"Who do you Think you Are?" (episode #40) - Rev. Patricia Zogar
Warning! This episode contains explicit language. In this episode, Glenn and I had the delightful opportunity to spend some time in conversation with the thoughtful, funny, insightful, one-time nurse, actor, aboriginal ally, addict supporter, actor, and ordained minister - among other things - Rev. Patricia Zogar. Rev. Patricia's very candid response of, "I don't have a clue" opened the door to a wonderful, contemplative, inspirational, and often humorous conversation about Consciousness, and how, in Rev. Patricia's mind, we are a blend of the memories of what we've done, the attention focused on "right now," and the aspirations for the future. She told us about her initial resistance to Christianity and the idea that people need to be saved from something (by Jesus); about not apologizing for who you are; and, about balancing personal vs. collective reality. We talked about EST/Landmark, affirmative prayer, how saying "thank you" turns God into a person, and how vital it is for inclusivity to be demonstrated rather than just talked about. We talked Jesus, Buddha, and paganism, and how important it is to see and connect with the beauty of nature. Rev. Patricia talked about how everything and nothing is important, and that, even after decades of being on her spiritual journey, she continues to go through dark nights of the soul. Accountability, discomfort, noticing, "All is well," sense of purpose, waiting to die, cancer, generational trauma, attention vs. intention, the mind/body connection, Christian Science vs. New Thought - these are just some of the topics that bubbled up during our time together. This and so much more. . . ! Plus, there's the super fun Rapid Fire Question Round at the end! A new episode posted at least twice a month!
