Our psychological and spiritual freedom – manifesting as inner peace – exists beyond the barriers of our beliefs, opinions, judgements and knowledge.   If we see the world as a mess, are we being pessimistic, negative or realistic? If we see it’s all okay, are we being optimistic,… Read More

Is there a more important question to ask or to be asked than one, starting with “What if …?” What if the most profound discovery we can make in our lifetime is recognising and experiencing our innate state of Possibility? What if, with that discovery,… Read More

Being right and making others wrong is a zero-sum game with 100% predictable outcomes – everyone loses. This piece is ugly, confronting and might be disturbing. If you are willing to read it, it may challenge you to your core. Writing this was challenging. And I… Read More

As you change, the world changes with you. Continue reading if you want to create a world where those four precious qualities prevail in your reality – your life, family, community and country. But first, read what those four powerful words mean. Or skip the… Read More

Our psychological, philosophical and spiritual freedom lies within. Some, intrigued by what is being pointed to in these messages, ask: ‘That’s all well and good, but how do I access The Realm of Possibility? Give me some instructions for how I can do that.’ The following is… Read More

The answer to what ails the world exists within you and me – within each and every one of us.
‘This reads like an academic paper’ – was the feedback. ‘It lacks a compelling story that readers can relate to, be moved by.’

I responded, ‘Libraries and bookstores are full of beautiful stories, inspiring stories.’ Then added, ‘Have these stories written throughout human history moved us to be kinder, more understanding, using wisdom and common sense?’

This essay does lack a beautiful story. But it diagnoses what ails humanity and unerringly points to where the cure exists. A cure that is already within you, me, and every human being.

SOME OUTCOMES OF WHAT AILS THE WORLD?

As you read this, thirty blood and guts-soaked wars are occurring worldwide*.

Ukraine and Gaza are only the two most prominent, vile, insane and inhumane examples.

You will agree that humanity has advanced scientifically and technologically beyond belief.

And yet we remain psychologically, philosophically, spiritual cave dwellers beyond comprehension.

The proof is evident worldwide: The homeless, starving, malnourished, and the flood, fire and drought ravished.

We (you and I) must address these inhumane conditions quickly, carefully and sustainably. All the natural resources and accumulated wealth to do so exist.

To the answer …

CREATING PEACE, NOT WAR – LOVE, NOT HATE – SUCCESS, NOT FAILURE

All of us are familiar with ‘thinking’.

We do it all the time. For most, unthinkingly.

Too few are, at this time in our evolution, intimately familiar with ‘Thought’ (with a capital T to differentiate it from its form - our moment-to-moment thinking).

Thought is the energy source of all human thinking, feelings, and actions.

A self-realised understanding of Thought holds the answers humanity seeks.

With such insight, we become part of the solution rather than being part of the problem.

DEFINING THE ANSWER

Our understanding of Thought and the power in its manifestations – our moment-to-moment thinking, feelings, and behaviour – answers why war or peace, love or hate, success or failure and every aspect of human behaviour that we classify as good, bad, or indifferent exists.

This piece provides the answers to the following questions and, more importantly, points to our innate Realm of Possibility, where those answers become our personally discovered reality:

1) What is Thought?

2) Where does it exist?

3) How does Thought manifest in our mind as our thinking and as a uniquely personal and separate reality?

4) Where do you, I and every human being walking the planet – directly experience the essence of Thought?

5) What are the benefits to us individually and humanity as a whole in you and I having a direct experience of and, therefore, coming to understand Thought?

6) As a first step towards the yet-to-be-seen, are there benefits in understanding Thought intellectually (as offered in this essay)?

The Realm of Possibility – The Realm of Peace A short conversation between John and Paul follows. It points in the direction of seeing Possibility and our inner peace. John: ‘Simple to talk about, Paul, but illusive to experience is our innate state of Possibility and our natural… Read More

Whenever we want our life to be other than how it is for us right now – in each moving moment – we have a problem. It’s that simple! Read More

What would we discover if we were to look into the minds of the antagonists on either side of the horrors in Ukraine or Gaza? We’d discover the world they have grown up in and conditioned by—the welded-on beliefs, opinions, judgements and knowledge of the prior victors and vanquished. Read More

We discover peace in transcending all belief, opinion, judgment, and knowledge – including this – if taken as ‘the truth’. We experience reality via the gift of Thought, either through the veil of our conditioned thinking – our accumulation of beliefs, opinions, judgements and knowledge – our state… Read More
