Shedding light on the origin of, manifestation of and proliferation of the ego in the human species.
Defining the ego's use, misuse, identification and processes that will allow our species to live in the moment – which means experiencing life as it is, while being a responsible species within the field of life on this planet.
Relating the fundamental and universal truth of knowing the self, as per my own experience and describing the natural similarity with that of Siddhartha, Jesus and Eckhart Tolle.

For the first time I am sharing a pretty complete overview of my understanding of my lifelong health challenge(s) as it relates to what we now know of as autoimmune dis-ease.
I hope that can help you go deep into understanding what you feel fatigued, have unexplained headaches or body aches that my have a causal link in common with some of what I describe so that you can research and connect with whoever can then help you heal, as you most deserve to.
Thanks for listening and for your support.
As with all life forms, we feel. We know we are alive through feeling.
As highly developed self-conscious beings we also think, and can derive feeling from thinking, often directed by ego which has co-opted our feelings to validate it's existence.
Use these words as a guide to contemplate your very being, the 'what' you are that is entangled with who you know you are, so that you can relax into feeling authentic and authentically. For a more consistently fulfilling human experience.

Describing the undescribable, from my experience as well as relating thoughts about Eckhart Tolle and SIddhartha Gautama.
The process is similar because it has to be, for we are all human with the same condition and resistance to feeling at peace within one's self and with life.
I hope this helps with your inner reflections and practices to let go of who and what you are not, in your mind, that you too can know this eternal peace.

From the completeness of the universe to the one-ness of life in form and the disconnect within the human species due to ego self-consciousness.
The deepest dive, clearest detail on how it all connects, evolved to be as it is. Still one, and yet with many individuated experiences and perspectives of being.

The wars that ego wages as it keeps busy, as opposed to the struggle of life that is valid and worthy.
A look at the individual ego and subconscious ego and how it relates to the collective, which wages war for the most part over words, ideas, identities than primary directives of life.
An overview of the system that you are, and that we as a species projects into the systems and structures of society.
The self-conscious mind and associated ego have been leading the way for millennia with much success AND collateral damage.
If we learn what we are there will be a paradigm shift within the individual and the collective projection into society, the systems will take care of themselves when imbued with healthy individuals who express their authenticity of energy in body, with mind.

Human language has a lot of shortcoming, disconnections from the feelings and intentions behind them.
Here is a short talk about it.

As opposed to meditation, I am more supportive of contemplating the moment in a very direct way, snapping to a meditative reality by watching thought and then letting go.
A simple practice, which when engaged in conscious attention can lead to breaking past thought patterns that lead to anxiety, stress and existential angst.

What is freedom?
How do we feel free, and what other levels of freedom affect our lives?
How does our mind, and our feeling being, observe and react to the current health situation in society?
Covid is a very real thing and yet is it as real and pervasive as the mind makes it out to be, the ego specifically?

Reading a short excerpt from his book 'Being Peace', then discussing how he conveyed SIddhartha's teachings.
With comments on my experience and how they are all fundamentally the same, just as consciousness itself is.

Living beyond the math of the mind that tries to explain life in a finite way.
The rational mind is just that, for good reason, to deal with the materials world. But life is not just material, it is energy at it's foundation, which is why not being able to know and explain this may be the most important thing you do in order to really KNOW who you are.

Story time . . . about the experience I had in the fall/winter of 2016/2017 meeting Nantar Nua, and Ecuadorian Medicine Woman who I had an amazing connection and experience with, including my only 2 psychedelic trips in this lifetime.
Oh, and I met Siddhartha along the way ; )

Part 2 on Authority.
Some further thoughts and an overview of authority, as it truly exists in nature and as it has been created within the human mind.
Know thy self is a great start, but it needs to be the whole self including ego and not from ego in order for the feeling of peace to be consistently felt.
There is always authority in life, but how we feel about ourselves and how we are succeeding as a species is reflective of which level we are living through.
I break down levels of authority and how they contribute to the feeling of being a human life, as connected to self and life around.

The other ET may have wanted to 'phone home', and in a way this is what i did learn from Eckhart Tolle - to phone into my home base, the consciousness of my being.
I relate my experiences of reading The Power of Now, doing certain practices and eventually letting go of thought.
Certainly a prime examplar along the way, I hold the words Eckhart uses in high regard with respect to being able to relate this simple universal truth to us.

Connecting what we are capable of thinking and feeling about the world around us, as differentiated from society and the self.
We are not the world, but we are ourselves and we have a responsibility to life around us to be our best, most aware authentic self.
Healthy systems are borne out of Healthy components. And it feels good to be healthy component, irregardless of the bigger picture.

Talking about a man who passed on this day in 2020, leaving with us a legacy of life experiences shared, music and words transmitted and life lessons we can relate to.
I share my thoughts on what he meant to me and to many of us, how deeply his life experiences were reflected in his life and the honesty of it all. I know he tried his best, and succeeded on many levels.
Thanks Neil, for being a lovely exemplar of a human . . . being.

Trusting knowing who we are at a base level, prior to thought being engaged.
How did we lose this awareness as a species, as individuals and how do we know it again, for once . . . and for all.

Getting to know one's self, TRULY know one's self is beyond thinking.
It is a feeling, and any connection to thinking it can and will have the side effect of anxiety for most of us.
Here I explore my story and the universal feeling of being that comes from knowing what we are, and within that who we each are.
Story Time!
One of many somewhat mystical, synchronistic experiences I've had and wish to tell, so you can see how just being yourself pays off.
And a song I wrote about it, to cap it off!
Enjoy

We are light, at a foundational level.
And this life is thus a seriously unserious experience.
The serious part - knowing and being thy self.
The unserious part - how we express it, individually and collectively.

More of what I experienced in 2014, because it was very unique within the stories of awakening, with a very useful and deep insight into the disconnect between thinking and fully being.
More thoughts and feeings about . . . thoughts and feelings.
How we get to be disconnected from our feeling self, how the mind words and is thus in the way when it is not being watched, and used, by the YOU that is beyond it.
Ever since we evolved a very complex system of self-conscious thought, and corresponding ego, humans have identified things as well as themselves with language and words as non-feeling things.
This is very big part of society's challenges with dealing with life, one another and knowing how to feel fully human at a base level.
These insights provided from a base consciousness level, will help to clarify how we think about the life around us and within us, and discern the difference between words and meaning in order to connect more fully and directly with the self, and thus . . .with life.

It is said that music is the first iteration of creation, being the very source vibration of any movement.
Music, in so many forms, means a lot to us - from making it to listening to it.
This is a quick overview of music I am connected to, my inner musical journey and a song I wrote years ago with a friend and associate.
It was actually selected as a top 10 finalist for the Tipperary Peace Song contest that year, but I didn't choose to travel there to perform it and thus withdrew from the competition in the end. All good, as it is simply a song I enjoy sharing now.
Enjoy.

In contemplating human origins, and going beyond 'who' I am, I have come to realize the 'what' we are that explains how we evolved into a complex and ego-based self-consciousness.
Knowing this can set us free, to connect more authentically and responsibly together, each of us living our 'who' to it's fullest potential.

Getting to the heart of the matter, the heart of YOUR matter leads to an inner knowing that simplifies the moment, life processes.
Despite living in a complex universe, complex body and life systems on Earth we can know our place, our part and live this experience from a deep place, a simple place.
The connective tissue of the universe - consciousness, heart, where efficiency of being are one and the same.

After an insightful transcendent experience in 2014, I contemplated perhaps how our self-conscious mind arose and ego within that.
