Welcome to The Mystic Show, brothers and sisters :)
Understanding Proof of Work to Help Course-Correct Your Health, Fitness, Career, etc. - Ep.198
Welcome, friends :)
FYI, join us for Lightness Meditation twice each week: https://www.youtube.com/@LightnessMeditation
INTRO:
You have SO MUCH potential that is waiting to be unlocked - so many dreams and goals you want to achieve - so much help you want to give to your family and friends. To utilize your potential evaluating yourself is critical, and course-correcting is critical.
THE ANALOGY:
The concept of "proof of work" in Bitcoin directly applies to YOUR life - health, fitness, career, spirituality, etc. Here’s a short paragraph summarizing the concept of proof of work in terms of Bitcoin: https://www.perplexity.ai/search/in-one-short-paragraph-summari-6Vw_buvjSTmWUeY2kT4RSQ
HEALTH AND FITNESS:
A healthy fit body is proof of work.
CAREER:
A solid career that pays well and is fulfilling is proof of work. Specific knowledge, experience, people skills, industry awareness, etc.
SPIRITUALITY:
A balanced mind is proof of meditating regularly which is proof of work. Having discrimination is proof of work -- zooming out to see the government's fraud, propaganda, authoritarianism, etc.
CHALLENGE:
List the important areas of your life and evaluate your "work ethic".
- Family relationships
- Health and fitness
- Career
- Mental balance and power
- Meditation practice, spiritual growth

Releasing and Cleaning - Ep.195
Why go to the bathroom ever? And what does that have to do with your spirituality?
Managing All the Stress Caused by the Virus – Ep.194
Know:
- You are an infinitely-loved child of this universe.
- Nothing that ever happens to you is bad, though at times certain situations may be annoying, uncomfortable, frustrating, etc. It’s all part of the process of becoming purified.
Don’t:
- Panic.
- Follow the mainstream news too closely.
- Dismiss the danger.
Take time for yourself to:
- Meditate
- Read
- Walk outdoors
- Call family members and friends
- Write (journal, goals, vision, business plans, )
- Have deep conversations with your spouse, kids, family, etc.
- This may sound weird, but don’t be afraid to ponder death.
- Listen to previous episodes of this show

Introduction to The Ra Contact with Mike Waskosky – Ep.193
Enjoy my chat with my friend Mike Waskosky. We discussed the very basics of The Ra Contact and the Law of One.
More info from the book’s description: Don Elkins and Carla L. Rueckert worked together for 12 years to perfect the channeling process and receive philosophical inspiration and guidance from extraterrestrial sources. When Jim McCarty joined them in 1980 they began to receive a new and unique type of channeling contact from those of Ra. Through this contact, Ra shared information to help seekers of truth deepen their awareness and acceptance of self and other, and to help Earth move into the emerging fourth density of love and understanding. This book is the transcript from the recording of that conversation between the Questioner and Ra. Through questions & answers, the metaphysical blueprint of spiritual evolution is explored, from the microcosm to the macrocosm, from the particulars of life on this planet to the life of the cosmos, to the possibilities of healing, transformation, and self-realization for spiritual seekers and wanderers.
Mike Waskosky is a freelance website & app developer who is very active in UFO disclosure and metaphysics communities in Colorado Springs. Mike offers technical consulting to many in the wider UFO community, and has been a speaker at 2 major UFO conference events, focusing his teaching on the Law of One channeled material. Mike also recently created a social networking site for higher consciousness communities called the New Earth Network which offers easy ways to get more connected locally

The End…..for now – Ep.192
Hello everyone,
This will be the last episode of this podcast show…..for a while or maybe forever. I don’t know what the future holds but for the past 7 months I have not felt the inclination to speak about spirituality. Listen to this short episode for more explanation.
Of course, please enjoy ALL of the previous 191 episodes
Thank you to thank everyone who has contributed to my spiritual growth, which means you too if you’ve ever listened to this show.
I wish you speedy progress to the ultimate spiritual goal of human life

Groupism, Identity, and Character – Ep.191
Groupism: We choose our “team” in many areas of life and then stick with them and oppose all others. And worse, if we get sucked in completely, we let the group and/or its leader have total power over our own intelligence, wisdom and heart.
Human Beings as a whole make up one group. We come together after tragedies, etc. When an extraterrestrial threat happens we come together. We should live that way all the time. We have the ability to always follow the golden rule and treat others as brothers and sisters. Always. All the time.
Then Chris discussed these character traits:
Classy: adjective – 1. of high class, rank, or grade; stylish; admirably smart; elegant.
Graceful: adjective – 1. characterized by elegance or beauty of form, manner, movement, or speech; elegant.
Authentic: adjective – 1. representing one’s true nature or beliefs; true to oneself or to the person identified.
Kingly: adjective – 1. stately or splendid, as resembling, suggesting, or befitting a king; regal.
Royal: adjective – 1. descended from or related to a king or line of kings.
Sagacious: adjective – 1. having or showing acute mental discernment and keen practical sense; shrewd.
Wise: adjective – 1. having the power of discerning and judging properly as to what is true or right; possessing discernment, judgment, or discretion.
Serene: adjective – 1. calm, peaceful, or tranquil; unruffled.
Poise: noun – 1. a state of balance or equilibrium. 2. a dignified, self-confident manner or bearing; composure; self-possession. 3. steadiness; stability.
Honor: noun – 1. honesty, fairness, or integrity in one’s beliefs and actions.
Chris ended this episode with a wonderful quote from Henry David Thoreau:
“I have learned this, at least, by my experiment, that if one advances confidently in the direction of their dreams and endeavors to live the life that they have imagined, they will meet with success unexpected in common hours. They will put some things behind and pass an invisible boundary. New more Universal and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within this one. The old laws will be expanded and interpreted in their favor. And one begins to live with the license of a higher order of being.
“If you have built castles in the air your work need not be lost. That is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.”

Relying More and More on Your Inner Guidance, and Frustration Is a Gift – Ep.190
After a year of not speaking publicly about it, Chris discusses his metamorphosis last year.
Frustration… Chris read from Tony Robbins’ book about the message that frustration is giving you, and the solution to handling it elegantly.
Walk on the “smoother” part of the trail (in someone else’s footsteps) for as long as that particular trail is still the one you want to be on.
Discomfort prods you — but be sure to move forward, not backward!
Chris has been on an effective spiritual path for many years. And last year his training seems to have been bumped up to the next level of progress – morphing his practice and himself into something much more subtle.
Chris read three passages from 365 Tao: 118 Guidance, 124 Defiance, and 140 Dissent.
One way of stating the goal of human life: Becoming a “perfect” human being like the great souls of the past — having no religion or politics or anything!
Also Chris touched on the role of a guide.

Energetic Upgrading with Yasmina – Ep.187
Be a fly on the wall for my deep chat with Yasmina Bauernfeind, multidimensional energy-specialist.
Yasmina tells us why this Fall of 2016 is an ideal time to raise your consciousness. Veils are thinning – grit is being taken off… Your energetic upgrading is being accelerated.
In higher dimensions, there is no time, space, duality or locality. We talk about a kind of new approach — merging from within — expanding through experience.
Support and strength from the entities/beings in the spiritual realms comes in words, feelings, images, etc. Listen to your inner promptings. Be aware that your own doubt is an obstacle. And, of course, it is not possible for the mind to comprehend higher dimensions.
Listening — sometimes we hear reflections from the lower planes which appear in the form of fear or agitation. This is not true intuition. Idea: If an intuition comes 3 times then it’s probably genuine intuition.
It’s a conducive time to claim your own authority, your own sovereignty. Get out of old ruts and the thinking that, “I’m not able to take responsibility for making my own choices.”
Self-Love is how to deal with negativity and condemnation from others. You drop into it (Self-Love) and then there’s no duality, negativity, etc.
We ended with Yasmina giving a short message to those who want to progress spiritually but may be experiencing lots of pain and suffering.
Enjoy listening to the entire episode!

The Field of Randomness, Karma, and Superstition – Ep.186
First Chris read a passage from 365 Tao titled Horizon, which revealed the necessity to view your life from a higher vantage point so you can see things on the horizon as they approach you. When you don’t see something coming and it hits you hard, you may feel like the universe is punishing you, but if you saw it coming you could have easily avoided it, or at least prepared for it. This is wisdom.
Lifting your gaze above small, day-to-day occurrences that may seem to be good or bad “luck.” Avoid the trap of superstition!
What Leonard Mlodinow (in The Drunkard’s Walk) calls “randomness” is the scientific word for the phenomenon/field in which “karma” is able to be delivered. “Karma” = the reflection of ourselves taking the form of circumstances.
The world is vibrating and plastic, and consciousness directs the formation of things and circumstances using the atoms, etc. as it wills.
Like the construction of a fractal, the small happenings in life can seem random but the superstructure which they form is predictable and unavoidable (and beautiful!). Consciousness designs that form and then the universe, via its vibrating tiny parts, fulfills that design.
Chris tells the story of his finding Sahaj Marg meditation. It could have happened a month before or the year after. Or via internet or via word of mouth. But it was ready to happen and GOING to happen due to the student and the teacher being ready. Some higher intelligence facilitated that circumstance.
Pure randomness vs karma, fate, etc?
Enjoy listening to the entire episode!

Zach Bellows – Ep.185
This is the fledgling bird that crash landed on Zach and sat beside him as we were having our chat. (You can hear when it happened in the audio!)
Enjoy my deep conversation with Zach Bellows which we recorded in a park near a coffee shop. He shares so many spiritual insights. And halfway through a fledgling bird crash landed on Zach’s head and then it sat next to him for the rest of our chat.
I met Zach at our Pause Your Life meetup group here in Colorado Springs.
Zach is a teacher, musician and composer. And a person who genuinely wants to know what’s beyond our mundane auto-pilot lives.
Here are some of the topics we discussed:
- Continuous peace
- The lie that creates your life – that you are separate from Love/God
- A Course in Miracles
- Discernment
- The spiritual goal
- Listen and Follow
- What is real
- Trust
- The worst you can do is delay
- Fledgling bird
- Forgiveness
- No private thoughts and no people pleasing
- There is no death
