A brief introduction to Jonathan
The micro-biography of a contemporary mystic...
It's not my intent nor interest to try and paint for you a picture of myself—for each person that meets me must, and inevitably will, paint their own portrayal of who and what I am within their world and their own experience. I wish to respect and honour your journey in that regard.
What I will share, however, are a few things that I trust will assist you in determining whether I am a suitable person for you to invite into your life—for assisting you on your journey in any of the many ways outlined in this web site.
It is, of course, important for you to be able to qualify me within your interiority as someone you'd like to explore healing and wholeness with. How you go about that qualifying process is in your hands. I do, however, encourage you to do it as intuitively as possible... namely "follow your heart and trust where it takes you". Allow your heart to respond to what you have experienced on this web site and through meeting me in person (if you've done so).
I cannot say where your heart will take you and I am not implying that it will move you to enter into a professional relationship with me. Rather, I am aware that whatever course of action your heart moves you to pursue will be the most life-giving path for you at this point in time.
For reasons that are not apparent to many, I have stepped into this life remembering much of what the majority of people in our society have forgotten or ignored. By this I mean the subtle, formative, and esoteric elements of life and reality that only relatively few of us— at some point in life—start to seek out. This seeking is usually in response to the deep discontentment that all humans harbour someone inside, up until the time that Inner Peace is found and sustained—that point of Liberation from suffering.
From an early age—around 13 or thereabouts—my only wish and desire was "to be free and help others attain such freedom". I wasn't able to articulate it any more clearly than that at the time. This was simply what arose from within, in response to the school system I was in telling me I must now start to figure out "what I want to be in life" (with regards to a career).
At that age I was deeply aware of the bondage and suffering that everyone around me was living in—including those people who, at an apparent level, were "successful" and had "their life sorted out"—so really nothing seemed of any real importance to me except to first set myself free from that bondage and suffering. At times I didn't fully understand what I was perceiving and feeling, although it was so present in my inner world that it simply could not be ignored.
I recall that at the time I felt that once I had unleashed this "freedom" to some measure within myself, again there would little purpose in trying to live out a life that didn't revolve around assisting others to do the same. How could I possible keep this freedom—and the deep Inner Peace it brings forth—to myself and simply live out "a normal life"?
Not long after this—I was around 14 or 15—I ventured into an on-going exploration of Yoga, meditation, occultism, applied Taoism (taoist yoga and sexual energy practices), mysticism, Tantra, Kriya Yoga, spiritual healing, natural health, herbal medicine, metaphysics, quantum theory, Shamanism, and a broad range of life's many hidden elements that most of the people I have met are either not aware of or don't pause long enough to consider—except perhaps at some much later stage in life when the pain of their inner struggle escalates into something they find to be unlivable and unsolvable by conventional means.
I have always lived very intuitively, and this intuitive guidance has take me to many parts of the world—to encounter various people and situations significant to my awakening and recollection of who and what I Am. I love to travel and love meeting new people who are seeking out the truth within their heart and mind.
I wish to make it quite clear what I have at times struggled greatly, as all people do and must. I have battled with the pain of separation. I have gone through hopelessly fighting with my mind and emotions, with fear and pain, and with judgment of myself and the world. Yet I have also surrendered and allowed these things to be as they are and to ultimately allow them to fall away—creating space for something else—something far more magnificent—to come forth.
I have faced the shadows and self-illusions that have arisen from within me as I walk through this world with its many trials and tribulations. I have walked through many dark periods of inner torment; and I have found triumph and ever increasing freedom. I continue to feel relatively "normal" and I continue to face moments of doubt and separation—yet I face these experiences in such a way that they consciously serve the grander unfolding of That which I Am.
There is nothing about me that is any different from you, nor any better, nor any more enlightened or "spiritual". I simply Am that I Am. At a relatively young age I happen to have remembered ancient, timeless wisdom and experienced revelations that hold a few of the many keys to you and I walking in the Kingdom of Heaven here on Earth—the paradise within the human heart and mind. Like everyone that is on the path to Self-Realisation, I have had to (and continue to) go through life applying this wisdom to the things I am faced with from day-to-day.
My role and my purpose is to assist you in setting yourself free—when you are ready to allow yourself that gift.
If what you have experienced in reading the various pages and messages on this site has inspired you in any way, then I sincerely invite you to follow your heart and that the next natural step...
With love and my regards,
Jonathan Evatt
