In the October 2012 issue of the Active Consciousness Newsletter, I wrote about my growing fascination with Hawaiian mysticism — sometimes called Huna. My interest in the wisdom of Hawaii was triggered when I began reading the Spiritwalker trilogy of books by Hank Wesselman, who now teaches workshops on the subject. I can also highly…

A few years ago, while I was writing Active Consciousness, I was talking to an acquaintance about higher dimensional space and how I believed human awareness could transcend the boundaries of our three-dimensional physical bodies. He immediately said, “You’ve got to read this book — The Ever-Present Origin” and wouldn’t let up until I agreed…

No doubt about it — this has been a difficult flu season, especially on the East Coast. Homeopaths have also been having some difficulty treating this year’s flu, possibly because there seem to be several different presenting pictures. There just might be several different flus going around, so a single set of genus epidemicus remedies…

In November 2012, I took my first-ever private retreat at Vajrapani Institute in the Santa Cruz mountains. For two days, I was by myself in my own little cabin, alone with my thoughts, my Self, my dreams. The institute is affiliated with the Mahayana Buddhist tradition, and the lay people who run it dedicate themselves…

It wasn’t my original plan to start off 2013 with an article about something as difficult as the killings in Newtown, CT. But perhaps it is good to start off the year with a resolution for true change. Needless to say, the most obvious lesson we can take away from the sad events in Newtown…

Hey Everyone! Thanks to Sergio of Lub of Friendly Favors (who sponsored the  event), I had a wonderful time on November 15, 2012 speaking at the Institute  of Noetic Sciences.  Click on the photo to watch the video, and if that doesn’t work, you can always use this link. Sergio also took these great pictures…
