The gate of the God is the entrance to the spiritual realm that resides inside of the individual, but it may also be expressed as a physical location in the form of a shrine. One of the most interesting studies in religion can be undertaken by studying something that is not a religion, and that is the indigenous practice of Shinto in Japan.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Completely new universes and deeper awarenesses can arise when we gather in sacred intimate conversations. That's why this podcast is in its 13th season! I knew how grateful I am for Marina's videography and photography at my last 4-5 retreats. I'm aware of how inspired I am at the personal, parental, spiritual and professional evolution I've witnessed coaching her and the gift of her vulnerability to our coaching community. I'm grateful for the contribution of her mastery in the realm of water rituals for my clients at retreats. However it wasn't until we sat down for this podcast that we really felt the massive impact of all these years working together, the impact on our friendship, sisterhood, professional relationship, personal and collective evolution. It's so good to reflect! Without reflection, the profound impact of these experiences stay concealed, like a hidden ripe fruit that we never got to sink our teeth into! Syncing our teeth into our glorious journey together, we also discussed... -How the first time I hired her, a client had made unconscious comment that pierced Marina's heart and I made sure to address it, integrate it and include her in the group's transformation- she felt safe and seen. -How exquisite it was to have her lead a couples water ritual in Costa Rica utilizing underwater photography and community to further bond and celebrate sacred partnership (setting the stage for a secret engagement proposal!) -How a client also in the film industry, publicly honored all the work Marina had done, the work of 7 to 10 people, and how extraordinary she is flowing in and out of her masculine and feminine energies -How our trust has grown over the years such that she stepped into support a client during a process where I was helping someone else. We felt each other having each other's back in combined service to my community- what a gift. -How we are no different than any other relationship, having a rupture that we repaired that led to the deepest bonding we ever shared as if we were two goddesses in a temple, downloading wisdom from the cosmos sitting beside the infinity pool on the beach in Isla Mujeres. -How my mentorship as an entrepreneur, a woman several decades older than her, yet also a woman of great vulnerability, transparency and honesty, has been a safe place for her to continue to grow over time, ending an old pattern of leaving if things got uncomfortable. -How her commitment to stay year after year coaching in my community has supported her sitting in the fire in her current romantic relationship while deepening her own relationship with herself in the face of anything, so inspiring! ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!

In this episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast Ryan reflects on a conversation with yoga retreat attendees struggling to understand or experience what is "sacred." This sparks a broader exploration of how modern life—especially overthinking, distractions, and unresolved inner conflicts—prevents many from recognizing sacredness in daily life. Key Points: Invitation to Reflect: Listeners are asked to consider what "sacred" means to them personally—how it feels, and what blocks them from experiencing it. Modern Distractions & Impurities: Our technology-saturated, overly scheduled lives (including spiritual "doom scrolling") clutter the mind, making sacred experiences harder to access. Overthinking as a Barrier: Many overthink spiritual matters to the point of paralysis. Seeking intellectual proof or control keeps us from directly experiencing the sacred, which transcends logic. Importance of Simplicity & Stillness: Like in meditation, we must learn to let go of distractions to become receptive. Sacredness arises not through analysis, but through presence and quiet attention. Trust in Practice Over Proof: Spiritual traditions exist because they offer tested pathways to sacred experience. Rather than demanding proof (e.g., levitating yogis), one must engage the process sincerely and consistently. Skepticism vs. Surrender: While questioning is natural, endlessly asking “why” is a trap. Faith, curiosity, and practice are needed to move past doubt into lived experience. Sacredness in Relationship & Practice: True presence—whether with a child, an instrument, or in meditation—creates sacred moments. It's not about doing more, but about being more present. Mystics Weren't Lazy: Saints and mystics across traditions achieved spiritual insight through rigorous and consistent practice, not casual dabbling. Realization is Beyond the Mind: True spiritual awakening can't be fully described or proven intellectually. It must be experienced directly. Curiosity Over Control: Rather than trying to control or understand everything, approach the spiritual path with wonder, awe, and dedication. Final Message: To experience the sacred, stop overthinking. Trust a well-worn path, stay curious, be present, and practice sincerely over time. Sacredness is found not through intellectual mastery, but through lived, open-hearted experience. -
The Abundance Journey: Accelerating Revenue With An Abundance Mindset
What if the wealth you're chasing isn't something to earn… but something to remember? In this powerful episode, we move into Phase Two of The Spiral of Divine Abundance: Reclaiming.If Episode 165 cracked open your heart with Remembrance—the soul-deep moment when you remember who you truly are beyond titles, roles, and expectations—this next phase will shake you in the best possible way.Reclaiming is not about becoming someone new.

What happens when three brilliant minds clash over the meaning of Christianity's most sacred meal? In this episode, Dr. Strange and host Jared Luttjeboer examine one of the Reformation's most heated theological debates: the Lord's Supper. From Rome's doctrine of transubstantiation to Luther's mysterious "in, with, and under," from Zwingli's memorial view to Calvin's real spiritual presence—discover how these competing interpretations shaped Protestant thought on the sacrament. As you listen, you'll hear Dr. Strange comment on the surprising agreements hidden beneath fierce disagreements, learn why Luther accused Zwingli of rationalism while Zwingli fired back with charges of mysticism, and explore Calvin's ingenious solution that sought to honor both Christ's ascension and His real presence. We'll be taking the month of July off, but join us again in August as we return with more of Dr. Strange and church history!
The aftermath of the infamously viral podcast about my post-conventional relationship with my beloved wife Vylana and Alana Beale has been one of the hardest months of my life. It's forced me to ask deep, penetrating questions about who I am, at the core of my being. The process has been profoundly alchemical, a kind of calcination where all the bullsh*t parts are burnt away, and the real truth remains. What you will see on this podcast with my former fiancé and current best friend Caitlyn Howe is an honest exploration of all the vulnerabilities, cracks, faults, mistakes, of a real, living, breathing human being. I am so thankful for this process. Not just for the outpouring of love and support, but for the sharp critiques that help excavate what is really under the surface if you have the courage to look. I am not sorry for being who I am. But I am deeply sorry for everyone who has been hurt by people who didn't have the courage or awareness to know their truth. I have been on both sides, as a person that has hurt people and as a person who has been hurt by people. My prayer is that this story can in some way inspire that same alchemical process of self inquiry and clarification so there can be less pain and more beauty, in a world that desperately needs to balance the scales.Thank you for following this story, thank you for your precious time and attention. Whether it has been in anger or love, it has all been medicine. Thank you.

Today we're diving into something that has truly changed the way I operate in both business and life: boundaries. But not just any boundaries — sacred ones that help you stay aligned with your purpose and energy. Trust me, learning to honor this practice has been life-giving, and I want to share what's worked for me. Setting boundaries isn't about pushing others away, it's about respecting your values by evaluating opportunities, learning to say ‘no' and making sure your calendar aligns with your energy. Action Plan: - Misalignment has a cost: Staying in the wrong situations drains your energy and purpose. - Sacred boundaries protect what matters: They're about honoring your truth, not pushing people away. - Watch for warning signs: Dread, resentment, and overcommitment signal a need for - boundaries. - Boundaries unlock magic: Saying no creates space for aligned, energizing opportunities. - Use simple boundary tools: Pause before saying ‘yes', check in with your body, and lean on your values. - Choosing yourself is powerful: Boundaries aren't selfish—they're essential for impact.

There's nothing like the NBA and NHL Finals… unless you count professional pillow fighting. In this episode, Father Dave and Deacon Bob celebrate the end of the sports season with a rundown of the Stanley Cup, the NBA Finals, and the rise of summer's strangest athletic events, including the Pillow Fighting Championship (yes, it's real). But the heart of the episode is hope—the kind that doesn't come from scores or summer plans, but from Christ. They reflect on the Eucharist, the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts, and the graces poured out at recent conferences at Franciscan and Notre Dame. From youth ministry to marriage milestones, they explore what it means to trust God with both our spiritual and everyday needs. Naturally, they go off on tangents, from hotel bathrobes and awkward airline announcements to anniversary shoutouts and the idea of launching a Franciscan pillow-fighting team (tentative name: the Franciscan Feathers). Highlighted Sections (00:00) Bathrobes, Notre Dame, and the $175 Upcharge Deacon Bob checks in from the Morris Inn at the University of Notre Dame, complimentary robe included. He's there for Notre Dame Vision, a youth program inviting high schoolers into deeper faith. (03:30) Sports Wrap and the Rise of Pillow Fighting From there, they pivot to sports: the Florida Panthers clinch the Stanley Cup, Oklahoma City Thunder top the Pacers in Game 7, and Canada's Stanley Cup drought continues. And just when you think sports can't get weirder—enter the Pillow Fighting Championship, now with corporate sponsorships and, apparently, rules. (10:31) Augustine and Airport Public Shaming Fr. Dave highlights a recent In Focus episode featuring Dr. Shane Owens, where they unpack the enduring relevance of St. Augustine's Confessions in a world increasingly shaped by AI and secular culture. The conversation quickly pivots, though, as Deacon Bob shares a less lofty moment: a painfully awkward moment from his flight to South Bend, where a bathroom break turned into a public shaming over the intercom. (19:29) Hope as Grace: Conferences and Franciscan Honeymoon Father Dave shares stories from the Power and Purpose Conference, themed around hope. He reflects on hope as a grace—not just good vibes or optimism—and mentions a couple who spent their 50th wedding anniversary and a couple on their honeymoon at the same event. (23:01) Corpus Christi and the God Who Satisfies Jesus didn't just meet spiritual needs. He fed the crowds too. Father Dave and Deacon Bob explore how our trust in God is often strong in the abstract, but wavers in daily stresses. They tie it back to Corpus Christi, Romans 5, and the gift of the Holy Spirit. (28:34) Sacred Hearts, Summer Kickoffs, and Marriage Milestones Deacon Bob celebrates 28 years of marriage on the same day as the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. He also gives a shoutout to the kickoff of Franciscan's high school youth conferences and the ongoing Priests, Deacons, and Seminarians Retreat. (31:10) Praying for Peace in a Complicated World The hosts close with a prayer for peace amid global tensions, especially in the Middle East and Ukraine. They close with a reflection on Pope Leo's Angelus invitation to prayer and remind listeners that lasting peace only comes from the Heart of Christ. Resources & Mentions · Power and Purpose Conference – A weekend of renewal, prayer, and worship through Steubenville Conferences. · Notre Dame Vision – A summer youth program helping teens hear God's call. · Romans 15:13 and Romans 5:5 – Scriptures that anchor this episode's theme of hope · Pope Leo XIV: Son of St. Augustine– Watch the latest In Focus episode with guest Dr. Shane Owens on Faith & Reason. · Pillow Fighting Championship– Yes, it's real. Yes, it has rules. Yes, you're going to Google it.
In Defending Rumba in Havana: The Sacred and the Black Corporeal Undercommons (Duke University Press, 2025), anthropologist and dancer Maya J. Berry examines rumba as a way of knowing the embodied and spiritual dimensions of Black political imagination in post-Fidel Cuba. Historically a Black working-class popular dance, rumba, Berry contends, is a method of Black Cuban struggle that provides the community, accountability, sustenance, and dignity that neither the state nor the expanding private market can. Berry's feminist theorization builds on the notion of the undercommons to show how rumba creates a space in which its practitioners enact deeply felt and dedicatedly defended choreographies of reciprocity, refusal, sovereignty, devotion, and pleasure, both on stage and in their daily lives. Berry demonstrates that this Black corporeal undercommons emphasizes mutual aid and refuses neoliberal development logics, favoring instead a collective self-determination rooted in African diasporic spiritual practices through which material compensation and gendered power dynamics are negotiated. By centering rumba to analyze how poor Black Cubans navigate gendered and racialized life, Berry helps readers better understand the constraints and yearnings that move diasporic Black struggles to seek refuge beyond the bounds of the nation-state. Maya J. Berry is Assistant Professor of African, African American, and Diaspora Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Reighan Gillam is Associate Professor in the Department of Latin American, Latino, and Caribbean Studies at Dartmouth College. Her research examines the ways in which Afro-Brazilian media producers foment anti-racist visual politics through their image creation.

There's a cliché that "bad things happen for a reason," and another, "God makes everything work out for good." Of the two, the first is kind of false unless the reason is, "sometimes things suck and people are evil." The second is more true, but also needs the caveat that the bad things aren't what God designs or wants — as far as I know, and I hold that to be very little on average. Ten years after the martyrdom of the Emanuel 9, I had the opportunity to be a guest preacher at Sanctuary South Shore in Plymouth, MA, and participate in the sermon series ONE, which this week was about how we find unity in tragedy and attempted division, and come to a deeper understanding of God, ourselves, and each other by giving up on our differences in ways that divide us, and digging into our differences in ways that bring us closer in our common humanity. Sanctuary's a young congregation, around fifteen years old, and the newest thriving mission plant in the New England Synod. What they do well is a lot, but in terms of worship, they do a great job at reflecting the depth of liturgical worship-done-well in a supremely casual way. It was wonderful to be there!

What if intimacy itself—softness, surrender, safety—was once criminalized for Black bodies, and thus encoded as a threat within the nervous system? If love during slavery was punishable by separation, humiliation, or death, then how do we today, in the echo of those lashings, trust in vulnerability without flinching?

Ep 192 is part energy update, part personal update, part encouragement. We're talking frequency attunement, feminine reclamation, and the subtle (and not-so-subtle) influences of mind control that can hijack our energy without us realizing it. I get personal about how I've been honoring silence and returning to the truth of my own resonance. And I talk about the gnarly thing that happened when I left IG last week! This time on earth is about sovereignty. About choosing presence over performance. About creating the relationship to the Sacred that is calling us. Ooh, and I also talk about what makes this podcast unique (in case all the truth-telling didn't already make that obvious.) If you're feeling the pull to unplug, reclaim your energy, and realign with your true creative frequency, this one's for you.

We're back for part two of an eye-opening, soul-stirring conversation with Seren Bertrand. We're talking sacred sexuality, feminine energy, and that beautiful, mystical power that lives in your body, especially in your vulva. Seren shares her own story of reclaiming her sensual energy and reminds us why our bodies are not only wise, but sacred. If you've ever felt disconnected or just a little curious about what it means to feel truly alive and sensual in your skin again, you're in the right place. Seren is the brilliant Author of Womb Awakening and a guiding voice in the feminine awakening space. She has this incredible way of weaving ancient wisdom with real-life, grounded practices that help you reconnect with your body in a way that feels both magical and doable. We talk about how to release old energy that may be lingering in your womb space, how to connect your heart and womb through breath, and why your vulva has always been more sacred than you were ever told. This one's deeply personal, tender, and empowering all at once. And hey—while you're pouring love back into your body, don't miss my new favorite daily ritual: Mighty Maca Mango.

I talk about the energy leaks caused by people-pleasing, the freedom in owning our Manifestor aura, and the transformational magic that unfolds when we stop dimming our light and start taking up space like we were born to do. This episode is a call to all disruptors, way-showers, and soul-led leaders: Our gifts are needed. Our energy is sacred. And we were never meant to fit in, we were born to lead.

Send us a textIn Ep. 206, host Andrea Atherton sits down with mystical coach Madison Creel to explore what happens when we lose ourselves in relationships—and how the unraveling can be a sacred invitation back home to the self. Through the shared language of spiritual healing and subconscious transformation, Andrea and Madison reflect on what it means to pour so much of ourselves into love that, when it ends, we're left with nothing but the echo of who we once were. This episode offers an honest, heart-led look at the soul work required to rebuild from the inside out.Together, they discuss how early childhood wounds and unconscious beliefs quietly shape the way we relate, attach, and abandon our own needs in the name of connection. Madison vulnerably shares her personal story of self-forgetting and how the grief of losing herself in past relationships cracked her open to a deeper truth: that love must first be rooted within. Andrea brings her wisdom from decades of therapeutic and spiritual work, guiding the conversation toward the importance of reclaiming the parts of ourselves we've exiled for the sake of being chosen. This is a dialogue between two women who understand that true healing is not about getting back to who you were before love, but about becoming who you were always meant to be.If you've ever woken up after a breakup and wondered where you went, this episode will feel like a warm hand on your heart. Andrea and Madison offer more than insight—they offer hope, compassion, and the tools to begin again. Whether you're navigating the aftermath of a relationship or simply realizing how often you abandon yourself in the pursuit of love, this sacred conversation is a map back to your wholeness.

With Bend Studio laying off 30% of its staff as it gears up to enter a lengthy pre-production stage, it's clear their next release (should it ever materialize) will be on PlayStation 6. This is just the most recent example in a lengthening string of Sony absolutely botching its first party initiative, deploying teams on projects that make no sense, purchasing studios that have never even released a game, and complicating a service game strategy that -- at least on paper -- made a lot of sense. Where does the buck stop, exactly? And how lucky is Sony and the PlayStation brand that they've been able to coast almost entirely on external content and commercial inertia all the while? Plus: MindsEye is a complete disaster, Stellar Blade becomes PlayStation Publishing's most-played single-player PC port, Capcom and Konami reveal Resident Evil Requiem and Silent Hill Remake respectively, the Outer Worlds 2's $80 price point infuriates some, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is somehow coming to PlayStation 4, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! When Colin talks about a hypothetical AAA Mega Man game, what exactly is he envisioning? Why did Microsoft include the PS5 logo so readily during its showcase? Will GameStop ever stop selling opened games as new?
