Spiritual Materialism
Tags: attachment, Ego, possessions, Spiritual path, Surrender
Ah, Spiritual Materialism.... having the better path, the clearer connection to Spirit, the better guides... the more vivid visions, the prettier or most powerful tools the most advanced techniques, the more renowned teachers or Master Teachers... the most workshops under our belts, the most initiations by sacred orders or tribes... Knowing the most "spiritually advanced" people... That ego, it is a sneaky little monkey! "Spiritual work" without the "personal work" of learning to detach our ego from the way we connect to the Divine is not spiritual work! As Lao Tzu says, do your work and then step back...

Being At Peace
Tags: peace, acceptance, Being Present, coherence, control, Emotions, Perception, Surrender, Trust
Being at peace does not mean everything has come to a standstill. It is instead the ability to be within the motion that already exists and flow with it. The earth is spinning on its axis but because we turn with it we do not feel its motion. Imagine marching against it's rotation because you wanted to "right" the Earth's motion. So often we want to control chaos and bring it to stillness because it makes us feel uncomfortable... but to be truly at peace with chaos we need to embrace it, be right in the thick of it, not fight it. We need to feel the uncertainty it brings up in us and ride it out. Awareness brings us into coherence with our environment, it makes us one with it. Chaos is meant to be chaotic, it has its own course. To react in any way to dampen it only contributes to it.

When Lightning Strikes…
Tags: acceptance, attachment, evolution, Paradigm shift, Power, Spiritual path, Surrender
When lightning strikes a forest it chars and burns leaving huge gaping holes... But it also clears a path for more light to enter and creates space for something new to grow. We all have these moments where it feels like lightning struck out of nowhere... In these moments it is important to remember it wasn't personal and we are being given an opportunity to expand our light and grow.

Phase Locking With the Earth
Tags: vibration, awareness, coherence, Collective Consciousness, Consciousness, Frequency, Measurements, Power, Surrender
Interesting fact: The magnetic frequency of the Earth is 7.83 Hz... the same resonant frequency of the alpha wave brain state. Alpha wave consciousness is the state of deep relaxation associated with intuition. When we are in ayni with the Earth, aligning our consciousness with hers, when we are in magnetic resonant phase, we are in a place of deep intuitive openness. When we meditate we are phase locking with the earths frequency... cool stuff...
