The Conversation Articles
This corpus of publicly accessible journalism—originally published through The Conversation—serves as a vital translation layer between Lightning Path theory and mainstream sociopolitical discourse. Authored by Dr. Mike Sosteric, each article distills complex LP concepts into accessible yet analytically potent critiques of modern institutions, ideologies, and consciousness warfare. These pieces extend LP theory into the domains of parenting, religion, education, media, economics, and geopolitics, offering a praxis-oriented bridge between esoteric spiritual insight and systemic social analysis.
Collectively, the series performs three key functions within the Lightning Path and Avatar.Global knowledge architecture. First, it provides real-world diagnostics of Disconnection and its systemic reproduction through Toxic Socialization, Ideology, and institutional Control. Second, it reveals the spiritual and psychological consequences of contemporary capitalist systems, particularly in their digital and religious dimensions. Third, it functions as an entry-level on-ramp for broader audiences, guiding them toward deeper LP engagements without requiring prior immersion in its metaphysical scaffolding. For educators, healers, and activists within Avatar.Global, this series offers ready-to-use content for training, curriculum, and consciousness-raising initiatives grounded in the Lightning Path’s integrative and decolonial mission.
