Our Place in Existence

Gnosis has many sources. It is one of those phenomenon like the preponderance of certain symbols that co-arose cross culturally. Like the presence of dragons in every world mythology. The intuition that “god” is somehow indwelling the human soul has been expressed in many ways across all world cultures. The “gods” can be real even…

Our Connection to Place

If we saw our own connection to our place, even as we move from place to place in a solidly experiential way, that might change things. Realizing that everything is you and you are everything. Part of sense of place is that realization. You can’t say self knowledge is complete without it, and the relationship…

Spirit of Place

There is spirit everywhere. Spirit is being. If it exists, there is spirit behind it. If it has action, there is spirit behind that behaviour. Each eco-system has its own spirit. Individual sections of an eco-system can have recognizable spirits separate from the larger. I don’t believe in good and bad spirit. Just harmonious state…

Woman’s Place

Tantra is seen as dark, especially among the Ophites. A Tantric practicing Gnostic Christian sect for who the serpent was both eros and wisdom. Thus sex became separate from religion in Christianity. Most of the sexual beliefs in Christianity came well after the time of Christ. He did not teach them himself, and he even…

Give Place to Truth

Trust isn’t foolishness. Trust isn’t being a martyr or a sucker. Those come about when you don’t trust. When you perceive and then rationalize; “Well, maybe I’m wrong“, “Well, maybe they have changed“. Oh, the list of rationalizations is endless. If you trust you give place to the truth. You allow it to show itself…

Karmic Place

Veneration of cows is not what people actually think it is. In India, they are resistant to consuming cattle for the same reason Christians are resistant to scrapping their crosses to be used for other purposes. The cow is seen as a living embodiment of one of their almost universal principles, ahimsa, or harmlessness. To…

Give Place To Dark

We created our Spiritual Darkness discussion group in Second Life to give place to the darker feelings and phases of the spiritual life. Their expression and perhaps some insight. Everyone on any spiritual/philosophical path has dark moments. In Christian mysticism they refer to them as a “dark night of the soul.” They are actually considered…

Right Time And Place

To bring numerology to the personal level, the networking side of it… It may seem like your input to the great math problem doesn’t matter. This would be a mistaken notion. It matters very much, because your literal reality is part of the math that’s being done. You are the value that the universe is…

Place On The Web

Dead spots in the living world and the life cycle. Everything in the world creates an energy, casts a light out into the world. These life lights intermingle to create life events. Now everything in the natural world exists as predator, prey, parasite or symbiot, and really the list is this short. But we don’t…

Place of All Fear

Now a brief aside on nocturnal creatures then we will discuss individual beings. Nocturnal creatures represent a minority of presences in our world. The reason the night dwelling creatures are associated with fear is because they are associated with death and what do we fear more than death? The Mesoamerican name for the realm of the…

Your Place on the Medicine Wheel

How do you find your place on the shamans medicine wheel? Observation of behaviour and affinities with elements and animals? Yes. I will go there if you are ready friends. Ultimately, you find your place on the medicine wheel because you will yearn for home. You will naturally gravitate to your spiritual origin place. It’s…

Right Place, Right Time

We are talking about Ganesha today, as well as some other things. Male or female Ganesha? Well, Hindu devas tend to be sort of fractal, so in a sense both but most typically seen as male. The name stems from the native language that doesn’t much follow English language forms. In fact, it’s actually a…
