Synchronistic Wisdom

Empty Room

“The less there is of me, the more there is of Her.” Synchronicity is a powerful indicator that the belief that we are all One is indeed true. The less there is of you–blocking the Divine within–the more readily the Universe (Her/your Beloved/the Divine Mother/God) can work through your body and in your life…

Book Covers

I’ve finished the eBook version of Fading Toward Enlightenment ($9.95) and the rework and updates to The Implications of the Soul (free). Both are available on this site.

It’s getting a little crowded up here on my mountain. Apparently deer hunting season (with bows) is due to start in about a week and the hunters are nailing down their campsites early. Looks like I’ll be heading out tomorrow as I’ve grown kind of attached to the deer around here. North, South, East, or West? Not sure yet.

Seeing Clearly

Seeing Clearly

Seeing Clearly is now available for download. I originally wrote it back in 1997, though it was never published. More info here.

Out My Window

This little girl was eating my discarded sunflower seeds. I guess she liked the salt.

Finishing up Seeing Clearly and getting it ready for the publication online. Seeing Clearly is a lot more like Fading Toward Enlightenment (Spiritual and Poetic) than A Simple Explanation For Everything (Physical and Spiritual Theory). Easy, serene and with more than a dozen artistic photos. Hope you’ll like it.

Two New Videos

Monday, August 10th, 2009

I’ve just released a couple videos that I hope will stimulate interest in A Simple Explanation for Everything. Please go to YouTube and:

  • Watch them
  • Share them with your friends
  • Comment on them (on YouTube)

I hope that with your comments and sending the videos to others that your actions will generate enough interest that the videos will spread on their own. This will help me a great deal.

Here are the YouTube links:

Thanks, I know I’m asking for help here (and I hate asking for help), so I really appreciate it!

Nomad Randy

One of the reasons I returned to this area was to check out the rig of one of the people who inspired me to become a nomad. Nearly two years ago I came across Randy’s website. What caught my attention was that he had converted a cargo trailer into a stealthy RV trailer. Since he was in the northwest and I’ve been considering “downgrading” to a more stealthy vehicle, I invited myself over to check out his rig – to which he readily agreed, even though he knew nothing of me…

Back on Mt. Hood

Saturday, August 8th, 2009

2009_08_08_01.jpg

I’m back at my boondock spot on Mt. Hood (Oregon). I’m here for a couple of reasons: There’s a fellow nomad in the area whom I want to meet and check out his rig; I want some isolation to ebook-tize my other books; and I want to figure out my next steps without distractions.

Though it’s been less than a month since I was here before, a couple changes are apparent: It’s quite a bit colder; all the flowers in this shot are gone; and there are a lot more birds about. Funny how quickly a tiny clearing changes.

New Book – Somewhat New Site

A Simple Explanation For Everything

I’m pleased to announce the release of my latest book, A Simple Explanation for Everything. Available in eBook format (Adobe PDF) for instant download here.

I’ve also modified the website a bit, making it cleaner and more centered around my works. Let me know if you have any suggestions or see any problems. Thanks!

Your Bliss

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

My RV & Jeep

Yesterday’s post might have implied that I was pushing this nomadic lifestyle on you. I didn’t mean that at all. My main gist was to “find your bliss” and pursue it.

But how do you “find your bliss?” …

I Love The Nomad Life

Trees at Sunrise

I love this lifestyle. I’ve been up here on this hill outside the Olympic National Forest for about a week now, finishing up the book. Tomorrow, probably, I’ll move into a campground for a couple days to recharge the batteries, empty and fill the tanks, upload some big files to the ‘net and move on.

It’s so great to just up and go when you feel like it. The freedom. I’ve been on the road a year now, and I am so glad I made this decision.

I have absolutely no regrets. I hope each of you finds your bliss, your passion, and – when those natural “what if” fears arise – well, I hope you’re wise enough to ignore them.

Destiny

2009_07_29_01.jpg

I awoke last night at around 3 am, and, it being a hot night, I stumbled outside. As I was looking up at the North Star, a thought popped into my head, “There’s nothing to worry about, nothing that needs to be done – the future’s already been written and everything’s happening exactly as it should be.”

Just at that moment, a shooting star flashed across the sky and was quickly followed by three others.

I went back to bed feeling both content and blessed.

Jeff’s Lost Journey Part II

More photos from my brother’s lost journey. I’m dry camping in the forest up on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula – working on the book…

Ship on Puget Sound

A couple of days ago, while exploring the Olympic Peninsula and while reflecting on my brother’s unusual (for him) and spontaneous decision to fly out here, the thought popped into my mind, “Jeff’s here for a reason.”…

Whirlwind Tour

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Oregon Waterfall

Because my brother is only in town for five days, we’re doing a whirlwind tour of the area. Lots and lots of driving, lots of sun, but still time to get a good taste of what the Columbia Gorge has to offer.

Back in Portland

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

Simple B/W Plant

I’m back in Portland. My brother is flying in tomorrow for a few days. I’ve been hounding him for years to see the Pacific NW, so I guess he’s decided that now is a good time as he’s got himself a personal a tour guide.

What I like about Living Simply IV

Deer on Mt. Hood

I like opening my front door in the morning and being surrounded by beautiful, unspoiled forest.

Making Videos

Friday, July 10th, 2009

2009_07_10_01.jpg

One of the reasons that I came up this mountain, besides to escape the heat, was to find a place in nature where it was peaceful and quiet so I could shoot some videos for my book. The videos are just me doing the talking head about HDI, but I wanted a nice, serene background. Turns out it’s a lot harder to shoot video outside because the light is constantly changing, the wind blows your papers all over the place and flies land on your nose just as you are trying to make an important point.

So I ended up shooting the videos inside. Oh well – it’s still pretty damn nice up here.

Up the Mountain

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

Mt. Hood from Washington

I moved from the river to the mountain. It’s been really, really hot lately. Ironically, now that I’m up here, it’s starting to get kind of chilly.

In the photo above, shot from my last camp on the river, I’m about a third of the way up the left side of Mt. Hood.

Second Draft

Saturday, July 4th, 2009

Mt. Hood, OR

I’ve finished the second draft of, tentatively titled, A Simple Explanation for Everything. Since the first draft, I’ve probably added about five or six new chapters with an additional 25% to the word count.

HDI theory, this “simple explanation for everything,” eloquently explains some of the greatest mysteries in modern science: the Big Bang, Dark Matter, Quantum Entanglement, etc. But I debated back and forth on whether I should include a section on how HDI theory also explains the mystical: the Human Soul, Reincarnation, Spirit, etc..

Basically, I had to figure out who my target audience was.

The smart choice would have been to break it up into two books, one for the scientific type, and one for the spiritual type.

I, being the stupid type, have opted to target both – unifying the physical with the mystical.

This is a terrible marketing move, but, as I’ve said, I’m the stupid type and really don’t care.

What I like about Living Simply III

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Fishermen at John Day Dam, OR

I love filling my water cans early in the morning over at the state park. I love listening to the sounds of the river: the tugs, the waves and the seagulls. I love the way the wind, channeled through the gorge, gently rocks the RV and flutters the window shades.

I Think I’m Killing Celebrities

Wayne Wirs Is Killing Celebrities

Oh, no. They warned me about this. They said, “As you become more advanced in your spiritual practice, you may find you attain certain, mysterious powers. Don’t get attached to these!” They didn’t tell me I’d inadvertently start killing people with my mind!!! I’m not claiming responsibility for Michael Jackson or Farrah Fawcett, but apparently I did kill David Carradine and Billy Mays…

The Other Side of the River

Friday, June 26th, 2009

John Day Dam, Rufus, OR

I moved across the river today, too many people on the Oregon side. Though it’s only about a mile as the crow flies, it’s 15 miles as the RV drives. Lot more room to stretch your legs on this side. I have such a tough life.

Five AM

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009
Multnomah Falls, Oregon

During creative periods of my life, whether working on an interesting project or – as I am currently doing – writing a book, I often wake up around 5 am with a powerful insight, new idea, or an answer to a problem that has troubled me. I wish I could take credit for these thoughts, but they seem to come out of nowhere – gifts from the Ethereal…
