I met Eight finger Eddie in 1996. Had dinner with him at Joe banana's in Anjuna Beach. He was as nice as he appears. We create our own reality. Eddie did not want to get stuck in a 9-5 job for life. But if you are in a 9-5 job, it is important to find joy and gratitude in what you are doing. Mastering your job is very valuable and developing increased capacity, responsibility and accountability through work is a very valuable spiritual practice...........Karma Yoga. Eddie did many good works and helped many people so he was not just wasting his life doing nothing. RIP Eddie. Thankful that we met.

@@smoothbuddha7212 Eddie helped a lot of people in the early days of the Anjuna Beach scene....going back to the 60's. If someone didn't have food, he fed them. If they had no place to stay, he housed them. Many of those people never forgot Eddie's goodwill and so all that he gave was returned to him continuing on until he passed. Eddie was in the flow of life and so he was never without the basic needs of his existence....which were very simple there in Anjuna Beach. It didn't take much money to survive there in the earlier days. In 93 I rented a room for 50 dollars a months. You could rent a house for 100 per month. A simple Indian meal was 50 cents or less. Eddies form of currency was goodwill towards others......

I once asked Eddie what his thoughts were when he came to India first time, expecting an "enlighted" answer of sorts, or something exotic. His answer made me laugh, he said: "I thought GREAT, now I NEVER have to WORK again".

There's this autobiographical book called: Flash ou Le Grand Voyage, about the hippie trail from Europe to India and Nepal in 1969. The protagonist, Charles Duchaussois met Eddie amongst the hippies in Kathmandu. Everything was wild back then. He said Eddie danced around graciously with a vietnamese and an african american GI on the lam from Vietnam in a restaurant called the Cabin. Eddie was living between the beach in Goa and Nepal. Later he and most of the hippies are expelled from Nepal, and that's the last we see of him on the book. It's great that he continued living how he wanted for so many years, I'm glad I found these vídeos of him on youtube.

So basically give up on any search for answers because there aren’t any.. karma doesn’t exist.. isn’t that What’s known as Absurdism today?
