about

"That udyama in itself is Bhairava inasmuch as Bhairava holds within Himself the entire universe by reducing all the saktis to sameness with Himself and inasmuch as He completely devours within Himself the entire mass of ideation (which is responsible for sense of difference). That udyama may in itself be called Bhairava inasmuch as it is the means for revealing Bhairava who is one's own essential Self."

-Sutra 5 of the first section of the Siva Sutra as translated by Jaideva Singh

The purpose of this work is one of reconciliation.

After unlocking a door within a past paranormal occurrence in my life, I utilized the revelation that was hidden behind it as a key to unlock other doors from my past.

After sonically recreating this occurrence, I then utilized the soundtrack during ritual and meditation over the course of 30 days between the full moons of October 2020. During and after the rituals, I wrote down the impressions that I had during the meditation, using the 108 names of Shiva as a foundation on which I could structure these impressions.

What I found within this ritual was a deep reconciliation with difficult periods of my life, which were dissolved into the amalgam of my spiritual progress in order to prevent them from becoming barriers to that progress in the future.

The impressions are what they are. Whether or not the reader can find significance and value in them, I do not know. If nothing else, I hope that they serve as inspiration to others to create their own processes by which to unlock and resolve the past experiences and mysteries that continue to haunt them and hinder their own practices.

Although the theme of this work is steeped in traditions of tantric thought, I am by no means anything more than a seeker. I am not an authority or a teacher or even an accomplished student of tantric practice. My work is nothing more than a byproduct of my process of deciphering my spiritual current which I am compelled to create and to share with others.

That being said, I take great care when creating that which I intend to share with others, I have taken all steps possible to ensure that my work has value to others, even if it be only for entertainment.

This work has many themes within it, but ultimately it lead to the realization that all negative life experiences which impact us should not ever be projected as the responsibility of others. We cause ourselves these traumas and therefore it is up to us whether or not we will allow them to continue to become unresolved obstacles in our lives or if we are going to take responsibility for them, acknowledge the powerful lessons they have taught us and make them a part of the continued advancement of our souls.
