I have often found "About the Author" website introductions to be written in third person. "He is this...", "she is that..." Whom are they talking about, in fact? Aren’t they the people who wrote about themselves? Why is it then that their whole statements are written in third person? Do these authors pretend that there was some unusually insightful web designer, who secretly gathered the knowledge about them and wrote up a blurb as a testimony to their glorious life?  It is especially true in my profession, that there is too much ego in this pretentious pseudo-professionalism to be credible and effective. Let us try to be more authentic. More as "it is" rather than as "it should appear". Ok, now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, here is what I will say about myself. In various previous statements about me (based on my life stories) I read that I am a painter. That is not true if you look at what I do. Last time I painted it was ten years ago. I am a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist, a spiritual guide, and spiritual psychologist and a counsellor. However, if you look at my self identity as incarnated to this earthly reality, by education and initial vocation I am firstly a painter. Yet it all changed with the first realization of my true identity - my timeless self, 30 years ago. I can humbly say that I became a truth seeker, and as all seekers and explorers I soon was compelled to share my findings. Would I ever paint in my life again? I am certainly intending to do so. Painting is a solitary activity. It involves only you, and as such, becomes quite self absorbing. It truly doesn’t matter who and if ever anyone will see your paintings. If you think about evolution of an individual consciousness it is pretty much the same. You are evolving for yourself, you can not evolve for anybody else’s well being. It’s just like you can not get fit for your brother nor you can get skilled for your friend. It is all your assets and advancements. (That, of course, is also debatable because your evolution affects the collective consciousness. When one reaches enlightenment consciousness of all humanity jumps a notch.) With that in mind if everyone would approach personal evolution as a primary occupation and a reason to be alive, we would not need to go out and direct others onto their path of awareness. Well, at this present, intuited level of collective consciousness of humanity we know very well that the percentage of people who are occupied by the evolution of their individual consciousness is very low. Therefore to be exclusively preoccupied by one’s own evolution it is in my view only a partial success. Numerous times I heard an opinion from so called "experts" (we know there are no experts in the "business" of the evolution! We are all students.) that we must first take care of our own evolution, because it is this self-evolutions that is most important. Only then we can think about helping others. If that would be true nobody would have children before they are 80! Nobody would go to work, to evening school and have raised 3 kids at the same time! We do many things and play many roles and at the same time we can also keep our evolution on the front of our minds. That is why an equally important work for me now is helping individuals to see the difference between their ego and their Authentic Identity (AI) as it is to keep an eye on my travelling into greater clarity and better understanding between those two. Some quick, final points: I am in this life at this time Yaga Bialski, PhD and I live in North Bay Ontario Canada I have 3 children that I raised by myself since they were 2 months old, 2 years and 3 years old. They are now 27, 26 and 24. Paula is doing her PhD in sociology in Lancaster University in England, teaching in University of Warsaw, Poland, she is a published in Paris, French author and is a gifted and prolific writer. Rosa has BSc from Mc Master University in Hamilton, now studying Vocal Profiling, the cutting edge science, that analyses each person’s Signature Sound, for diagnostic and healing purposes. She is also composing and writing songs, recorded her first album, teaching music and science, and working on her marriage. Ariel has BA at York University in Toronto, creating beats and videos, and managing his Hot Milk Records recording company; http://www.hotmilkrecords.com , in other words he is a strugling artist. My central focus in their upbringing, was to encourage their creativity, to teach them to play music and provide for their all creative, constructive activities. When children are connected with their timeless self, where the creation comes from, you can rest assured that as long as they are not trapped in the world of addiction they will evolve well and fast. For the past 17 years I’ve been running a private psychotherapy practice in North Bay that in the last five years focussed on teaching people about the truth of their AI and the falsehood of their egos. I am in the process of building a center that will teach secular spirituality to parents and teachers, prevent rampant ego impositions on AI of new born children and which will hopefully clean the brains already infested by faulty teachings. In 2007 I wrote my first book published under the title: "Consciousness Spirit Soul... and the Ego" (what else!), that is accessible through link on this website and Amazon.com. I am working now on a trilogy "Your Evolution", that will contextualize "common wisdom" where the same content in a different context changes from truth to falsehood. I am in the process of creating a series of seminars where I will bring in person content of my books and my teachings to people in various parts of Canada and other countries. I have a radio show, which is aired on a local radio station Blue Sky Radio 104.9 in North Bay, Ontario at 3 PM on weekdays and on the web www.blueskynetwork.ca called "Dr Yaga Show". I enjoyed preparing and recording first four half an hour shows and I am intending to keep the show going and growing. My intent to have a weekly postings on this website was interrupted by travelling and other projects but will do my best to write my ideas about spirituality and ego reality at least bi-weekly. I would welcome readers thoughts and comments. Yaga.ca and all contents Copyright 1998-2007 by Yaga Bialski, unless otherwise noted. Contents under Creative Commons License.
