My Story
Who I am
I was born in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains in the eastern United States. I grew up poor and was raised by a single mother. At 18 I went off to college where I majored in Philosophy and graduated with honors. After graduating I went to law school, and was a practicing attorney for ten years before entering into full time spiritual vocation in January 2022.
These are the outward biographical facts of my life, which makeup my social identity. But the most important thing to know about me is that I am a lover of god in all of the creator’s infinite and varied expressions and forms.
In 2011, soon after passing the bar and beginning my legal career, I had a kundalini awakening that has forever changed the trajectory of my life. One day while sitting at my desk I happened upon a mainstream article on quantum physics that postulated consciousness is integral to matter and not emergent. Or in other words, that the universe is a great thought rather than a great clock and that our separateness is an illusion. This gave me intellectual permission in that moment to believe that all is one, and I looked at my secretary at the time and thought to myself, “You too are me.”
Making that affirmation and believing it was enough to open my heart wide open for the first time in my life. After a lifetime of lovelessness and separation, I felt boundless love and connected to all beings. I felt energy running throughout my body and down my spine like bolts of lightening made of bliss, and my sense of self vanished.
For several weeks I was awash in this egoless state of bliss and love. I barely ate. I barely slept. I wept that the grass had to bend beneath my feet.
Then after several weeks my ego, that little sense of being separate, slowly started to reassert itself, though now about 80% reduced from its original stature. It didn’t take long for that little voice in my head to start wondering what had just happened to me.
I have spent the intervening years studying the perennial wisdom tradition of the world’s religions, while deepening and expanding my initial awakening through the tantric path of Kriya yoga and shamanic practices. I have come to call this path The Infinite Way.
Though I am not a perfect being, spirit has moved me to share whatever wisdom and grace I have been given with others. In an effort to heed that call I offer myself in service to the healing and evolution of others for the good of all.
