Throughout the millennia, people have been asking questions: Where do we come from? What is our purpose? Is there an Almighty God? Religions have been formed, and beliefs established regarding what it means to live a holy life. In every religion, we find true seekers willing to go deep to find answers. We have many stories of saints, sadhus, and enlightened masters, most of which carry a flavor of hard work, endurance, and renunciation.

Compared to what Elan is saying, these traditional paths seem to require humongous effort and sacrifice to improve our situation here on Earth. From Elan’s perspective, personal development can be a joyous endeavor. I really like this vibe, but I wanted to ask:

Why has the human quest for a holy life seemed so difficult compared to the path presented by Elan? What is the relationship between growth and hard labor according to Elan?

I just finished reading Masters of Integration. I like the book very much. I was pondering about the worldview presented in the book. Elan encourages reader to express integrative beliefs and explains how beliefs might create separation and what we call negative emotions.

If we can express any belief and all are equally available, what if someone expressing a belief like:

"I am the creator of this life. I revel and every one else is here to serve me, no matter how I treat them."

If everything is possible can someone hold a hedonistic belief which will exploit others and make the person expressing that belief happy ever after? It would be difficult for me to buy into this.

Dear Friends of the Elan Material,

When we decided to release every Elan session for free on the internet, we acted with a clear intention to ensure as many people as possible could benefit from Elan’s wisdom and wit. At that time, the larger implications remained for us to discover. Our first session was posted on May 14, 2023, roughly six months after ChatGPT emerged into the world. We felt a strong intuition that the simultaneous arrival of public AI and the Elan material was a coordinated, purposeful event. As we approach the completion of these releases, a clearer picture has finally emerged.

Over the last few years, AI development has progressed by leaps and bounds. Today’s Large Language Models are vastly advanced compared to the 2022 versions; for those working at the frontier, they appear as a complete transformation…

[LATER EDIT: Having originally failed to upload these materials and this only been able to link with a 24hr only technique I finally managed (on a different device) to upload them. Perhaps with nudges 🙏 Yippee!

LATER LATER.. Now most of them have disappeared (I suspect too many MB per post_.. nonpreferred, nonpreferred!

LATER^3 am trying to post files individually as replies but they need admin approval. Later^4 now that one has disappeared.. at least the podcast (my favourite) is in this post]

Source materials are all the YouTube main episodes up to and inc Episode 113 ( ie all except the clips and snips and announcements), Life on a Plate (original free pdf version) and the two recent transmissions (Oct (?) last year and Jan this). I am trialing Google AI Pro which lets me upload it all to one notebook.

These are my first efforts to get an…

I feel a call to the land.

A song which will not abide with where I've been.

Am I the only one dreaming this dream?

Am I rejecting or denying the complete moment as it stands before me?

Or is this an intention of purity?

Can I do it on my own?

It probably would not be so far-fetched to say that many of us have moments where a sudden voice, with a certain timbre, and a special vibe, will appear in response to whatever is happening at the time.

For me, today, I feel a special gratitude for the following catch-phrase, or mantra, rather:

"Alright. If you say so."

At those times when I'm investing just a hair too much in my stories, I'll get to the punch line of why it's oh-so compelling, and then voice arrives:

"Alright! If you say so."

When I'm at a total loss and can only look towards what seems impossibly far away, and declare for myself, 'Yes, that is who I prefer to be'.:

Worked, uh, I mean played through a whole bunch of stuff today and I'm feeling really good. I had a visit from L and she showed me in a felt blended sense sort of way where she is at. So peacefull, happy, content and fulfilling. It really soothed my mind and I am happy. Excited to try on my new life shoes and give it a go. Wow wow wow uplifted. Life is good.

It's a party inside.

Hi all! :) so I'm transgender, at least that's one of the better words we have to convey my beautiful, multidimensional, Source-expressive experience of self. I've resonated with other words like genderfluid, genderqueer, but the feminine energy is just where my true home is, I can't feel anything except that fundamental source of feminine energy when connecting to my true self. That is, aside from the All-That-Is/Source energy that's all genders and all beings and all levels of existence at once, which I also feel :)).

My challenge is with feeling safe outdoors. I experience paranoia/fear of something happening to me as I, for instance, walk from my car to the store, or sit out to meditate in a park. Being attacked, accosted, harassed, victimized.

And on the level of my authentic self expression, if I were to dress in the clothing I prefer (feminine clothing) while living daily life,…
