Have you ever felt like God disappeared? Like the spiritual path you once found comfort in has become an empty void? If so, you may be experiencing the Dark Night of the Soul—a profound, painful, but deeply transformative spiritual process. In this episode of The Infinite Spark of Being Podcast, Keith explores:

Jack Parsons was a pioneer of modern rocketry and a devoted occultist, bridging the gap between science and mysticism. But why were brilliant minds like Tesla, Newton, and Jung so drawn to the esoteric? What did Parsons see in Thelema, ritual magick, and Aleister Crowley that fueled his groundbreaking discoveries? And what led to his mysterious death?In this episode of The Infinite Spark of Being Podcast, we explore Parsons' relationship with L. Ron Hubbard, the Babylon Working Ritual, and why the scientific elite have long been fascinated with the unseen world.

Simon Mundie is an author, BBC Sports Reporter, and host of “A New Way of Being” Podcast. After spending many years covering elite level sports and getting to know many of the world's leading athletes personally, Simon began to see parallels between what he was witnessing on the sporting field and what he was learning about from the ancient nondual wisdom tradition. He's recently published a book exploring this connection, which this interview focuses on. Expect to learn: — Why success isn't always synonymous with happiness and what we would be wiser to aim for instead. — The key spiritual insights that can be gained from studying the lives of elite level athletes — The importance of doing things for their own sake, and not being overly fixated on the outcome. And more.

Sometimes things get messed up for all the right reasons. God got us, y'all. Ain't no doubt about that. I met today's guest through a mess up - Danielle Waldman,  host of Back to Being Podcast, a somatic practitioner and meaningful community creator. Danny's drive to lead community spaces was born from a lack of intimate relationships in her formative years. After decades of searching for purpose, and years of traveling, Danny was able to swap poor body image, people pleasing, and a good girl mentality for the incredible work she does today as a Somatic practitioner working with "the power of Being in a world full of Doing."    Learn more about Dani's work on IG @dani_autumn_ or at daniautumn.com.

Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.Support the show

Our fourth roundtable episode features a wide-ranging discussion on deconstructing religion, challenging belief, communicating insights, parenting, homeschooling, Jesus, miracles, the transformative power of surrendering false certainty, and much more. An incredible opportunity to discuss four uniquely different paths to seeing through the illusory prison of self-image, roundtable #4 is exactly what we hoped to achieve in Season 2.

Julia interviewed on the State of Being Podcast with Jenna Guihen. From Jenna:  If there is anyone that I know who has weathered the storm of life and mastered the duality of being in pain AND joy, it's Julia. She is a big-hearted human, she is the cheerleader for visionary women and she operates from the sacral like a BOSS. She licks the juice of life and she is teaching me how to be so DEEPLY present. We hope you love this ep.

This week, I shared the following poem in yoga because I find it inspiring for personal practice, both the internal physical practice of yoga and in my larger life. It is called “Love Makes a Bridge” by Bryan Wren: Love makes a bridge from heart to heart, and hand to hand. Love finds a way when laws are blind and freedom banned. Love breaks the walls of language, gender, class, and age. Love gives us wings to slip the bars of every cage. Love lifts the hopes that force and fear have beaten down. Love breaks the chains and gives us strength to stand our ground. Love rings the bells of wanted birth and wedding day. Love guides the hands that promise more than words can say. Love makes a bridge that winds may shake, yet not destroy. Love carries faith through life and death, to endless joy. I believe that we are all here to share love, embrace and lift one another up, and joyfully celebrate life. Certainly we all face our challenges and struggle, and it helps to strive for a life of meaning along the way. In The Artist's Way, Julia Cameron states that the opposite of fear is love, and by treat our inner artist child (or, one could possibly infer, your heart) like a precious object. Yoga is an opportunity to connect mind and heart, to listen within, love ourselves. Dancing is an opportunity to connect with self-expression and celebrate with others. Coaching helps to identify, prioritize, and take action in alignment with our highest values and purpose. My hope is that my students, clients, family, friends, colleagues, and community feel the love coming through in my actions, including my creative and educational work, personal outreach, and even thoughts that sometimes don't come to expression (or in a timely manner). What are your most highly-held values, Essence, & Purpose? Even when I don't discuss it explicitly, the motivation behind everything I create is love. I have made a few relevant podcasts and YouTube videos on related topics to date, such as: "Finding a Related State of Being" Podcast episode 005 "Acknowledgment, Reverence, & Namaste" Podcast episode 012 Acknowledgment & Namaste Yoga Practice YouTube Video "Black Lives Matter and Loving Your Neighbor" Podcast episode 007 Black Lives Matter and Loving Your Neighbor YouTube Video If that's all too woo-woo for you, no worries, I also value my critical and analytical friends, and make lots of content with more of a technical, physical, or artistic focus :) For more information about all of these themes and the work I do, and for lots more free resources, please visit me at ablythecoach.com

Hello!We're in Season 2 of the Being Podcast: New Life.  Today we'll be going through Psalm 33, a passage of hope.“While optimism makes us live as if someday soon things will soon go better for us, hope frees us from the need to predict the future and allows us to live in the present, with the deep trust that God will never leave us alone but will fulfill the deepest desires of our heart... Joy in this perspective is the fruit of hope.” ― Henri J.M. NouwenPsalm 33"1 Let the godly sing for joy to the Lord;    it is fitting for the pure to praise him.2 Praise the Lord with melodies on the lyre;    make music for him on the ten-stringed harp.3 Sing a new song of praise to him;    play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy.4 For the word of the Lord holds true,    and we can trust everything he does.5 He loves whatever is just and good;    the unfailing love of the Lord fills the earth.6 The Lord merely spoke,    and the heavens were created.He breathed the word,    and all the stars were born.7 He assigned the sea its boundaries    and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.8 Let the whole world fear the Lord,    and let everyone stand in awe of him.9 For when he spoke, the world began!    It appeared at his command.10 The Lord frustrates the plans of the nations    and thwarts all their schemes.11 But the Lord's plans stand firm forever;    his intentions can never be shaken.12 What joy for the nation whose God is the Lord,    whose people he has chosen as his inheritance.13 The Lord looks down from heaven    and sees the whole human race.14 From his throne he observes    all who live on the earth.15 He made their hearts,    so he understands everything they do.16 The best-equipped army cannot save a king,    nor is great strength enough to save a warrior.17 Don't count on your warhorse to give you victory—    for all its strength, it cannot save you.18 But the Lord watches over those who fear him,    those who rely on his unfailing love.19 He rescues them from death    and keeps them alive in times of famine.20 We put our hope in the Lord.    He is our help and our shield.21 In him our hearts rejoice,    for we trust in his holy name.22 Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord,    for our hope is in you alone."Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)

Hello!We're in Season 2 of the Being Podcast: New Life.  Today we'll be going through 12:9-18, a passage instructing us how to live a life of love.Rev. Martin Luther King Jr."Love is the greatest force in the universe. It is the heartbeat of the moral cosmos. He who loves is a participant in the being of God."Romans 12:9-18"Don't just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. 10 Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other. 11 Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. 12 Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. 13 When God's people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality.14 Bless those who persecute you. Don't curse them; pray that God will bless them. 15 Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep.16 Live in harmony with each other. Don't be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don't think you know it all!17 Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. 18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone."Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)

Hello!We're in Season 2 of the Being Podcast: New Life!  Today we'll be going through 1 Peter 1:3-7, a passage that reminds us of the new life we've been promised, and the hope ahead.1 Peter 1:3-7"All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, 4 and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay. 5 And through your faith, God is protecting you by his power until you receive this salvation, which is ready to be revealed on the last day for all to see.6 So be truly glad.  There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. 7 These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world."Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)

Hello!We're in Season 2 of the Being Podcast: New Life!  Today we'll be going through Romans 5:3-11, a passage of Jesus laying down his life to give us life, and make us friends of God.Romans 5:3-11"We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. 4 And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. 5 And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.6 When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners. 7 Now, most people would not be willing to die for an upright person, though someone might perhaps be willing to die for a person who is especially good. 8 But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. 9 And since we have been made right in God's sight by the blood of Christ, he will certainly save us from God's condemnation. 10 For since our friendship with God was restored by the death of his Son while we were still his enemies, we will certainly be saved through the life of his Son. 11 So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God."Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)

Hello!We're in Season 2 of the Being Podcast: New Life!  Today we'll be going through John 1:6-18, a passage continuing off of last weeks meditation.  The light has come into the world.  God's unfailing love has come through Jesus Christ.John 1:6-18"God sent a man, John the Baptist, to tell about the light so that everyone might believe because of his testimony. John himself was not the light; he was simply a witness to tell about the light. The one who is the true light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.He came into the very world he created, but the world didn't recognize him. He came to his own people, and even they rejected him. But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are reborn—not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God.So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father's one and only Son.John testified about him when he shouted to the crowds, “This is the one I was talking about when I said, ‘Someone is coming after me who is far greater than I am, for he existed long before me.'”From his abundance we have all received one gracious blessing after another. For the law was given through Moses, but God's unfailing love and faithfulness came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father's heart. He has revealed God to us."Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)

Welcome to our journey through the Psalms.  Today's Meditation is a Lectio Divina (scripture meditation, see the very first podcast for an explanation of Lectio Divina) of Psalm 66.  This is a beautiful reflection of David's encounter with God's presence.In this moment, David is gratefully reminding himself that God's presence is available in the highs and lows, that God's love was present before he was even born, and that God cares about him dearly.Psalm 66Shout joyful praises to God, all the earth!Sing about the glory of his name!    Tell the world how glorious he is.Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds!    Your enemies cringe before your mighty power.Everything on earth will worship you;    they will sing your praises,    shouting your name in glorious songs.” InterludeCome and see what our God has done,    what awesome miracles he performs for peopleHe made a dry path through the Red Sea,    and his people went across on foot.    There we rejoiced in himFor by his great power he rules forever.    He watches every movement of the nations;    let no rebel rise in defiance. InterludeLet the whole world bless our God    and loudly sing his praises.Our lives are in his hands,    and he keeps our feet from stumbling.You have tested us, O God;    you have purified us like silver.You captured us in your net    and laid the burden of slavery on our backs.Then you put a leader over us.    We went through fire and flood,    but you brought us to a place of great abundance.Now I come to your Temple with burnt offerings    to fulfill the vows I made to you—yes, the sacred vows that I made    when I was in deep trouble.That is why I am sacrificing burnt offerings to you—    the best of my rams as a pleasing aroma,    and a sacrifice of bulls and male goats. InterludeCome and listen, all you who fear God,    and I will tell you what he did for me.For I cried out to him for help,    praising him as I spoke.If I had not confessed the sin in my heart,    the Lord would not have listened.But God did listen!    He paid attention to my prayer.Praise God, who did not ignore my prayer    or withdraw his unfailing love from me.Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)

Welcome to our journey through the Psalms.  Today's Meditation is a Lectio Divina (scripture meditation, see the very first podcast for an explanation of Lectio Divina) of Psalm 51.  This passage is David's writing after one of his greatest mistakes.  He was responsible for breaking up a family, murdering a man, and ruining his dignity.  In this passage he is crying out to God to create a new heart in him, to restore all that was good before his mistake.  To revive the life inside of him.  Amidst our huge mistakes or small errors we can be plagued with guilt much like David, and we need to experience God's unfailing love.  My hope is you can experience that through this passage.Psalm 51For the choir director: A psalm of David, regarding the time Nathan the prophet came to him after David had committed adultery with Bathsheba.Have mercy on me, O God,    because of your unfailing love.Because of your great compassion,    blot out the stain of my sins.Wash me clean from my guilt.    Purify me from my sin.For I recognize my rebellion;    it haunts me day and nightAgainst you, and you alone, have I sinned;    I have done what is evil in your sight.You will be proved right in what you say,    and your judgment against me is just.For I was born a sinner—    yes, from the moment my mother conceived me.But you desire honesty from the womb,    teaching me wisdom even there.Purify me from my sins, and I will be clean;    wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.Oh, give me back my joy again;    you have broken me—    now let me rejoice.Don't keep looking at my sins.    Remove the stain of my guilt.Create in me a clean heart, O God.    Renew a loyal spirit within me.Do not banish me from your presence,    and don't take your Holy Spirit from me.Restore to me the joy of your salvation,    and make me willing to obey you.Then I will teach your ways to rebels,    and they will return to you.Forgive me for shedding blood, O God who saves;    then I will joyfully sing of your forgiveness.Unseal my lips, O Lord,    that my mouth may praise you.Support the show

Welcome to our journey through the Psalms.  Today's Meditation is a Lectio Divina (scripture meditation, see the very first podcast for an explanation of Lectio Divina) of Psalm 146.  This passage is a perspective changer.  Sometimes we get the wrong perspectives of life, God, or ourselves, and God is calling us to gently shift them, to align them to his view, which is so much better.Psalm 146Praise the Lord!Let all that I am praise the Lord.I will praise the Lord as long as I live.    I will sing praises to my God with my dying breath.Don't put your confidence in powerful people;    there is no help for you there.When they breathe their last, they return to the earth,    and all their plans die with them.But joyful are those who have the God of Israel[a] as their helper,    whose hope is in the Lord their God.He made heaven and earth,    the sea, and everything in them.    He keeps every promise forever.He gives justice to the oppressed    and food to the hungry.The Lord frees the prisoners.The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.The Lord lifts up those who are weighed down.    The Lord loves the godly.The Lord protects the foreigners among us.    He cares for the orphans and widows,    but he frustrates the plans of the wicked.The Lord will reign forever.    He will be your God, O Jerusalem, throughout the generations.Praise the Lord!Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)

Hello There!Welcome to the Being podcast!  The Being podcast is a spiritual meditation podcast to give you a moment in the week to breathe, rest, and just... be.  There's a quote that says "you're a human being, not a human doing", and that emphasizes my hope for you with this podcast!Meditation has been helpful for me mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and a form of meditation called "Lectio Divina" was incredibly moving for me at different moments of my life.  But when I went to search for it... I didn't find much!  Just some very old or poorly recorded sermons or a random video explaining what it was... So like many things, I thought, well if it's not out there, maybe I should create it!This podcast is just a welcome to it, and a brief cover of what Lectio Divina is!  Lectio Divina is an ancient monastic practice in the Christian faith of allowing Scripture to come alive through the reading and meditating of it.  The four parts are Lectio ("read"); Meditatio ("meditate"); Oratio ("pray"); Contemplatio ("contemplate").  In each Lectio Divina I'll read a passage out loud for you to listen to.  The first time through you'll simply listen to it and let it be read over you, without attempting to decipher, translate, or understand it.  Almost try to FEEL the passage as it's read aloud.  Then the next time reading through, you'll simply look for a word or phrase that sticks out to you, and acknowledge it.  After finishing the reading you'll call to mind that word or phrase.  The 3rd time reading through the scripture you will then ask the question "What does God want to speak to me through this word or phrase?".  Lastly, you'll ask the question "What does this mean for me today?" or "What can I do with this thing God is speaking to me in my day?".I hope you enjoy it, and I hope it's fruitful for you!Remember, you're a human being,not a human doing.- Matt V.Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/beingpodcast)
