WHY YOUR ASCENSION EFFORTS ARE FAILING

Second Thoughts About Ascension There is a huge movement(?) in the larger spiritual community toward human ascension into the 5th Dimension . There seems to be a giant push to raise human consciousness to a higher harmonic plane of existence. If you look around on social media you will inevitably see an article or video or someone talking about the Awakening process, higher-selves, and ascension into 5D. According to ascension teachings, the earth and all beings living on the earth are in the process of shifting into a new reality - a higher dimension - in which a consciousness of love, compassion, peace and spiritual wisdom prevails. Some say this shift has been going on for decades and will probably be complete within a few more; others give no date. But everyone pretty much agrees it will be complete sometime in the near future. Individuals will be each moving into the Fifth Dimension at their own rate when their frequency is high enough to match the vibration of th...

5 SIGNS OF SPIRITUAL ARROGANCE

Humility is a Virtue If you are a follower of any 'Spiritual" groups on Facebook or other social media outlet, you might have run into people who are - for lack of a better term - spiritually arrogant. You can see it when people talk about how " awakened " or " enlightened " they are. Particularly in reference to another person or differing belief. You know what I'm talking about... phrases such as "Before my awakening", or "people still caught in the matrix", or "When he awakens he will understand".  In any field, whether it’s sports, the arts, profession, or spiritual growth, there are always going to be some people that are farther along in their development than others... but that's not the point. More so, it is what happens to people once they begin to expand into levels of awareness they've never felt before. How does this happen? We live in a society where “trash-talking” athletes and eg...

INDIVIDUALITY AND THE COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS

Are We More Connected Than We Think? I have observed much confusion in many spiritual circles when it comes to the idea of what "Collective Consciousness" is, or means, and how it relates to our individuality. To add to the confusion, it has different (yet similar) meanings from the social and spiritual standpoints. In 1893, French sociologist Emile Durkheim coined the term “collective conscience" in his book, "Division of Labour in Society”. Durkheim thought the term meant the " shared ideals and moral standards that operate as a society’s unifying force, the beliefs that bind and hold any group together. " Durkheim used the term to indicate a level of shared consciousness in the members of traditional clan/tribe-based cultures. Since then, people have begun to expand the concept, using other terms to describe the phenomena: group-brain, hive-mind, mass-mind, the oversoul. The idea has even broadened and deepened now to a bigger sense of shared ...

HURRICANE HARVEY - A TIME FOR UNITY

Image Courtesy of Getty Images Turning Darkness to Light Southeastern Texas has been absolutely pummeled with destruction in the wake of Hurricane Harvey. From flooding in Houston to the complete destruction of Port Aransas, Aransas Pass, and Rockport, Harvey has left tens of thousands of residents stranded and in need of help. As a Texan in the impact zone, I know first-hand how much help is needed. Everything from food and water, to toiletries, to batteries, diapers, baby formula, debris removal, lunches for relief workers, and so much more is needed and put to good use in relieving the suffering of those of us who are affected. One thing that has particularly caught my attention is how willing and ready people are to lend a hand. What has been an amazing thing to see is that people have laid aside their differences in an effort to relieve those who are suffering. At this moment, in the affected zones, there is no black, white, brown, rich, poor, upper-class, or lower-...

THE PAINFUL TRUTH OF SPIRITUAL AWAKENING

The Dark Side of Awakening As humans, whether we like it or not, we are in a constant state of spiritual awakening. We are constantly growing, learning, and nourishing our inner-being by continuing to have life-experiences. Even when we seem to be in a spiritual retrograde - or suffer from spiritual fatigue - we are on a path of awakening. Even when we've felt a previous awakening within ourselves, the journey continues. We travel from one awakening to the next - each revealing new secrets about who we are and why we are here. Sometimes, we even return to a previous awakening. There, we learn pieces of the lessons we didn't learn the first time through. And with each awakening, we grow closer to the convergence of our mind, body, and spirit in what is sure to be the ultimate state of being. The Painful Truth Many people think of the terms "Spiritual Awakening" and "Enlightenment" and have a mental image of the sun breaking through the clouds...
