The Theosophical Society was founded by the initiating impulse from Masters of Wisdom from the Trans-Himalayan Arhat School with Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (HPB) as their representative on the physical plane. HPB was trained directly by the Elder Brothers, the Masters in Tibet, precisely for the task of bringing the esoteric tradition to the West.  HPB was the conduit for the shakti (energy) and knowledge of the Masters.  HPB was an advanced initiate (3^rd Initiation) not a Master…

“I just feel so irritable today, I don’t know why.  Guess I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed.”  Ever said that?  Ever said, “I don’t know why I’m crying!”  Ever cried when you were mad, when all you wanted to do was cuss someone out?  We’ve been taught for so many centuries that our feelings, our emotions were just unnecessary but troublesome appendages.  Our job then, was just to pretend them away for so long that when they made themselves evident, we would not recognize them or…

Out of balance?

Recently, I interviewed entrepreneur and author, Nir Eyal for my Ruthless Compassion podcast. He talked about how technology is an absolute necessity but that like anything else we find helpful and enjoyable, we can find ourselves out of balance when using it.

We don’t even…

There is no such thing as a good person or a bad person. Choices and actions are leading us in different directions, and it is through those choices and actions that we create our realities. Sometimes we choose or do something that takes us in the opposite direction of the reality we want to create for ourselves. When we do this, we…

Our world is in crisis and fears are mounting. These well-founded fears can bring adversity to the like-minded souls. How do we curb our anxious minds and hearts and keep peace. Understand, evolution is a slow process and the only people we can change is ourselves. Accept all people are on their unique soul journey. Employing love and compassion, we can imagine a better world for all.

Our planet and humanity are at a point of crisis. There is no denying it. Even those who care deeply…

An honest and mature approach to our relationship is a sign that we are ready to experience the energy of Love.

When we are born, we are filled with the energy of Love, and we expect to be loved. We assume that the world is full of Love, and we are in shock when we experience coldness, indifference or pain. To a little child, Love is a necessity equal…

Summary: Ego exists.  To pretend it doesn’t or create shame around it diminishes our acknowledgement of the human condition.   It is the function of the ego to perceive, decide and shift thoughts & subsequent emotions while integrating and balancing them with intention.

Do you think the ego is a bad thing?  We hear references like “She’s so egotistical.”, as if an ego is always a negative energy.  Each person has…

 Criticism can rob us of zest for life and send our spirit into a dark corner.

While people with the fear of being judged know that it is irrational, they still can't help perpetuating their anxious thoughts and feelings.

More than 75% of people around the world experience the…

 Astrology can take us into the genius of each person, who they really are, why they came here, and what is their heroic mission, the "story" they are living out, each moment.

It also can prepare us for the initiations that Life is offering to us:

How to find, and be, the delight and magic (Venus), 

How to be bold and make things happen (Mars)

How to REALLY express ourselves, so life feels like our heart's creation (Sun),

How to organize a…

Mass hysteria goes viral:

The hysteria we’ve been feeling lately over the arrival in North America of the novel coronavirus reminds me of the fears that we had around the SARS crisis in Toronto in 2003 and the Ebola virus in 2014.

If you lived through either of these times you can probably recall how freaked out people were during these outbreaks. Many Canadians over-reacted to situations that turned out to be not nearly as bad as they’d thought.

With the latest…

Aloneness and loneliness are two different things.

We don’t have to feel lonely when we are alone.

We’ve been told through various stories, movies and literature that only the presence of another person in our life can help us to alleviate the void we…

From being dependent on our parents or guardian for everything to start to become the guards of our own life, we all grow. The golden period of this transition is spent in classrooms as a student. 

In today’s world, where everything has become constricted to materialistic success and competition, the classrooms are losing their charm and becoming an asylum where young minds with stress dwell for long hours…

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by all the things that need to get done? Do you lose sleep in the middle of the night thinking about what you forgot to do or worried about what is going to happen the next day? How are you going to squeeze it all in? Do you have a hard time NOT thinking while you are trying to meditate? Or actually not being able to find…

Have you ever said these words? I’m sitting in the power but, nothing is happening. I’m doing the exercises but, it doesn’t go the way it should. I practice all the time but I can’t see any progress. I think spirit blocked me or the sitter is blocking me. Is this you? 

Most mediums have these thoughts at some point along their journey or thoughts that are similar. It’s okay. We live in a world of…

Environmentalism 101

The best way to practice environmentalism is to strive to think of the physical world and other beings in synchronicity with yourself. This is the main tenet of most religions and spiritual ethics. Parents feel this as they help their children grow and learn to make decisions for themselves. It does not give away any power you have, in fact it will multiply your resolve and wisdom to help…

Once we are captivated with the bliss of the spiritual world, we soon grow disappointed when our lives don’t immediately change. Soul work is a process and has many phases from absorption phase, individualization phase and purge phase. We learn to document our experiences to record our progress and purpose. As we come to the end of this path, we realize all we must do is let go and receive all the miracles in our life.

It is easy to become enthralled with the…
