    TOM DASWe hope you enjoy this insightful and different Non Duality perspective from Tom Das. I really enjoyed our chat.About Tom:From an early age, he was exposed to practices such as aikido, yoga, andmeditation, which instilled a sense of spiritual curiosity in him.As he grew older, he discovered the teachings of Jesus, Swami Vivekananda, and Jiddu Krishnamurti, which sparked a deep interest in the direct experience of God. He immersed himself in spiritual texts, devouring works on Buddhism, Zen, Taoism, Mystic Christianity, Vedanta, and Dzogchen.Despite pursuing a career in science and mathematics, his spiritual journey remained a priority, leading him to explore and seek answers for over 15-20 years. Along the way, he discovered Sri Ramana Maharshi, whose teachings resonated with him on a deep level and sparked a sense of overwhelming love and devotion.Contact Tom via his website.https://tomdas.com/tag/thoughts/Buy us a coffee to keep the show on the road.

I really enjoyed our chat.Contact glad via his website.https://karnigilad.comAbout GiladLike any living being, “I” am an ever-present being that is not separated by individual perspective, even though it seems to be. The nature of Self is oneness. The nature of Self is ever-present. The nature of Self eternal joy and freedom. All social problems, from the individual level to the global level, are rooted in misunderstanding our true Self and believing in the false sense of separation. My work is in dissolving the mind's false sense of separation and limitation and facilitating the truest expression of Self from the person I am with, bringing unity of Self, business, leadership, and society in alignment with the oneness of our nature.Buy us a coffee to keep the show on the road.

Thank You !https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thediscardTJoin us on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/thediscardedcompassIn this interview the delightful Naho Owada talks with John about her awakening and some very interesting non duality pointers.Naho Owada websitehttps://www.nahoowada.comIt was before the age of one when Naho sensed that humanity, this world, was not a comfortable place. Her mother told her that she first noticed Naho's experience of the world while she was in her baby seat. Naho appeared to be in shock. She said that often her eyes would be wide and moving from left to right, as if she were seeing evil or in terror. Naho was very tense.Somewhere around the age of three, there was a natural sense that saw clearly the loneliness or suffering underneath all humans. Naho could see in the faces that there was something hiding, an unease underneath the smile. Naho was always feeling uncomfortable.By the time Naho turned five, she asked her mother why she had to continue to live.It was in her teen years that Naho began her deep search in finding the cause of the uncomfortableness, of which she never found. Around the age of 20, Naho realized she would not find the answer where she was looking. She didn't experience any tragedies in her life and therefore knew that it was not the story of the life that was causing her suffering.At the age of 25, she met a man who had had an experience of this. He told her that the cause of suffering was the phantom self. She began to see that wherever she went, there she would be. It seemed to be following her; this ‘I'. She couldn't escape the self that seemed to be having such uncomfortableness. It was from there that she knew she found the answer she was searching for.It became evident that everyone is born with a sense of lack that comes from apparent separation--but this has nothing to do with the story of their apparent life. People try to find the answer in their storyline and that is because they think if they change the story, it will bring them happiness. That isn't true. That will only bring relief for a short period of time. It began to be obvious that the person we believe our ‘self' to be, is a complete illusion.Soon thereafter, there came an apparent moment (while on her way to the organic supermarket) that the illusion completely vanished. What was left is everything, without a center.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/thediscardedcompass/donations

He was a seeker, and a questioner.As a child he was one of those annoying kids who always asked "why?"He grew up in a small village in The Fens in Cambridgeshire where he still lives today.Loving sport he became a PE teacher, but secretly always wanted to dance.One day whilst leading a group of students on a hike in Derbyshire he was walking up a rocky wooded hill.He stopped. Time stopped. Afterwards he described it as,"I knew the rocks and trees and they knew me.I was the rocks and trees and they were me."That's not really how it was, but that seemed like the only way he could make sense of it.After that 'revelation', things were never the same. His seeking was now focussed on finding an answer to what had seemed to have been revealed. He found the message of non-duality, and was bitten. There was immediate and undeniable resonance. There was absolutely no doubting that this was it! There followed many, exciting, frustrating and painful years of being a non-duality addict. He bought every book that even vaguely resonated, watched endless YouTube, promiscuously flitting from one speaker to another looking for the secret nugget that would lead to liberation. He learnt a lot. He understood a lot. It became obvious that all his knowledge and understanding were worthless, and he fell into despair. The despair lasted, until it stopped. In its place was emptiness, peace, silence, and love, but mostly emptiness.Of course, none of that happened.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/thediscardedcompass/donations

The paradox is that THIS, this appearance, isn't what it appears to be. It is and it isn't. It's no-thing being something. It's emptiness appearing as everything. It's unified appearing as divided or separated.Within this apparent paradox arises an experience. That experience is, that this appearance is happening to 'me'. That experience is not paradoxical; it feels very real. There's no space, no room, no possibility for the reality, that 'this' isn't happening to ‚me'. That experience of duality is dissatisfying. It's uncomfortable. Out of that experience arises the need to bring about a wholeness, to cover up the feeling that what is, isn't complete, to make the feeling that it's not okay - okay. Out of that arises the need for good and bad and right and wrong. So this appearance then turns into ‚my life‘, and my life is the need to make 'this' better, 'this' good, to find out or to solve the problem of why I don't feel like it's okay, why I feel like something's wrong, why I feel like I need to seek, to find something else.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/thediscardedcompass/donations

Jac talks with john about her insights and also the new organisation she set up with others called the ASI.Jac is an authentic and very intuitive teacher who cares deeply about her teaching and students.Jac talks about the locked in trauma that can prevail unseen in students and especially teachers that believe they are beyond integration.The ASI was set up when Jac saw the need for spiritual teachers to have a support resource and also a reference for spiritual teachers to engage with and learn from.Spiritual Integrity and integration are some of the topics talks about in this episode.Please like , subscribe and donate to keep our podcast going below.https://redcircle.com/shows/thediscar...Jac O'Keeffe is a spiritual leader with a unique style. Her teachings include pointers to prior to the non-dual state, and she is clear that non-dual awareness is a stepping stone and not a destination. She has high sense perception abilities that she uses with precision to expose, unravel and heal what creates blockages on our spiritual path and in our understanding. Her teachings also cultivate wisdom, honesty, and integrity. She exposes taboos that are usually avoided in spiritual circles and encourages conversations around issues that are fundamental to our human experience.Jac's work is driven by her capacity to envision the possible future of spirituality. Spiritual leadership has been authoritarian for millennia. Perceived as infallible, spiritual teachers were not held accountable. Combine this with an absence of an emphasis on the teacher's personal growth and human evolution, and conditions become ripe for the abuse of power. Now is the time for a systemic change to a new paradigm which is intersectional, inclusive, and mutually receptive. Jac supports the evolution of spiritual leaders and their teaching methods to include accountability and kindness, making spirituality more relevant and applicable to regular life.Jac is a founding member of the Association for Spiritual Integrity (ASI), an organization that encourages the importance of strong ethical principles in the ongoing growth of spiritual communities and their leaders. https://www.spiritual-integrity.orgHer books include Born to Be Free and How to Be a Spiritual Rebel.For more information about Jac visit jac-okeeffe.com.Youtube: https://bit.ly/32CkcPmFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/PriorBeyond/Insight Timer:https://insighttimer.com/jacokeeffeSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/thediscardedcompass/donations

I remember describing it at the time as like a veil being lifted to reveal that what I had always been looking at was what I had always been looking for. I also remember saying that no experience I had ever had could come close to what happened. It was subsequently seen that it wasn't an experience and that it wasn't a happening as nothing in fact had happened. It was a loss, a loss of me and a seeing of life as it truly is; whole and boundless, complete, unconditional love.'https://www.kennethmadden.netSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/thediscardedcompass/donations
