About The Ministry

We don't receive wisdom;
we must discover it for ourselves,
after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us.

~ Marcel Proust ~

Spirit Walk Ministry is an educational ministry, emphasizing spiritual awakening through your own personal existential experiences. Spirit Walk Ministry is here to serve as a living, ever evolving museum, housing a collection of spiritual perspectives and mystic experiences that may, in some way, enlighten the spiritual traveler and aid them in meeting the challenges they will face on their journey.

This website is not going to be appropriate for everyone, nor is it meant to be. If you are seeking some sort of spiritual "cheat sheet” or some "psychic reading" in order to find shortcuts around the challenges that you need to face on your path, you should look elsewhere. This is not a place where people come to have their fortunes told, but where they come to discover within themselves some personal insight into their own unique being, so as to better walk their own path. This is a place for self discovery and the doors are always open to anyone who has summoned the courage to undertake your journey.

There is 'no wrong path' for you to set out upon, if that path is the way you sincerely feel drawn to travel at that moment in your life. Any spiritual conception of life from the precepts of Animism to Zoroastrianism, and any signpost you find along that path, from Astrology to a Zen Garden has the potential to help guide you in the right direction on the unique journey that is your spirit walk.

If in time, after you have examined the path you have been traveling and you feel drawn to leave the path to take up another there is no need to feel either shame, or a sense of failure in doing so. You cast no aspersions on either yourself for having taken that path, or on any other traveler still upon that path, by leaving that path to go another way.

This Ministry exists for the purpose of encouraging you to heed your own inner call to take up the path you need to be upon and to help you summon the courage to take up that path, no matter where that path may seem to be leading, for you may not end up where you want to go, but you will end up where you need to be.

You will find no messiah or guru here to tell you the way you should travel and no one here is going to try to sell you any metaphysical maps or travel guides. We are not here to sell you anything.

Our only goal is to help you become more judicious mystical consumers.

caveat lector: "let the reader beware"

We would like to assume that the people who come by to visit and make use of the Spirit Walk Ministry website understand that the path to spiritual enlightenment is a long and difficult journey. A journey that they must walk themselves, without relying on others to give them a free ride, nor by trying to buy shortcuts to enlighenment.

The chances are that sometime in your life someone has beguiled you into believing that your spirit was lying to you about the course your should take and that you should go their way instead. Then, by following their course, you have found yourself lost on a dark and stormy sea, trying to steer clear the rocks while being guided by a chart someone else has drawn, based on the imaginings of their own fanciful "BULLSHIT".

"Bullshit is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are."

Harry Frankfurt

So, let the reader beware. Do not take as holy writ anything you read here on this website or anywhere else for that matter. At best what you may find here is a grimoire of folktales and stories, or a collection of maps others have drawn, or a shelf of old books others have taken down and read and put back for you to come along and discover. Perhaps it is only a mixed bag of trivia that may, (or may not), hold a few clues. This website is here to provide its visitors with the reference material they might need, but ...

"it is up to each pilgrim to peruse and ponder this material for themselves."

It is your journey and you are the only one who can find the path that is right for you and you can only do that if you are awake and aware of your own inner voice. The first step along your path is to begin to accept that you do not know what you think you know, because what you have been programmed to think you know ...

... "is all BULLSHIT".
