Hooks, Hoops and Letting It Go
Zen Gardner, Guest Waking Times I love the expression, “What if they had a war and nobody came?” I feel the same about the matrix and the awakening. What if the matrix had nowhere to manifest? Our idea of self is contrived. It’s broadcast at us from birth and reinforced by the world around us. …
You May Wake Up… But Will You Get Out of Bed?
Julian Rose, Contributor Waking Times Each one of us came here with a purpose.

Levels of Consciousness
Steve Pavlina, Guest Waking Times In the book Power vs. Force by David R. Hawkins, there’s a hierarchy of levels of human consciousness. It’s an interesting paradigm. If you read the book, it’s also fairly easy to figure out where you fall on this hierarchy based on your current life situation. From low to high, the levels …
Waking From the Waking Dream
Colin Bondi, Contributor Waking Times Many of you have heard the statement that life is a dream or like a dream. It’s an often repeated concept in spiritual circles and, even to some extent, in popular culture. While it’s a fascinating concept, few people really see things that way. We are all familiar with the …
Is Outrage Over the Monsanto Protection Act a Turning Point for the Food Movement?
Michele Simon, Guest Waking Times In March, when I first wrote about how the biotech rider—called the Monsanto Protection Act by its vocal opponents—undercut the constitutional concept of separation of powers, it seemed hardly anyone (other than the usual advocacy groups) was paying attention. But then a lot of people got mad, really mad. Within a few …
Spiritual Transformation
Konstantin Eriksen, Guest Writer Waking Times You are asleep and you don’t even know it. You need a spiritual transformation. Deep down, you know it. Something doesn’t feel right. It’s like you’ve been living the same day, over and over again. Life doesn’t seem to have any meaning. Like in the movie The Matrix, we live …
The Wake-Up Call
Peter Russel, Spirit of Now Waking Times The ancient Chinese symbol for crisis, wei-chi, combines two elements: danger and opportunity.

The Role of the Catalyst
Chris Bourne, Contributing Writer Waking Times Inspiring change Some souls have incarnated here to hold an energetic harmony which provides empathic support for evolving people. Others however have come with the specific ‘mission’ to break down illusions and inspire change by the very energy they hold. Such people may be called ‘catalysts’. They’ll frequently find …
Efflorescence
Eric, Day Blind Star Waking Times I have always had a peculiar feeling about this place. Stretching back to my earliest memories there has always been a restlessness, like a tiger in a cage pacing back and forth with wide, unmoving eyes. Like a soul displaced and far from home. I muted myself early on and …
