The Gift of True Knowledge There is a kind of knowledge that cannot be purchased or consumed. It can only be received and only when we arrive with a certain quality of openness. Karmic healing and true knowledge are aspects of spiritual truth. Everything else, however useful and well-intentioned, exists only at the level of the physical world. The deep tendencies, the karmas and samskaras, will continue. After all the therapy and all the practices and tools, the deeply ingra

Can You Sense The Universal Consciousness? I want you to take a moment and close your eyes (after reading this part), imagine what it feels like for the tree to take in cardon dioxide as its life sustaining force, releasing oxygen into the atmosphere. Can you feel being a bull frog, making the deep croaking sound from your throat, feeling the way that would protrude outward?

Yoga, Mindfulness, Psychedelics, Transcendental Meditation and many other alternative modalities have entered the scene in a way that hasn’t been seen since the sixties. Many of our clients are participating in practices aimed to change or raise consciousness. I am not suggesting we offer anything we are not specifically trained in, however, our client’s engagement in such practices create the need for a language and systematic understanding of these states of mind.

Our concept of intelligence (IQ) is severely limited, it essentially values logic above all else. Logic has its place and it’s use; it is the understanding of how the materials of the 3D world function. From a chakra perspective, logic is a third chakra mentation- way of using the mind.
