It has been my life work of choice to be a teacher of meditation, a clairvoyant healer, a spiritual counselor which is an amalgamation of my earlier employment as a corporate customer service soothe-sayer, a crisis intervention counselor, problem solver, and a nurse (way back in the early 1980's.) As the years went by, I realized that I was enduring some sort of 'Divine irritation' yet, at that time I had no idea what 'Divine irritation' meant let alone what it was and how powerful of a force that it is as it shapes your soul from the unconscious realm.
This irritation took form in a growing anger through witnessing how corporations treat their own employees and how 'people' (humans) that are called 'managers' will distort policies in attempt to protect their (power hungry) agendas for the needs of 'the business'. All the while, disconnecting from any common sense as it relates to (any) authentic service intended to be provided in the 'spirit of making good delivery' of assorted products and services.
Unchecked corporate greed is what is destroying our planet, our only true home, in pursuit of profitable gains, raising the bar each fiscal year competing against their own self-established profit margins, without regard to environmental consequences.
I still have this very clear memory of my being in my late 20's, sitting in my 5 x 5 1/2 foot cubicle (I actually measured it in a slower moment) among 50 or so other cubicles (we called them veal fattening pens) on the 13th floor at Charles Schwab headquarters, where in between the rapid fire of in-coming customer service calls, I was trying to decide whether or not if I believed in God or any form of spirituality. I remember contemplating this from a safe distance in a very left-brained intellectual-thinking space, where any past programming around religion was safely held at bay. Years later, I realized that this was due to deeply buried unconscious RAGE about the misdirection of TRUE spirituality and the (midieval to present) politics corrupting our (western) relationship to 'self' as spirit.
WHY DO WE BOTHER? We (collectively) are discovering that we need to do something about our ever-metastasizing carbon footprint on this planet, a sentient living organism. We are slowly waking up to the fact that we need to take urgent action to save ourselves from ourselves. Yet, we are beginning to wake up to the fact that we MUST realign our spirits to the planet as symbiotic organisms that are naturally occurring to Earth rather than perpetuating this disjointed concept that we are only loved by God if we go through all of these strange ideas of how to be Loved. Our neurosis manifests as an out of control train heading for a tangled collision of fear and uncertainty leading to disease and toxic thinking.
Traditional western religion has us buying into this fear-based distorted idea that God would chose to hurt you, or stop loving you for a randomized list of irrational fear-based reasons. This is an antiquated concept to gain cooperation during our lesser evolved tribal stages, to be less murderous and defensive in protecting our territories. Ironically through the past millennium we morphed this into other bizarre ideas of being seen as righteous and acceptable in the eyes of God. All the while the ''better known judeo-christian faiths" manipulated us (western culture) into large scale wars in the name of fighting evil. Yet we easily overlook how wars are about deliberately strategized profit and gain of taking territories and material assets. More recently, oil.
I do realize that I am taking huge broad swipes at the face of judeo-christian faiths, however my intention is to connect how patriarchal spiritual belief structures are only doing harm by totally dismissing the value of the spiritual side of matriarchal power and Her ability to heal that which is malformed or not fully understood, through deploying balance and compassion in making a conscious choice to choose love over fear.
To embrace our unique spiritual anatomy as it is without the over-flavorings of religion (the politics of God) and instead, to tune into our soul (the essence of the God of your authentic heart) is the most natural way to locate the spirit within as it resides, as you.
I invite you to embrace a meditation, whether it be through the class that I offer or through other sources that call to you, engaging your core common sense, your blissful heart, your connection to this world, as it is our Living Home.
If you are interested in trying out an easy and relaxing meditation class, feel free to attend a 1 1/2 hour session of a seven week series, where I teach you how to clear blocks, address your busy mind so you can get centered and feel truly empowered.
