Basecamp for Men E139: Krivda…Crooked Truth

E139 Krivda: Crooked Truth with Special Guest Enna Reittort

 

E139 Introduction

If you are going to follow your Hero’s Journey and be committed to principles like Truth and Freedom and our mutual humanity, you path will inevitably take you far and wide. Once you leave the well-worn path that everyone knows, you start to pick up the scent of the mystics trail.

Why have mystics always lead the way in our understanding our ourselves and our history? Well, for one, they are fearless explorers of all things human. They are not confined by orthodox or cultural norms. They say, do, and read and research things that are uncomfortable. And they help draw patterns for the rest of us. Patiently sketching out all the things that they are noticing.

The good ones seem to be able to point to something that is both timeless and eternal AND is extremely relevant to the landscape we find ourselves in today. When lies and deception and KRIVDA (to use my guests vernacular) are the order of the day, keeping alive what is deeply human is the task of the mystic and the seer.

My guest today is one such human. A woman who has done a tremendous amount of work to understand who we are and where we might be going. And she’s written a very important book that we will talk about today.

Some of our talk about the Old Testament might be upsetting to some of you. I get that.

For mystics, it is important to look at all of the clues as to who we are and the Bible has some important ones, especially when viewed mythically and through the eyes of a Gnostic. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this conversation and connection as much as I did.

Enna Reittort Bio-

My guest today is a an author, anthropologist, linguist, and mystic. Enna Reittort is the author of Krivda: Godrix Against the Matrix and is a kindred spirit living in rural Thailand. Here is my interview with author Enna Reittort.

E139 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed the first part of my interview with Enna Reittort. You can find her book Krivda: Godtrix Against the Matrix at www.ennareittortbooks.com We also mentioned John Lash and his book on Gnosis is also a classic. It is titled Not in His Image and can be easily found on Amazon.

Part two of my interview with Enna we cover some more interesting terrain. Including ET’s, more about the Aeon Sophie, and a different take on the Russia/Ukraine situation as Enna used to live in Russia and has a perspective not heard in the western media. Imagine that! Thank you listeners, I appreciate your attention.

Basecamp for Men E133: Our Joy is Our Strength

E133: Our Joy is Our Strength with Special Guest Walkyria Whitlock

 

E133 Introduction

I have grown to love how organically my episode’s arrive. Guests can seem to come out of thin air, popping up to have a conversation with me just as I am starting to get a bit anxious about how do I make my next one.

I am excited about the direction of the show. I can see where humanity is heading. The Hero’s path is lit before us. We are resourced for this journey. I know the conversation that I want to have. I can almost sense their form in the imaginal realm. Can you sense it as well? It is whispering to us.

My guest today arrived in this synchronistic fashion. A charming young women who I now see as a fellow seeker. Our conversation reminded me about something important. That our joy and sense of innocence and wonder are part of our gifts. The Divine LOVES that through this whole spiritual war that we have been a part of, we can still laugh and play and express tremendous joy and gratitude!

It’s incredible isn’t it. Humanity is truly astounding. We show our strength in many ways- our resilience and heart, our love and commitment, our deep loyalty to one another. And our Warrior spirit. All are undeniable.

But one aspect of strength that doesn’t often get mentioned is our capacity for joy and play. This dance with the Divine. For isn’t play and joy a sure sign of our faith- in God, in the Divine plan, in one another, and our own place in this emerging story.

If we can carry all the spiritual Warriors gifts AND not give up our child-like innocence and joy, what can’t we do together?

Thank you for riding shotgun with me. I have enjoyed our conversation and your insights on this incredible journey that we have all been on together.

Walkyria Whitlock Bio–

My guest today is Walkyria Whitlock. Walkeria is an author, yoga teacher, and a young woman who has followed her dreams, travelling to over 29 different countries. Her personal mission is to bring more joy to the world through the practice of gratitude. Here is my interview with Walkyria Whitlock.

E133 Final Thoughts-

I hope you enjoyed our time with Walkyria Whitlock. I love what she said about being action-oriented. That even when you are trying to figure out the direction or the next chapters of your life, be in action around things. I think this is really good advice for all sorts of people who are working through feeling stuck.

And her expression of joy being a sort of “thank you” for your life is great. I plan on using this very reminder myself as I also love to express joy and play in its many forms.

Basecamp for Men E132: Healing and the Big C

E132: Healing and the Big C with Special Guest Federico Vallin

 

E132 Introduction

This episode is dedicated to my dear departed friend Sjon Delmore. You are missed and thought about more than you know.

As a writer and someone who has a deep interest in how we use words and language to create transformation, I am always interested when I see someone who takes metaphysical principles and applies them to an area of life that I haven’t yet seen before. The topic of cancer is one such area. With all my reading and studying in the metaphysical and spiritual traditions, I have yet to see anyone really take a unique and powerful approach to cancer.

Up until today’s conversation, I have viewed cancer as many of you probably do: as an extremely unfortunate fate that could befall any of us at anytime. And if a friend got diagnosed with a cancer (up until now), I didn’t really have any resources for them. As evidence, I watched my dear friend Sjon pass away two years ago and sat with him through chemo. I felt helpless and frustrated that I didn‘t have another option to point him to.

Cancer is in everyone’s circle, is it not? Everyone knows someone who has had or who passed away from the big C. It is the cloud that lurks behind every suspicious lump, every test that the doctor says we want to do another. It lurks behind every bioposy and colonoscopy and breast exam. There is such an air of fear around it.

What would do if you received a cancer diagnosis from your doctor? Most would say, dig in, fight, do your chemo and your radiation. Pray and hope for the best. This is mainstream medicines best option and has been the de facto approach for damn near everyone. And this approach hasn’t seemed to changed much or evolved over the years and decades, has it?

Without really being aware of it, I was always looking for a different approach. One I could point people towards as an alternative. Many people have and will find themselves with cancer in the coming years. It will be part of their Hero’s Journey. Most will take the tried-and-true path and I understand that.

Mainstream medicine does save some who have cancer. But I have long wondered why the numbers weren‘t very good. Could there be other approaches out there that we don’t know about or haven’t discovered yet? Not necessarily to replace the orthodox approach but to add to our toolbox as an option. My guest today is someone who has developed one such approach and I am excited to have a conversation with him and for you to listen in.

Basecamp for Men E127: Up the Mountain

E127: Up the Mountain with Special Guest Chris Pallis

 

E127 Introduction

One of our topics on Basecamp is Consciousness, spiritual awakening and inner knowing. These are really the same topic and it is near and dear to me as a Seeker of Truth. If we are all heading towards the same mountaintop, then showing the various ways we move out of our respective “basecamps” can have a unifying and inspiring effect.

There is no one road that is right for each one of us. Yet in our own unique ways, how we choose to live impacts the collective way up. As people find love and light and how to better serve these foundational principles, our strength is fortified. We are, in cosmic terms, a legendary race of beings.

We seem to be on the verge of something. Something that is reflected in both the inner and the outer world. There is an interconnectedness and Truth that is looking for you. It may look like you have been adrift yet here you find yourself…..at the brink of your own spiritual awakening and deep understanding of our place in the cosmos.

Wisdom is your native language. Maybe you have not been in the habit of exploring your inner depths and what you understand but there it is. Your birthright as a human.

We have stated it before and I will say it again. Spiritual awakening is a group effort. We all get there when we all get there and when we get there is NOW. We are an evolving, interconnected, emerging tribe of people that are just now realizing what this is all about.

Metaphorically, people are gathering around the fire to hear the myths and truths that will set us free.

Chris Pallis Bio

My guest today is Chris Pallis and he is a mystic, a teacher, and the director of the St. Germain Foundation here in Seattle. He is also a man I consider a mentor. A man who walks the talk and selflessly serves humanity. Here is my interview with Chris Pallis.

 

Basecamp for Men E124: Finding Our Way

E124: Finding Our Way with Special Guest Roy Holman

 

E124 Introduction

I would like to start with a quote by St. Augustine who said: “The Truth is like a lion. You don’t have to defend it. Let it loose and it will defend itself.”

We are at a most interesting time in our awakening. It seems the truth is making itself known to more and more people. And not just the libertarians and freedom-loving tribe. The center, center-left, and yes even some lefties I know are seeing things differently than even a few months ago.

People seem, dare I say, LESS DIVIDED than before? The new book by Robert Kennedy Jr. The Real Anthony Fauci has stormed up the charts. It is red-pilling the center and center-left as we speak. Do you wan to know who Tony Fauci REALLY is? Go grab a copy for yourself and see what all the buzz is about.

And people seem to be turning more to God or Christ or the Divine and this is the other aspect of the Great Awakening. Humanity is learning of our Divine partnership in unique ways with each one of us adding to the whole.

My guest and I were marveling off microphone that we have both traversed the spiritual road far and wide and arrived back at God and Christ. There has been a particular magic for me in all of this. My spiritual journey has been a constant in my life. It was always imbued with myth and teachings from the East. It is only now, well into my middle years, that I have taken a keen interest in Christ and his teachings. It seems that God and the Divine like to keep us on our toes.

With that being said, I have always felt that BFM was divinely guided. My guests and topics come to me in often synchronistic ways. And it has taught me to trust God, to trust myself as a medium and messenger, and to trust you my listener to be able to pull from the conversations the insights and tidbits that you need to accelerate YOUR awakening and Hero’s Journey.

2022 is going to have us on the edge of our seats. There is protests for medical freedom and sovereignty happening all over the place. The center and center/left are waking up. This is the stage that mystics call The Quickening.
