“Your time for this is only for as long as the time of your body. When your body dies, that time is over. Your time, and all of its levels within all the levels of your body, does belong to the all of you. Time doesn’t enable it. Awareness enables it.”

“It’s like letting in the most powerful truth virus.” John explains what he means when he speaks of the calling, and what matters most in responding to its subtle, electromagnetic draw.
John chooses the image of building a stairway within to illustrate how we can move in the activities of life and remain connected to the deep we know. What matters most is honesty, and he explains why.
What does John mean when he refers to consciousness as “liquid intimacy?” This conversation takes us deep inside the traps and opportunities for consciousness to realize itself in the context of form, the only place it can happen.
In this busy world of computers, phones and increasing technology, how can we listen to the heart and stay committed to inner truth? John shares a tiny shift in relating that makes it easy in the midst of any kind of pressure.
This conversation is a simple introduction to the basics of John’s teaching, including a question for John about his own journey. In it, he describes how he returned to what he knew without any understanding: in his own words, “not even a clue.”
Responding to a question about how consciousness and unconsciousness become one, John describes how realization, or its lack, forms the basis of our reality. A reality governed by experience or by what truly nurtures and satisfies us.
“My sole purpose is to be, in life, what we are after we’ve died. Through openness and softness of heart and core-splitting honesty at any personal cost, I live as that while actualizing the same in others I meet. I am available as a resource for anyone who recognizes and values this way of being.”
