“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.” Romans 12:2

In the instance
one is born,
perhaps even from
the moment of
seed germination,

to the pattern of this world,

one’s mind is being 

intricately woven.

So begins our prognosis,

see at the very beginning

the brain is in this theta state

Literally akin to hypnosis.

Neural connections begin forming,

shaped by parental vibes 

and cultural tribes.
The network is now moulding.

social behaviours and 

environmental stress

hard-wiring the pathways 

like the most technical plays

in a game of chess.

Exposed to continuous stimulation,

on the mind there’s constant impression,
this is the gradual formation

of one’s limited perception…

…so who knows what’s wrong
Who knows what’s right,

on goes the subconscious habituation,

the grooves embed so deep,

this  hard-wiring becomes so tight.

At the mercy of governing entities

mass media and

sticky app technology,

not really aware

that this is the slick creativity
behind the mass conformity

of what was once

your sovereign psyche. 

So perhaps now this is opposition
controlled perception,

and for knowing the essence 

of one’s true nature,

the most water-tight

Protection.

Trapped in a cage

in one’s own mental maze,

no wonder we walk around

under a clouded haze,

head in a daze,

eyes glazed with 

not much to say.

Look around,
you know the world is crying out

for renewal,

so to are we,

For a complete re-wiring of
the worldly individual.

Now I say,

it’s fasting from the world,

the sharp sword 

of meditation that cuts through

the illusion that is

the mind’s default delusion,

eventually enabling one

to dwell in the space

between thoughts,
And herein the power lies…
But to break old patterns
first we must
slow down…
and recognise.

Meditation turns on
the cool light of contemplation
And this inner-world exploration

prepares one for a more measured

outer-world application.

Contemplation leads to

one to question…

What has been impressed

upon me by

this world I see and know,

and what is genuinely 

my own?

Are the thoughts
I engage in 

one’s I am sourcing & selecting,

or simply the result of
a life-long conditioning?

…which leads to the cultivation

of this freedom of choice:

And my friend,
You do have a choice:

mindless repetition or….

soulful evolution.

But my love,

go easy during this
inner investigation,

on yourself be gentle

and non-judgmental

but do know that 

committed meditation

and objective contemplation

hold the potential for

your transformation,

…they are the proven
premium tools…

for mental-renewal.

Now, I’m certainly not saying 

simply buy my words or follow me,

but my friend, I do say

it’s only when

the mind is empty,

in a state of stillness and clarity,

does one finally see the plight of

The individual’s
And then the world’s collective conformity…

…only then and only then 

will you see

That living in the Heart is

the only place

where you’re truly free.

HEIGHTENED VIBRATION

Do you feel

our worldly vibration…
…it’s heavy, the density
like we’re weighed down
& chained to the solidity

of emotion & materiality.

Anchored by a

low vibration
on this his earth plane,

has become

the common habitation.

Ironically. it’s from this
Space that we’ve become
So obsessed with
Material manifestation.
for to bring forth and make visible
That which does not exist
Is the e-pit-o-me of creation

And so
Perhaps it’s limited

to only use one’s

effort and energy

for material manifestation,

when it’s possible
to use the power

of concentration

to raise one’s
personal Vibration.

My dear,

I say the soul
yearns elevation,
to rise above the worldly limitation,

For it is pure radiance,
buried but sparked by
sustained contemplation in meditation.

So perhaps focusing on

the manifestation of

the quality of
your being,

is far more
fruitful and

nourishing. 

These elevated frequencies

will not only attract

the material things

that resonate,

but more impactful

is the presence of

your very being now,
Because for all of us

It will illuminate. 

My friend,

you have power beyond measure,

yet so often you doubt

your your own experience,

you are literally

sitting on buried treasure.

You look out there

accumulating knowledge

scouring the books & resources,

all the while overlooking

that fact your lived experience

is where the wisest

force is.

The constant seeking and striving

externally for answers to help

you live a meaningful existence,

is to the growth and

cultivation of wisdom

perhaps the very resistance.

Cherish the direct evidence of your own unique life experience,

sit with it

reflect and contemplate,

and watch insight emerge

for you to begin

to applicate.

The information’s new and data rich,

it’s yearning to be put into practice

to test and iterate

and eventually into a new way of being,

Integrate.

What you learn may be harsh

as your darkness is brought to light,

don’t take it personally

this now is objective clarity,

And they say pain is the chisel

on the path

of self-discovery.

Know deeply,

You are your own guru

Nobody will ever be more expert on

your life than you.

So don’t waste the joy or
bypass the suffering

of your lived experience,

because it’s the most

direct evidence 

And most powerful demonstration
of the potential of your
personal transformation.

My friend, I swear our

nature is buoyancy

and high vibrancy…

Simply release this baggage

And attachment to a limited worldly identity

In order to effortlessly emit

this ever-present divinity.

My love,

allow your true essence

to shine,

Be transparency,

it really is that

of beauty, and

a bright light-hearted

love & spirituality 

“The one who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.” John 7:38

Bible lines and verses
to me, read like poetry
perhaps, really no explanation is needed
on water and the majesty of it’s vitality,
but sharing as these words
emerged see

Now, the Bible refers to the Holy spirit as water
throughout the book this term is dispersed.
By the Holy Water one is baptised and
if willing, in it becomes fully immersed

About 70% of the earth is covered
by rivers, lakes and oceans,
water grows the trees we breathe
and the food we consume.
About 60% of the body is water
About 80% of the brain is too.

So it’s vital for mental nourishment
and cellular replenishment.
Oxygenation of your
human operation.

Now, if we may say the lens
of our perception is murky,
tainted by attachment and identification
with worldly accumulation,
it’s the water of the Holy Spirit
that cleanses and polishes,
renewal and purification
of one’s perception.

Flow is a state in which people
become so involved in an activity
that nothing else seems to matter

The late father of flow
says one loses track of time,
action and awareness becomes merged,
no separation between doer and what is done

Between performer and performance,
no distinction between artist and art,
or between observer
and that which is observed.

This to me sounds like ego dissolution,
one is fully submerged,
in the moment,
and there is total immersion

Now what takes over,
you know
during this state of effortless ease
as one is in flow?

Action is being done, and
seemingly from a higher place
flows creativity
and quality productivity.

In this state
you’re not thinking about this
or worrying about that,
wondering about dinner
or whether you look smart,

you’re not replaying old regrets
or for that matter
dwelling on any other
fragmented part.

I say this
is the river of living water
flowing through you,
the water of the Holy Spirit. 

Perhaps this it means to
let go and let God.

There’s an immense intelligence
flowing through all existence…
You know this absolutely,
we just get in the way of it,
the attachment to personality
and illusory identity.

Like when the mind is
struggling & striving…
in constant mental contraction,
for the water of this river
this is like stagnation.

But when the mind is still and empty

the conditions are prime for
this water to flow
smoothly and freely.

Empty your personal vessel
and be full of the Holy water

Christ says:
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest.”

So drop the burden of the ego
and stop wading against the current.
Delve into the depths of the Holy Water,
Let Christs current of Love course thru you.

Let go.
My love, you will not drown,
for you shall become… 
the flow…

Love turns me into Nothing Special

If your heart is even just a little open, you may well have a special place for Ram Dass…if not, you don’t know what you’re missing. Ram Dass (or Richard Alpert) was one of the first teachers that truly resonated with me back in 2011…just beginning the inner journey. I devoured his words for hundreds of hours.

If familiar, You may have heard of his doc / book - ‘Becoming Nobody’ …he’d often say he was ‘nobody special’ and that the true spiritual path was just that…becoming nobody.

Opposite to our western culture, which is predicated on the notion that you should become somebody, something - standout from the rest, the individual identity…the ego is celebrated.

Apart from the separation and isolation from others,
Ram Dass explained how this was the barrier to experiencing the truth of who we are.

Here’s a short poem inspired by this idea of ‘Becoming Nobody’:

Being nobody,

and not striving 

to be somebody,

Love turns me

into everybody.


Being nothing,

and not struggling 

to be something,

Love turns me 

into everything.

Being a traveller

and not trying

to get anywhere,

Love turns my

Heart into a home.

Being simple,

and not pretending

to be clever,

Love transforms

my experiences

into wisdom.

Being humble

and not seeking

to know anything,

Love turns my

Heart into a scripture.

Being still

and not needing

to move,

Love turns my

actions into prayer.


Being silent

and not needing 

to be heard,

Love turns my

words into a poem.

And so be it.x
