The Great Mystery of Life and Conscioysness… clokes herself in the mantel of nature…

Toppling The Dominant Paradigm…
Every Concept of God That We Entertain Is A Hallucination


We have been brainwashed for thousands of years to buy into monotheism…a world view based on a deist paradigm. Deism pictures god in a heaven… outside of creation.

The Abrahamic religions… are the religions of warlords. The biblical Jehovah of monotheism is a jealous and angry god. The bible demands pillage, rape and plunder as a religious duty. The Old Testament commands its followers conquer, murder and enslave pagans who believe…. That Nature, Life, the Earth herself, is Sacred. Who worship a goddess who is our Mother Earth..

Pagans, traditionally kiss the sacred earth, each morning in reverence. While most of us are confused by abstract concepts of the divine or anthropomorphic images which seek to personify divinity. Traditional people may have been immersed in a way of life in which they experienced all of life as sacred. Where nature herself was a Goddess. Where every relationship was an experience of the divine.

Monotheism is the world view of predatory patriarchal societies which conquered the peaceful earth-worshiping neolithic people of Old Europe. (See the work of Marija Gimbutas, who’s Kurgan invasion hypotheses is now supported by cutting edge DNA research. Gimbutus argues that for tens of thousand years Earth worshipping people lived in peace in equalitarian villages in old Europe.)

It is the Diest paradigm, that allows predatory capitalism to rape and plunder our Mother Earth.

For thousands of years of inquisitions and witch burning, the obvious reality that all life is sacred has been banished from conventional wisdom. Scientific convention, the brain-child of the medieval church, is blinded by the same materialistic biblical paradigm. Individual who question convention are labeled and prosecuted as “eco-terrorists”

If we lived in a world where Mother Nature was recognized as a Goddess, where all Life was recognized as sacred…where the life of our Mother Earth was revered and cared for as our own life…. we would not be racing toward an ecological armageddon.

Pan is calling…

Revelation is a classic quality of the divine.

Naive phenomenology is an epistemology (criteria for knowing) which validates our individual subjective experience.

Revelation is a classic quality of the divine. Our Sacred Life reveals itself in the experience of peace that we experience in Nature, in the Garden, in Loving. Our Sacred Life reveals itself in the ecstasy of good health, freedom to dance and the joy of creativity and learning. Our Sacred life reveals itself in Seva… kindness, generosity, service and sharing.

WAKE UP! Pan is Calling You….
There is an inherent experience of the sacred in Life. In Health, in Service, In Growth… Drop the brainwashing my fellow zombies… every concept of God that you entertain is a hallucination …

The Divine is revealing herself in every joyous breath, every sparkling smile, every revelatory moment! All Life is Sacred, Your Life is Sacred…

Everything you have been seeking you already are!

I Am That…An Affirmation of Universal Life

There is a Self-Organizing Intelligence which is at the heart of everything in Creation… You can call this omnipresent Intelligence God… or The Great Mystery… I call her Life. She is an omnipresent Goddess.

Sages call this Ubiquitous Intelligence… The Self. While everything else is changing… this Consciousness… is an unchanging Presence. It is this Presence, Cognizance, Awareness, Lucidity of the Self that illuminates all experience.

Life and Consciousness are inextricably bound… to be alive is to be conscious… to be conscious is to be alive. It is exactly the same Life… exactly same Presence, exactly the same self organizing intelligence… the definitive quality of all living things… that is in every sentient being.

Affirmation of the Universal Life
I am that without boundaries, limitations or separation.
I am a universal life of indescribable energy and unlimited consciousness.
The stars and the planets are the cells of my body.
I am filled with indescribable energy and unlimited consciousness.
I am willing energy from that that I am . . .
Maha Vishnu . . . The Great Spirit
Narayana . . . The Soul of The Universe
Maha Saraswati . . . Goddess of wisdom. (Saraswati means essence of Self)
To manifest radiant health, perfect health, divine health.
To manifest deep inner peace, equanimity, serenity.
To manifest, Self realization, illumination, liberation.
May peace and justice prevail on Earth.


1. “Marija [Gimbutas]’s Kurgan hypothesis has been magnificently vindicated.”

Since Merlin Stone’s revolutionary study, When God Was A Women, we have come to understand that for thousands of years of prehistory the worship of Nature and the Great Mother Goddess prevailed in Europe. matrifocal, agrarian peace loving society invaded by a patrilineal militaristic

Current DNA evidence demands our prehistory be rewritten! Marija Gimbutas’s thesis that a Europe was a land of relative peaceful place…homes and villages we’re built without fortification or sited for beauty rather than defensiblity…. for thousands of years before an invasion from the steppes north of the Black Sea by invaders she called “Kurgans.”

Gimbutas spoke of these as “big man” graves, arguing that they marked the appearance of a new cultural group into Europe — one that was patriarchal, patrilineal, and warlike. Before their arrival, the people Gimbutas called “Old Europeans” buried their dead in communal graves, with grave offerings indicating no great difference in wealth or status and no domination of one sex over the other. Gimbutas argued that the “Kurgan” people introduced Indo-European languages into the lands they conquered, as well as new cultural systems based on domination of warriors and kings over the general populace and the domination of men over women. She stated that the Kurgan invasions of Europe began about 4400 BCE and lasted for several millennia.

Reading the old testament reminds us that monotheism is the religion of warlords. Jehovah is an angry and jealous god. Constantly calling for the total destruction of other gods.

“ Textually, the Old Testament becomes the first handbook of holy war, i.e., the first time such an ideology was written down, as the rules of the game — as the game itself — for a whole people. Both Christianity and Islam recognize the Old Testament as a sacred text. The historic fanaticism of both religions derives its holy war fervor and rationale from the words of the biblical prophets, presented as “the Word of God.” These words incite and justify religious war as the will of God. Yahweh is called the jealous God. What was Yahweh jealous of? Of the Goddess, and her lover, of their sacred-sexual relation itself, and of its domination over the minds and hearts and bodies of generations of Neo-lithic people. This is why the God and religion of the Bible are identified so clearly from all other preceding gods and religions: The Bible God and his religion are based on a violently asexual, or ant-isexual morality never before seen on earth. Sex — the source of life and pleasure of love — becomes the enemy of God.” 1
