• Everything maps onto everything else.  A ‘how to’ guide in dealing with life’s karmic waves
  .
• We could look to anything, even the arrangement of the dust under your bed.  But some ‘mappings’ are more easily read than others.
• One popular mapping is astrology, but to read it accurately is more elusive than one might believe
• Here we pick the example of water.  Waves on the ocean or flowing down a mountain stream.  
• Rip Tides, eddie currents, rapid, and waterfall to name a few.
  .
• Go with the flow or fight your karma with everything you’ve got?
• To understand this is a major step in understanding how to navigate the karmic waters of your life.
• Most of your karma is between your ears and in your heart.
• Once understood, the question is how you live it,  That is the subtle art of life.

The Power of One-Liners

by Michael Mamas | Sunday, September 7, 2025 | Fundamental Principles, Personal Growth, Spirituality | 0 comments

Too many words can wrestle your mind to the ground, leaving Truth hidden within. One-liners inspire inner reflection and insight.

• Excess words can obscure truth—tangle your mind in the weeds
• We live in an age of over-information and under-knowledge
• It’s not about collecting facts; it’s about conceiving insight from within
• “Jesus loves the worst of the worst” — unpacking what that really means
• Morality vs. moralism
• The “fake reality diesel” — the conditioned mind,
• Truth is an abstraction that lies at the depth of your being, of everything
• It is the transcendent, the Absolute, the unified field
• Transcend thoughts through a single, powerful one-liner

Conceive the Universe

by Michael Mamas | Sunday, August 31, 2025 | Fundamental Principles, Personal Growth, Spirituality

It’s not about facts. It’s about conceiving from within.

The Veda exists within every point in creation eternally.

The ‘story’ is great, but what lies deeper is much greater.

The story points in a direction where few think to go.

Ask what is the underlying principle in nature.  Conceive that.

How to learn from a Spiritual Master.  

Step one, be sure the master is for real!

From what I have seen, few people do step one well.

It is not about emotion, hype, drama, flash, vogue, etc.  Look as deeply as you can.  It is not about if it resonates with something within you.  It is about what within you it resonates with.  As Adi Shankara said, “The spiritual path is the path of discernment”

It is not about personality or conformity with your preconceived notions.  If it was, then where is the learning.

It is not a popularity contest, or a social gathering point

Common sense, spirituality, depth, in-sight

Really it might all too often just come down to motivation… what are you really wanting?

Looking into the Mirror

When he/she holds up a mirror, what do you do? mirroring

When something is not consistent with your views… think or better said discern.  Where do you go when on the edge?  Do you learn or reject?  Do you deepen your thinking, or reject and judge.

Do you embrace your issues, or truth.

All too often, “your truth” is really just your issues.

Assuming the person is truly a spiritual master, how do you learn from that person?

Listen carefully, observe, reflect, the mirror shows your beauty and your limitations.  If you are willing to look, it points in the direction of your growth.
