Integrity of an American IdolPop Culture , or more correctly Popular culture is generally attributed to what in the mainstream of our world is catching our attention , or as a number of ancient teachings and channels like BASHAR say , What is Entertaining us!
Now with the advent of the world wide success of the Secret! first as the movie then as a bestselling book , Oprah's Echkart Tolle 'New earth' series , and the whole 'Time for Change' movement spearheaded and culminating in Barack Obama's being voted into the Presidency, we are looking at a whole new form of Pop culture one infused with all the spirituality, positivity and integrity ,once only reserved for the rare ashram or retreat center, these qualities are expanding and spreading like wild fire through our whole world on all levels , the new Pop Culture is a Spiritual Culture!
Part of this new thinking is the concept of creating ones own reality ! that each of us from our own perspective manifest and pave our own destiny through the thoughts, words and actions we choose, and that what we spend time focusing upon is what we find shows up in our lives ! Writers such as Esther & Jerry Hicks and Maui's own Dr. Wayne Dyer explain all the details of this thinking , as well as new mainstream movies such as Peaceful warrior & Conversations with God . One of the main issue's this has brought up is that although we might want a new car or House or more money , these are not the real desires but simply what we feel will give us what we truly want Peace of Mind ; because in this quiet and accepting place we are in direct contact with own Grander being , inspired to trust our own intuition and have the courage to become the creators,the writers, the artists our Hearts yearn to express through the greatest work of ART , our own Lives!
This was recently evidenced in the pinnacle of modern pop culture , cable TV's American Idol .In last years season a young singer/songwriter David Cook , broke the mold of the normal teen pop sensation and despite all odds went on to shock the shows judges and win ! How did he do this ? Four attributes which we should emulate. Integrity,Courage,Trust and Non-Attachment! He had a connection to who he was and what he believed and would not compromise this but found amazing ways to interpret hit songs in a courageous new way ,trusting that his fresh approach would touch the audience all the time unattached to winning the show if it meant losing himself! He more or less said this in the final and was shocked to be announced the winner!
So ,now more than ever, in our society we are valuing the new ,fresh and Inspiring ideas that grow not from our past associations of the mind , but in trusting an Inner Passionate imagination to imbue Popular culture with our own particular brand of enlightened Entertainment!
