Genesis : Part 1 : The Sound of Silence

As always. Headphone Recommended. Welcome to the Infinite Harmony Podcast. Mind and Body. The Great Separation always moving toward Union. We look today at the state of the Animist and how some of our greatest Mythologies teach us about the bifurcation of mind. We go back to Genesis, one of the oldest and widely known stories on planet Earth, as well as the Kojiki, the telling of the origins of Animist Japan, all to walk the road back toward Silence, as it is perhaps our greatest tool in overcoming the meta-crisis that looms before us. Discover the golden threads that weave us all together. This episode is written and produced by Jackie Dragon.

The Luminous Ground (The Nature of Order : Finale)

As always. Headphone Recommended. Welcome to the Infinite Harmony Podcast. We come to the culmination of our study of Christopher Alexander's Magnum Opus, "The Nature of Order." Today we realize the vision of this study, the creation of a new epistomology, a new lens upon which to view our reality, one that recognizes both our individual expression and beings and the essential nature of our oneness with the Universe. How to do we create from our highest vision? What is the purpose of the human species in this reality? How do we reconcile the personal and impersonal, the intimate and the cosmic? Discover the golden threads that weave us all together. This episode is written and produced by Jackie Dragon.

The Nature of Order : Part 3

As always. Headphone Recommended. Welcome to the Infinite Harmony Podcast. We move further into the the realm of the animate forces of architecture and our study of Christopher Alexander's Magnum Opus, "The Nature of Order." Today we ask ourselves what is the vision of building a living world? What is it about our homes, our parks, our cities and our gathering spaces that inspire us to live in a deeper and more meaningful way. How does our built world co-exist with Gaia in a way that brings life to nature as well as humanity? How do we rediscover our birthright, to exist in a built world as a live as we are, and return to our oneness with Nature. Discover the golden threads that weave us all together.

The Great Reckoning : Part 2 - The Goddess of Everything Else

As always. Headphone Recommended. Welcome to the Infinite Harmony Podcast. We follow the Golden Threads into the tale of the Goddess of Everything Else, the opposing force that does not oppose, but merely bends the will of her sister, the Goddess of Cancer to a boundless future for all living beings.  We look at the ways in which our human actions have second and third order consequences, unbeknown to us, that lead us toward greater harmony. That, perhaps, there is a grand plan, or a way out, or a stroke of luck. Discover the golden threads that weave us all together. This episode is written and produced by Jackie Dragon.
