What if you discovered that everything in your life you believed to be true, happened to be false; that everything in your life you trusted is guaranteed to let you down? What if you were to discover that everything you have been taught by your family, your friends, your culture, your religion and society and the rest of humanity in general is just so wrong? What if you discovered that your whole life and that of those around you is trapped in illusion, pain, vanity, wasteful roles and inevitable destruction by a very simple but devastating error of perception.

Do you have any idea of who you really are? Chances are you will live and die without ever finding out. If you actually caught sight of your own true potential, not that fantastic hype churned out by Hollywood and personal development marketeers but saw yourself in the light of the simple but profound truth of a self-corrected perception of what you could become as a psychologically mature and transformed human being, what is it going to do for you if you "wake up"?

In a world where exaggeration and "over the top" statements are the norm and people are hardened by daily hyperbole, what will it take to have you realise the enormity of what is being stated on this site?

People are stuck in an apparently (at first) endless number of familiar and culturally dictated roles and scripts that have replaced every opportunity of true development with premade, "off-the shelf" lives and lifestyles that differ only by the color and amount of the accessories attached to them.

On this site, if you catch sight of what is being revealed here and start to change your life from the corrected perspective and do "the work", then a life of clarity, peace, purpose, joy and a sense of universal belonging, are yours -- and above all, the human race may finally take up their true place and potential as co-creators and stewards of the conscious evolutionary purpose on this planet.

seculargospel.com is your self-help site for demystifying consciousness and enlightenment; extracting the transformational truth from the metaphor in religion; and aiding you in releasing the guru, master, teacher, shaman, priest, pastor and politician from the responsibility for your life.

The primary aim of this site is to offer aid and encouragement to those folks who have undertaken or are attempting to undertake what may be called “The Work”, “The Path” or “The Way” There is a good chance that if you belong to this type of spiritual adventurer then you will know just what is meant by that. But its also for those who are perplexed with the way humankind is going or are simply curious or are “shopping around” for some meaning to life. --- WELCOME! – We’d love to hear from you!

Very soon the discussion board/forum will be activated, membership is free, but the conditions of participating expressly exclude competition (debate) and other ego games, however free discussion and personal beneficial contribution including diverse approaches that lead to the same enlightened ends, are strongly encouraged.

To establish a fundamental perspective of what many of us have found untenable about the state of humanity and are either trying to radically change the course of that downward spiral or have wearied of the attempt and now wish to put their energies and resources into establishing a new “psycho-spiritual” society, the seculargospel site offers a “stock-take” or comprehensive psycho-spiritual "audit" of the present fundamental state of the human race, its institutions and its activities.

It is hoped that this spiritual “audit” can provide some answers, not only to why the struggle to develop and transform ourselves has often been so very difficult, but it is also to help those who are committed to undertake the journey, by offering them maps, tools, explanation and encouragement that can greatly accelerate their work.

The seculargospel site also will offer ways to take up an authentic working opportunity to take part in the establishment of a new conscious community of transformed and transforming humanity and perhaps even the establishment of a new psycho-spiritual civilisation. “The Work” of true personal growth and transformation, for those to come, will be much easier and more effective in a psycho-spiritual environment populated with authentic companions-on-the-road who support, encourage and model the process.

Just what is this "secular gospel"?

Well, "secular" is what it means:- "non-religious" and gospel has come to mean both "truth" and "good news." Contemporary understandings and the recent development of a mature abstract language now allow the use of rational conceptualisation to describe meta-cognitive and meta-ethical potentials and growth, instead of having to use the confusion of myths and metaphors, that has corrupted most previous discussions about such a path of natural growth to psychological maturity.

 

 

Just what is "enlightenment"?

You may well ask, given the implications that have surrounded the use of that word for centuries. Here the word is used to label that rare state of human psychological maturity that is capable of sufficiently understanding the individual and species nature of our potential as humans and the subsequent responsibilities and universal functions that flow from it.

Just what is this consciousness?


Going beyond a physiological awareness of self, the kind of consciousness being referred to on this site, is a state of self objectivity that actively perceives in oneself, those areas of decision-making and behavioural processes that are normally considered to be "sub-conscious":- such as" deep-seated and imprinted values, behavioural patterns and subjective influences. This kind of consciousness is a continuum which increases in depth and scope with increasing enlightenment.
