We can move forward from any mistakes. We can be freed from all regrets. And we can gain from both wisdom and courage. None of us are slaves to our past.The fact is, notions of regret and mistake live only in the mind. We did not choose our circumstances or our brains. These self-imposed prisons are merely illusions we carry with us.So many of us spend so much of our lives feeling regret for mistakes we've made in the past. It's part of life, to live and to learn.

There Is No Obligation to Obey: Rethinking Spiritual Freedom with Michael Lindfield & Joseph Carenza

This week on Musings from the Mount, we tackle terms that might initially make you uncomfortable - obedience and free will. Far from a call to blind submission, we explore these concepts as invitations to dance with life's greater rhythms and align with our deeper nature. Drawing from Section 125 of "Ponder on This," we examine the relationship between personal sovereignty and alignment with something greater. As the text itself begins with "There is no obligation to obey," we discover how the traditional teacher-student dynamic has evolved from one of directed instruction to one of guided opportunity and personal discovery. The conversation explores the surprising truth that the limitation of choice can sometimes expand our creative potential - like musicians in an orchestra agreeing to play in the same key or an artist working within constraints to discover new possibilities. We discuss how this applies to our spiritual practice and everyday choices. Whether you're navigating personal freedom, questioning authority, or seeking to understand your role in life's greater symphony, this episode offers fresh perspectives on what it means to consciously choose alignment rather than submit to external demands. Join us as we explore how freedom and obedience can exist not as opposites, but as complementary aspects of an authentic spiritual path. Meditation Mount and HeartLight Productions are pleased to present Musings from the Mount – a weekly podcast with host Joseph Carenza and guests in conversation exploring a range of topics drawn from the Ageless Wisdom teachings.

Among the ‘himalayas of the north', Mark is unravelling the core of modern spiritual systems and the search for enlightenment.  Summarising the teachings of Krishnamacharya, Desikachar, and the radical honesty of U.G. Krishnamurti, this episode presents Yoga as an intimate participation in what is real—life itself. Subjects… J Krishnamurti, UG Krishnamurti, BKS Iyengar, and the history of the Saanen Valley Why the ideal of a “perfect person” has deeply disempowered humanity How Yoga has been distorted by systems of effort, hierarchy, and branding U.G. Krishnamurti's radical realization and the myth of spiritual seeking The social hoax of striving, self-improvement, and enlightenment fantasies How true Yoga arises spontaneously from intimacy with breath, body, and life The feminine principle and restoring our natural intelligence Key Phrases: “The Guru has no followers. The Guru has friends to help.” “Stop looking. Start living. Your Yoga is the living of it.” “No more gymnastics. No more spiritual gymnastics.

Más bien, puede indicar una enfermedad mental, una adaptación a algo perjudicial. La frase "no es una medida de salud estar bien adaptado a una sociedad profundamente enferma" refleja la idea de que la adaptación a lo erróneo o perjudicial no es un signo de salud, sino más bien una adaptación a un estado de enfermedad. Krishnamurti, a través de esta frase, nos invita a reflexionar sobre la naturaleza de la salud y la enfermedad, tanto individual como social. Una sociedad "enferma" puede ser definida por la presencia de valores, normas o estructuras que causan daño a sus miembros, como la violencia, la injusticia o el consumismo obviamente excesivo. Adaptarse a esta sociedad, en lugar de buscar una transformación, podría significar aceptar y perpetuar estas "enfermedades sociales".

And some of us are able to manage our addiction. But we all struggle, we exhaust ourselves putting forth tremendous effort to refrain, and in the end we either cave in or temporarily fight off. But we all have this one addiction, and it is the cause of all our other addictions.In this podcast, I share what this universal addiction is. I talk about how we get it, how to notice it, and how to free ourselves from it. This addiction is the root cause to all of our other addictions. It's why we often swap one addiction for another.

Who's your best friend? Did you say yourself? You should, because there's no one more important to you than you. You may think there is, but you can only experience other people through your own state of consciousness. So your state of consciousness is the most important determining factor for your relationships and your happiness in life.So how do you treat yourself? How do you talk to yourself? Are you loving and kind, or critical and harsh? Do you spend quality time with yourself uninterrupted and undistracted, or do you avoid yourself? Do you dread spending extended alone time with just yourself, or do you love it? The answer to this question is the real measure of your happiness. In this podcast, I talk about the nature of our relationship with ourselves. I share 3 simple but powerful steps for improving that relationship. I talk about a practical tool that a shaman in Peru taught me for giving ourselves some much needed self-love. And I share how we can deepen our relationship with ourself in a way that improves our relationships with everyone around us.Remember, if the source of happiness was on top of the world's tallest mountain or at the bottom of the deepest ocean, it would have been discovered long ago and everyone would make a pilgrimage to this place. But instead, the universe put that source of happiness in the last place anyone would think to look — within.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

In this week's episode of Musings From The Mount, we explore what it really means to walk "the path of service" - a concept we've touched on throughout our podcast but now examine more deeply. Our conversation unpacks how this path differs from traditional religious callings, combining intellectual understanding with practical application. The episode draws from both Agni Yoga teachings and the lineage connected to Meditation Mount to outline essential qualities for those committed to service. We discuss divine indifference, detachment, perseverance, and non-irritation - each functioning as practical guideposts rather than rigid rules. These aren't abstract concepts but necessary capacities for anyone seeking to consciously participate in humanity's evolution. Our discussion takes a personal turn when we examine the journey from being a "seeker" to becoming actively engaged in service. A fundamental shift happens when we realize the natural urge of the soul isn't to acquire knowledge but to give. The conversation includes reflections on how perseverance plays a crucial role during challenging periods in anyone's journey of growth and recovery. What emerges is a practical framework for daily living that moves beyond abstract spirituality. Whether you're just beginning to feel that gentle "knocking" of something more meaningful in your life, or you're already dedicated to serving others, this conversation offers perspective on how to develop greater capacity for service while maintaining balance and patience - defined in the episode as "the ability to hold an intent over time without irritation and without attachment to outcome." Meditation Mount and HeartLight Productions are pleased to present Musings from the Mount – a weekly podcast with host Joseph Carenza and guests in conversation exploring a range of topics drawn from the Ageless Wisdom teachings.

We are rewarded if we can shove down our pain, ignore our stress, and drown our sorrows. But when all of those problems bubble under the surface, eventually they explode.Denial is one of the major, if not the number one cause, of chronic pain, addiction, mental crises, anger outbursts, and many of the physical disorders and diseases in our world.The fact is, we need to feel to heal.

What if your entire life is being shaped by wounds you don't even know you have?Most of us carry emotional scars buried so deep, we're not even aware they exist. And because we don't see them, we don't know we need healing—let alone how to begin.Trauma isn't always dramatic. Sometimes, it's subtle. It's the weight of things unspoken, inherited pain passed down from generations, childhood moments that left marks, or a society that never taught us how to feel safe.The real issue? Our world doesn't teach us how to heal. It teaches us to distract, to numb, to escape.

In our latest "Ponder On This" episode, Michael Lindfield and Joseph Carenza explore the practice of relinquishing - a concept that goes far beyond simply giving things up. We discuss how relinquishing creates space for our true nature to emerge, much like a snake shedding its old skin to reveal the new one already formed beneath. Michael shares a powerful insight: "The relinquishing of the image of the self is the prelude to stepping into the livingness of the self." This process isn't about denial or punishment, but rather about consciously letting go to create what Michael calls "a space of grace" where our inner truth can flourish. We examine how this applies to our relationships with loved ones, our work in service, and even our cherished spiritual beliefs. The conversation takes an honest look at why mental attachments are often the hardest to release. As Michael notes, "When the A becomes the THE, you've got problems" - highlighting how easily we can mistake a partial truth for the complete picture. We discuss how this mental warfare plays out in our world today and why opening the heart is essential for navigating these challenges. This episode offers practical wisdom for anyone feeling called to create more space in their lives for what truly matters. Whether you're facing personal transitions or simply seeking a deeper connection with your authentic self, there's something here to support your journey.

Having the approval and praise of others is a natural human desire. We evolved to depend on each other for our survival, and so maintaining strong social bonds is in our DNA. But too often, people may voice their disapproval who do not have our best interests at heart. Other times, people may be too overcome with fear and worry to approve of people's lifestyles and choices that are different from theirs.So how can we navigate these uncertain waters? How can we know when to take advice and when to follow our hearts? And how can we do what we feel to be right without letting other people's judgments, criticisms and unhelpful opinions bring us down?I share my answer to these and other questions in this podcast. I also give my simple 3-step process for how to make big dreams a reality without being affected by the negative opinions of others. Only we can know what's best for ourselves. Other people can only know what's best for them. Here's how we can block out the noise, stay focused on the goal, and achieve great things.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.
