  • We orient to the most basic bearings on the path. Your axis of two poles β€” between emptiness and fullness, for your liberation and fulfillment.

  • Our path of conscious evolution dawns with the first insight: Raw Presence. We snap out of our robotic tunnels into a realization of the finity of our lives, of the prison of illusions that conditions us. We yearn for a life in raw reality.

  • Our path of conscious evolution is guided with the second insight: Clear Perception. We begin our quest for beacons of orientation. Books of wisdom, insight media, elders and fellow seekers on the path. Nature and the ecosystem, the patterns of our own being. Not teachers of doctrines β€” but doors and windows that open, inviting us into direct experience of the truth of "what is". Read more...

  • Our path of conscious evolution is tuned with the third insight: Pure Reflection. We open our hearts, immersing ourselves into the textures and flavors of raw and unfiltered reality.

  • Our path of conscious evolution expands with the fourth insight: True Potential. We expand our minds in clarity, scouting the big picture of our presence and its potentials β€” as it is, untainted by our wishful ideas. Prospects stemming from the broad recognition of "what is" β€” highlights and shadows alike β€” that alone is the anchored horizon for our hopes. Read more...

  • The fractured little you, existing in separation, affirming its illusions, is increasingly irrelevant and obsolete. The path forward is the path of integration β€” and it burns. It's consequential. You must transform beyond your constraints. The world does not turn in your terms. The whole is not our servant. We all serve the whole. Read more...

  • There is no sugar-coated path to freedom from your conditions. When you feed the parasites in your awareness β€” when you resist the recognition of "what is" β€” when it's all a prop to enhance your little self... Bitter is the path of truth. This sermon doubles as a repellent for those who hope to siphon juice from the tree of life into their self-shaped bottles. Read more...

  • As we march toward enlightenment. Or do we. Or is our attention scattered all over the playground. Fidgety little weasels. Half-assed cherry-pickers floating with the flow. Is there not one trooper with clear aim who holds the line of reality. We are the cognitive liberation front. Not a merry band of fiddlers. It's a tug of war for your attention. Read more...
