Welcome to my inner journey. It is no small thing for me to reveal this much of what has occupied my consciousness all these years. If there is value in these works I believe it to be intrinsic and therefore not so much to be assigned to myself. I have simply done the inner research required. All have access to higher reveals. Each must do the work inwardly assigned to them. I can testify to this: it is an adventure in Joy. A fond hope is that many, upon seeing these works, will be inspired to deepen their own inner journey. Many blessings to you should you choose to do so.
