I’ve always rebelled against structure. There’s so much of it. We’ve created endless structures that govern our lives. From our beliefs, social norms, traditions, governments, to fashions, taste and just about everything else. And I’ve always struggled to accept the structures around me. I spent a large part of my young life trying to break […]
My struggle to escape is an unconscious attempt to avoid living in a world that’s been robbed of it’s adventure, magic and fun. And ironically, while we’re looking for a way out, the solution lies within.
I’m an addict. And I’m not alone. We’re all addicts. Typically the word addict conjures up images from Trainspotting. Needles, overdose and abandoned buildings littered with rotting mattresses. While this is definitely the reality for some, there are many more people who are addicted in far less obvious ways. Coffee. Work. Exercise. Sex. Sleep. Procrastination. […]
If knowledge is power then perhaps the most powerful knowledge of all is the understanding that we are all one. That human beings, and the entire universe, is unified by consciousness. Consciousness is not generated by the brain. The brain is a sender and receiver of consciousness. Consciousness extends beyond the individual and connects apparently […]
Looking at the world around us, it’s clear that something isn’t quite right. Corruption at the highest levels. Wars. Famine. Pollution. Poverty. Environmental destruction. The annihilation of complete species. Perhaps even our own demise looms on the horizon… Sometimes it’s overwhelming. To the point where I want to shout: “What can I do!? I’m just […]
I read an interesting article here about abortion being practically illegal in Ireland, as it still is in many other places around the world.

How often have you heard the phrase “No words can describe…” or “Words cannot explain…”? Many people would be quick to assume that these are simply figures of speech. That actually, off course there are words to explain the experience, or the phenomenon, but that the speaker does not know these words, or that the […]
The universal consciousness field, or source field, is present throughout everything in the universe. The source field is that mysterious force that underpins the weird and wacky world of quantum mechanics. Quantum physicists tell us that all atoms are actually 99% empty space. Physical particles make up only 1% of all matter. It’s just that […]
Surrender to a higher power. After all this time what other choice is there? After all the ups were followed by downs, and all the downs followed by ups, and up and down and up and down, what other choice have we got left? How much longer will we fool ourselves into thinking that we […]
Emotion is nature’s way of allowing us to send information to ourselves about things we do not remember but which we must understand in order to grow. Emotions are generated in the body by thoughts in the mind, much like waves are generated in the ocean by wind in the atmosphere. Friction between air and […]
