Podcasts about Sacred Ground

In her beautiful book: Ordinary Mysticism: Your Life as Sacred Ground, Bestselling author, translator, and celebrated spiritual teacher, Mirabai Starr Invites us to let go of the limiting belief that spiritual life exists only in traditional places of worship. She shares:You can visit an ashram in the Himalayas,Or kneel in a church pew to connect to the spirit or examine life's big questions—but these aren't the only opportunities to discover the sacred. Life itself, is holy ground. When we choose to embrace Ordinary Mysticism We begin to find magic in the mundane -from weeding in our humble gardens, to a slow evening walk with a friend, to a full kitchen table surrounded by family.Our everyday lives become an encounter with the sacred. In this second conversation in our mini series on the power of mystery and wonder,Mirabai, who has been honored as one of the 100 most spiritually influential living people,Will share much more about Ordinary Mysticism. Including: More of her story, Favorite practices, and powerful insights she's gained from decades of spiritual practice, teaching, and writing.And because it's foundational in creating the conditions for mystical experiences to unfold,We'll explore the power of presence. Mirabai reminding us that when we slow down, When we pay closer attention to our lives,And when we open our hearts and minds to what is -The ordinary starts to show up as miraculous, the boring becomes fascinating, our own shortcomings can turn out to be our greatest gifts. And, we ultimately discover the possibility of being more alive as we awaken to the interconnectedness between all things.For more on Mirabai, Ordinary Mysticism, her books, other writing, teaching and live events, please visit mirabaistarr.comDid you find this episode inspiring?

In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, host Dr. John W. Price welcomes Mirabai Starr—acclaimed translator of the mystics, teacher of interspiritual wisdom, and luminous guide to the sacred woven through daily life. Together, they explore the heart of ordinary mysticism: discovering holiness not only in monasteries or mountaintops, but in the tender rhythms of our own existence. Mirabai opens her story with radical honesty—her countercultural Jewish upbringing, alternative education, and the teachers and traditions that shaped her. The conversation turns to how rigid ideas of “being spiritual” can keep us from true intimacy with the divine, and how humility, humor, and embodiment restore us to a living spirituality. Mirabai shares how the death of her teenage daughter became a devastating but sacred initiation, revealing grief as one of the deepest portals into divine love. Moving between ancient voices and her own life, Mirabai offers a mysticism that is fiercely tender, humble, embodied, and accessible to all. This dialogue invites us to see our own lives as sacred ground—woven with loss and beauty, pain and joy, shadow and wonder. Key Takeaways Mysticism is accessible in everyday life, not just in monasteries or religious settings. Rigid religious or cultural ideas of “spirituality” can block authentic spiritual experience. Embodiment and emotions—especially grief—are sacred entry points into deeper connection. Translating the mystics is less about history than entering a living dialogue across time. Friendship, humor, humility, and even money can be part of an integrated spiritual life.

Whiz confronts the chaos and pain head-on, but he doesn't leave us there. He reminds us that no matter what is happening in the world, each of us is responsible for our healing. No one else can do it for us.We are the pilot-in-command of our own aircraft.

What's the best way to make coffee? From Italian moka pots to $600 espresso machines, Dom Bettinelli, Thomas Sanjurjo & Victor Lams debate coffee tech.

30. Oktober 1996: Beim Besuch auf dem Höhlenplaneten der Nekani kommt Kes, von ihrer Neugierde geleitet, dem Kraftfeld eines Schreins gefährlich nahe. Ihre Captain versucht zu retten, was zu retten ist, was eine Aneinanderreihung von Prüfungen, Dagobah Style, mit sich bringt – doch das gesamte Prozedere ist eigentlich nur dazu da, Janeways, unsere und Star Treks Regeln & Erwartungen auf den Kopf zu stellen.

On Sunday evening, June 22, 2025, a terrorist at St Elias Orthodox Church in the Dweilaa neighborhood of Damascus killed at least 22 worshippers and injured 63. Why is martyrdom prominent in the life of the church, and what can we learn from it

Late-night on South Dakota's plains, a tribal elder naps at a deserted rest stop—until three invisible voices speak Lakota just outside his window. Miles away, a lone driver picks up a silent hitchhiker whose purse turns into a coiled bull snake, and family dogs cower while a faceless, hat-wearing giant “dances” beneath a yard light, taunting them until dawn. Drawn from living reservation lore, these encounters blur the line between cautionary legend and flesh-and-blood terror. Are they spirits guarding sacred ground, the fabled Deer Woman hunting careless men, or something far older that still patrols the prairie after dark?   If you have a real ghost story or supernatural event to report, please write into our show at http://www.realghoststoriesonline.com/ or call 1-855-853-4802!

God's creation was never meant for us to passively occupy or consume — it's always been accompanied by a call to actively participate in its flourishing and fruitfulness. From Eden to now, stewardship is a sacred thing. It shapes creation, reveals our faith, and transforms our lives. What we tend—or fail to tend—forms us and the world around us.

James Canton is an author and lecturer whose writing is mainly concerned with the ties between nature, literature and the environment. Often involving exploring the distant past, his books include Ancient Wondering, From Cairo to Baghdad, and The Oak Papers. His most recent book Grounded takes him on a journey through England, considering the private markers in the landscape which are sacred to individuals and which connect us to the people from our past. In this episode of Nature Revisited, James reveals how our ancient ancestors were not as primitive as we might imagine, as well as what we can learn from - and how we're connected to - the sacred sites and grounds of our landscapes.

A visit to Pilgrim State Psychiatric Center on Long Island quickly turned into a terrifying experience when Brian and his friends ventured into the foggy woods to explore the abandoned hospital grounds. But the real fear came when Brian later researched the site, only to discover a warning from a local tribe—Pilgrim State was built on sacred burial grounds, and the spirits of ancestors might follow you home. Almost immediately after reading the warning, an unexplainable and deafening noise rang through Brian's apartment. Was it the spirits of Pilgrim State following them, or just coincidence?
