From Lecture to Lived Experience | Episode 161

55 minutes

In this episode, we explore the yogic concept of Paramatma—the inner guide or Supersoul—and how true teaching and therapy come alive when we listen deeply, both to ourselves and to those we serve. We reflect on pedagogy, presence, and whether healing is best led by agenda or by attunement.

We discussed:

The meaning of Paramatma and divinity within the individual soul

Teaching through lecture versus personal sharing—and why lived experience matters

Reflections from the Bhakti Yoga Conference

Whether there is a “right” way to do therapy: client-led process versus therapist agenda
