Bledsoe Said So

Ryan and Alex explore the growing need for a steady spiritual practice in a time that feels increasingly apocalyptic. They discuss how truth can emerge from periods of darkness, why the rosary may function as a form of consciousness technology, and how ancient traditions, like the medieval monks’ liturgical hours of the Divine Office, offer a structured path for staying grounded amid cultural and spiritual upheaval.

Paul Citarella, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer of the Monroe Institute, joins Ryan and Alex to discuss the personal journey that led him through dreams, synchronicity, and expanded states of consciousness to his role at Monroe. They explore the Institute’s new Gateway Voyage program, the power of meditation, and the profound realizations that can emerge through deep states of awareness.

Ryan and Alex revisit the themes explored on Bledsoe Said So since the Goddess episode (episode 219), tracing the deeper narrative forming around esoteric cosmology, the reality of life after death, immortality, spiritual hierarchies, and the Way of Light.

Ryan and Alex journey through the tantric cosmology of Vajrayana Tibetan Buddhism, exploring the bardo realms that bridge life and death and the dreamlike illusion of samsara. They reflect on awakening and the realization of nirvana, examining how the mind’s psychic projections shape human experience across lifetimes. They also cover the spiritual practices that allow one to see beyond illusion and awaken to a deeper, enduring reality.

Ryan and Alex explore the spiritual path introduced by Jesus Christ, not as religious doctrine, but as a universal way of life rooted in heart-centered consciousness. They examine what it means to live in alignment with the heart as a means of awakening and evolving humanity’s spiritual and intuitive faculties. Drawing from Toltec cosmology, they contemplate the universe as a living hologram of the One True God: the sun as a microcosm of the Divine, and the human heart as a microcosm of the sun.
