LEVEL 8 is the Buddhist Destination

QUESTION: What will we find when we get there?

ANSWER: We found an afterlife. We even found an Angel. And we talked to fallen soldiers on Memorial Day.

SUMMARY: What American Zen did, learned, experienced and saw was a UNIQUE SPIRITUAL JOURNEY. People should seek to advance the 8 LEVELS of SHAOLIN ZEN BUDDHISM in their own unique way. Especially the Spirits and Ghosts stuff. Yet, death is a guarantee. How you approach it is up to you and enfluenced by your environment and the people in your world. Coyote was homeless and living very alone in his Tacoma Truck in 2014 when he recorded the last two albums of American Zen. His spiritual travels in another dimension did not begin with his LSD travels in the 1960s. LSD distorts reality. It doesn't even work as a gateway to another dimension. But it did prepare Richard Del Connor for his out of body experiences and visions which he can always claim were hallucinations, imagination or flashbacks.

Coyote = Cartoon Voice (my prediction)

"I've always wanted to be in cartoons!" exclaims Coyote. "I can make lots of funny voices...and..."

I'm betting Coyote will have lots of offers for animation characters. Coyote IS A LIVING CARTOON!

FINAL SUMMARY: Living as an overdub artist or cartoon voice or even audiobook reader would have and could have been a lucrative career for Richard Del Connor. In 1989 while mixing the album COYOTE IN A GRAVEYARD that was released in 2014 as COYOTE GRAVEYARD by Kung Fu Cowboy of Shaolin Records; Richard was hanging around with John Denver at Soundcastle Studios. Other artists were making money doing cartoon overdubs. Even Luke Skywalker of Star Wars made a huge career as the evil Joker in many years of a Batman cartoon series. Too bad Luke didn't have the backbone to inspire people to be Jedi Knights instead of sell-outs.

Had Michelle not lured Coyote to Utah, this overdub career would have been better than Carpentry or stagehand work that Richard would fall back on periodically.

Richard Connor Receives Producer Award for LEVEL 8 CD by American Zen

I've been recording albums and commercials since 1975...so it's about time I won something.

Each record I record is another opportunity to do better and more and...

CONCLUSION: I didn't win any producing awards. I earned them. I should get the award for DID PROFESSIONAL RECORDINGS in HOME STUDIO. The last two albums by American Zen were recorded in Tacoma Studios, his truck he lived in from 2012 to 2020.

No matter how well the American Zen albums were recorded, Record Producer Richard Del Connor will never be acknowledged for any achievements until he sells 1 million records by at least one Shaolin Records artist he produces.

Highest Rated Podcasts Ever   (Hey, it's possible.)

Wanna REALLY hear the American Zen story?

Follow the journey through podcasts hosted by The Hippy Coyote of American Zen.

CONCLUSION: Had Richard Del Connor not become homeless at the end of 2011, his podcast career might have blossomed and bloomed and grown into a size that he could monetize and earn royalties and advertising income. But again, this career and all five podcast series died during Richard's homeless years. For a year, he tried to keep them going but eventually could not afford the $7 per month fee of five podcast series. Being homeless he could barely pay storage fees, then auto fees, then food and cat food and cat litter. The podcasts ended in 2013 as Coyote could not update the websites on Library computers that he could only access for two hours a day.

FINAL SUMMARY: Richard Del Connor is launching a whole bunch of podcasts, that he doesn't have time to edit, although he's amassing a whole bunch of them recorded in various parts of his Lancaster home studio and Shaolin Kung Fu KWOON.
