Early Christian and Byzantine Architecture. 4th ed. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1986. Essential. This is the backbone source for early Christian basilicas, liturgical space, urban context, and the development of Christian architecture after Constantine. Krautheimer is especially useful for not treating churches as isolated floor plans, but as part of city, ritual, bishop, patronage, and memory.Krautheimer, Richard. Rome: Profile of a City, 312–1308. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1980. Very useful for Rome as a layered city: imperial remains, Christian churches, papal authority, public space, and the transformation of Roman urban memory.Krautheimer, Richard, Wolfgang Frankl, and Spencer Corbett. Corpus Basilicarum Christianarum Romae: The Early Christian Basilicas of Rome. 5 vols. Vatican City: Pontificio Istituto di Archeologia Cristiana, 1937–1977. Heavy academic reference work. Best for the Lateran, Old Saint Peter's, early Roman churches, plans, architectural evidence, and dating.Mathews, Thomas F. The Early Churches of Constantinople: Architecture and Liturgy. University Park: Pennsylvania State University Press, 1971. More focused on Constantinople, but excellent for connecting architecture and liturgical movement.White, L. Michael. Building God's House in the Roman World: Architectural Adaptation among Pagans, Jews, and Christians. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1990. Great for the transition from house settings and adapted spaces into larger public Christian architecture.Brandenburg, Hugo. Ancient Churches of Rome from the Fourth to the Seventh Century: The Dawn of Christian Architecture in the West. Turnhout: Brepols, 2005. Very useful for Rome, the Lateran, Santa Maria Maggiore, Santa Sabina, and the formation of Christian public architecture.Snyder, Graydon F. Ante Pacem: Archaeological Evidence of Church Life Before Constantine. Macon: Mercer University Press, 2003. Best for the “before Constantine” contrast: house churches, burial spaces, symbols, and pre-public Christian material culture.Elsner, Jaś. Imperial Rome and Christian Triumph: The Art of the Roman Empire AD 100–450. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1998. Excellent for the transformation from Roman imperial art and space into Christian visual culture and triumphal imagery. Elsner's work is especially useful for your “empire becomes the bones of the church” angle.Constantine, Legal Shift, and Imperial PatronageEusebius. Life of Constantine. Translated by Averil Cameron and Stuart G. Hall. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1999. Primary source. Use carefully because it is highly pro-Constantine and partly panegyric, but it is essential for Constantine's Christian image, patronage, and sacred building projects. Eusebius is one of the key ancient witnesses for Constantine's role in Christian imperial memory.Eusebius. Ecclesiastical History. Translated by Kirsopp Lake. Loeb Classical Library. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1926–1932. Useful background for the pre-Constantinian church, persecution memory, martyr tradition, and Christian self-understanding before public imperial patronage.Barnes, Timothy D. Constantine and Eusebius. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1981. Major scholarly source on Constantine, Eusebius, politics, Christian patronage, and imperial ideology.Drake, H. A. Constantine and the Bishops: The Politics of Intolerance. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2000. Excellent for the political complexity of Constantine's relationship with bishops and Christian institutions.Lenski, Noel, ed. The Cambridge Companion to the Age of Constantine. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2006. Good edited volume for Constantine's world: religion, politics, empire, law, cities, and Christianization.Odahl, Charles Matson. Constantine and the Christian Empire. 2nd ed. London: Routledge, 2010. Useful general scholarly overview, especially for readers/listeners who need the historical framework.MacMullen, Ramsay. Christianizing the Roman Empire: A.D. 100–400. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1984. Classic work on Christianization as a social and political process.Brown, Peter. The Rise of Western Christendom: Triumph and Diversity, A.D. 200–1000. 3rd ed. Malden, MA: Wiley-Blackwell, 2013. Excellent big-picture framing. Helps avoid the cartoon version where Constantine instantly creates medieval Christianity.Basilicas, Liturgy, Space, and the BodyYasin, Ann Marie. Saints and Church Spaces in the Late Antique Mediterranean: Architecture, Cult, and Community. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2009. Very strong for how churches organized community, memory, saints, ritual space, and sacred presence.Yasin, Ann Marie. “Sacred Installations: The Material Conditions of Liturgy in Late Antique Churches.” In Objects in Context, Objects in Use, edited by Luke Lavan, Ellen Swift, and Toon Putzeys. Leiden: Brill, 2007. Useful for altars, liturgical furnishing, and how sacred space is made materially.Bowes, Kim. Private Worship, Public Values, and Religious Change in Late Antiquity. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2008. Good for the public/private transition, elite patronage, domestic religion, and late antique religious change.Markus, R. A. The End of Ancient Christianity. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1990. Important for the shift from ancient Christian worlds into more structured post-Constantinian Christianity.Brown, Peter. The Cult of the Saints: Its Rise and Function in Latin Christianity. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1981. This will become even more important for your next episode on martyrs, relics, tombs, bones, and pilgrimage.MacCormack, Sabine. Art and Ceremony in Late Antiquity. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1981. Great for public ceremony, imperial ritual, Christian adaptation, and how power becomes theatrical and architectural.Lateran, Old Saint Peter's, and Holy SepulchreDavis, Raymond. The Book of Pontiffs: The Ancient Biographies of the First Ninety Roman Bishops to AD 715. Rev. ed. Liverpool: Liverpool University Press, 2010. Translation of the Liber Pontificalis. Useful for the Lateran, papal memory, church foundations, donations, and claims about Constantine.Mango, Cyril. The Art of the Byzantine Empire, 312–1453: Sources and Documents. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1986. Excellent sourcebook for texts on Christian art, architecture, and sacred building.Ward-Perkins, J. B. “The Shrine of St. Peter's and Its Twelve Spiral Columns.” Journal of Roman Studies 42, no. 1–2 (1952): 21–33. Very useful for Old Saint Peter's, reused columns, Solomonic column traditions, and apostolic memory. The tradition of reused marble columns at Old Saint Peter's directly supports your spolia-and-memory section.Krautheimer, Richard. “Mensa-Coemeterium-Martyrium.” Cahiers Archéologiques 11 (1960): 15–40. Important for tomb, altar, martyr memory, and architectural development.Wilken, Robert Louis. The Land Called Holy: Palestine in Christian History and Thought. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1992. Useful for Jerusalem, holy geography, sacred memory, and the Holy Sepulchre.Taylor, Joan E. Christians and the Holy Places: The Myth of Jewish-Christian Origins. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1993. Strong source for holy places, memory, archaeology, and early Christian sacred geography.Biddle, Martin. The Tomb of Christ. Stroud: Sutton Publishing, 1999. Useful for Holy Sepulchre archaeology and the architectural framing of crucifixion, burial, and resurrection.Spolia, Reused Stone, and Roman Material InheritanceKinney, Dale. “Spolia. Damnatio and Renovatio Memoriae.” Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome 42 (1997): 117–148. One of the key scholarly pieces for spolia, memory, reuse, and interpretation.Kinney, Dale. “Rape or Restitution of the Past? Interpreting Spolia.” In The Art of Interpreting, edited by Susan C. Scott, 52–67. University Park: Pennsylvania State University Press, 1995. Great for your nuance: spolia is not always theft, not always theology, not always conquest. It can be practical, symbolic, aesthetic, political, or all of those at once.Brilliant, Richard, and Dale Kinney, eds. Reuse Value: Spolia and Appropriation in Art and Architecture from Constantine to Sherrie Levine. Farnham: Ashgate, 2011. Excellent broader collection on reuse, appropriation, memory, and architectural meaning.Hansen, Maria Fabricius. The Eloquence of Appropriation: Prolegomena to an Understanding of Spolia in Early Christian Rome. Rome: L'Erma di Bretschneider, 2003. Very relevant to your point that reused materials could create a meaningful Christian aesthetic, not just a cheap construction solution.Brenk, Beat. “Spolia from Constantine to Charlemagne: Aesthetics versus Ideology.” Dumbarton Oaks Papers 41 (1987): 103–109. Very useful for the practical-versus-symbolic debate.Greenhalgh, Michael. The Survival of Roman Antiquities in the Middle Ages. London: Duckworth, 1989. Good for how Roman materials, statues, columns, and monuments survive, are reused, or are reinterpreted.Pensabene, PatrizioAlso want to remind people about the website, if you're into reading we have tons of information by multiple contributors, and we got t-shirts up on the site if you're interested. Fun fact, the art is all based on the eyeball. 

In this episode, Dean Horswell chats with Rachel Harris about her recent research on the IDF archive and the early formation of Israeli film culture. Their conversation moves beyond the finished article to the process itself: what it means to actually undertake archival research, to work inside military and state archives, and to piece together a history from fragmentary, uneven, and sometimes resistant sources. They discuss the intellectual and methodological stakes of reading institutional archives critically, the challenges of access and interpretation, and how archival discoveries can reshape established narratives about cinema, nation-building, and cultural production.

We're thrilled to kick off our first episode of Víga-Glúms saga, the last of the sagas of Eyjafjörð. Víga-Glúms saga is one of the great character-driven Íslendingasögur, often drawing comparisons to Egils saga. Now, whether that's because it also happens to be a biographical saga or because it's of a similar quality will have to be sorted out on the podcast across the overview and judgments. But we're excited to start this new saga either way, and this first episode sets the stage beautifully for the arrival of the man who comes to be known as Killer-Glum. Like so many sagas, Víga-Glúms saga opens not with the hero himself but with the adventures of the generations that came before him. These early chapters give us a sense of the family dynamics, the local tensions, and threads of fate that Glum will inherit and inevitably wrestle with as his saga develops. Cast of Characters: I'm going to try and include a cast of major characters in the show notes for each episode to help listeners keep track of things. In this first episode, we get to know Glum's formidable ancestors, including: Helgi the Lean, Glúm's great-grandfather and the most prominent settler in Eyjafjörð Ingjald Helgason, Glúm's grumpy grandfather Eyjólf, Glúm's mild-mannered but calculating father Of course, this wouldn't be Saga Thing without a few memorable supporting characters to make things interesting. This episode introduces some pretty interesting Norwegians: Hreiðar, a Norwegian merchant with a heart of gold Ívar, a Viking with a heart of red (also Hreiðar's brother) A berserk with a notably low sense of self-worth, whose attempts at intimidation don't quite land the way he hopes Vigfús, a powerful Norwegian hersir with a lovely daughter named Ástrið And then, there are the Icelanders who will make Glúm's life more interesting, and challenging: Þorkell the Tall, father-in-law of Glúm's recently deceased brother Sigmund, son of Þorkell the Tall, and wannabe goði Víga-Glúms saga is definitely a fun one that we've been saving for a while. We hope you enjoy this first episode!

Rural speech is often denigrated, but how might it also be valuable? How might rural economies benefit from their linguistic diversity through tourism? In this third and final installment of our “Is Talk Cheap?” series on language and value, Kate and Ariana interview Dr. Thea Strand about a highly valorized dialect of rural Norway that won a national popularity contest and is increasingly being used commercially. Dr. Strand gives us some background on how the political and cultural history of Norway has produced a deep appreciation of dialect diversity and an ethos against language standardization. We talk about how the Valdres dialect is now used commercially for tourists in diverse places, from wayfinding signs on ski trails to advertising car washes at gas stations. Learn the significance of a single vowel in advertising a festival for fermented fish! We discuss hyperlocal language use, language change over time, and why some kinds of linguistic difference are available to use in marketing when others are not. In the last part of the episode, Thea tells us about her new research with Michael Wroblewski on another aspect of this rural economy: the decline of transhumance (the seasonal movement of grazing livestock) among local family farmers. Residents lament the resulting reforestation and their changing landscape alongside their changing dialect, underscoring how people experience economic transformations through landscape and language. Thea Strand is a Senior Lecturer in Anthropology at Loyola University Chicago. Her primary research is sited in rural Valdres, Norway, examining language and political economy, broadly construed. She has studied changes in linguistic structure, value, and ideologies surrounding the distinctive Valdres dialect since the late 2000s. Her current project focuses on the deeply intertwined environmental, cultural, and linguistic effects of tourism development and declining transhumant farming in Valdres' mountain areas.   Co-hosted by Dr. Kathryn Graber [Link] and Ariana Gunderson [Link].

For the fifth episode, Layman sits down with John Vervaeke to explore the topic from the three angles John considers essential: the (cognitive) scientific, the philosophical, and the spiritual. John discusses why the initial announcements about LLM breakthroughs left him concerned and dismayed; why he is distrustful of both the apocalyptic and utopian claims around AI; what his greatest concerns and hopes are, and what the best paths forward are for mitigating the alignment problem; and why he thinks theology, surprisingly, will become central and relevant again. John Vervaeke is a professor of psychology at Toronto University and creator of the popular YouTube series "Awakening from the Meaning Crisis" and "After Socrates."

In Re/thinking Religion, a new Integral Stage series, John Vervaeke joins Bruce Alderman and Layman Pascal to explore possible points of contact and confluence between their respective approaches to religion and spirituality. For the tenth episode, Bruce, Layman, and John reflect on the groundbreaking work of 4E cognitive scientists, Francisco Varela and Evan Thompson, especially their perspectives on the role of the imaginal in perception, healing, self-transformation, and the development of wisdom; the five criteria for the wise use of the imaginal in education, therapy, and religious practice; the need to rehabilitate the 'place' of the imaginal in common understanding; and the potential risks of the exploitative commodification and commercialization of the fruits of the cognitive scientific study of religion and spirituality (along the lines of "McMindfulness"), and how that can be avoided with a fuller, more integral understanding and practice of cognitive science. John Vervaeke is a cognitive scientist, a professor of psychology at Toronto University, and the creator of the popular YouTube series, "Awakening from the Meaning Crisis."

Building a Community Movement for Better Transit feat. James Wilt: Saturday, March 18th | University of Alberta. RSVP: michaeljanz.ca/transitcamp2023 A few short years into Alberta PC Premier Ralph Klein's deficit-slashing austerity regime, Calgary's hospital laundry workers were given devastating news: they were going to be fired. Having been pushed to the brink, they took to the streets the next day on a wildcat strike. Soon, the city would be galvanized by the strike, with sympathy strikes soon forcing Klein's government to cancel health spending cuts and talk of a general strike in the air.    Our episode ends with an excerpt from Yvette Lynch, laundry worker and CUPE 8 member.    Listen to our previous episode on TORIES: Peter Lougheed, and check out our two-part series on why Ralph Klein sucked: Part 1, Part 2.   Further Reading: Chambers, Allan.

In Re/thinking Religion, a new Integral Stage series, John Vervaeke joins Bruce Alderman and Layman Pascal to explore possible points of contact and confluence between their respective approaches to religion and spirituality. For the 9th episode, Bruce, Layman and John continue the themes from the previous discussion and focus in on the roles of art and the imaginal in state training and cross-cultural mediation; the question of normativity and rationality in ritual and contemplative aesthetics; the importance of the participatory dimension of art, and the need to emphasize shifts in tonality, rhythm, time, and structured performance, beyond the typical emphasis on the visual, in religious art and practice. They also touch on the broader social roles (to be) played by integral spirituality or the religion that is not a religion.

Guests: Brendan Kennedy and Morgan Bocknek, investigative reporters, and Leah Mosier-Farquharson, TMU student A string of sexual assaults and security incidents on the Toronto Metropolitan University campus have left many students and faculty members worrying for their safety and deeply critical of the school's response. After two women were assaulted at Kerr Hall last year, some students were so frustrated by a lack of information from the administration that they formed their own security network on social media. We talk to Star investigative reporters Morgan Bocknek and Brendan Kennedy about what happened and TMU student Leah Mosier-Farquharson about the impacts on campus. A Toronto Metropolitan University official said the campus is safe and TMU has increased security in the building where two people were attacked. This episode was produced by Alexis Green, Paulo Marques and Saba Eitizaz.

Paul and Bill welcomed Paul Seungoh Chung to discuss how people can converse constructively about God despite their different backgrounds and different faith journeys. Dr. Chung, who has taught Christianity and science courses at the University of Toronto, is the author of God at the Crossroads of Worldviews: Toward a Different Debate about the Existence of God (University of Notre Dame Press, 2016).  He also produces a podcast, “What Do You Mean God Speaks?”—a presentation of his ongoing research and reflection for a second manuscript. His compelling comments, citing Bible stories and other resources, aim to follow up on the book's hopeful message: When two persons seeking God along different paths find a crossroads where they can share key ideas, how do they take the next steps to pursue meaning and purpose through further spiritual and intellectual inquiry? The crossroads “sets the frame to start the journey,” he explained in our interview. Dr. Chung holds a Ph.D. in the philosophy of religion from Fuller Theological Seminary.  He earned a Master of Religion degree from Wycliffe College, an evangelical graduate school rooted in the Anglican tradition at the University of Toronto. As an undergraduate at the University of Toronto – University of Trinity College, he received a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology and philosophy. He has served as a pastor at local churches in Toronto and has worked with a mission organization, Canada Mosaic Christian Alliance. Dr. Chung's references during our conversation included the philosophical insights of Alasdair MacIntyre at the University of Notre Dame, the concept of “paradigm shifts” described by philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn, and the atheistic argumentation of physicist Stephen Hawking.

Why do people in general you're so limited thought process Rest assured, you are not alone. The world is slowly waking up to what you already know inside yet can't quite verbalize. Welcome to the spiritual dough podcast, the show that answers the question you never even knew to ask, but knew the answers to questions about you this world the people in it? Most importantly, how do I proceed? Now moving forward? We don't even have all the answers, but we sure do love living in the question some time for another hit of spiritual dub with your host, Brandon Handley. Let's get right into today's episode. Brandon Handley 0:42 Hey there spiritual dope. I'm on here today with Dr. and Master Shaw, who is a prominent figure in many disciplines, science, medicine, meditation, spirituality, art, and he is also a New York Times best selling author name a few. He recently came onto my radar when he toasted an ambitious science and spirituality conference last month titled The tapping the source Summit, where he was a featured speaker alongside brilliant minds of Deepak Chopra and Ervin Laszlo. But the best way to introduce master Shaw is that he is one of the leading voices in the space of alternative healing and integrating conventional health methods with spirituality, meditation and improve consciousness. And finally, Master Shaw's healing methods integrate it focus on the power of self healing Body, Mind spirit and positive energy. Tall science combines traditional practices such as meditation manifestation, traditional Chinese medicine, Tai Chi and calligraphy with modern approaches and the healing mindfulness and psychology. Some mouthful. But Master Shaw, so happy to have you here today. Master Sha 1:47 Great, it's my great honor. Thank you. Brandon Handley 1:50 Absolutely. So I usually start this off in one way. But I think that you, you had mentioned that if you can kind of distill wisdom down into a single sentence, and that must mean that you have mastered it very well. So my question to you is what would be one line of wisdom that you would share with the audience today? Master Sha 2:12 Today, I would like to share, you have the power to heal yourself. You have the power to heal yourself. I have the power to heal myself together. We have the power to heal the world. Brandon Handley 2:23 That's yeah, I love it. I love it. And you know, as I understand it, you got your start at a very young age and martial arts. And you continued on to ACC, you puncture you've got a doctorate and then you continue to just go out and heal these people all over the world. Unknown Speaker 2:42 Yes, Master Sha 2:44 I grew up at the age of six I went to the park with my parents, or Tai Chi Grindmaster the strategic Marcia and the disabled the pulling hand the Master Chen to move the disabled poor 15 feet away. I ran to the master I say yay, music when the father I want to learn is he look at me is such a young gay 60 years old, right? No, no, no, no, no, you're too young. No, no, no, no, no. Yeah, yeah, I want it. I know he's, I wants to, I want to say your parents around my parents. And with grid support. I started my age at the age of six. Yeah, wow, that was awesome that later you know, everybody know China Qigong, Kung Fu eating Fung Shui, Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, and are as artists now I have my healing cancer, happiness source with the Dow signs, all the things that we introduced, I positioned myself serving. That's all for humanity. Brandon Handley 3:50 But in listening to one of your books, I understand that you know, you are kind of the vessel for the divine right as a servant of the Divine for humanity. What's that look like for you? Could you explain that to the audience? Master Sha 4:03 Thank you so much. About the 20 years ago, inland amazing Buddha saw kill California and with full tempo people got up here, but I still diagnose it. As everybody see down there. God see here and I grew from China. I need to honor God. I said it Okay, everybody, no need to do anything. I bought onto the floor. I said, Dear God, thank you so much, because it's my spiritual courtesy. God punishing myself today I come here to share you a universal law. And he said, I am a universal servant. He pointed me you are a universal servant. He's where his hand everyone everything is a universal servant, or universal servant offers universal service unconditionally. If a person offer little service, little blessing received little blessing. If a person offer more service, we see more blessing. If pours in offer unconditional service of unlimited blessing. I see Dear God, I make I'm making a vow to you now, I want to offer my service for humanity unconditionally and a goddess smile and the he left Brandon Handley 5:19 you go and So, ever since then you have been giving of yourself unconditionally Is that Is that fair to say? Master Sha 5:28 Yeah, after that why I try what a 20 years and 11 miles per year. So, I basically you know, air air airport hotel, hotel airport, and I seldom go to any sightseeing, I offer the healing to two to 3am all the time as a healer. So therefore, I was uniquely in that apart. I serve that noun style keyboard workshop. Now I have a trend the 1000s of healers, more and more more medical professional call me. So therefore, my goal like I say just now you asked me one sentence, I am serve serve healing. Because I have created Saudi and Saudi and heart touching result. And I train healers. I teach you serve healing come by ancient the Buddhism Taoism, Confucianism, the eyes of essence Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, energy, spiritual healing together, and now calligraphy, Tao sound Tao water and a silica a package for humanity. Brandon Handley 6:34 Right. I love it. And for the people that are just tuning in and listening to this one today. You master Shaw doesn't you know this isn't? You're working with big people. Right? You're working with very few billionaires millionaires are tuned into Queen what's what's the Queen's first name? Master Sha 6:55 nplb Yeah, Brandon Handley 6:57 yeah. So I mean, you know, this is a, you know, regions and, you know, monarchs. So when you when you think about, you know, who is he helping? And who's he working with? You know, the gentleman who was the inspiration for Jerry Maguire. He's worked with him to have great success. And now he's going on and sharing stuff on about Master Shawn introducing you to so many people, this, this is all true, right? I'm not making this up. And so I want to make sure the audience is yours or hurt. If they're not already familiar with you, because the work that you're doing out there, it's to help to heal people. But there's also all these ways that you are helping people to become more prosperous and find abundance in their life. Is that true? Master Sha 7:41 Yes. The story just so you mentioned David martyr, go to Instagram. Famous Speaker Now TV show organizer, you know, and also the coach and 10 years ago, and Bill Gladstone is like a book agent for Deepak Chopra and Aki Toller. Tammy theories and also like Jack Canfield, all of them, and he introduced me to the David a martyr. I asked, David, what can I help you? David said, I want the more money. The more money Brandon Handley 8:18 to show the money, right? You said show me the money. Oh, yeah. He Master Sha 8:22 said, I want more money. And you know, like this app, I can make click with the table. And by the way, he lost $100 million. Brandon Handley 8:30 That's not the money to lose. Yeah, that's a lot. Yeah. Yeah, Master Sha 8:34 there's lots of money he lost. And you know what I did? Everybody relax. Brandon Handley 8:43 So those who are just listening right now, Mr. Shaw is drawing some calligraphy, which is a big part of what it is that he does. So he's Johnson calligraphy here. And he's gonna walk us through it. Master Sha 8:55 Yeah. And that Tao means the source or ultimately the source allows the ultimate origin Yeah, Mr. Korea, Chang Shu. chun chun means of flourishing, David Marshall last one a million dollars. And he asked for money. I said all the calligraphy and I said everyday put your hand together. Just to follow the path. And David Emerson gave a testimony. He said, I try over 200 days, more or less a year on the airplane. I do not know how aeroplane works. But I have the face for airplane which can bring me to one place to another place. But I have the face for massage as a dog calligraphy. Master shall say the dog Korea flourishing. Master shall say that this wants to give me a blessing. He never received a John any workshop not even know half hour. She just did 10 minutes a day. She said I could not believe the moment I start to do this Isn't my business start to change? Beginnings is a piece of more or less than 1.5 million per year, one and a half years later, she has a business to become a 60 million. Now 100 million. And he said before you asked me, he interviewed me many times, as a who's the most skeptical for Master Sha? David, I do not believe you at all. But now who is the most of believe you meet David also? Brandon Handley 10:28 That's great. Let's, let's talk through it right, because I do quite a bit of conversations and around prosperity and, you know, kind of giving in to faith or, you know, tapping into source, right and allowing it to flow through you. I imagine that's kind of what's happening here, when they're doing the calligraphy but could you walk me through, like, what that process is, you know, my tapping into source and allowing it to flow through me and, you know, surrendering unconditionally, what's happening here, Master Sha 11:00 okay. Basically, let me share ancient wisdom. If you want a wisdom, you will spread the wisdom, you teach people how to try and come alive, spirituality, spiritual wisdom, the technologies, the wisdom and the techniques and wisdom. If you want wisdom, you spread the truth. If you want the money, you'll give money to others in up this is really with the past life, the past life, like now a natural disaster, you know your environment that children, no parents, people, no food, no house, in a past life, you will serve the poor you will give lots of money, this life, heaven give you back again. Why your life some people try so hard to economic money, because we have not served enough for before. So therefore, many people struggle this. So therefore how to do that. I teach you forgiveness. Remember Jesus, you are forgiving miracle happen. So there are four very important wisdom is to talk with heaven. Divine if you believe or source. You said, my name is Chi Gong Shah. I do not know my past life. But in my I believe some people totally believe some people may not believe us. I do not know how much I believe. But I believe as a human being we all make mistakes. I'm very sure nobody told me you'll never make mistakes. I believe the challenges I have now in finance, or maybe her relationship, maybe something I did wrong. I may not realize Can you forgive me? Very sincere. So that's the key ask your forgiveness czar connect with the source what the David Mars has said every determinists. Now I understand are is that we can see we can touch by the source we cannot master shall talk Cree graphy is bring the source love light, the frequency vibration, invisible power, we see I connect. So my my interference, my blockage remove the door just open for me. That's a whole group if it works. Brandon Handley 13:18 Yeah, no, I love it. I love it. And you have you have so many modalities that you've been teaching over the years. Another one that you talk about is singing, right and kind of vibrating from within. So could you talk a little bit about how singing does something similar? Master Sha 13:33 Yes. You know, and the song. I want to share like that. About 17 years ago, I was in the bay area where the wooded area very famous area with my two teachers, three teachers that I said, you know, I said can you give me a song for healing? Everybody can said God if you believe God, the moment the moment the rainbow app, the strong force coming up rainbow light. My sword I show the rainbow light and the pool flew down I opened a massive Lulla Lulla Lulla Lulla Lulla Lulla Lulla Lulla Lulla Lulla I just know this God of soul voice. I said God that what is mean for that? God said I love my heart so I love all humanity. John Hart and the source together. Love peace, harmony, love peace, harmony, that I said God how to say I love my heart on soul. I love all you minor T John hearts and souls Unknown Speaker 14:44 to gather love, peace and harmony. Love Peace and harmony. Master Sha 14:57 This is a no no These people sending so I have a love peace, how many.org Free Download gifts for humanity. And also another one is the scene is called Towson. I wrote the ball. You know, everybody know I remember the flag famous singer in us. And 10 years ago, give her one time a private healing. And she said Master Sha, who taught do you say me? God? God? Yes. What the guarded kid did teach you. I said, God that teach me senior from the lower abdomen. And then she said, while she was fascinated, she said, while she was at the teenagers, for sound, the coach asked her, where's the virtual core? Of course, we know it's your vocal cord, and her co personna coaches and No, no vocal cord is in the genitals. She says you never heard people talk about that. And she was fascinating. She and after giving her one time here, he gave me a quote a very nice comments for my service for my senior now. Just a Hangout, a first 1000 Healing concert. And Quinn DMB was there and the hostess show and the princess and Isabel, who is a famous opera singer award opera singer with Domingo and such in the same state, she come down with other singers. We had a great fight, and not too long ago. Brandon Handley 16:29 I love it. And you know, so you again, you're connecting with some people that have that a lot of people I think, when they see rich and famous people, they see rich and fame and they don't kind of give the credit to maybe the service that they're giving in mass. Right you So you talk about giving service like unconditional service to many, many people, right? The more that you can serve, the more that kind of flows through you. Would you say that's true? Master Sha 16:59 That's absolutely true. You know, remember God gave me a universal law I shared earlier if you serve a little little blessing. Now I you know, like now, I have 1000 healers, and people honor me a lot. But what I did now I'm doing now. Instagram, every day, Monday to Friday 12 to 12 Five freezing me just by a few days. Save 8800 People Riley we live I turned on, okay, this is nothing guarantee. Experience the power of daily healing, back pain, shoulder pain, choose one area cancer depression. Hi. Unknown Speaker 17:39 Hey, Hi, are you are you We are your ya yo Hey, yo, hey, yo, yo, yo, hi. Hi, yah, yah, yah. Yah, yah, yah. Hi. Yah, yah, yo, Master Sha 17:55 five minutes, all the feedback.

And it's having it's having amazing results. As matter of fact, I also heard a story about you mentioned that you've got a book on healing the back right now. Yes. As I understand it, somebody received this book, and they said, You know what, I want to I don't know how much time we're gonna have to read this book. And somebody told whoever received this book. Well, you don't have to read it right away. Just put it on your back. Master Sha 18:30 That's of quinti Jambi says that her story okay you know Yeah, yeah Queen d&b You know and I say Congo, Congo Congo queen and she has a car accident in January for few months to serve up in pain she was he was with a Bill Gladstone to your grandsons okay back pain master saw he said to the top quantum healing that's a book and its own I really booked an appeal to no need to read a book massage I put a tree with a hidden Cliff greasy and couldn't be put on the back lie down there Elisa my music at the top quantum machine is silent calligraphy I have a calligraphy wall and the art radiators in reasonable light so after one session 50 minutes after session clean the obvious such a few Wow Where's Mr. Robin pain disappeared? So therefore another time a medium I got the interview almost every day just a few days ago. A lady who the book interview me you may think I'm a craze have promoted Marsha I know nothing about the master shop. But I got the book. I have a back pain massage. I said put the book on the back for 10 minutes. I did I could not believe how much better I cannot believe a healer put the put the power on the ball and see it's so fascinating. Anyway, you know because I I surf every day freely. Now I have 1000 Harder Patreon story more number one medical professional. I never promised anything. You'll believe me. You'll see the word you do not believe me see, the by the word does not matter. I would just give my love. Nobody can stop me to give love and light. Brandon Handley 20:12 That's right. That's right. Mr. Shaw. You've got a great saying about a pair, right? Share that with the audience too. For again, my audience may not be as familiar with you. What's the if? If I want to know about a pair What do I Master Sha 20:23 say that in ancient wisdom if you want to know if a pair sweet Tec if you want to know to talk clearly see Towson works. Where come Monday to Friday, five minutes, Saturday quindi Jambi after Queen DRBD concert. She was moved. Mr. Shah, I will serve you unconditionally. I said one on You're the queen. Another. No, no, Mr. Shah, you are serving. Now. She hosts my show. Every Saturday 1130. To tour we have Tao source healing with the Master Sha Quinby. And tomorrow, it is Saturday every Saturday Instagram. Now we have a private account. That may be why mostly will be open to public people had to Brandon Handley 21:04 deal Yeah, sure. That makes sense. And and you talk about Dow as dow is soars, I always thought Dow was something else. So we're talking about Dow clear. Are you talking about source calligraphy? Is that what you're saying? Master Sha 21:18 Yes. Are you know that I think that you know, everybody know Lao Tzu, The Art of the doubt the gene. So Bible and the Dow the two most popular bellies, minutes and minutes of billions of copies of word away, loudly used to honor the by all university philosophy department, lots of dollars and 81 chapters and shared the truth of politics, economics, education, spiritual journey, longevity, even your mortality. Lousy is such such a wise man. And therefore it Kidada in Facebook every Monday or chapter by chapter, or chapter 17 People respond to so well. And also one background is an I was the China longevity Council who literally lived 808 years old in China. I was the lien holder how how they happen is a 204. In the war that fifth Cuban Congress, they gave me an honor as a Chico master of a year while I was on the state I saw a doll master where the dog clothes sit down those pouches by sit on you can see the power of this master as a wah disagree the master I approached him she is the punk Chinese longevity star 372 D Major holder and he said to meet with the next day lenita holder I want to share one story is shocking to me forever. I want to Las Vegas as a rejuvenation conference that I'll talk to in a brief time sit on a wheelchair for the empty the plate. And my master said kung fu master said Chicago first name you can tell her I want to offer the healing to her goddess brig timer powerless people and I said doctor explained my theta can I speak English very well. I said I said what's your condition she said she said I get a car seat and the middle of the back spinal column cardio powerless that my teacher put the hand here on the heaven this is real story my teacher connect with the source my teacher ha big sama got contact while ago push the power and AHA and the wall for time. My teacher said stand up to work the toxic no paralyzed people for the real stand up walked this call my teachers a power is the ancient adult masters that he transmitted power to me. I did also for Paradise. So that's kind of unique power and odd anyway I do want to say too much about myself. I've created so many miracles live in just one story in India. famers baalei will start Auntie army million people know her. She has a death in Mumbai and you know in in Mumbai and a live workshop and she came I choose a demo process. She mentioned here she's 70 Something like that at least. And also take on a hearing aid behind her nothing. I use psycho punk to lay down the life of wow if you need those to hear to hear right away. So you can hear what our people cannot believe it's called Live miracle to six a death one month later I returned no hearing aids also. So I'm also another in India you know why a session? A boy had tunnel vision on it because he here never can see here in 10 minutes my healing and she cry in a family hold together. You know the you know talk to Kathy again is Chief policing for crime the association and he heard he heard the news. They brought me to the to a doctor conference MD scientists. I offered the diviner healing hat because I'm not God, I'm servant of God, God gave me all for the hand. Then I choose one Dr. Chi summation one hand that I choose a demo person. The doc says how to do I say you just asked God him to do he knew that they had to go out justify five minutes. The man and this is a miracle. I tell you, this is Md scientists session because the miracle Indian people believe miracle. Brandon Handley 25:35 Sure. So let's let's dial it back just backwards just a second, right? I mean, this is all super powerful. And amazing, right? You know, for those that didn't pick up on it, maybe I didn't mention it. You got the doctorate in acupuncture? Where would you say you went all in on spirituality? Or was spirituality always a part of what you did? And and you know, it was always integrated? You know, tell us a little bit about that. Because, you know, where or has it always been converged helped me out there. Master Sha 26:08 Thank you so much. I 85. A compassion Buddha means people know when the compassion Buddha came to me at the age of five, she appear, you know, my throat I can see she showed me, Tabby to create his compassion mantra, or your channel 551 minutes Namaha Ranaldo IA and relax. Now Mohalla Donna de la amo am bolo de de Obernai bodhisatta boy mo without a boy MO The all on your on manavi Sudano la Jana medially though Iman Walia malo Ed bologna endo phenomenology, new ED MOBA, Nozomi Nodame. Washington Zabadani. Mr. Balaji the Healy mobileread Rosa Mala Mala more emotionally doing judo Judo Jang amo variety Dora, Dora was at URI ma ma, ma, ma, Maududi, northern Walla, Walla, Raleigh Vida vida. See, I learned at the age of five, for these secret chanting tabi doors at seven Buddha's when you can everybody can be active as like, give us a forgiveness give us blessings. So there are for at the age of five already a spiritual person. Now, a whole life spiritual journey. So therefore I study modern medicine, MD, traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, hai Zhi, Jing, Qigong, Fung Shui plus pure reality or the Tao calligraphy now I put everything together I position myself service, you asked me why I sent him go, everybody has the power to heal yourself, I give you a book everybody can do the job. Brandon Handley 27:54 What do you think is keeping people from connecting with the source themselves the way that you have Master Sha 28:01 this because people in the third dimension you know, we are in third dimensional long wide high, but people forget a Buddha saints on the fourth dimension millions of people follow Jesus and Mary means people follow Buddha minutes people for Mohammed. So, this is I believe all i all know all wrong, why missing people follow them, they are in the fourth dimension. We are so complicated the human stuff here here much more simple. So therefore my teaching everybody should connect with a higher dimension with a source there are limited wisdom on limits the power or limit abilities. Force dimension has a use feed the more tech power than the third dimension Fifth Dimension God their fifth dimension has yielded the power more than forced dimension. Anyway in one sentence there are infinite dimensions this allows the teaching Tao bigger than biggest no Andy Brandon Handley 29:09 bigger than biggest no ending infinite. So if I you know I guess pick up some of your calligraphy or do some of your other teachings this allows me to maybe tap into the fourth dimension and then also gives me access to the fifth if I practice accordingly. Master Sha 29:24 Yes, you're very smart. Beginning with a third dimension to now think all I can connect with the youth in it. They will not they want to workout. I think this we're if you call the president of US office, the President will not answer the phone. The Secretary will answer the phone is it good enough already? So there are four themes in why you talk higher dimension lower dimension since come down this respond already to that the human one, we come a step so there are for calligraphy Heiser Calligraphy is transformative art. Do you connect with the fourth dimension? That'd be People connect they then later we we purify purify we more light more light like the cleaner room like the studio one light little bit light hand light much lighter so therefore the higher dimension brighter brighter brighter our face she could live physical body turned to the light the body takes the practice spiritual practice meditation chanting so therefore it's a process to be higher higher higher as no way by the way you get the highest power No, no, no, no, my whole life. We are serving the calcaneal gang gang gang gang gang that I continue gaining every day I'm learning every day I'm growing. Yeah. Brandon Handley 30:45 So let's say that I realized that the way to gain is to give right of myself so if I'm giving more so I can gain more Is that right or wrong? Like I mean is that you know, if somebody does that like you know, I've heard this before. So, what do you what do you say to that? Master Sha 31:04 Psycho psycho Very good. Very good your philosophy there towards sure the first one a good keep sure Unknown Speaker 31:18 sure Mrs. gave a good door. Master Sha 31:23 Do I miss a to receive to receive our shoulder shoulder. So therefore, by the way you think I gave I will receive Why do nada thinker receive only you give unconditionally universal we are arranged to give you back why you think I serve because I want to serve I want to gain more steel surface nice. You think about the you that's so key for spiritual journeys, forget yourself. Totally give others. That's the secret. Brandon Handley 31:56 So that, you know kind of giving without an expectation of an outcome, right? But just giving selflessly so that without any attachment to the outcome, reducing the suffering. Yes. Great. So your big thing right now is the calligraphy. Let's talk a little bit a bit more about kind of what led you into calligraphy from everything else because like I said, You did the use of the Tai Chi did all the martial arts you did the acupuncture, writing, singing, tapping. I mean, you've done so many modalities and you're helping so many people in the world today. What led you to tune into calligraphy? Master Sha 32:42 Yes, there's a famous professional, professionally chewy, but the whole secret how special she was more than 100 years. She learned is the unique art form alas the Qing Dynasty unperceived teacher she was a born in a palace and she how this unique art for whole life. She's University professional Toronto University, China tune copy that like a Stanford Harvard, most famous to university every year when she was less than one two years. Every year. She was a guest speaker for the for Teach your child's language. United Nations honor her as a Chinese language expert. So I was introduced to her she we made a documentary she shared in a documentary she said I have incontinence you know more than 100 years and I use psychopaths lower abdomen. Brianna put one needle pull electricity Gouda one time to heal the incontinence and this is okay I think I showed my interest team and she thought if much if a doctor shall kill my incontinence, I may deliver this art I think everything you think about in the higher level thinking is arranged life is arranged we know that. So therefore, she started teaching me and after I learn is by the her art not for healing, but because of my healing background for whole life. I asked my teacher I want to turn this a calligraphy Eisah healing art. So go ahead can I teach you humanity go ahead. So therefore I change it one is writing like this. So normally for example as normally DA is a greatest normally dark thriller i is i and you know English A to Z are Chinese hags horizontal vertical live side by side dots are hook. So 16 components are to form our words. So therefore one is right he's like this. That See. See my life. I never stopped my law. Right? This call one is waiting for the this is why this wait him is Kevin. power but the key is I connect with the source they choose me as a servant so therefore not why why would any calligraphy I connect that great is love I connect the source are the we can see the power Canarsie taken me no time than you know that within three we have a lawyer a lawyer breast cancer come to liver 80% covered by cancer it was really awful I hope police case she went to all the major the top oncologists ironically we feel she just tracing because this invisible invisible light here like a day with a martyr and lost $100 million on trees this one or hundreds made millions because why because the the field the source feel your scientific way order connection harmony create a good result these order disharmony this disconnect him cause trouble so therefore this is the field to take a while to do this I agree Sir everybody knows sang shy we all did a song we feel warm but the song is in existence the word the star galaxies but the source is source of creative heaven earth the source is even invisible but the use of what you may not feel hot and warm but the invisible powers of creator power we seen therefore people connect we have 600 cases for chronic life threatening condition with a medical data on Bureau board result now for us for example now, US data now 40% Idols has a depression anxiety 25% I don't take a prescription medicine. See I put this one on the book. I'm putting on a heart okay heal me connect with the art okay, this invisible field heal me heal me think about this art it's a field sure was focusing on so therefore I put some people's hard to believe really hard to believe but one day it will grow people said whoa master Shah has a calligraphy are the book everybody can afford a book Brandon Handley 37:27 What's interesting to me is is growing up I've watched quite a bit of anime right our Japanese cartoons or you know some type of derivative and one or even like watch plenty of movies and one of the things that kind of always took up stood out in my mind was they would take a piece of paper in these movies you know rice and calligraphy and pass it out like a spell and that's basically I mean is that kind of what you're doing here right you're like yeah, you're you're putting the power on here for the connection right you're creating this link to source for people to connect with Master Sha 38:02 Yeah, that's exactly what correct and I connect with the source and the source Love Light the frequency vibration is the invisible the most positively information energy made within we have negative information energy matters for pain inflammation tumor relationship financial challenges, why we connect with this invisible light to take a light coming watch the darkness this in a studio you switch off dark morning light as the sound light up dark night so this invisible light more than this light more than the Sun is the invisible source because source created Heaven earth so therefore this hard to believe but because we have so many miracles, it's hard to believe but more and more people start to open all not only for healing cancer, chronic pain and also we did a research psychologist Ray the resolver for depression anxiety, David Ammar to get a huge financial place. Now the Queen levels get a place also now people start be aware massage as if creating new technology. Use our Connect Tracy, you heal heal me. You heal. I can do two minutes to swim. It's a healing. Give me a time. Let me hold my book. Everybody I can do healing for two or three minutes. Okay, well you already do I can do two minutes. Brandon Handley 39:29 Sure. We can do that now.

You know our house related with negative information energy, major finances, same thing, relationship divorce, cannot find a true love cannot get a pregnant everything. My teaching in my book now The first chapter universal law, very important wisdom, my whole life study, only learn three words share the second word called cheat, everybody no cheat, vital energy life force. Next, why is a kill? Kill is a tune with the metro, Metro, do a metro. So therefore, see beloved Einstein, E equals MC squared, this is energy E here Metro speed of light. So I started relativities do not have this shared, shared means to So, here's the spirit, heart, a heart, heart and the mind. So in quantum physics, information, all information or message, so information may see dollar signs or Dr. Rowley and I have quantum faces we created 1000s. And millions of people believes soul spirit, meaning people believe here, they are the same thing. And this is what we try to share with humanity. In our summit with Deepak Chopra with Ervin Laszlo people talk about classic consciousness Newton and Einstein relativity is consciousness. Quantum physics, we teach it Tao, consciousness. Tao consciousness is no thought human we saw there's no words I'm putting this so there is no sound hire system no thinking hires the thinking the highest power is with this source. So there are four top click we see Tao some Tao water and people who the Water Economy transmission I put the invisible power instead of people drinking Mira got miracle I'm just a vase. So choosing serving the higher dimension power goes through me offered to the Dow Santa Clarita water that's a miracle happen again again. Brandon Handley 47:03 Now when you say no thought What's that feel like? So how does somebody know that they're experiencing no thought? Okay, thank Master Sha 47:15 you so much. So in a Buddhist teaching Tao teaching even the people for millions people meditation, human brain is a designer for thinking number one, we have to think we have to think for the people may not know in a deep meditation you can spatial mantra you cannot try to force you know assault you will get a mental disorder and be very sure you're very happy happy very happy we have a song by the way you meditate while you can the mantra spatial mantra can I was higher dimension while you turn 10 Can human assault laser laser laser Zion while reach a high level you complete like nothing thinking the white light there's a higher level so therefore in the end, I just gave a beginning step for the higher Rama first is a chilled him this is your meditative chill. Chill is a clean lie the pure peace chill tune to kill me as of quietness. And the next one while you're trying to mind try meditation. The second stillness deal deal means the stillness. What's the deal? Thing is no salt while you meditate the more finely whoo Yep, totally quiet your mind because your hardest key hard house is the minor so this of course is a training and techniques champion. When you reach a state your mind totally stopped thinking but at that moment you can actually source that's a car steel. Brandon Handley 48:58 And and that's how you know I think I'm trying to take a car Carl Jung coined a term called like the numinous right feeling feeling connection, overwhelming source of connection to Source is that kind of what would you would explain it as I will Master Sha 49:16 see, no source because remember, no source is no human source. But the in the fourth dimension fifth dimension, the Buddha saints they have activity also. So why you have no humans are suddenly you saw wow the Buddha's gallery you saw oh my god the millions of people county that is in the days and police work they do have phenomenal also but another third dimensions. Anyway, this is this is very deep is hard to explain in the show that you have to get a premium. Brandon Handley 49:57 I get it you also something else to the really appreciate It never thought and then I guess I've been trying to come to a way of figuring this out and you explained it very well. But I'll leave it like this. So let's say the healing works. The song works. I've tasted the pair. It's sweet. All right. You say to be delighted, not surprised, as a reaction. Right? Could you explain that? Because I think that um, when we connect with source when some miracle happens, yes, we act surprised. Right? Yeah. What why? That's amazing. And so why do you suggest to be delighted and not surprised? I'm curious. Unknown Speaker 50:41 Uh, yet this like this. Master Sha 50:43 One is the stage for cancer, liver cancer. 80% of brain cancer, leukemia. I have quite a few serious leukemia. They all recover. Very surprising. It's called Miracle hopeful, hopeless. For the for us a third damaged miracle. For them a source of No more No more sense of frequency vibration. We have a blockage, the light coming in. Wow. washed out like why we take shower the carwash and take shower we wash the third but these tog Kruger you see the field not a washer skin, carwash it's a skin there's a washer internal our guys Whoa, holidays from skin to boom, wash the stuff out. That is sacred healing SOURCE LIGHT, calligraphy carry a light see behind me, there's a Dow, I'm standing here, every moment a source LiDAR, Flash me flash a flash wash. So therefore dices connect with the source, we all can connect it. So therefore, you know I have so many free events, join with me experienced more. Brandon Handley 51:52 Well, Dr. Shah, where should we send people to find out more about what it is that you're doing and what is next for you. Master Sha 51:59 Next for me, is I want to meet some people experience or more experience that I love my heart so I love all humanity. John harness social together. Love Peace and Harmony, love his harmony. I want the millions of people understand I have the power to heal my serve. You had power to your serve. Together we have the power to heal the word. See the COVID and then King war, all kinds of crises of political, economic health, all kinds of challenges. Humanity needs to transform the heart, hard horse's mind so you know why the sentence humanity needs to purify our heart, heart, connect with a higher dimension where you connect with the heart. You'll forget about human stops, let it go. Human stuff will block you connect with higher dimension. Connect with the source. There are unlimited wisdom on limits. The words are limited success. That is my final closing. Brandon Handley 53:05 That's it's a wonderful, wonderful next step. So thank you so much again, Mr. Shaw and one more time where can people find more about you?

John Vervaeke joins Bruce Alderman and Layman Pascal to explore possible points of contact and confluence between their respective approaches to religion and spirituality. For this inaugural episode, we feel into some of the commonalities and differences between Integral Postmetaphysical Spirituality and Integral Life Practice, and John's "religion that is not a religion" and his work around developing an ecology of practices suitable for addressing the meaning crisis. We touch on a number of related themes: - the creative deployment of mythic or literary figures, from Cthulhu and zombies, to the Centaur, the Minotaur, and the khora - the importance of wrestling with existential and epistemological limit conditions - the role of ambiguity in higher forms of rationality - the relation of non-theism to classical theism and atheism - the history of integrative practices - the 'traps' in conventional practice that can thwart balanced development ...and much more. John Vervaeke is a professor of psychology at Toronto University and creator of the popular YouTube series "Awakening from the Meaning Crisis."

In Re/thinking Religion, a new Integral Stage series, John Vervaeke joins Bruce Alderman and Layman Pascal to explore possible points of contact and confluence between their respective approaches to religion and spirituality. For the second episode, we discuss the distinction between absolute and relative in traditional and modern metaphysics, the Two Worlds mythology, and the Ascender and Descender paths, and we consider some historical and contemporary approaches to reconceiving their relations. In the second half of the dialogue, we turn towards the emotional or 'felt' dimensions of a fundamental shift in perspectives, including David Michael Levin's notions of 'crying for a vision' and gelassenheit as the resolution of dualism; and we begin to touch on the importance for a Religion that is Not a Religion of 'moving into the lack' and fully grieving the death of God.

Daniel arbeitet seit Ende 2021 als Coach für Bewegungslehre und Selbstmanagement. Anlass für seinen Weg waren seine eigenen Erfahrungen mit einer hartnäckigen Fatigue, die ihn als junger Mann Anfang 20 für gute anderthalb Jahre intensiv begleitet haben. Daniel nutzte die Zeit um sich intensiv mit sich selbst zu beschäftigen, viele Dinge auszuprobieren und am Ende seinen neuen Weg zu finden, der ihn wieder zurück in ein aktives und deutlich bewussteres Leben geführt hat. Hier geht's zum Blogartikel: ms-perspektive.de/interview-mit-daniel-peters-coach-fur-bewegungslehre-und-selbstmanagement/ Vorstellung Daniel Peters ist 25 Jahre alt, stammt aus Norddeutschland und hat einen Abschluss in Verfahrenstechnik. Er ist Autodidakt, selbstständiger Coach für Bewegungspraxis und Soft Skills/Persönlichkeitsentwicklung. Motivation zu daniels project Wie sah Dein Leben vor 5 Jahren aus? Vor ca. fünf Jahren befand ich mitten in meinem dualen Studium Verfahrenstechnik und habe neben meinen universitären und beruflichen Pflichten viel Calisthenics (Training mit dem eigenen Körpergewicht) betrieben und bin, wie viele andere Studenten auch, am Wochenende gerne gefeiert und Alkohol getrunken. Welches Ereignis hat alles über den Haufen geworfen? Im Wintersemester 2018 bin ich ins Auslandssemester nach Schottland gegangen. Dort habe ich mich anfangs erkältet, habe diesen kleinen Infekt jedoch ignoriert und weiter mein Training durchgezogen. Nach einigen Wochen ohne Besserung habe ich mir dann eine Grippe eingefangen, die ich dann weiter durch Partys und Training verschleppt habe. Davon habe ich mich nicht wieder richtig erholen können und hatte anschließend über mehrere Monate mit Symptomen einer chronischen Müdigkeit zu kämpfen. Wie hat sich die chronische Müdigkeit bei Dir geäußert und auf welche Art hat sie Dein Leben beeinflusst? Ich war dauerhaft erschöpft, konnte nicht mehr mit dem Fahrrad zur Uni fahren, hatte Probleme beim Treppensteigen und war extrem empfindlich gegenüber Umwelteinflüssen wie Lärm, Gerüchen sowie Kälte und Wärme. Größere soziale Zusammenkünfte haben mich total überfordert und trotz neun bis zwölf Stunden Schlaf war ich am nächsten Tag nicht erholt. Meditation, Zeit mit mir selber zu verbringen und Zeit in der Natur haben mir gutgetan. Einen Film zu schauen oder am Handy zu sein waren eher Dinge, die für mich anstrengend waren. Was hat Dir geholfen, wieder rauszukommen und wieder mehr Energie zu haben? Zunächst einmal gegenüber mir selbst ehrlich zu sein. Den gegenwärtigen Zustand zu akzeptieren und diesen anschließend zu hinterfragen. Dadurch habe ich mich viel mit mir selber beschäftigt und meinen Alltag komplett umgestellt. Aus sämtlichen Aktivitäten habe ich mich zunächst zurückgezogen und daraufhin nach Wegen gesucht, mehr Kraft und Energie im Alltag zu haben. Häufig hat mir kaltes Duschen geholfen, Meditation, schriftliche Selbstreflexion und eine gewisse (Neu)- Findung durch andere, für mich zuvor uninteressante Aktivitäten (Sprachen lernen, Gitarre spielen, Besuch von Vorträgen zu Themen unterschiedlichster Art). Am meisten hat mir jedoch das Buchinger Heilfasten geholfen, eine Fastenphase von sieben Tagen und eine Phase von 14 Tagen. Danach ging es langsam wieder bergauf. Für die nächsten anderthalb Jahre habe ich mich vegan ernährt, mit vielen verschiedenen Ernährungsweisen gespielt, auf Alkohol verzichtet und Zeit mit Freunden und mir selber qualitativ hochwertiger gestaltet (mehr Zeit an der frischen Luft, gute Gespräche, ehrliche Verbindungen, etc.). Wann entstand die Idee zu daniels project und hast Du gleich gewusst, dass Du Dich damit selbstständig machen möchtest? Im August 2020 nach einem Trainingscamp bei meinem Freund und Lehrer Jonathan Schmid hatte ich ein Gespräch mit einer guten Freundin und hatte eine Art Erleuchtung, dass ich in meinem Leben etwas anderes machen möchte als das, was ich zu der Zeit getan habe. Die Idee von daniel's project hat sich dann erst im Januar 2021 mit dem Bau der eigenen Website langsam entwickelt und entwickelt sich noch immer. Die Idee von daniel's project muss aber dennoch in Linie mit meiner eigenen Philosophie sein. Ist die chronische Müdigkeit bei Dir vollständig weg oder zeigt sie sich immer noch ab und an? Diese zeigt sich nur noch in Zeiten von viel Stress/Arbeit/Training, etc.. Da ich aber mich mit der Zeit sehr gut kennengelernt habe, kommt dies kaum noch vor. Ich weiß heute meine Stressoren ganz gut einzuschätzen und daher auch, wie ich dementsprechend meinen Alltag zu gestalten habe. Hat die Corona-Pandemie auch eine Rolle bei Deiner Entscheidung für daniel's project gespielt? Definitiv! Ich kann mich glücklich schätzen, dass mir die Auswirkungen der Pandemie (fast) keine Probleme bereit haben. Keinerlei ernsthafte Erkrankungen in der Familie oder im Bekannten- und Freundeskreis, keine Ängste vor Jobverlust, sichere Wohnsituation mit tollen Mitbewohnern. Der Park Planten un Blomen war vor der Tür, mein Teilzeitjob hat mir viel freie Zeit für Training & zum Nachdenken gegeben und das Wetter war wirklich klasse im Frühjahr und Sommer 2020. So konnte mich auf meine eigene Art & Weise entwickeln und zudem ein gewisses Maß an Selbstbewusstsein aneignen, um meine eigenen Projekte voranzubringen. Interessante Angebote für MS-Patienten bei daniels project Was muss man sich unter Floor Work vorstellen und für wen ist diese Art der Bewegung geeignet? Floor Work, also im Deutschen Bodenarbeit, sind einfach gesagt nur Bewegungen am Boden. Der Ursprung kommt m.W.n. aus dem Modernen Tanz und ist auch darüber ziemlich populär geworden. Auch im Breakdance kennt man ja verschiedene Bewegungen am Boden. In der Bewegungslehre nutzen wir Elemente aus diesen Bereichen, um uns am Boden zu bewegen. Der Boden ist wie ein Partner, der konstant Feedback gibt. Der größte Mehrwert von Floor Work besteht m.E. darin, dass man lernen muss, Entspannung zu finden. Diese Art von Bewegung ist für alle Menschen geeignet. Jeder kann einfach mal probieren sich auf den Rücken zu legen und versuchen die Beine zu bewegen, ohne mit den Fußballen/den Füßen den Boden zu verlassen. Hier gibt es unzählige Möglichkeiten und Varianten sich über den Boden zu bewegen. Das Ganze kann man natürlich noch beliebig erweitern und es macht superviel Spaß. Du hast auch eine Commovity gegründet, eine Gemeinschaft, um zusammen Bewegungssport auszuführen. Was verbirgt sich genau dahinter? Genau, gewissermaßen kann man nicht gemeinsam sich bewegen, da es sich um eine Online Community handelt. Im Bewegungsbereich aus dem ich komme, findet das Training häufig alleine statt, es ist keine Teamsportart wie z.B. Fußball. Ich habe aber einen großen Teil meines Lebens Fußball gespielt und das immer sehr genossen. Nicht nur den Sport gemeinsam auszuführen, sondern viel mehr noch der Austausch untereinander. The ComMOVEity ist eine Onlineplattform, auf der man sich für relativ wenig Geld (15-20€/Monat) zu verschiedenen Themen weiterbilden kann (Parkour, Handstand, Akrobatik, Floor Work & Tanz, Krafttraining, Meditation, etc.) und sich darüber hinaus mit anderen Menschen auf der Welt austauschen kann. Können Menschen mit gewissen körperlichen Einschränkungen ebenfalls von den Bewegungsangeboten bei Dir profitieren? Aber klar. Auf meiner Website habe ich einen Onlinekurs „Bewegung für Alle“, der sich an Menschen richtet, die sich in ihrem Alltag etwas mehr bewegen möchten. Bewegung für alle ist zwar ein ziemlich weit gefasster Begriff, doch mir war es wichtig, die Bewegungen so aufzubauen, dass sie für möglichst viele Menschen durchführbar sind. Sei es für jemanden, der viel im Büro sitzt und Rückenschmerzen vorbeugen möchte oder für Bewegungsinteressierte, die nach neuen Ideen und Perspektiven suchen. Der Onlinekurs umfasst drei verschiedene Bewegungseinheiten, die ca. 20-40 Minuten dauern. Jeder kann die Dauer und die Schwierigkeitsstufe selbst bestimmen. Zusätzlich habe ich noch etwas Theorie zu Bewegung eingebaut sowie ein paar Übungen und Meditationen zur Entspannung. Ich versuche mich immer in die Lage eines potentiellen Kunden hineinzusetzen und in diesem Fall habe ich einfach meine Eltern genommen, die beide Mitte 50 sind und einem 40h/Woche Job nachgehen, in dem sie sich nicht viel bewegen. Mein Ziel war es, ihnen Bewegung etwas näher zu bringen und dazu anzuregen, davon mehr in den Alltag einzubauen. Dennoch bin ich über Feedback immer sehr dankbar. Du hast auch einen Kurs zur bewussten Auseinandersetzung mit sich selbst, den eigenen Routinen und Ist-Soll-Abgleich. Für wen eignet sich der Kurs und was lernt man dabei? Genau genommen ist es kein Kurs, sondern ein 15-seitiges Dokument, in dem ich verschiedene Wege von schriftlicher Selbst-Reflexion vorstelle. Eine Methode, nämlich das Habit Tracking (also zu Deutsch das Tracken von Gewohnheiten) hat mir während meiner Erschöpfungsphase viel geholfen und das mache ich bis heute noch. Ich selbst bin ein großer Fan von solchen Praktiken. Es geht hier nicht um das klassische Tagebuch schreiben, sondern um Methoden, die eigenen Gedankenprozesse zu verstehen und in das innere Selbst zu blicken. In den Spiegel schauen wir mehrmals pro Tag und es fällt uns sofort auf, wenn etwas äußerlich nicht zu dem passt, wie wir uns das vorstellen. Ein externes Feedback zu erhalten ist demnach relativ leicht, doch ein internes Feedback zu erhalten eben nicht. Da muss man schon etwas genauer nachforschen, aber es lohnt sich. Know thyself (Kenne dich selbst) ist etwas, das noch aus dem alten Griechenland stammt und sich etwas platt anhören kann, doch für mich, die Hörer und alle anderen unglaublich wichtig sein sollte. Mit Kenne dich selbst ist nicht der Aufbau eines Selbst gemeint, sondern die Bedienungsanleitung. Wie funktioniere ich eigentlich? Was kann ich und was kann ich nicht? Solche zu Fragen sich erstmal zu stellen und dann auch noch zu beantworten, kann von ziemlich hohen Wert sein. Das fördert die eigene Akzeptanz und und eine ehrliche Lebensweise. Was würdest Du jemandem raten, der gern mal reinschnuppern möchte, ob es ein passendes Angebot gibt? Einfach mal auf meiner Website nachschauen, die ist ziemlich übersichtlich Gestaltet. Ansonsten freue ich mich immer über E-Mails oder sonstige Nachrichten mit Vorschlägen oder Fragen. Das hilft mir auch ungemein dabei, neue Angebote zu kreieren. So weiß ich immer, was von anderen eigentlich gewünscht wird. Ich kann hier im Podcast so viel erzählen, wie ich möchte, letztendlich kann ich nur versuchen, zu erahnen, was von den Hörern da draußen gewünscht wird. Also gerne mit mir in Kontakt treten, das hilft bestimmt. Tipps Was war dein tiefster Tiefpunkt mit der chronischen Fatigue und wie hast du dich wieder empor gekämpft? Tiefpunkte hatte ich viele, jedoch ist mir ein Erlebnis besonders im Gedächtnis geblieben. Das war Ende Oktober 2018 im Stadion in Glasgow, als ich Celtic Glasgow gegen Red Bull Leipzig mit Freunden geschaut habe. Die Atmosphäre war phänomenal, ich war aber einfach nur fertig und wollte da weg – es war schrecklich. Dies war ein markanter Punkt in meiner Vergangenheit, an dem ich wusste, dass ich etwas ändern muss. Was machst du, wenn du Symptome der chronischen Fatigue verspürst? Slow down… Alles etwas langsamer und entspannter angehen. Mich reflektieren und versuchen herauszufinden, was die Ursache/Ursachen dafür sein könnte/n. Ehrlich zu mir sein und wenn nötig, in den kommenden Tagen nur Dinge zu tun, die mir guttun. Nicht nur ehrlich zu mir selbst zu sein, sondern auch zu den Menschen in meinem Umfeld. Sie darüber aufzuklären, wie es mir gerade geht – dies stößt dann immer auf Akzeptanz und Empathie. Wünsche und Ziele Hast Du einen großen unerfüllten Wunsch? Tatsächlich nicht. Welche Entwicklung wünschst du Dir im Bereich der Bewegungslehre? Weniger Arroganz. Viele Menschen im Bereich der Bewegungslehre sind der Meinung, dass sie die EINE Wahrheit gefunden haben und projizieren dies auf Alle anderen. Die einzige Wahrheit da draußen ist die, die wir für uns selber entdeckt haben. Ich denke, dass jeder für sich seinen Weg finden muss und wenn jemand anderes meinen Weg genauso als seinen Weg betrachtet, dann ist das schön. Dennoch ist dies eher die Ausnahme als die Regel und man sollte die Bewegungslehre dazu nutzen, eher die Leitplanke darzustellen als den Weg. Bewegung hat einen unglaublichen Mehrwert, aber für jeden auf eine andere Art und Weise. Blitzlicht-Runde Was war der beste Ratschlag, den du jemals erhalten hast? Schwierig zu beantworten. Meiner Meinung nach gibt es auch kein „bestes“ Buch, das ich jemals gelesen habe. Wer krank ist und ein Buch über Heilung liest, wird dies wahrscheinlich als das beste Buch empfinden. Von daher (die letzten Dezemberwochen waren für mich persönlich sehr bescheiden) der Ratschlag einer guten Freundin: Es ist okay. Es ist okay, eine schlechte Phase zu haben. Es ist okay, Probleme zu haben. Das hat mir wirklich geholfen. Wie lautet dein aktuelles Lebensmotto? Vorwärts leben, rückwärts verstehen. Mit welcher Person würdest du gern einmal ein Kamingespräch führen und zu welchem Thema? Mit John Vervaeke, ein Professor der Toronto University über den Sinn des Lebens. Welches Buch oder Hörbuch, das du kürzlich gelesen hast, kannst du uns empfehlen und worum geht es darin? Und Nietzsche weinte von Irvin D. Yalom: Fiktive Handlung zwischen dem Arzt Josef Breuer und dem Philosophen Friedrich Nietzsche, der unbewusst von Breuer therapiert werden soll. Nietzsche konfrontiert Breuer dann über die Zeit mit seiner philosophischen Wahrheit und das Blatt wendet sich… Verabschiedung Hast du einen Tipp, den du deinem jüngeren Ich geben würdest, für den Zeitpunkt als die chronische Fatigue Dich gerade voll aus dem Leben geworfen hat? Tatsächlich nicht. Ich habe superviel in der Zeit gelernt und hätte eher meinem jüngeren Ich vor dem Zusammenbruch ein paar Tipps mit auf den Weg gegeben. Ansonsten würden wir wahrscheinlich heute nicht hier sitzen. Wer weiß das schon… Möchtest du den Hörerinnen und Hörern noch etwas mit auf dem Weg geben? Respekt und Anerkennung. Ich gehe mal davon, dass jeder, der das hier hört sich mehr oder weniger mit seiner Krankheit auseinandersetzt. Das finde ich klasse. Sich mit der Krankheit auseinanderzusetzen heißt auch, sich mit sich selbst auseinanderzusetzen. Damit ist jeder Hörer hier wahrscheinlich schon vielen Menschen da draußen ein Schritt voraus. Wo findet man dich im Internet? Meine Website lautet www.danielsproject.com, auf Instagram heiße ich daniels.project und auf LinkedIN Daniel Peters – die Social Links lassen sich aber auch auf meiner Website finden.   Vielen Dank Daniel für Deine Zeit, das Teilen Deiner Erfahrungen mit der Fatigue und den Anstoß zu mehr Bewegung und Selbstreflexion. Ich wünsche Dir maximale Erfolge, damit Du vielen Menschen helfen kannst, bewusster, glücklicher und körperlich aktiver zu werden.   Bis bald und mach das beste aus Deinem Leben, Nele Mehr Informationen und positive Gedanken erhältst Du in meinem kostenlosen Newsletter.

In Re/thinking Religion, a new Integral Stage series, John Vervaeke joins Bruce Alderman & Layman Pascal to explore possible points of contact and confluence between their respective approaches to religion and spirituality. For this inaugural episode, we feel into some of the commonalities and differences between Integral Postmetaphysical Spirituality and Integral Transformative Practice, and John's "religion that is not a religion" and his work around developing an ecology of practices suitable for addressing the meaning crisis. We touch on a number of related themes: the creative deployment of mythic or literary figures, from Cthulhu and zombies, to the Centaur, the Minotaur, and the khora; the importance of wrestling with existential and epistemological limit conditions, and the role of ambiguity in higher forms of rationality; the relation of non-theism to classical theism and atheism; the history of integrative practices, and the 'traps' in conventional practice that can thwart balanced development; and much more. J ohn Vervaeke is a professor of psychology at Toronto University and creator of the popular YouTube series "Awakening from the Meaning Crisis."

Why are we still obsessed with The Beatles, and is it healthy? Fifty years after they broke up, it seems that the mark they made on our culture has not faded. Does this demonstrate the timeless genius of the band, or is it a sign of a culture that is stuck? A few days ago saw the release of an eight hour fly-on-the-wall documentary 'Get Back', made by Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson. It shows some of their last sessions as they put together the album 'Let it Be', and culminated in their famous rooftop concert. Erik Davis is the foremost historian of the counterculture, and Anderson Todd works in the Wisdom and Consciousness Lab at Toronto University. In this epic conversational riff they examine what was captured in The Beatles' music and why it resonates today. This conversation was recorded in the Rebel Wisdom Digital Campfire.

Matt Regan is the President of Wealthcare Capital Management, a tech-enabled RIA helping financial advisors maximize the value of their practices.  By developing strategies that create personalized and compelling client experiences, Matt and his team empower advisors to become intentional about the service they deliver. Matt has over two decades of experience in the financial services industry, having served as COO of Wescott Financial Advisory Group, a strategic and operational consultant for Splendid Splinter, and the Co-Founder and Managing Partner for WR Hambrecht + Co. He earned his Bachelor's degree in History from the University of Toronto - University of St. Michael's College and his Master's degree in History from Villanova University. Matt currently resides in Philadelphia, PA with his wife and three children.   Matt joins me today to share his journey from teaching school-age special needs children to starting his career in financial services — and how learning to listen and admitting he doesn't have all the answers has helped him become successful. We discuss what goals-based planning is and why listening and asking questions is at the heart of a successful holistic, goals-based plan. Matt explains how goals-based planning is different from other financial planning strategies and why market performance is less important than your likelihood of achieving your goals. We discuss how Matt's company grew by over 33% in assets over the last 13 months, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, and how the pandemic has impacted the financial advisory industry as a whole. We also discuss the importance of creating a great client service model, how to build your independent practice to scale, and why financial planners and advisors need to create a practice with a standardized approach to succession.   “Advisors have come to the conclusion that the value that they provide isn't in talking about things like standard deviation and market returns. It's in holistic, goals-based planning, and that's all about listening and admitting that you don't have all the answers.” - Matt Regan   This week on The Model FA Podcast:   Matt's career journey from teaching special needs students to working in the financial services industry How Wealthcare Capital Management helps financial advisors maximize the value of their practice The impact of actively listening to your clients and asking questions Why listening to your clients and admitting you don't have all the answers is the heart of holistic, goals-based planning How goals-based financial planning differs from financial planning strategies Why market performance is irrelevant for goals-based financial planning How Matt's company acquired over $1 billion in assets over the last 13 months, despite the economic downturn due to COVID-19 How the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the financial advisory industry Why now is the time to ask your clients for referrals Why Matt is so passionate about helping independent financial advisors Creating true enterprise value on your independent practice Understanding what a great client service model is and why it's important The benefits of specializing your financial advisory services and how to do it Why Matt believes less than 20% of financial advisors actually have a succession plan of their own in place, and why it's vital to create one   Resources Mentioned:   Midnight's Children: A Novel (Modern Library 100 Best Novels) by Salman Rushdie Conversations: How to Manage Your Business Relationships One Conversation at a Time by Ivan Farber S4 EP04 (Part 1) | The Art and Skill of Conversation: The Blueprint for Memorable Conversations S4 Ep05 | The Art and Skill of Conversation (Part 2): Asking the Right Questions to Understand Your Prospective Client's Needs   Our Favorite Quotes:   “If part of your mission as a firm is to serve clients and help them get to their goals, well, realistically, you can't serve the hundreds of millions of people in this country on your own. So if you develop something that can empower other folks to be innovative as well, it's part of perpetuating that mission.” - David DeCelle “Market performance is irrelevant. It's how you're doing with regards to the likelihood of you achieving the goals that matter to you and your plan.” - Matt Regan “Whether you're working with advisors or you're working with individual investors, they're all people. If they feel like they are heard and that you're approaching them with exactly what they were asking for,  there's no real ‘selling' that's going on. It's more filling a particular need that you help them identify.” - David DeCelle   Connect with Matt Regan:   Wealthcare Capital Management Email: mregan@wealthcarecapital.com Wealthcare Capital Management on LinkedIn Wealthcare Capital Management on Facebook Wealthcare Capital Management on Twitter Matt Regan on LinkedIn     About the Model FA Podcast   The Model FA podcast is a show for fiduciary financial advisors.

Neste episódio do Historicidade, o programa de entrevistas do Fronteiras no Tempo, conversamos com o Professor Doutor Deivy Ferreira Carneiro (UFU), sobre as ofensas verbais e os conflitos na História. O ato de ofender alguém com palavras ou xingamentos sempre esteve presente na atuação da justiça criminal, e hoje, por meio dos documentos produzidos na repressão a esses crimes, podemos entender o que significava esta ação, os conflitos que desencadeava e, ainda, vários outros aspectos da história cotidiana das sociedades passadas. Nesta entrevista: Entenda como o historiador trabalha com as fontes da justiça criminal e quais são os caminhos para compreender os conflitos e ofensas verbais naqueles documentos. Conheça os tipos de xingamentos estudados e porque alguns ofendiam mais do que outros. Surpreenda-se com a relevância que um ataque verbal poderia ter no início e/ou no desenrolar de um conflito e, ainda, saiba por que se fazia questão de que fossem punidos os que cometiam este delito. Por fim, reflita conosco sobre o papel da justiça criminal no contexto social e político brasileiro do século XIX e XX e em como a atuação dos seus agentes, em interação com a sociedade, ajudaram a conformar formas de comportamentos e valores.

In this episode, Kiegan Irish and Alex Boos revisit and contemplate historical moments and trajectories that trace out certain facets of the encounter between Europeans and Indigenous peoples on Turtle Island. Taking a dual historical approach that blends Linda Tuhiwai Smith's decolonial methodology of Indigenizing discourse with a historical materialist analysis borrowed from Marxism, we consider some of the effects of the colonial dynamics of the European-Indigenous fur trade on both Indigenous and European societies and examine the structure and evolution of specific French trading companies to pinpoint their roles both as vanguards of European economic trading practices and as founding components to the Canadian settler colonial state. These accounts are followed by a look at the Treaty of Niagara and the Royal Proclamation of 1763, two significant historical events and documents that, had their principles been respected, could have changed the course of history in Indigenous-settler political relations.

Introduction: Covid-19 struck like a thunderbolt and has thrown the world upside down. Many are still reeling as we grapple to right side for a new order. All of us have been forced to wake to a new reality, to pause and immediately assume a virtual reality for most of the population. Teams have been beset too. I noticed my immediate reaction was to want to support. I got into a frenetic productivity race with myself to convert my programs to be available online, to support teams think and be virtually minded, to reach out to my many clients to offer help. I was simultaneously feeling the underbelly of anxiety of worry. Would my small business survive? I only stopped when I read a very compelling article in the Chronicle of Higher Education written by Aisha Ahmed, an assistant professor at Toronto University. On reading I exhaled. I realised I too has succumbed to a  maladaptive response of delusion and denial to the enormous change I was battling. I stopped my frenetic productivity goals and stepped back. Instead I chose to do something I knew I could and decided to put out a series of podcasts dedicated to teams going through this unimaginable period of change. Podcast episode summary: This introduction episode is my introduction to a special series of podcasts for a limited period to support teams through Covid-19. I intend to interview 18 guests I have already interviewed on the Game of Teams Podcast but this time they will gather in a panel format. I will host 6 conversations to be published over six weeks starting on the 1st of May. I will interview 3 guests to comprise my panel. I intend to follow the schema introduced to me by Aisha in her article.  The six episodes will be chunked down into 3 segments.    EP1 will speak to  our current situation and the challenges teams are facing through Covid-19. I intend to interview Dr Krister Lowe, Dr Melissa Hughes and Alexander Caillet as my guests for this episode.  EP2 will speak to the emotional overwhelm & communication issues we as humans have and continue to experience by virtue of Covid-19 and what this means for teams. In this episode I will interview Dan Newby, Dr Paul Lawrence and Sue McDonnell EP3: This episode will discuss the mental models or mindsets teams need to adopt to thrive. I will interview Fin Gould, Dr Sari Van Poelje and Jennifer Britton.  EP4: As we shift to accept our new normal what are some of the Leadership challenges this crisis poses and how can adapt or practice for difference? I will interview Dr Ruth Wageman, Dr Simon Western and Connor Brennan  EP5 will consider how we begin to embrace our new condition. What does this mean for teams and Leaders? How will business respond? In this episode I will talk to John Baldoni, Richard Boston and John McCusker EP6: Bringing it all together. What is the one team response? How do we embrace our new normal? What is the opportunity exactly and how can teams move forward?    Points made through the episode:  It is normal to feel so discombobulated. This is a seismic shift.  We are moving on the change curve of a magnitude many of us have never experienced.  Aisha Ashmad helped me stop and catch myself succumbing to the seduction of productivity as an antidote to denial and delusion. We are going to go through 3 stages which requires of us to 1. Find Security, 2. Find new mental models and 3. Embrace the opportunity for creativity & innovation that this change provides  The six panel interviews are my offer to the world vis a vie teams and Covid-19    Resources: the following include the resources I alluded to in this episode.  “Why you should ignore all that Coronavirus inspired productivity pressure” Aisha Ahmad, Associate Professor Toronto University -The Chronicle of Higher Education March 27th 2020 

Monica Heller est professeure en anthropologie linguistique à l'Université de Toronto (Canada). Émilie Urbain est professeure adjointe de linguistique au département de français de l'Université Carleton. Elles sont bilingues (français/anglais). Elles ont grandi et travaillent dans des zones périphériques des marchés linguistiques dominants de production du savoir anthropologique que sont les États-Unis et la France (le Canada francophone – aussi bien le Québec que l'Ontario et l'Acadie; la Belgique, la Louisiane). Leur discipline est périphérique et floue: l'anthropologie linguistique n'existe qu'en Amérique de Nord, dans un rapport difficile avec l'anthropologie socioculturelle. Ailleurs ça s'appelle la sociolinguistique; complètement évacuée de l'anthropologie, elle existe dans un rapport difficile avec les sciences du langage. Leur conversation examine les différents aspects de ce point de vue des marges. Every so often, The Familiar Strange will bring you bonus episodes in languages other than English. In today's episode, Monica Heller, professor of linguistic anthropology at the University of Toronto, and Émilie Urbain, assistant professor of French at Carleton University, discuss the work of building knowledge across national, linguistic, and disciplinary boundaries.
