Spirituality for Living

What are the big attachments? Money is one and many find that no amount of money is enough. Is supposedly a good thing, but they make themselves miserable in the pursuit of money. Money isn’t evil but attachment to it is. Same is true of knowledge. Learning is a good thing, but there is a [...]

Lets discuss a popular social idea. Money. Money is thinking. Ideas related to having and entitlement. The intuition behind money is having.
So feel in your gut a sense of having. Perhaps if you need an object of the ‘having’ use your computer as the thing you own. When you feel you have something. What is [...]

Is karma just incidental? No. It is a principle of interconnectivity, not unlike gravity in space. Our spirits have a gravity, and it can attract good things like the light of the sun, or bad things like comets. Our spirit or energy isn’t a constant. It can’t really be. We are organic creatures and sort [...]

Fear, fear, fear. Seems it is all fear.
Of what use is fear? If you identify threat clearly then it is useful, but in my experience in more general things it doesn’t do that. It helps the powers that be keep us compliant. Fear as doctrine. It is maybe why they want to give autistics electro convulsive [...]

Which matters more, money or the ones you love? Which matters more, stability or growth that keeps up with the communities needs?
Money doesn’t do much on its own. It is largely a meaningless number in a bank if you have no hope. You could be incredibly rich and have that money count for nothing if [...]

The punctuated equilibrium is about down, the gene code of the Nephilim wants to come out and play. 2012 fun.
What do you see coming after 2012? Radical social and educational reform. The feathered serpent was the God that gave the Aztecs medicine and engineering. This is why you see him on their pyramids.
Quetzecotl? Yes, [...]

Astral logistics is basically manifestation, but bigger. Logistics is the practice of managing energy and resources, and when it seems that something out there has a mind of its own, well it doesn’t have one unified mind. There are many minds, and they are all interacting. Karma, providence, even chi flow, are all just aspects [...]

Here is an interesting fact. Before this age of nations in the feudal era (feudal = war) there was war, but the total body of deaths is dwarfed by just the Vietnam war and that wasn’t even considered a world war. Where is this noble rule of law that lets people live free? My father [...]

The first skill a parent needs, and it’s instinctive but we shun it as the infant matures, is simple listening. Is the baby crying? Are they hungry, scared, lonely? Why is this wrong for us to use with ourselves or out intimates? If we kept that listening, would there be neglected seniors? Would we be [...]

The idea of ‘that is me’… I have an idea of who I am, and honestly it’s not a very interesting idea. It isn’t very fun, so since I like interesting ideas and fun, I look around. Where am I now really? Do I know everything about what is here? What can I do here?
In [...]

Greed and generosity are not the diametric opposites people think them to be, but why do we separate and oppose these in our minds? It’s sort of how our society is structured. There are those with drive, and when we are angry at them we call them greedy. They tell us that we should be [...]

Fey dwell in the wild. They live in a sense as the spirits of the wild, but they aren’t exactly what humans see them as. They parallel physical nature, but they are not confined to it.
You may have actually noticed this. Ever been in a far removed meadow? One little trafficked by humans? Fey sing, and [...]

Zeitgeist means roughly “mans spirit of the age“, and their concern as a body is with the social ills we now experience. They are in a sense a party to the spiritual community, because they do have views on spirituality and religion, but they are focused more on their areas of concern than criticisms of [...]

Money is the biggest belief of all.  Money is the biggest religion. In the almighty bill or coin we trust.  Even before the Zeitgeist movement was founded, I recall hearing that we had the technology to terraform barren desert land, but no one chose to do it. It would make land less scarce, and make the [...]

Let’s use a model. Say you want my counselling (that being what I do), if you give me money how will it go? There does have to be an agreement system, but if in my example you sought my counselling so you came and gave me food, there would be a direct impact. If you came [...]

For various reasons, we accept that we “must” from society, but we do not “have” to do anything except breathe and eat? Actually, yes we do. You won’t get to eat anything if you don’t work, or break the law. Somebody owns anything and everything you might want. It is your choice, but should you [...]

I want to recruit you to our lending team, One World, Many Paths, on Kiva, a non-profit website that allows you to lend as little as $25 to a specific low-income entrepreneur across the globe. You choose who to lend to – whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a farmer in [...]

What do you feel is futile, friends?

Avoiding change. Yes, and having a sense of futility usually comes from an effort on your part to avoid change, very good.
Pretending Second Life isn’t real. If Second Life isn’t real then real life isn’t real, and if I go somewhere I will see a bunch of flesh “avatars” [...]

We need to feel like we matter. A well respected psychologist by the last name of Maslow said this. He was the first to look for a model of healthy, high functioning mentality.
They think “mattering” is something you have when you have money. Yet we live in a system that can only really function well [...]

In our spiritual darkness class, I like to encourage people to speak freely, but it is not a venue for bashing on anyone or criticizing how they deal with things. I will try to offer only constructive advice and will try to keep it relevant/asked for. Unlike many other spiritual groups, we do not discourage discussion [...]
