Episode 214 - Isness: Our Natural State

“The human spirit exists as a singularity, manifested in a sea of consciousness. Each conscious being experiences Creation from a unique and singular perspective shared with no other conscious being. The power of spirit does not come from its past achievements or future aspirations, but from its existence in the present instant. This is the essence of our existence. Awareness of this essence is called the state of ‘Is-ness.’” Michael Koyoti in his book, Isness - Science, Consciousness, Spirit Michael Koyoti has had a lifelong journey encompassing music, electronics, engineering, digital audio, technology executive roles, semiconductor startups, and venture capital. Alongside his technical career, he immersed himself into decades of meditation and spiritual inquiry with Sufis, Shamans, and mystic Christians. Among his many jobs, Michael worked for a government contractor that played a pivotal role in the development of the internet. Witnessing the devolution of the internet from decentralized to centralized, corporate controlled space, Michael began to focus on sovereign digital identity, decentralized computing and cyber security, while taking a deep dive into ancient traditions that embraced the sovereignty of the human spirit. In this podcast Michael shares his understanding of Isness (defined above) and Aether, the medium which connects all matter. This is Part 1 of our conversation. In Part 2 we discuss how our natural state is blocked by oppressive controlling hierarchies and what to do about it. website: https://www.michaelkoyoti.com/ © the spiritual forum 2023
