Objects Of Consciousness
The events or objects of consciousness are what we call experience and some call qualia. They arise inevitably alongside the awareness process presenting themselves to us in what is an unavoidable pattern of interference some would call the observer effect. The act of taking cognizance of an object acts on the object of awareness itself,…

Touch Grass
How are we affected by electromagnetic fields? Are they really harmful? We are effected by them according to the intelligibility and coherence of their signal pattern. An even balanced electromagnetic pulse from the heart or eye is soothing, but some of our machines can create what amounts to repetitive stress injuries to our energy system.…

Structure Of Consciousness
A friend of mine told me that we communicate to the earth through our throat chakra. Each energy center or chakra operates in a form of parallel processing, and the parallel processing brings me to the question of structure of consciousness. Consciousness is a spectrum starting from what could be called the zero point. The zero…

Gaia Mind
From the dream level of consciousness you get the forces that allowed for organic life to occur on our planet. The planet was dreaming before it was “living” as we define it, and it continues to dream. If it ceased to dream, we would cease to exist. Not automatically of course, but we would not…

Fairness In Sport
We teach that in a game, no matter what the outcome, as long as you do your best then wining or loosing doesn’t matter. But some leaders of the sport teach that winning is all there is. That sends a mixed up message. Yes. It is a huge spiritual dilemma in this day and age.…

Faith In Practice
People should choose their participation in sport in the same way they choose their spiritual path? Neither is right or wrong? Yes. The reason perhaps for the spectacular falls and failings of our modern hero Gods is their lack of spiritual grounding. Sport is left brain? Spirit path right? Sport is the unification of mind…

Performing By Proxy
Don’t you go into an altered state when performing sports? This is well established. Sports can alter the brain in ways that it can’t normally achieve in any other way. Something about the extreme effort makes the brain reconfigure itself to adapt, and makes it see the material world in a much more primal way…

Sexual Sport
What would you say is the oldest sport that we still play today? Running and wrestling. The only one older than these two is sex, but today we don’t let that be sport. Sex is a competition? Instinctively, it is. Instinctively, the sexual act is undertaken as an expression of passions, all passion, channelled into…

Sacred In The Prize
How do we become more comfortable with besting another in competition? Excellent question. You become comfortable at besting another when you see the sacred in the “prize”. The totem represented by the symbol that marks victory was not as important as the change it marked in you. I am still confused about the walk of…

Divine Lights
I won’t be discussing orthodox Kabbalah in detail, just a synopsis mostly. But I will answer more specific questions as best I can. Kabbalah is in a sense a form of theurgy. In it, God is infinite and includes all things, all potentials, and is in the purest sense unknowable. In it, all aspects of…

Process Of Development
At each of the stages in Kabbalah, God is considered to have reflected on that stage of it’s expression. I use the gender neutral term because God is seen as both male and female, and this step of considering what it discovered gives rise to lower intelligences we have come to know as angelic powers.…

Reverse The Course Of Ignorance
The story of humanities exile from Eden is reflected in the Kabbalah. In the primal state, humanity existed in a way that was little differentiated from nature. Supreme harmony if you can envision it, but with the awakening to a discriminating mind, man began a descent into lower states of mind and thus also literal…

Work Of Ascension
You don’t actually travel to other planets while you undertake the work of ascension, but as you fully experience each stage it does feel like the earth you live on has changed it’s basic nature. It hasn’t, but it seems to because you are evolving within and beyond that phase of our planets existence, and…

Right Insight
As you incarnated, you took on the weight not only of your personal decision, but the weight of every spirit that ever made the same decision. A sort of shared karma. This is perhaps the origin of the concept of original sin. So as the Kabbalist seeks to ascend the sephiric states, they have to…
-
Ways Of God
Kabbalah is the “ways of God.” Being able to look at yourself and see the divine. As well as see the divine in others. Whatever you do unto these, the least of my brothers that you do to me also. Is it your spirit that calls you on the path? It is your spirit, because your…

Integrative Function
Today we are talking about what is commonly called the third eye. Though the ajna chakra itself includes the entire frontal lobe and is the seat of consciousness as we know it normally, the fundamental understanding to be had about the third eye is this. Thought is not self awareness. It’s not consciousness. It’s a…

Third Eye Training
You don’t need to be psychic to have an active third eye. In fact, everyone’s third eye is really very active. Perhaps the primary function it fills in most people is the projection of their perceptual filters onto their outside experience. It’s not only the reason you notice things, but it is also the reason…
