  • Skáldskapr: Finding Spiritual commonality.
    Today I’d like to take some time to consider the commonalities among all theological beliefs, stemming from the very beginning of humankind. We must be willing to set aside our bravado and ego, and allow the heart to soften. Opening our heart exposes one to a world of unity and understanding that some may never know. But first, let us take a minute to push away our thoughts of a demonstrated practice, journey beyond those demands of obedience and assimilation, to that of the underlying doctrine. The understanding of a group of figures we’ll call “the deities”. Our god, or gods. Our finite understanding of an infinite being, and our relationship with him/her/them. Come with me now, and let us explore together the path of unity.

  • Skáldskapr: Understanding the scope of Spirituality.
    In today's episode I put the pieces together for us as to how the physical and spiritual self by obtaining a better understanding of our mental control, as well as our physical makeup that makes us what we are. Better understanding gives us better control.

  • Skáldskapr: Embracing our individual Spirituality
    Many people have come to me and inquired that their interpretation of spirituality was so different than mine, how do I reconcile them? The question that immediately comes to mind is I wonder why I have any need to. Herein lies the true understanding of spirituality, everyone interprets it differently, and that’s ok. Today I’d like to speak to the perceived necessity of reconciling our beliefs under a common flag of inclusion, and the impracticality of that process from a fundamental level. Spirituality should be in absolute parallel with us as physical human beings. Today, we’ll look at some key indicators that we all need to focus on, as we embrace our own spirituality, instead of constantly searching for reasons of division and segregation.

  • Skáldskapr: Empathetic Vision
    This week I’d like to discuss our life’s work, obtaining Empathy. We’ve discussed on many of our previous discussions how our intrinsic chemistry, driven by the underlying genetic code, creates what our minds interpret as feelings. These feelings are stored in the memory of our physical mind, with related memories associated to it, that can become ingrained into our psyche over time. The key to understanding this cycle and breaking free from those memories of feelings is to address them head on, and dilute the “relationships” that these memories use to associate with other memories within the mind.

  • Skáldskapr: Our Aura and our spiritual health.
    As we may be aware, our spiritual health pivots around the inter connectivity from the physical body, through our personal aura, to the spiritual realm. So, one must begin this discussion with the elephant in the room, what exactly is our aura? The aura is a projection of our soul, if you will. It communicates our emotional state, our spiritual beliefs, our ancestral ties, as well as our physical and mental health. The aura is controlled by a multitude of factors that we must be cognizant of whenever projecting our desires to the universe. The aura of each individual extends in every direction from there being, and seeks out other auras at which to interact with. Each aura is representation of the chemical/emotional state of the individual.

  • Skáldskapr: The vastness of infinity.
    When considering the size, or breadth of an entity that is an infinite being, we need to deeply consider what exactly does that mean? While we can get a glimpse of what infinity would look like by looking out into space, how would we conceptualize that vastness of an infinite entity. Today, I’d like to take a minute and discuss the impossibility of man’s futile, limited, mind to possibly comprehend a being of “infinity”. At the risk of needing to shrink down to molecular level, then look up to see if the NBA’s finest standing before us. His legs alone would disappear beyond a vanishing point. This drives the question, could we be small enough to look upon a deity’s form, only to recognize it as the vastness of space?

  • Skáldskapr: Understanding the balance of life.
    I’d like to encompass several different belief systems, to arrive at a understanding of what the “balance of life” is.

    In speaking with my shaman colleagues, I have connected their beliefs to what I know are my beliefs about the spirits around us. Many of my listeners and readers have asked what this balance is. We have all heard the memes across the internet speak of this “balance” we need to have to find our peace in this life. Today I would like to share some of my experiences that may help you to find your balance in this physical life time.

  • Skáldskapr: Sanity in the modern World
    I’d like to take a few minutes to respond to those who would say “I am crazy” for expressing a deeper understanding of the world around me. Possibly for expressing the concept that their beliefs are but “one interpretation”, and ensuring that they know that I fully understand that there are thousands of different interpretations and that they are all accurate. For I have been instructed by the landvætti to see the divine communications for what it truly is.
