Early Summer News:
Follow the Ever-Peal

It’s June 2nd, and we recently finished our 2020-2021 Guild season. As the humidity starts to thicken down here in New Orleans, we have begun the project of editing almost three years’ worth of visionary reports. We’re talking well over one thousand typed pages, divided into three books! They are not just dreams, but a…

Stories from the Guild

Every year we launch a new season of the Sacred Ecstatics Guild that begins in the fall and ends in the spring.

Guild members also visit the…

Catching a Numi

A few years ago, I (Hillary) had a vision in which the Sacred Ecstatics community was on a long road trip. Along the way we stopped at churches to collect maps and information to guide our journey. There I discovered two little books at a kiosk in a church lobby: The Pinnacle Prayer Book and…

Hillary and Brad

We explore: hosting a campfire over Zoom, ancestors, stones, frying pans, visions, Edgar Cayce, being a Magical Man of Mirth, a grandmother’s cooking, putting more “hex” in com-hex-ity medicine, pouring sacred emotion, and more.

Taking a Swim in the Wigram Stream: Returning to the Original Headwaters of Religious Mystery

Last week we shared a video clip of our recent Guild broadcast on Instagram. Afterward, we received thousands of emails (two) asking us what we meant by “Wigram Stream.” So, we have squeezed that long and interesting story into a 7-minute essay. The main, juicy teaching is this: all religions since the dawn of time…

The Mystical Methane Converter:
Converting Mind Gas Into Heart Fuel

Brad recently dreamed that he met one of our long time Guild members, Lance, in an advanced laboratory: I had been tinkering in the lab before Lance arrived. There was an assortment of small pipes strewn about the table, along with an unusual looking little box that had not quite been fully assembled. As soon…

The Experiments of Sacred Ecstatics

Every Sacred Ecstatics Guild season we perform a new series of “mystical experiments” that are sent down the visionary dream pipeline. These numinous-soaked creative practices amplify sacred emotion, inspire spontaneous body motion, and stir up the sacred vibration – helping us live with more daily spiritual cooking and less reflective looking.

Concentrate: Emo-tent-ion Rather than Intention Brings the Healing Intervention

The late Brazilian healer, João Fernandes de Carvalho, came to Brad in a dream and brought the Guild a teaching: We were sent to a churrascaria (barbecue steakhouse) in Brazil. There we met João who was grilling picanha, the Brazilian cut of beef that is cooked over an open fire. After he charred it, he…

Receiving Seiki
at the Mississippi Crossroads

Essay and Musical Track This essay was originally published December 6, 2020. Like Osumi Sensei, we feel when it is the right time to give someone seiki. We were fortunate to have learned from her how to give a transmission from any distance, including doing so in a visionary dream. There is no way of…
