Indoctrination Blinding the Spiritually-oriented from their Participation in Evil

Many "evolutionaries" recognize the great change that's needed, usually citing social, economic and environmental crisis as evidence; yet they then promote a "solution" that ignores their own participation in the root source of all those problems.

4 Radical Tips for [Finding and Keeping] Happiness

We often think of evolution writ large, as a sweeping movement across species and worlds – and so it is; but for me, my own evolution is personal, it's something I can only experience in the quality of my relation to Life, to others, and to my self. It's a spiritual evolution on every scale, writ as large as the entire planet, or as small as, well...as small as I Am.

Walking the Shadow Path

Do you have enemies? The neighborhood bully perhaps, an annoying co-worker, a type-A boss, the 5-0, 'terrorists' or “the man?" Maybe you don't have a true flesh and blood enemy per se, there are just some particular characteristics, demeanors, and incorporeal ideas in man you find intolerable then?

Courage to face Uncertainty

What happens when we embrace the truth that we don't know?

What happens when you allow reality and everything about it, to be as it is, without expectation, without definition?

Reality is sometimes naked in its own mystery. Can you trust what is enough to let it be?

Raw?

This week has been very strange.

I've been re-reading Cosmic Trigger and have gotten heavily into it. For those who may not have read this essential tome, it's basically an autobiographical account of Robert Anton Wilson's exporaiton of the world of the occult and the strange things he experienced and learned.

Evolver Synchronicity Stories

I've heard a lot about synchronicity in people's journeys onto Evolver. I was thinking about mine, and there are a few pretty obvious synchronicities in it!

A simple truth

It's amazing just how simple things can and actually are. The truth appears to almost always be found after all the trappings (trappings used like the word trap) of the mind are striped away. In fact it appears that being truthful is just like standing before others naked, in a sense. (No, no do not take off your cloths that's not necessary, it's a metaphor, a symbol. LOL).

The Revolution can use Capitalism to Transcend Capitalism

"The Universe is Selling Cars to Itself"

this is the non-dual idea behind capitalism

Many "Evolved" sorts resist Social media and the funnel system (what is often called funnel marketing). But before you back away, think about it - the funnel system is simply offering your ideas or products or services or workshops along a range of price points

WHY?????

French Psychedelic Sci-Fi Animation

Remember the animated film Heavy Metal from back in the 80's? Well, the French made several films cut from the same cloth: sci-fi, psychedelic, surreal, mythopoeic. Two of these, also from the 80's, are Gandahar (also called Light Years ) and Les Maîtres du temps ( Time Masters in English).

Eye scream dream

When I awoke the first thought was that I had just confronted the devil in my dream. I remember walking down a street in an above average suburban neighborhood when I started to hear a hooplah from a vehicle that was driving my direction.

Two Psychedelic Conferences a World Apart
Nese Senol

Over the course of two consecutive weekends, I flew between Entheogenesis Australis (EGA), Australia's premier gathering of psychedelic pioneers, and Cartographie Psychedelica, a California-based conference celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS). These are some of my observations.
