John introduces the foundational figures in the contemporary practice of Ho'oponopono, including Morrnah Simeona, who re-envisioned the method in the 1970s to help individuals address internal issues such as trauma and grief. He also discusses Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len, whose application of the practice in a clinical setting brought remarkable healing stories that captivate the imagination.

Central to the episode is John's explanation of how Ho'oponopono works metaphysically and psychologically by employing four simple phrases: "I'm sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you, I love you." When used with intention, these words are directed at one's higher self, clearing emotional blockages through a deep connection with the divine. John emphasizes the practice's capacity to foster profound internal harmony and self-love, essential for personal growth and healing.

Listeners are guided through the practical application of Ho'oponopono, learning to use these phrases in moments of distress and as a continual practice for maintaining emotional equilibrium. Through stories and insights, John illustrates the powerful effects of Ho'oponopono, making this episode a valuable resource for anyone seeking to enhance their spiritual toolkit and achieve a more peaceful, balanced life.

John respectfully navigates the delicate terrain of original sin, a topic central to Christianity, and expands the discussion to encompass a broader, more inclusive understanding of sin. He shares his personal journey of grappling with the concept of original sin, recounting his upbringing in a religious household and the early inklings of discord between dogmatic teachings and his spiritual intuitions.

By distinguishing between the esoteric and exoteric aspects of religious teachings, John illuminates the inner mysteries that often remain unspoken in mainstream religious discourse. He critiques the weaponization of the concept of sin by institutional powers, advocating for a return to the original meanings of words used to describe sin in biblical texts — "missing the mark" rather than moral transgression.

John's reflections are deeply rooted in mysticism, drawing parallels between spiritual traditions and scientific understandings of the universe. He posits that we are all emanations of a divine source, suggesting that the actual "original sin" may be the mistaken belief in our separation from this divinity. Through this lens, John invites listeners to reconsider their understanding of sin, not as a mark of shame but as an opportunity for spiritual growth and reconnection with the divine essence within.

This episode calls for spiritual awakening, encouraging listeners to question, explore, and embrace a more mystically informed perspective on sin, salvation, and the divine.

      1. You feel you'll never be able to truly love yourself 

      2. You can never be able to fully love yourself if you don't accept all aspects of yourself. 

      3. You're confused about what real love is 

      
      

      In this episode you will learn: 

      1. The definition of love as complete acceptance, and how this can be applied to self love and to love for others. 

      2. The difference between love and hate, and how hate is often based on dehumanization.

      "When you have self acceptance, when you have self love, what you have, what you get out of that is you get a sense of discrimination about your motivations for doing certain things."

      
      

      I was raised hearing a lot of hateful rhetoric. Things like "What is wrong with you?" or "You're not as human as I am." I never wanted to use words like that. To me, love is complete acceptance. And hatred is complete rejection. I try to practice love in my everyday life, but sometimes it's hard. Especially when I see the hate that's happening in the world. There's a movement right now that's trying to program empathy out of people. And I think it's because they want to be able to treat others as less than human. This is a dangerous thing, and I hope that more people can learn to love instead of hate.

      In this episode, you will learn the following:

      1. The definition of love as complete acceptance and how this can be applied to self-love and to love for others.

      2. The difference between love and hate and how hate is often based on dehumanization.

      3. The dangers of propaganda and how it can be used to promote hatred and bigotry.

      Chapter Summaries:

      [00:00:28] - John Moore is a shamanic practitioner and spiritual teacher. He is going to talk about love from a spiritual perspective. As someone who practices shamanism today, john usually defines his terms when he's talking about something, and he doesn't try to impose his definitions on others.

      
      

      [00:02:19] - One definition of love is complete acceptance. Self-love is a form of self-acceptance. It's not motivated by hatred or self-loathing. It's motivated by accepting yourself and not beating yourself up. There is a fine line between external validation and conditional love. We don't have to be in a specific relationship to love somebody. I can love someone I'm no longer in a relationship with because the relationship was unhealthy. But that doesn't mean I don't love them.

      
      

      [00:12:02] - Shamanism is about exploring the core of who we are and the connection that we have to divinity, to spirit, and to everything in the universe. When my daughter was four, I said something to her that I had told myself for years I would never say to my children. Now, if I ever use that phrase again, I want people to call me on it.

      
      

      [00:16:52] - Hate is the opposite of love. It's the rejection of the person based on some perceived quality. A movement in the US is trying to program empathy out of people. This is coming from a religious organization that is politically active and gives money to politicians. In the political rhetoric in the United States, people talk about globalism, the global elite, etc. These are white supremacist dog whistles for Jews. Neonazi talking points here. This is all part of this antiJewish conspiracy theory. It's all a part of spreading hatred by making a threat that doesn't exist.

      
      

      [00:33:13] - Patriarchy has nothing to do with the divine masculine. Patriarchy is all about putting one guy in charge. Shamanism is egalitarian, and there's no hierarchy. As a shamanic practitioner, I view myself as a servant. I'm not taking orders from people.

      [00:43:44] - The final frontier for us spiritually is to...]]>Are you dealing with any of this?

We don't have to be in a specific relationship to love somebody. I can love someone I'm no longer in a relationship with because the relationship was unhealthy. But that doesn't mean I don't love them.

      
      

      [00:12:02] - Shamanism is about exploring the core of who we are and the connection that we have to divinity, to spirit, and to everything in the universe. When my daughter was four, I said something to her that I had told myself for years I would never say to my children. Now, if I ever use that phrase again, I want people to call me on it.

      
      

      [00:16:52] - Hate is the opposite of love. It's the rejection of the person based on some perceived quality. A movement in the US is trying to program empathy out of people. This is coming from a religious organization that is politically active and gives money to politicians. In the political rhetoric in the United States, people talk about globalism, the global elite, etc. These are white supremacist dog whistles for Jews. Neonazi talking points here. This is all part of this antiJewish conspiracy theory. It's all a part of spreading hatred by making a threat that doesn't exist.

      
      

      [00:33:13] - Patriarchy has nothing to do with the divine masculine. Patriarchy is all about putting one guy in charge. Shamanism is egalitarian, and there's no hierarchy. As a shamanic practitioner, I view myself as a servant. I'm not taking orders from people.

      [00:43:44] - The final frontier for us spiritually is to explore inward. Formlessness is at the very core of your being, meaning not your body, not even your mind. Out of this void is where our experience arises, our physicality, and our thoughts and feelings arise. Hermetic philosophy talks about gnosis becoming aware of us, being a part of the one thing. At its core, it's love. Because it accepts everything, it's difficult to conceptualize, so we anthropomorphize it. A lot of our imagery of Deity comes from that.

      
      

      [00:54:00] - John ends the conversation on love with a self-exploration on loving Yourself. John recommends subscribing to this podcast if you're not already subscribed.

Shamanic teacher, John Moore, explores the patriarchal views about sex and spirituality. From a shamanic perspective, ethical sexual practices are a powerful tool for mind, body and spirit healing.

      Shamans around the world are part of their cultures, but when exploring sex in the spiritual realm - traditional viewpoints giving control over ourselves to unseen authority starts to break down.

      A shaman is always concerned with power - not power over others, but the power to heal, gain information, and to protect others. Merging spirituality with sex is a way to explore incredible power.

John Moore is a shamanic healer from Maine who has been practicing shamanism for many years, and he has a lot of experience with helping people heal their chronic illnesses. In this episode, John explains how shamans heal, and why shamanic healing can be so beneficial for people with chronic illnesses. He also talks about how to find a good shamanic healer, and what to expect during a shamanic healing session. If you are interested in learning more about shamanic healing, this episode is definitely worth listening to!

      Shamanism is a practice that involves using shamanic techniques to enter into an altered state of consciousness in order to interact with the spirit world. Shamans believe that everything in the universe is connected and that illness is caused by a disruption in this connection. In order to heal someone, shamans work to restore balance and harmony within their clients.

      Shamanic healing is not a replacement for medical care, medicine, or therapy. Instead, John describes how shamanism works hand in hand with everything else one is doing to improve their health outcomes.

      With chronic illness, one really needs to find a shamanic practitioner they trust and who they can work with over time.
