Hi James, loved the whole essay and yes, I also attended a week-long intensive with Dr. JOE. I found myself totally aligned with your experience although I left the night before it ended and caught a red-eye home to NY from Vancouver because I got what I needed. I AM ENOUGh. Grateful for his amazing wisdom but I fell back into my own as well.
I've done Ayahuasca, fungi, ketamine only to be shown it's all within. The hero's journey always leads one back home.
Love your Neville work. Always fun to discipline and focus our imagination. The secret, for me at least, is deciding what REALLY is important TO imagine.
As for me, my educating sojourns have led me to believe my highest imagining is seeing and feeling myself as unfettered, walking unencumbered and in my own sovereignty.
James…. I’m the DJ white Hat 🤍 volunteer that was tracking you down to thank you for your gift to humanity/good morning legend podcast . No wonder we couldn’t find you… switching colors.
What you describe … this resistance is absolutely normal and soooo frustrating. It doesn’t feel mystical in the least but can be charted. I urge you to attend an advanced follow up . DJ goes deep and fast and it’s like college compared to the elementary week long starter retreat.
I’m thrilled I did finally entangle with you . True to form , you grenerously reflected legendary character and sincere curiosity.
Hi James.. I remember your plans to go and encouraging others. I’m glad there were some compatriots there. What a wonderful story and journey. The drawings are amazing. Are they yours? With your beautiful writing, I appreciated the peek into your world and lessons learned from the retreat. Good takeaways there — thank you.
Beautifully written piece. Have read it a few times, reading once, reflecting on it, then going back one more time. It is unreal how much you can resonate with close souls, doesn't matter you see each other every day or talk to each other once a decade.
#1, yes! It has to be a book by itself. This is so important. There are and will always be infinite other pathways. This one tentacle of the grand consciousness will know about and carve out the groove of this one out of all other possible ones. It is not limiting; it is, weirdly, beautiful.
#4, what I had (been) before and now forgotten? Being unreasonable with meaningful goals i.e., those coming also from the heart. I am not talking about delusion. There have been many things in my life that I achieved that, in a realistic sense, shouldn't have happened. But they did, because I was unreasonable, and the corresponding vibration brought them to me in not so imaginable ways. I think that is the genuine masculine energy: you just decide/choose to have 'it'. Other ways of saying it would be living from the accomplished state, choosing without an essence of doubt, living from chapter two while in chapter one, wishes fulfilled state. This, I am getting back to it right now. The only difference now is that I know more, I am wiser, and consequently it can go much more enjoyable and harmonious and lighter while it doesn't even matter when or if or how.
Again, thanks for this beautiful piece. I will need to get back to it a few more times.
Hi James - Thanks for sharing your experience! I've been contemplating attending a JD retreat and am truly on the fence. Remembering to trust my own intuition and knowing that everything is already within me is a perfect message this morning. Next time please consider writing from your own perspective instead of relying on AI to put the words together for you. I would love to hear James' words unaltered by AI. 💙
