Philosophy
My basic philosophy is to do good, and be caring.
When a heart connects with another heart, it connects to all hearts.
Guidance
True guidance is found in your heart and takes courage to listen to and even more to follow.
"Believe nothing merely because you have been told it. Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for the teacher. But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings — that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide." ~Buddha
Path
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: love your neighbor as yourself. All the laws and prophets hang on these two commandments.” Jesus
“Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also”. - Jesus
“Blessed are the pure in Heart for they shall see God.” - teachings of Jesus
And Jesus said, "Whoever discovers the interpretation of these sayings will not taste death." #1 Gospel of Thomas
Interests
Most of my intellectual interests are outlined on this web site. They all fall under the broad beautiful topic of Human Potentiality.
I love the sciences of the great mystical traditions of our planet, The Shroud of Turin, its history and message - I follow developments in brain and heart research, nano technology, biology, genomics and the physics of our natural world. Yet it appears all to boil down to the science of consciousness. In my world all these topic merge then distill into the science of ascension which is Rainbow Body - Light Body attainment in the Dzogchen, Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
Dzogchen is: (1) a level or station of realization, (2) our natural true state, (3) a teaching, (4) a path to this level of realization.
Nothing is more paranormal then the physical body dissolving into a flash of light or having the body not decay after death, even when in the ground for hundreds of years!
How we dream into reality new creation or spontaneous heal from cancer fascinates me to no end - and directly or indirectly has directed my path and choices forming my life.
I've written that I do not see myself as a Christian or support of any one religion or practice with my work. But personally, after all these many years of practice, research, self inquiry and reflection, I've evolved to see much value in the core teachings of Christianity.
If one has eyes to see it, the Shroud's very existence validates the teachings and message of Jesus and the Buddha.
The keys are all in the one quote in Matthew:
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: love your neighbor as yourself. All the laws and prophets hang on these two commandments.” Jesus
Keys to comprehension are: (1) the word your, (2) the order: heart, soul and mind, (3) and love your neighbor as yourself.
This done from an authentic place emotionally is compassion.
Love God and all his creation with all your heart, soul and mind (this attunes and coheres) and you will find your treasure (silent still portal at the heart of the heart) and if successful in realization, will not taste death (ascend/attain rainbow body/lightbody).
The light of the Absolute illuminates, Truth is revealed; veils lifted; remembrance occurs; grasping and attachments diminish; and the self is known.
Held in the heart, this yearning flames open awareness to Divine Presence and the Kingdom of Light.
It is a surrender to love and selflessness that grants one the keys, never lost, always held, For as John 14:12 states; Jesus said: "Truly, I tell all of you with certainty, the one who has faith in me will also do what I am doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father."
For me personally this is the message revealed within this Silent Gospel - The Shroud of Turin.
Coming to these understandings the way I did caused me to "dedicated myself to the power and beauty of the compassionate heart".
The great Sufi adept Manur Al Hallaj was executed March 26, 922 for claiming; “he was one with God”
One of his quotes is:
“I have seen my Lord with the eye of my heart,
and I said: "Who are You?"
He said: "You."
Another of his quotes is:
"Love is the seed of the heart.
The seed of the heart is its pith,
and the pith is the place of the subtlety.
The subtlety is the place of Allah,
and the place of Allah is the complete freedom with Him."
Human potentiality researcher, author, inventor, natural scientist and lecturer with a special focus on Heart Intelligence, Biometrics, Biofeedback, The Shroud of Turin and Holophasec Physics.
Topic of interests are:
1. The Shroud of Turin, science, politics, and history.
2. The correlations between the Catholic Doctrine of Ascension with the Buddhist Rainbow Body-Body of Light attainment.
3. Incorruptibility of the body after death.
4. Holophasec Integral Physics (Wave Matrix Mechanics also viewed as Vortex Mechanics or Vacuum Physics)
5. Biometrics
6. Genomic development
7. Science of self-organization
8. Archeological discoveries especially those related to ancient cultures and the development of non dual philosophies, practices and the evolution of our concepts of One God.
These areas of interest have lead me to continue to refine a psycho-physical model - a biological blueprint for Light Body Attainment.
It all begins with the heart and authentic loving - kindness.
