The Master Jesus, more than just embodying a figure to worship or to follow, represents something very deep within our consciousness. This is why in our Gnostic studies we explain the physical personages of the past, from diverse religious traditions, came to represent principles. They lived in their flesh and bone a state of being that we need to cultivate. Therefore, Christ as the human individual represents in us the principle of the inner Christ, our inner divinity, that light which can shine within the depths of our very heart, to illumine the mistakes of our past and the state of our suffering.

Our focus today is to learn how to develop that principle in us, to understand what it means psychologically, and to know how to apply methods to develop greater insight in our daily life, especially in terms of how we approach problems, how we cultivate virtue, and also how we conquer vice.

We will learn how to awaken, develop, sustain, and expand the intelligence of the heart, the wisdom of the heart, the ability to understand, very deeply, how to negotiate and navigate the great crises that are afflicting our contemporary humanity.

We will also learn that the heart must learn to balance the mind if what we really seek is genuine peace.

A Genuine Spiritual Master, The Competent Qualified Teacher (Sant Satguru) - Spiritual Awakening Radio, A Sant Mat Satsang Podcast

"The fruits of accepting a true master are immense. Unfortunately, true teachers are few and difficult to find... A spiritual master who is wise, pure and a practitioner of the Yoga of Divine Sound gradually imparts his or her virtues to the student. The good will of the spiritual teacher cannot but help affecting the aspirant in a positive manner because one is affected by the power of a higher vibration." (Maharshi Mehi, The Philosophy of Liberation)

My Ode to the Sant Satguru

In Praise of the Sant-soul of love

who has reached the Spiritual Realm above,

and merged in God.

Hail to the Competent Living Master,

the Qualified Teacher,

rare to find in this world,

so few and far between,

the True One,

a genuine mentor of souls,

righteous and worthy Guide,

a Fearless Being,

Light-giver,

leader of a spiritual community.

With gratitude to the Competent Living One!

In a Sea of Samsara -- illusion and world of changes,

of falsehood and posing,

there is a bright Light in the darkness.

A silent Music becomes audible.

At the feet of such a Loving, Radiant One,

the soul can not help but find inner Light and

slip into deep samadhi meditation.

In the eyes of a Saint are

love, wisdom, light, compassion, grace,

a reflection of God in this realm of the material plane.

The Master-Power connects the soul with the

Supreme Lord of Love.

Self-care

If you're unable to afford therapy, there are several self-care practices and resources you can explore to support your mental and emotional well-being. Here are some strategies that may be helpful:

Mindfulness and Meditation:

Practice mindfulness meditation to increase self-awareness and reduce stress.

Use mindfulness apps like Headspace, Calm, or Insight Timer for guided meditation.

Physical Exercise:

Engage in regular physical activity, such as walking, jogging, yoga, or dancing.

Exercise helps release endorphins and promotes a sense of well-being.

Creative Outlets:

Explore creative activities like painting, writing, or playing a musical instrument.

Expressing yourself creatively can serve as a form of emotional release and self-exploration.

Social Support:

Foster connections with friends, family, or support groups.

Sharing your feelings and experiences with others can provide emotional validation and understanding.

Journaling:

Write down your thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a journal.

Journaling can help you process emotions and gain insights into your mental state.

Healthy Lifestyle Habits:

Maintain a balanced diet, prioritize regular sleep, and reduce the consumption of alcohol and recreational substances.

Establishing healthy lifestyle habits contributes to overall well-being and emotional stability.

Online Resources:

Utilize online mental health resources and communities for support and guidance.

Websites like 7 Cups, BetterHelp, and TherapyTribe offer online support and resources.

Self-Help Books and Podcasts:

Read self-help books or listen to podcasts focused on mental health and personal development.

Resources like "The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook" by Edmund Bourne or podcasts like "The Hilarious World of Depression" can offer insights and coping strategies.

Set Boundaries and Prioritize Self-Compassion:

Establish healthy boundaries in your personal and professional life to avoid emotional burnout.

Practice self-compassion and avoid self-judgment, allowing yourself to acknowledge and accept your feelings without harsh criticism.

While self-care practices can be helpful for some periods of time, it's essential to seek professional help if you're experiencing severe or persistent mental health challenges. Many therapists offer sliding scale fees or pro bono services, and some community organizations provide free mental health support. Don't hesitate to reach out for assistance when needed.

Echo der Zeit.

In der Unendlichkeit der Zeit leben wir unser Dasein. Jede Sekunde ist ein unaufhaltsamer Schritt Richtung Vergänglichkeit. Die Uhr der Existenz tickt unerbittlich. In der Stille der Zeit erhebt sich die Frage nach dem Wert unseres Handelns und dem Echo unserer Entscheidungen. Die Vergänglichkeit des Lebens läuft wie ein Film ab. Jeder Moment, den wir durchleben, wird zu einer Erinnerung, die uns bis in die letzten Augenblicke unseres Daseins begleitet. Doch am Ende erkennen wir die Wahrheit: Die Zeit, die wir bereuen, ist jene, die wir nicht mit Bedacht genutzt haben. In der Flüchtigkeit des Lebens liegt die Chance, bedeutungsvolle Spuren zu hinterlassen. Die Furcht vor dem Verlust sollte uns antreiben, bewusster zu leben. Das Bedauern am Ende mag bitter sein, aber es dient als Mahnung, dass wir in jedem Augenblick die Verantwortung für unser Leben tragen. Die Uhr tickt, doch in diesem unaufhaltsamen Strom der Zeit liegt die Freiheit, unserem Leben einen tiefen Sinn zu verleihen. Jede Entscheidung formt unser Schicksal, und jede Sekunde birgt die Möglichkeit zur Veränderung. Möge die Erkenntnis der Vergänglichkeit uns nicht lähmen, sondern inspirieren, unser Leben bewusst zu gestalten und einen bedeutsamen Sinn in der Unendlichkeit der Zeit zu finden.

We have an ambient noise podcast now, by the way.

[chicagognosis]

Spiritual discipline is what awakens us to divine reality, not belief.

Gnosis signifies knowledge from experience. Gnosticism, as a field of study, pertains to all the ancient schools of mysteries from both East and West, whose scriptures encompass the practical science of awakening consciousness. Gnosis is not isolated to the first Christians, but permeates all times, cultures, and spaces, for while consciousness is universal, the means of expressing such experiential wisdom of the divine is temporal and idiosyncratic to the language, mentality, and needs of a particular society.

Gnosis is what we have verified through experience and experimentation, predicated upon practical methods and personal effort. It is never the product of a belief system, of adopting a religious or mystical attitude, demeanor, or behavior. It is never achieved through attendance, adherence to, or acceptance from a group, by believing in doctrine or creed. It is the flowering and natural unfolding of the soul, which is created and developed when the proper causes and conditions have been met.

Just as there are laws that govern the physical universe, so too are there spiritual laws, causes, and methods to originate the soul: the awakening of the consciousness.

Therefore, the Greek term γνῶσις gnosis is synonymous with genuine faith. Faith has nothing to do with belief, with accepting or rejecting a concept in the mind or upholding a sentiment in the heart. Faith is what we know from facts, from witnessing and understanding reality. Belief takes no effort to foster or develop, whereas the awakening of consciousness and divine experience requires tremendous discipline and the application of spiritual works.

Survivor Guilt (2014) by Ron Padgett

In Episode 310, Rachel shares a poem guilty of being simply too good!

Rachel: The poet James Tate wrote: “Ron Padgett's poems sing with absolutely true pitch, and they are human-friendly. Their search for truths both small and large can be cause for laughter or at least a thoughtful sigh.” Which is exactly the kind of poet that I'm looking typically to bring to Wonderful. You know. Uh, a poet from a human.

Griffin: You did bring that dog poet one time—

Rachel: [laughs]

Griffin: —which I thought was... interesting?

Rachel: Bark... bark, bark, bark. Bark.

Griffin: I carry it in my bark.

I was gonna add a personal comment as usual, until I found this quote by Ron Padgett, that seems to have been made almost specifically for Rachel and Griffin: “Survivor Guilt is not about feeling bad about watching Survivor (the T.V. show). It’s about fickleness (a word we don’t hear much anymore). Plus ça change…”

If you'd like to hear about Ron directly soliciting poems from well-known authors to publish in his literary magazine and succeeding to do so all while still being in highschool, you can do so here: Body Burn, from 5:23 - 12:43

Today, a brief exploration of the history, providing background on a key book of the Sant Mat tradition of India: The Anurag Sagar (Kabir's Ocean of Love). Then there are spiritual satsang discourses based upon this book and related texts on the journey of the soul through the heavens back to God and the meditation practice of the Masters (Surat Shabd Yoga: Bhakti of the Inner Light and Sound). Find out, as best as we can research this rare history, who wrote the Anurag Sagar; what group originally published and circulated it for many generations; how it was also inherited, preserved, and valued as an essential scripture by Sat Saheb, Sant Dariya Sahib of Bihar, Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras, then more recently in Radhasoami: Swami Ji Maharaj of Agra, Baba Jaimal Singh, Hazur Baba Sawan Singh, and then spiritual Masters up to the living present.

Who Is God? Paul Chek on Consciousness & Non-Duality Explained

In a recent episode of the Clovis Culture Podcast, host Justin Nault sat down with the legendary Paul Chek to explore some of life’s most profound questions: Who is God? What is consciousness? How does the concept of non-duality shape our reality? With over 40 years of experience in spirituality, holistic wellness, and cognitive science, Paul Chek shares his unique insights into these questions, revealing how they influence not only our understanding of ourselves but also our spiritual journey.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of existence and the interwoven nature of reality. Here’s a breakdown of some key insights from the conversation, along with answers to common questions about consciousness, non-duality, and spiritual growth.

Key Themes from the Episode The Nature of Consciousness Consciousness, as Chek explains, is more than mere awareness; it's an energetic connection that exists beyond individual perception. According to Chek, understanding consciousness involves recognizing the interconnectedness of all things and seeing the world through a lens of unity rather than separateness.

Exploring Non-Duality Non-duality, or the belief in a unified existence beyond dualistic distinctions (like good vs. bad, self vs. other), is at the heart of Chek’s philosophy. He describes non-duality as a shift in perspective that aligns with universal oneness, freeing us from illusions of division.

Redefining God and Divinity Chek encourages listeners to rethink traditional definitions of God. Rather than seeing God as an external, distant entity, he suggests viewing God as the essence of life itself, present in everything and everyone. This perception opens the door to deeper spiritual connections and helps people see the divinity within themselves and others.

Meet the Hosts Paul Chek: A globally respected thought leader in wellness, spirituality, and cognitive science, Chek is known for merging ancient wisdom with modern science to promote holistic health. His work has empowered thousands to reconnect with themselves and find balance through mindfulness, nutrition, and self-discovery.

Justin Nault: As the founder and CEO of Clovis and creator of Clovis Daily Superfood Powder, Justin is a Certified Nutritional Therapist with a passion for helping people achieve their optimal health. He has worked with over 2,500 clients, transforming lives through personalized nutrition and lifestyle coaching.

Frequently Asked Questions What is consciousness, according to Paul Chek? Consciousness, in Chek's view, is a state of awareness that connects us with all forms of life. It's not limited to the mind but is an expansive, universal energy that we experience on a deeply personal level. Chek emphasizes that understanding consciousness is a way to perceive life with empathy and unity. How does non-duality affect our perspective on reality? Non-duality encourages us to see life beyond binary oppositions. Instead of viewing situations as strictly positive or negative, Chek explains that embracing non-duality allows us to see life as an interconnected whole, which can bring about inner peace and clarity. What does Paul Chek say about the nature of God? Chek’s understanding of God goes beyond religious definitions. He sees God as a pervasive life force, present in all beings and experiences. By recognizing this, Chek believes we can experience a deeper connection to life and find divinity within ourselves. Why are discussions on spirituality and consciousness important? Conversations on spirituality and consciousness help people explore the meaning of existence and their purpose. For Chek, these discussions empower us to overcome mental and emotional limitations, enhancing personal growth and fostering a healthier connection to the world.

Final Thoughts For anyone eager to explore consciousness, spirituality, and the idea of non-duality, this episode offers invaluable insights. The discussion between Justin and Paul is more than just theory; it’s an invitation to reframe our understanding of existence, to embrace a sense of unity, and to seek a life filled with compassion and purpose.

Be sure to tune in to this transformative episode on the Clovis Culture Podcast and immerse yourself in a conversation that could shift your perspective and inspire your journey to self-discovery.
