my heart. I combined this with a visualization I could see in my mind. After about six months of attending class the Guru gave a lecture that compared life to the children¿s board game Chutes and Ladders. Rising into the realms of higher consciousness was compared to climbing up a ladder one rung at a time. As we climb higher, life becomes more challenging, even frightening. This is when most become fearful of the heights attained. If one desires to continue the progression it sometimes becomes necessary to hold onto the rungs of the ladder for dear life. This is when it becomes tempting to look down. And what do we see when we look down? Tantalizing chutes that tempt and distract us. Once we let go of the ladder, the chutes slide us right back down to where we started. This story had a profound impact upon me for it accurately described my spiritual experience. I went home and wrote a poem about what I had just heard. I attached the poem to some guitar riffs. The poem evolved into a song I called ¿Eye In The Sky.¿ I found a talented drummer and bass player and created a band. Naming a band is equally as difficult as naming a child but a name I liked came quickly, ¿Deputy Zero.¿ We recorded the song and I made a few copies. I approached the Guru after class and told him how I was inspired by his lecture and handed him a Cd of the song. We listened to it together. After the last note faded from the speakers he turned to me and said, ¿Bring your guitar to the next class.¿ I brought my guitar to the next class. When it was time for the chants he nodded at me to join him on stage. He rarely plays the same thing twice so I listened closely and improvised to the best of my ability. After class I thanked the Guru for allowing me to bring my guitar to class. He looked at me and said, ¿Keep bringing it.¿ Every class since that day I have been seated on stage to the Guru¿s left. I have become the Guru¿s Guitarist.
