Men's Inner Experience
I’m shifting my focus to prioritize on men and especially their inner experience, the part that’s largely invisible. It’s not well seen in the public sphere and social conditioning has meant that most men have not seen that a fierce pride in themselves is legitimate.
I’ll still write about conscious awakening and the spiritual battle for the hearts and minds of people because that’s the story of our time. However, I’ll do it from the perspective of men because men’s traditional strengths as fighters for the protection of family and community are vital in it.
Guest contributions from men and women will in here as well, lending their perspectives.
Men aren’t separate from women or from the world. We’re both necessary. This is so true as to not need saying, yet in our world, it’s often missed (not by my readers of course.)
The core strength of individual men is needed in the world and individual men need it in themselves. Public social bickering between the sexes is preposterously out of place in our current social situation. It’s like tossing the deck chairs on the Titanic overboard. Or like going below deck and taking hammers to the engine.
Men’s pride is not far below the surface. But the uncomfortable truth is, it usually is below the surface. Men have adapted to intense but unconscious social pressure over generations.
The way forward I advocate is exploration of inner experience with other men.
Live Sessions to Explore Inner Experience
I’m offering that inner exploration in weekly zoom sessions. (These are free for now but will later be behind a subscriber paywall for those who can afford it.) The sessions are intense and challenging and not for the faint of heart. For the bulk of the time men will be paired up in a breakout room. Each will have timed periods with the prompt, “Tell me your inner experience as a man.” The next place and time is on zoom at 3:30pm, this Sunday, March 24. The time between 3:30 and 4:00 is for instruction and then those who choose will continue for an hour. Men can opt to leave before 4pm Eastern. That’s a good option and there’s no shame in doing so.
Men can register here. (We’ll have mutual events that will engage woman supporters at a later date.
It’s a step forward for me to move from analysis to this more direct engagment with dyad sessions. I’ve been doing the the above dyad (pairs) process with men and women for some time and more recently with men only. I’m excited by the possibilities.
