The questioner feels connected to her heart when she is being silent, but when she speaks she feels disconnected. How to speak from the heart? John explains how we are able to open our hearts in the midst of our life, regardless of the experience in our selves. We are able to not close even when there’s pain or discomfort. If we are okay with the cost of that, our selves will change, grow, develop, and purify.
In this dialogue John answers questions about his own awakening, what he saw at age 12, how it continued to unfold, and how we too can give form to what we really are. He explains knowing and awakening to something other than your self, what happens to us when awareness is distorted, and how to easily and naturally come out of that distortion into a true way of being.
“If before we are born we are in a place of absolute peace, and, if after we die we return to a place of absolute peace, what’s the point for us to just go through this life? Wouldn’t it be easier just to kind of skip over this part?” Listen to this golden oldie for an introduction to the meaning of life.
Parents face many challenging and stressful situations with their children every day, where practical needs seem to conflict with the ability to stay relaxed and kind.

Something this questioner sees in a TV nature program overturns all of his ideas of good and bad, right and wrong, taking him behind the facade created by his core beliefs. In this dialogue, John travels with him through the creation and power of these false structures, the shocking effects of unveiling their illusory reality, and shows him how to build what is real through an unconditional return to the heart.

Children and young adults ask about family, life, love and spiritual awakening/spirituality.
Is there a destiny and a purpose that we are to fulfill in this life? And if there is, how do we find it? The answer isn’t in what we think and can’t be found in what is familiar to us. We are able to deeply realize our life’s purpose by fully returning to and abiding in our heart and being. Listen to this podcast to find out how!
The real power of human sexuality is very different from how the world relates to it. When our sexuality is connected through the heart directly to our being, it can be the fire that burns up everything that isn’t real in our selves, transmuting our selves into a true expression of our being – what we really are.
“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.”
