Welcome to this Blog

Welcome! Just like Raw Food, just like Twitter, there are many new creations sweeping the world. I am one of them. So is this blog. So - I’m wagering - are you. As the world changes, we discover ourselves more deeply and a new, more personalized spirituality emerges. The new spirituality may or may not involve a church, a mosque, a synagogue, or even a yoga studio. What it does do is ignite the creative spark within. It inspires us to move in large and small ways into new territory. This territory is more loving, authentic, expansive, and innovative. This blog is devoted to an exploration and celebration of this new spirituality, its promise and the rejuvenation it brings.

About Ahnday

For nine years I practiced law - civil rights, employment, poverty, prisoner rights, tribal law and other forms of progressive legal advocacy. I earned my law degree from Hastings College of the Law in San Francisco, California. Before this I graduated from Reed College in Portland, Oregon with an undergraduate degree in biology and an emphasis in anthropology/human evolution).

Before any of this I was a child. As a child I stomped my foot and challenged God, “If you want me to do what you want you’re going to have to prove you exist!”  Looking back on it - given what has transpired between then and now - I see that a divine messenger was in fact trying to get my attention. Why else, my adult-self reasons, would my child-self, alone in her room, have felt the need to speak out loud such a demand?

These conversations with a disembodied voice that, as a child, I recognized as the voice of God are perhaps more striking in light of the fact that I was raised an atheist and believed myself when I vehemently denied the existence of both God and the spirit world.  Into adulthood this world view held firm.  With the exception of few unsatisfying forays into church as a young adult I clung to this identity and until now never considered the contradiction between these childhood voices and my atheistic beliefs.  

It is my conviction that beginning in 1995 the Divine began meeting my demand for proof.  For several years my life became a river of turbulence.  Once I stopped reeling I was able to see these traumas as spiritual initiations opening me to new vistas of perception, abilities and a fresh identity.  It was not an easy transition.  Powerful initiations are rarely easy.  

In its wake Spirit left gifts.  As a result, I can now communicate directly with plants.  Though my right hand is dominant, I can now write left-handed and backward.  (Click here for sample of writing.  Writing samples are shown toward the bottom of the page).

This waking up, these experiences with the spiritual realms, this way of knowing life, has shown me many things. One thing it has shown me is that it is incredible what lies beyond our five senses. This learning has expanded my sense of what is possible and given me a new kind of hope – hope for myself and hope for humanity. I am blessed to be able to share some of this gift with you here.
