If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.

― William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell



In recent times, we've immersed ourselves in deep discussions challenging traditional beliefs and values. Concepts such as meditation, metaphysics, and the power of myths have taken precedence in our conversations.



There's a growing acknowledgment of the limits of reason and scientific rationalism, alongside a newfound embrace of spiritual enlightenment.



Despite technological marvels enhancing our lives, a subtle dissatisfaction persists. It seems we're fatigued with a system prioritising efficiency over spiritual fulfilment.



Perhaps our collective consciousness has reached a turning point, urging us to seek meaning beyond the material.



Last year, I had inexplicable visions defying scientific explanations, deepening my belief in the vastness of the universe.



In this episode, I'll share glimpses of my journey from childhood to the present—a preliminary draft, with more stories awaiting exploration. So, relax and join me as we delve into the mysteries of the soul.💗
