THE JOURNEY

 

How it all started

Damon was born into the exploratory madness of the 1970s and raised by wolves, spiritual teachers, drug experimenters and rock & roll records. He was exposed to mature themes at an early age and possessed a boundless curiosity for what was and what could be created if his mind were set free. He founded and presided over the “world’s most elite sex club” until he sold it in 2019.

Upon attaining all he set out to, he was struck with the realization that a life of ego and excess was devoid of any real love, which by now he’d discovered was truly the most rare and valuable element in the universe. This Zen slap set him off on an impassioned journey just as America was reaching its own Karmic reckoning. As the fires and shattered dreams of discontent in a world gone mad fell like ashes upon city streets, Father Damon was incarnated as a phoenix from the flames to try and uncover a path back to love.

“Carry on, love is coming, love is coming to us all.”

— Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Philosophy

The question “why are we here” is an eternally unanswerable circular argument that has led us nowhere for thousands of years. Trying to live every day conscious, aware and in gratitude for our existence we begin to shed the myths of religious dogma and governmental doctrines to reveal the reality that we are all one and literally everything in the universe is part of an interconnected ecology.

You may call this reality God or whatever you wish, but any word struggles to fully describe life’s universal energetic union. We believe that love comes closest to the visible reflection of our oneness. Close your eyes for a moment, take a deep breath, exhale and consider what is truly most important to you.

The Now

“As this journey continues through painful lessons and joyful experiences, I find my focus shifting to giving and receiving as much love as possible. I struggle as most do when faced with pain, so my practice is finding love everywhere, even in darkness. Light immediately disperses darkness, they are mutually exclusive just as love is with hate. If you have experienced enough suffering for this lifetime then join me and we shall walk together in the light of love.” -FD

“I watched a rainbow turn starlight into tears
I heard the song of an angel with no wings
I hid out in an old rusted train
I left my body naked in the rain
Nothing is what I found
Nothing is real only love
I sailed on a moonship made of clouds
I climbed up on the back of a broken dream
I looked out over fields of a million years
I dove down under rolling waves of fear
Deep enough to touch the sky
Nothing is what I found
Nothing is real only love”
