The “seed” of an idea, expectation, desire, or need is “planted,” and then grows into a pathway of actions that people take. It can seem “natural” or inevitable, but that’s rarely the case. If a different seed was planted, then a different pathway would unfold, and a different outcome would occur … How does this explain the current state of our world?
Read MoreEmbracing worldwide dysfunction: awakening and transition of our (personal and) planetary reality
Widespread recognition of dysfunction seems to rule right now. While no one is commenting on a cheerful state of environmental, political, economic, and cultural affairs, I am observing a (potentially positive) shift in the perception of personal and global reality. Interested in what can happen after (the idea of) utopia is lost? Then please read on …
Read MoreDeep and enduring inner work: what really works for ongoing growth and evolution
In this article, I discuss what really works to sustain spiritual growth and awakening. In contemporary culture, there’s been a drift from what is core to developing ongoing spiritual maturity. Many people face a disconnect between their intentions, actions, and results. …
Read More“Love is the answer” … or is it? The challenge of living with spiritual love
Once upon a time, I remember a teacher commenting that there are two different schools of spiritual development: the way of Truth and the way of Love. I would like to offer insight on the challenges (and messes) that arise in the practice of spiritual love. To help you navigate the conundrums of love that arise every day, on all scales, from personal to planetary …
Read MoreHealth, wholeness, and happiness: deeply desired and generally hard to find
The creation and sustenance of health is a foundational principle. It isn’t an activity, a location, a food or beverage, a spiritual practice, or any sort of singularity. From a spiritual and energetic perspective, I would say that the purpose of cultivating heath is the realization of wholeness in all aspects of your being …
Read MoreHidden in plain view: the seemingly “good” energy drains affecting your life
I would like to share with you an often overlooked aspect of supporting and sustaining your soul ascension path, or for that matter, any creation or life endeavor. This aspect is often passed over for a good reason — there’s a benefit somewhere to keeping it hidden. I’m not talking about some wild conspiracy theory, but the economics of energy acquisition and seemingly “good” energy drains …
Read MoreTurning reality “inside out”: the deep origins of events and manifestations
I have observed that it is possible to create infinite belief systems and ideas to describe something in a new way. I find this both fascinating — and a serious dead end on the soul ascension path. To go beyond this “wall of awareness,” I suggest a simple contemplation that you can apply to your “big” questions of existence just as easily as the ordinary (or surprising!) rhythms of daily life …
Read MoreWho is to blame for the “mess”? Understanding judgement and responsibility more deeply
Lots of messes have been cropping up in people’s lives recently.I’ve been reflecting on the stories, and seen a glistening common thread — a crisis of accountability. There is a lot of confusion about accountability in religion, New Age spirituality, and society.When faced with dealing with personal (and planetary) “messes,” what is the difference between blame, judgement, and responsibility? …
Read MoreThe under-recognized problem of catastrophe re-creation
Our reference point and expectations for a future reality can bypass or re-create catastrophe. This opening of awareness, and choice, is occurring on a mass scale right NOW. The collective outcome of these energies and thought forms will shape how the upcoming (physical) planetary transition unfolds. Understanding hidden “catastrophe particles” of consciousness reveals …
Read MoreAwakening: the evolutionary process of emerging from your reality containers
The evolution of human consciousness and higher levels of spiritual awakening have been throttled over the past decades (and even much much longer, depending upon your perspective). Why? Because, as a culture and collective, people have become extremely handicapped in their ability to perceive, choose, and create new realities. And why is that? A very key reason is …
