About 18 months ago, I realised the reasons why everything I've been endeavouring to do and share for the last 35 years had failed. The Truth is, everything I have shared in my book, events, blog and even clinic has gone over nearly everyone’s head. To be completely honest - it has all been a total waste of time. The 600-page textbook I wrote, THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world explains in exact detail all the factors that influence our ability to attain and maintain awareness of our true nature. But despite this, nearly everyone I've shared with has admitted to me that they are not at Peace.
I obviously don't take this personally, because despite people doing years of personal development, practising yoga, visiting gurus, doing meditation courses, taking pilgrimages to exotic places, visiting sacred landmarks, reading countless books, attending workshops and seminars…. people declare they are still unable to attain or maintain a true sense of Peace. Essentially, what we are doing is NOT working.
I always felt that once people grew beyond the usual mentors and spiritual teachers, they would then naturally gravitate to my material and continue the journey inwards - consciously. This would then create the foundation for all the external changes we seek in the world. But, as with most things in the Kali Yuga, the opposite to what you expect happens.
When you look closely as to why, it's because most people are unable to develop any true awareness around their thoughts and energies. This is because, despite all outward appearances, very few people are truly open to being corrected regarding their core beliefs and behaviour. I had a great laugh the other day when Sadhguru stated how 150 years ago, people like himself were able to be extremely blunt in their expressions. But these days, they have to be all rosy and sweet so people don't get offended. He can no longer cut down a person's ego and deliver the message of Truth via the open wound. He declared how he accepts that nobody really takes to heart what he shares.
I was fortunate enough to spend many years with masters and yogis who would literally tear me to shreds for the slightest deviation away from the Truth. But there are very few people open to sharing this experience in our society today. All the New Age BS has taken over most people's minds and shields them from any true scrutiny. They hide behind morals and values, immediately rejecting anything that doesn't reflect their existing paradigm. Many turn vicious and become haters, which is totally ironic considering the banners they live under and trumpets they sound.
Today, most people believe they have already arrived at the ‘truth’. It is what continues to drive them towards their goals - filling them with anticipation for results, and expectations in their pursuit of desires. They will happily spiel off everything they know and understand, what they have read and done, who their current favourite teacher or healer is etc. etc., but fail to realise that none of that means a single damn thing if they are not at Peace. They don't even realise how full of emotion, pride, and judgment they are. Their levels of stress have been normalised by everything feeding into their reality, so they blindly settle for a compromised life.
The state of our world calls for a radical change in EVERYTHING we've done until now.
But if something isn't working, what do we do?
And how do we address something on a worldwide scale?
The answer is always simple - go back to basics.
The most basic thing everyone needs to realise is that Peace starts within. Literally, nothing and no one is responsible for your state and condition. I realise this is hard to believe and accept, especially when people are limited to being caught up in a dualistic experience WITHIN consciousness. Alternatively, the true experience OF consciousness is that of our Divine Nature, which is Oneness, Bliss and Immortality. Ultimately, we are either able to consciously live and share our True Nature, or we can't. So far, I have only met 9 people who can. So until there are only 9 people who can't, we all have a lot of work to do.
Most people live behind a mask and pretend to be happy and on top of everything in their lives. They hide their pain and confusion behind a façade of superficial success, which only perpetuates the illusions and delusions - and furthers the insanity. As a practitioner, I get to see beneath the surface, and what I see daily is a very different picture than what is presented.
Those who understand my material will know the neurological basis to all the attitudes and behaviours, and the reasons why no one is at Peace. This is why I'm no longer giving anyone the benefit of the doubt or sharing information that they can't embody.
Those you truly know me will understand why I have never wanted to share material from the Bottom-up. But after 35 years, practically nobody has been able to attain a true Top-down Experience. So, as much as it pains me, I have had to accept the fact that I need to change to the Bottom-up Approach.
For the last 10 years, I have been extremely bored with all the crap going on in the fields of health, fitness and healing. I'm also really tired of all the New Age BS infiltrating the fields of wellbeing, spirituality and psychology. But I have not been able to find anything else to do in life. All efforts to escape have been thwarted by the Universe. Having one foot out the door has been my default mode while living in this society. I tried doing events for free or by donation, and even tried giving my book away for $1. But very few people reciprocated, so it wasn't sustainable. Hence I needed to continue working in the usual business way. But no more. After decades of banging my head against the wall of ignorance and arrogance, I finally arrived at an answer!
This inspiration is again off the back of dealing with the usual varying degrees of insanity, which this week has included: a client surviving getting shot in the head at point blank range, to putting someone back together after having a dismal experience at a 10-day meditation retreat. My answer to all the insanity is again very simple - and the opposite to what everyone else is doing. I am going to give lots of my material away for free.
There doesn’t seem to be any other way of putting the Essence back into Life. Therefore, I am going to start by sharing my version of one of the most powerful healing techniques in the world - Ho'oponopono. I will align this method with the wholistic approach I share in my book. I will explain it from the Top-down and Bottom-up Perspectives, and expand it into 18 distinct steps. Here is my blog on UNIVERSAL HO’OPONOPONO, and the video on my BitChute channel. This method will enable us to make a fresh start in life, and consciously create a whole new paradigm together.
In today’s world, spirituality and the arts of healing have become a ground for competition and rivalry. By its nature, Universal Ho’oponopono will dissolve everything that is not pure. This is why, after everything I have studied and researched over all these years, I feel this approach is one of the few techniques that will work for where humanity is at today. I simply don’t see anything else working to the extent that is needed, in order stop humanity from self-destructing. So, if you don't already know about Ho'oponopono, research it so you will be able to put your whole heart into practising what I will share with you soon. It is going to great fun!
Love and Light
