Chapter 42: Visions as Universal Feedback: Aligning Consciousness with Infinite Energy
What if the visions that arise during moments of deep introspection or spiritual awakening are not random, but instead serve as purposeful guidance? Could they be the universe’s mechanism of steering us back to balance—a direct feedback loop from cosmic consciousness itself? What if every flicker of insight we receive carries with it an unseen wisdom uniquely tailored to our personal path, gently nudging us toward harmony?
For centuries, mystics, healers, and explorers of consciousness have recounted profound spiritual experiences that realign their paths, recalibrate their intentions, and illuminate clarity through the fog of uncertainty. Such narratives often transcend cultural and historical boundaries, revealing a universal truth about human connection to the divine. These visions—whether subtle impressions or life-altering flashes of insight—may hold the secret to how we reconnect with the infinite energy of universal balance and weave it into our daily lives.
But why does divine consciousness use visions or spiritual experiences as a tool for alignment? To understand this, we must explore the concept of universal balance, the process control analogy, and the sacred tools that act as bridges to divine heritage. This triad offers a lens to perceive experiences not as extraordinary interruptions but as intentional methods of cosmic recalibration, acting to dissolve chaos and restore order.
The universe thrives on homeostasis, maintaining perfect balance through the ebb and flow of energy. From the expansion of galaxies to the rhythms of biological systems, everything oscillates within a natural equilibrium. This dynamic harmony mirrors the principles of process control in engineering—a system designed to manage balance through feed-forward and feedback loops, offering stability without limiting progress. Similarly, within spiritual practice, balance emerges not from stagnation but from the ebb and flow of awareness, intention, and the divine.
Our inner consciousness operates much like a self-regulating system, seeking harmony amidst chaos. When our intentions, behaviors, or states of mind stray from alignment with universal energy, imbalance occurs—manifesting as emotional turmoil, confusion, or stagnation. It is during these moments of disharmony that, through moments of grace or intentional spiritual practice, we often experience visions or spiritual phenomena. These are not mere coincidences but rather profound summons to return to our center and reclaim alignment with the universal flow.
These experiences act either as feedback (highlighting past deviations to correct the course) or feed-forward (guiding us toward unexplored, aligned paths). They recalibrate the “settings” of our consciousness, steering us back to the serene epicenter where cosmic harmony resides. The more we attune to this recalibration process, the more fluidly we integrate these moments into our lives, recognizing them as divine guidance rather than fleeting thoughts.
Consider a moment of profound clarity that suddenly arrives during meditation, or a dream that reveals answers to deeply rooted questions. These experiences often feel tailor-made for our current challenges—a perfect prescription to move us closer to balance. The depth of such moments lies not just in their content but in their impeccable timing, often arriving when we most need them, like an unseen hand guiding us through the haze.
For example, a spiritual aspirant feeling lost amidst conflicting priorities might receive a vision of still waters—a metaphor for letting go and returning to simplicity. A man feeling unloved or disconnected from the world because of childhood trauma may have a vision of the divine mother, whispering the assurance of love and balance into his soul. Alternatively, a seeker grappling with self-doubt might hear an internal voice filled with unwavering conviction, reminding them of their inherent divine value. Such moments serve not merely as experiences to be felt but as anchors to keep us tethered to truth in a chaotic sea.
But what if visions feel rare or inaccessible? This is where sacred words, mantras, or meditating upon an image of a beloved spiritual teacher become essential spiritual tools. These practices offer an intentional way to invite alignment and guidance, equally effective as the spontaneous moments of insight. When performed regularly, they can create a fertile ground for divine connection, making us receptive to the universe’s whisper.
Mantras, when used with conscious intent, act as temporary bridges between where we are and where our divine nature resides. Much like how a feedback loop ensures a process system stays on course, mantras recalibrate our focus by softly nudging us back into alignment with the cosmic pulse. Each repetition becomes an act of calling ourselves back into harmony, disconnecting from trivial disruptions and reconnecting with the rhythm of creation itself.
When repeated with devotion, sacred words bypass the incessant chatter of the conscious mind and align seamlessly with the frequencies embedded in universal energy. A mantra such as “Om,” revered across traditions, mirrors the vibrational blueprint of creation itself. Through its practice, we subtly tune into our divine essence, much like a string placed in resonance with the universe’s music. Over time, these subtle practices awaken the deeper layers of our spiritual consciousness, helping us live with greater awareness and purpose.
Equally potent is the meditative focus on an image of a spiritual teacher, prophet, or guru. This practice helps those yearning for connection to transcend the challenges within their fragmented selves. Meditating upon the image of figures like the Buddha, Jesus of Nazareth, or Mother Mary allows seekers to resonate with the vibrational energy of love, wisdom, and compassion they represent. These images serve as portals to higher dimensions, aligning us with a sacred energy greater than our individual will.
A key challenge in modern spirituality lies in reconciling non-traditional experiences like visions with scientific understanding. For skeptics, mystical phenomena may seem irrational or impossible to measure, yet they parallel principles found in nature. Mystical insights are not anomalous but rather an extension of systems found throughout life—systems designed to regulate, harmonize, and realign.
The concept of feedback control systems, widely applied in engineering and natural ecosystems, demonstrates how disturbances can be assessed and corrected to maintain stability. Spirituality mirrors this process. Our higher consciousness observes deviations, interprets them through visions or intuitive experiences, and guides us toward adjustments that foster alignment. Through this perspective, spiritual growth begins to appear not as a vague mystery but as a deeply logical recalibration of our energy and intention to resonate with universal harmony.
At the heart of spiritual development lies the concept of universal balance. It is here that divine reality—not as some distant ideal but as a lived experience—shifts from being conceptual to tangible. The moment we step into this balance, we gain access to new realms of clarity, inspiration, and joy. Personal well-being is no longer a pursuit but a direct consequence of living within this harmony.
Aligning with this balance creates a natural flow where struggles dissolve and the fruits of cosmic consciousness—peace, inspiration, and purpose—manifest effortlessly. Achieving such a state requires patience, self-awareness, and trust in the ways the universe communicates. Visions, mantras, or spiritual nudges are not random—they are invitations to surrender control, dissolve ego, and allow divine energy to create paths we could never imagine on our own.
Applying These Principles in Daily Life
The real challenge lies in integrating these mystical experiences into the practical framework of modern living. How do we balance the esoteric with the everyday?
- Listen to Your Inner Signals
Pay attention to subtle nudges from your intuition or recurring dreams. Treat them as feedback—not just random thoughts but intentional guides steering you toward clarity.
- Set Intentions with Mantras
Incorporate sacred mantras into your daily practice. Use them as tools to quiet mental noise and recalibrate your focus towards alignment with universal energy.
- Reflect and Act
When visions or insights appear, reflect on their relevance to your current state. Ask, “What imbalance might this be addressing?” Use the guidance to make intentional adjustments.
- Trust the Process
Release skepticism. Even if these experiences feel outside the box of conventional understanding, lean into their wisdom with curiosity and trust.
Cosmic consciousness communicates with us constantly—through visions, feelings, and sacred tools. Each spiritual experience is a reminder of the universal feedback loop in which we all participate, guiding us back to the balance where divine energy flows freely.
If you feel drawn to explore your inner consciousness, now is the time to take the first step. Open yourself to the process; allow the universe’s symphony to recalibrate your being. Guidance is not “out there”—it resides within.
Begin your exploration today.
Your divine heritage awaits.
Chapter 43: Breaking the Silence: The Transformational Power of Spiritual Experience
What if the most profound experiences of your life—the ones that have fundamentally shaped who you are—were not meant to be kept a secret?
But, what if, in the moments when the world needed them most, you were compelled to keep quiet?
For too long, this “Conspiracy of Silence” has pervaded our collective consciousness, discouraging us from openly sharing our transformative spiritual journeys. This silence robs us not only of personal growth, but also of the opportunity to ignite healing and change in those around us.
I know this because I’ve lived it. My life has been marked by moments of profound connection to the Divine and an extraordinary spiritual awakening. Spiritual experience not only lifted me out of the darkest depths of addiction and despair but also revealed a shocking truth that our world—steeped in patriarchal values and resistant to acknowledging higher levels of consciousness—desperately needs to hear.
The institutional structures we often turn to for spiritual guidance—churches, synagogues, mosques—have buried divine energy under layers of dogma, hierarchy, and rigid gender roles. I have experienced a universal love that extends to all beings, great and small. This moment crystallized my understanding of why so many people have rejected organized religion—not because they lack faith, but because these institutions often fail to reflect the expansive truth of the Divine.
Reconciling this truth with societal expectations is no easy task. It requires rejecting the narrow norms that have been imposed on us and courageously stepping into higher awareness. This is the work of personal transformation—and it is not for the fainthearted.
Before my awakening, addiction had consumed my life. Recovery—guided by the 12-step programs of Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, and Adult Children of Alcoholics—gave me the tools to rebuild my foundation. But spirituality was the missing link that gave my recovery depth and meaning. And, sometimes, these steps are known to carry those that practice them to new heights of spiritual experience and understanding.
One pivotal moment in my recovery was listening to Jack Boland’s tape series, Twelve Steps to a Spiritual Experience. These recordings helped me move beyond the mechanics of sobriety and into the heart of what it means to live a spiritually rich life. Boland’s teachings introduced me to the idea that recovery is not merely about abstaining from substances; it is about experiencing a profound transformation of the soul.
Through practices like prayer, meditation, and exploring nature, I began to feel truly alive again. I felt unspeakable gratitude for the interconnectedness of all things—a gratitude that continues to sustain me today. This connection to spirit introduced a resilience I never thought possible. It has enabled me to face—and ultimately transcend—the societal stigma and the internal self-doubt that so often accompany both addiction and spiritual seeking.
Today, I share my story not as an act of self-expression alone, but as an act of service, a love letter to humanity in its darkest hours. And, though I also know that many are not interested in this type of material, I will not let that fact discourage me from breaking the conspiracy of silence.
On May 24, 1987, I experienced what I can only describe as a direct encounter with universal love. Driving along Canyon Boulevard toward my friend Randy Olson’s house, I was overcome by a vision of a loving, infinite motherly presence cradling me like an infant. As I drove over the West Hills, that wonderful vision came to me, accompanied by a feeling that I had not had before. The vision of a loving mother, in the image of the Mona Lisa holding a baby, was chosen by my inner spirit to represent this infinite energy, for reasons to be explained later.
For the first time in my life, I felt the true depth of love—a force so overwhelming, so healing, and so inexplicably beautiful that I had to pull my car over to the curb, get out of the car, and fall to my knees. I felt the love of this wonderful UNIVERSE. There is the love we have for each other, for our friends, our pets, our children, our families, but this love that I felt flow into me, and through me, transported me into a heightened awareness, and awe. The beauty was too great to talk about, the feeling so overwhelming, so healing, so resurrecting.
I eventually made it to Randy’s house, and I met with him for the first time since drinking to a blackout fourteen months previous. Randy and I had consumed high levels of alcohol many times together over the years, and the impact of drugs and alcohol had really taken its toll on me.. Randy could not believe his eyes when he saw me, and loudly exclaimed;
“Bruce, what has happened to you? You look different, you look happy. You look at peace. You have changed!!!”
Yes, I had changed. I started talking to Randy about my experience, and Randy started to get tingling sensations up and down his spine. The hairs on his arms starting sticking up straight off of his arms! Randy exclaimed
“Bruce, what is going on. When you talk, I start to tingle all over. What has happened to you?”
“Well, I think that I am having an experience with God, Randy.”, I said.
“Umm, Bruce, such an experience is not for me right now, but I am sure happy that you are having it, because you needed something different in your life really bad, and really quick!”.
How right he was!
I could not take Randy into my new-found world of love and happiness, I could only share, ever so briefly, my personal experience of it. Such is the way of much of the world, who have adapted in their own unique ways to not experiencing cosmic love. Our egos do a fine job shielding us from our greatest good. Sometimes, it takes a miracle, a transcendent vision, to shake us free from the ego’s pillory.
The image of the Mona Lisa holding a baby is a fascinating, enlightening image. I was later taught to understand that this energy is the Divine Feminine, of which our patriarchal world continues to suppress daily, and has successfully done so, more or less, for at least the last 2000 years. The wonderful feelings that accompanied that vision became known to me as divine horripilation.
It was reported some time back that Leonardo DaVinci had painted the Mona Lisa as a self-portrait of himself, in feminine form. His message is subject to interpretation, but in today’s terms, he was honoring his feminine side, or nature. He saw that the source of all creativity came from this mysterious, non-conscious center within himself where feelings of wonder, awe, mystery, and sensitivity to and compassion for others arises from. His mission was to symbolically represent the divine within himself, through the most effective medium of the day, which was painting.
Consciousness presented this as a healing image to my awareness. I saw how this feminine side carried all of the divine love and deep feelings of goodness that I had ever wanted for myself. I was literally re-birthing myself, and this image of the mother holding the baby represented that new birth to perfection.
Mysterious Image of divine Mother’s love?
This was not the conditional love we exchange in our daily relationships. This was Love itself—a generous, boundless essence that coursed through me like an eternal stream. The universe, which had once felt cold and indifferent, now embraced me as its cherished child.
This was my introduction to the Divine Feminine. It was a revelation that stands in stark opposition to the patriarchal narratives I had so often encountered within religious institutions, where the feminine is diminished and, at times, entirely erased.
My spiritual awakening illuminated an essential truth—the Divine Feminine is not an abstract concept or mere metaphor. It is a vital energy that complements the Divine Masculine, bringing balance, nurturing, and creativity to the cosmos. Yet, for centuries, patriarchal systems have sought to suppress it.
One of the greatest challenges we face in both personal and collective transformation is breaking the silence that fear of rejection and shame enforces. Too often, we feel compelled to “look good,” presenting polished exteriors to the world that we think will be readily accepted while hiding our authentic selves. This tendency creates barriers to honest connection and healing.
Recovery, much like spirituality, thrives on vulnerability. Sharing our stories—our real stories, not the airbrushed versions—is an act of courage that not only liberates us but also invites others to reflect on their own journeys.
It takes strength to defy societal norms that encourage silence about spirituality, addiction, or even emotional suffering. However, each time we speak openly, we chip away at the walls of ignorance, misunderstanding, and judgment.
Spiritual transformation is never just about the individual. When we embrace our own healing, we create a ripple effect that benefits our communities and the larger world. Whether it’s guiding someone else to begin their recovery or simply modeling authentic living, the small acts that stem from spiritual integrity have the power to inspire profound change.
By acknowledging and honoring the Divine Feminine in all of us, by integrating spirituality into recovery, and by sharing our experiences freely, we serve not only ourselves but also the greater good.
If there’s one message, I hope you’ll take away, it’s this: Seek authentic self-discovery. Uncover the layers of self-doubt, shame and conditioning that keep you from experiencing who you truly are. Explore the depths of your spirituality, and don’t be afraid to share your story—no matter how raw or unconventional it may be.
Your story has the power to heal—not just you, but the countless others who need to hear it. Together, we can break the “Conspiracy of Silence,” honor the balance of the Divine Feminine and Masculine, and create a world more open to Love itself.
Are you still attempting to search for your own personal Jesus? Your time is better spent searching for your true nature, rather than preying on Jesus and the collective ignorance surrounding his life and teachings. Then, other spiritually realized people can take their rightful place in your life, as your brothers and sisters in Spirit..
If you need someone to believe in, if you need to believe in a sacred presence that is real, and present for you in this moment, then start believing in yourself. Open your heart to the divine potential in yourself, everyone and everything and open yourself to your highest possibilities.
The time for silence is over.
The time for transformation is now.
Will you answer the call?
