FOR THOSE LACKING SELF-WORTH,
OR WHO SABOTAGE THEMSELVES,
IN CRISIS OR SUFFERING FROM DEPRESSION AND MEANINGLESSNESS IN LIFE.

AND FOR THOSE WHO WONDER: "IS THIS ALL THERE IS?"

Much of what happens in the world is a direct result of what is happening within us. This is not mystic woo-woo; rather, it is sourced from ancient wisdom, the science of consciousness: the end of seeking.

If we lack self knowledge-to know and embody what it means to be fully human-then we live with a case of mistaken identity. We think we are small, limited, meaningless. (At best).

But ancient wisdom proves we're not that: we are whole, limitless, complete, nondual and yes-ordinary.

Do no harm: know and give the gift already present-the gift of the real you, the whole of you, free from childhood conditioning and inhibiting patterns.

Know the real you. Not the one you currently think you know.

The difference will make all the difference:

- Within you
- For all

(Please note: Like most everything in Facebook and all social media, this post is incomplete as the conditions described and proposed paths forward are unable to respond fully to the innumerable varieties of human conditions present. If this resonates with you, use them as signposts-street signs that guide you towards consciousness-revealing all of you-and away from unconsciousness.

Or meaning and fulfillment and away from suffering. Of course, you are always invited to PM me as well).

What happens to your life-personal and professional-if you shift the order of the list below so the last seven entries not only start this list, but also are purposely scattered throughout it?

THE LIST

Business, advancement, profit, customers, business, busyness, winning, costs, dominate, business, busyness, profit, competition, business, advancement, profit, customers, business, busyness, winning, costs, dominate, business, profit, competition, business, advancement, profit, customers, business, busyness, winning, costs, dominate, business, profit, competition, business, advancement, profit, customers, business, busyness, winning, costs, dominate, business, busyness, profit, competition, peace of mind, rest, play, contemplation, self inquiry, stillness, joy, quiet...

Within us certain forces exist. Conscious and unconscious. We all are illumined by consciousness and eclipsed by consciousness. Self knowledge-to know (and embody) what it means to be fully human-enables success, however measured, personally and professionally. Mental health improves. Suffering reduces.

Choose the path of self knowledge, because it reveals, recovers, remembers all who you really are.

And what a gift and contribution that is.

The crisis presents many opportunities for reflection, including how we choose to react or respond when confronted with universal values, including
- Do no harm
- Do unto others as you would have others do unto you

We tend to get consumed with primitive urges when confronted, and act on first impulses. That usually has undesirable results.

Universal values are studied, learned , practiced and embodied.

Unfortunately they are not formally taught. These values are the underpinning of our being human fully. They guide us to wholeness.

To peace, too.

If interested, please message me.

Humanity is a beautiful mix of spirit and matter woven by all the Gods’ Graces to be whole at all times.

Hard to believe this reality, isn’t it? Especially when greed, destruction, despair and death are so prominently headlining our lives.

A powerful metaphor about who we really are, our real nature, is observing sun, or moon, and the clouds that obscure them.

Spirit is sun (though spirit is not an object). It infuses everything-illumines everything-all the time. It is whole, limitless, sublime, ever present-and ordinary. Just one of trillions of stars and planets.

The clouds are metaphors for the thoughts and feelings that obscure who we really are.

Most of us are affixed to the clouds. They’re powerful, dark, sometimes bearing harsh experiences.

Clouds dissipate to reveal the ever present sun. They always do. The value of knowing who you really are, and not what you think and feel you are, enables you to bathe in the sun even if clouds are present. Peace.

I find that takes great commitment, study, practice. It is a moment to moment to moment industry. It is made more difficult if you had a particularly difficult childhood.

Why?

Parents and family culture (God bless them all) install a primitive, buggy software program that’s hard wired and buried miles deep. If you are generally loved, affirmed, supported, embraced without hesitation, and the culture is relatively crisis and drama free, then you will likely enjoy a confident, light filled life.

But if you had tough experiences and harsh lessons-violence, addicted parent, safety concerns-then you may have a steeper hill to climb. You might over-identify with the clouds because you were never told about the sun.

I’ve spent scores of years learning about the sun, while still over identifying with those pesky, daunting ferocious clouds.

And that seems to be just a part of the weave that ensures the whole.

Learn about your sun.

You’ll love what you’ll see.

Peace.

And good morning.

Turn toward the sun within to dissolve the unconsciousness that eclipses it.

Then we may fully enjoy nature. And find so much more within that.

For your contemplation

Prior to Covid, another pandemic existed which continues to this day.

That scourge on humanity? A lack of self worth.

Many think we’re less than others: less than all in the worst cases.

In fact, it could be argued that that pandemic led to this one. Our unconscious desires violate nature. And nature will always win (though nature is not interested in such a petty games of winning and losing. It just ensures the whole - another game altogether. And one we must learn if we are to flourish.

But how? Healing from this pandemic includes giving space from others to reduce spread of the disease.

To heal from the other pandemic requires the opposite with a twist: you must get closer to your real self. A reality that is impaired by one’s unconscious conditioning (stuff we were told when young about the who, what, when, where, why of us, others and life).

Take this time to get close to the real you. It requires three things:
1) a burning desire to know one’s self
2) a source that is proven to shed ignorance and reveal what it means to be fully human
3) a qualified teacher

To know who you are is the greatest contribution one can make to one’s self, others, humanity
and the planet.

Commit to social self intimacy.
