Conscious Manifestations

A new lecture called Ego-Personality and Letting Go was published today on Heart of the Initiate.

This lecture was actually recorded live today at one of the Ayahuasca workshop in Bahia, Brazil! Pretty darn cool.

Here is a snippet:

"We are all here in a desire to explore a shamanic path, an experience with shamanism. By shamanism, specifically in a shamanic ceremony, we will be ingesting a shamanic plant medicine that has been used for thousands of years in indigenous cultures to bring us to a place of consciousness beyond what our normal daily awake experience is.

The recommendations that many of you have read about or heard about have to do with this concept of "letting go" as you enter into this shamanic ceremony. In many ways, the shamanic path has to do with letting go, it's a relaxing to a potential within yourself that you are not accustomed to, that you have not experienced in your day to day life."

We just put up two new lectures on the Heart of the Initiate website given live last week at the Brazil Ayahuasca Workshops!

The first lecture by Shaman Warinei Wanare is from March 14th, 2007, and is called The Four Sicknesses of Humanity.

The second lecture by Ralph Miller is from March 16th, 2007, and is called Plant-Human Intervention.

Please have a look at these two new lectures fresh and live from our Brazil Ayahuasca Workshops.

I just launched another web project for Heart of the Initiate, the folks who do the ayahuasca healing retreats in Brazil.

This site consists mostly of web feeds about ayahuasca aggregated into Drupal using the aggregator2 modules.

Here is a screenshot:

Other modules used include:

• tagadelic
• sitemenu
• pathauto
• poormanscron
• captsch
• textimage

The theme is a basic theme based off of the foliage theme.

The site was built with Drupal 4.7.4.

Well, at long last Stuie has release his Redeemer's Club website. Though you cannot sign up yet, the site says that it will be opening late fall 2006.

Head on over and read about it.

Here is an excerpt from the front page:

"This site offers information and streaming videos and updates from Stuart Wilde, but mainly it's a social club for scallywags of a metaphysical bent, who like to lurk about in nice places, visiting with exotic people.

It's a trip up the Amazon or a day at the races. It's the craps tables at the MGM Grand or a journey to visit an eccentric fellow in a Celtic forest, whose fingers move at an extraordinary speed. It's dinner at the Ritz and it's egg sandwiches at 4am at the greasy spoon café just off the M4.

It's lurking... entertainment and redemption, transformation Stuie-style."

Ciao for now.

On March 15th, Stuart Wilde wrote a new article regarding the death of Princess Diana.

Toward the end of the article, he writes something rather interesting and personally-revealing:

"My thinking has changed dramatically. I see that our collective karma will take us to wherever we are going, and the only way to exit the karma of conflicts and power struggles is to be humble and express love for everyone all the way. I breathe love into people's hearts as I pass them in the street. I also breathe love for a few minutes to the world in general at the beginning of my daily meditation. Whether these are the actions of a hyper-ventilating fool naively hoping for the best or sensible actions that really work I can't say. But if you exude a bit of love each day for a few continuous weeks, your etheric gradually changes. You exit the combative, hard world of dogma to a softer, more accepting place. It seems like a good idea."

Give the entire article a read!

Also have a look my Stuart Wilde book recommendations!

I am a big fan of Stuart Wilde. I get a lot of hits on this website from people interested in his works. I am even thinking of doing a fan site for the fun of it. But that is to come.

You can see all the postings having to do with Stuie on my site here.

Below you will find links to some of my favorite books by Stuart Wilde. Courage to you!

If you can't see the suggested books, click here.

This article from Peace and Justice dot org is a sort of summary of some of the top points of Kurt Vonnegut's speech to Ohio State University.

It seems that this speech was the last paid speech Kurt will do.

I had the pleasure of meeting Stuart Wilde at an ayahuasca workshop last November. My encounter with him left me feeling empowered - mostly, because I saw that the truth I need to find is inside of me, not inside of someone else.

Through the last decade, Stuart has guided my spiritual life to a great degree. I have looked to his works for answers, truth and hope. I have not been let down.

So when Stuart adds new postings to his website, I get excited! Not just because of the free information (something I am obviously fond of) he provides through that medium, but because it usually contains a nice treat for my "spiritual" life.

Indeed, since January of 2006, he has been pretty active:

The Diana Story Update
Mysterious Orbs
Tales Bounced off the Lonely Road
Free Thinking Helps
The Journey Beyond Enlightenment

Below is an excerpt from this last article:

"The ego creates for itself an ivory tower of self-importance that is sustained by the biophontons in the individual's etheric, and from that place we often expect something or someone to come and raise us up even further. People wait to be discovered or they hope that a great being will appear to raise them up the spiritual ladder towards heaven. It is natural for the ego to seek spiritual importance — it wants to be the chosen one, the specially selected radiant being that is here to redeem the rest of us mere mortals. All of this is very nice but a bit daft." Continue to the article on StuartWilde.com.

Happy reading!

Here is part 8 of the Redemption Songs. It is pretty deep, so be ready.

Incarnations & Cataclysms: Redemption Songs Part Eight

For the rest of these, look a little further down the page.

I randomly came across this page on the Noble Realms website - I am somewhat familiar with Drunvalo Melchizedek and his work, and the info on this page made me think.

Hmmmmmm...

Here are the latest two from Stuie's website:

The Invisible University (Redemption Songs Part Six)
The Inner Scallywag (Redemption Songs Part Seven)

This makes a total of seven parts thus far to the Redeemer's Club Redemption Songs series. Up to now, here they all are, nice and neat for you:

The Trick of Free Will (Redemption Songs Part One)
The Getting of Wisdom (Redemption Songs Part Two)
The Electricity of the Ivory Tower (Redemption Songs Part Three)
The Jeweled Cog (Redemption Songs Part Four)
Groundhog Day of Disappointing People (Redemption Songs Part Five)
The Invisible University (Redemption Songs Part Six)
The Inner Scallywag (Redemption Songs Part Seven)

Stuart Wilde has finally released a couple of new postings on his site in the New from Stuart Wilde area: The Jeweled Cog (Redemption Songs Part Four) and Groundhog Day of Disappointing People (Redemption Songs Part Five). These are the latest in a series of Redemption Songs from the Redeemer's Club, all of which I find terribly interesting.

For the heck of it, here is the complete list for your clicking access:

The Trick of Free Will (Redemption Songs Part One)
The Getting of Wisdom (Redemption Songs Part Two)
The Electricity of the Ivory Tower (Redemption Songs Part Three)
The Jeweled Cog (Redemption Songs Part Four)
Groundhog Day of Disappointing People (Redemption Songs Part Five)

This comes at a time when I am planning on creating a Stuart Wilde fan site at a domain I recently acquired: stuartwilde.info - this is in the works and I hope to have it up and running before I meet Stuie in Brazil in November.

The way I see it, his current site is good and gets the info out there, but provides no way for fans to interact, share their thoughts and feelings on what he writes and how it affects their lives, to get in touch with each other and work to move out of the sphere together. I would like to provide the online tools for this to be possible, bringing together seekers and fringe dwellers from all over the world.

In addition, with proper permission I will be translating some of his work into Spanish, French and Portuguese (to begin - later German, Italian and Mandarin) in order to make the content released on his website available to a wider audience.

This is all to come - for now just keep on reading up on his latest!

Two of Stuie's latest are quite intriguing. He never ceases to motivate me in some inner part of my nostalgia for eternity.

The latest from him are entitled Technology of the Dark and The Golden Thread. Both are stimulating and informative.

Enjoy and take note that he will be participating at the Heart of the Initiate sessions in Brazil from the end of August through beginning of October. This might be one of the last chances to see Stuie in public like this. And it's a great way to try out the wonders of ayahuasca.
