Ineffective Spirituality

Everything in life has a part and a role to play and a significance and an importance.

Unfortunately, sometimes people overestimate the importance of stuff like consciousness raising or consciousness alteration. In so doing, they can fail to see the consequences of how work on that kind of stuff, without understanding the necessity to be right at other levels, will actually make for more dysfunctional people and more dysfunctional lives. And then people end up blaming the fact that they are not functional on this earthly level, in normal life, on other people not being as spiritual as them, rather than seeing that the problem results from their being so over-focused on the spiritual that nobody can relate to them and they cannot relate to anyone else. Their spirituality has no effective importance and is probably more in their imagination than anywhere because they cannot direct it into a manifestation in any real way.

Using this Site

Engage and Explore. To get a taste of variety of the scope and breadth of what we do and the teachings we offer, look under the Teachings menu. Our collections of articles and quotes offer a little bit of everything, ranging from hearty to heady, soothing to stingers, clarifying to perhaps confusing at first, brief to lengthy. If you want to get involved in some way look under the Take Part menu. This section is all about things you can do. You can take a class, volunteer, learn about internships, make a donation, and so on. If you want to learn more about who we are and our learning centers, look under Meet Us. If you are enrolled in an online course, you can access it through the My Courses menu at the far top right.

Surrender

Surrender is the most difficult thing in the world while you are doing it
And the easiest thing in the world when it is done

 

Contact Us

You can email us at [email protected]. Please understand that we are a modest endeavor staffed entirely by busy volunteers and largely funded by donations. Additionally, we live in a remote location with limited bandwidth. (Really, in this day and age, there still is such a thing as limited bandwidth where streaming data is a bad idea.) This means it may take us a while to respond to your query, but we will get back to you.   logo-nicer-2014-2.png
