Several years ago I underwent a spiritual awakening that came out of nowhere. I was happily living my life as a frustratingly dogmatic atheist, entirely non-receptive to any sort of discussion on my worldview, when slowly started to hear the call of something else. Something larger and more real than anything I had experienced up to that point. From the first glimmers of awakening to a full change in my world view took several months; a significantly slower process than the thunderbolt described by others, but it was just as complete.
This blog is intended to serve a few different purposes — helping others understand their own path, illuminate the ways in which apparent contradictions between faith and science are vaporous, discussion of the founding documents of the traditions I work with — but primarily it is a way for me to understand my own journey. Where I have come from. Where I am. Where I am going.
I hope you will accompany me on this exploration and I trust we can learn from one another.
Before the flambeaux.
