Jai Guru Deva.


We just wanted to remind you that you currently have two opportunities to spend some quality time with Thom at his upcoming retreats in Sedona, Arizona, from May 22-26, and Gerringong, Australlia from June 25-29.


These retreats are your chance to get away to rexperience deep rest, industrial-strength stress release, quality company, and higher states of consciousness.


Most importantly, you'll have close-up access to Thom at his famous lectures and Q&A sessions.


Whether you are troubled by the changes the world is experiencing right now, or simply looking to fast-track your evolution, quality time with Thom is the ideal opportunity to tap into the wisdom you need at this time.



Thom looks forward to seeing you in Sedona or Gerringong!

There’s no shortage of options for people “researching” chemical shortcuts to spiritual experiences. 


While psychedelic drugs such as LSD, or hallucinogens such as ayahuasca, frequently have enough of an impact to arouse curiosity and experimentation, they don’t offer reliable, repeatable experiences, let alone still allow one to function reliably in day-to-day life.


This is because they are mistaking biochemistry as being a cause of spiritual experiences rather than an effect of spiritual experience. As Thom frequently reminds us, consciousness, conceives, governs, constructs and prints out the body, not the other way around.


In this episode Thom describes the function and origin of Soma, the ultimate celestial biochemical.


Importantly, Thom makes the distinction between it being an effect of consciousness, rather than a cause of spiritual experiences. 


He lays out the simple steps we can take to switch on our own Soma plant, and to enable spiritual experiences far more profound than those offered by artificial means, while still remaining relevant to those around us.
