Zen Gardner

Zen Gardner likes to distill, synthesize and pull up the big picture – and then reveal how
all of this affects the individual and the motivating realities that lie beneath. What is our
role? What do we do or not do now that we know we’ve been deceived on so many levels,
all while keeping an attitude of conscious awareness? The awakening is an amazing
phenomenon that even so-called alternatives and activists are often cynical about. This is
because many haven’t yet seen or felt the shift fully for themselves or identified the
amazing manifestations of this rise in conscious awareness. Moving into the next
dimension of understanding – intuition, heart knowledge or whatever people want to call
it – is the final frontier for humanity and our true source of power. Once we fully awaken,
the playing field morphs into a whole new paradigm with much greater means of
effectiveness becoming available.
