My Projects

1. Art exhibit:

At first, the title of my Art Exhibit is "Facing my Nightmare." The reason, is that , once in my life, I was so scared to face and even remember my failures. However, now that I have a better way to achieve peace of mind, once in a while, I have now better control of my emotions, giving me endurance, patience, vigor, determination and protection from the distructive effects of embarrassing situations.

What I have told you is not a mere theory -- I have tested it myself already when I was in precarious circumstances. In my effort to promote my projects, I have gone to many offices already, and sometimes I didn't find my situation easy at all. There were times that I blushed but, just a little, that I can easily recover my composure in a few seconds.

I know my life well. And I admit, I had a problem with my behavior before -- because, I could get easily upset when things go awry, which only ruined my plans, but I just didn't care. This kind of behavior is not easy to handle with, hence, I was exhausted.

Thanks to the heavens that I now know the difference between a troubled mind and a peaceful one, and their emmediate effects. I think I am now developing a positive behavior called, "Self-confidence." Appearing in front of an audience is not easy to many. But, astonishingly, I am now determined to dare plunged myself into it, and see what's the result, but I know of course that I am capable of doing this, because I have very important messageto tell.

2. Lectures:

I am now accepting invitation as a motivational speaker for a donation. Anybody who is interested with my service can email me.

Also, presently, I am also looking for sponsors on my planned Radio Program. I need at least five sponsors so it won't cost a lot. The said program will be initially aired once a week. Donations must not be less than 350 pesos a week to finance other expenses. I will advertize the sponsor's business twice, at the start of the program and just before it ends. Interested party can reach me through my email. If possible, I want to meet my sponsors in person.

3.Radio Program:

My radio program (AM band) will discuss on

a) human behavior, especially in times of crisis, and how to cope with them.

b) Motivational Techniques, taken from selected biographical stories.

c) the study of human bodily functions that affects our behavior.

d) different ways to relaxation.

4. Publication of my Book:

5. Invitation to researchers (Experiment on muscle relaxation):

6. Blogs and Website:
           My blogs are not yet fully organized but I am, little-by-little, continually working on that.
           About my website, presently, I have a parked website which I made a long time ago, the problem, it's not working well; anyway, you can try it. A new one will be constructed soon.

Art Exhibit

Mostly, the materials that housed the exhibit were not bought, but utilized discarded materials. Even the paints I used to add beauty to the place where left-over paints, they cost nothing. So I see to it that before you enter the inner chamber you are welcomed by a message pasted on a raised small wooden board. It reads like this,

"The room you are facing is made out of discarded materials. It is difficult to imagine that I was able to assemble them without so much hassle, since each of them seemed to fit harmoniously with each other. If woods could talk, perhaps they would say "We are here to build a place for you." Oh, thanks to the heavens that they won't talk that way, for if they do, I could have thrown them away."

Eyes that see through the Darkness

The painting on the left is my first computer painting entitled "Eyes that see through the Darkness." This is one of my series of paintings I called "Miracle Happens Everyday." In my Art Exhibit at home, I have this caption just below the painting:

"One night, I was standing beside a cemented wall. There was silence all around, and the night was lit by the passing moon above a starry, darkened skies that cast eerie shadows on all sides. By instinct, I turned to see what's on the wall beside me, as if a mural painting on a wall -- there was the distinct dark figure of my cat, calmly sitting amidst the darkness."


I have already designed a simple flier for the Art Exhibit that I will soon distribute to the public. It contains plain text and a sketch of its location. The message goes like this:

"CELESTIAL CONSCIOUSNESS -- tapping hidden resources through Spontaneous Art"

Art can raise the consciousness. Raised consciousness opens up hidden talents and peace of mind towards success and abundance.

Celestial Consciousness Art Exhibit is presented in multilingual format: English, Pilipino, Cebuano, French, and Japanese. This event is open for donation to raise funds. Viewing time is from 9:00 A.M. to 12:00 Noon, Monday to Friday.

Come and See this rare event to experience the thrill of journeying into one’s failure-laden life towards self-discovery. Hence, this event is educational and inspiring, for it depicts one's unquenchable thirst for knowledge in the midst of turmoil. Without doubt, you can learn a lesson from this Exhibit.

Place of Exhibit: #3 San Diego Drive Bahay Toro, Q.C.

Time: 9:00 A.M. - 12:00 NOON, Monday to Friday.

LOCATION OF MY ART EXHIBIT

My painting on the left shows the location of my Art Exhibit.
The address is #3 San Diego Drive Bahay Toro, Quezon city Metro Manila. However, as what I heard, San Diego Drive is not listed in the official map of  Quezon city. This is so, since the developer of the place has forgotten to submit the name to the municipality.

The location of the art exhibit is also where my home is.  You can also view the map for wider perspective.

Note: The art exhibit is along Congressional Ave., near the intersection of Mindanao Ave. and Congressional Ave.
At the moment, I can't utilize fully the map's features to show directions -- but, I am learning. And hopefully, one day I can make it easier for you to understand.

VERY IMPORTANT: 
                  For the reason that I am about to move from this place, the Art Exhibit is temporarily viewable through appointment. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Daring Thoughts Streams in

I never thought before that Peace of Mind is the only tool needed to access other positive qualities and to be aware of talents that we don't even know we possessed.

In my experience, aside from happiness, motivation and other good qualities that go along with it,I had this urge from nowhere to make a daring move to write a book, in times when it was impossible for me to write one. The details of this is included in my book.

At the moment, I am waiting for an opportunity for its publication. I keep informing people about this book whenever I can. Fortunately, my projects (for I have several projects at this time), have opened up communication with my friends that had been cut off, which I did intentionally for I really have nothing worth telling them anyway. Now, I have things to tell them already, so I sent them emails like the one below, which is a response actually, telling about my activities:

" Kuya Pascal, I have not recieved any Email from Eric yet but, anyway, I am already happy that he, at least, knows what I am doing now.

My book is partly biographical. In the first part, I talked about my childhood days, my subsequent travels for my college education, my failures, my life as a tramp on the streets of Manila, Verlanie Foundation, people I met that had great impact in my life, my climb to the summit of Mt. Banahaw (Eric knows about this one, this is a very interesting story, at least for me) and my discovery of a technique that changed my behavior entirely.

The second part details the technique I am personally using to bring myself in wonderful state of pure peace of mind.

This is really a book on how to be successful. The first few titles that I came up with carry terms like success, riches, abundance, etc. But then, I discarded them, because of my present status -- how can I talk on those subjects and let people believe me when, in fact, at the moment I am still struggling financially. This is also the very reason why I am pushing myself to be known to the public and have my own name.

Nevertheless, I seemed to settle on the title "from Darkness to the Light," which I think is an appropriate description of my life.

My work is a 300 plus pages book. I have already done the designing of the cover and page layout, which was of course daunting at first.

Equally exciting is the story behind the writing of the book, which I could only term [describe] as a miracle. I really believe that my work is bound to succeed based on signs I saw during its making.

I am thinking of publishing a blog. If it's already worth browsing, I will in form you.

As I am rereading this email that I am writing to you I came to like the message it contents [contained], so I am thinking of putting a portion of this email to my blog soon. Thanks for reading. ANSELMO"

In my present financial condition, it is quite astonishing that I feel enthusiastic to push through my projects when, in fact, I have virtually nothing to support them.

Hoping to solve this, I went to private and government offices to solicit support. Even if I don't get positive response at the moment, it is already a good training ground for self expression. And I am so determined that my voice will be heard in the near future. Below is a letter I sent to televesion stations inviting them to my place hoping for a possible coverage of my Art Exhibit.

" I am 42 years old. Presently, I have an Art Exhibit at home, which is housed in a museum-like environment. I have paintings; rare objects; old books; plant arrangement, a Japanese inspired creation; poems, my own compositions; and, etc.

What is surprising with this work is the fact that I am not an Artist. I have not painted a thing before through inspiration. I came up with the idea of painting because of the book I wrote. I was hoping then, for I am extremely poor, that I could earn money and also make my book project known to others by setting up an Art Exhibit -- hoping that I would meet someone who is willing to help me publish my work.

Unintentionally, the results of my painting left me dumbfounded -- each painting I came up with were stunningly awesome to my eyes. The paintings seemed to be telling me something -- very meaningful. I called my paintings "Translating Vague Images," because, mostly, I don't have to think what I have to paint -- I just have to wait for an image to appear voluntarily on the canvas and that's where I get my inspiration. If I were born an Artist, perhaps I wouldn't feel the degree of enthusiasm to let others see what I had done, like what I am experiencing now with my paintings. And, because I am not an Artist, perhaps there is really something about these paintings that need to be appreciated.

Majority of my paintings were done on crude materials like wooden board (salvaged from the trash), folder, and carton. Also, I make use of some left-over of latex paints that I fished out from the garbage dump. Other paintings were done in colored pencils, drawn on either carton or folder. And, lastly, I have computer paintings created using Microsoft Paint software, of which I attached the caption "Miracle Happens Everyday."

I surrounded my environment with plants and greenery, which add pleasing atmosphere and mystery to the place. I used various languages for my exhibit: English, French, Japanese, Pilipino, and Cebuano.

I called my Art Exhibit "Facing my NIghtmare, the Exhibit," with the theme: "From Nothing to Something." I really believe that this Art Exhibit will interest a lot of people if given a good exposure to the public. Especially that once, I studied in the universities through a scholarship program, believing I would be in the brighter side of life. No wonder, when I found myself hurled to live on the streets of Manila for quite a long time, I wanted to die. Next, to DSWD (RAC, "Reception And Action Center"), then, to an Orphanage, until I discovered something that changes my view, of myself and the world, and my reaction to negative environmental stimulus. My life's story has been woven in my Art, and, will not only entertain, but offers inspiration to all, for it depicts my unquenchable thirst for knowledge.

Furthermore, given financial support, I am sure I can do better than what I had just accomplished. Because of dire circumstances at the moment, I need help to make my work known to the public.

Aside from this Art Exhibit, I am already working on the feasibility of a Radio Program and Motivational Lectures.

Please, don't have in mind that my work is just a plain rubbish. Please...have someone visit and see my work before deciding to reject my endeavor as a piece of nonsense. Sincerely yours, Mr. Anselmo Malugao"
