Life and Society

Going beyond regular common sense, family belief systems, and society values, and getting in touch with your own unique spiritual nature. The personal acknowledgment and exploration of everything that is individual and unique to you. The dissonance that external societal values can have with this inner nature, and how they can/could/would better work to reflect it.

The Shift in Awareness: Life Expectancy and Aging

The spiritual changes and shifts gradually taking place on Earth can be spotted in a number of factors across our society. Some are louder and more evident; some are tumultuous and distressing; while others may be a little more subtle and nuanced, taking place more slowly and gently, in ways that may evade the onlooking observer. I’d like to talk (…)

Spirituality is free; teaching it isn’t.

Is Being Mean to Others Part of “Being True to Myself”?

Posted by Nuno on 09.07.22 under Life and Society, Spiritual Awakening.

I’ve often described spirituality as the personal process of always being true to yourself, or at least involving this to a large extent. However, in the process of trying to be genuine and respect your feelings, you may at points find yourself at odds with your own anger, resentment, frustration, etc. These emotions can be strong, powerful, intense, and may (…)

When Your Family is not Your Family: Understanding the Spiritual Hostage

Posted by Nuno on 07.06.22 under Akashic Records, Life and Society, Metaphysics (General).

Sometimes you’re born into a family you don’t share a connection with, this going deeper than simply the child liking their parents more or less: you don’t relate to them on a fundamental level. Being raised in these circumstances can result in various emotional states for the adult which can be challenging and difficult to overcome.

The Energy of Whole(some)

Posted by Nuno on 14.08.21 under Life and Society.

Wholesome. A ubiquitous term referring to kind gestures and “feel good” energy, more specifically acts of a benevolent nature enacted altruistically, spontaneously, and without an agenda. They may sometimes be called “acts of random kindness”. When you witness something “wholesome” you get this fuzzy feeling, It’s a type of kindness that is captivating, contagious even.

Happy Not-Christmas!

Posted by Nuno on 22.12.19 under Life and Society.

The Winter solstice, the day of the year with the least amount of daylight, had always been celebrated by many cultures of the globe. It marks a transition in seasons and the beginning of Winter. You would gather, celebrate, provide offerings, and ask for blessings and abundance to endure the harder parts of the year. It would also be seen as a moment of regeneration, appreciation, and spiritual introspection as well.

Social Media and Disconnection

Posted by Nuno on 24.12.18 under Life and Society.

In a relatively short period of time, social media rose and took center stage in our lives. Information of all kinds goes through, and is spread, across social media platforms. I consider social media, and the Internet in general, brought things that to my understanding are positive. This ties mostly with how we’re connecting as a collective. Information travels extremely (…)

On the Biological Race to Have Children, Part III: Cultural Worth

Posted by Nuno on 21.08.18 under Life and Society.

At various points during his/her lifetime, the human being will be assessing potential romantic partners. He/she will do so as he/she seeks the experiences of love, protection, belonging, well-being, and the sharing of positive experience with another, as well as, potentially, eventually, having children together. This assessment takes place under a strong influence of the biological overlay.

On the Biological Race to Have Children, Part I: the Biology Overlay

Posted by Nuno on 30.09.17 under Life and Society.

The following text is the first of a series of three. It may be revised further. One of the major types of spiritual plan made by those incarnating on Earth involves the goal, or mission if you will, of having children during their lifetimes. The life choice, or even spiritual intention, of having children, is by no means a “higher” (…)

The (true) Dark Side

Posted by Nuno on 05.12.15 under Life and Society.

The Dark Side is not a mysterious, “special” energy, in the sense of few people being able to see or touch it. It is not an exception – it’s not even infrequent. Everyone has a Dark Side. It is common, widespread. The Dark Side is a force of separation and unbalance. It is synonym with “ego”. When acted upon, it desires only to take away from (…)

‘The Martian’ Review: How This Movie Is Different

Posted by Nuno on 06.10.15 under Life and Society.

As I went to watch ‘The Martian’ I noticed a number of significant differences between this movie and many others made today. This won’t be a typical “critic review”, instead it’s an analysis from my personal perspective. Some of the information can be considered SPOILERS. You’ve been warned. The Martian is a story about a manned NASA mission to Mars (…)

A Journey of Meaning

Posted by Nuno on 25.07.15 under Life and Society.

My goal in life was never to attend college. I did attend. I did go through it, and graduate. At 18, I didn’t have any specific ideas, passions, or definitive interests, regarding the path I wanted to take. Life wasn’t just going to stand still, on hold, waiting for me to come up with alternatives out of the blue, at (…)

Time of Rest Must be Proportional to Time of Work

Posted by Nuno on 01.03.15 under Life and Society.

When I was in college, on one particular semester I was able to arrange my weeks into 4 days of classes and 3 days of weekend. This was the best work/rest ratio experience I had at the time. Later in life, when I left my conventional career and became responsible for managing my own time, this one situation represented the (…)

Release Yourself From Social Constraints and Enjoy Your Life

Posted by Nuno on 13.02.15 under Life and Society.

Don’t worry if you don’t have a valentine, a romantic pair (today is the day before Valentine’s day). If you aren’t in a relationship. To desire a true connection from the heart with another person, and be truly embraced in a mutual and deep love and understanding of each other, this is a natural thing for anyone to desire. But (…)

What “Love Yourself First” Means

Posted by Nuno on 17.01.15 under Life and Society.

To love yourself means to be in touch with how you feel, and then acting in a way that respects it. To love yourself is not necessarily an emotion. It doesn’t obligatory mean you sit down and try to experience warm fuzzy feelings about yourself. It’s (also) about choice. Let’s say there’s a corporate dinner being hosted by the company you work for. And let’s say (…)
