Spirituality - Sacred Spiral

Video cover for module 1. Introduction and light discussion of the main themes.

This module addresses: conditioning, beliefs, attitudes, thoughts, intentions, feelings, emotions, our 'buttons' & reactive behaviours, general behaviours, sub conscious mind, conscious mind, super conscious mind, spirit and consensual reality.

One of the big issues with the consensual reality we all have to live in, is that your perception and understanding may not be mine. Your meaning and values may not be mine. Especially in the modern day work environment, but also inter-personally, knowledge in this area can be highly useful.

This module looks at ways we can understand what is happening and begin to skillfully navigate through the daily maze of consciousness as it occurs.

Modern science tells us that we all use approximately only 5% of our total mind in a fully conscious  way. The other 95% is made up of various auto-pilot programs. So in this module I look into this a bit deeper and also introduce the notion of a third mind - the super conscious. The material includes tools and techniques to help us gain knowledge of how to effectively leverage these three levels of mind we all have for a more fulfilled, joy-filled and meaning-filled life.

Once we understand exactly what metaphor and symbol is, we start 'seeing' them virtually wherever we look. This module delves into ways that that symbols play out in our lives and how we can begin to take advantage of this knowledge for our own upliftment and the inevitable uplifting spin off to those around us. 

From both a Spirituality standpoint and the discoveries of cutting edge science, what is emerging is knowledge of the specific vibrational 'signature' of the Universe. This includes naturally our own thoughts, feelings, emotions and behaviours as 'frequency generators'.

The module addresses this as a serious topic for inclusion in our Spiritual practice and knowledge and understanding of ourselves, life, the Universe and everything.

I have chosen here to use the ancient Toltec concept of Tonal and Nagual since this description seems to fit far more comprehensively than the Western idea of Spirit and Matter. In the final analysis however, the concept is really the same as God and His Creation or Infinite Intelligence and the Manifested Universe.

Psychedelics and other artificial methods of altering our consciousness are gaining huge popularity recently. This article looks at some of the pro's and con's and offers a perspective. Included are great video links and an Mp3 Guided Meditation to help you on your way with this endeavour.

Use these  'moods' as tools to deliberately naviagte skillfully through all the various shades of daily life consciousness. As we consciously evolve our own consciousness, we automatically have an impact on those around us. By uplifting ourselves, we have a spin off effect and uplift others. The module discusses the moods and gives examples that we can all relate to.

Many traditions use a 'four directions' model to ascribe various qualities, techniques, propensities and more. The concept probably arose originally among native american cultures and then spread around from there as we became more and more 'integrated' in recent times. The model I discuss here is extremely useful as a reference point and anchor for working with the evolution of our own awareness and consciousness.

Video cover for module 2. Introduction and light discussion of the central themes.

A discussion around common habits and routines and how these can either keep us stuck or serve us constructively.

Quantum physics and other related sciences that are beginning to study and include the field of consciousness, are all coming to the conclusions that the true nature of Time, Space, Energy and Matter are not at all what we have believed in the past. Linear Time for example, is only applicable from within the farthest extremity, or most dense level, of physical matter. Once we alter consciousness in some way, Linear Space, Matter and Time change as well. And so of course does our perception of the manifest realms. In this lecture we explore these fascinating new areas of reality further and discuss relations to various ancient systems of spirituality and metaphysics

Most of us are unaware of the true nature of apparent reality, the immediate, physical reality we apprehend that seems so absolutely real and unquestionable. So of course we all take our current circumstances and conditions very seriously, whether they are percieved to be good or bad or somewhere in between. In this module I address the underlying nature of our circumstances and what it all means from a spiritual perspective.

Here we introduce and discuss the ancient question Who Am I?

This important lecture looks at the dynamic differences between our personal self and our spiritual self. Naturally this knowledge is vital to making accurate distinctions and understanding our roles as we endeavour to live a spiritual way in the world.

The assignment aims to summarize the section and to check relevance within the context of own life.

Video cover and discussion for module 3

A simple, yet deeply profound formula is given in this module that will enable us to very quickly asertain whether we are on the right track spiritually for our soul's purpose and living a fulfilled and meaningful, heart governed life.

This is probably one of the biggest areas where folk struggle. The primary relationship of our lives is the one with ourselves. So this naturally needs to be addressed before we can really deeply hope to have fulfilling, meaningful or simply effective relationships with others.

Many folk get very confused when the subject of masculine and feminine comes up. The first line of perception always seems to be to default to gender. In reality these are two different states of awareness that exist throughout all levels and dimensions of the universe and are therefore present and capable of deliberate assemblage within both males and females.

The module looks at the inner workings of these states and how we can all begin to leverage them within our own psycho-sphere.   

Perfectionism is a closely allied associate of competing 'against' another. This is how our Western culture actually maintains separatism, territorialism and 'I win, you lose' competition that underlies basically every area of our modern society.

The line of development of a separatist mind-frame soon turns into aggression, division and racism, acrimony and then violence and eventually, the vicious tragedy of outright war. Thankfully we have an alternative choice of an operating system in the concept of Impeccability.

Where do we even begin with all this material? This module looks at where to start and helps new students gain some initial clarity and get some priorities in place.

Assignment Second Module

Video introduction and discussion for section 4.

This ancient system of describing the energetic 'vortices' that act as transformers into and out of our physical bodies from our electro-magnetic fields, gives us a superb model to frame our endeavors to achieve coherence on all levels of our being. Practical advice and discussion is given regarding the ways in which these important levels of our being express and interact with each other into our daily lives.

See also our video resource section later in the course for downloadable chakra meditation and chants that you use for your private sessions.

Use this guided breath-work Chakra balancing Meditation in tandem with the other material.

Use these ancient Chakra Balancing Chants to individually and collectively align and invigorate all seven of the major electro-magnetic centres within our pranic field (energy field)

Use this Cakra Meditation as a part of your regular practice. Early mornings are best before the business of the day has started. The time around dawn is powerful with the withdrawn, quiet energy of the night giving way to the rising, bright energy of daylight and the rising sun. If you specifically wish to calm, centre and relax, the time around sunset would be more beneficial since the turning of the day to night will enhance lowering your overall psychic signature.

This useful map of the constitution of man is adapted from the ancient Toltec teachings

Like climbing up to the top of a mountain and looking down on a village, the cars and people and houses all look so small. A change of perspective often gives us break, a breath of fresh air and can be invaluable to navigating through difficult times and circumstances in our lives.

O.B.E (Out Of Body Experiences) and Lucid Dreaming are excellent, fully in-control altered states. The biggest plus here is that they offer us access to deeply altered states while remaining fully in control of our awareness at all times. This is a superb opportunity to explore the nature of reality and consciousness and answer the age old questions of who am I, where did I come from and where am I going to?

See our video section for downloadable video/audio resources that you can practice at home.

Regular use of this guided Deep Meditation will greatly assist you to become familiar with closely allied yet altered from normal, states of awareness. Out of Body Experience and Lucid Dreaming as well as Deep Meditation are vital altered states that will bring Spiritual insight and profound realignment of our perception and understanding of ourselves as to our true nature, destiny and purpose in physical life.

From Quantum Physics to Esoteric Spirituality, both modern and ancient streams of knowledge, the idea of the apparent reality world we all know as our mundane reality, contains the theme that in essence, our deep nature as humans is to 'reflect'. This means on some level that what we 'see' around us is like looking into a mirror. The images we apprehend are facets and projections of our very 'selves'.

This module goes into this concept a little further and offers some tools to begin working with this all important element of spirituality.

Using our personal physical death to inform our daily and life priorities and actions can be a powerful tool for personal growth and change. Not meant in any kind of negative sense, but as a primal technique for gaining sobriety both within smaller life situations and the bigger picture of our lives and spurring us to enjoy and maximize our time that we have here on the physical plane.

This module looks at the vital tools of Relaxation, Contemplation, Visualisation and Deep Meditation. These are really foundational practices for making progress on our spiritual path. Mp3 Guided and Subliminal Audios are included for you to work with.

We give a brief synopsis of Yogic breathing (Pranayama) for changing our state of mind and gradually improving health.

Assignment Fourth Module

This guided Meditation takes us through the basics of the Zoom Out technique. One can adapt, extend or shorten the process in accord with your own needs. The important thing is to firstly understand what is involved and why and then secondly, to practice as regularly as possible so that it becomes familiar and easy.

Advanced Audio Meditation for complete Separation from the Physical Body

Some book suggestions that could be supportive to the material in this course.

This is a guided Meditation with Pranic Breathing taking us into familiarity with the eight fold constitution discussed in Module 4.

When we combine Sacred Sound with the power of Universal awareness in the form of 'Light', we have a potent formula for Spiritual growth, Healing and development in our personal lives. Run this guided audio regularly as part of your Spiritual practice.

This guided Pranic Breathing video with awareness development Meditation is also useful as a regular part of our daily sacred time.

This Guided Meditation in the woods continues the theme of 'Zoom Out a 1000 Yards'. I consider this technique and it's eventual full development one of the most important Meditations to do regularly.
