The Mental Virus Part 2: Whats really going on?
Now that places are starting to open up, we can see the patterns taking shape even more clearly than before. One side wants everyone to stay inside forever, the other thinks the virus barely exists. We see very few frame of references that are in the center just reporting the data we have. The rule […]
The Mental Virus Part 1
I don’t have to start off this article like every other idiot and say “In case you have been living under a rock…” because we all know what’s going on. A virus has “swept the world” as they say and things have changed. Even though it’s a new buzzword by the blue check marks, things […]
Whether you want to admit it or not, you do have a choice.
One thing I find interesting about people is they think choice doesn’t exist in their life. While I would be the first to say that things “are as they are” in most situations, there are always choices to be made. Rarely are we involved in something where there is absolutely nothing we can do and […]
Depression and Choice
As I tweeted earlier today, one of the number one signs of depression is someone that feels they have no choice. They feel that every single thing is happening to them and there are no other options.

One of the greatest challenges of internal work is trying to discover your real “Self” while battling the worldly issues you face on a daily basis. And no matter how Awake you are, you will still battle them. The deeper question is why does someone become awake in this day and age, and still get […]
Missing the Point
One of the hardest things about teaching people how to transcend the mind, is how lost someone can get in the puzzle of cryptic teachings throughout the years. It’s very easy to miss the point in what these teachers were saying, but we will go over some of the popular ones here. If an ancient […]
The Block of the Mind
The mind is a survival tool. Its that simple. It has kept us alive, it has kept us safe. But when it runs out of things to hide from, it creates things to hide in. This is why, in 2018, we have so many things we worry about but none of them should be worried […]
