Jared Chodowski "The Initiate" - Beyond the Ordinary Dot Net

~~~ Jared Chodowski "The Initiate" ~~~
"I am on this journey for a reason, I am grateful for what I have, and the school has allowed
me the foundation to build my dreams and the life I am now living into fruition. I don't know
everything yet but I am learning, and I am becoming more every day The Initiate."

Jared Chodowski is now producing and recording his own music in his home studio. Jared Performed at the Tacoma Dome for the MLK JR. 2007 celebration "I Have a Dream," an original piece he wrote and produced, and was the only artist quoted in the tacoma news tribune from that performance.

Jared grew up going to Ramtha's School of Enlightenment, from age 9-17, now 24, he attends periodically. Unhappy with the direction his life was headed, it all started with a desire to change. In his words... "While contemplating one day I realized that what I wanted was to be creative, although I had no idea what it was going to be. Writing was probably the last on my list, because I had never written anything besides papers for school. This was while I was getting my AA at South Puget Sound Community College. I have learned a lot, not only about myself but about life and the way that the universe works, through my journey thus far with my music. What I learned at RSE growing up is the foundation for my life. Contemplation has played a huge role for me it has been my daily discipline and my greatest teacher, and of course I learned about that at RSE. I have had experiences that have made the teachings become more than a philosophy, an undeniable truth. These experiences have taught me that we are truly unlimited, we can access any information, even music which became a huge part of my life."

"Every song has a story and some songs are stories. But I feel because most people aren't used to listening to rap, it's hard to Listen to his music here

find meaning amongst the rhymes, if you're not used to hearing it. I love to explain why I wrote what I wrote. It's actually one of my favorite parts of showing my music to people."
[yes it is... he patiently taught us, your BTO hosts]

Jared's talent, music, and the wisdom in his writing is beautiful, and he is a delight.
Here www.myspace.com/initiatemusic you can see a video of Jared's wonderful I Have A Dream performance from the MLK commemoration at the Tacoma Dome, Tacoma, Washington. His music is available there, and we encourage you to give a gift of this rap, to all the young ones you know. This is inspiration to offset the mind-deadening messages in rap now pushed on our youth, because they love the beat.
