The Immortal World – A Hymn
November 23, 2013The immortality of happiness…
From “How To Be Happy” by Luke Andreski
Soap bubbles caught by the wind and flung
High up towards the smiling sun
In rainbow colours gaily dressed
Once loved, twice treasured and three times blessed
However short their blessed flight
Reflect life’s radiance and light
So we each float careless and free
From evolution’s destiny
And glitter and flash and shine so bright
With creation’s joy, creator’s light
And with momentous strength create
The immortal world in perfect state
There is no time, this time is all
Where civilisations rise and fall
And memories of our fleeting lives
Still shine like stars in timeless skies
And lives the folk of past times lived
Forever remain a timeless gift
There is no time tho’ time seems king
Of matter, space and everything
Yet all these things serve but to show
The beauty of the here and now
Perception’s…

When is a cult not a cult?
September 26, 2013
Is a cult a cult if it calls itself a cult?
Is a cult a cult if it denies it is a religion?
Is a cult a cult if it is fundamentally secular?
These questions are all raised by the phenomenon of Maxus Irie, the so-called ‘captivating cult of happiness and joy’. Visiting the website http://www.captivatingcult.com you might think that you have stumbled upon something fundamentally innocent, particularly if you click on the link to be ‘transported to another place’…. but can a cult ever be truly innocent?
Judging by the t-shirts, I suspect the answer may be “Yes”.

Annoy your friends and family – join a cult
September 24, 2013From the pen of the distinguished and hyper-intelligent Juliette Stevenson..
The Juliette Stevenson Interview:
A new cult is infesting our streets… but could it possibly be a “nice” cult?
What are cults and why are they bad? This summer a new cult came into existence: Maxus Irie, the “captivating cult of happiness and joy”. The brainchild of author and poet Luke Andreski, Maxus Irie celebrates and promotes happiness, love and joy while at the same time challenging the very notion of what a cult is.
I doorstep Luke Andreski during a conference in his local city, Bristol UK, and ask him some challenging questions about his new project. I begin by asking him, Aren’t cults fundamentally wrong-headed?
“Generally that’s the case,” Luke says as he ushers me into his quiet and studious household, “but my cult is different. Firstly, it is a fun cult, a cult which is meant to make you smile, a cult which is about nothing other…

Our Contentment And Love Last Forever
September 17, 2013The poetry of happiness…
Leapfrogging, cartwheeling, gyrating and spinning
Our lives are the laughter of the now and ever after
Where happiness and joy
Are a part of forever
And our sadness and tears
Are in the never-never
And our contentment and love
Last for ever and ever
For ever and ever
For ever and ever
And our contentment and love
Last for ever
Bounding, somersaulting, tumbling and leaping
Our lives are the laughter of the now and ever after
Where kindness and love
Are a part of forever
And our losses and our sorrows
Are in the never-never
And our smiles and our happiness
Last for ever and ever
For ever and ever
For ever and ever
And our smiles and our happiness
Last for ever
Stepping out, jumping up, ducking low, leaping high
Our lives are the laughter of the now and ever after
Where caresses and smiles
Are a…
