Racism in Spirituality and How to Deal With It | Radhika Das, Keli Woods & Nāma
What does it mean to see all beings with equal vision? Join us on a transformative journey as we navigate the evolving landscape of spirituality and bhakti, focusing on the necessity of adapting timeless principles to various cultural contexts. We discuss the importance of approaching our spiritual journeys with humility, a beginner's mindset, and an openness to new perspectives. Using insights from the Bhagavad Gita, we challenge listeners to embrace a more inclusive spiritual path by recognizing the common humanity in all beings, beyond superficial traits.
Through personal anecdotes, we reveal how unconscious bias and cultural assumptions impact spiritual circles. Hear about surprising encounters that highlight how quickly people judge based on appearances and delve into the presence of racism within the Bhakti yoga community.
Join us as we explore the intersection of spirituality and inclusivity through interfaith dialogue and the issue of cultural appropriation. We also discuss the delicate balance between respecting cultural traditions and avoiding the pitfalls of subtle colonialism. Finally, we highlight the need to distinguish between principles and details in spiritual practice, fostering a more sincere and humble approach to our spiritual journeys. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation that invites you to rethink your spiritual path and embrace a more inclusive perspective.
