Why our definition limits our experience with "It". I've spent the last few days teaching amongst the beauty in Sedona, Arizona. The landscape is unlike anywhere else I've been. Red rock that seems to hold light instead of just reflecting it. And yet what struck me more than the rock was the people. The ones who showed up to sit with me, to ask hard questions, to sit in silence afterward. There was a vastness in them too. A beauty that doesn't reduce to a single word. That's

The implementation of conscious living. The world is being redefined. You can feel it. It is in the instability of institutions, the fracturing of certainties, the sense that the ground beneath ordinary life is shifting in ways that cannot be reversed. Values are changing, degrading. And the world is shifting into a phase of destruction and rebirth. This disruption, although temporary, is a threshold. What you do at the threshold matters, especially now. "The Work" is what al

Unity as Love. There is something in every human being that recognizes incompleteness. Something of a signal. A quiet knowing that what you are carrying was never meant to be carried alone. That the love you are capable of is larger than what you have been able to express. Most people spend their lives explaining that feeling away, or filling it with things that almost work. This post is about what that feeling actually is, and what it is really pointing towards. The Desert O

Recognizing Egoic vs Divine guidance I get asked this question often: "How do I tell the difference between egoic communication and divine guidance?" This post will help to clarify some of what you may experience when I suggest people close their eyes and ask to be guided. There is something that became incredibly obvious on the return from my NDE. The Divine communicates. Constantly. Not metaphorically. Directly. Recognizably, and with a precision the ego cannot manufacture.

What moves through the opening. What I found on the other side of the threshold of death was not separation. It was the opposite. A union so complete it made every boundary I had ever believed in feel like a joke I'd been repeating to myself. When I came back, I came back knowing one thing above all else: we have never been disconnected. Not once. Not from each other, not from the divine intelligence in the room, not from love itself. And yet. Here you are, guarding yourselve

The sticking point between you and freedom. In two days it will be three years since I died. I do not say that to be dramatic. I say it because everything I am about to share comes from that side of the experience. What I know, I know because I have been where doubt cannot follow. And I have spent three years watching doubt keep people from what I know is real and available to them. This post is for those people. The Invisible Stall Something happens at a certain point on t

The question of your lifetime. As old beliefs fall away and the scaffolding of a life built on accumulation and achievement starts to feel less solid than it once did, a question surfaces that no amount of achievement can answer. Why am I here? This question is arriving more and more. I receive it in emails, podcasts, Zoom talks, audience events and it isn't slowing down. Most of the time the question sneaks in with a quiet or even silent desperation. The usually unsaid or wh

Where knowing becomes being. "Know the truth, and it will set you free." That is the promise of the enlightenment process. Study, practice, refine. Move toward unity through knowledge and understanding. It is a worthy path. Noble. But it has many steps. It's incremental, and is driven by insight and the gradual recognition of what is real. But there is a state the enlightenment process cannot take you to by process alone. Embodiment. Christ consciousness. It does not refine t

The love you didn't know you were missing. Self love isn't discussed enough. You could say that it is ignored in a way. It's not typically found to be a part of societal norms. And spiritually, most people are so busy reaching outside of themselves for a solution to their awakening or suffering that they don't give it a second thought. In most circumstances, earthly existence tends to be reduced to an exercise where you are here to grind out a life and love those who cross yo
