Palehorse Redivivus is the online pseudonym of Jon Cleveland. Since early childhood, Jon has been a seeker, driven by the underlying suspicion that there is more to life, religion and spirituality, and reality itself, than meets the eye. As is often the case however, his senses, abilities and the endless bombardment of questions with which he tormented his poor family were not very well received during those early years, and so most of it was eventually shut down and forgotten. Jon’s entry into the online world in his later teenage years kick-started his spiritual journey and initiated his ongoing study and experimentation with alternative spirituality, theology, metaphysics and personal development. Having gradually learned by this time that his way of thinking and operating is often considered highly unorthodox by most standards (usually by managing to get himself in some sort of trouble); in this case it came to be a powerful asset.
Particularly intrigued by the idea that our experience of the world is determined by our internal makeup, that it’s possible to create our reality by redefining our identity within it, Jon began looking for ways to prove or disprove it to his own satisfaction via direct personal experience. Simultaneously combining the perspectives of mad scientist and mystic, Jon began applying his unique talents for analyzing everything half to death twice over considering a concept from multiple perspectives, taking an idea to all of its logical conclusions, and combining acquired knowledge in creative ways. Upon finding answers to his original questions that he was satisfied with, he soon realized he had raised twice as many new ones in their place. Ever since, he has devoted much of his time to study, regular practice and experimentation with various metaphysical concepts and personal development; his goal being to find out as much as he can about the nature of this thing we call “reality” and what it’s capable of, while having a blast along the way. Life since then has been quite the crazy rollercoaster ride that shows no signs of slowing down, and Jon has discovered and invented many highly effective tools and insights along the way that he now plans on sharing freely through Beyond Within. He hopes to inspire as well as provide visitors with practical information, challenge beliefs and demolish assumptions, all with his typical style of delightfully irreverent humor.
Born in southern California, Jon’s epic journey has led him to counter-colonize the UK. He now lives near Birmingham with Tab. Jon holds a BA in religion and a 1st degree attunement in reiki. His non-metaphysical hobbies and interests include art, live music, corrupting the British with stereotypical soCal surf-speak for kicks, and crossing out excessive u’s wherever they’re found.
