Reverse Engineering Enlightenment

I am a firm believer that developing and maintaining a holistic ecology of spiritual practices is the best way to cultivate wisdom, find peace, and help manifest a more beautiful world for us all. I believe this is the only way forward for humanity. We need a radical shift in our collective consciousness if we’re going to survive for much longer. But we are mistaken if we think we have nothing to learn from the spiritual traditions of the past. They have survived and prospered for hundreds if not thousands of years for a reason. And they have all produced people of extraordinary virtue and character. We now have the opportunity, for the first time in human history, to look back at the traditions of the past through the lens of rationality, reason, and scientific research to analyze and assess what would be useful to carry forward and what would be best left behind. And some incredible people have done just that and I think they have some very important guidance for us all...
