Alkhemist : Quantum Spiritualist Alkhemist's Profile

Morgan Kochel

is 
getting ready to overhaul her Gaia site!

Title: Quantum Spiritualist

Gender: Female

Age: 45

Sun Sign: Aries

Chinese Sign: Water Rabbit

Location: Lancaster, PA

About Me:

My life is dedicated to Spirit; I am here to evolve.  I also enjoy taking willing others along for the ride. 

More titles of my ego include:  Gnostic, Spiritual Director, Spiritual Counselor, Tarot reader, mystic, alchemist, therapist, mentor, and hermit.  I'm a life-long student of comparative religions and alternative spiritualities, and my main goal is to help others to grow spiritually, to ease the world's suffering, and to awaken to enlightenment.

I now have a few other “bio pages” on the internet.  The most active of these for me is Facebook.  Please look for me, Morgan Kochel, to see the latest details.

For more spiritual info, see my more detailed webpages at the United Communities of Spirit!



I recently found a perfect description of myself in a web article commentary written by James Swartz on a book entitled “Self-Knowledge” written in the 8th Century by Adi Shankara.  I'd like to share it with you here, and I would love to hear from you if you see yourself in this, as well:

       The belief in my insignificance comes because I take the body-mind-sense complex to be me.  I look around and see how small I am compared to the vast and complex world surrounding me.  I see six billion other bodies and know I'm a dispensable nobody.  My planet, like my solar system, is a fly speck, a meaningless living oddity in an apparently dead cosmos, my modest life span a trillionth of a nanosecond on the cosmic clock.  Nothing remains the same; everything rushes headlong into the jaws of death.  Without so much as a by your leave, a tiny virus can destroy my life.  Is it any wonder I see myself as limited?

       Yet some part refuses to accept limitation.  As I travel along my path struggling to distinguish myself at peak moments the clouds part, the sun shines through, and my inner voice thunders, “You are adequate, limitless, and whole.  You are pure love.”    

        Something tells me this knowledge should last forever.

        My friends and family don't understand, my explanations fall on deaf ears.  Undeterred, I start to meditate.  One day in the stillness all boundaries dissolve and I again know freedom.  I see radiance behind the eyes of people on the street and hear the universal sound everywhere.

        And when the experience fades, the memory, a sacred object in my mind, keeps me striving to become something I already know I am.

        How absurd!  When I see the wind blowing away the clouds obscuring the sun, I can't wait for an inner wind to blow away the misconceptions keeping me in ignorance.  But is there such a wind?   It seems conscious effort is required.  This effort is constant practice of knowledge.

Constant practice of knowledge
neutralizes ignorance
as a base neutralizes an acid,
purifying the individual self.        

*******

My direction in this life comes from the Pistis Sophia:

Do not cease seeking day or night, and do not let yourselves relax until you have found all the Mysteries of the Kingdom of Light, which will purify you and make you into Pure Light and lead you into the Kingdom of Light.
