What is SoaJ?

In a nutshell, Soul on a Journey is like a spiritual online journal and wiki. We encourage those seeking absolute truth to see what resonates and share their experiences.

What's In a Name?

Are we spiritualists – those who seek connection to something greater than themselves? Or are we mystics – those who embody a unique blend of deep inner knowing with an unquenchable thirst for the truth?

Perhaps we’re star children (e.g. volunteers, lightworkers, starseeds, indigos, crystals, hybrids, or rainbows) – those who’ve come from other dimensions or planets, incarnating on Earth to help elevate our collective consciousness. Or perhaps we’re old souls – those who’ve lived many lives and retain a deep wisdom beyond our current incarnations.

We won’t get bogged down by labels or distinctions. SoaJ exists to help illuminate our intertwining paths as we embark on spiritual journeys. Why? Because we resonate with the concepts that we are all connected and that all paths lead to the same eternal Source — ALL IS ONE. Namaskaram fellow souls.

I am a soul on a journey with other souls as my co-travelers.

Clarity Seeking

SoaJ recognizes that each of us has self-chosen lessons to learn and that there are many ways to seek truth. We show compassion to ourselves and others because we've experienced firsthand how being led into a rigid belief system can be counter-productive. In other words, we seek with discernment. Yes, we understand this can be hard, but our aim is to always direct our energy toward what serves our purpose rather than what detracts us from it.

Open-Minded

SoaJ is inclusive and respectful of different perspectives. Strength lies in community. We've gained clarity from countless fellow souls, religious texts, spiritual ideologies, scientific theories, and esoteric resources. We find what resonates with us in all paths and ideologies — sharing the commonalities because we're all in this together. We strive for clarity of perception — to see things as they truly are without our pesky egos and biases getting in the way.

Experiential

SoaJ recognizes that not all truths can be grasped intellectually. Therefore, we strive to be fearless and fun as we embark on new experiences, engage with other like-minded fellow souls, and put into practice what we've learned. We understand there are countless ways to navigate our paths. No, we won't sugarcoat it — the struggle is real. But we embrace the good, bad, and uncertainty because it's totally worth it.

Introspective

SoaJ understands the value of turning inward. Because some truths, like the blissful ecstasy of Source, can only be experienced within. Practices that help us cultivate a conscious, introspective mindset include meditating, chanting, performing breathwork and yoga, listening to inspirational music, watching insightful talks, reading ancient texts and books, and spending time in nature.
