Episode 55 of the Sacred Dynamics Podcast explores the nature of time, our attachment to it, and the illusion it creates in the spiritual journey. Ro and J guide listeners to observe time not as reality, but as a measurement within the dream of existence.
The duo explore the illusory nature of time—from its disappearance in deep meditation to its fierce, transformative presence through the archetypes of Kaali and Kaal Bhairav. Drawing on Vedic and yogic teachings, we uncover the non-dual truth that what is real never changes, and invite you to witness life’s movement without losing yourself in it.
The conversation blends spiritual insight with practical guidance: rest in flawless awareness, play your role in the world without rushing, and root yourself in the eternal presence beyond beginnings and ends. Along the way, we touch on the numerology of 55 (“Phi + Phi”), cycles of Yugas and Kalpas, and the alchemical balance of freedom and change.
The episode closes with an invitation to recognize your timeless Self - the witness of the cosmic play - and to let go of identification with the ticking clock of life.
