Back in 2010, while researching the benefits of supposed “sound healing”, our family started sampling and playing new musical instruments.
We came across these “crystal singing bowls” and after practicing, Lucia and the kids performed and we recorded with 3 microphones to “studio record” ALL of the bowls playing at once and individually, plus just have a little fun. A few months later, I added this recording as a Bonus Track to an Buddhist Monks and “spiritual seekers” outreach to introduce the gospel of Jesus Christ. Hundreds and sometimes thousands of people worldwide started downloading our music, “borrowing” it for YouTube projects and other flattering usages. At the same time, we also started our venture into singles and albums consumer direct marketing and promotional campaigns on all social media mediums, but found YouTube to be one of the best platforms for millions of amazing listeners for free. We made 1000 times more from people stealing our spoken word and music compared and monetizing to how many people ever bought one album or single. Why? Because we claimed nearly 100,000,000 videos with more than 1 Billion views with 100 tracks we created…we were BLOWN away at how many videos were using our “Meditation Music”.
Back in March of 2019, our main “Your Strategy Coach” YouTube channel receiving millions of views per month and just 2,200 subscribers, sharing positive messages, projects, charities and even home movies that was sending me 5-10 business coaching clients per month was gone. We have reached out to YouTube without response and fully support The President’s Anti-Censorship pursuits against digital giants such as Google, Twitter and Facebook.
Our audio and visual productions of videos of speeches, poetry or sound work never received the Lionshare of views on YouTube. In fact, some very well known producers of Motivational and Inspirational video channels all started sampling. Others would create AMAZING visual representations to express visually what we wrote or produced. It was flattering, but there were YouTube channels generating $10,000+ per month on using our work without even acknowledging the author or producer. Frustrating and perplexing…so rather than complain, we sought out to solve the “audio theft” problem of the music industry…and CRUSHED IT!
It taught us some challenging lessons, realizations of potential millions in stolen usage, but without the knowledge of our artist rights, we wouldn’t have ever generated a dime. We learned the lesson through the struggle, ALL THE GLORY TO GOD for my knowledge of music production, artist management and copyright law were able to generate and recover nearly ALL monetized views and usage worldwide.
We learned through great trials and tribulations including the theft of our original works “More Was Never Enough” by some Muslim DJ from Texas to create EDM/Dance music for TikTok and Commercials all over Asia. There are many “DJs” doing this on YouTube and then selling internationally without ANY of the licensing rights or proper partnerships, it’s not the way. Honesty, integrity, fair compensation and transparency are invaluable in business relationships and these business deals can never begin with theft.
I will say that my lesson for NOT protecting our music, turned me into Jerry Maguire for our 120 tracks and 20+ albums (and growing, see NEW RELEASE below) with 5 sources of revenue rather than 1-2 which the Tunecore’s of the world offered. Several years went by and nothing, but once I became an ASCAP Artist and Management Label, we found literally millions of videos, views, plays and outright theft recovery and finally started getting paid!
One of the recent surprise blessings (all the glory to God) came in from ASCAP from “Orquestra Antiga De Meditação” recording used in Brazil on a Portuguese Health, Family and Fitness network television show!
Because of the amazing amount of comments, messages requesting to download the original tracks, we have re-released the original album in Portuguese with a copy of the Gospel of John which best explains “Jesus is the Word, the Word was with God and the Word was God”, our savior and redeemer.

Please consider any sales as direct support for our Christian Outreach campaigns. We must trust that the Word of God converts souls as the Bible says, so sharing the Good News and Gospel of Jesus Christ with the World is what we were commanded to do. If one person gets to hear the gospel in Brazil due to searching for our album from being featured on TV, all the glory to God.
Since we found that every single one of our tracks gets stolen and uploaded to millions of dark websites around the world, we always add the Gospel to nearly every album we release to ensure that even in their theft and assisting others to steal, God is glorified, hopefully they will ALL repent and trust in Him alone, for we have ALL sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Seeking the lost requires us sometimes to leave the 99…

Last weekend, I gave an impromptu speech teaching youth competitors how to be leaders in their community and at school. I explained to them about Autism (see below for description) briefly, but realized it is a national campaign to help TEACH our children to be friends with and stick up for kids with special needs including Autism, Down Syndrome or any other Physically or Mentally disabilities. When I say “stick up”, I’m not saying a physical altercation whatsoever, I mean, the confidence a martial artist displays is respected and revered. Your positive energy and actions will be replicated by others, together YOU can make a difference by being a better, nicer and more friendly person to everyone you meet.
I’ve seen how mean children can be and I want to help change that, one tournament, 250+ children at a time, at UFC Fan Expos and all Grapplers Quest events worldwide. It’s my new mission. As Grapplers or Jiu Jitsu fighters, we are competitors, but we are still Martial Artists at our core. We already stand out in the community as respected and possibly revered individuals, YOU ARE LEADERS! Treat people well and be the example others will follow, giving a better life for those with special needs and it will bless your heart too.
Stand out in the crowd, you already do – now channel that energy towards making the world a better place. Grapplers Quest donates $1 per competitor worldwide to Autism Radio, a 501c3 charity helping families dealing with Autism every day. Be good to one another.
Your Grappling Promoter,
Brian J. Cimins
ABOUT AUTISM:
Autism is a brain disorder that affects communication, social interaction, and creative play. The numbers are rising fast and getting worse every year – today, 1 in 91 children are diagnosed with Autism including my 8-year-old nephew, Jonathan. We are currently raising money for one special family to help them build a Safe Padded Room for their child, iPads for Autism Classrooms and other Biomedical treatments. Learn more about Autism and to make donations please visit: http://AutismRadio.org – we appreciate your support.
Brian Cimins: Mr. Rorion Gracie, in less than 3 weeks, your son will participate in what many are calling the Grappling Superfight of the Year. How does it make you and your family feel to participate at the premier submission grappling event in America, Grapplers Quest on November 6th in Las Vegas? Any comments about Grapplers Quest events in general?
Rorion Gracie: Grapplers Quest has earned its reputation as one of the best no gi competions around and has done a lot to promote the grappling arts.
Brian Cimins: Is it true that your father, Helio Gracie will be attending this event? Will you and Helio be available for photos and autographs after the match?
Rorion Gracie: Yes, my father, Helio is attending Grapplers Quest. We always try to accomodate such requests.
Brian Cimins: How long has your son, Ryron been training for this match and what are you doing differently to prepare for Marc Laimon?
Rorion Gracie: Ryron has been doing his regular tournament routine.
Brian Cimins: What does competing against one of the best grapplers in America mean for you, your son and his career?
Rorion Gracie: If he thinks he is one of the best, he should agree to fight with no poins and no time limit. As for the significance of this fight in Ryron’s career, it it just another match.
Brian Cimins: Please comment on the following statement made by Marc Laimon, “I stopped training there (at the Torrance Academy) after I saw the Pan-Ams in 1996. I saw jiu-jitsu I never saw before, but I was told it was too advanced for me, by Rorion Gracie. It was also too advanced for his students who had been training for years. I personally felt he did not know this advanced jiu-jitsu, and saying it was “too advanced” was a cop out. So I stopped training there, and went out to find my own path and seek out what jiu-jitsu really was, and is becoming.”
Rorion Gracie: I never said to anyone that any jiu-jitsu “was too advanced,” that is a joke. I have discouraged our students from competing in regular BJJ tournaments because of its ridiculous rules. I still think that any competitor who relies on scoring points and then stalling until the time expires does so because he has no confidence in his possibilities. I guess we will find out soon enough how much Marc has learned since he went on his own path…
Brian Cimins: Does it concern you that Marc Laimon knows your style of Gracie Jiu Jitsu?
Rorion Gracie: Can you imagine if he didn’t?
Brian Cimins: Please comment on the overall IGJJF rules of the match and the following statement by Marc Laimon, “I would like to know exactly what Ryron will wear. Training for Gi and no gi are 2 different sports. He already has special Gracie (IGJJF) rules, why not tell me what I am fighting against. Imagine if you show up to the world series, and the umpire says, “Today we will play using a softball”. It is the same game, but the dynamics change dramatically. It should be stated what your opponent will wear!
Rorion Gracie: Marc, regardless of Ryron’s outfit, expect the worst!
Brian Cimins: A 30 minute time limit? Will this help or hurt Ryron?
Rorion Gracie: I wish Marc, who predicted victory, would show his confidence by agreeing to no points and no time limit. Last man standing kind of a deal, I am sure the public wouldn’t mind.
Brian Cimins: What do you think of the slamming rule? Why allow it? Do you think it will assist in the growth of the future of jiu jitsu if people get hurt, like Cameron Earle did?
Rorion Gracie: I think it is an important rule! Aside from punching and kicking, people shoud train Jiu-Jitsu on a regular basis to prepare for real fighting. Cameron (Earle) is a good fighter who made a mistake. If he learned from it, the lesson was priceless.
Brian Cimins: What would you tell people who are on the fence whether or not to attend this tournament to witness this fight LIVE?
Rorion Gracie: They should come (to Las Vegas) and see a great match.
Brian Cimins: What is your prediction of the match?
Rorion Gracie: I expect Ryron to do well as always.
Brian Cimins: Any sponsors to thank?
Rorion Gracie: Varig Airlines, WorldSize, Premier Chiropractic
