Sir Arthur Eddington, the British physicist, said, “The stuff of the world is mind-stuff.”
The Yoga Vasistha of the ancient Vedic literature states, “Even as from the waking state there is no materiality in the objects seen in a dream, this world appears to be material, yet in reality it is pure consciousness.”
We are not in the world, the world is within us, and the Simplest State of human awareness is that state where consciousness is open to itself.
The development of higher states of consciousness is a theme of all cultures throughout time. Each in their own way, our guests have searched for something more, and we learn from them how their search for higher states of consciousness has impacted them as they describe the pursuit, development, and expression of consciousness and creativity in their lives.
Unique guests, fascinating stories, wonderful revelations, and spiritual epiphanies, all brought to light in an entertaining and informative fashion on Simplest State.
The book has been very well-received, and deservedly so! Dr. Pearson was a wonderful guest and I really enjoyed speaking to him. Thank you for taking time to listen, and I hope you'll continue to enjoy the podcast as more episodes are published.
Legendary. Please have more Gurus from KS like Mark Dyczkowski, Bettina Sharad Baumer, Paul Ortega-Muller, Sthaneshwar Timalsina, Christopher Wallis, Christopher Tompkins, Swami Shankarananda, Gabriel Pradiipaka... Namaste, peace and blessings!
From a tough childhood, to the haze of the psychedelia, to the clarity of spending almost two decades in the presence of a Enlightened Master, to a taste of hell and heaven during a short stint in the 'Cosmic Body Shop'; John gives the listener an intimate glimpse into his unique life, and the 'transformation of consciousness' that ran like a thread through the beads of his day-to-day experiences. This short but intimate exchange will help many sincere seekers remain steadfast through life's many trials and tribulations, in their ongoing search for a greater truth and an awareness of the dignity of human life. Though our paths have crossed ever so briefly, I feel proud to call John a dear friend. Looking forward to reading the book. God bless...
Well said, George, and thank you taking time to listen and share your comments. John's story is a compelling one, and the fact that he was able to share it with us, with such openness and vulnerability, made it all the more captivating.
