Tech professional Matthew Krajewski promotes spiritual empowerment in new book
Posted: September 8, 2014 at 2:46 pm
Aptos, CA (PRWEB) September 08, 2014
Author and spiritual healer Matthew Krajewski first invited readers into the realm of spiritual awareness with his book Modern Magic, where he discussed the idea of magic and its healing powers, citing scientific findings, ancient texts and his own experiences with the supernatural. His new book, The Golden Sherpa: Ascending Into Magical Spirituality (published by Balboa Press), aims to empower readers by enlightening them to the powers available through biological energy fields.
Krajewski, a technology professional and modern mystic, engages daily in spiritual practices. In The Golden Sherpa he discusses the sensitivity required to tune into these spiritual processes, and how to access them regularly.
Using his background and expertise as a shaman, Krajewski discusses spirituality in an inviting tone. He is hopeful that this will not only make his book more comprehensible, but better get across his message that a refined sense of spirituality can make any metaphysical pursuit more accessible. Krajewski also hopes to connect with his generation, the Millennials, as he says they continue to experiment with empathic spiritual pursuits.
Modern society is marked by an internalized belief that we are all disconnected, Krajewski says. Burgeoning movements from ecological activism to gift economies are all movements that rely upon compassionate connection. This is not a trend, but an original blueprint for society, and one which I articulate at the most basic level so all readers can understand the nature of interconnected energy, in themselves and in the world.
The Golden Sherpa By Matthew Krajewski Hardcover | 6 x 9 in | 222 pages | ISBN 9781452589671 Softcover | 6 x 9 in | 222 pages | ISBN 9781452589664 E-Book | ISBN 9781452589657 Available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble
About the Author Matthew Krajewski graduated from Sarah Lawrence College where he studied writing. He is a modern mystic, incorporating diverse yet modern sensibilities into his work as a shaman and healer. The Golden Sherpa is his second book on spirituality. He also practices biodynamic farming and beekeeping at Tree Bee Microfarm with his fianc, Chef Ryan Farquhar. Krajewski invites readers to visit him at http://www.magicalheritage.com.

Awe, With And Without The Gods
Posted: at 2:46 pm
In a 2006 article for the Los Angeles Times, Sam Harris identified 10 myths about atheism, among them the idea that "atheists are closed to spiritual experience."
Harris explained: "There is nothing that prevents an atheist from experiencing love, ecstasy, rapture and awe; atheists can value these experiences and seek them regularly."
And in a post last week, my fellow 13.7 commentator Barbara J. King also wrote about atheism and awe. "Atheists feel awe, too. Everyone does. That wondrous sense needn't be described by invoking the sacred."
Yet the idea that atheism and awe are at odds is a common one. In a 2013 interview, for example, Oprah Winfrey refused to accept a woman's self-ascribed atheism after the woman shared powerful experiences of awe and a love of humanity. Winfrey controversially responded: "Well, I don't call you an atheist then. I think if you believe in the awe and the wonder and the mystery, then that is what God is."
Of course, "the awe and the wonder and the mystery" could just as well describe what motivates many scientists, whether or not they believe in God.
So why the persistent idea that awe is inextricably linked to theism? And are "scientific awe" and "religious awe" fundamentally different, or deep down one and the same?
To be sure, awe is a multifaceted emotion, and one that's only recently become the target of systematic psychological research. In an influential 2003 paper, psychologists Dacher Keltner and Jonathan Haidt argued that awe is characterized by two central features: vastness and accommodation. Vastness describes the experience of something larger than the self, whether that vastness is a matter of physical size or of metaphorical size, such as great power. Accommodation refers to the need to modify one's current mental structures to make sense of the experience whether or not such modification is actually enacted or succeeds.
These features of awe can help us understand how science and religion both elicit awe, and also how either theism or atheism could ensue.
When it comes to vastness, the natural world provides no shortage of material. In fact, studies have typically used nature documentaries, a full-sized replica of a T. rex skeleton, and even commercials depicting waterfalls, whales and astronauts in space as elicitors of awe. In one study, more than 70 percent of card-carrying atheists reported feelings of awe ("as if you were part of something greater than yourself"), with nature (54 percent) and science (29 percent) identified as the most frequent triggers.
On the other hand, religious spaces and rituals are often designed to encourage the sense that there's something larger than the self, and an omnipotent God is by definition vastly powerful. So in their own ways, both the natural world and human representations of the supernatural can create a sense of vastness.
