Can I entice you into spending an eternal moment with me... "Out beyond the ideas of right-doing and wrong-doing is a field- I'll meet you there."

To intuit art is to Prophetize

Simultaneously we exist, It is all time, all thought, all potential, possible, probable realities, coexisting in a harmonious perfection that yields itself to everything and nothing... a pinpoint abyss. Like the world, once flat and linear then becomes round, so too does time curl around back onto itself and declare it’s totality.
We view our reality as distinction, one thing in contrast to another, and as we deconstruct these boxes that we inherit by society and history, conventions and traditions those distinctions begin to break down, what we are left with is Energy. Creation, to form something from nothing, to make form from the formless, every moment we exist, every moment we perceive we are choosing and therefore constructing, developing defining. To be aware of this... is a privilege, is a gift, it is your freedom, your responsibility... it is YOUR reality and YOU create it.

The intuition is our guide, it is that which connects us to the energy that is everything, to all time and no time. It is latent within most of us, unseen or unheard, like the quiet whispers between to waves of the sea. Yet it is that which allows us to expand our mental domain beyond the walls of logic, where contradictions can co-exist. We are able to perceive the order behind the chaos, the multiplicity of our reality and are given access to a new wealth of knowledge.

The construction of truth is power... define your own truth, and derive your own power. Expand the meaning. The goal is not to give what you have, but to expand what you have to give. I call forth an evolutionary revolution, to go within and attune ourselves with the universal, for there is the voice of your truth. To all who find yourself on this path, you are my fellow pioneers... Tis Freedom’s Breath We Speak.


“We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, remembered gate
When the last of earth left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half heard, in the stillness
Between two waves of the sea.
Quick now, here, now, always–
A condition of complete simplicity
(Costing not less than everything)”
-T.S. Eliot


“There is an eerie chaos behind the order, but there is an even eerier order behind the chaos.” ~ Computer Scientist

“Disconnected remarks, chance meetings are transformed to incontrovertible proofs in the eyes of a man with imagination, provided there is a little fire in his heart.” ~ Schiller

“The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problems.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi

“Until a radical change takes place and we wipe out all nationalities, all ideologies, all religious divisions, and establish a global relationship - psychologically first, inwardly before organizing the outer - we shall go on with wars.” ~ J. Krishnamurti
