Love: My New Religion
“Buddha was not a Buddhist, Jesus was not a Christian, Muhammad was not a Muslim. They were Teachers who taught love.” (Source) Religion overcomplicates a simple message: live from the heart. Letting love and compassion guide your thoughts, actions, and intentions is the most authentic way to connect with the Source, as rather than forced […]
Indications of a Global Shift in Consciousness
A friend recently made a good point: the youth are partly responsible for helping others become aware of the global shift in consciousness taking place. The masses need to know what’s happening, and if you’ve experienced a spiritual awakening, there must be a reason for it. Young or old, you’re here to help. The youth […]

Tap into the Source
There is a Source of energy, inspiration, and abundance we can all tap into, but we have to be aware of it first. It’s here waiting patiently for us to realize it exists, but until we can be open to it, it’ll sit at the edge of our perception and guide our lives without us […]
Higher Consciousness and the Power of “No-Mind”
No level of spiritual awareness is complete without an understanding of the state of no-mind, the denial of which has caused countless problems in the world. In the past I referred to this as the “space between thought”, but no matter what it’s called, it can transform your life if you’re open to it. It […]
