Life of Avoidable and Unavoidable Suffering (PS001) ▸
- We meet with suffering in our lives. Some of it is unavoidable. Some of it is avoidable. When you try to avoid the unavoidable, reaching for a make-believe world that runs counter to actuality, you generate avoidable suffering. Your physical body is a source of suffering. Your negative emotions generate suffering. Your rational mind suffers with conflicting thoughts. Read more...
Grounded Transcendence • Holding Your Integrity (PS002) ▸
- Hey you spiritual person. You are not this body — so give me all your money. Oh okay then. That's obviously not how any of this works. But transcendental dissociation and loss of footing in this world is all too common. Double-check your roots. Your physical being, your emotions, your reason, and your roles in life — these are vehicles for your consciousness. Guard their integrity. Read more...
Never-Ending Quest for Fulfillment @ Elon, Mark, Donald & Vladimir (PS003) ▸
- How many roads must a man travel down... In quest for hollow fulfillment? Elon seeks to conquer Mars. Mark seeks to rule your minds. Donald seeks the prime deals. Vladimir seeks the broad throne. Big boys with big games on the grand stage. Even if you accomplished it all. A gaping void would yet be screaming in the dead center of your reality. Read more...
Lost in Esoteric Models? Use Your Own Awareness (PS004) ▸
- Making sense of esoteric models and mystic diagrams? Chakras, Sefirot, Neidan — confused on how to approach it all? Fair enough. Don't stress your brain trying to download and force install external maps. Have a look at the living landscapes of your awareness. Read more...
Season of Concentration • Nail the Points that Matter (PS005) ▸
- A time comes when you need to wrap the vapors and get to the point. But what counts as a point? The more it impacts your life — the more consequential that point. The broader its influence on all things — the more essential that point. Then excavate and nail down those core points. Drop the rest — the rest doesn't matter. The rest matters when it's rooted.

Use Your Intellect Wisely • A Path of Rhyme & Reason (PS006) ▸
- Many are the things to be mastered in life. Without engaging your reason, you will not master anything at all. Do not hope to vibe your way to the other side. You are biased. You are off balance. False self-confidence will lead you astray. Coherent intelligence provides checks and balances in your transformation. Read more...
Integrity in Integration • Refine Your Pool of Essence (PS007) ▸
- Plenty we harvest and ponder in our lives. When the inner cauldron reaches its saturation, the season of refinement and reconciliation has arrived. There is no escape. The skies are veiled. The conflicts are many. We must dive into the depths. In the penultimate work of cognitive alchemy, integrity in truth is your sole guide and guardian. Read more...
Alignment of Our Life-Cycle • Crowning the Human Saga (PS008) ▸
- Each station and domain in our lives hides a conscious essence. Our human life-cycle culminates with the alignment and synthesis of these yields. What we extracted, what we reconciled, it will ascend into the unification of our human life. Our mystic octagon of conscious realms is a most simple living reality. Read more...
