Awakening is usually precipitated by the honest, sincere, inquiry into who you really are.

In a quantum universe, magic is not the exception but the rule.

The first thing you discover is a kind of emptiness, a silence, a presence which doesn't seem to have content to it, like looking up at a limitless sky. That boundary-less place inside you is your own consciousness, your awareness. When you relax into it, you realize that it's also full - it is everything. You realize this presence is what you really are: Love.

That's the translucent life. You are continuously discovering how you can ooze more Spirit into your personal life and there's no end to that process. It goes on and on and deepens and deepens and deepens.

The translucent life is very much about overflowing with a gift to the world, rather than being here to consume or to get something for yourself.

It seems to me that all of us, in our own way, have our own personal lagos. We all have within us a voice that is whispering doubt, that is whispering suspicion, that's telling us there's something wrong, there's something missing, there's something that should be different. And we easily become hypnotized by that voice of doubt.

What was considered a peak mystical experience a few years ago is today the basic platform of sanity from which our exploration begins.
