Toward a World that Works for Everyone
The barrier, in a society structured as ours is, in all good efforts, money. Funding. How to pay our way in the world while we initiate something new, something that requires venture capital, something that requires major funding in a time of calculated economic downturn and social demoralization. The third volume in the series Let’s […]
As a result of writing a previous article, I saw that I was creating my joy in a moment of realization. I wondered if I couldn’t create happiness as well. So I called up happiness from my heart on the inbreath and sent it out to the world on my outbreath. And, yes, I could […]
This share will slightly disturb the chronology of the next two or three articles. In the growth movement, we’d call it a “red-hot share.” I acknowledge that growth work Kathleen has been doing in trauma therapy has likely played a role in my realization, below. I’m experiencing the most amazing gradual – and sometimes […]

The Source of Our Upsets and Their Cure From Dec. 24, 2012 https://goldenageofgaia.com/2012/12/24/the-source-of-our-upsets-and-their-cure/ “Bah, humbug. Why do I need to know about vasanas?” A vasana is a reaction […]

On the one hand, I’m reading about arrests and weather warfare and the WEF wanting to replace elections with AI, etc. On the other hand, I find myself going deeper and deeper into myself. Paradox. However the draw is unmistakable. As an awareness writer, I guess I should talk about the process, as I observe […]
When I look at all the different colors of the bottles that I paint (as a relaxing hobby), I feel greatly elevated, inspired, captivated somehow. I go up, as I said earlier, through love to bliss. The colors remind me of something. But I don’t allow myself to stay there. As I said in an […]
I came across this column on my daily read. I totally agree with what she says, though I’m just a newbie in the area Sarah points to. Happiness is a Choice Sarah Perron, Frontline News, Dec. 5, 2023 https://frontline.news/post/back-to-center-how-can-anyone-possibly-be-happy Your level of happiness is 100% up to you. It does not have to depend on […]
Long and reflective. A lot of interesting conversations going on backstage, stirred up by Matthew’s last message. One piece of feedback that arose was that I’m being too intellectual in trying to understand spiritual states. While we’re all recovering from the holidays, maybe it’s a good time to push back the chair and reflect. And […]
(Concluded from Part 1, above.) A word about awareness and “getting in touch with” something. In a three-month residential encounter group I did in 1975-6, even critics who were habitually driven to point out blemishes “got in touch with” what was driving them And it turned out they were just like everyone else except starved […]
This time is shaping up to be, not so much one in which we study and absorb, but one in which we apply what we’ve learned of and from spirituality, wherever there is social chaos. This may be a time of applied spirituality. How do we do that? Let me make some suggestions if you […]
And now for a change of pace…. I don’t know about you, but I’m always looking for what drives me. And when I think I’ve found it, I then look to see if that’s common with others, as in a pattern, trend, custom, rule, etc. Or is it just an aberrant thought, sent my way […]
I found myself dwelling on a matter we recently discussed. Let me develop this thought if you would. I want to take a train, with a roomette, across the US. I go to book a roomette on such-and-such a train, which travels daily across the continent. Our New Year’s gift to you: Download here: Growth, […]
Over the Xmas holidays I watched Groundhog Day with a friend and was greatly impacted. It made a point about core issues or vasanas that I can’t help calling attention to. “Vasanas” is a Vedantic term for the reaction patterns we’ve formed based on earlier, similar, traumatic incidents. (1) The premise of the story, […]
I’m not sure I can say “all martial arts exercises,” but I can say “all karate exercises” begin with a defensive move, never an offensive move. Always with a block, never with a kick or punch. Besides not being taught how to attack, a karate student is taught only to use the minimum force needed […]
