When my own path took an unexpected turn, leaving the structured serenity of monastic life for the corporate hustle, the lessons of ancient scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita and the Ramayana proved to be an unexpected guide. Alongside my friends Nāma and Keli Woods, we share a heartfelt conversation about the inner workings of spiritual growth amidst life’s setbacks. We dissect the concept of 'falling upwards'—the idea that our greatest challenges can lead to even greater evolution of the soul. Our discussion reveals how an easy life may not always benefit our spiritual development, and we contemplate the importance of sincerity and perseverance in one's spiritual practice, diving into the Gita's wisdom to uncover the sanctity in steadfastness.
