A convergence is where two or more flows or currents meet and create an upwelling or downwelling. This coming together, or yoking of energies can lead to interesting things. ​Join Cynthia on a journey of stories from the past and glimpses into the future. Often a channelled message comes through and sometimes a special guest comes for an interesting conversation. You are sure to leave feeling inspired and comforted that you are not alone.

    Drama of the Gifted Child

    Labeled as "Gifted & Talented" from age 4 or 5, I tell the story of my journey of exploring gifts, identity, and creativity and how this labeling was a curse as much as a gift.

    May We All Be Free

    A short 5 minute pause meditation followed by a longer (30 minute) inner journey. We explore the relationship between the body sensations, emotional mind states, and the reality we live in. Our inner teacher guides us on how to relate with compassion and kindness to ourselves, and by extension, other beings. May we all be free.

    What is Home

    In conversation with Hong Gwi-Seok, a friend I met through the Iyengar community who recently moved to the Hawaiian Islands. We are both Scorpio suns and so are able to drop quickly into deep subjects. And, we both have an interest in individual spiritual practice as a vessel for societal and cultural change. We talk about what home is for people whose ancestors left their indigenous home. We may have come to the conclusion that home is where our ferments are? Perhaps those microbes are the best decolonization tool we have. You can find Gwi-Seok on her blog at stillinsirsasana.blogspot.com. Mentioned in the episode, "For the Next Seven Gernerations: The Grandmothers Speak". Image is from Thich Nhat Hanh.

    Realm of Patient Endurance

    Samsara is merely a thought, and when you are free from that thought, then this is liberation -Nagarjuna. "Such a six fold classification of realms applies in this world system of Patient Endurance (Sahalokadhatu) the thirteenth among the series of 25 world systems which are situated one above the other upon the heart of a lotus on the palms of Vairocana the Great Glacial Lake of Pristine Cognition, at the centre of his Buddha fields, which are as infinite in extent as atomic particles. The sentient beings of this field endure desire, hatred, delusion and fetters of conflicting emotions. The sanskrit word saha conveys a sense of endurance or capability." The Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism, Dudjom Rinpoche

    Why are we othering?

    Are we the automatons of Hobbes worldview, separate beings competing for finite resources? Or, are we infinite, powerful, creative, beings in a shared, connected field or dream. What happens when we create an external "other" and fixate on it as being evil? On the other hand, are we colluding with the shadow when we don't act and stay silent? This is the edge I currently riding. What I'm currently reading: Wetiko:Healing the Mind Virus that Plagues our World by Paul Levy www.awakeninthedream.com. Also mentioned, The Bhagavad Gita.

    Listen to Inner Authority

    There is no saviour outside of your own mind. You are the author of your reality. The world of phenomenal experience is the guru of signs and symbols. Listen deeply. Your actions affect the lives of all our descendents. Inspired by a conversation between Charles Eisenstein and CJ. Hopkins on A New and Ancient Story podcast. And, something I have been contemplating for most of my life. I don't have answers, I only have questions and suggestions for you. How do we discern truth? It has only ever been an inside job. Photo is of a child in Israel wearing a VR headset while being given a mnra injection.
