The Deep End

What is this great divide that has become America? We address this divide as a psychosocial event to try to understand what is happening to us both within and without. Are we seeing and feeling the collapse of America or the transition of America into renewal? Which side of the divide do you live in? Blessings

Psyche is both the kernel of our souls and the totality of our being. How can we find ways to understand these internal forces that are our very being. We look within and discuss this journey from psyche to divine love. Be well... Wonder deep...

We all must make this journey of life both out and in. Where do the out and in meet? What is that bridge that weaves the inner and outer lives together. How can we best tend to this two part spiritual event that is our life? Blessings

What are these inner walls we build to protect our selves? What is the underlying spiritual aspect of our brick by brick wall building? How can we become more open and vulnerable while still feeling safe? This is one of the front lines in today's world. Blessings

In this time of fake news and misinformation how can we know what is TRUE? We live in a swirl of information with little orientation. We dive into the deep end of how we can sort out the truth from all the noise and grow a clearer sense of personal discernment. Welcome to a pickled America! Blessings

America's Founders based any sense of liberty on VIRTUE. Without virtue a republic cannot stand. What did virtue mean to them and how has it changed over the centuries? What has happened to us that our sense of virtue has frayed and fragmented? Can we regrow a new sense of virtue? Blessings

How can America move forward? Is it possible? How can we find ways to talk about it, look at it historically and learn new approaches to face the radical obstacles that confront us? A hopeful conversation!! God bless America.

What is White Privilege? Can we turn our White Privilege into Grace? How? Why are we so blind to our own Privilege? Is there anyway out of here? This was a great spiritual reflection on how to turn our lives toward transformation in the middle of White Privilege. Love to hear your thoughts. Blessings...

Why is humor so important, especially in divisive times? How are today's comedians much like jesters of old? In these dark time it is the comedians who are on the front lines on a revolution. Truth is hanging out in a joke and wit is the stuff that can unmask a king. May our hearts be light even as the times grow heavy! Blessings

Psychedelics have changed the human family over and over... will they do it again? What are these "magical" substances? How do they work? What is this experience about and what does it look like from the inside? They changed my life and still do. Whew and wow! Blessings

What is Consciousness? Is it produced by the brain or is the brain a receiver of some greater field of consciousness? We explore these within the context of Dan Brown's new book "Secret of Secrets". What do you think? Be well, wonder deep.

In today's world it is easy to miss how wondrous the human family is. We stop and take a moment to lift up some of the redeeming qualities of who we are as human beings and celebrate them even in the face of all our flaws. Blessing to all!

Welcome to the Season of Light! Just about all religions and cultures celebrate this season and calls the human family back to wisdom, compassion, consciousness and divine presence. Gathering around a fire, an Advent Wreath or displaying a simple candle in your window all invite renewal into our lives. Be well...Wonder deep! Blessings

What is the difference between Soul and Mind? How can our thinking about about the differences help in our spiritual evolution? Redhawk, Mary Anne and Bob discuss the way we can grow from this inner conversation with ourselves. Blessings...

Why are personal stories so important to share? Why do some have trouble sharing their stories? Mary Anne Ruddis, Bob Hays and Redhawk share some of their own stories and how they affected their lives and how sharing them increases our own bandwidth of experience. Share your stories! Wonder deep...

How can we rekindle our dwindling empathy? What are things we can do to reconnect us to each other in a healthy way? Redhawk and his cohorts explore a number of ways we can grow more empathy in our human hearts. Stay vulnerable!

Empathy is on the run! Why is EMPATHY dwindling in our human family? What are the aspects of our society that are dulling our ability to see from another persons feelings and perspective? Redhawk offers a clear diagnosis on the "State of Empathy" in the human family. Be well... Wonder deep...

When is enough enough? How do we notice when enough is enough? How is learning about enough necessary for our spiritual journey? Are we living under a prevailing myth of "endless more"? Do you think we need more of "enough"? Blessings

Suffering is part and parcel of of the human experience. There is no way around it. What do we do with our suffering? Are we headed for a huge wave of suffering and what will we do with it? God help us!!! Be well... Blessings

What is the difference between "level" and "mode" of consciousness? The devil is in a high state of consciousness. How can we integrate these two aspects of consciousness? Why is it important for us to understand the lenses we create our reality from? Blessings...

The question "who are you" is one of the most ancient among human beings. Over time, what have we come up with and where do we go from here? What has come between "who we are" and the world out there? Who do you "think" you are?

The Earth is the true Holy Land; how is that so? How can we think about the Earth as Holy? What is "Our Story"? How is a narrative able to bring us together as a human family? Love to hear your view on our emerging story. Redhawkthedeepend@gmail.com

Welcome to "the great disconnection, the defining social crises of our era; a hollowing out of the bonds that give life meaning, even as the illusion of connection multiplies." Big sigh with a desire to make something of it... blessings!

How is the defense mechanism of "projection" an invitation to wholeness? How can we learn to pay more attention to our unconscious processes by way of our projections? Our inner work is spiritual work. Separating our inner world from what is "out there" is a huge step on the path. Blessings
