“Like the most refined or alchemical distillate, or some primary source code, the architecture of true human connection somehow includes yet transcends the personal; interdependence is at once deeply intimate and utterly universal. Pure, moments of relating reach us at the root, touching, who we truly are, while simultaneously elevating what is possible for us to become. The sacred geometry of active interrelation is both a portal to everything we have ever been, individually, and ancestrally, and a gateway to the greater future potential of our species. To Colocate this future experientially is a sacred act of communion and a natural rite of ‘symbiotic unity’.
These things should not be taken as Pollyanna –-ish ideals. To arrive even at the furthest glimmer of the distant edge of our becoming, we have crossed and historic dark night. We have come face-to-face with the abyss, and in it, we must now reckon with the possibility of our own extinction. To survive, much less to flourish, we must make Conscious our essential interdependence and awaken into new forms of vibrant, sustained relation.
I have taken on a vocation around spiritual practice, dedicating my life and work to what I call the inner science of consciousness. The territory of consciousness can be explored and understood through practices, like meditation, study, prayer, movement, stillness, and through contemplation of self and nature – – as well as in contemplation of the relational dynamics that exist between ourselves and others, in the ordinary course of modern life.
