Let's give it up for Mother Nature! What a gal. She gives us literally everything we have and asks nothing in return – don't say she doesn't speak, you're just not listening! Or maybe you are. Maybe you too are aware just how plentiful are the gifts and opportunities dangled before us like lush fruits of the jungle as we spin through space at stunning speed. In this episode, I discuss the nature of nature (including reasons to think the Earth is literally a sentient entity) and why the prevalent self-hatred of humanity (often justified with reference to ecological abuses and failings of conscience) is but a juvenile cocoon ready to be released as the butterfly of forgiveness when we realise we ARE nature and that Gaia is doing this to herself, through us – and our awakening will also be hers. We are the cause of many terrible crises facing the biosphere but we are also the creatures that make music, poetry and paintings, that tell jokes and fall in love, study nature, play games, build rockets, care for the weak and read children bedtime stories. We must acknowledge and work on our darkness but must also see and celebrate our light, or else we will fail to unify enough to implement the powerful solutions which already exist, needing only mass public awareness to do their magic. We belong here, just as all Earthlings do – we need only find wisdom's balance. We are Mother Nature's sons and daughters and it's time we came home to our senses, to embrace and give gratitude to our beautiful living planet.

P.S. Here's the poem I couldn't quite remember during the podcast: "Our Home In The Stars"

Through window skies, crystal clear

should a far, lonesome traveller peer,

everyoung Nature will fill their eyes

in sweet, swaying light, dancing alone

No warmer welcome, no kinder prize,

our home in the stars, our garden stone.

Deep forgotten wells of stardust swell

into her flawless, flourishing flirt;

Love – the flower of life itself,

flowing wild woven clothes for her

She is the laugh and sigh and smile

of the slumbering Oneness, a precious sunlit isle,

and we are her dance amongst the stars,

to bloom and be the dreams we find afar

Tune in as I psychically connect with my twin brother Mark via various hilarious and generally flamboyant esoteric magical practices long ago encoded into our DNA and higher-dimensional astral skeletons. We discuss truth-seeking and the joys of seeing life as a journey of spiritual education; also the ways in which black magic aspersions such as 'conspiracy theorist' are often cast upon those who ask uncomfortable questions, whether it be by an individual seeking to explain away spooky contradictions or by a status quo attempting to defend against public consciousness-expansion; as well as the nature of 'spirituality' and what it means to be authentic, peaceful and as wise as a talking monkey can be! Here cometh shenanigans . . .

In this episode we look at what 'free speech' is and why it is so important. The freedom to say what one wishes (so long as it doesn't violate the non-aggression principle) is the most fundamental of human rights, because it is the mechanism by which all rights are decided. This most precious power is not only enjoyable and useful for collective problem-solving, but even necessary for the survival of civilisation and the sacred homecoming of human enlightenment. Censorship of 'bad ideas' is itself perhaps the worst idea of all; whereas the trust that truth percolates to the top if we allow an open conversation? That's genius.

Universal Divine Consciousness: REACH OUT WITH YOUR FEELINGS

In this episode I talk about why 'being yourself' is a really good idea! More than a cliché, this is timeless wisdom that will elevate one's existence if taken sillily (or seriously). I discuss the various levels and meanings of 'being yourself' and how I think we can live more joyfully and authentically, connecting with ourselves and others by dropping the masks and sharing our true self (or selves) with the world.

One small step for me, a giant leap for hyperbole! This is my first ever podcast episode and I talk about my reasons for starting this project - and why YOU too could (maybe even should) lean into that glowing golden dream floating about elusively in the back of your mind - or if you don't have a dream, then just to take some humble step toward a life you would prefer to live. I discuss some reasons why we should even bother with starting new things and also do my best to show why we shouldn't believe in the various reasons our minds find to hold us back.

There are 80 million people worldwide who claim some Irish descent, with 3 million being Irish-born emigrants, their children and grandchildren. This group of 3 million are legally recognised Irish citizens and tend to share quite closely the sociocultural norms of Ireland. The majority of these people also left Ireland with great reluctance due to the hardships of various oppressions (imperial, fundamentalist, bureaucratic) and the spiritual and material poverty such pressures engendered in the Irish population. Most left to escape injustice, to find a fairer field over the sea; but except for the born adventurers, these Irish folk left with a sorrowful heart for farewelling the people, places and perspectives of their homeland. In a poetic twist very fitting for the Irish, there is a chance now that these long-lost sons and daughters of Éire may in a way come back over the seas to her aid in an hour of great need. Irish liberty, sovereignty and even ethno-cultural existence are being attacked by forces who have the nerve to claim to be doing it for virtue, justice and enlightened perspective. The Irish diaspora cannot vote in Irish elections (one must be a resident) but our kin across the seas can send in the cavalry with financial support for patriotic candidates and parties, with media campaigns raising awareness in their countries of the plight of the Irish people, and by sharing inspiration and information on social media and Irish radio, offering the clarity of their more distant eye to help Ireland see how the big picture looks zoomed out. It will be much more difficult for the Irish government to slander the diaspora as 'far-right' and demonise citizens of foreign countries, and this may encourage resident Irish to stand. If even a tenth of the Gaelic millions abroad decide Ireland is too beautiful to be betrayed again after all we've been through, and we put our foot down to declare that this time the Irish will see the end of tyranny and taste the sweet fruit of freedom's victory . . . imagine! This will happen, if we let it. May the prodigal son return. Céad míle fáilte to the Diaspora!

Universal Divine Consciousness: REACH OUT WITH YOUR FEELINGS

It's human nature to look forward and try to master the future, to better our lives. But it is crucial that we balance this with a primary focus on the Now, and in particular on enjoying this present moment as full and enough; to strive ultimately only to be a good person today and let tomorrow be the duty of tomorrow's self. We think ahead and act diligently, but we ground this is the relaxation and inner peace of knowing that we are where we should be; that in the ultimate sense Life is where it should be, society where it should be. It's all on the road to Destiny. We can understand it is more about the journey than the destination, and that the purpose of love, truth, justice, peace and freedom is at its heart to express and experience these, even (perhaps necessarily) amidst their opposites. This is how we learn. Such a 'zen' perspective is beneficial for our spiritual well-being, but also for the practical achievement of our goals. Today, liberty and national sovereignty dangle by a thread while tyrants hold sharp scissors; more than ever, we must orient our ways wisely to the utmost.

Universal Divine Consciousness: REACH OUT WITH YOUR FEELINGS

We tend to get what we anticipate. Thus it is essential that we devote our hearts to a faith that Love will triumph over illusion, fear, separation, conflict and evil. We need not have evidence of this destiny – in fact that's what makes it faith in love and something specially precious in the human condition – but merely the understanding that whether we end up winning or losing the battle for Love's triumph, by believing we will win we thereby gain the ability to give our best and avail of our full potential in making the fight as best we can. I believe by tapping into such faith and trust in Nature and Cosmos, that Love will indeed be victorious over the totalitarian forces currently circling the free peoples of Earth, but even if the cynic is right and we end up losing, at least we will have made a closer fight of it than if we hadn't believed, and we can be proud of that, as can our ancestors, descendants, and Love itself. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain by simply assuming that we will triumph in the end, and justice will be done. Let's get to it, doing whatever it takes.

Notice the exclamation marks. This is extremely serious. As serious as it gets. You may or may not have noticed, powerful leaders in the USA and Europe are increasingly beating the drums of war against Russia. This would very likely mean nuclear war, as Russia's arsenal is greater than America's and they would not be able to compete in a traditional war. In this episode I do my best to make us remember how beautiful, vital and fragile peace is, and why we must all take a good look in the mirror and ask if we can do more to bring inner peace – this being the fundamental condition for outer peace in the world – and to influence the tide of opinion around us to insisting upon peace among nations. Because America's pushing for WW3 while pretending to seek peace has naturally seen an increased aggression in Russia's rhetoric, bringing Earth closer to armageddon than it has been since JFK miraculously resolved the Cuban Missile Crisis back in 1962. We must act. Alongside the Ukraine crisis, we have the crises in Israel-Palestine and potentially Taiwan; these make the need for peace and diplomacy globally all the more urgent to re-establish. Events now have the ability to spiral beyond the point of no return faster than you would find out about it even by Twitter. We absolutely MUST calm things down, if not for our own jaded and often fatalistic selves then for the innocent children who need grownups.

Even if Russia had started the war in Ukraine, nuclear apocalypse would not be justified. Two wrongs don't make a right, and deleting civilisation only serves injustice to everyone. Even then, if Russia were to blame, diplomacy and compromise would be the answer. But I here explain in detail why in fact it was the USA who began the war; we could say either in 2014 with their overthrow of Ukraine's democratically elected government, or after the fall of the Berlin Wall, when NATO promised not to move one inch eastward – a promise they then broke, time and again, doing all they could to make Russia into an 'other' and enemy. We citizens of the West must have empathy and the ability to question our own narratives in service to peace, and above all we must find the peace and forgiveness within to cool our emotions and reconnect to reason, to love, to humanity – and then act in whatever way we can to steer the course of history away from the rocks of collective psychosis, to love's light. Meditate. Educate yourself on the conflict (RFK Jr.'s podcast has several episodes on this, as does Dave Smith's "Part of the Problem" podcast) and share this with everyone you can, from friends and family to colleagues and strangers who might happen to mention Russia. Call or write your democratic representatives and the unelected bureaucrats. Email local journalists and ask them to write stories advocating peace and/or exposing the true history of the Ukraine conflict. Anything you can do, please do it now. Our children thank you.

Dear friends and strangers, I am running for election to Dáil Éireann, and need your help. Freedom, peace and truth are all under increasingly violent assault by those claiming to protect them, and I believe in my bones that I have the character, skills, knowledge, and consciousness to defend them – if enough people like yourself choose to believe in me. My core policies are Free Speech, Fair Borders, and Full Sovereignty. Is that so much to ask? Go to https://www.gaelicawakening.ie to learn more about me and my vision for Ireland.

The status quo is rotten, and has been degenerating for some time, while Ireland has slept. The creeping bureaucracy, Bankster Bailouts, War On Terror, Covid Lockdowns, cultural Marxism of identity politics, WWIII-mongering, Hate Speech Bill, WHO Pandemic Treaty, EU Migration Pact, mass illegal immigration, and the corruption of mainstream media now operating as a propaganda wing of the Irish government – itself looking a lot like a front organisation for the power of transnational corporations and their NGO spinoffs. The whole thing is sordid, deceitful, unhealthy and unsustainable. We need love. We need freedom, peace and truth. We need normal people to sacrifice time, energy and reputation to stand up and step forward to serve this beautiful country – Ireland – marshalling our democratic people power to simply say "enough" to the genuine Far Right which is the divisive and aggressive Dublin government in its marriage to massive corporations and foreign powers like the WEF. Together, united around a clear vision of strong intellectual and moral foundation, the most conscious segment of Irish society can chart a course back to balance, back to centre, where we can dwell happily in Irishry as our ancestors intended.

This campaign will certainly raise awareness and stimulate debate; but if enough like you join me with your passion, we can bring a true force of cleansing reform into Dàil Éireann, where I will be honoured to loudly raise every awkward question career politicians avoid. There are ways to phrase things politely but with incredible directness so that ignoring the question becomes impossible, as it would make the wrongdoer look ridiculous or corrupt, and so they lose their insulation from public awareness and must adjust their expectations.

Longer-term the goal would be to gain the balance of power and enter into coalition with a larger party, requiring adherence to freedom, peace and truth in all matters of governance.

You can help me by becoming a member (for free) of my political party, Gaelic Awakening (https://www.gaelicawakening.ie); by voting for me if you live in the constituency of Dublin Bay North; telling others about me or sharing my podcast and social media posts; donating to my campaign (even the price of a cup of coffee is enough); running in your local area as a Gaelic Awakening candidate; and above all by simply reading the content on my website and thinking through the questions and potential answers our time and place is calling the virtuous to grapple with and overcome, giving ourselves to the cause of Ireland and of love. Complacency, cynicism, despair and fear haven't worked yet to do anything for humanity and it remains true that only calm and courageous consciousness will bring beauty's fruit.
