Title: Integral Explorations in Spirituality and Business

Gender: Male

Location: Seattle, WA United States

About Me:

Integral Explorer in Seattle

I am an Integrally informed marketing consultant helping professional service firms attract quality clients and referrals using internet marketing. I do website effectiveness audits and help architect search engine marketing  plans.

I also do organizational and leadership development consulting and coaching for business using the Integral perspectives as a tool to build greater awareness and facilitate more effective teams. I use  the Insights  online assessment tool to help increase awareness of Self,others ,and team dynamics. Insights is based on the work of Carl Jung and used by companies like MIcrosoft, Boeing, and Nike.

I am most interested in the practical application of the integral perspective. For example, I am more interested in learning how Spiral Dynamics was applied to the transition a society from Apartheid in South Africa than becoming expert at describing first tier and second tier value memes.

I see myself as a living constant changing experience of transformation .

I agree with Ken when he writes: “How and why individuals grow, develop, and transform is one of the great mysteries of human psychology. The truth is, nobody knows. There are lots of theories, lots of educated guesses, but few real explanations. “  ( from the draft of Integral Spirituality”


 I have worked for several years with several teachers that are part of Ken's circle including Tony Robbins, David Deida, Terry Patten and Saniel Bonder. I have personally found that the live experience of working with teachers and mentors to be exponentially more impactful than just reading a book.


I have had several awakenings that have shifted my identity and beliefs about who I am at the core beyond body, minf ,and emotions.

I had an awakening after particiapting in the Waking Down community and have had further satori experiences that have revealed further direct experiences of truth to me.

I have a devotional heart that infused with Spirit has the ability to be a De-Icer for the human heart.

I have recurring visions  about a spiritual healing business  called Vajra's Transmission . We don't work on cars. Specializing in De Icing the Human Heart ….

Some Rumi For you 

 

Don't be addicted to subtle discussion,

tying and untying knots, posing difficulties

that then you resolve.

Doing that, you're like a bird

Who learns how to loosen the snare

And then fastens it again, to show off his strange, new skill.

Don't forget that the point is to escape!

Remember how it feels to sail the mountain air

and smell the sweetness of the high meadows.”
