Subject: Sean Lennon _ The U.S. Vs. John Lennon
Body: Hi Sean:

The other nite when I couldn’t sleep I ended-up watching a film I had been wanting to view for a while now: The U.S. Vs. John Lennon. Of course it, it had an impact upon me. And as I realized that one of the happiest, joyful, meaningful days for your father was captured in this documentary as the birth of you = your birthday = and his = and the day he won his case against the U.S. government.

Many people may tell you what a special person your father was and still is to this day. Moreover, yeah, you really do have a special set of parents. Unlike the “martyrs” we are forced to know today who are more or less swords of a dogmatic, violent, fanatical extremes of a religion, your father took on the role and carried that load for a longtime for allot of people = for good = as an ambassador of light, understanding, joy = freedom.

As a Tibetan Monk who had studied the Tibetan Book of the Dead or a master Yogi like Paramahansa Yogananda, Babaji, or like His Holiness The Dalai Lama, Martin Luther King, Jr., Carlos Castaneda = your father is part of that pure light = that pure understanding = that pure energy.

That’s why I do not view you as being in his shadow = however = being in his light………… and growing toward his love…………his clear light………….

I knew you were cool when you had Ween as producers on your album.

Shine on now

Best of the Roses,
