I seem driven to paint. And write. I swish some gold glitter glue onto a bottle I’m working on and immediately the ideas start to press themselves upon me and I have to write. I pitch bottles as fast as I paint them because there’s no more room in my apartment. If I create one, […]
Brilliant Songwriting for the Mother’s New Time
In “Karma,” Swift sings, “Ask me what I learned from all those years / Ask me what I earned from all those tears.” Imprisoned for life, Joe Garcia finds solace and meaning in Taylor Swift’s music. Listening to Taylor Swift in Prison By Joe Garcia, The New Yorker, September 2, 2023 https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-weekend-essay/listening-to-taylor-swift-in-prison The first time […]
I Reap the Harvest
I’m more and more realizing the idiocy of claiming to be an “expert.” I’m left musing after reading Marilyn’s thought-provoking history of the Council of Nicea. The only historical connection I have – even to the Christian Church broadly at that time, save a lifelong fascination with the desert fathers – is with St. Nonnus […]
Fairness: A Standard to Live By (2013)
Given yesterday’s discussion of fairness and the importance of having an agreed-upon set of principles to steer by, let me add an earlier discussion to the “social principles” mix. Hmmmm…. That’d make a good book…. Fairness: A Standard to Live By August 9, 2013 (https://goldenageofgaia.com/2013/08/09/fairness-a-standard-to-live-by/) The arrival of the global currency reset, the prosperity packages, […]
The Final Action is One of Discernment
Happy Thanksgiving, America! The law of free will says that we have the right to live freely as long as our behavior doesn’t harm another. (1) If it does, the law of karma kicks in and teaches us the costs. (2) In my view, we start out learning right and wrong from the law of […]
Digger: Spidey Sense
by Digger Barr It was a huge spider. No, It was a huge ass spider! I am not even kidding. I don’t remember screaming but apparently when the neighbor called to check if everything was okay, it must have been loud. My friend spotted it first. Well, it was her apartment so things like a […]
Zimbabwe and St. Germaine, Operation Torch the Violet Flame
Hostages and hostage takers Cathy Buckle, Letters from Zimbabwe, November 20th, 2020 http://cathybuckle.co.zw/hostages-and-hostage-takers/ Dear Family and Friends, For the past fortnight we’ve been melting in Zimbabwe as we wait for the rain to move down the continent and bring us some relief. Early in the mornings when the temperature is still around 16 degrees Celsius […]
Covid vs Karma
Do you believe in Karma? I mean really and truly believe, with all your heart? For many of us, Karma is a nice thought. It’s very convenient for the little things. What I’m getting at here though, is Karma as something fundamentally deeper. I am getting at Karma as a universal law. When you understand Karma […]
The Strongest of the Strong
Time for a change, a walk in the park, so to speak. There are many classic paths to enlightenment. I’d like to divide them into two general types: (A) Those that involve going inward and (B) those that involve going outward. Those that involve going inward include meditation proper, the awareness path (my chosen path), […]
Let’s Start with Compassion
The fear of dying or of causing the death of another – and this fear facing us and every human being around us – has galvanized the world. It has gotten the world’s attention in a way that previous chaos did not. Not the whole world’s attention. Coronavirus is happening everywhere. Everyone is facing the […]
What is the Significance of the Spiritual Spiral?
I’ve been asked to explain in more detail my fascination with the Nautilus or Ammonite (closely related, structurally similar). I’d love to. The symbol means something very special to me. I’ve described at length the vision I had on February 13, 1987. (1) Let me leave that for you to look at. But presupposing that […]
The Benefits I Get from Service
Karma yoga or the path of service is a path to God. One might think that a person in service has to forgo, say, devotion, the object of bhakti yoga, the yoga of devotion. But that’s not at all the case. I’m a worshipper of the Divine Mother and a servant of Archangel Michael. I’m […]
Contact with Pleiadian ETs ~ Part Two
These synopses have been taken from three articles linked at the end of this one. They’re the start of a series of conversations between a young, female Pleiadian named Swaruu and a woman named Gosha, and the discussions continue to this day. Cosmic Agency is the name of the YouTube channel that Gosha uses now […]
I Apologize to All the People I Never Loved
I’m getting what it might have been like for all my girlfriends before 2015. Until then, I never experienced love. OK, I did for a few brief moments a year in a rare spiritual experience, but apart from those dazzling moments, which I didn’t understand, I did not experience love. The reasons were all anchored […]
The Law of Karma Rebooted – Part 1/2
https://awakeningspark.com/ articles/the-law-of-karma-reboot Karma. We’ve all heard of it. However, not so long ago, few people knew of it. Now, even some conservative religious people use the word as part of their regular vocabulary. According to Pew Research Centre, as of 2009 nearly one quarter of Christians in America professed a belief in reincarnation – of […]
