From the outside, spiritual awakening looks like death—a frozen figure at the event horizon. But on the inside? You’re being "spaghettified."

I wrote about the irresistible pull where separation collapses and time stops making sense in the Black Whole.

“Good vibes only" is spiritual bypassing.

There's only one signal. The "bad vibes" are actually interference created by your own clinging or resistance echoing inside you.

You aren't detecting the noise. You're creating it.

As seekers, we tend to chase ecstasy in meditation or think it's the point of any earnest practice.
But it's not the destination—it's sandwiched between routines and necessities.
The real practice is in picking up the rake immediately after the Universe melts your face off.

I tried to add my latest post on spiritual awakening to my GitHub manuscript.

My script errored: ! LaTeX Error: File 'soul.sty' not found.

You can't make this up.

Read to see how I accidentally turned my journal into a forensic case file against my own doubt.

TIL: Cheetah House is a non-profit documenting meditation impacts like libido loss, kriyas, & grief.

I spent years thinking these were "just me." Turns out, I'm a data point.

The West has been systematically stripping sacred technologies of their power and selling them back to you as products.

Yoga → Lululemon stretching
Astrology → pop psychology
Meditation → "mindfulness" for productivity

This is the commodification of the Soul.

I used to think I'd rather feel nothing. That's what happens when culture mistakes numbness for peace.

But the only way out is through friction. You have to churn milk to get butter.

Are you choosing the slow death of nothing or the burn of aliveness?

Monday: spine moved on its own during meditation
Tuesday: investigated wtf happened
Turns out it's called "kriyas"—spontaneous purification movements. Nervous system discharging trauma. Kundalini clearing blockages.
Using the same neural pathways as orgasm.
Yes really.

The US govt drove a woman to martyrdom in 1902 for teaching that yoga and sexual energy were linked.

Her name was Ida Craddock.

123 years later, I stumbled onto the exact same "heresy" she died for—without even knowing her name.

Prose came pouring out of me after sound bath yesterday. Afterwards, I realized: this was the sequel to a poem I wrote almost a year ago. A promise I didn't know I was keeping.

The worm got its wings.

I'm still processing what that means. #Meditation #Spirituality #SpiritualAwakening #Mysticism

Breaking News from the Field

Spiritual awakening is just playing "Getting Over It" ...but God is doing the voiceover... and realizing you've spent the last X years playing on mute.

I just published something that might break your brain.

Turns out: techniques aren't prescriptions to enlightenment. They're symptoms of it.

The ancient texts aren't instruction manuals. They're field reports.

And that changes EVERYTHING.

The Dark Night of the Soul, simplified:
1. God appears
2. You fall in love
3. God ghosts you
4. You lose your mind

If your meditation suddenly feels like a breakup, you aren't failing. You're being weaned off the high.

Read the survival guide for spiritual dryness below.

You can't debug a spiritual awakening. I tried.
Spent 4 hours in my journal junkyard looking for a clean stacktrace. Failed spectacularly.
