Dear Visitor

Thank you for visiting this site and I hope you enjoyed some of my articles and thoughts, whether you agreed with them or not.

My primary interest as a writer is presenting new possibilities, breaking down limitations, and finding the cracks and inconsistencies in both orthodox and alternative ideologies and dogmas. I have little time for those who are too sure of themselves and think they are mouthpieces of Truth. It is far more important to know what we don't know than it is to know what we do, and if more of us accept the limits to our knowledge and realitymaps, the world would be a more peaceful, tolerant and loving place.

So please do not expect ideological consistency in my work. Ideas and beliefs I present are merely being used as tools, in the moment, to show another possibility and to break an ideological stranglehold on Truth that someone has set up to maintain control. Finding Truth may be comforting for periods of time, but eventually we have to move on to find greater inclusion and deeper understanding of our experience, so that we realize more and more of our limitless potential, and allow our hearts to naturally flower. Hearts cannot open in those that hold too tightly to conceptual truth.

My own life path is a spiritual one, but not a conceptual spiritual one. With each passing year, I let go more and more of who and what I think I am, becoming increasingly transparent as I rest in the divine grace of pure awareness. Of course, every now and then I still focus the mind to write some article or other that I feel compelled to write, experiencing a brief and somewhat uncomfortable intensity of thoughts, emotions, feelings and ideas that come flowing out of me, before the relief of finally finishing and relaxing back into happy being. (Probably explains the hurried proof-reading!)

I have received many emails over the years from those wanting to discuss what I have written. But invariably, the term "discuss" turns out to be a euphemism for angry invalidation because what I have written has challenged some cherished belief or precious teacher. As I now have no interest in being "right" or defending my writing — what I write can stand on its own two feet — I politely decline any invitation to enter into dialogues or discussions. There are plenty of others all too willing to fight ideological battles in various forums, blogs and comment sections around the internet.

Thanks again for your visit,

Lak'ech Ala K'in
