So much of our behavior is motivated by trying to achieve our needs. Yet, it eventually gnaws at our soul. The healthy solution is to share our value. In this audio, I share the difference between using others and sharing our value in this world. This can make a great difference in our level of…
Perspective Mapper Log (Apr 13 2015 to May 10 2015)
Over the last month, I’ve gone through some of the most powerful meditation transformations in my ‘spiritual career’. That is no small claim — I’ve had many major transformations over the course of the last two years especially. However, this most recent wave has been massive. These transformations correlated with a full resurgence of fibromyalgia…

How do I Make a Choice?
More than ever before in the history of humanity have we had so much apparent choice. We seem to have choice in the relationships in our life, careers on our path, and food on our table. That said, with all these choices, how do we decide not simply what the best choice is, but what is the…
Perspective Map — Third Party Reconciliation Process
The concept is very simple. Perspective Maps simply allow the contrasting understandings of different organization to be mapped in relation to each other. Perspective Maps can be built from an amalgamation of various open data standards, most especially Strategy Markup Language and potentially modules within the Human Reference Model. Through the use of such maps, relationships between different…
'Disillusionment' is Not a Bad Word
We often equate the word ‘disillusionment’ with negativity, depression, and suffering. We tend to be afraid of this process as it means a certain chapter of our life has come to an end. We might feel that something is wrong with us, compounding the suffering even further. However, I increasingly am realizing disillusionment to be a wonderful, natural experience, so long as we learn…
StratML and Perspective Mapper
StratML (Strategy Markup Language) is an XML based language used to encode an organization’s or individual’s strategy information in an open, machine-readable format. Strategy includes the vision, mission, goals, objectives, and performance indicators of the parties. StratML serves as one of several ontologies that can be used to map out the perspectives of an entity….
Integrating Perspectives: The Challenge of our Times
It’s 2015, we’re well into the 21st century, and we are at a point in human history where many of us are experiencing a criss-cross of perspectives from not from different roles we play in our life, and not just different people we encounter in our life, but from different locations around the planet, and from across all time periods of human…
The Strategy of Spontaneity
This year, I made the decision of approaching future development of Perspective Mapper, for the most part, spontaneously. In other words, I’ve surrendered most of my timelines for the project, replacing them simply with general areas of focus. Why did I do this? Well, there are a whole host of reasons: Finding new approaches to human conflict is still, as of…

GAME'S ALMOST OVER: Impending Shift of Consciousness (audio)
GAME’S ALMOST OVER: Upcoming Shift Of Consciousness Consciousness is shifting gears. It will soon be apparent on a mainstream level, I feel, that reality is intersubjective — our thoughts, intentions, judgments, and feelings are interlinked at the core. The great challenge in the next several years, I believe, will be reconciling with the perspectives…
Feelings are the Cornerstone of Awareness (audio)
Feelings Are Central On the spiritual path, more than being aware of thoughts, words, actions, or behaviors of any kind, are feelings. Feelings — more precisely sensations — are the only facet of our awareness that are undisputable. Everything else is subject to interpretation, and misinterpretation, but feelings are what we feel..and there’s no question…
Is your Spiritual Practice LIMITING you? (audio)
Is our Spiritual Practice Limiting Us Many of us tend to give full honor to our spiritual practice as the most important priority in our life. I certainly do this with meditation and contemplation. Currently, nothing in life is more important. That said, we might notice our spiritual practice at some point loses its efficacy in providing us…
The Way *OF* the Peaceful Warrior (review)
I finished listening to the audiobook “Way of the Peaceful Warrior: A Book That Changes Lives“. Thanks much Robb Zeno for this enjoyable, insightful listen. I believe the master / disciple paradigm and other particulars in the journey described are not necessarily features in 21st century spiritual paths — nonetheless there’s still much joy and inspiration be had in this warm…
Clean Dialog Part 1: Sharing Perspectives, Not Advice
One of the most valuable communications we can give another person is sharing a mature perspective. On the flipside, one of the most devaluing communications we can provide is to give another person unsolicited advice. Sharing perspective and giving unsolicited advice are close cousins on the surface, but worlds apart behind-the-scenes. Let’s try to clarify…What’s the difference? Simply put…empowerment. Sharing a mature perspective is empowering. It…
