The Deep End

What truly constitutes health and wholeness? How have our understandings changed and to what end? We take a lively jaunt through a number of ways of looking at health and wholeness and we look at some of the forces that work against a larger view of being health and whole human beings and nations. Blessings

Diversity is baked into all creation… there is no creation without it. Yet the human family has a difficult time embracing human diversity. Why? How is it that fear, greed and intolerance make there way into just about all attempts at multiculturalism? How can we see diversity as an existential evolutionary challenge and learn new ways to embrace our differences? Blessings…

The grand metaphysical question is “why anything at all”? East and West respond differently, especially with regards to the concept of “nothingness”. Redhawk takes his best guess as to why anything at all through the lens of deep end and his own personal experience. Blessings…

Enlightenment means different things to different people both East and West and from person to person. Yet, we can all agree that we are moving toward greater awareness both within and without. What does this road look like and what are some of the challenges that meet us on the way? Blessings

The human family has been asking “the human question” for millennia. We discuss the latest research and look at the many dimensions and complexities inherent in the mere asking of this question. What a trip this human experience is. Blessings!

What is TIME? How can it flow at different rates? Does all time exist simultaneously? If it does what does that mean? We entertain the idea of the Block Universe theory and tease out many of its mysteries. Blessings.

Eternity is not a forever but an always. Is eternal life possible and how does that differ from living forever? We go all the way to the depth of “Nothingness”, beyond all somethings. Blessings

Consciousness is so beyond our understanding. We have “Neural Network Correlations” at 40htz and information theories all the way to quantum understandings… all fall short and merely make the mystery of consciousness more muddy, chaotic and mysterious. 🤪

EveryONE has a faith. What is yours? Is it transformative? Does it help you become a new person with a new understanding and view of the world? Is it active or passive? Whether in a God or gods, reason or the Tao or the cosmos and/or the Self… where do you put your faith and to what end?

What is “hope”? How does it help us live longer and be less anxious? Is there hope for tomorrow or are we doomed? I am hopeful! How bout you? Blessings…

How do we soil our nests in so many ways… from the earth to our communities and relationships.

What is the difference between getting old and growing old?

Where are you at home? In a house? …an apartment or condo? Are we at home on Earth? What does “HOME” mean and why is it such a primal need? We explore the many layers of HOME and how it creates wholeness and health. Blessings

A wonderful romp through space and time by looking at the visual arts; as they show us what the world looks like through the eyes and hearts of the artist. We also delight in the differences between East and West art throughout history. Be well…wonder deep!

Why is Justice so important for the human family? From the Golden Rule to the root paradigms of heaven/hell and reincarnation, justice seems deeply embedded in our consciousness. Blessings

We all need a place to feel safe and secure… our Comfort Zone. As well, we all need to step out of our comfort zone if we are to grow and evolve. We explore the many ins and outs of this place where we are most at home. Blessings

We can’t do without them.

Relationships are central and integral to everything we do hear or say. (Due to technical difficulties we had to split this episode in two - parts A & B.)

Not Jesus or The Buddha of the Tao or any god will save us… but there is hope. There are two integral aspects within human beings that can save us… Empathy and Curiosity. How? Join us in our conversation and think on how empathic curiosity can connect us in healthy ways.

The odds of you being here have been calculated to be 400,000,000,000,000 to 1 (that’s trillion). The improbability of you being here make you miraculous! We seek to celebrate the miracle of being consciously alive… and hope you’ll join us. Blessings

What is “phenomenology”? How can it help us be more honest and authentic with our own personal experiences and help us understand others experiences? Although much of our lives is subjective, it is that subjective center that is the moral agent of the world. Your experience is real and valuable when you look at it through the lens of phenomenology. Blessings

It has been said that children have rice paper souls… so do you. We can be so hard on ourselves while being kind and gracious to others. How can we practice self-compassion? How can we change our internal state of affairs from negative to learning to live ourselves, in all our imperfections? Self compassion is part of our growing edge. Blessings

Projection has been called a defense mechanism, and with good reason. However it is also what we all do with the world… projecting our feelings, hopes and dreams. How can we sort out our projections and get closer to the REAL? Is that possible? Blessings

We all have them and for many they are painful… but they need not be. Regrets are a look backwards that we might move forward, as Daniel Pink states in his new book “The Power of Regret”. How can we best look at our regrets without getting caught up in the emotional backwash? How can we use them to grow? Blessings

Is the “global brain” real? Can we help this global brain become more healthy? What is this “global mind”? Is global consciousness a natural progression of self awareness and a new order of consciousness itself? Blessiongs
