HELLO, AND WELCOME
|
This website has come into being as part of an urge that's arising in me to create a musical which is about spiritual awakening:
May all beings be happy; may all beings be free. The premise of the musical: Original Sin. |
|
|
The human soul—a droplet of Universal Consciousness; of God, if you like—incarnates temporarily into the manifest universe by taking up residence in a human body and acting as its animating force. When the ego develops in early childhood, the soul 'forgets' its true identity as Consciousness. This is Original Sin.

STEVIEThe first part of the website is about me, Stevie. Where did I come from? What is my personal story? What am I passionate about? What are my musical influences?
In this section you'll find some of my early writing, including stories about pivotal moments in my life; recordings of some of my early songs; videos of me performing songs that are inspiration for the musical; and information about my spiritual journey. I suspect that you'd find something of interest in this section, but it's perfectly fine to skip it and go straight on to check out the musical. You can always come back to it later . . . |

ANGELThe second part of the website highlights the development of my creative alter-ego, Angel.
Angel is my shadow in action, and s/he is a manifestation of my libidinal energy when it's not being channeled into sex. In this section of the website you can see snippets of my journey through the shame and hiding of this aspect of myself in my earlier years, to the joyful acceptance and celebration of this side of myself today. I am very happy to now be stepping fully into the spotlight, and presenting Angel to the world in all of her/his outrageous glory, because, quite frankly, s/he is FAB-U-LOUS . . . |

The ego is that part of our mind that identifies as an individual entity. Believing ourselves to be separate from other humans, and separate from the rest of the universe, we reside experientially in egoic or separateness consciousness, and we are asleep, spiritually speaking.

Beyond the Mirror: a MusicalThe third part of the website is dedicated to the creation of the musical, currently entitled Beyond the Mirror.
The story of Beyond the Mirror on one level is just an extension of my own personal story, but it has much greater scope and universality, and it transcends my personal story by many orders of magnitude. The musical begins, briefly, in the historical Garden of Eden. The remainder of Beyond the Mirror takes place in the near future: the year, 2020 (or whatever year the next US presidential election falls on). Beyond the Mirror depicts ordinary people searching for lasting happiness, fulfilment, and love in the midst of turmoil and strife; in the midst of life. My hope is that it will touch your heart, and inspire you in some mysterious way . . . |
