IAGWIS is a literal statement and serves as the foundational tenet of sonsotism. It addresses and resolves the fundamental question, “Who am I?” IAGWIS is the result of a lifetime of mindful exploration, prayer, contemplation, and experience. It is built of the pain, joy, excitement, stress, and conflict of the life that preceded its utterance… Continue reading Implications of iagwis

I am God when I sleep. If I am God when I sleep, who am I when I awaken? Where does that leave my familiar self? …  

One of the most persistent ascentist beliefs is that I have a ‘purpose’. Tools have purposes. Employees have purposes. Components have purposes. They are useful to those who need them. Am I merely a tool for others to use? For a god? Am I only to be useful? …

This is the only story I need to know, and every awakening is an opportunity to deepen my understanding of my existence. As I reluctantly awaken here, my very first desire is to remain there… Continue reading My story

January 24, 2021 My core self is Peace. A fixed, timeliness, spaceless, dimensionless place I call Home. But then I awaken, my peace ends, and the burden of life begins anew.

II am stuck in a painful cycle of death and rebirth that I experience as peace punctuated by periods of wake.  In waking, I explode outward painfully into this ‘existence’, forgetting who II am. I stumble around existence… Continue reading What I know
