    Episode 196: Goddess Sophia & The Deep Christ: The Lost Creation Story of Cosmic Twin Sophia & Why Her Wisdom Is Essential for Humanity with Diana Kelly & Dan Morse

    In this episode I interview the amazing Diana Kelly and Dan Morris about the lost creation story of Sophia and her critical role in understanding the times we are living in which also offers rare insights into who we are, where we came from and how we might fulfill our latent potential as human beings. We discuss current events happening in the Middle East, and Diana and Dan’s discoveries that have led them to understand the influences surrounding us today through the wisdom of Sophia. We also discuss the origins of the Gnostics, their love of Sophia, the tragic story of her entrapment, the Archons (Dark Forces) that influence humanity, and how we can liberate ourselves from the forces that bind us in limiting beliefs and patterns of fear and trauma through the divine spark of Sophia that dwells within us. In addition to exploring her mysteries, we reveal Sophia’s relationship to Jesus Christ at a deeper level and discuss the symbols and maps of meaning that are all around us, that can help us to find our way through the darkness. As the role of the divine feminine in the world accelerates, so too does the urgency of our collective spiritual development, and our relationship to our masculine and feminine counterparts. As the path of Sophia Christos unfolds, we witness a time of great upheaval, spiritual activism, and a lifting of the veils of illusion. Join us to explore the incredible potency of these times through the mystery of Sophia and her cosmic twin, and learn how you can “take up your sword” with compassion as daughters and son’s of the Sophia-Christos to defeat injustice, tyranny, and enslavement on this planet once and for all. Takeaways Sophia represents the divine feminine wisdom and is a powerful archetype for understanding our spiritual journey. *The story of Sophia’s descent and the influence of archons and the patriarchy highlight the challenges we face in reclaiming our power and connection to the divine. *The awakening and revelation that comes from understanding the sacred masculine and feminine can help us navigate the complexities of relationships and create a more balanced and harmonious world. Communication and emotional attunement are essential for building healthy and fulfilling partnerships. Disrupting patterns and practicing transparent communication are essential for healthy relationships. Recognizing traumatic responses and gaining insight can lead to healing and growth. Working together and viewing relationship issues as shared problems can foster understanding and resolution. Accessing wisdom and guidance, whether from spiritual sources or within oneself, can enhance relationships and personal development. Consciousness and awareness play a crucial role in navigating relationships and personal growth. Exploring the mysteries of Sophia and reading symbols can provide deeper insights into the spiritual journey. Balancing masculine and feminine energies is important for personal fulfillment and harmonious relationships. Finding the right balance between activism and compassion is crucial in creating positive change. The urgency of spiritual development is emphasized in addressing global challenges and personal growth. Reclaiming truth and overcoming archonic influence are essential for personal and collective transformation. Tuning in and connecting to a higher frequency can help navigate the turmoil of the world. Women’s voices need to be heard and speaking out is essential for change. The sacred masculine has a role in supporting and amplifying women’s voices. Building relationships based on care and understanding is crucial for creating meaningful change. Recognizing the power dynamics at play and using relationships to bridge divides can lead to transformation. We are entering times of immense revelation and change. Bringing a sense of sacredness to everyday life can lead to a deeper connection with the divine. Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Background

    Episode 194: Sarah Marshank - Selfistry: The Artistry Of The Self & Listening For Wisdom In The Wilderness

    In this episode, I dive into a deep and nourishing conversation with Sarah Marshank author of Being Selfish and Selfistry: A Guide to Embodying Timeless Spiritual Wisdom. We talk about her own journey from escort to monk to spiritual guide, and what she discovered about what it takes to become an authentic, grounded, creative and integrated being in these challenging times. Join us as she reveals her path tol deep spirituality without the dogma, and discover how to "listen for the genius in the room” as we practice how to become wisely selfish so that we can cultivate the deep wisdom that always sits waiting for us in the depths of the darkness. "Studies estimate nearly 25% of the world’s population does not ascribe to any religion and roughly 25% of people in the US consider themselves “spiritual but not religious.” Many of these people are searching for a life of integrity amid an increasingly polarized global landscape filled with religious extremism, political turmoil, and environmental uncertainty. Disillusioned but seeking to contribute to the well-being of the planet, many are finding guidance in emergent integrative systems that develop all aspects of the modern human: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and social. “Selfistry” is one of those systems that offers a unique and simple approach. “Selfistry” offers a fresh take on embodying authentic spiritual principles. It is an innovative and integrative framework for self-reflection-an opportunity for the genuinely curious to reconsider their relationship with themselves and the cosmos.” Sarahs Marshank Bio Sarah Marshank is the founder of Selfistry, an integrative system for mastering the art of being human. She is the author of the award winning memoir Being Self-ish: My Journey from Escort to Monk to Grandmother, where she tells the story of her decade in spiritual retreat. She is also the author of Selfistry: A Guide to Embodying Timeless Spiritual Wisdom. Her teachings weave together spirituality, psychology, and neuroscience in an innovative way — integrating Eastern and Western philosophies with meditative and somatic practices. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sarah teaches and speaks internationally, consults for organizations, and works one-on-one with individuals. When not sharing Selfistry, you might find her walking along the beach, shopping at the local farmer's market with her husband, or making art with her granddaughters. *The topics we cover in this episode: * 00:03 Introduction and Welcome 00:26 Guest Introduction: Sarah Marshank 02:57 Exploring the Power of Female Collaboration 03:27 The Importance of Partnership and Trust 04:17 Overcoming the Sisterhood Wound 04:32 The Power of Women in Partnership 04:45 The Art of Being Human 05:28 The Role of Women in Times of Crisis 06:59 The Emergence of Wise Elders 14:50 The Importance of Slowing Down 23:02 The Journey of Self Discovery 37:45 The Power of Emptiness and Fullness 41:16 The Artistry of Life 42:32 Embracing Your True Self 43:12 Breaking Free from Societal Expectations 43:28 Invitation to Join the Unbecoming Coaching Circle 44:09 Exploring the Fear of Self-Reflection 45:15 Understanding the Trance of Self-Doubt 45:38 The Power of Self-Inquiry 46:06 The Journey to Self-Understanding 46:54 The Importance of a Guide in Self-Discovery 48:07 The Artistry of Self-Realization 48:41 Embracing Simplicity and Connection 49:24 Reorienting Our Relationships and Conversations 49:46 The Power of Presence and Self-Consideration 51:24 The Witness: A Tool for Self-Understanding 51:44 The Role of Fear in Self-Discovery 55:03 The Power of Community in Self-Discovery 55:55 The Wisdom of Embracing Both Light and Darkness 01:06:08 The Role of Sisterhood in Scaling Self-Discovery 01:14:29 The Power of Storytelling in Self-Discovery 01:20:39 The Journey from Escort to Monk to Grandmother 01:21:53 Invitation to Join Selfistry Retreats 01:22:50 Conclusion and Invitation to Co

    Episode 192: Oren Jay Sofer - Your Heart Was Made for This: Contemplative Practices to Meet a World In Crisis with Courage, Integrity, and Love

    Perhaps upon first glance, when the terror of the world is breathing down our necks, we refuse to see how capable we are of meeting it. Perhaps we think, our hearts were not made to contend with the immensity of what’s happening- the chaos the sensory input, the imminent threat of climate change, or the video footage of the atrocities happening around the world in Israel and beyond. And yet, we are equipped with an incredible potential for compassion and resilience - to grow and learn from challenge, and to biologically, neurologically, and spiritually, adapt and change to meet the times we are living in. My Guest, Oren Jay Sofer, believes that every one of us can transform and grow, even in the midst of the heartbreak. In his new book Your Heart Was Made for This: Contemplative Practices for Meeting a World in Crisis with Courage, Integrity, and Love , Oren reveals how we can tap into our full capacity for peace and goodness by cultivating a practice day by day with tiny steps and many other revelations for living in this time of extreme chaos and change. "I like to think of the human organism as an instrument," he says. "And this whole journey I invite readers on is about how well you know how to play your instrument. Can you hit the notes of compassion and joy and generosity and gratitude and energy and integrity?” In this episode he walks us through where to start exploring the amazing capacities that we have as human beings- not as a blueprint but to develop the resources inside so that we can each play the role we're uniquely called to play. Key points discussed in this episode include: The importance of keeping our hearts open during painful and uncertain times The inspiration behind Oren's latest book, Your Heart Was Made for This An exploration of contemplative practice and its role in reflecting upon meaning and purpose in life Various forms that contemplative practice can take for diverse individuals The healing power of letting go, and the practice of renunciation The interconnection between inner personal transformation and larger societal changes The critical role of forgiveness in finding inner peace and restoration Oren Jay Sofer teaches meditation and communication internationally. He holds a degree in comparative religion from Columbia University and is a Certified Trainer of Nonviolent Communication. He's also the author of several books, including the best-seller Say What You Mean: A Mindful Approach to Nonviolent Communication and his latest book, Your Heart Was Made for This: Contemplative Practices to Meet a World In Crisis with Courage, Integrity, and Love. A husband and a father, Oren lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he enjoys cooking, spending time in nature, and home woodworking projects. Special Guest: Oren Jay Sofer.

  6. Episode 191: Paul Levy - Undreaming Wetiko: Breaking the Spell of the Nightmare Mind Virus

    08.12.2023

    Episode 191: Paul Levy - Undreaming Wetiko: Breaking the Spell of the Nightmare Mind Virus

    In this episode, I introduce Paul Levy, a pioneer in spiritual emergence and the author of Undreaming Wetiko: Breaking the Spell of the Nightmare Mind Virus. I’ve been fascinated by this concept for years, since it ties in with how I describe the way the “trance of unworthiness” impacts women. In fact, I think Wetiko and “the trance” may be the same thing, just impacting men and women differently. For men, it’s a consuming and a tendency to destruct on the outside, for Women, it happens more covertly, turned inward on themselves instead of a tendency of harming others. Ultimately, Wetiko is a term, aptly named by Native Americans to describe what they saw as a "mental illness" that came with white colonizer settlers who aggressively stole land from the indigenous, and were driven to kill and take what was not theirs. They would destroy and consume, even at their own expense, and behaved in ways that seemed “possessed” as if by an evil spirit. Paul expands on this by sharing his personal encounter with Wetiko- which he believes is a byproduct of unhealed generational trauma that gets passed on. His encounter is hrough his father's abusive behavior and his subsequent realization of its pervasive nature. In this episode we explore how Wetiko manifests in our psyche, and how it influences our "collective madness” - the profound impact it has on individuals and society. Many would consider what’s playing out in Israel and Palestine a form of Wetiko. Paul emphasizes that we must recognize darkness as a form of illumination and we discusses the role of personal projection in the perpetuation of Wetiko. We delve into the shamanic archetype of the wounded healer, healing trauma, and retrieving lost parts of the soul as a means of healing Wetiko. The conversation also touches on childhood experiences, ancestral trauma, how to break generational patterns, and the power of expressing our creativity as our access to healing. The power of being disruptors in our families and society, challenging the status quo and creating change. *Throughout the episode we also cover: * What it means to “awaken” from the dream Mass Psychosis and how we could see this through Covid What the nightmare of our reality is The parallels between Wetiko and the trance of unworthines How Wetiko consumes us The importance of awakening to our true nature Embracing grief, and forgiving ourselves for the harm we have caused Nurturing our inner creative spirit Questioning our perceptions of reality The importance of connecting with others to transform the collective unconscious The power of being disruptors in our families and society, challenging the status quo and creating change Topics discussed: Wetiko, spiritual emergence, Carl Jung, Tibetan Buddhism, colonization, mass psychosis, mental illness, psychiatry, collective madness, projection, shamanic archetype, trauma, ancestral trauma, generational patterns, expressed creativity, perception of reality, grief, interconnectedness, creative spirit.

    Episode 190: Glynda-Lee Hoffmann - The Secret Dowry of Eve: The Hidden Treasure of the Feminine Revealed

    The real revelation came when Glynda-Lee Hoffmann started studying the Hebrew letters of the Qabalah,their patterns of energy and the profound messages they hold for us. In a moment of awe, she discovered the explosive birth of the universe encoded within the Genesis story that exposes an incredible secret about the role of Women in our human story. The Qabalah is known as “the language of light” or as some say ”a language for the revelation of the divine light” which reveals to us a much different interpretation of the human story as told in Genesis. Now, before you jump to any conclusions about the relevancy of the ancient story of Genesis in todays “modern times” let me assure you that this particular message is right on time with what’s happening in the world, and is actually profoundly hopeful and inspiring! My guest, Glynda- Lee Hoffmann’s remarkable work plays like a detective story through ciphers, clues, ancient mythology and quantum science! If you’d ever listened to Jill Bolte Taylors Ted Talk called “My Stroke of Insight” then you know how profoundly inspiring her message has been as one of the most popular TED talks ever recorded! Imagine then, making a discovery about the “feminine” part of the human brain and where we are now in our human evolution that takes Jill’s Bolte Taylors “stroke of insight” even further into new territories that expand our understanding about the potential and possibility of where we are headed. As far as Glynda and her incredible discoveries are concerned, we are at the Apex of what she insists up until now we have been in “the 7th day of creation” bringing us right to the precipice and potential timely portal into the New World! Will our primal brains, and our dominant masculine aspects keep us in lower functioning neural patterning leading to our inevitable self destruction, or will we actually transcend our limited way of seeing the world and our place in it as the feminine aspects of the brain comes online so that we can cross over the threshold into the New Earth? Tune in to find out more in this incredible episode with Glynda- Lee Hoffman author of The Secret Dowry Of Eve: Women’s Role in Developmental Consciousness. Prepare to be amazed by what she shares about our potential fruition as the feminine (or angelic) aspect of our brains begin to blossom! Topics covered: Glynda-Lee’s work challenges the traditional narrative of Eve's subservience and offers a fresh perspective on her role in the Genesis story Glynda-Lee dives deep into her lifelong study of Kabbalah Combined with scientific knowledge she unveils the true significance of Eve's contribution to our transcendence and wholeness. Learn how it's Eve's inner world, the feminine awareness within us, that completes and empowers us as humans. Unlock the hidden secrets of the feminine and the incredible fertility of our universe. Unravel the hidden symbolism within Genesis, Kabbalah/ Quabalah and fairy tales Explore the connection between feminine energy, personal growth, and the path to a more nurturing culture. Transform your perspective to a whole new understanding of Eve's role in human consciousness as the Hero of our Human story. Glynda-Lee shares a transformative experience that unveils the secret of the universe's inception Understanding the role of the prefrontal cortex in personal and social growth (Where we are now!) We examine and challenge patriarchal viewpoints and emphasize feminine empowerment through the lens of the Qabalah The significance of the number seven in biblical contexts. The integration of feminine and masculine aspects of human awareness and how they are interdependent Storytelling as a potent tool for communication and change. Special Guest: Glynda-Lee Hoffman.

    Episode 189: Celene Lillie - The Thunder Perfect Mind: Defying Conventional Gender Rules to Embrace Union & Divinity

    What would it mean if the voice of God were a woman? Many of you are familiar with my beloved returning guest and Scholar, Dr. Celene Lillie, from our episode together about her book The Rape of Eve an episode that continues to be one of my most popular. Today she joins me for an inspiring, evocative, gender-bending, and ever-twisting exploration of an ancient text known as The Thunder Perfect Mind, the self-portrait of a divine feminine being. In this episode we discuss this ancient text which sustains itself for some nine pages of papyrus - sometimes commanding the scene like a goddess, other times disdained and thrown down in the dirt, she keeps challenging those around her. Still other times, she shape-shifts into a masculine form or intentionally contradicts conventional expectations of her previous utterance. Like many other important ancient scripts, The Thunder: Perfect Mind was discovered in rural Egypt, where the dry air inhibits decay of ancient material. Thunder belongs to the increasingly famous Nag Hammadi collection of what appear to be mostly early Christian documents, all found in the same jar in the hills above the Nile. It is likely that the Nag Hammadi documents had been collected by an early desert monastic community. Found in the mid-twentieth century and translated within several decades afterward, these documents were initially published in English in 1977, but only accessible to the general public within the last generation. Thunder was one of 52 Nag Hammadi documents. Thunder has nevertheless already distinguished itself in public consciousness and has captured the imaginations of many. It stands vigil at the beginning of award-winning novelist Toni Morrison’s works Jazz and Paradise. Umberto Eco also cited it in his novel Foucault’s Pendulum. Julie Dash’s award-winning 1991 feature film, Daughters of the Dust, opens with a long citation fromThunder. Its text also anchors a 2005 film by Jordon and Ridley Scott, whose shortened version has appeared widely as a commercial for Prada women’s fashions. More in this episode: Why you can not utter the name of God in Hebrew and how it can be spoken through the breath Learn how women once occupied a huge range of possibilities before patriarchal rule Hear the deeper meanings of THUNDER and why these texts have been considered “seminal” Learn why this piece pushes against our contemporary notions of what is possible and inspires our imaginations Why the word “occupy” can be so problematic and how we can bring more nuance to our understanding of embodiment How the poem THE THUNDER PERFECT MIND invites us to claim all of our “stuff” and be with the messiness of our lives without being diminished by them How Human Design and The Gene Keys give us freedom from being “all things to all people” Why The Thunder Perfect Mind is medicine for what is happening in the world at this time Celene Lillie is Lecturer in Religious Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder; an Adjunct Professor at the University of Oklahoma and The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology; and the Dean of the Westar Institute's forthcoming Academy (launching this Fall). Her scholarly work focuses the New Testament, the Nag Hammadi Codices, and other early literature of the Jesus movement, with a particular interest in gender and violence. She is the author of The Rape of Eve: The Transformation of Roman Ideology in Three Early Retellings of Genesis; co-author (with Jaeda Calloway, Maia Kotrosits, Justin Lasser, and Hal Taussig) of The Thunder: Perfect Mind: A New Translation and Introduction; and Director of Translations for A New New Testament (edited by Hal Taussig). If I were to name one connected specifically to my work, I'm interested in bringing forth voices that are typically marginalized or hidden in early Christian literature. Special Guest: Celene Lillie.
