Family Scars Are the Deepest

Asa explains the process behind Diamond Water, why Reza needed his friends in Great Neck, and praises MJ for taking GG to task.

Jan 24

Ahhhh Diamond Water. My entire life I have been very connected to my inner/higher self. Mediation and prayer are a great part of my life.

It's very important to me to physically pray/chant/meditate at the water facility over Diamond Water before we bottle it. There have been numerous studies that water molecules are affected by words and energies. I want Diamond Water to be infused with Love Energy so I will infuse it with it before bottling. Purity, health, joy, love, life is what I wish for us all.

I loved seeing Jessica at Mike's shabbat dinner. She is a sweet heart and I knew Mike's parents would love her even though they really want him to marry a Jewish Persian girl. Times are changing and our parents are learning to be more open minded about these things. While I understand that it's "easier" to marry into your own race/religion, love is love and sees no color, religion, or race. Love above all.

NYC and Great Neck were awesome. It was so special being with Reza's family and finally meeting everybody in person. It was such an emotional weekend for Reza and therefore for all of us. Reza, Mike, MJ, and I cried like three times that weekend talking about his grandmother, father, and mother.
When I see Reza crying at lunch with his dad it breaks my heart, but I'm so incredibly proud of how his relationship with his father has evolved. Family scars are deepest and sadly they often don't get resolved. But both of them have been so courageous because of their deep love for each other to come forward and reach out for each other.
So amazing.

Asa,

I don't understand how you claim to be so spiritually and forgiving. You were a bully this season and you didn't own it and here you are telling GG to own up to her behavior. You were just as much at fault for the fight at the pool. I also wondered if your trying to get good energy for your diamond water from the scenes we saw how does that work when you have so much negativity? Also you say G.G. didn't apologize, however if you recall she tried. She invited you to dinner with her and M.J. You decided to blow the dinner off. So you were the one that decided not to show up and not get your apology. So why do you keep harping on it. You seemed to just want to hurt M.J. and G.G. this season. I know G.G. has anger issues to work on so why provoke her? You aren't as nice as you seemed last season. You were just so mean. Do you regret any of your behavior and do you own up to alot of the problems with G.G.?

Asa, you are the Alpha and Omega! I absolutely love you! You are the Persian version of myself and i appreciate you and your unique gift to the world. Thank you for making Diamond Water and bringing a voice to Persian Pop. You have a mission and meaning in life. don't let any of the foolishness or negativity dicsourage you from being your true most authentic self!

I will stop watching if you and Reza are still on this show next season. As it is I was seriously going to stop watching this season because you two are a joke and the biggest hypocrites and really couldn't stomach seeing you both on screen.  

For being so spiritual you are very judgemental and yes GG may be ugly on the inside but she doesn't try to hide behind being so enlightened.  And that whole scene when you were buying the diamonds made you seem very phony. 

 

REALLY BRAVO NO MORE ASA AND REZA OR I WILL NO LONGER WATCH SHAHS OF SUNSET.

Asa, I thank you for bringing your spirituality and talent to all of us.  You are truly an Ambassador in the realm of bringing awareness to Persian-Americans, which I knew so little about before.  I am intrigued, and having a bit of Persian envy, LOL!  You are love and light, so shine on!  Your star will ever brighten, and I can't wait to see what you do next!

Asa you like to drop names of famous people, like that makes you something more than you are,  But actually this season, it has come to light how phony you really are.  i went from thinking you were really fabulous to thinking very little of you this season.  yes GG is WACK but you are not any better. you are clearly not who you want people to see you as.  I wish that you would get back to being real, I am sad to see you act this way towards any suffering human.  oh well, you will when this doesn't work, hope you don't loose all your fans before then.  Just keepin it real for you, which you profess to do, but don't

Wow Asa, some serious hate going on in the following blogs.  I think you're fun and are different.  I don't know anything about your nationality but what I read; so , with that said, Bravo has opened a door for me to see it in a more human manner.  I know it is a show and that things are blown up but it is interesting [lack of a better word] to see your inner beliefs and a few of your customs.  Yes, I enjoy you on the show and feel sorry others don't.  Maybe some people should get a life for themselves and then they would take "reality" shows for what they are, a show to entertain the viewer.  God Bless, good luck with your singing [which I enjoy] and will be watching the reunion. 

SteffieJ 122 pts

Asa you are so full of  it.  GG may have been in your  face, but you PUSHED GG FIRST. You got PHYSICAL and AGGRESSIVE FIRST. I don't understand why no one else in the group is holding you accountable, but it's on film. That's what I saw anyway. You are the WHACK one. Seriously, honey, take responsibility for your acid tongue and insulting words to GG's date that are THE ROOT cause of GG;s emotional confrontation with you,  and TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for not controlling your own anger AND AGGRESSIVELY pushing GG. I seriously believe that if you had not attacked GG in that way, then it would have never become physical by GG. YOU caused that. You pushed her so hard she fell to the ground, and you won't even own that.

greekgirl 752 pts

@SteffieJ I agree but Asa just isn't getting that. Also, even though she claims to have been complimenting Omid for NOT getting a nose job and changing his ethnic features, GG DID get a nose job and therefore Asa was insulting her for doing so. Seemed to me that's what GG was trying to explain and Asa just wasn't hearing it. So frustrating to watch. And btw, if you insult someone, even if it wasn't intended, apologize for goodness sakes! That whole mess could have been avoided. Asa was the instigator. If she came to the reunion accepting responsibility, people would soften. She's getting back what she did to GG tenfold now. All that spirituality, yet she can't see through the fog of her own ego.

WHAT HAPPEN TO YOU??   Last year I was Team Asa, now you have turned into a MEAN GIRL....

fishgirl@ec.rr.com 349 pts

Asa - You seem to believe that you are so much smarter than everyone else, and that if you keep telling everyone how cool you are, and how serene and centered you are, that they won't be able to see you for the backstabbing poser that you are in real life. You should be ashamed of how you treated MJ in Mexico - it was horrible to watch you betray her in front f everyone, and even worse to watch you look at Reza & Lilly to see if they would back you. You are the type of mean girl (woman) who's spiteful nature comes from spending your youth on the outside looking in. I think you've always wanted to be "cool" and were probably not accepted or well liked in high school because you were so strange. Now, as an adult, you are still seeking that validation from your peers. It's obvious how much you crave Reza's approval, and you seem to want to take MJ's place as Reza's best friend. You talk a lot about MJ being jealous of your friendship with Reza, but I think it is you who has probably always been jealous of MJ, and you set out to ruin her relationship with Reza. You are so smug and self-righteous, and you are cruel instead of honest. The things you say, in front of everyone, to MJ, under the guise of honesty, and wanting the best for her out of love, are NOT the things one says to a person they care about. The things you say destroy people emotionally. You betrayed MJ. You do not have the natural ability to be funny and fun like MJ, and I think you are crazy with jealousy. Your sad attempts to turn the tables by accusing MJ of being the jealous hater, only shine the light of truth more brightly on the fact that it is you who wants to be the star! Your concert was ridiculous.

cappy69 212 pts

Asa, you have an equal part is the GG saga; you have a tendency to say things out of your mouth that are reckless! NO ONE has the right to physically put their hands on you OR anyone else for that matter. You cannot go around spewing hurtful comments and not think you have the final word. You attack , and then whena person comes back at you, you play victim. We all know GG has problems, but are you REALLY helping her? Watch your tonge young lady, it's one thing to speak up for yourself, its another to have a smart mouth and think it goes unnoticed or "checked"!

meemzb 22 pts

I will begin a ban on ASAwater jsut because she is such a mean girl pretending to be a cool girl.  Seriously.  i ban Asa.. so sad of her to claim all this holy holistic and humanitarian style life meanwhile she uses all those around her to only forward her wants and wishes in the world.  Very humitarian wouldnt you say???

meemzb 22 pts

Asa never allows GG to get anywhere She pushs GG's buttons just for fun and humor to make an ass and she does it so well and she knows it and then she plays victim.  she's the worst "humanitarian" out there!  Asa is not a cool person nor does she represent the Persian people very well with her "asa"ness" I have a ton of persian friends in California and they are all so ashamed of Asa and how she is they just ignore her and allow her to be, to sad she cant allow that for GG. Seriously she needs to look within a bit more before the book has completely closed on her. 

meemzb 22 pts

ASA is a mean girl by sidebar, she tells her friends that they have to chose between her and their other friends.  If you cant be nice to someone ASA or accept them, its not ok for you to tell everyone else that you arent going to be around if they chose to be a friend with their own friends.  You suck at being a humanitarian.  Your so selfish and sucky!  Seriously.  

cinchy 102 pts

Asa could have had enough class to accept psycho GG's apology.  I wouldn't want to be friends with GG either, but Reza brought them together just to have GG apologize and for Asa to accept. 

 

They didn't have to leave the dinner party as friends.  They just had to meet eye to eye for their mutual friend Reza.

just so you know,ive taken ambien and THANK GOD my husband was here with me.i have NO memory of it. apparently i went out and got into his truck. halliciuations,talk to my daughter with no memory of ir,slurring of words. He actually stayed home with me the next day from work because he was so worried. I  think Ambien should be taken off of the market.but MJ is telling the truth,im sure of it!

Your mother is such a wonderful person! You, my dear, were not impressive in the least except for your gall (rhymes with something else) to think diamond water and singing are your outlets to best contribute to the persian american scene. Not convinced that your crowd is so different from mine or so convinced by your talent as you seem to think. I thought that collage pillow you fabricated was something saleable! You are mean to call anyone whack and expect dialogue much less an apology. The word suits you in the sense of being out there in a contrived and really out of touch way.

I like you but enough with the goofy hats, scarves and earrings. Your outfit choice for the concert- not good. The diamond water thing seems hokey. Your third eye chakra was feeling the diamond until you realized it was 300k. Then, all of a sudden, your third eye chakra felt the diamond that you learned was in your budget. Come on! Don' t tad any crap from GG.

Asa and Reza are so messy-they are the s--t stirrers-they talk about drama and yet they are the two starting it... Asa, needs to go away or I will have to quit watching-I can't stand watching her act so high and mighty-She thinks GG is crazy-has she watched herself ....

gibsontara34 765 pts

Loved you last season, liked you this season til you wouldnt let GG apologize. And I am NO GG fan let me tell you. But, it takes A LOT of courage to apologize and the way you humiliated her when she tried to apologize is disgusting. Ofcourse things wouldn't have been the same, she wasn't asking to be your bff, but you could have atleast been decent and listened to her. Don't like you anymore Asa.

cinchy 102 pts

ITA.  I still like Asa, but Reza brought them together, that night, not for them to be bff, but to let GG apologize and have Asa just accept the apology (without thereafter becoming friends again).

Henna was for the hands and feet.  A herb was used for neutralizing negativity.  Sage is common for that, but I'll have to watch again and see what she says she uses.

A word of advice.....do not quit your day job.  For real.  Are you sort of delusional or what?  Why did you fear allowing GG to get a few words in?  You were trying to cause her to "lose it".  I actually have more sympathy for the girl now.  You seem to be devious and manipulative......not my favorite traits.

Pasadena47 587 pts

You my dear are so NOT anyone's Pop Priestess.  As a professional performer in my opinion, you were mediocre at best, and certainly you could use some lessons concerning your on stage presence and costuming.  That outfit was like a jogging outfit and just because you added some wings did not make it presentable.  Pitiful, just pitiful..

 

I am surprised Andy even showed-up it was so bad.  Go peddle your water because a singer/performer you are not.  Sorry Asa, with all the real Persian Talent out there you fall short.

Asa Asa Asa....I must say that I was disappointed in watching you this season.  I don't like violence in any form.  But you were just as abusive as GG was.  You insulted Omid at the dinner and at the pool party when she tried to explain to you that your comments were offensive.  You dismissed her and got defensive.  You talk about how she was physical with you but if you watch the espisode you shoved GG and were all in her face.  You say GG is wacked but in fact you need to own up to what you have down as well.  You are not completely without blame in the situation.

Please Bravo fire Asa and Reza. These two mean girls are on a power trip. GG has tried to apologize and they are not wanting it. I believe it's cause both are jealous of GG. Asa says hurtful and mean things to people and then acts surprise when people get mad. Like when she kept calling Ohmid he had a big nose. She bugged him on it many times. Then she calls MJ a drug addict. If this is a friend then I wonder how she is as an enemy. Scary !! I think she is fake and full of it. I think it's time Bravo give them a taste of their own medicine and humble those inflated mean ego of theirs. At this point I would rather just watch GG. At least she realizes her anger is her issue. She and MJ are about the only real people on this show. I change the channel each time Reza and Asa are hogging up the scene. As soon As mike or MJ or GG are given scenes I leave it on. So, Bravo listen to your fans get rid of these fake mean girls Asa and Reza!!!!

Asa, I love that you immerse yourself in the Persian culture by wearing the jewelry, head wear, clothing, etc.  I have spent many hours on the internet trying to find not only the jewelry that you wear, but the clothing that you wear and can't find it anywhere.  Please point me in the right direction so that I can purchase jewelry and clothing like you wear.  If not, your going to have to open up a Persian store so that I can order the clothes, jewelry, and accessories over the internet.  You would make good money with that one Asa.

Asa-You go girl! People that have made the comments about the water you're producing don't understand just how sacred water is to some cultures. Being Native American we were taught at a young age that since time immemorial water is LIFE! Period. Without it none of us would be alive. In our culture we drink rose water as part of our Religious practice and we also cleanse our bodies with it. I have found similarities in Persian and Native American cultures and traditions through watching Shahs. Crystals, gems, gold, silver and diamonds hold energy and have been used for centuries as healing agents. Granted you're not the first to use Diamond water, just the first to produce it for the masses. Also love your music, clothes and how you carry yourself. MJ trying to be the go between for you and GG was a huge mistake. You gave her (GG) how many chances? I wouldn't have shown up either, a waste of time and energy for her to apologize. She wouldn't have meant it, she has no idea what respect means. You loving what makes your people different, ie large noses, thick brows or whatever was a compliment. Saw it in your art. Like me, I love what makes my people different from other cultures and people, be it accents, noses, eyes or language dialects. Its all awesome. I love your bangles, dresses and your thick black hair! You rock yourself and don't need friends like GG or even MJ who are diluted by alcohol, low self esteem and jealousy of what you are and how you live!

pretty cool i like the flair you bring to the show! i think you were correct in the gigi situation because physical violence = hell no. i also really like your style! though you may be a bit out there some of the comments are too mean! learn to respect other people's business ventures and be tolerant of people that have different ways of life then you. just because she is spiritual does not make her crazy.

keep doing you! you should make a fashion blog or something there are a few pieces of your wardrobe i would love to know where you got them.

AND the way she talks is even worse "wack" "homie" ridiculous!!!

You've really disappointed me this season, Asa! You were not the laid back "CHILL" girl you were at the begining. I think that Pat would agree with me when I say you are CRAZY, because he seemed to want to laugh at your whole diamond water crap.

ANYWAYS, MJ rocks so don't be saying she smokes rocks on camera and shi that ain't cool girly. I can see why you are anti GG but like don't you think you are being a bit immature by holding onto the grudge this long and getting everyone one your team and basically alienating her from the group like you guys are in junior high? what a mean girl, were you like this in middle school in tehran Asa joon? I hope not. velesh kon! but i appreciate you rockin your big badonkadonk girl, you show that thang off you aint got nothing to be ashamed of. khodafes!
