Here is a letter I received yesterday, and my response:
Hello George,
Sorry to bother you, but I got a few more questions, I am just very curious.
Now, you said that Creativity just didnt have all the answers, what else have you found through your new beliefs, and was it what you were looking for? I was wondering and a buddy of mine said that if you ever came back to Creativity, he would have to forgive you, you were just so dedicated. What are your views on the religion of Creativity and would you EVER consider coming back to the church? Im not asking you to, I am just asking what you think about that whole deal. And If you have time for another question or 2, I would really appreciate it, and again, im sorry for bothering you with questions you have probably been asked 1000 times before. Do you still talk to, or have friends that are still active in the WN movement?
And the most important question. When you redid RAHOWA's most famous song, Ode to a Dying People, did it take on another meaning? If so, what is that meaning now?
Sincerely,
A Creator
Dear Creator,
A few years before leaving the movement, I had already stopped being a Creator. Notice the difference in the lyrics between the first and second RAHOWA albums? I had already become less ideologically motivated, more interested in history, and started learning about Buddhism and Hindu teachings, especially The Bhagavad Gita. (
http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/gita/agsgita.htm) People who think that my thinking changed like flipping a switch see the world in black and white. Instead, it was a gradual process that took ten years, and is still continuing until this day.
There are some good aspects of Creativity, especially Salubrious Living, and thinking about the needs of your people to survive and advance. But with over 500 million white people and most of the world's resources in our hands, we are NOT in jeopardy of immediate biological destruction, but rather are collapsing from within, bearing the errors of the modern age.
But the sufferings of our people are not unique to us ... this is a modern problem, everyone is losing in this debacle, this cesspool of human misery.
Which leads me to your next question, about Ode. I came to realize over time that the issues we face are not that different from the issues of the whole of humanity. We just naturally experience it from our own perspective, which is valid. But the death of the whole of humanity, and all the life on this planet, is a very real possibility. As an artist, I have always believed that the song belongs to the listener, and when I listen to it now, that is what I think about. It may hold other meaning for you, but that is for you to decide.
Our answers will come from finding the answers to the larger problem. I believe that there is a "master key" that unlocks every door, a worldview where everyone wins, and where the brotherhood of man - not the myopic visions of global conquest ("this planet is all ours") - is the foundation for mutual respect and cultural upliftment.
I cannot speak for you or anyone else, but I believe that I have found in the teachings of the Buddha, along with many other European, Middle Eastern, and Eastern teachings, the correct thinking process that is leading us to the answer.
Yes, I still have friends in the movement. I have friends of every race, of every religion, of every belief system. I am open-hearted and welcome friendship into my life. Despite the collective failures of man, I care about people. I care about children and the world they inherit. I think we can do better. I think we can act as proper custodians of the Earth, and protect all of nature's finest creations not just from material extinction, but also from spiritual poverty.
Ghandi said "be the change you want to see in the world." Forget that Ghandi said it, and just ask yourself, is that not a valid principle to live by?
Once a comrade, still a friend,
George
