THE SCIENCE OF CONSCIOUS EATING

We are all made up of vibrating atoms, molecules and energies. Our individual reality in any given moment is determined by the images we hold in our mind’s eye. When we perceive a threat or have a fright, we can sense our energy field contract. Imagine a deadly snake or gun being pointed at you and feel the subtle shift in your energy. It is very common to see people contract in response to a threat. This natural reflex happens on all levels of our being, from the cellular through to the whole body and energetic field. 

On the other hand, when we vibrate in harmony with the True Nature of Life, we feel light and open, and our energies radiate outwards. If I ask you to imagine walking along the beach in paradise, can you feel your energies open and expand? If you imagine Being in Heaven or Nirvana and flying like a bird, immediately your energy expands into the infinite and eternal.

To become a conscious being, it is essential to understand what creates and perpetuates your individual reality. Many people know and understand the saying, “You are what you think.” There is equal understanding and acceptance of the saying, “You are what you eat.” But very few people understand that the real power comes when you put these two sayings together:

YOUR ARE WHAT YOU THINK
YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT
YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK WHILE YOU EAT

The metaphysical link between who you are and what you will become actually lies in the moment where your Spirit and matter come together. The quality of what you consume - food, drink, air and sunlight - combined with the quality of your thoughts determines and perpetuates your overall experience of reality. The dominant energy at the time of eating will establish either a true sense of Being, or perpetuate a state equal to one of an intelligent animal.

One of the questions I ask people is, “Why do we eat food?” The answers always vary widely, but there is another metaphysical principle that is widely missed. The ultimate top-down reason why we eat food is, so that the energies and properties of plants can experience and express themselves in and through us. Therefore, when we are intuitively guided to eat the appropriate high quality plants, they merge with all the unique qualities of Soul to fuel and manifest them into our reality.  

When we eat consciously, all the good qualities contained in the foods are brought out to align with our Soul. If we eat in a state of separation and division, our negative energies are fuelled and fed by the bad qualities of the foods. We can take on the negative effects of the chemical fertilizer, the emotions of the chef, and any disturbed energies of the food. Therefore, it is either the presence of our Soul or the negative energy of the food that find expression in and through us.

The cells of our body are the manifestation of all the sources of nourishment. An important question is: At what point or points can our cell’s memories give way to a new program or paradigm?

We have established that the cells of our body take on the program of whatever we think while we eat. The cellular memory, when in a negative vibrational state, is the basis of the ego, containing all limiting belief systems and concepts. The cells of the body can also take on a higher vibrational state and serve to manifest a person’s innate gifts, talents and skills. The cells can then gain access to the part of our consciousness that can perceive and experience the Divine. In this state, the Mind is unlimited, infinitely creative and contains all innate wisdom

I often ask the obscure question, “When does the food you eat become you?” Most people reply, “When it goes in my mouth”, whereas in fact, it is when it enters your energy or auric field. Another interesting point of view is, if you only ever ate carrots, at what point would you become a carrot eating a carrot?

The energy of food is no different or in any way separate from our own Spirit. Whatever we do to our food, we do to our Spirit! When we consume food in its natural state, it enables us to manifest our True and Natural State. The further the food is removed from its natural state the more delusional and illusionary our reality becomes. The degree to which we interfere with our food directly impacts our level of consciousness. The scale below will enable you to see exactly how much food influences your state of Being:

• An organic apple picked straight from a tree, and eaten in a conscious and deliberate way, will manifest Oneness, Bliss and Immortality - Love, Light and Life.

• A chemically sprayed apple picked and eaten will begin to disturb your energies in some way.

• A chemically sprayed apple that is put in cold storage for 2 months and then eaten, will dull your energies.

• If that apple was to be cooked in an apple pie and eaten, it will begin to darken and kill off your energies.

• If the apple pie is frozen, then cooked in a microwave, it will totally annihilate your energies.

• If this apple pie is cooked in a microwave then consumed watching a disturbing television show, whilst smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol and arguing with somebody late at night, it will totally obliterate your Soul!

The organic apple fresh off a tree will create a sense of being whole and complete, in the Present. Fresh, raw, organic foods instil Light, Peace, Love and all the qualities of the Spirit for our soul. A candy bar cannot have this affect. Foods that are refined and dead create a feeling of being separate, as well as speed up and intensify any negative state within the person who consumes it. On an emotional level, we will feel isolated and alienated, as well as experience a dark, gloomy and heavy state of mind.

The effect of our food on our personal reality is reflected in the saying by Brillat-Savarin, “Tell me what you eat and I will tell you who you are.” Thankfully, science is slowly catching up with what conscious beings have always known. The link below is a video by Dr Bruce Lipton that relates how science has found the biochemical basis to how foods determine our reality.

Mankind will eventually awaken to the fact that the forces that give life to our food and bodies are the very same energy that powers the sun and the entire Universe. We can take the opportunity to consciously align with and honour the Universal Plan unfolding every time we eat and drink.

THE PACE OF GRACE: How to maintain the flow

Very few people ever get the chance to totally step out of the life they were born into in order to gain a new perspective or approach to life. Most people live out the same lives as their parents and their grandparents. We are conditioned and programmed into accepting that rushing around in an un-integrated frenzy is normal. Most people habitually rush doing everyday things, and are forced to hurry in their jobs.

Most people live under some kind of pressure to perform or produce. It seems humanity has resigned itself to living a life of stress, incapable of drawing upon the wisdom of the ages. It appears blind to the cultures offering alternative perspectives and approaches. They are often condescendingly classified as primitive and deemed irrelevant to the modern world. Nothing could be further from the truth.

When I was living in the remote ashrams of India in 1991, I completely forgot about life in the West and quickly settled into the new daily routine. I had studied martial arts, yoga and tai chi and found the lifestyle perfect for integrating all the techniques and philosophies. I didn’t need to know what day of the week it was, or even the month of the year. Life was so relaxing and peaceful, and as I went deeper into myself, I connected with what I call, The Pace of Grace.

This is the element within the Universe that determines the speed or rate that something develops or unfolds in your reality. It is one of the Universal forces beyond everyone’s control. I have a saying, “It all unfolds in Divine Time and at the Pace of Grace.” You may work hard for something and have to wait many years for it to unfold in your life, then it may finally happen overnight. Conversely, you may have developed something over many years and lose it in an instant.

You have probably heard someone say, “I work well under pressure.” Many people pride themselves on having this ability, but it may only relate to a specific area of life. Their strength can be either inherent or acquired, but both require being graced with the internal and external resources to develop. Equally, we hear many sayings that reflect how a loss of integration effects our performance, like “The faster I go the more behind I get.”

 People having the same experience may feel time passing in completely opposite ways. One person may feel time went exceedingly quickly while another may have felt it was excruciatingly slow. Essentially, we are not empowered unless we can unconditionally embrace the rate at which things come and go in our reality. This principle is central to the information and techniques I share.

It is essential to realise the basis of our stress is that we are trying to function at a level beyond our stage of neurological development and integration. We are forced to compensate and use momentum to maintain our performance - in the same way a hamster runs on a wheel. We tend to develop the habitual reactions, which gain momentum. Someone might say, “That sounds good, but I am a little busy right now, so I will consider it when I finish doing this.” We know that it never ends, so we never get to stop and think of alternative perspectives and approaches.

There are many techniques aimed at reducing the effects of stress in our modern lives. However, most don’t address the core problem - most people are habitually rushing and can’t stop. Therefore, everyone needs to be aware of The Pace of Grace. So exactly how do we do this?

This state can only be achieved through mindfulness of the breath. Our ability to remain consciously aware of the breath determines the level of our mental ability, to inwardly concentrate and outwardly focus our attention. We can only maintain our concentration and attention to the level of strength we have in the relative pathways. If we lack the strength, then we lose co-ordination and our level of performance deteriorates. This is very easy to observe in many physical activities, where the moment you start to fatigue, your ability to concentrate and co-ordinate is immediately effected.

The ability to remain mindful of the breath enables conscious and deliberate action. This means you will be able to maintain the flow in everything you do. Therefore, you will always perform at your best and continue improving your level of performance. Arts like tai chi and yoga focus on mastering the ability to remain internally still while externally being in motion. The intent is to maintain a pure expression of yourself even while living among the haste and chaos of the world.

Your ability to learn ANY activity depends on your ability to find your Pace of Grace. So it goes without saying that your ability to achieve your potential depends on your ability to remain at your Pace of Grace. Regardless of what activities you engage in - yoga, marital arts, athletics, gym, playing music, dancing, surfing, working in a factory, driving a car - your level of performance is directly determined by your awareness of breath.

Mastering The Pace of Grace means you can remain relaxed and alert, which ensures your reflexes and responses are the fastest and most accurate level possible. The best example of this is a martial arts master, who trains to remain aware of all slight sensations in the mind and body. They focus on remaining absolutely still, empty and silent internally, through awareness of the breath. They may explode with lightning speed in response to an external threat, then instantly return to being still, empty and silent.  

You need to be mindful of the changes taking place within the body in order to remain at The Pace of Grace. When you are aware of your level of strength, you are able to ensure you perform to your capacity. You can gauge when you are nearing your peak, as well as adapt to internal and external changes. In this state, you automatically know when to rest or recover, and not let your impulses override your body’s needs. You can avoid over extending yourself and prevent the risk of accidents and injuries.

The instant you go too fast, or lose breath awareness, you become stressed. The yogis that taught me how to breath said, “There is no such thing as stress, just an inappropriate breathing pattern given the situation.” So we must know how to adjust your breathing in order to stay mindful. I cover this in detail in my eBook THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world.

It is also important to note that The Pace of Grace relates not only to individuals, but collectives as well. You may notice the different rates of traffic flow on the roads and footpaths, depending on the time of day, day of the week or season. There are also many instances where a team has to perform at the same speed and intensity in order to succeed. But groups are made up of individuals, so it is important to remember that we can really only work effectively together at the pace of the slowest or weakest person. 

Regardless of who you are and where you live, it is possible to quickly and easily develop an awareness of The Pace of Grace. By learning the correct breathing techniques and adopting a conscious awareness of all the Universal forces at work in your reality, you can remain relaxed and calm under all circumstances - and not just when you are chilling out with friends. This makes it possible for you to reach your potential and fulfil your purpose. You can then consciously share your experience with others and empower them to do the same.

THE CONDITIONS OF UNCONDITIONAL SHARING: The true foundation for all relationships

Despite all the wisdom of the ages, all the great beings who have lived before us, and all the knowledge we have gathered over centuries, we are no closer to living in Peace as a race than we were thousands of years ago. In fact, there seems to be an ongoing decline in humanity as we regress towards self-extinction. Many people are stuck in false realities because there are no clear rules or distinct guidelines that everyone can agree to live by.

We ultimately need to find a way to dissolve all conflict and confusion within and between us. The only way we can do this is to establish concrete guidelines by which we all agree to live and share. Our failure to do this as a race until now may not instil a lot of confidence that this is even possible - but, as always, the answer is very simple. The first and only Law worth sharing is: DO NO HARM. This essentially needs to go without saying. Beyond that, there are six basic ‘conditions’ we all must honour. I call them The Conditions of Unconditional Sharing. They mean that everything we share must be:

  • WHAT - accessible, attainable, and experiential to all involved

  • WHEN - present time or directly related to The Common Purpose or common history

  • WHERE - here now, with past evidence, or within the perceivable future

  • WHY - to establish a Truth that is unanimous to every single Being

  • WHO - relevant to all present and be unanimous to every single Being

  • HOW - according to all the above

These conditions do not in any way limit our reality, they only serve to clarify the terms by which we live and share with others. We are free to talk about anything and do everything together, providing there is a common understanding of the purpose and intent behind the conversation or activity. We can still freely share our theories and philosophies, interpretations and observations, thoughts and feelings, but with a mutual acceptance of exactly what is being shared.

The sharing of personal experiences and understandings may be relevant, but it is not appropriate or relevant to discuss other people’s experiences or understandings. The instant outside information is brought into a sharing, it dishonours all those present and does everyone a dis-service. The information you give and receive MUST be replicable, accessible, attainable, transferrable and experiential for every person on Earth. To remain true - and present - all sharing must directly empower everyone present, to maintain their growth and serve humanity. Ultimately, you must:

-        Speak only from your own direct experience
-        Share only what you are able to remain consciously aware of
-        Live according to all Divine and Natural Laws
-        Practice and create only what is unanimous to all present
-        Cultivate what is self-evident and indisputable to all Beings
-        Never lie or exaggerate
-        Never be idle and waste time
-        Never speak of another person
-        Never speak without being asked to

There is no honour outside The Conditions of Unconditional Sharing. If you do NOT have DIRECT experience dealing with the issues and people involved – you are simply NOT entitled to an opinion, and do NOT have the right to make a comment! Life is essentially a need to know basis. If you don’t need to know, it is simply not a factor in your reality. Therefore, there is absolutely no need for you to have an opinion about another person’s life. Doing so only reflects a fundamental weakness within your own reality.

The Conditions of Unconditional Sharing are in no way enforced by external factors, but automatically arise out of an awakening to the true nature of our reality. Therefore, an individual’s attitude and behaviour directly reflects their level of awakening. When you have awakened, you are free of all doubt, judgment and question, and all guilt, shame and blame. You are saturated with gratitude and full of compassion towards all beings.

However, most people are not capable of waking up. They are victims of propaganda and lies, which keep them stuck in the delusions and illusions of their existing paradigm. Those who have not awakened tend to live and act contrary to these conditions, engaging in all kinds of matters that don’t directly involve them.

To live and share our true potential, we must all learn to literally mind our own business. This way of living in the world does not come from a state of mind or belief. It stems from a deep and conscious state of being, where there is the ability to maintain a conscious response according to the true nature of life. Many people believe they understand this principle and feel they live with integrity, but very few actually have a true conscious awareness of this state.

Violating these conditions impacts our relationships more than any other area of our lives. Most relationships are in fact built on the ego, which appears in the absence of our ability to be a conscious being. This is primarily the result of the conditioning and programming we get from our religion and culture. Modern society prospers by fabricating the opposite to these conditions.

Most forms of media are full of issues and affairs that are in no way relevant to the viewer’s reality. Social media feeds people’s thirst for distraction, appetite for gossip and addiction to drama. The broadcaster’s bias creates and perpetuates prejudice through presenting an endless array of comparatives. This instils and propagates the ‘us versus them’ mentality, which reduces our experience to a competition in the fight to survive.

We are constantly persuaded to jump to conclusions, and judge people we have never met or likely to meet. Those with inflated egos are overcome by self-importance and self-righteousness. They mindlessly construct stories in their heads, building cases to use against those who fail to conform to their views. Malicious and malevolent behaviour like slander, demonising and character assassination is the most destructive element in a society, causing a great deal of the needless suffering. A common example of this is the ever-increasing amount of bullying and narcissistic behaviour.

If you want to determine how conscious you really are, imagine if you reviewed a print out of all your thoughts at the end of each day. If you are truly honest with yourself, you would soon realise the true nature and intent of your thoughts, which either drive or inspire your every word and deed.

When you honour The Conditions of Unconditional Sharing, you can potentially be the conscious being you were made to be. But be warned, taking that path in life will most likely attract the greatest amount of criticism and resistance. Therefore, you must walk tall with your sword drawn, so you can continue to grow and develop the required strength - and then genuinely share the journey towards our ultimate experience.

RECIPROCITY: The true power of giving and sharing

This blog covers a very interesting and powerful topic - our innate ability to give and share. I will show you the potential for change within any community that consciously and actively practices reciprocity. You will see just how quickly true change and growth can occur. Keep in mind that the closer to the Truth something is, the more instant it becomes.

I define the four levels of  exchange as: GIVE, RECEIVE, SHARE and RECIPROCATE. The following example using 6 people highlights the difference between these four levels. The best way to understand the power of this concept is to look at the mathematics of each exchange.

If we start with one person lacking something, the other 5 give the person what they need to be equal to them. This is what it really means to give and receive. Once they are equal, they can then begin to share what each of them has that is unique.

Each of the six people now has 5 items in common to share, plus 1 unique item. When we do the maths of this level, each person can make a total of 30 combinations between their 6 items (e.g. if we have items that are interchangeable like a:b, b:a, a:c, c:a etc.) - 20 of these they have in common with each of the others. Therefore each individual has the possibility to make ten items the others don’t have. There is a total of 180 combinations between the 6 people.

The next stage is each person reciprocates by sharing their unique item with the other 5. After the first round of reciprocating, they each have access to 5 new items - making a total of 11 each. The number of combinations now possible for each of them to create is 110, with a total of 660 between the 6 of them.

If we now introduce a second unique item that each one of them has, the total number of combinations between them after the second round of reciprocating is a massive 1440.

This shows you just how quickly things can change when only 6 people reciprocate. Consider the outcome when we all participate on an international scale. This is the key to healing ourselves and the world! One spiritual master I spent time with told me emphatically that no true change or growth is possible within humanity unless there is reciprocity. Therefore, until we see this being acted on consciously and deliberately, there will not be any real shift within our shared experience on Earth.

GRIEF, TERROR AND RAGE: Understanding The 3 Core Emotions

When you understand the nature of disease from a wholistic perspective, you can see how emotions are only like shadows on the wall of our minds. They arise according to the different factors that cause us to go out of balance. Ultimately, all dis-ease and emotions are the result of not being able to access and express the qualities of your true inner Self.

All negative emotional states stem from THE 3 CORE EMOTIONS:

1.     TERROR
2.     GRIEF
3.     RAGE

There are degrees to which the core emotions manifest, appearing as the related emotional states listed below.

GRIEF - sadness, despondent, unhappy, gloomy, miserable, dejected, disillusioned

TERROR - fearful, scared, worried, anxious, apprehensive, concerned, phobic, horrified, shocked, panicked, frightened, dread, alarmed, intrepid

RAGE - angry, furious, ferocity, vehement, wrathful, annoyed, irritated

The most common expressions of The 3 Core Emotions are sadness, anger, and fear or being scared. However, no emotion ever occurs by itself. Instead, they compound with the others and build into emotional complexes. Therefore, The 3 Core Emotions come together and manifest as THE 9 CORE EMOTIONAL COMPLEXES.

1.     Sad about being scared
2.     Sad about being angry
3.     Sad about being sad

4.     In fear of being scared
5.     In fear of being angry
6.     In fear of being sad

7.     Angry at being scared
8.     Angry at being angry
9.     Angry at being sad

It is important to note that a core emotion arises with every separation and division away from our natural state of being! Emotions are always directed at the perceived cause of the suffering. Each one may centre on a single issue in a person’s life, or surround multiple issues that affect a person’s entire reality. Here are some examples:

- a person who is angry at being angry about their low wages

- someone who is scared they will become depressed after becoming unemployed

These combinations may continue to compound into complicated emotional complexes. For example:

- A person is furious at their grief over having a broken heart, and scared they may never get over it. The fear and anxiety makes them withdraw socially, which causes an even greater depression.

Going deeper in the material I share, I explain how all dis-eases are caused by either an excess or  lack of something that is essential to attain and maintain balance. However, all dis-ease starts with an initial deficiency, or lack of wholeness and completeness. So to address emotions effectively, we mainly need to focus on what is missing to cause the state. When we know how to remove the excesses and restore the deficiencies, we can make emotions disappear in the same way light dispels darkness. As one master said to me. “You don’t have to open a door to let the darkness out, you just turn on the light.”

Grief is essentially seated in a feeling of loss or lack. When you invert that energy, the opposite to this is a sense of gratitude for what you do have. We simply need to saturate our minds with all the things that we have to be grateful for in life, and the grief will go.

Anger is the same. I have a saying. “Anger is laughter turned inside out”. This is why the people with the biggest tempers are those with the best sense of humour. Laughter is actually our essence of bliss coming through. We just  need to stop taking everything so personally and seriously, and learn to see the funny side of everything. This is why we say that you know when someone is free of an issue when they can laugh about it.

Fear always appears with its counterpart - desire. Fear and desire are limited to a dualistic reality, and are inseparable from each other. For every fear there is a desire for the opposite result, and for every desire there is fear of not satisfying that desire. Fear is based on doubt, judgment and question, which stem from your core beliefs. The beliefs are not centred in a conscious connection to the natural laws , which create and sustain all life and the Universe. The opposite to fear is the sense of honour, which comes from being able to align and connect with these laws, and feel the divine grace unfolding in and through everything.

It is empowering to know that regardless of the emotional state, we can quickly and effortlessly shift our reality. We simply need to find creative ways of restoring a connection with nature and our creativity. We can all do this by learning to honour ourselves and each other in a way that is free of compromise, contradiction and denial of the natural laws.

Why ask? The 12 intentions behind asking questions

People’s core intentions stem from who they identify themselves to be, and they communicate according to who they perceive others to be. For example: It is not uncommon to see military people conducting themselves in a military way in their personal relationships and social situations. How people ask questions may reflect the intentions or purpose by which they live their entire life - they either hold mainstream beliefs or are alternative thinkers.

If you question someone’s intentions, they often react defensively because their identity and character is being scrutinised. Some may argue their real intent if challenged, but it is usually made pretty obvious by a person’s tone, mannerisms and choice of words. We can easily read between the lines and determine if a person is genuinely open, has your wellbeing in mind, or, is trying to undermine you in anyway.

Most people know the feeling when someone asks a question and they have obviously already jumped to a conclusion. No matter what you say, you aren’t going to change their mind. It can be impossible to prove your innocence or have your point of view be heard.

In my line of work, where practically everything I think, do or say goes against the grain, I have a lot of people ask me questions. Over the years I started noting what I thought people’s intentions were, and how they were expressed through their questioning. I have defined what are essentially the 12 reasons why someone would ask a question. The intent may be one or more of the following:

These intentions are equally relevant to everything we think, do and say - I just find it fun relating them to questions.

It is important to realise that those with a ‘negative’ intent are never aware of their true intentions! They are not aware of the difference between a reaction and a conscious response. Their questions only arise from their existing level of understanding and awareness. Therefore, they only care about voicing their opinions and how they feel. They often project their state onto you and remain blind to all other perspectives and approaches.

The intentions behind asking questions has been the topic of many hilarious conversations, so I thought it would be good to share it at the start of the week - for you to have fun applying it in your interactions. I haven’t finished developing this part of the material yet, but I thought you might have some fun with it in the meantime.

...so what do you think? :)

THE BECKONING: Your destiny is calling

BECKONING.png

To fully appreciate the power of intuition, we have to take a closer look at the real dynamics at work within them. Before you can consciously stay aligned and connected with your intuition, you need to be able to answer one essential question.

 Do you feel or believe that it is inevitable that your Soul will merge back with the Source?

 Or to put it another way, will The Spirit giving you life eventually return to where it came from?

 Your potential to draw upon the guidance of intuition depends on how you answer this direct question. This material is here to remind you of what you innately know on the deepest level of your being, that returning to your natural state is inevitable! Fulfilling your potential is inevitable! And fulfilling your purpose is inevitable!

 This blog is affirming to you right now, EVERYTHING IS INEVITABLE! - even if you don’t believe it, whether you accept it or not, regardless if you feel it or not, irrespective of what you think is possible, despite everything you think could stop you, no matter what interference or influences you face along the way - EVERYTHING IS INEVITABLE!

 Your Soul’s evolution and journey through Life will eventually lead to your ultimate fulfilment! This will come having achieved your true potential and having fulfilled your unique purpose. If you don’t yet feel the inevitability, don’t worry. That feeling will definitely come once you have learned and practiced the techniques I share. In the meantime, I encourage you to follow your Heart as best you can, and focus only on the thoughts and feelings that promote a sense of gratitude for the gift of Life within you.

 When you do feel it is inevitable, you can be guided every single step along the way towards the inevitable outcome. Your future and higher Self have everything under control and are beaming back all the love and guidance you could ever wish for. They are like loving and supportive parents at the finish line of a foot race, enthusiastically cheering on their child. This is why I call it THE BECKONING. They are beckoning you on, encouraging you to devote yourself to doing everything you need to do to fulfil your inevitable potential and purpose.

 You need to be able to look upon yourself with absolute compassion and honour, and answer the calling. As the journey unfolds towards your destiny, you will be able to direct your energies back to your past self, with the same sweetness you have towards a child.

 Intuitions are the source of motivation that drives sports people on to success. People often say in their victory speech that they have been visualising that moment for years, and it has now come true. The experience they had was always going to be a part of their destiny. Their level of commitment to achieving success stemmed from this inner knowing. The intensity of the feelings that came with their victory made the event inevitable.

 Many people have asked me, “How do I know what I should commit myself to?” Simply ask yourself “Do I feel it is inevitable?” If not, then chances are it is a compensatory interest or not the highest possible path available at present. I have a saying, “If in doubt, stay out!” Therefore, if you are confused about something or have to think about it too much, then it is probably not part of your destiny.

 There is another important factor that needs to be brought to your attention. If you truly surrender, and transcend the belief in freewill, and realise and accept that everything is inevitable - then everything between now and then MUST BE EFFORTLESS. If everything we are doing is returning to our natural state, and everything coming to you through intuition is according to the Divine, then it should all be effortless and automatic.

 A master once emphatically told me, “Your effort is to maintain the effortlessness!” The true meaning of effortless does not mean a lesser degree of effort, it means no effort at all! It reflects a constant connection to your inner guidance, prompting you to live the highest truth in each and every moment. You don’t even need to stop and think about anything. Everything you need will come to you while you remain in what I call, a state of Grace. You are full of Peace and joy as you are drawn into your destiny. You trust the universe will fulfil all your needs, as you follow your heart, immersed in everything you truly love.

 You have the opportunity to embrace the natural path of least resistance. Every breath and heartbeat you are given is an affirmation that you are here to fulfil a purpose. This is made easier knowing that you will ALWAYS be directly guided and protected by your future Self. It is guaranteed and inevitable that you will reach your potential and fulfil your destiny. Therefore, in the simultaneousness of time, your future Self is living that now, and is sending you the intuitions on exactly how to get there. You may as well learn to stay online and make your journey effortless.

 The material I share is designed to direct your attention to the part of you that is connected to the Truth within. This is the Truth that is not just true for you, but for every one of us! The magnitude of the potential opportunity life offers each and every one of us is beyond your imagination. So make a promise to yourself, on the deepest level of your Being, to honour this process and make it part of your life. In the same way you send all the information back to yourself each night on going to sleep, know that your future and higher Self are sending you everything you need to succeed at every point along the way.

 When you send intuitions back to yourself, you can honour the fact that every thought you ever had has brought you a step closer to this point of realising the Truth. Every memory of stress or trauma you have can be transmuted into a pivotal point of trusting your inner knowing, which you are NOW affirming to yourself. Your life will continue to flow effortlessly, and your guidance will get stronger and clearer, as your move ever closer to the inevitable.

 Intuitions are a natural function of The Higher Mind. They utilise that part of our Mind so it fulfils its intended role in our daily life. The intuitive process ‘evolved’ naturally to create cognitive ease, so we can be intuitive in everyday situations. They effectively minimise our need to ‘think’, in line with the natural path of least resistance. Why ‘think’ harder than you have to?

 Once you are aware of the nature and dynamics of the intuitive process, it becomes a way of instantly determining whether or not you are on your true path. This reinforces the fact that any trace of cognitive strain means you are not in the Flow. It also makes choosing your company very simple: Others either share the journey and support you on your path, or they don’t. The world will tempt you into doubting this way of being, as obstacles and resistance will occur, but you will always be able to navigate your way around such things gracefully.

 The dualistic experience that mirrors gratitude is the state of thankfulness on The Lower Mind Level. The partiality of the ego finds reason to be full of thanks for all the bad things that it does not have to contend with in life. A typical expression is, “Thank God I don’t have that in my Life”. This is a double negative state - which does not make a positive - and it does not imply that you have any gratitude for everything you do have.

 Maintaining the flow in your intuitions through the sense of Gratitude is only half of the picture. The other half is being able to see the same inevitable Truth unfolding in everyone person's life as well. This is the basis of your Inspirations.

THE TRUE MEANING OF WEALTH: When money doesn't matter

To most people, the word wealth involves money. I am not going to spend much time talking about money in this blog as it actually isn’t relevant to true wealth. If you don’t already know the true nature and origins of how and why money was created, it’s a good idea to watch some documentaries on the topic. “I Want The Earth Plus 5%” by Larry Hannigan is a good brief one, and “The Money Masters: The rise of the bankers” by Bill Still is a long one providing the full story.

To really address all the world’s wealth issues, we really need to bypass money altogether. There are people who have put forward brilliant alternative systems to money. The best material available on the topic that I know of is by Colin Turner, founder of The Free World Charter. I will leave it to Colin to fill you in on all the opportunities that await us, if we are smart enough to abandon the current system.  

So instead of talking about money, I’d like to share a perspective on wealth you may never have thought of. We have all probably been exposed to the New Age buzz around abundance and prosperity. The main source of hype on this topic came from the documentary The Secret. I usually refrain from sharing personal views and experiences, but I think it is appropriate to share this one story.

The masters I spent time with in India and elsewhere were absolutely ‘furious’ at the damage that documentary did to the psyche of mankind. When I asked them about it, they bluntly told me that it only contained 3% Truth. One New Ager dismissed this and said, “Oh, well, at least it had some truth in it so it must have done some good.” Well, no. It doesn’t work that way. When something is 97% false, it is obviously going to be the dominant force within its effect, so the result will always have a negative impact.

The truth around money and wealth has been revealed in countless quotes of brilliant people.  Gandhi’s quote perhaps captures it the best, “There is enough for every man’s need; not every man’s greed”. I have a saying I share in jest, ”I don’t think the Buddha taught wealth creation seminars on his way to enlightenment.” It is obvious the pursuit of money and material security no longer serves humanity. So before we continue towards a mutual point of understanding, we need to put aside all current beliefs around money and abundance.

I would like to start by sharing my definitions of the words - ABUNDANCE, PROSPERITY and SURPLUS - and perhaps look at them from a more spiritually empowered perspective:

ABUNDANCE - having everything required to maintain the standard of living and state of being necessary to meet all your needs

PROSPERITY - having everything you need to maintain growth on all levels of your being in order to find and fulfil your potential

SURPLUS - having everything you need to maintain your potential in order to find and fulfil your unique purpose, which is to share everything you have with everyone around you - so they can be abundant and prosperous, and fulfil their purpose.

These three words indicate a spiritual evolution within individuals, and their community. I have had rich and renowned people be awestruck by these definitions. They are finally able understand why all their material and financial affluence has left them feeling unfulfilled.

By living according to all natural laws, an individual is able to produce more than they need. Surplus represents an overflowing of natural wealth, where it pours over from the individual into their community.

A community can also function at each of these levels. When a community experiences surplus, it means they are able to serve other communities. Therefore, true wealth can only really be experienced once everyone has a surplus. I love the quote by Cardinal Roger Mahony, "Any society, any nation, is judged on the basis of how it treats its weakest members - the last, the least, the littlest." If  the conscious sharing and reciprocity does not become our sole focus, then we are doomed to continue the rapid decline of our species.

To make it clear, surplus is the result of the efficient use of resources. This then enables us to become even more efficient to the point where we continue to produce more from less. Buckminster Fuller used the word ‘ephemeralisation’ to describe this reality. Peter Joseph from The Zeitgeist Movement, and the late Jacque Fresco from The Venus Project, have done a lot to bring this concept to the public’s attention.

Again, the truth is always pure and simple. We all just need to accept this to be the case, and return to the basics human values. If we have the courage to take on the challenge, we can turn the visions the greatest minds have held for humanity into a reality.

WHY DO PEOPLE HATE PEOPLE? The answer is simpler than you might think

After countless deep and meaningful conversations, with people from all walks of life, all around the world, I was left wondering, “Why do people hate people so much?

Despite all the years of study and research, I couldn’t answer this question in a way that fully satisfied my Heart. The nutty professor inside of me likes to have an answer for everything. He wants to understand life from every possible angle - and until recently, the underlying cause of this problem remained a mystery.

I realise addressing the deepest and darkest side of our humanity is a full on topic, but I don’t actually see anyone else presenting a plausible answer to this situation. So I feel it is time to take a brutally honest look at humanity’s dark side, and determine exactly what is going on and how to fix it. Sound ambitious? Maybe…. But what is more important in times like these? It is a big topic, so it looks like it might be a long post.

The thing about humanity is: We are all the same. This can be a good thing and a bad thing, but at least it makes finding the answers to our problems very simple. As a practitioner, I have treated people with practically every dis-ease and problem known to man. During consultations, it didn’t take long for people to realise I genuinely cared, and almost immediately would open up, and literally tell me everything. There is almost nothing I haven’t seen or heard in the last 30+ years.

Everywhere I went around the world, I shared with people who were getting by in life. However, I didn’t have to scratch very deep to find out that most were living some degree of an existential crisis. The only difference was that some people could hide it better than others. The vast majority of people were openly full of pain, confusion and exhaustion.

Beneath all the masks and hats people wear, there is a person who just wants to get the hell out of their situation. Their motives may differ, but they nearly all lack Peace and doubt their ability to keep going. Some people struggle to make life better for themselves; others for their family; others for the world. Some can function within the system, while others fail miserably and seek alternatives.

The vast majority of people are seeking alternatives. They simply want out. Most are bored out of their brains, and can’t cope being shackled to a controlled and regulated society. The suppression is unbearable, and they are no longer prepared to prop up an artificial world. It has become an unacceptable burden to have their tax money kill and destroy another culture. The abhorrent destruction of the planet and animal species breaks their hearts. They don’t want to support the slave labour in prisons and sweat shops. Everyone tells me that given the chance, they would go and live a self-sustaining life in a cabin in the woods.

This is why so many people escape to nature every chance they get. Their holidays usually involve getting away from it all. And the more isolated and remote the better. Those that are fortunate enough to make the escape permanent speak with a deep conviction. They don’t want to be reminded of the outside world, and are happy to forget it exists.

However, most people are trapped and can’t escape. They are a slave to the system. At best they may go on a short vacation or a 10 day retreat, but nothing that comes close to providing the required healing. Even though they lost heart years ago, they keep dreaming that one day their luck may change, and they will have the freedom to spread their wings and never look back.

So, how bad are things when most people just want to flee their lives? The environments that are supposed to be supporting them are driving them crazy. Most people just wish they could stop the world and get off. They are sick and tired of the suicide bombers, the police brutality and killings, the crime, the terror, the homelessness, the drugs, fake news, narcissistic celebrities, the beheadings, the false flag operations, the disease and medication rates, etc. - pretty much everything in society.

It is obvious that society is being driven by the insane, war-mongering, Illuminati controlled governments. These psychopaths are backed by the blatant fear tactics of the corporate media. This is reinforced by a subliminal assault inflicted by the satanic cults running the music and entertainment industry. And it is all kept in motion by rigged elections for smug politicians, who lie directly to our face. They are protected by the paedophiles among the elite and religious - the very people who should be making a difference.

We have probably all witnessed or been the victim of someone who was on an egotistical power trip. There are people who are just plain nasty and act like absolute arseholes towards others. They vent on social media, which has become a playground for the haters. But when you put all judgment and opinions aside, you will see that these people are the ones who are suffering the most. They just take their frustrations out on others. Exposure to this behaviour effects the mental health of many people, who eventually cannot contain their frustration and hit boiling point.

People who have reached this point demonstrate a contempt for life, others or themselves. You only need to look at how many people display self-destructive habits and behaviour. They appear as socially accepted ways of suicide: smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, eating junk food etc - all of which are known to kill people. Everyone knows the only reason they are allowed to keep existing is because someone is profiteering off the ways people distract themselves away from their inherent pain.

This is why many people are completely over dealing with other people’s attitude and behaviour. They are tired of being bombarded by the stupidity of the sheeple. They feel like screaming, “For God’s sake people, just wake the fuck up!”. Even if they do blow their lid and scream “ENOUGH!”, it doesn’t change anything. They usually go deeper into suppression, until the next time around the world drives them completely bonkers. Any wonder suicide rates are going up.

When I reached that point in life, I was fortunate enough to have a spiritual master take me aside. He said very emphatically, “I want you to understand just one thing Brian. There are no longer just irrationalities in the world. There are only varying degrees of insanity! So STOP expecting people to change their attitude and behaviour.” This cleared the way for me to focus all my energies on going within, which carries over into everything I share today.

Anyone who dares to break the mould is definitely going to be made an example of. Let’s find a good example - I know, let’s use the story of Jesus. Now this guy, he was supposed to be as good as you can possibly get. He was perfect - right up to end, then he cried out in pain and questioned God his father. But he quickly woke up to himself and totally surrendered, so it was all good. But we probably need to remember why was he nailed to a bloody cross in the first place. Ummm….Oh that’s right, because one of his closest friends betrayed him for money and got him arrested. Plus, his best friend denied ever knowing him - not just once, but three times - AND, his remaining friends abandoned him when all the people he was trying to serve turned on him. They even chose to free a criminal over him, and then protested until he was condemned to a slow grisly death.

I am by no means anti-Christian, it is just that the bible contains some of the best examples of humanity’s dark side. Which is why the story of Jesus was not created to teach us how to have compassion and forgiveness for those who harm us, or how to have unwavering trust in our Creator. If it was, then every Christian would be living a charitable life and be completely at Peace, having followed his example of how to forgive - and surrender even when being tortured to death.

No, his story wasn’t a message - it was a warning!
   Be a good citizen and follow all the rules, but don’t be too good - otherwise, we’ll make
   all your friends turn on you, and we may have to kill you.

This sinister message is a deterrent, which sets a precedence in the hearts and minds of every Christian. What chance have they got to make a difference if this is what happened to a guy pure and powerful enough to perform miracles? The story is suggesting the pits of hell await anyone prepared to stick their neck out or cross the invisible boundaries.

So at the end of the day, no one ever really does anything to change - the consequences are just too great. Besides, despite the wisdom of the ages, no one seems to have a clue on where we are missing the point, or even knows where to begin fixing this rotten mess. Most people are stuck in their roles, trying to validate their existence and keep the current paradigm going. If it isn’t part of their job description, then they will happily leave it for someone else to sort out. The only problem is, we are all in this together - and the only way we will ever get through this is if we all pull our heads in and work together.

However, unless we know exactly how to pull the plug on this cesspool of a society, we will never be able to stop and face the reality of our situation. Until we can look ourselves, and each other, in the eye and say, with absolute conviction and honesty, “I‘ve got you. I am with you on this!”, then we can ditch all the empty platitudes and warm and fuzzy clichés. We have to do whatever it takes to get on the same page so we can start anew. So what’s the answer?

The answer to this whole situation came to me at the end of ‘one of those days’. I had spent the day dealing with the extremes of ignorance, arrogance, stupidity and insanity. A night walk to the beach was needed to give me the inner space to make sense of my day. I thought about it deeply, and realised I needed to go back to the very beginning within my own experience. So I did.

As I walked and talked with my friend, I relived the earliest and most painful memories lurking in the crevasses of my mind. I dug deeper into them than ever before. Then the answer hit me. What was at their core is what makes people hate people.

The answer is:
Because we are killing each other! 
- not directly, but indirectly, by killing each other’s CREATIVITY.

So could all the world’s problems be simply due to the suppression of the creative genius within each of us?

My answer is, YES! - absolutely.

If you look deep enough, you will see that all the deep-seated emotions plaguing us are the direct result of being denied the opportunity for our pure spontaneous creative expression. We are destroying each other’s opportunity to find and stay in the FLOW. We deny Love and withdraw support. We inflict pain, and react with vengeance. This is because we are all suffering the very same thing. We are literally doing each other’s heads in. We hear it in flustered exclamations like, “OMG! This is killing me!” We are left 'hating' whatever or whoever we believe is responsible for the pain and frustration.

When you look at people who have an emotional or mental breakdown, you can see how they regress back to their child self. They go back to the age they were denied the chance to develop and grow through play and creativity. This default state is the point where they stopped developing the pathways that enable them to be who they are meant to be. When we are denied the opportunity to experience or express our creativity, our energies simply turn destructive. This is the real root of much of the violence and destruction in our world.

I facilitate a neurological remediation program - for people with ADD, ADHD, dyslexia, autism etc. The most remarkable thing people and parents repeatedly told me was: “When they are doing something they love, they don’t have a problem.” Their symptoms would literally disappear. The best example of this is in the documentary ‘Horse Boy’, when a nonverbal boy speaks for the first time having climbed onto a horse.

My theory: A lack of creativity is at the root of all our social problems. To return to how we are truly meant to be, we just need to have fun doing what we truly love, and share it with as many people as possible. To make this a reality, we only need to honour a single Natural Law - DO NO HARM. If everyone just minded their own business, and left each other alone to do what they wanted, then we might all just find the Peace and Love we need.

THE 3 KEYS TO TRUE KNOWLEDGE: Apply, Practice and Cultivate

There is a great saying, “To know and not do, is to NOT Know.” It means that we only truly know something from having done it. It is ironic that we live in a world that offers us an infinite number of experiences and endless amounts of information, but there is a core attitude and behaviour in humanity that undermines our potential to make the most of what we have available.

I have spoken with thousands of people all around the world in varying capacities, and almost without exception, people have admitted to me that they are not living an empowered life. If most people were honest and open, they would confess to failing to practice what they know. There are two main admissions I have had heard:

1.     “I know I shouldn’t be doing what I am doing, but I can’t help myself”, or “….I just can’t stop doing it.”
2.     “I know what I should be doing but never get around to doing it”, or “…I just can’t bring myself to do it”

This state often leaves people wondering “What the hell is wrong with me?” There is often a degree of self-recrimination where people judge themselves for their ineptness, and their inability to 'get their shit together'. They look at the apparent success of others and think, “How come other people can do this and I can’t?” They beat themselves up over their shortcomings and failures, often resulting in despair and even self-destructive behaviour. Clearly, none of this is conducive to real change.

So where are we missing the point? How is it that even the most renowned and successful people have admitted to me that they suffer from this attitude and behaviour - even when health and personal development is their field of expertise? How do we deal with the objections and excuses - the “Yes, I know that, but…” scenarios? Until we can root out the basis of this attitude and behaviour, then there is no real foundation for individual or collective change.

To understand where we are missing the point we need to understand that developing knowledge and learning involves developing pathways within the cerebellum of the brain. For this be effective, the required tasks MUST be done in a smooth, controlled and deliberate manner. This means we can only truly come to Know something from the direct experience deliberate action gives us. If this is not done, the brain is forced to adapt, and it develops compensatory pathways. This causes unconscious habits to form instead.

When you observe humanity today, most people are living according to their habits. We are not encouraged to think or live outside the square. When you add stress to habits, we are forced to compensate. These compensations gain momentum and prevent people from being able to stop and think. This state of being makes changing habits practically impossible. This is essentially the reason why people cannot change their core attitudes and behaviours, and often not open to correction.

Most people are in ‘the pursuit of happiness’. Their hot pursuit is like a boy chasing a ball out onto a road. The child is so focused on the ball he doesn’t hear the onlookers scream out stop! For most people, the screams to stop are coming from within, but they are overridden in an effort to survive or get ahead. Being so caught up in the pace of life, they may react to a simple reminder of what they "already know".  

All of this behaviour is the result of the survival reflexes in our brain being jammed on. Therefore, the precursor to being able to apply new or existing knowledge is to be in the right state of mind. In my line of work, I commonly hear phrases like, “I have never stopped to think about that before”, and “WOW, I have never seen it from that perspective before.” Therefore, we must have the resources, guidance and support that we require to make change possible. If the dominant force in our lives is not what we need to nurture and nourish the development of new pathways, then old habits will prevail.

But there is Light amidst the darkness. We need to focus on what I call THE 3 KEYS OF TRUE KNOWLEDGE:

1. APPLICATION - The deliberate application of everything you already know is the key to true change
2. PRACTICE - The practice of everything you are coming to know is the key to growth
3. CULTIVATION - The cultivation of everything you are yet to know is the key to transformation

So what exactly is it that we need to do in order to develop true Knowledge? Most people agree that life by nature is very simple, so anything that complicates it is possibly serving an agenda that perhaps isn’t your own, or of the egoic self. The primary things we need to apply, practice and cultivate are anything and everything that enables us to develop and maintain our health, fitness and wellbeing.

Once you transcend your conditioning and programming, you will connect with your inner creative genius. This will naturally fill you with inspiration to find and fulfil your creative potential. To spell that out clearly, you just need to find the most fun and interesting things to do. You won’t need any discipline or sergeant majors screaming at you to stay motivated. In short, the meaning of life is to have fun, and the purpose of life is to share it with as many people as possible. Anyone who thinks that sounds too simple or broad of an answer is probably lacking true Knowledge.

CHANGE, GROWTH AND TRANSFORMATION: The Three Phases of Evolution

I am currently developing some of the content for my up and coming eBook, which follows on from my first book - THE CONSCIOUS BEING: A Practical Guide to The Nature of Life. I thought I would give you a glimpse of some of the juicy topics that I will be covering in the book.

I will be sharing all the factors that determine our ability to consciously heal and live true to our purpose. One of the foundational topics I cover is THE THREE PHASES OF EVOLUTION - Change, Growth and Transformation. These are the distinct phases each individual goes through as they evolve from The Dualistic State to The Conscious State. They describe the rectifications required to reach the ultimate experience. I define each of these phases below:

1. CHANGE - All change takes place within duality. The different experiences are motivated by either suffering or inspiration.

2. GROWTH - Growth is the outcome of an ongoing change that is fueled by a positive synergy within the required aspects and facets of life - on an individual or collective level. Growth leads to a shift from False Awareness to True Awareness.

3. TRANSFORMATION - Transformation is a new kind of action and expression due to the change in form, appearance, state or character that comes with a conscious shift into our true Divine Nature.

The definition of Change is: to make the form, content, future course, etc. of something different from what it is, or from what it would be if left alone. True Change is a Transition from the Negative or False Positive to the True Positive. This change can be motivated through suffering the consequences of negative influences, or the inspiration from positive influences.

The definition of Growth is: development from a simpler or related form to a more complex form or stage. The conscious application of synergy is the key to Growth, which leads to an Awakening to the Laws, Dynamics and Processes within Life. Applying synergy involves the appropriate forms of stimulation and nourishment relative to each stage of development and phase of healing. The synergy must be applied in the manner required for each individual, which enables a shift towards the natural state of wholeness and completeness, and an increase in their potential.

Growth creates a state of Grace where you experience synchronicity and serendipity unfolding in your life. However, it is essential to realise that true growth will ALWAYS take you beyond the current frames of reference you have for reality! In other words, growth will put you on the leading edge of consciousness expanding into the unknown. There is an overall increase in The Level of Sensitivity (see earlier blog).

This phase can be unsettling when the shift is sudden or there is a lack in the required support or resources. I call it ‘Perfect Suffering’, as it forces people into a state of absolute humility and compassion. The discomfort lasts until they are able to remain anchored in the new Truth that is revealed to them. They can then experience and express a higher level of knowledge and level of dedication.

We can break down the word Transformation to extract its true meaning:

- Trans-form-ation: ‘trans’ = new; ‘form’ = kind; ‘ation’ = action/expression

Therefore it means a new kind of action and expression. It is also the change in form, appearance, state or character that comes with a conscious shift into The Divine Nature - with little or no resemblance with the past configuration or structure. It typically results in a drastic reorientation, leading to a totally new direction, along with an entirely different level of perception. Therefore, all transformations reflect an expansion within conscious awareness. This reflects in a radical change in approach, which leads to a complete upsurge in the level of productivity and efficiency.

Transformation is the outcome of conscious evolution and the Transcendence of individuality, providing access to Purpose. The phase of transformation brings you fully into each moment - to BE HERE NOW. There is no residue of the past bleeding into the present, and the present doesn’t overflow into the future. You remain on the leading edge of conscious, but this time you are expanding into the unknowable. Therefore, nothing you already know and understand is relevant to where you are going.

Many types of Transformation exist in nature and the world around us - political regime changes, chemical reactions, changes of seasons and mathematical equations to name a few. However, the best example is the caterpillar turning into a butterfly. This is often used as a metaphor for personal transformation, indicating that you live your life and work hard to survive, then undergo a process that you have no control over or any understanding of what is on the other side.

Very few people ever experience true change, let alone grown or transformed, therefore you cannot expect those around you to understand what you are going through. You will more than likely experience periods of enormous alienation and isolation. All you can do is remain instrumental in The Conscious State and respond to whatever unfolds in each moment.

SENSITIVITY: Our capacity to Love and share bliss

We all have an innate Knowing within us. Most of us never realise it’s there, because it is usually buried so deep under our conditioning, programming and acquired knowledge. We have lost our sensitivity due to never having had the chance to live in harmony with Nature, in order to activate our inner knowing.

Most people in today’s fast paced society have become so desensitised to ‘stress’ that they accept it as normal. However, many have had the pain in their lives cross the thresh-hold, or have hit breaking point and been forced to stop. Though they often get lost when seeking an alternative in a world that has become deaf and blind to nature.

There is a high level of cognitive dissonance, where nearly everyone claims to be seeking the fulfilment of their dreams, their ideal or ultimate reality, but do the complete opposite in their lives. Many proclaim to be seeking Heaven on Earth, but proceed to watch mindless TV shows or incredibly violent and gory movies. Many listen to music that is literally maddening. We have gone from being a child that cries when Lassie doesn’t come home, to growing up and cheering when someone gets their head blown off!

If we look to the animal kingdom we can see how cats and dogs innately know what grasses to eat when they are sick. They go along smelling the grass until they find the right one then they eat it. Many people watch the incredible animal documentaries and marvel at the amazing abilities creatures have, due to the sensitivity of their perceptions. They are disturbed by man’s involvement in the extinction of species, and protest over threats to their habitats.

However, very few recognise the true sensitivities of our own human nature. Most of us fail to realise how the discrepancies in our lives are impacting on our health, wellbeing, and environment. Our potential is beyond everything we have been taught and told. Imagine if we were all living Heaven on Earth and there were only two sick people. What are we all going to do? Ignore them? Of course not! We would be sensitive to their needs and do everything possible to enable them to share the same state and reality we were enjoying.

In today’s world we have become so desensitised that we easily step over beggars in the streets, walk past the homeless; and even support the annihilation of another country to ensure our own oil supply. Living such a compromised, contradictory and ignorant life will always result in dis-ease. We cannot pretend we don’t feel the pain in others. Millions of people around the world medicate themselves to numb this pain, or take drugs to escape the torment of their souls. They smoke cigarettes to put up a smoke screen, so they don’t see their own lack of fulfilment, and to temporarily satisfy their urge to do something ‘pleasurable’.

Generally speaking, there are 6 Levels of Sensitivity. They are listed below from the lowest to highest with a brief example:

1. INSENSITIVE - a person taking a life or killing creatures
2. HYPERSENSITIVE - a person having an anaphylactic reaction to a food ingredient
3. DESENSITISED - a painter unable to smell the toxic fumes of paint
4. HYPOSENSITIVE - a person used to rushing all day in their job
5. SENSITIVE - a person crying while watching a movie
6. SUPERSENSITIVE - being beyond duality, therefore the influence of the external

Unfortunately, The New Age agenda has caused a great number of people to believe they are special because they are so ‘sensitive’. However, when you realise the nature of our true supersensitive state, it presents a whole new paradigm. The supersensitive state means we are able to sense and feel EVERYTHING - but we are not influenced by anything outside of ourselves. We are free of all the reactivity that comes with the lower levels.

There is a wonderful saying that is central to the martial arts philosophy, “You are only influenced by the world in proportion to your desire to influence the world.” We are not here to change, influence, control or manipulate anything. We are here to simply be and share all that we are, and celebrate all that is. This saying supports our need to mind our own business and take things as they come to us.

The key to increasing our sensitivity is to return to a pure and simple natural life. The more truly sensitive we are, the more we can genuinely Love ourselves and each other. Our energies will expand so that we can have more fun together - and experience the true bliss offered to each and every one of us.

CONVICTION, COMMITMENT OR DEVOTION: What is your level of dedication?

DEDICATION.png

Today’s post is another excerpt from my eBook THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world. It happens to be from page 432, so it may resonate with you. :)

When we maintain a pure and simple lifestyle, we will naturally develop a deep sense of dedication to everything in our lives. There are 3 Levels of Dedication towards our Life Path or any other task.

1. CONVICTION - Conviction is the Knowing that there is only one true path you can take on your Soul’s journey. The point of conviction can come about as the result of suffering or inspiration.

2. COMMITMENT - True commitment is the Knowing that once you start on your Path, there is never any turning back! This Level of Dedication can only be reached through Inspiration.

3. DEVOTION - The true meaning of Devotion is that you are prepared to do whatever it takes to fulfil a task or your Purpose. This Level of Dedication can only be reached through Inspiration.

To develop true dedication, we must first be convinced of what to do. This comes from being able to determine the negative consequences or positive rewards. Once we gain clarity as to which way things will turn out, we can then commit ourselves to doing what is required. If we feel sufficiently strong about our mission, we will fully devote ourselves to the task to the exclusion of all other seemingly less important tasks.

Today, the use of these three words is all too frequent. They are usually in the context of a person’s level of motivation towards their goals or duties. However, very few people appreciate the real power these words possess when used in a spiritual context. We can use these words to symbolise The Level of Dedication a person has towards their growth on their true path in life. The confusion we see around the use of these words warrants a deeper investigation, so we can use them more deliberately.

The word dedication means that a person is able to focus fully on a single task, usually with an element of effort or sacrifice. The degree of effort or sacrifice an individual is prepared to undergo indicates the level of dedication. The willingness to exert effort and make sacrifices is directly in proportion to the importance the person places on the task in relation to maintaining or evolving within their state of being.

When we distinguish the three levels, we find that each level is its own distinct reality. In a spiritual context, conviction, commitment and devotion are Divine Qualities. As with all Divine Qualities, there are no degrees of conviction, commitment and devotion. Either you are convinced, committed or devoted, or you are not! - it is all or nothing!

All willingness to change comes from either suffering or Inspiration. Suffering will only ever convince you what isn’t working, never has worked, and never will work in the world. However, Inspiration enables you to see what is working, has always worked, and will always work. You can achieve the level of conviction through either suffering or inspiration. However, you can only reach the level of commitment and devotion through inspiration, because without an awareness of the Divine Laws, Dynamics and Processes at work, there can be no true insight into the real nature of life.

The Levels of Dedication relate to every aspect of being and facet of your life. They also determine our ability to start or finish something. The Buddha explained: “There are two mistakes one can make along the road to Truth: Not going all the way…. and not starting.”

It is only natural that the more imbalances you have in your life, the harder it will be for you to discriminate the Truth and dedicate yourself to your path. When imbalances are the dominant force in your reality, you will be indecisive and procrastinate.

It takes courage to change and follow your convictions. It takes even greater courage to follow your commitments. However, being committed is not the biggest challenge you may face. One of the hardest things you may experience is that, despite your best efforts, what you committed yourself to doesn’t actually work out. This may be in relation to your job, relationships or health and fitness. Sometimes, you just have to accept that what you wanted or needed just aren’t meant to be.  

The level of courage required to experience true devotion is rarely experienced. Devotion is the natural outcome of growth on all levels of your being. This experience can be extremely painful, because it requires you to undergo a complete transformation. It is the worst kind of existential crisis, because all your reference points of what you thought was true and real will be stripped away. For a period of time, you will feel completely lost and confused. Very few people have developed devotion because they are too compromised in their life, or lack the courage to go through the period of darkness to reach this level of dedication.  

When you live with conviction, commitment or devotion, you may find yourself subjected to all kinds of judgments and criticisms. People in a dualistic state will project their own reality onto you and  misinterpret everything you do and say. The beauty of feeling true dedication is that it gives you the inner clarity and strength to not give a damn about what anyone else thinks, says or does. You know in your heart you are on your true path, and that is all that matters. Within that feeling, there is Peace, and that is the only thing that will guide you towards fulfilling your true potential and purpose.

Unless the people around you reflect the same level of dedication that you live by, you cannot expect to have a true sharing with them. Therefore, as the Buddha said, “Travel with thy equals or thy better. If non available, travel alone.” Your main focus is on having fun and being creative. This keeps you true to the nature of life, so you can be guaranteed that everything will flow in the right direction.

THE TWO PARADIGMS: Experiences within consciousness or of consciousness

2 PARADIGMS.png

Despite common beliefs, it is possible for us to be consciously aware of all the different elements in our lives that make us think and feel the way we do. Essentially, there are two distinct ways in which we experience life. Our core perceptions of reality determine whether we have an experience of consciousness, or an experience within consciousness! The difference between the two realities is black and white.

We can explore the two paradigms objectively without making one better than the other. I am simply defining the two experiences relative to what each individual wants and needs, relative to what they know. The main difference between the two experiences is perspective. To have an experience of consciousness, you must have a top-down perspective. Therefore, an experience within consciousness means you have a bottom-up perspective of reality.

In order for you to have a top-down experience of consciousness, you must be aligned and connected to all the laws, dynamics and processes at work within nature and the universe. The more you are out of harmony with nature, the more you will be limited to the bottom-up experiences within consciousness.

One of the main characteristics of the bottom-up reality is that people are not altogether open to the suggestion that we are all equal. They cannot and will not accept that those having a different perception of reality are worthy of respect, and consider them to be lacking in some form of intelligence. They may have been programmed to believe they possess a superior intellect and higher morals.

A Conscious Being is beyond identifying with anything within duality. Their primary intention is to seek true Peace and Love, based on a core belief that we are all equal and one in spirit. They are innately aware of the true relationship between all things and the unity within the whole of creation. Their main purpose is to deepen their inner connection with their Creator, and share the joy of that experience with as many people as possible.

People having experiences within consciousness rarely stop and think about the nature of life. They perhaps never contemplate the forces that create and sustain their body, or question the origins of their thoughts, or ponder the meaning of life itself. They are happy just going through the motions in a competitive world and living the daily grind. Whereas a conscious being feels incomplete and restless without having a true sense of connection and purpose. They find the grind extremely boring and the mindless pressures to survive an excruciating waste of time and energy. This makes them tend to drop out of society and seek alternative lifestyles.

Those having bottom-up experiences can have an absolutely wonderful time, where everything is good, clean, safe, friendly, secure, exciting etc. But to a person with a top-down perspective, having everything means nothing if it lacks a divine connection. Despite all the comfort and convenience of modern and successful life, if there is no real connection with anything or anyone, then the whole experience will be empty and unfulfilling. This reality is prevalent among the rich and famous, where despite living the high life in the limelight, they are desperately lonely and unfulfilled.

People with a bottom-up reality tend to focus on improving their current situation in the world - career, living environment, bank account etc. They may even actively protest injustices and fight for our rights and freedom. They may want or keep things fair for everyone or not really care either way. Either way, they are often locked into biased beliefs with rigid views, and driven by busy schedules with tight budgets.

This conditioned mentality is the result of a corrupt and structured system, which deliberately produces a stratified society and a prejudiced culture. This is reinforced to the masses by narrow religious texts and crooked media, which feed and perpetuate fundamental views and intolerant opinions. This often leaves these people with no opportunity to know any different, so it pours over into the next generation.

Alternatively, someone having a top-down experience searches tirelessly for something that is out of the ordinary, and seemingly intangible to the mainstream reality. But they are not the least bit perturbed by their alienation. They are open-minded but have no time whatsoever for small talk, gossip or media. They need to find people and places that support them in their relationship nature, so they can honour it in its full diversity. They yearn for true and permanent freedom, because their need to have a true experience of consciousness is the most essential experience within their paradigm.

Knowing how to attain and maintain an experience of consciousness will give the opportunity to truly connect with your authentic self. This will enable you to establish relationships based on a genuine love and a deep appreciation for each other’s uniqueness. You will be able to unconditionally accept and support others, wherever they are at on their journey and in life.

REACTION OR RESPONSE: It is one or the other

When you look at the state the word today, it is obvious that we have lost sight of how to live together in harmony. So we need to be aware of what is missing that causes and perpetuates the separation and division within humanity.

 What forms the very foundation of our everyday lives is essentially information. The gathering of information extends back to our ancient ancestors, and that collective wisdom forms the basis of most cultures. We must have access to all the necessary information before we can guarantee our effectiveness in addressing problems. If the required information has been misconstrued or manipulated before its dissemination, or withheld altogether - the result will inevitably be mass ignorance and confusion! Does this sound familiar?

 The core problem exacerbating the lack of information is that we inadvertently overlook or misinterpret the information we already possess. We fail to see critical points and details to develop a true understanding of a situation. This lack of acuity further diminishes our ability to build on existing information. Perceptual oversight prevents us from finding answers to our challenges, or potentials.

 We need to establish a Universal means of discovering any oversights and shortcomings. We must also be able to determine the impact these discrepancies have on our lives. It becomes essential that we start by examining our approach to life and habits in daily tasks. In every moment of our lives, we need to be able to meet the demands of the world. In so doing, we are either:

  • habitually reacting - according to our conditioning, programming, acquired knowledge, and compensations, relative to who we think we are and what we perceive is happening

  • consciously and deliberately responding - according to who we truly are and appropriate to the true nature of what is happening

Our response in each moment of Life is either appropriate or inappropriate. Most of what we do on a daily basis is habitual reaction. The trouble is that our ways of dealing with problems become habitual as well. Even when we genuinely seek answers to the challenges we face - be it to find a solution to an issue or a way to maintain balance - we often cannot break out of our negative habits long enough to find the positive alternatives. For example: not being able to slow down and chew our food properly.

 You need to be aware of how and where you may be missing the point. Whenever we all inadvertently miss the same points, we collectively feed the very problems we are trying to stop. So before we can remedy any situation, we need to make sure that we all have the same approach and fully removed the danger of someone missing something.

 Having the same approach will also remove any chance of conflict and confusion within or between us. If we don’t have the same approach or understanding, we will continually have to backtrack to pick up the last person. This means we can only move forward relative to the last person’s awareness. However, when the majority is unaware, we end up living as the world is today - destructively.

 People only seem to seek a higher understanding when they become lost and confused while trying to deal with the issues they are facing. The problem is that their intentions are only focused on getting rid of their problems, so they can keep doing what they are doing. They seek out people who can give them the information required to fix the problem, instead of finding the sources of inspiration to instil the overall answer. Therefore, whatever information they acquire or whatever they do will not be effective in healing or creating Peace. This is because Peace is only possible by consciously returning to and remaining in our Natural state.

 Most of the information communicated today is in an effort to help others or ourselves progress in the world - or to secure or assert our place in the world. It is mostly shared with good intentions, however, I have a saying,

 “We are NOT here to ‘help’ each other find solutions to our problems;
we are here to serve each other in living the innate Truth.”

My eBook THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world. focuses on establishing a simple perspective and approach that is Universal, regardless of race, culture and religion. If you would like to know more, click on the link below and purchase your copy now.

THE LAW OF SYNERGY: The most important factor in nature

Nature uses very subtle, but immensely powerful Laws in its expression. The explosion that comes from splitting an atom in a nuclear blast is an awesome display of the latent power contained within it. Everything in Nature has cycles, rhythms and patterns, which keeps the whole flow of Life in balance. However, the use of synergy in Nature enables things to grow.

 Synergy occurs when the sum total of all parts is greater than the individual parts, or the output is greater than the input. This is observable in every aspect of life - e.g. Doubling the thickness of a rope may increase its strength by four times; two elephants can pull three times more weight than one; all the colours of a rainbow combine to make white Light; mixing primary colours to make new colours.

 The examples above are what I call a ‘Positive Synergy’, which creates forces that are beneficial to life. There is also ‘Negative Synergy’, which is where multiple energies are reversed, creating destructive forces, which can manifest in your life internally, externally or both. For example:

  • A person eating food that has been: genetically modified; imported from the opposite hemisphere (where the Earth’s magnetic field is reversed); irradiated; processed; refined; fortified; reconstituted; cooked; wrapped in plastic; frozen and then reheated in a microwave oven. They may eat this, followed by chocolate ice-cream; while watching violence on television; be smoking drugs and drinking alcohol, as well as arguing in bad company - late at night! - This is the extreme opposite to how indigenous people eat and share food.

 It appears that the dominant force in the world today is Negative Synergy. The more this occurs in life, the more people are unable to see the True Nature of anything! The further we go away from Nature, the more the world becomes toxic - and we become increasingly blind to it, literally!

 Everything in spirituality, science, mathematics, nature, music and the Arts share the same Laws of Creation. Every Law can be represented by: a spiritual passage, a scientific formula, a mathematical equation, a symbol in Nature, a musical note, and a posture or stance and movement in the Arts. Therefore, every sentence in this book ultimately has an equivalent mathematical equation, musical tune, scientific equation etc. However, mathematics is the true language of the Universe.

 Many people reading this may roll their eyes at the idea of maths playing such a big role in the Universe. But if they can overcome the aversion acquired in their ‘education’, they will see the truly magnificent nature and beauty of mathematics. We can all gain so much empowerment by understanding mathematics – especially the nature of synergy. Therefore, it is essential to realise,

 THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF THE NATURAL LAW OF SYNERGY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR WITHIN THE NATURE OF LIFE!

 This cannot be overstated! This is an incredibly powerful thing to know. Once you understand the practical application of the Natural Law of Synergy, you will be able to be effective at maintaining growth and development in every aspect of your life. However, the key point is knowing exactly how to create true change.

INTUITIONS: Exactly what are they and how do they work?

 This is one of my favourite topics to share, because knowing how to consciously maintain a connection to our intuition is essentially the starting point for all healing and personal development. Intuitions are mostly overlooked as a phenomenon, but they are actually part of a natural process within our lives. I will share with you an excerpt from my eBook THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world, which reveals the first stage to this process.

 What are intuitions?

 Most people experience intuitions as a fleeting feeling that something is about to happen. It is widely accepted in many societies, often referred to as ‘the sixth sense’, ‘women’s intuition’ or ‘a mother’s intuition’. Intuitions vary from warnings of a particular danger, to clues that guide someone towards success. In the moment of the intuition, a person may feel a heightened sense of alertness or some degree of apprehension.

 Intuitions appear to pop up at random in our lives, and are all too often ignored due to being too busy or rushed. People often say in frustration and regret, “I wish I’d listened to myself!”, or “I knew I should have followed my gut feeling!” Many people are quick to describe themselves as being ‘intuitive’. They are often keen to relate experiences, or pride themselves on their past success. However, when asked if they know exactly what intuitions are, they admit to having no idea. Before I can explain the answer, I must first reveal how they work.

 How do intuitions work?

 It would be almost impossible to find someone who has never had some form of precognition - like an intuition, a feeling of guidance, or a premonition. Therefore, if nearly everyone is having intuitions, why is it that not one single person, anywhere, has been able to tell me EXACTLY how and why they work?

 The next important question is: If we can have these experiences momentarily, is it possible to consciously connect with them permanently? If so, then we must be able to make it a permanent state. We just need to be aware of the exact factors and state required to create the experience. The mechanisms that enable us to consciously align and connect with that state seem to have been suppressed, withheld, or simply not known or clearly understood. Until now!

 Despite many people’s beliefs, it is possible to maintain a conscious connection to your intuitions. They can easily become a conscious and deliberate experience, and permanent part of your reality. They are in fact a natural function of our mind, so there is no need for any mystery or confusion. We can now break down and explore the dynamics of EXACTLY how they happen.

 The best example I can give of how intuitions work is one that I am all too familiar with, and one that many others have experienced. Imagine you are speeding in a car and you have an intuition to slow down because there may be a speed camera ahead. So you listen to yourself and slow down. Sure enough, the police are just around the corner. You immediately breathe a huge sigh of relief and think, “Thank God I listened to myself!” Examples like this often occur in our lives, but how do we make them a permanent experience? It is easy once you understand exactly how they work.

 In the example of speeding in a car, in the moment where you see the police, a part of your consciousness sends information back through time to your past self, and alerts you with the knowledge of exactly:

  • What to do - “Slow down!”

  • When - “Right now!”

  • Why - “Because there is a speed trap!”

 This means you have the opportunity to receive intuitions from your future self, as well as send them back to your past self, in every moment of your life. Many people can easily accept this as an explanation, but we must be able to answer one important question before we can deliberately use our intuition.

 What exactly is it that opens the channels of communication, and fuels the transmission of the information between your past, present and future self?

 In the moment you realised you avoided being caught by the speed trap, the deep sense of gratitude opened up the pathways of communication and fuelled the flow of information between your past, present and future self. The intensity of the gratitude determines the strength of your intuitions.

 The Components of Information (What, When, How, Where, Why and Who) contained within the intuition are determined by the exact details of the situation you are observing at the moment you feel the gratitude. In the example above, you sent the image of the speed trap you saw back to your past self. The image contained information revealing what was coming and where it was. Because you were driving along in a state of gratitude, your energies were open to receiving the image. When it came into your mind, you sensed it was very close and felt the urgency, so you responded immediately by slowing down. Then in the moment you drove through the speed trap, the image was confirmed and the sense of gratitude arose, completing the feedback loop.

 Here is another example to highlight what governs The Components of Information within an intuition.

If you forgot you left a stove turned on, you may suddenly get a picture in your mind. You see your hand turning off a nob on the stovetop next to a glowing indicator light. You decide to check the stove and discover you left an element turned on under a pot. You feel a strong sense of gratitude as you quickly turn it off. In the moment of seeing your hand turning off the nob next to the light, your present self sends back the urgent information:

  • Where to go - the stove

  • When - immediately!

  • Why - you left the element on

    The intense feeling of gratitude and the affirmation of the details ensures that the messages you send back are strong and clear. Your past self can receive them without any doubts.

The clarity and intensity of an intuition increases relative to the number of things that are appreciated during and after the event. The degree and frequency of appreciation for the positive outcome, having avoided loss or experienced gain, has a compounding effect - so each time there is a sense of gratitude, the intensity and clarity of the details within the information sent in the original intuition amplifies.

 Your thought streams can potentially be a continual flow of intuitions. You can be sending and receiving them to and from all different points within your timeline. You can get an intuition from just moments ahead or many years ahead. At the same time, you can send an intuition back to anytime in your past. You can also communicate with your Self in other ‘lifetimes’, as well as your future and higher Self within other dimensions and worlds.

 Intuitions can occur at any time, and for any reason. They are a natural means of communication within you, to guide and heal yourself, and others. In a time of crisis, people often have an inner voice or knowing that they will somehow get through the ordeal. This sense is often your future self, sending you back the needed strength and guidance. A great example of this is the legendary story of mountaineer Joe Simpson surviving a climbing accident in the Peruvian Andes. In his book and documentary film, ‘Touching the Void’, he tells of the insistent voice within him that drove him on through the most extreme of circumstances and environments. Each time he relates his story, it compounds the appreciation, strengthening the original intuitive experience.

 People often think it is impossible to keep the mind focused on the intuitive process, but it is very easy once you understand how to do it. Staying connected with your intuition is not much different to having a song stuck in your head all day. It is in fact, the very same part of the mind, except you consciously use it in the way it is meant to be used - being guided by your future of higher Self.

SUFFERING OR INSPIRATION: What feeds your convictions?

This post is an excerpt from my eBook THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world.

I once asked my Enlightened Taoist Tai Chi Grandmaster, “How do you maintain a sense of Peace while living in the world?”

His reply was profoundly simple, “By having decided to do so!”

He then said, “You may feel you understand what I meant by saying that, but I will explain it in a way that you will be consciously aware - in order to transmit the Truth to others.” He went on to explain that people will only come to the point of making the decision ‘to do so’, through either SUFFERING OR INSPIRATION. You will only develop the conviction to remain at Peace having either:

•         suffered enough through the consequences of inappropriate actions
OR
•         been Inspired enough to realise the True Nature of all things

He said, because we are living so far removed from Nature, and there are no living examples of Truth and Inspiration in our lives, it only leaves suffering as our means of conviction. He went on to explain how ALL suffering comes from just 3 things:

1.      COMPROMISING YOUR HEART
2.      CONTRADICTING THE LAWS OF NATURE
3.      DENYING THE LAWS AND PRESENCE OF THE DIVINE

The instant that you compromise, contradict or deny, you and all those around you, will suffer! The moment you make the decision to never compromise, contradict or deny ever again - irrespective of what the world does to you - you will remain at Peace!

Peace is the Freedom that comes from being beyond ALL doubt, judgment and question! You must be free of all doubt within yourself, all judgment of others, and all need to question the Divine. Regardless of what you face in life, you must never give into anyone forcing you to do anything that conflicts with your inner Truth. Until you have reached that point of conviction, you will never maintain the sense of Peace! The ultimate Truth is: You are at Peace, or you are not. If not, then you have compromised, contradicted or denied the Truth.

It is essential to realise that knowing how to avoid all the causes of suffering doesn’t mean you know how to remain empowered with Inspiration. So we need to word this in a way that affirms the natural empowered state. You need to:

1.      HONOUR YOUR SOUL
2.      HONOUR THE LAWS OF NATURE
3.      HONOUR THE LAWS AND PRESENCE OF THE DIVINE

- at all times... without exception, exclusions or excuses!

It seems humanity mostly arrives at the point of conviction through suffering. ALL the compromise, contradiction and denial is due to not being connected to Truth, through conscious access to the sources of Inspiration. To learn how to consciously access Inspiration, read THE NATURE OF LIFE, which is available for purchase at the link below.

THE DOMINANT FORCE: Which way will your life go?

THE DOMINANT FORCE BLOG.png

In my book THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world, I present all The Laws of Health, Fitness, Wellbeing, and Healing. One of the key Laws of Healing is: THE DOMINANT FORCE WILL ALWAYS WIN.

The dominant force in your life will determine everything within your reality. It can be from any internal or external source, visible or invisible, know or unknown. It doesn’t have to be the biggest factor, or have the most mass or momentum - it simply needs to be applied in the right way and at the correct intensity. One of my favourite sayings is: “It only takes a small pin to pop a big balloon”. When we relate this to everyday situations, we can appreciate how a person in an abusive relationship may have everything going for them, but the emotional toll can destroy their whole life.

Because most people are not aware of this Law, the steps they take to heal or improve their health, fitness or wellbeing, are often negated by other discrepancies they haven’t even considered. For example: you may not know that the building next to your home is blasting your bedroom with harmful electromagnetic radiation. You may be oblivious to microwaves that could cause you to develop cancer. This may be despite the fact that you have a totally clean, healthy lifestyle, eat as organic as you can, and stay fit and strong. In the end, the radiation exposure could be the factor that determines your fate.

People struggle to realise that the dominant force can be extremely subtle. The reason why this is so rarely understood is our level of sensitivity has greatly decreased. Some examples are how fibreglass workers are unable to smell the chemicals they use every day, and how smokers are oblivious to the impact they have on others. Alternatively, the dominant force can mean that we are hypersensitive, like a child dying from a trace of peanuts, or a simple frown from someone on Monday morning ruining a person’s whole week.

Most of us live and work in a compromised environment, and have company that is contrary to our needs. For example, we can be exposed hundreds of toxic fragrances every day. Brilliant documentaries like STINK! (click to go to website) are bringing to light the magnitude of the problem, which most of humanity is yet to recognise. At the same time, knowing the Truth and not being able to do much about it often weighs heavily on our health and sense of wellbeing.

As a race, we need to develop a common understanding of the true nature of life. Then we can all be on the same page, and generate sufficient ‘force’ within our collective effort to change and grow together. Without a common truth and purpose, we will continue to disintegrate as a race. But the ever-present Truth is pure and simple, and so always offers us the natural path of least resistance.

The reason I wrote THE NATURE OF LIFE was to help everyone realise ALL the factors that influence their life. It is designed to create awareness around the infinite number of influences that are either beneficial or detrimental to each and every individual. Once we are aware of all the factors that influence our reality, we can make conscious choices regarding everything we expose ourselves to. This not only serves us to live our true potential, but it gives us the ability to empower others with the same knowledge.

SHARING VS TELLING: How do you communicate?

We are living in a world that is rapidly becoming full of information. There is an ever-increasingly number of people whose realities depend on the speed, accuracy and efficiency of communicating information. Access to information often determines our standard of living, the quality of our lives, and even many people’s survival.

In this information age, it seems nearly everyone has something to say about almost everything. Technology and its continual advances are making it easier and faster for us to communicate with anyone, anywhere in the world. However, many of the ways by which we communicate today don’t enable us to clearly communicate our real intentions and purpose.

We also need to remember that our forms of communicating information are nearly all based on the use and interpretation of words. What is even more important to realise is that we are often communicating with people we have never met, and are unlikely to ever meet. Dealing with this exact situation is what inspired this post.

After more than 30 years studying and researching natural health, healing, psychology, spirituality, philosophy, religion etc. I have become a man of very, very few spoken words. My previous post on silence hints at my desire to have everything be made pure and simple enough that it all goes without saying. But recent conversations have highlighted a few main obstacles to having silence become mankind’s default reality.

I recently had a conversation where it became necessary to make a clear distinction between ‘sharing the Truth’ and ‘telling the truth’. We must be very clear on whether we are sharing or telling, and whether those we are engaging with are capable of receiving what we share for what it is.

Sharing is based on the all-encompassing and all-embracing Truth. It is in celebration of all that we are and in honour of all that is. It radiates from the core of our Being as inspiration and compassion. Conversely, telling the truth is based on expressing opinions derived from unsubstantiated beliefs. Beliefs are not based on a direct conscious connection with the Laws, Dynamics and Processes that govern our reality. Instead they are based on interpretations of the theories and philosophies to which we subscribe.

In my eBook THE NATURE OF LIFE: How to remain at Peace while living in the modern world, I share what I call ‘The Conditions of Unconditional Sharing’. They spell out the mutually accepted codes by which we can communicate and share. The state of our world today is in complete contrast to these codes, hence the burgeoning level of conflict and confusion in society.

When we analyse all the information being communicated, we can see that the vast majority of it is of little or no consequence to the quality of our lives. On top of that, all the technology used to communicate information is no more essential to our survival than it was for our ancestors 200 years ago. In saying that, everything has its rightful place in our evolution, but when you look at the way many people communicate with each other these days, it is obvious humanity is regressing at an enormous rate.

This regression stems from our apparent incessant need to tell others our opinions. This is usually based on the dualistic and moralistic beliefs of the culture we are raised in. It seems that most of humanity’s attitude and behaviour are not free of some form of pride and prejudice. This is ironic, because regardless of how you look at it, we are all of the same origins and dependent on the very same factors to survive and thrive. This translates to us all being equal, which is the core Truth that needs to be honoured in order for any kind of sharing to take place.

Openly sharing your Truth in a world full of bias can turn the contents of what you share into a topic of hot debate, whether you like it or not. It is astounding how quick people are to comment on a contentious issue posted on social media. Most people find the need to judge or criticise another’s Truth, or truth, by telling their truth with a degree of righteousness and aggression. The common problem is that they have never met the person and are never likely to do so, so they have no real way of understanding their true intentions and reasoning.

The fact remains that we all communicate our truth relative to our points of view. The challenge we face is to be able to openly discuss any topic with everyone without any fear of reprisal. The only way this can be achieved is if everybody involved is able to consciously communicate their Truth from stillness, emptiness and silence. All the conflict and confusion in the world today will end as soon as everyone learns to honour The Conditions of Unconditional Sharing.

Despite your best efforts, people may take offence to what you share. Many are locked into a false reality where they are rebelling against some element of their life. They have a deep aversion to anyone telling them what to do, or how to think etc. Therefore, they are not open to correction at all. They may also misinterpret any expression of purity as an attempt to make yourself superior, or imply that they are in some way inferior. Hence the need to remain silent unless directly asked to share by someone who is genuinely open.

The answer appears to be minding your own business and living your life to the fullest. In so doing, you may become a living example and be a source of inspiration for others. When you do this, you answer the questions that others didn’t even know they had. The essence of your Being-ness, automatically embodies the purest form of sharing. Within this state, we can all be at Peace.
