In this groundbreaking episode of the Sacred Dynamics Podcast, Ro and J explore the transformative and often misunderstood nature of love. They dismantle conventional ideas about love as an external or conditional concept, offering instead a spiritual perspective based on Self-realization and the dissolution of the ego.
