Podcast 41 - Journey to the East
Our friend Christopher Moors returns in this episode to talk about the “Journey to the East.” Our conversation involves Chris’ Zen outlook and insights. This west meets east spiritual combination has manifested in Chris’ life and Work.
We speak about the process of creating internal stillness, the Road to Inner Light, ways of being, maintaining a fluid consciousness, making the leap from the head to the heart, and the historical and mythological journeys of others that we can use as examples and inspiration. Also notable is the importance of not creating beliefs by grasping for conclusions.
“… this Magick is really symbolic of the Truth of our own life and our own existence. The Magick is real and the Magick can be all of ours when we uncover / recover the meaning and depth of our Soul.”

Thanks for this excellent podcast, Greg. Christopher, in his mellow tones, described much of what I’ve gleaned from my own Tao studies. Creating space for the Oneness in meditation, and breaking from the past…all difficult and yet worthwhile endeavors.

Angela- Thanks again for your support, as well as sharing your own experiences (at surfingthetao.com). This can be difficult work to be sure, but the rewards can be infinite.

Hi Oop fans. It is a pleasure and a joy to be on the air with Greg. Something is happening here.
Truth is fun. Sometimes it stings but the rewards are much greater than the sacrifice.
We are already here/there/everywhere/VIBRATION/A U M . . .
Now.
Good to be here.
Your friend,
~Christopher
