What is the relationship between innocence and compassion?
What is the root of compassion?
– The root of compassion is in you being in your heart.
– When you are in your heart you will feel towards others
– When you are in your heart you naturally love; that is your real movement.
– When you take your self and how you experience your personality to heart, you will become polarized and relate to others in a polarized way
– If someone mistreats you and you stay in your heart, you’ll realize they don’t need to change how they treat you, for you to feel for that one
– When you are in your innocence, it is because you are being in your heart
– For you to be in your innocence, be in your heart at any personal expense
– You are able to meet and commune. No one needs to treat you well for you to be in that availability
– The more open you are, the more that you’re able to see and read what is actually there in another.
This questioner asks John about going home within, to what we really are. Together, they travel through the levels of personality, the self, the nervous system, the mind, all the way to our real purpose of being here. It’s a lively dialogue, full of real answers.
• The purpose of being in a body
• Becoming a pure being, living the real in everyday life
• You as awareness: like a newborn baby
• A core okayness with what is outside your control
• As a being, you are not vulnerable to anything
• Your being is safe, and you are safe in your being
• The purpose of the universe
• Intimate connectivity of meaning and essence
• When you are in your heart, you cannot help but give
• Real relationship: a partnership in givenness

Two participants speak with John for the first time, each wanting his help to move deeper, within. How can we flow in the world as what we really are without creating more self, or becoming caught in the mind? There is only one way, an absolute, universal truth, and it is natural to you.
Are there parallel worlds, and how can we be taken into them? Deeper than the being are levels of pre-existence to be subsumed by, speeding up the soul’s evolution and freeing the controlling mind to be like the breath of love.
How to bring the flow of inner awakening into everyday life? John explains how to live as a flow of being, free of the “fortress of illusion” created by subconscious beliefs and self-interest. Returning to what you really are, you are free to flow in any circumstance. This flow of you is love.
After several years of responding to deep inner change, letting go of most of her life as she’d known it, including her drive to achieve, this young woman is wondering whether it’s time to re-engage in her worldly life – and what her purpose really is. (Note: There is slight sound interference throughout this recording).
Why is it so easy to forget to be the deepest that we really know, and carry on in the midst of life as we did before? And relating with others from new openness can mean feeling exposed, disconnected and out of control. Two questioners bring to John their difficulties with living their awakening.
“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.”
