The Spirits in Poetry - A Spiritual Podcast

Welcome back to the Spirits in Poetry Frequency Podcast!

This episode is a conversation on the act of Surrender and what it means to let go. This episode was recorded during my own struggle with surrender at a time where the universe is really testing me. Everything I am, everything we are is unraveling and we are forced to experience the destruction of all structures we have invested in. 

But it's going to be okay.

This episode is on what it means to be mindful of self and it is organized differently than the previous episodes. 

This episode was inspired by the Netflix show The Midnight Gospel as well as my own experiences with my mental health and spirit through the corona virus quarantine. 

This episode covers mindfulness and how we can be mindful of ourselves, being present in our lives, and confronting the reality of death.

This episode is a conversation on fasting which was recorded during the quarantine of the corona virus and during my very first dry fast.

The podcast is split into two parts: before my fast, and after my fast.

In this episode I talk a little about the Tao Te Ching and the Egyptian Book of the Dead. I also dedicate a portion to talking about the Tibetan Book of the Dead and the way I am preparing to die. 

As usual, there is a poem at the end. Please consider rating and reviewing the podcast. And tune in every other Sunday for a new episode!

The Spirits in Poetry is back every other Sunday!

This episode begins with a discussion on Soul Fragmentation, which is what happens when a piece of the soul is lost. Soul Fragmentation is common and can result in mental illnesses like depression and anxiety but there are ways to work through it and even avoid it. 

But what if Soul Fragmentation is a normal process? What is the purpose of the soul fragmenting and what can we learn from it?

Also what does any of this have to do with finishing a piece of poetry?

Tune in and find out!

This episode is dedicated to breaking down the concept of the Ego, using both Sigmund Freud's and Carl Jung's definition and then contrasting it with the Jungian concept of Self. 

The ego is the "I" while the Self is the part of us that is connected to everything. This episode details the properties and beliefs that come attached to both minds while also illustrating the relationship they carry between themselves. 

Where do we create from? What does it mean to truly be your self?

Tune in and fine out.

This is part 2 of the talk on Free Will, Determinism, and Magick.

Last episode we left off on the words of Frater Xavier and Steven Pressfield that say that if you are not taking charge of your self and your will then you are giving that power away to an external entity. 

Who or what is this external entity? 

This episode answers this question, pointing to the existence of beings that would prefer that you give away your spiritual, physical, and mental autonomy to things like social media, trends, and political parties. 

What does it mean to be master of self?

Let's dive in.

Welcome back!

Are we free? Do we possess the freedom of unique, individual choice? Or are we ruled by a supreme destiny that has already planned our lives for us? And if we are, where does this destiny come from?

This episode is dedicated to breaking down the concepts of Libertarian Free Will and Hard Determinism and relating it to the purpose of our lives, of why we are here. How can these concepts assist us in analyzing the way we live our lives? And how can we make the necessary changes to ensure that we are our true selves?

This is a part 1 episode. Part 2 will drop this next Sunday!

This episode is about the concept of Duality which is explained through the Daoist principle of Yin and Yang. What does duality mean and how can we transcend this concept to find true oneness in ourselves? Is it even possible? How does this concept of dualism hurt us as humans and as spiritual beings?

This episode is dedicated to purpose. What is our purpose? What is life's purpose? A question that many have posed before me. What does it truly mean to exist and why should we ask this question?

The main theme of this episode is that truth is always simple. And when it comes to humans and our habit of complicating the act of life, sometimes we just need to take a step back and go back to basics.

Thank you for tuning in. The next episode will deal with Balance and Unity!
