The Spirits in Poetry - A Spiritual Podcast

This episode deals with one central question: Does our life have meaning? 

To answer this question we look at three philosophies which struggle with this answer. The first is Nihilism, which says that life is meaningless. Nihilism has two responses: Existentialism which says that we make our own meaning, and Absurdism which says that the best that we can do is accept this absurdity that life is devoid of purpose. 

However I don't believe that the answer to this question is as pessimistic and hopeless as Absurdism believes it to be.

In this episode I reflect on my recent growth and the ways I have become dependent on consistent advancement in my life. Sometimes growth can become addicting and when this happens, frustration surfaces: frustration over where we want to be vs. where we are, frustration over our abilities, frustration over our limitations.

This episode is titled Embracing Darkness because it's centered around the fact that sometimes 'love and light' as a motivating factor is not enough. As human beings we hold within us a dual nature, one of lightness and one of heaviness. And yet we also hold a third nature which is born when we fuse the light and dark together. 

What do we become when we embrace all that we are? The Mayan, Aztec, and Olmec peoples saw this represented as the half-human, half-jaguar figure: the being that lives between worlds, beyond society's moral standards.

This episode is dedicated to answering the question: How do we find our spiritual purpose?

Over the course of the podcast I have answered this question in several ways, many times around the theme: follow your heart. But this episode expands and corrects my previous statements since purpose requires daily effort and dedication. 

This episode also has a lot of self-reflection as I share what I've learned as I continue to follow my own path as an artist.

This episode is centered around depolarization and walking the middle path and how it ties into the theme of this year: letting go of the past. 

The context for this episode include: The High Priestess Tarot card and the Kabbalah Tree of Life. This episode was also channeled and informed through the Akashic Records.

This episode covers depolarization, the middle path, the left/right hand path, how we can let go of the past, sources of trauma, and many other subjects. The ultimate take away is finding peace within the self.

The first episode of season 4 is dedicated to a talk on the importance of valuing ourselves and the love, work, and meaning which we put out into the world. 

This episode discusses the origin of the Faustian Pact with the legend of Doctor Faustus, explores Conscious X's conspiracies about celebrity bodysuits, touches on NFT's and cryptocurrency and the fact that we are heading into a virtual world with the Metaverse. 

All of this culminates into one final point: gratification, that which we crave in the present at the cost of sacrificing our future.

 Greetings to you all! The Spirits in Poetry will return Sunday March 13th. 

This fourth season is dedicated to Free Thoughts where I will challenge myself as a host to explore topics in a way I have not before: without a script. I will still make an effort to fact check all the information that I share, but I want this season to come from the heart instead of the mind.
