S3E2 - Our Potential to Change the World – Lessons Learned about Love, Life & Awakening

01/25/22 • 56 min

This episode consists of me talking about the lessons I have learned about love, life, and awakening over the last 18 months - especially out of some key work for the podcast, but also from spiritual growth work not yet covered by the podcast. So I also cover a series of personal "spiritual studies" that I undertook, and I have not yet talked about these in any podcast episodes until this one. I talk about eight "big spiritual growth experiences" that have greatly affected me, and these have resulted in my greater awakening and personal transformation. When taken together and synthesized, I think they also serve as a basis for a shared vision for humanity's evolution and awakening which, given time, could lead to creation of a new world. (I will be sharing much more in future episodes.) In this episode, I refer to it as "Heaven on Earth" but that certainly is somewhere out in the future. It hinges on enough people developing their consciousness to be love-based instead of fear-based and to live accordingly. But that can begin quite simply by enough people deciding that they want that change for themselves, and then sharing their experiences with others. Personally, I have found that my own decision in favor of love to be quite transformational for me, and I love the results I am experiencing in my life. I hope you join me! So, my mission is to be a Voice for Love with you and everyone I encounter. You can contact me at [email protected].

S3E1 - A Conversation with Margaret Agard, Author of the "In His Footsteps" Books

In this episode, my guest is Margaret Agard, the author of the "In His Footsteps" books. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. She is the first guest I've had on the podcast who is a Christian writer, and I was a bit uncertain how it would go since so many Christians are very rigid in their beliefs. But Margaret is a self-described "Christian mystic", meaning that she is willing to explore spirituality and seeks to experience God directly rather than just know about God and the Bible. (That is the key difference between being spiritual versus religious.) In fact, she has had many direct experiences of God that started when she "began giving her daily to-do list to God". She did that initially because she was overwhelmed with her life, and she says that it changed her whole life for the better. And she wants to share her story and her message with others who will listen. She gave many examples of God guiding her in service to others, and that is what could change the world for the better if people would pay attention to our universal oneness. You can learn more about her and her books at InHisFootsteps.com.

S3E3 - Understanding the Universe and Our Place In It

This episode continues to expand on lessons learned introduced in the previous episode (S3E2). Basically, I attempt to provide a good summary understanding that I have gained from continued spiritual studies, and it focuses on understanding the universe and our place in it from a spiritual perspective. I want to share my understanding with listeners. So this episode is presented as a series of ideas or concepts that start with fundamentals and then keep building toward a more complete picture. This begins with the most fundamental spiritual idea that I learned more than 20 years ago - that there is one universal consciousness or Infinite Intelligence and that all matter, energy, and life arises from. Consciousness is primary. And I go on to briefly explain how love is the force that holds the universe together and is the creative force that is the source of life itself. Life is a great continuous unfolding of God consciousness into the diversity of all matter and all physical and spiritual beings. I also state in very basic terms how belief in separation is the cause of all human difficulties and pain, how that translates into the collective world that is steadily going from bad to worse, and that we must shift our thinking (and related behavior) from separation to unity/oneness and from fear-based thinking to love-based thinking. (Subsequent episodes will continue to build a more complete understanding, including how we can awaken and make the kinds of individual and collective changes that will make a difference to people and to the world as a whole.)
