Toward a World that Works for Everyone
I’ve put together a booklet of essays on the self-serving bias. If you haven’t familiarized yourself with the concept and are planning to run a large corporation after the Reval, this is one you may want to have a look at.

I use my awareness to uncover the truth. Uncovering the truth in turn elevates my awareness. I’ve worked my way through ever subtler layers of egoic personality. My awareness now falls on individual words I’m using, which, I’m finding, are subtly self-serving. I go through life living events, but then constructing a self-serving story or […]
Having committed to the divine qualities, as a way of anchoring myself in them, what next confronts me are the reaction patterns that vasanas (core issues, early childhood trauma) give rise to. Up till now, I’ve been mainly concerned with my vasanas, and not with the automatic reaction patterns they give rise to. Commitment does […]
I read a passage from the Mother and it unleashed a vasana (or core issue) which I’m still in the midst of processing. Naturally I ran for the computer. The passage from the Mother was this: “You are already ‘in and out’ of the fulfillment of your ascension. “[What] is the final watermark? It is […]
The Mother said something at the beginning of the year that only becomes more relevant with the passage of time: “This sense that one is right, and one is wrong, that one is correct, and one is incorrect… I am bringing you, I am bringing this planet into the place of unity consciousness, into the […]
I watch the mainstream media do with this generation of lightworkers what it did with my generation’s Growth Movement and I’m sad. They intentionally misconstrued the aims of our movement and ridiculed us as “the Me Generation.” That derogatory term signified everything we’ve come to think of as self-serving, narcissistic, etc. In fact, as I […]
A wonderful example of the self-serving bias. (1) A picture is worth a thousand words. I said earlier that every society needs honest witnesses to the truth. (2) To be one, we have to put the truth ahead of all other considerations. Social convention and diplomacy often work against that commitment. Watch a speaker turn […]
I’m waiting for the other Presidential shoe to drop and, while I do, using the Mother’s Pause to go deeper and deeper inside. And get clearer on some matters. Here’s one. I think the vast majority of people would be very satisfied if they were happy. I think a smaller section of people would be […]
On Nov. 7, 2020, the Divine Mother gave us our mission: “This Pause gives you the time, the critical time, to go deeply within your heart and truly examine what lies there. This Pause that I give you gives the time to be the observer. You have done the participant; now be the observer and […]
Going deeper is the exact opposite of a meme war. A meme war promotes superficial thinking and a rush to judgment. I’m advocating increasing depth: Go deeper. When I go deeper and look at the current situation, I see that the first thing that’s needed, in my opinion, is for us to lower the temperature […]
My life is a workshop in awareness. My agreement is to remain aware of myself. My process involves observing, noticing, and sharing. Viewed from a cultural-historical standpoint, my notes are an Ascension ethnography – a biography or narrative of one person’s slow and gradual, and sometimes sudden, Ascension process. Right now, I’m noticing the impact […]
The story I’m making up for myself is that, because XXX is still alive, I don’t have to mourn him. I’ve known this all along but I haven’t been ready to hear it. Now I am. So I’m telling myself that we have time left. Accepting that, I’ve seen the grief lift. I’ve had a […]
Are we the best judge of our own failings? I don’t want to choose a particular “failing” because I’d immediately open the door to a passionate, perhaps angry debate. And the debates tend to skyrocket easily. Before long we’ve gone nuclear and we’re lobbing memes at each other. That isn’t what I want. You’re welcome […]
Over the years, I’ve regarded “positive thinking” as naive and simplistic. I’ve seen it as papering over reality, confining spontaneity, etc. I’ve preferred such things as “truth” and “authenticity” to it. However, recently, having had a vasana go off related to long bank lineups, I delved more deeply. I began to see that my support […]
When I move from elementary to high school on the awareness path is when I’m prepared to call myself on my own self-serving agendas, anomalies, failings, losses, defeats, etc. That’s information that the other party may need in interacting with me, that I usually keep close to my chest as a deep dark secret. The […]
