Toward a World that Works for Everyone
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 […]
This article is intended to be part of an ascension ethnography. (1) Hence it’s more detailed than normal, especially the footnotes. I apologize if it’s found to be too lengthy or detailed. It’s embarrassing to walk around with very little memory. The only thing that makes it bearable is that most of my friends are […]
With the world appearing headed for (a mock) world-warlike confrontation, I find myself in a world apart, in the midst of an insight, scribbling away to catch my thoughts. I watched the insight or realization happen. In fact I’m still in it. A little background. Not too much! I’ve taken up a hobby of painting […]
Nov 27, 2022 https://www.assistthespirit.com/a-doorway-within-wide-open/ I stood at the end of a pier, drinking it in… The snow-capped Olympics glistened over Puget Sound from end to end on this particularly warm evening in April. Rigging on hundreds of boats tinkled casually amid an occasional seagull’s cry, and in the distance … as is common if you […]
This experience happened perhaps a week ago but the write-up was nudged off the publication schedule by 9/11 coverage. Again I continue ethnographically while I regain my health and momentum. I’m going through an experience at the moment that I can only compare to moulting. Or perhaps cracks opening in my body and my body […]
I can now see counterproductive behavior patterns as they arise. Before I committed to the divine qualities, they’d arise largely invisibly. That was because I approved of them. Now they work against my new commitment and so are in conflict with me. When they arise now and seek my attention, I don’t agree to give […]
This is an entry in my Ascension ethnography. Jesus said: “Where you have need to turn, my brothers and sisters, is inward, deep to the core of your being. I do not speak of the personality that is present in this lifetime but rather of the soul essence, the full design that has been activated […]
by Digger Barr I step forward, reaching with my foot. I set it down gently and feel the rock meet my skin. With my eyes closed, I can feel the rock become a part of me. Not like an attachment in my body but becoming part of my awareness. I step again and […]
Good morning, everyone. It is Dec 29 2021 and welcome to Planet Earth. My morning started early as most of my awakenings do. My super loving cat jumped up on the bed as she always does. Time to curl up close and purr with no regard to whether I was awake or not. As long […]
Dedicated to my brother, Paul. If I can indulge myself in a fantasy for a moment amid all the hubbub at this time of year, on top of the lockdowns, child rescue, sexual harassment, climate change, and the fall of the cabal…. I forgot Evergrande? Chinese dams breaking? Weather-warfare tornadoes? Excuse me. On top of […]
If it’s all about how we feel, as I believe it is for us humans, then what am I doing, in a take-charge manner, to see that I feel my best (as defined by me)? No, I don’t mean anything external. I’d like to keep our attention on the internal. It doesn’t cost anything and […]
