  • The Smoke Trail S1 E35: Smoke Q&A: False Light, Truth vs Falsehood Discernment on the Spiritual Path
    Dec 23 2025
    Episode 35: False Light - Truth vs. Falsehood: Discernment on the Spiritual PathGuest BioThis is a solo episode hosted by Smoke Wallin, the creator of The Smoke Trail. As a former CEO and entrepreneur turned spiritual guide, Smoke draws from his personal awakening journey, blending leadership insights with consciousness practices to help others navigate transformation. Inspired by Sedona's energy and real-life challenges, he shares raw, practical wisdom on integrating mind, body, and spirit for holistic well-being, often referencing tools like David Hawkins' Map of Consciousness for calibration and discernment.SettingFilmed in a serene Sedona setting with red rock views evoking clarity and introspection. The peaceful backdrop aligns with the episode's focus on sorting spiritual truth from noise, providing a grounded space for reflective Q&A on discernment amid information overload.SummaryIn this solo Q&A episode, Smoke addresses navigating the spiritual landscape in an era of unlimited information, where truth mixes with noise, marketing, and "false light." He emphasizes using David Hawkins' calibration scale (above 200 for integrity) via muscle testing or pendulums to discern teachings and teachers. Smoke warns of false paths—teachings blending partial truths with untruths or once-high-calibrating leaders who fall due to ego or external forces. He shares personal experiences, urges testing everything (e.g., books, gurus), and highlights how discernment saves time, avoids costly detours, and protects against energetic distortions. The episode stresses integrity, sovereignty, and proactive truth-seeking to elevate consciousness without deception.LearningsCalibration for Discernment: Use Hawkins' scale (200+ = integrity) with muscle testing or pendulums to quickly evaluate teachings, teachers, or materials—avoid anything below 200 to prevent wasted time and harm.Test Everything: Always verify spiritual content for truthfulness; mix of truths with untruths (false light) is common—calibrate specific claims or overall integrity to stay on path.Recognize False Light: Partial truths packaged with sizzle or marketing can mislead; fallen teachers (once high-calibrating) often succumb to ego or forces, leading followers astray—recalibrate periodically.Sovereignty in Seeking: Rely on personal tools for discernment rather than blind faith; information overload demands proactive testing to filter noise and align with true awakening.Protect Against Forces: As consciousness rises, energetic distortions test seekers—discernment preserves sovereignty, preventing absorption of low-integrity energies that cause problems.Universal TruthsTruth calibrates high: Integrity (200+) aligns with power; low calibrations indicate force or deception—test to ensure teachings elevate rather than distort.False light deceives subtly: Mixes of truth and untruth lure seekers; discernment reveals hidden agendas, protecting the path from costly detours.Sovereignty is key: Personal calibration tools empower independence; blind following risks sovereignty—question everything to maintain authentic growth.Forces oppose awakening: Rising consciousness attracts tests from distortions; integrity shields against them, turning challenges into elevation opportunities.Time is precious: Wasted on false paths hinders lifetimes; proactive discernment accelerates true awakening, fostering joy and alignment.ExamplesHawkins' Scale Application: Smoke uses pendulums or muscle testing to calibrate teachings above 200 for integrity—e.g., testing a book or guru to avoid low-calibrating noise.False Light Teachers: People follow once-high leaders who fall (e.g., due to ego), absorbing distorted energies—recalibrating reveals the shift, preventing harm.Information Overload Test: With AI like Grok, access ancient wisdom easily, but test for truth—e.g., a packaged teaching mixing truths with marketing calibrates low.Personal Detour Avoidance: Smoke shares avoiding wrong paths by testing; costly false journeys waste time, but discernment saves effort and aligns with sovereignty.Energetic Forces Warning: As seekers rise, sophisticated distortions test them—calibrating protects, ensuring growth without deception from "false light."Smoke Trail ThreadsBuilds on Episode 29 (Health & Consciousness) by applying calibration to spiritual health, linking discernment to clearing distortions for wholeness.Echoes Episode 33 (Liv Fisch) on principles for success, emphasizing testing for integrity to align with true "human medicine" and avoid false paths.Connects to Episode 34 (Jonette Crowley) on mystical journeys, using calibration to discern genuine channels/guides from deceptive energies.Ties to Episode 32 (Alissa Allen) on unitive intelligence, expanding discernment tools to unite science-spirit without false light interference.

She also developed a mobile app and community for daily practices, assessments, and growth, empowering users to access higher consciousness and "superpowers" like intuition and divine wisdom.SettingRecorded in the majestic red rock vistas of Sedona, Arizona, evoking a sense of grounded peace amid discussion of inner transformation. The serene environment contrasts with themes of chaos and recovery, fostering a reflective dialogue with the host's first repeat guest.SummaryIn this return conversation, Smoke welcomes back Liv Fisch to celebrate the launch of her book Spiritual Heartbeat: The Ultimate Requirement for Success and the Be Human Medicine platform. Liv shares how her coaching revealed recurring themes, leading to 7 spiritual principles (e.g., radical living, empowerment, trust) as a foundation for "human medicine"—filling your cup to overflow for others. They explore integrating four intelligences for higher consciousness, building supportive environments, quick recovery from low states, gratitude practices, energy clearing, and committing to habits over mere choices. The episode emphasizes turning awareness into action for personal and collective elevation, with Liv's app offering assessments and tools for daily application.LearningsHuman Medicine Foundation: Fill your own cup through morning practices to give from overflow; coach others to self-heal until they can do it independently.7 Spiritual Principles: Build a "triangle" with principles like radical living and empowerment at the base, enabling self-care, service to others, and world impact.Recovery Time Mastery: Success lies in quick shifts from reactivity to wisdom—notice when below the "line of effectiveness" and respond with awareness.Supportive Environments: Surround yourself with mirrors (friends, family) for honest feedback; invite accountability to align with growth aspirations.Commitment vs. Choice: Associate bad habits with pain and good ones with pleasure; set up environments for success to make positive actions easier than avoidance.Universal TruthsHumans are medicine: We heal each other through presence, but must first heal ourselves to transmit clean energy without distortion.Spiritual intelligence integrates all: Body, emotions, intellect, and spirit form a foundation for "superpowers" like telepathy and divine downloads.Recovery defines mastery: Life's game is measured by how fast you return to empowerment after friction, not avoiding challenges.Environments shape reality: Choose circles that reflect your aspirations—energy fields are hard to overcome, so curate supportive ones for growth.Commitment rewires habits: Link short-term pain to long-term gain; pleasure-seeking brains change when we vividly associate rewards with positive actions.ExamplesBook Birth from Coaching Themes: Liv's clients presented varied stories but shared solutions in 7 principles, evolving from newsletter ideas to a 480-page manuscript.Assessment for Gaps: The Spiritual Heartbeat quiz reveals misalignments (e.g., strong in trust but weak in empowerment), taken alone, on challenges, or with trusted mirrors.Recovery in Friction: Notice low states quickly and shift with gratitude or questions like "What am I to learn?"—Liv's mantra "Thank you, more please" builds reserves.Energy Clearing Practice: Smoke waves off absorbed negativity with declarative statements; Liv somatically wipes her field, honoring sensitivity in chaotic settings like YPO events.Habit Shift Exercise: List negative consequences of numbing (e.g., wine and TV) vs. positive rewards of growth (e.g., meditation)—Tony Robbins-style to rewire pleasure associations.Smoke Trail ThreadsBuilds on Episode 8 (Liv's first appearance) by updating her cult escape to book/platform launch, emphasizing recovery and principles for ongoing growth.Echoes Episode 29 on health as consciousness, linking Liv's "human medicine" to clearing energy and integrating intelligences for wholeness.Connects to Episode 30 (Seth Streeter) on ego-soul shifts, showing how principles like empowerment lead to midlife purpose beyond metrics.Ties to Episode 32 (Alissa Allen) on science-spirit unitive intelligence, expanding to Liv's four intelligences and app for practical application.References The Smoke Trail’s Guide to Raising Consciousness for Leaders on emotional processing and mindset shifts, with ...
