A personal account of how shared holding revealed the wisdom within fear, illuminating the metaphysics of community, relationality, and sacred stewardship.

When violence erupts, it reveals something larger than the act itself. We see the event, but beneath it are currents shaping the whole of our shared life: people swept into binary outrage, voices using divisive language or failing to stand for love, cruelty disguised as righteousness, and a collapse of discernment so complete that even those dedicated to truth are caught in its undertow.

We are starving for the divine. That hunger is everywhere. It shows itself in the restless way people chase meaning, in the empty shrine of materialism, in the way despair creeps in when nothing seems to matter. This hunger has been so twisted that longing itself is treated as foolish.

Purification is the beginning of initiation. It is not about scrubbing away sin, not about measuring up to some moral standard of purity, not about good and evil at war inside us.

You notice it. A comment that just lands wrong. A request that feels heavier than it should. A flicker of irritation or a little punch in the gut. And then, almost without thinking, you downplay it: For a moment, the truth rises. Something here isn’t right. And then, almost without thinking, you downplay it: It’s not a big deal. I’ll make a mental note of this and see what happens. That's the moment shared reality fades and the connection moves from co-creation to s

There’s a kind of reactivity that doesn’t look like reactivity. It looks like urgency. Like caring. Like trying to do the right thing, ask the right question, respond well to the moment.

Learn why critique doesn’t have to harm. Explore reflection, relational power, and sacred clarity in the art of shared discernment and contact.

These two forces often feed each other. Victim energy and Predatory energy are entangled. They both disconnect us from truth. They both create confusion in the field. And most people have both alive in them—running unconscious, running fast, running the show.

There is a current that moves through poets. It is real. It is powerful. It often sounds like truth. But poetic resonance is not the same...

Indeed, your teacher's humanity can be a wonderful place to witness and experience what a human in more of their own wholeness and acceptance of self looks and feels like. Not as a person who has “transcended” their human, but an integrated one. 

If we do not know you have lenses, and if you do not give attention to cultivating perception, you will miss more of the world than you capture or sense.

The average seeker is pursuing a life that is fulfilling to them, to find their purpose, to live their potential. The mystic is not seeking this. The mystic seeks to get out of the way of the life that is in them, to allow it movement, to follow where it leads, even when this clashes with, or offends, the dominant culture in which they find themselves. 

I found myself not sitting at my altar. A day turned into days turned into weeks that became something like months. I used to sit at my...

All of us belong to the miracle. We benefit greatly by releasing our attempts at being in the driver's seat and letting ourselves be danced by the terrifying wisdom that is more ancient and extraordinary than even the greatest mystics among us can grasp.
