7/17/17: Buddha’s Brain
Welcome to The Harmonic Concordance Blog. It is a unique clearinghouse serving the large and ever growing “Spiritual But Not Religious” (SBNR) collective. The Blog now hosts a select and diverse group of more than fifty “Voices,” gathered in a Community of Spirit, who are willing to share some of the insights and knowledge gained from their own Spiritual Quests. These observations, presented here ad free and in service to that Quest, offer each Voice’s particular contributions towards enhancing our “Spiritual Literacy.”

This week, Rick Hanson and Rick Mendius tell us that the intersection and integration of psychology,
neurology, and contemplation – is the “heartwood” of personal well-being and spiritual
growth and suggest that the movement of Buddhism into the West has created an
historically unprecedented opportunity for it to inform science, and vice versa.

Conversations with Spirit
Universally speaking, the first and last key in this Quest is, as the ancient Delphic Oracle tells us, “Man, know thyself.” Beyond that admonition, the Oracle adds, “… for to know thyself is to know the Gods.” Indeed, there are almost as many methods for the cultivation and practice of this Self-knowledge as there are individuals.
These Conversations with Spirit represent that which speaks to and for each of our Voices. Their essays can be found archived on our Blog, by Author or Theme. Additionally, a newly featured “Conversation” is introduced here on this Featured Page each Monday morning.
We hope you enjoy and benefit from your stay at the Blog. Please do feel free to join our conversations by leaving us your comments, thoughts, or questions on our facebook page or at Twitter. All input is appreciated, as is your willingness to share any of these “Conversations.”
About The Harmonic Concordance
The sacred geometry and astrological patterns of the Harmonic Concordance moment/event depict the Spiritually activated HU-man Being operating at the Center of all Creation. This enduring stellar message is a both a carrot and a prod: the more we accept and activate our own partnership with the Spirit that animates the All That Is, the more clearly we will see that we ourselves are the Creators of this daily 3-D experience.
