And John, the best teachers are the ones who can do and can teach.

I get hung up on this one a lot. I understand many of life’s lessons and theories and can quite easily explain them to anyone. Living them is a different story altogether which, I think, is why many people mistrust gurus; “they can sure talk the talk but can they walk the walk?”

However, the better I get a walking the talk the easier it is to spot the crock (of shit)! As you said earlier, you have to know your own truth.

BTW, your TED talk on honesty brought me here – great stuff!

You’re right Crystal. We attract that which we deny within ourselves.

Women denying their femininity will attract men in touch with femininity and denying their masculinity (not effeminate men, BTW).

If you want a trustable, reliable, conscious man, the first place is to look within and where you’re not expressing your feminine fullness in the world.

Read “Dear Love” by David Deida for more explanation.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the encouragement, Karen.

That’s a great distinction Daniel. I’ll remember that. Damn, it’s good to hear from you again, man.

As much as clever spiritual advanced we may think we are … There is so much more going on in our outer guidance system …

We may have heard of the inner guidance .. Which is powerful and .. It’s only less than 5 % ,.. 95%!!. is happening outside of us .. How crazy is that !

In this instant , what I am saying is that accusations, challenges , obstacles are all part of the individual perfect Devine plan to strengthen parts of us we are not aware of …which I k ow you know ..

That’s why we all needs gurus we can trust on an individual basis …. It’s like our individual soul guru ..

Spiritual education is needed to take people to higher level of conscious aware ness…

Keep us the great work Brucie Baby !!

When I was studying Kabbalah one of the things really stood out for me was the definition of gossip as the spiritual equivalent of bloodshed because the damage it creates can have such a lasting impact on the subject’s wellbeing and livelihood We can definitely see this with Roger and Werner

I find gossip such an insidious thing because even when you are conscious, it can taint your thinking and you have to be quite vigilant in making sure you don’t buy into it

Thanks for the vote of confidence for all spiritual women, but that doesn’t say much for our taste, now not does it?!Those men, struggled as valiantly as any other seeker, and are now some of the cornerstones of the spiritual community of this city; just took a while to get there 🙂

I have attended so many seminars etc and have yet to find my flow, I remember you advising us to turn the boat around and flow with the river,after 7 years of frustration one becomes disillusioned and tends to blame everyone else,Guru’s etc instead of taking ownership, it’s easier to play the blame game instead of realising that you still have challenges within yourself to conquer!
