    Ep. 53 – Be Careful What You Care For

    This episode of the Inner Awareness Podcast examines the role of caring in spiritual life and argues that caring by itself is not necessarily a virtue. Caring must be conditioned by appropriateness, because insinuating yourself in situations that are not appropriate can weaken your boundaries, create attachments, and interfere with both your well-being and the well-being of others. Helping someone is beneficial only when it is appropriate; otherwise it can become a form of self-involvement rather than compassion. Authentic and inauthentic feelings are not the same, many emotional states are actually supported by distorted fields of energy with individual qualities rather than genuine expressions of energy fields with universal qualities. Authentic emotions resolve themselves naturally, while distorted emotions cannot be resolved by a human being’s subtle energy field. They remain active and continue to influence behavior, core values and a human’s sense of personal identity. By developing discernment, avoiding attachment, and acting when it’s appropriate, it’s possible to care for others while you maintain your well–being and personal integrity. The episodes of the Inner Awareness Podcast were recorded during seminars, which take place on a regular basis.

    Ep. 52 – Surface Boundaries are your Best Defense

    This episode of the Inner Awareness Podcast discusses the nature and importance of boundaries within the subtle field of consciousness and energy. Human beings are interdimensional beings and function simultaneously on physical and non-physical dimensions through their subtle field of consciousness and energy. The subtle field contains complex systems, including the system of chakras, auric fields, energy gates, meridians, dantians, and vortexes. Surrounding all of these systems are thin surface boundaries that protect the integrity of the subtle field while allowing universal feminine energy to radiate through it into the external environment. Strong boundaries are essential because they support the free flow of energy, the experience of bliss, they protect the subtle field from projections of distorted fields, and non-physical beings that are parasitic or hostile to human beings. Weak boundaries allow other people and entities to interfere with the subtle field, creating attachments, and Self – limiting patterns, that diminish your life vibration. People with weak boundaries often fill the space around them with projections and impressions that interfere with the well-being of other people and undermine their authentic identity. Restoring boundaries requires mental discipline, detachment, discernment, and a lifestyle that supports the free movement of universal feminine energy. By remaining centered in your authentic mind and maintaining strong boundaries, you can remain stable, maintain personal integrity, and have your awareness and energy move freely within your subtle field.

    Ep. 50 – How to Deal with the Internal Dialog

    This episode of the Inner Awareness Podcast explores how the internal dialog is influenced by projections and waves of consciousness entering the subtle field. Without mental discipline and detachment, these thoughts, feelings, and mental patterns are easily mistaken for one’s own and can create a continuous cascade of internal dialog. The key is not to become the thinker of the thoughts or the feeler of the feelings, but to remain centered in the authentic mind and allow these waves to pass through without attachment. Through practices such as “Neti Neti”, perseverance, and effortless effort, it becomes possible to develop detachment and gain greater control over the mind. Liberation requires active participation. Without mental discipline and the willingness to resist what is self-limiting, progress remains slow and a person remains vulnerable to projections, distorted fields, and negative influences. The authentic mind is described as the true foundation. By strengthening it and creating more space for authentic consciousness and universal feminine energy to radiate freely, a person gradually develops the stability, clarity, and resilience needed to continue the work of enlightenment.

    Ep. 49 – Why a Life Strategy Is a Bad Idea

    This episode of the Inner Awareness Podcast explains why a life strategy is considered a problem in the work of enlightenment. A life strategy is based on assumptions, desires, expectations, and patterns formed through karmic attachments, childhood influences, and the field of Maya. Because it requires identification with the I, a life strategy keeps a person reacting to the past instead of remaining centered in, the ever-Present Now and their authentic mind. It may also be in opposition to their Dharma, since it’s based on what a person thinks they want rather than on what Shakti wants for them. A life strategy reinforces attachments and belief systems that distort perception and limit spontaneity, flexibility, and insight. A master does not push or pull, force an outcome, or proceed according to a fixed direction. They observe until they know, then they adapt by acting appropriately. By releasing the beliefs, attachments, and karmic baggage that support a life strategy, it becomes possible to remain centered in the ever present now, develop good character, and enhance the functions of the subtle so that more life-affirming energy can radiate freely.

    Ep. 48 – Learn the Basics, Liberate Yourself

    This episode of the Inner Awareness Podcast emphasizes the importance of learning the basics before engaging more deeply in energy work or the work of enlightenment. Without experience and knowledge, there is a risk of using the wrong kind of power, especially when it comes from past-life patterns that are self-limiting. The key is not what you can do with power, but the motivation behind it. If the motivation is self-serving, it must be recognized and released, otherwise action remains tainted. The foundation is detachment, mental discipline, strong boundaries, and the ability to center yourself in your authentic mind. You must also know the difference between authentic and inauthentic thoughts and feelings, and understand that bliss and universal feminine energy are more powerful than any field with individual qualities. When you are overwhelmed, it’s essential to remain centered, resist, and wait with patience and perseverance until Shakti supports you with insight and clarity. The episode also makes clear that the dark side is persistent and adapts, which is why you must be prepared. Trying to do too much at once or seeking to progress to quickly without a foundation creates risk. Instead, you should work step by step, dealing with one thing at a time, and staying steady under pressure. By learning the basics, developing character, and remaining centered, you can achieve the stability you need to face challenges and continue to progress.

    Ep. 47 – More Insights Into Karma

    This episode of the Inner Awareness Podcast looks at how karma from past lives influences someone’s present life and explains that it can be confused with influences from early childhood. From the time in the womb, a child is affected by projections from their mother, family members, and traumatic experiences. In addition, the “poisons of the ancestors” and the collective karma of the family, tribe, or nation can influence the child. Karma is both a principle that declares that you will reap what you sow and it’s a substance known as karmic baggage stored in the subtle field. It does not fully emerge in early childhood, because the I has not yet developed. As the I forms, karmic patterns begin to express themselves through an individual’s personality and relationships. The people in the birth family and the relationships a person forms are predetermined by karma, they’re not accidental, but connected to past life attachments. It some cases an individual will be compelled to interact with people in order to learn lessons or how to follow their Dharma. The episode emphasizes that nobody alive has been incarnated with a blank slate. To liberate yourself from Self – limiting attachments you need to look inward, develop discernment, and learn to recognize and release karmic baggage within your subtle field.

    Ep. 46 – Are People Stupid?

    This episode of the Inner Awareness Podcast looks at why people act in ways that seem unintelligent and explains that this is not inherent, but connected to identification with the I and attachment to the field of Maya. Although human beings are eternal, enlightened, and divine, they ignore this by pursuing life strategies that gratify the I, often supported by culture and society where qualities like entitlement, competitiveness, and arrogance are valued over patience, perseverance, and non-harming. Stupidity in this sense is giving up of responsibility and refusing to see clearly. It is reinforced by fear, the desire for comfort, social pressure, karma, and the influence of non-physical beings, all of which make it difficult to change patterns or shift perspective. In addition, everyone enters life with different priorities, and unless transcendence becomes their highest priority, progress remains limited. The episode also emphasizes how difficult this process is: the mind can deceive you, the body is not prepared for higher levels of energy, and old karma and attachments create resistance. By paying attention and looking at yourself honestly, you begin to see what is actually happening, that makes room for self-knowledge to emerge from within.
