Welcome!

My name is David “Davidya” Buckland.

This site explores what it means to live life approaching, transitioning, and living in post-personal stages of development; what we often call enlightenment. These stages build on more familiar stages of personal development studied by psychology and biology.

I post articles as they arise, so please subscribe to receive notification of the latest.

This site began in 2007 and contains over 2,000 articles. During that time, my perspective has grown and I’ve changed how I see and describe our potential unfolding. This evolution continues. You won’t find a list of correct concepts or truths but ways of seeing the spiritual journey, oneself, and the world. Old articles don’t become wrong, I just add other perspectives. Use them to support your journey, but don’t confuse a map with the road. Let your direct experience guide you.

Doing and Happening

Resistance is less something we do. It’s what happens based on our state. When we don’t want an experience, it triggers us, and we resist. Like breathing, this can be automatic. If there is some …

Superstrings And Memory

Physics This article is going to discuss similarities between physics and memory. However, it’s important to understand that physics studies the physical world. It does not study qualities of consciousness. (And no, consciousness is not …

Transformation

According to jyotish, we’re ending a 60-year cycle this year. It’s a time of endings and transformation. For those old enough to remember, the last time this happened was the mid-60’s. Also a time of …

Raise Your Vibration

In the article “What It Really Means to Raise Your Vibration” by Eva Müller, she explores the distinction between the temporary favouring of what feels good and an ongoing shift in your energy state. This …

On Anger

As in the Shame article prior, anger is a natural and important emotion. It stirs us to action and helps us set and affirm our boundaries, like a healthy No. It’s linked to our personal …
