Join Swami Padmanabha and Ilia Delio, a Franciscan nun, author, theologian, scientist and much more, as they explore the importance of language and how it shapes our experience of reality. Carrying the unique yet mutual threads of their traditions, the conversation flowed through reflections on:

•Evolution as our reality in relationship

•Love as the core energy of the universe

•Suffering as part of loving

•Compassionate expansion of the heart

•The interests of God: adventure, play, love

•Creativity and chaos

•Unfinished humanity not failed humanity

•This earth has the potential to be heaven

•Navigating technology - the nature of it as an extension of personhood

•Religion’s responsibility to enter into and shape the discussion of technology

•Technology of seen as solving “the problem of God”

•A flat humanity will mistake emotional mimicking of technology as love

and much much more…

Ep #9: A NEW LANGUAGE FOR THE FUTURE | feat. Ilia Delio

The Free Radical Podcast is a creative encounter among like-minded and like-hearted spirits, regardless of their background or affiliation—or even non-affiliation. Following the call of our 21st Century spirituality, we embrace a trans-institutional commitment to spirituality rather than an institutionalized version of it. It is not so much about the demarkation of buildings but the exploration of hearts, not so much about fitting in but about deeply belonging—not so much about mere holiness but about wholeness as well.  And it is the freedom born in the fire of these shared hearts who deeply belong to a process of becoming fully whole, fully persons, that creates the sacred space to step into new ways of being, deeper ways of being, radical—to the core—ways of being….and being what?….Being fully integrated individuals, whose humanity contextualizes their spirituality.Swami Padmanabha is an author, monk, and spiritual mentor who has just published his second book, called "Radical Personalism: Revival Manifesto for Proactive Devotion." 


     The format of the podcast is not an interview as much as spontaneous exploration in dialogue, encouraging a multi-trait interdisciplinary method of approaching how we understand something—of looking at it from different angles and perspectives. We don’t expect to agree on everything with each person, but we do expect to use our differences as a way to approach each other, rather than an excuse for further distancing. The time has come to let down the draw bridges and learn how to deeply relate with ourselves, each other, and the world in meaningful ways. This experience of mutual enlightenment can be also called “Collective Introspection.” This joint reflection is probably “the highest form of worship and communion. Restricted to the individual, this power of reflection remains limited and rudimentary. It is only in connection to kindred spirits that we can discover our own depth and wholeness. In other words, the deepest form of reflection can be developed only in communion with others. It is essentially a social phenomenon.” (excerpt from Radical Personalism: Revival Manifesto for Proactive Devotion”). 


     The Free Radical Podcast attempts to invoke sacred space and sacred conversation through deep expressive exchanges with like-minded souls with whom we share one same purpose in mind and heart, that purpose being to align our lives with the loving will of the Sweet Absolute, and to compassionately point to those things that need to be addressed for that miracle to continue happening in each of us.


     Please join the conversation. It won’t be the same without you.
