Spirituality and Religion
Nowadays when I hear the words “New Age”, it kind of makes me nauseous. I’ve never liked labels much, and whenever someone would ask me what I’m into and hear me rattle off a list of crystals, moon rituals, and manifesting, I usually would have the same label splattered on me time and time again….”Oh, […]
We’ve all heard at one time or another someone say that a person “has spirit” or that a song might be “soulful”, and what is apparent is that BOTH spirit and soul invoke emotion and are deeply embedded within us, so that when the creative force they invoke surfaces whether it be via painting, writing, singing, or mud wrestling (lol), each bring from our core that which makes us each human beings with a living purpose. They are intertwined and affecting one another as a whole, and yet maintaining their respected uniqueness and differences all the while.

Just before Easter weekend, Pope Francis was quoted by an Italian journalist, who claimed the outspoken Catholic figurehead had denied the existence of hell. A comment like this is big news for such a big belief system, and shortly after the story was published the Vatican refuted the statements, calling it all a misquote. By then, however, the story had already been picked up by international media, generating significant controversy. Here are a couple things the Pope would never tell you about hell.
From a Yogic perspective, Resurrection is an initiation {Kriya yoga} where the soul unifies with spirit. The soul’s ascension from the Maya of confinement of body consciousness into the omnipresence of god/source communion. When Jesus, attained oneness with the Absolute {after his crucifixion, through a yogic science of ascension – consciously leaving the body through the third eye – mahasamadhi} he then went through a process which explains the prophecy of rising again after 3 days: “Destroy this temple {body temple}. and in three days I will raise it up.”
Cymatics is modal vibrational phenomena. Or in other words, it is the beautiful, intrinsic, and geometrically perfect patterns that emerge when matter such as water or sand placed in or on a plate that is disrupted by a sound wave of a particular frequency.

Both from the stage, and from the audience’s entry way, the room unmistakably resembles a snake, even though some write this off as delusional thinking, warning people away from considering it’s deeper meaning.
Sometimes I’ll come home after a long day and close the door behind me and just stand there. In the dark. Enjoying the quiet. I’ll breathe for a few minutes and let my nervous system settle. I’m home. I’ve entered into that safe, welcoming space that reflects myself back to me. There is my hook […]
