Surfing is so much more than surfing.

As I examine why surfing is such a therapeutic activity…I realize that surfing (especially waves of consequence) inspires the surfer to be committed to the moment, or nasty things happen. Nearly everything we think is real is complete fantasy…a fixation on frames of reference taken out of context…apart from reality as it ACTUALLY unfolds.

This moment…what is happening right NOW and the WAY you are BEING right NOW is real.

All programming rips the intended target (you) from the moment. Separation is the lynchpin that creates slavery…turning YOU from a creator into a commodity. And as an enslaved person, you will SUFFER. I am currently teaching a course in navigating this dilemma.

Everyone and their dog (literally) are out in the line-up when the waves are small. With a slight swell and a vast crowd, it’s easy to get what we call “wave-hungry.” When the line-up is wave hungry is when people get ugly. That’s one of the reasons I enjoy big wave surfing so much more than small wave surfing. Size in the ocean weeds out the crowd in a hurry.

When it’s critical…when there is serious consequence for failure…the respect in the line-up goes up dramatically. In big wave surfing…the percentage of high-character people in the line-up is in stark contrast to the ratio on small days.  You say you want to change the world? You’d like to make a difference? It all starts by figuring yourself out and getting WITH IT.

Very few people understand the concept of Self Actualization. Actualization has everything to do with relating to life as it ACTUALLY happens. We are either in accord with life…right here, right now…accepting it on its terms and conditions…rather than wishing we could bend it to suit our lower-tiered desires…or we are off to never-never land fixated on happy horseshit where we imprison ourselves in fortresses of fantasy. Life unfolds ONE way…an ACTUAL way…and it is indifferent to your commitment to moping, complaining, or wailing away. Let the dead bury the dead. AND GET WITH IT!

In this episode, Sean discusses Gravitas - hence the title of the episode. Mass creates a gravitational pull, bringing others into the sphere of influence - GRAVITAS. Relationships are the key to relevance. Relevance is the key to influence. The world needs authentic leaders that can discern between shit and Shinola now, more than ever.

These past three to four months have brought such brutal pain into Sean's sphere of awareness. First, the back injury; then, the Shingles; then heartbreak; then a brutal sickness while traveling across the world all alone on a mission to serve a sick family member. The Philosopher’s Stone is the Alchemist’s capacity to deal with life’s bullshit and suffering with grace…while SHINING!

The Tree of Knowledge referred to in Genesis would more appropriately be called the Tree of Good and Bad…that experience is good/that one is bad. That feeling is good/that one is bad. The Tree of Creation lifts the initiate out of the Happy Horseshit narrative of good and bad and allows the Creator to transcend the low-life desires for things to be good…in favor of allegiance to the Big Mission. The world has never needed you more to rise out of the mindless muck and mire of the Matrix and Get With It!

The devil is pure effort. The devil is in the details. The devil is in the details of how you go about strategically implementing the plan. The will to follow the game plan no matter what the fuck gets in the way is the devil. So we must find that power, that pure power, and we must embrace the devil inside if we truly wish to create.

The suffering from a broken heart is as painful as anything we can experience. And anyone that loves with all their might will inevitably come face to face with heartbreak. So then what? Do we cry out for MERCY? Or let the heart be torn to shreds and yell FREEDOM! 

Heartache is simply an unwillingness to grow at the rate that our destiny develops. Suffering comes from the abrasions of being dragged along by the things we don’t want to change or wish weren’t changing. We can get thrashed along a rocky road for miles or jump in the chariot and follow life as it unfolds. Everything around us goes its own way. The savvy traveler notices and follows the path as it reveals itself moment by moment.
