Sometime in the year 2003, I had a series of powerful "mystical" experiences, or what I call [[Connection Experiences]]. At that time I had two choices. One, I could pretend they didn't exist and that I didn't have them, or I could embrace them and try and figure out WTF was going on. Since there was a certain amount of psychopathy in the first connection event, pretending it hadn't happened was an attractive option. Ultimately I didn't try to pretend them away. Instead, probably as a direct result of my doctoral level university training, I chose to investigate and explore, to try and figure out WTF was going on. This SpiritWiki is a part distillation of my (now our) fifteen year, ongoing exploration, and part textbook explication of our evolving theoretical understanding.

The textbook is organized hierarchically, with key concepts and theories on this page. To use the textbook, simply pick a topic and explore. '''Additional readings''' provide you with critical background readings, so if you are serious about [[Moving Forward]], be sure to do those. Keep in mind, the work is still under heavy development. Concepts, principles, and linkages are still evolving, and therefore subject to change. Navigation isn't fully developed and there might be lingering soft spots and problem areas that need to be cleaned up.

It became clear early on in the process that traditional spiritualities, specifically those wrapped around organized [[Religion]], were not authentic. They were [[Opportunistic Corruption|opportunistically corrupted]] and bent out of shape. This realization led me to think about and develop what I call [[Authentic Spirituality]]. Quite simply, Authentic Spirituality (AS) is a spirituality that [[Connection|connects]].

Each stage is broken up into three phases (primitive, intermediate, and advanced) and each stage has milestone which must be met, and obstacles/challenges which must be overcome.

Welcome to the SpiritWiki

The Canonical Knowledge Core of the Avatar.GLOBAL Knowledge System

✨ What is the SpiritWiki?

The SpiritWiki is the central knowledge repository and ontological framework of the Avatar.GLOBAL Symbiotic Knowledge System (SPKS). It is an organized, empirically grounded, and conceptually integrated knowledge base designed to support Human Development and the Full Realization of Human Potential.

The SpiritWiki provides a clear, concise, and decolonized map of the human condition—a map that synthesizes modern science, sociology, psychology, and spiritual insight. It is not a casual spiritual directory or a passive encyclopedia. It is a living, evolving Knowledge Engine intended to empower individuals and communities to overcome fragmentation, ideological distortion, and systemic disconnection.

🌍 Why Does This Matter?

We live in a world marked by:

  • Toxic Socialization
  • Disconnected egos and fractured selves
  • Elite manipulation of everything
  • Colonial, patriarchal, and ideological contamination of scientific and spiritual truth and understanding.

The SpiritWiki exists to counter this. It provides:

  • A clear, empirical, and spiritually coherent system for understanding your own consciousness, your challenges, and your potential.
  • A framework that dismantles elite-driven distortion while supporting authentic human awakening, healing, and connection.
  • A practical guide to navigate your own journey toward alignment, connection, and full human realization.

This matters because the world cannot heal until we heal ourselves. And we cannot heal ourselves until we have access to clear, truthful, and uncorrupted knowledge about who and what we are. The SpiritWiki aims to deliver that knowledge.

🔍 Where to Begin — Suggested Entry Points

Depending on your orientation and interests, here are some key entry points you might explore:

For the Spiritually Curious

👉 Connection Experience - Discover how authentic mystical experiences are common, natural, and critical for human growth.

👉 The Water Glass Metaphor - A simple but powerful metaphor explaining how human consciousness works and how you can reconnect with your full Self.

For the Social Analyst or Academic

👉 Toxic Socialization - An empirically grounded explanation of how trauma, violence, and systemic dysfunction suppress human potential.

👉 Elite Religion vs. Authentic Spirituality - Understand how spiritual systems have been distorted to serve the interests of elites — and how to reclaim them.

👉Human Development - a rough overview of human development and a suggested theoretical framing (Human Development Framework)

👉 Healing Framework - Actionable guidance to begin your healing journey and reconnect with your full self.

For the System Builder or Revolutionary Thinker

👉 Human Development Framework - A clear, scientifically and spiritually integrated model of human potential and growth.

👉 Avatar.GLOBAL knowledge system - The blueprint for building a knowledge system capable of supporting healing, emancipation, reconnection.
