Ein zentrales Leitmotiv ihres Weges ist Krishnamurtis Satz: «Truth is a pathless land.»Im Gespräch spricht Ulla offen und persönlich über ihren spirituellen Werdegang, über die lange Trennung von Therapie und Spiritualität in ihrem Berufsleben und über die Frage, wie Meditation, Selbsterkenntnis und psychische Stabilität zusammenhängen. Sie erzählt von prägenden Jahren in Indien, vom Verlust ihres Mannes, von der Bedeutung von Struktur und Praxis im Alltag – und davon, warum Spiritualität ohne psychologische Arbeit aus ihrer Sicht riskant sein kann.Ein differenziertes, ehrliches Gespräch über Meditation jenseits von Wellness, über Leid, Verantwortung und Reife – und über die Notwendigkeit, spirituelle Praxis und psychotherapeutische Arbeit zusammenzudenken.Wir sprechen über:

Jiddu Krishnamurti var en indisk filosof og spirituell lærer som utfordret konvensjonelle tankemønstre og sosiale normer. Hans bok Hva gjør du med livet ditt er en inngående utforskning av menneskets forhold til frihet, selvinnsikt og betydningen av å leve autentisk. Krishnamurti tar opp spørsmål som er dypt relevante både i eksistensielle filosofier og i moderne psykologi, særlig innenfor felter som selvrealisering og mindfulness. Han viser oss hvordan vi alltid ser oss selv og livet filtrert via erfaringer, normer, regler, kultur og tusenvis av andre påvirkninger. Vi ser ikke livet slik det er, men via et tykt filter som forkrøpler vår utsikt og innsikt. For å leve mer autentisk, og ikke havne i alle livsfellene som fører til stress, angst og psykisk uhelse, må vi ty til en form for radikal selvransakelse, og det blir tema i dagens episode av SinnSyn.

Age-gap relationships defy linear time. They produce relational paradoxes that neither culture nor psychology fully resolves. In conventional discourse, we treat age as a number, a simple demographic variable. Yet when examined through the lenses of consciousness studies (Hawkins), holographic reality (Bentov), dialogical exploration (Bohm), trauma theory (Rothschild & Carnes), and nonduality (Krishnamurti), age mutates into something far deeper: a psychological currency.

As it pertains to maintaining healthy relationships/marriages, is having a “Panglossian”mindset, merely toxic positivity, dressed up with fancy vocabulary? What are the key differences between a Panglossian mindset and Krishnamurti's concept of choiceless awareness, or the mindfulness concept of non-attachment?

Our bodies respond to the thoughts in our head. We make choices because of our thoughts. And if we have a scary thought, we feel fear. If our thoughts are angry in nature, we feel anger. If we have worrying thoughts, we feel stressed and anxious. If they are positive, we feel good and happy.We think reality effects our thoughts, but it is our thoughts that create our reality. Most of us simply have an untrained mind. Our mind is our master. The ego runs the show.In this podcast, I talk about how our higher self can take back the reins of our mind. I discuss how our egos took control in the first place and the sneaky tricks it uses to hold on to power. And I share some simple solutions for taming the mind so that it becomes our loyal, helpful companion instead of our moody, needy, and impulsive boss.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

Sex as the Theater of Trauma, the Refuge of the Fragmented, and the Doorway to the Self We Fear to Meet. Krishnamurti said the human mind is endlessly escaping itself through entertainment, through belief, through identity, through addiction and sex is the most socially acceptable escape of all. Not because sex is wrong.
The modern cult of “holding space” has become a sanctuary for avoidance. We glorify tolerance while privately hemorrhaging self-respect. The phrase once meant presence; now it often means paralysis. Hold Dis L detonates the myth that unconditional compassion justifies self-erasure. Krishnamurti warned that conformity masquerades as kindness; Hawkins proved that guilt vibrates lower than anger. Together they whisper: love without discernment isn't love—it's spiritual codependency with better vocabulary.

We all have trouble thinking before we speak and act. We want to be present and flow, but we also want to be careful and thoughtful of what we do. So how do we think before we act and still be present? How do we stop impulsive behavior, giving into addiction and addictive urges, and reacting from anger or losing our temper?Why do we sometimes say something we don't mean, act impulsively, or hurt others unintentionally? And most importantly, how can we become aligned in our words, thoughts and actions so that we no longer have to watch we say and do?In this podcast, I share a simple but powerful 2-step process for maintaining our presence, our wisdom, and our peace and clarity so that we can always act in the most skilled and beneficial way that leads to longterm peace and wellbeing for ourself and our loved ones.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

What happens when the very tools we use to share wisdom become barriers to understanding it? This conversation tackles a profound paradox: how language, the vehicle for transmitting knowledge, can actually limit our access to deeper truths. Starting with Krishnamurti's famous moment of walking on stage, saying "turn within," and walking off—leaving audiences both frustrated and enlightened—the discussion explores why sometimes the most profound teachings come not from books, but from direct experience of life itself. The episode examines a fascinating teaching from the Tibetan master DK about how "all books are prison houses of ideas" and how words, even when trying to convey truth, inevitably limit and contain what they're attempting to express. This isn't about dismissing study or intellectual development, but about understanding their proper place as stepping stones rather than destinations. The conversation explores the difference between living "on" the Earth versus living "as" the Earth—a shift from seeking knowledge as treasure to hoard, to becoming a conduit for wisdom in service of something greater. Perhaps most practically, the discussion examines different ways of knowing beyond the analytical mind: intuition as "straight knowledge," telepathic communication, and what ancient traditions called being "seen, touched, and realized" rather than simply read. Personal stories emerge of profound "aha moments"—from a child's recognition of nested realities while watching his mother bake, to a Danish office clerk's twenty-minute cosmic awakening that transformed his entire understanding of existence. The conversation ultimately points toward a future where telepathic communication and intuitive knowing might supersede written and spoken language entirely. It's an invitation to consider your own relationship with learning: Are you using knowledge as a bridge to deeper understanding, or has the accumulation of information become an end in itself? The episode suggests that the most profound truths aren't discovered through more reading, but through opening the heart as a receptive field and saying "yes" to direct communion with life itself.

What if the thing you've been following your whole life isn't your guide - it's a shadow? In this episode I'm calling you to wake up, brother. We dig into the Matrix metaphor not as science fiction drama but as a clear map of how collective narratives, institutions, and systems (government, money, religion, AI) become second-hand authorities that keep you walking in circles with your head down. This episode is both a wake-up call and a practical guide: learn how to recognize those shadows, use them when useful, and - most importantly - stop letting them be your authority.I unpack why this matters by drawing from human design (my defined head center and the channels that make me a transmitter of meaning), spiritual teachers like Krishnamurti, and timeless wisdom (Rumi: “you are the entire ocean in a drop”). I explain the difference between information and experience - the red pill of remembering who you are - and why true change requires embodied knowing, not just more facts. We trace how the “matrix” is a creation of a creation: useful, derivative, and dependent on our energy. That dependence is why the matrix seeks to keep you distracted and compliant. But it is also why it can be repurposed: once you pick your head up you can use these tools (sundials, systems, institutions) intentionally - rather than be used by them.We move through Spiral Dynamics and the shift from the first tier (head-down, external authority, sustenance and survival memes) into the second tier (inner authority, being, and self-realization). I show how community care and unity talk can still be head-down if they come from abdication rather than empowerment - and how the real aim is to teach people to remember themselves so institutions eventually serve the individual instead of the other way around.Expect practical analogies (shadow as sundial and compass), stories from coaching clients who reclaimed authority during times of pressure, and a firm yet compassionate call to action: pick your head up. This episode isn't about abandoning creating, building, or governing - it's about changing the relationship so that our creations serve our becoming. If you're tired of repeating the same cycles, feeling externally led, or selling your power for the safety of the shadow, this episode will help you see the path back to yourself.Close with a directive: start with experience. Do the inner work, create the embodied memory of who you are, then show up differently in your relationships, work, and world. Elevate your alpha. Until next week - keep your head up, brother.

One of the hardest times in anyone's life is when we lose someone who is still alive. Perhaps they cut us off, perhaps we cut them off, or perhaps it was mutual. But either way, the pain, regret, blame, and open wound of hope make this type of loss particularly difficult.There are countless books written about grief. When someone we love passes, friends and family offer their support. But when we lose the living, we often suffer alone. Taking time to grieve seems strange and futile. So what can we do when a hole is left in our heart by someone who still walks this earth?In this podcast, I share my own personal stories of family estrangement and family separation, abandonment and betrayal. I talk about what helped me get out of the darkest place of my life. I discuss the lessons I learned, what I wish someone had told me, and the healing that is possible.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

This episode of Let's Talk Loyalty & Loyalty TV is in Spanish and this episode was recorded live. Bienvenidos al panel de Customer Loyalty. Hoy queremos elevar la conversación: la lealtad no es puntos, cupones ni cashback; es una ciencia y un arte con metodología que genera conocimiento del cliente y rentabilidad. Debatiremos la tesis: la lealtad de las marcas a sus clientes no es un tema de marketing; es un factor fundamental de generación de EBITDA. Comúnmente las empresas confunden los programas de lealtad como generadores de costos y gastos y pocas veces tienen la visión de que pueden ser una fuente de ingresos incrementales para el negocio. Para llegar a este conocimiento, es necesario desmitificar varios preceptos incorrectos que existen en esta materia. Se requiere tener una estrategia clara para que el diseño del programa cumpla con la encomienda de ser un centro de ingresos y no de costo.Nos acompañan tres expertos que han diseñado, implementado y operado programas de lealtad reales: Fernando Jiménez, Carlos SanRomán y Raziel Rocha. Vamos a explorar variables financieras, gestión eficiente del pasivo, gamificación, efecto “loyalty currency”, redención y cómo llevar un programa al siguiente nivel, entre otros temas.Hosted by Alex Saul.Show Notes:1) Fernando Jimenez2) Carlos SanRomán3) Raziel Rocha4) The Business of Expertise – David C Baker5) Carlos SanRomán: Loyalty Programs Currency Effect – Evert De Boer / Xiao Yao Chin6) Freedom from the Known– J. Krishnamurti

Have you ever noticed the difference between doing something because it's necessary versus doing it because you want to be seen or because of insecurities? In this episode, I unpack the distinction between practical motive and psychological motive, and how this subtle shift can be the root of stress, disappointment, or peace in our lives. I share stories from a weekend at a Krishnamurti ashram, conversations over morning chai with my in-laws, and the insights that came from those moments. Check it out! Let's unpack together! Sometimes all you need is a nudge and someone to ask the questions so you can find the answers for you. Send me a DM or check out my website: www.unpackingmyself.com

If the unexamined life is not worth living, the unexamined mind is not worth having.Who are we? At the deepest sense of ourselves? What is this consciousness peering out at the world? And is it possible to turn our awareness back on itself?If we fail to look at ourselves, to understand who we truly are, to understand our unconscious thought patterns and habits, we are doomed to repeat our past, to live an unintentional life, and to keep making the same mistakes.But if we start to look within, we start to break those patterns. Our thoughts become conscious. Our actions becomes intentional. And soon, our life starts to resemble the one we've always dreamed. It all starts by looking within. In this podcast, I share how to do exactly that.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

Spirituality and success are not mutually exclusive endeavors. You don't have to give up all your possessions and move to a cave in India to meditate in solitude in order to find happiness. Steve Jobs showed us that you can be spiritual and successful. He showed us how spirituality can actually lead to greater success. And he shared how spirituality actually led to him being able to enjoy instead of losing himself in the insatiable desire for more.In this podcast, I share the 3 most important lessons Steve Jobs taught us about spiritual success. I discuss how we can all implement the lessons he learned for manifesting our dreams. And I talk about how to use spirituality for greater clarity, to handle stress better, and for tapping into our highest wisdom and creativity.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

Krishnamurti:For nearly six decades until his passing in 1986 at the age of ninety, Jiddu Krishnamurti traversed the globe, delivering spontaneous and captivating discourses to large audiences. Krishnamurti assumed the role of an investigator rather than an authority figure, encouraging individuals to question assumptions and explore the depths of their consciousness. His extensive body of work, estimated at over 100 million words, spans more than six decades of relentless inquiry and dialogue. His teachings, compiled in numerous books and translated into multiple languages, continue to inspire seekers worldwide, inviting them to embark on a profound journey of self-discovery and understanding. J. Krishnamurti's legacy endures as a guiding light, offering timeless wisdom for those who dare to challenge conventional thinking and explore the complexities of existence.Listen to Krishnamurti's lectures on the Be Here Now Network's Freedom From The Known podcast.About David Silver:David Silver is the former co-host of the Mindrolling podcast. He is a filmmaker and director, most recently coming out with Brilliant Disguise. Brilliant Disguise tells the unique story of a group of inspired Western spiritual seekers from the 60s, who in meeting the great American teacher, Ram Dass, followed him to India to meet his Guru, Neem Karoli Baba, familiarly known as Maharaj-ji. Two days before he left his body, Maharaj-ji instructed K.C. Tewari to take care of the Westerners, which he did resolutely until the day he died in 1997. Silver's #1 charting MGM/UA/Warners film, “The Compleat Beatles” is the critically acclaimed biopic movie about history's most famous band. The term ‘rockumentary' was first applied to this two-hour movie. Rolling Stone recently described the film as a “masterwork.” Silver's Warner Brothers' feature film, “No Nukes” also started the whole trend of music/activism feature documentaries. "He was an advocate, always, of looking at yourself. He felt that the deeper truths about the meaning of living do not come from anyone else, even if the greatest guru is in front of you, it still comes from what you yourself are truly embedded in properly. In other words, that's what you believe when you're alone, silent, not having to impress, not having to compare."– David SilverSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
