saw various creatures in this holographic space that we drove through -the dance floor. I spent hours on stage, in the center of the double Fibonacci spiral that François created with the artists who painted the fabulous decorations that looked like an Alex Grey painting, dance temple with Limurian inscriptions on it. I (only) ingested 2 grams of Hawaiian mushrooms when space started bending and this wind came to spiral the entire party off into another dimension. A time/space portal opened up to put me into this futuristic dream, where we were all part of this PERFECT world. The builder of the dance temple in 2002 saw a dragon brush through the terrain during those moments I got swept away by the mysterious wind. He described the dragon as follows: Wherever the dragon brushed through, light illuminated everything. I recorded a conversation on video in which this story was explained and I talked to him in 2004 to clarify that what I had heard on video was really true and amazingly it was! In the future-vision that I experienced we where all perfectly aligned and in harmony with one another. Everybody realized their full potential and lived it too. We were all coming to each other saying: “Have you heard the news yet? We are totally free!” Our imagination was boundless and the time/space barrier between dreaming and waking was no more. Everything was possible and it all seemed so real to me, as I was lying in Swami’s arms, suspended in space. The most amazing thing that I did not even know was so amazing until this years Boom, is that during the timeless moments I was cradled in Swami’s arms, I was in a huge geodesic dome, which I interpreted then to be a metaphor for us to be part of the flower of life and thus, creation itself. As I was journeying through this vision, one triangle after another of the magnificent dome-space in which this incredible experience took place filled up with another Boomer who became fully realized. The music during those timeless moments was completely perfect, quite unbelievable indeed. I woke up on the other side of the party, pissing into my pants, when I realized that I had come back to my physical shell. I did not really remember what had happened to me out there, only that it was immensely good! I came directly from paradise and I was very happy. On the previous night when I fell of stage at the moment my spirit left my body, soaring into that eternal time-space portal, I landed in Swami’s arms, who was there for me during the 6hr period in which I was channeling this stunning vision. When I woke up I did not remember what happened to me and I asked Swami what was going on during that night with me? He replied saying that I became a channel of light for the party to come through and this is exactly how it felt to me. I was in Paradise and Paradise was here! It had arrived in my vision and we were all in it together, as ONE. Many details were communicated to me during that night, for example: facts about the arrival of paradise on Earth. A cosmic wave of consciousness will illuminate all beings on this planet with the full realization of the entire truth that is much wilder than we can ever imagine. It was definitely connected to the Mayan Calendar prophecy and the global awakening process! That was all pretty wowy, but listen to what happened this year at BOOM 2004?

This year 2004, Boom was even more amazing for me, and most likely also everyone else, because I realized when smoking DMT in our hammock, overlooking the entire party, that this party was my vision of 2 years ago in actuality manifested. All my friends from San Francisco that were part of the vision 2 years ago were physically here this year. And the most amazing thing … the domes! Flower of life’s over flowers of lives projected and perfectly communicating that geometric pattern that created us all. It was the domes of my dreams from 2 years ago that were standing magnificently as representations of universal truth, powerfully real. Pedro who had driven me out while I was out 2 years ago apparently perceived that vision of building the domes. Unfortunately he himself was not part of the Good Mood organization any longer, due to a Karmic response to his actions, but what a perfect party it was indeed this year! Everything worked absolutely in harmony with everything else. The art exhibition and the MAYA dome, the lake, the projections, the music, the drugs, and the love! You could see it in everybody’s eyes … we were all here ONE in UNITY, completely HARMONIOUSLY aligned in this wondrous perfect party space, where deep transformational experiences happened to all of us on a microcellular level. For me, it was just like last years 3rd night, but I was not dreaming it. It was real! So real that I became a believer like I never had before. The visuals were outstanding. The barrier between the inner and the outer seemed no barrier no more. All was totally in sync and aligned, every thought, every action; every word of all Boomers seemed totally perfect. There was a ritualistic burn this year at Boom as well … to connect with the Burners in Black Rock. There also was a fire ritual that invited all the fire performers with a local BOOM newspaper add to join. From the 4 corners huge clusters of fire jugglers and performers approached the main dance floor that took off flying all the nights of the mind-expanding tribal gathering.
