Rupert Spira and I met for a second conversation, beginning with one of William Blake's great exclamations of nondual awareness:
“Awake! awake O sleeper of the land of shadows, wake! expand!
I am in you and you in me, mutual in love divine
I am not a God afar off, I am a brother and friend;
Within your bosoms I reside, and you reside in me:
Lo! we are One”
We discussed the meanings of suffering and death that feel so needed and neglected in our times; different possibilities for the experience of time and the value of disagreement, similarly overlooked; the role of the erotic, play and the imagination on this path; and the reality of angels and the guidance of myths.
1:39 The presence of nondualism today

16:59 The true nature of death
23:39 A different experience of time: Chronos, Kairos, Eternity
36:06 The drivers of consumption and desiring heaven on earth
42:29 The value of disagreement
45:59 The erotic, play and standing in love
53:43 The expansive value of the imagination
1:02:54 Messages, angels and hierarchies
1:14:36 Myths and crafts as guides
