Unhappiness comes from mistaking the puppet for the puppeteer and asking the puppet to manage a life as complex as ours. Moving from puppet to puppeteer is the way towards wholeness. This is the transpersonal view and what is regained when the identity shifts from our role and body identities to that of consciousness itself.

Dissatisfaction, which actually results from a single, innocent mistake, pervades the life of virtually everyone. The mistake is that many believe the ego, our sense of self, is our truest identity and controller of our life as opposed to just the sum of our beliefs and conditioning. However, it’s only a secondary agent and can only play a secondary role, like that of a string puppet.

Relief from discontent and unhappy living is available. This website, and the work of Steven Pashko, offers assistance to those who are dissatisfied with life yet have a sense there is a happier and much more authentic way to live.
