In this episode from 2011, from a mindset of one who has battled, wrestled, and sought to integrate the entire range of experiences from Deep God Communion to mental agony, Bryan draws from strong imagery and metaphor to describe not only what he went through, but he also tries to universalize brokenness, fragmentation, and what Toltec Master Don Miguel Ruiz calls “the mental disease of fear”, by putting it into a context of what a hurricane is like and how a “flood” of imagery erupting from the collective unconscious can create massive chaos, hallucinations, and other mental disturbances (“The Thousand Barking Dogs”). He reiterates, that psychological “noise” and disturbances of the psyche can be combated by identifying with the I Am Presence, that of which we are, within. Silence and stillness can be attained. Drawing on teachings of Ruiz and A Course in Miracles, he points out that only Love is real, and it is the wounds of fear, an “emotional poison” that influences other “venomous emotions”, all stemming from the imperial ego, that lead to mental unrest. Bryan shares personal stories and challenges with the various phenomenon mentioned above. He talks at length about how he integrated his shadow to gain new found awareness and to “exorcise” emotional demons through his art work. Bryan wants people to know that you can survive Dark Night of the Soul experiences that may take the form of mental illnesses and that you can recover from them with proper guidance and discernment. He shares poems that were later released as songs on the album “Fractured & Delivered”, where he had the chance to tell his story of recovery, discovery, and transcendence. More information on how to listen to or buy that album can be found at bryanrice.org.
