Ep# 26 Lawrence Edwards, PhD – World Renowned Kundalini Expert, Author, and Mystic.

Saison 2 · Épisode 26

vendredi 4 septembre 2020 • Durée 02:08:41

Our guest today is highly respected Kundalini expert and researcher Lawrence Edwards. His life long passion to know that Truth of the inner life brings a deeply steeped background in science to a profound inner mystical experience. He chronicles the awakening, unfoldment, and integration of the underlying power of the Universe, the Kundalini Shakti, in his most recent book, Awakening Kundalini – The Path to Radical Freedom. A book I highly recommend for those serious about understanding Kundalini and the subtle process of Kundalini Sadhana. He has narrated an audio presentation of the same name with guided practices and lectures that summarize a lifetime of study and experience.

He is the founder and director of Anam Cara, Inc., a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to teaching meditative practices from a variety of traditions. Dr. Edwards has taught at universities, hospitals, corporations, professional meetings, prisons, hospice programs, and yoga and meditation centers in the US, Canada, and India. He has been on the faculty of New York Medical College since 1998.

Dr. Edwards is a board-certified neurotherapist, and a licensed psychotherapist. For the last 45 years, he has developed unique insights that bridge scientific and mystical domains through direct knowledge. This growing direct awareness informs and enlightens every aspect of his life. The understanding and insights that have been revealed to him in this ever-deepening process of Self Realization are what he shares with us in this remarkable conversation.

Ep# 25 Lee Lyon – World Renowned Meditation Teacher and Author of One of the Most Ancient and Esoteric Tantras Specifically for Westerners.

Saison 2 · Épisode 25

mercredi 8 juillet 2020 • Durée 02:16:54

Our guest today is Lee Lyon, world-renowned meditation teacher and author/translator of the recently released, The 112 Meditations from the Book of Divine Wisdom, the meditations from the Vijnanabhairava Tantra, with commentary and guided meditations.

Lee has traveled the world, from the 1980s to today, teaching 1000’s the art of simple meditation and introspection, showing the way to access the deep internal experience which is the goal of all spiritual practice. Lee’s gift is to make the complex and esoteric simple and available to the uninitiated through his marvelous storytelling. He makes the deepest and most profound mystical teachings available to everyone, particularly Westerners, without any knowledge of Sanskrit or Eastern thought.

Lee’s brilliant translation and rendering of one of the most ancient and esoteric Tantras, Vijnanabhairava, entitled ‘The 112 Meditations from The Book of Divine Wisdom’, makes this rare tantric gem available to Westerners for the first time in an unencumbered and easy to read format. His thought-provoking and insightful commentary and guided meditations make studying this once abstruse Shaivite scripture a pleasure.

In our highly illustrative conversation, punctuated with Lee’s gifted storytelling ability, he demonstrates his ‘slow it down and feel your way into it’ approach to teaching. He shares his early Canadian roots and the life-changing profundity he experienced in the great Canadian frontier while still in his teens, as well as his spontaneous awakening, and with complete candor and transparency the process of integrating his inner and outer experiences, finally culminating in a decade of work on The Book of Divine Wisdom.

We hope you enjoy this conversation.

Ep#16 Sally Kempton – World Renowned Author, and Teacher of Devotional Contemplative Tantra.

Saison 2 · Épisode 16

dimanche 23 février 2020 • Durée 02:17:13

Our guest today is Sally Kempton, a world-renowned author, and Teacher of what she calls Devotional Contemplative Tantra. A tradition based on the most authoritative Shaiva scriptures, deep devotional practices, and direct experience. Her teachings are based on the most esoteric direct transmission school of non-dual awareness known as Shaktipat. The veracity and authenticity of her teachings are rooted in the teachings and transmission she received from her Guru, Baba Muktananda, which she has skillfully developed and assimilated over the last 45 years.

Her book, Meditation for the Love of It, is destined to be a spiritual classic of the 21st century as an authoritative meditation and deep contemplation manual for daily practice. She was for many years the editor of many of Muktananda’s most popular books, where she developed an Indian scriptural literacy and understanding of Muktananda’s teachings that are unprecedented among western spiritual teachers.

Our conversation is a casual and free-flowing sharing of heart space among three old friends. We cover the full spectrum of our long relationship which originated with and is still based on our deep connection to our Guru, who we affectionately refer to as Baba. Sally shares her early years meeting Baba and transitioning from a fully engaged successful career in journalism based in NYC, to focused practice and disciplined adherence to the direct transmission teachings of Muktananda and the Shaiva Tantras that is his enduring legacy.

Our nuanced discussion covers a wide range of significant issues central to authentic spiritual practice. We discuss the Guru principle, Shaktipat, and direct transmission, non-dual awareness, the ancient Shaiva tantric scriptures and the teachings that are based on them, Goddess worship, which was the subject of her book, Awakening Shakti, and much more.

Ep# 15 Bob Quinn – Organic Farmer, Author, Scientist, and Organic Food Researcher.

Saison 2 · Épisode 15

samedi 15 février 2020 • Durée 02:26:14

Our guest today is Bob Quinn, organic farmer, author, scientist, and food researcher. This conversation is a deeply insightful discussion about ancient grains, food systems, and the rural communities that produce our food. We talk about the food itself, how its grown, processed and distributed. The factors which determine the quality of our food and some of the little-known research Bob and his team have done around wheat and gluten sensitivity. He reveals discoveries he’s made about ancient grains, wheat in particular and gluten sensitivity by applying rigorous science and a persistent determination to find the cause of one of America's most mysterious food issues.

Bob didn’t start out to be food researcher, rather he sort of backed into, but like the other things he’s done in his life he jumped in with both feet and did the best he could. That attitude along with a great deal of perseverance and determination to understand the truth, uncovered previously unknown linkages to the gluten sensitivity issue and left a trail of over 30 peer-reviewed research papers on the subject of his trademarked ancient grain KAMUT® and gluten sensitivity.

The conclusion of his research efforts is a 4-point program of addressing gluten sensitivity which has proven to be over 95% effective. He explains his discovery in detail in our conversation.

However, Bob considers himself first and foremost an organic farmer. He farms in one of the more challenging environments in the United States, the dry northern plains of Montana. He’s a third-generation farmer, but the first to be certified organic. In fact, this year they will celebrate the 100th anniversary of their grandfather's founding of their family farm in Big Sandy, Montana.

There are a few things that I find interesting about Bob’s story, first, he’s not just an organic farmer, but he is also a scientist. He holds several degrees, but the most relevant and significant is a PhD in plant biochemistry from UC Davis, one of the most prestigious ag universities in the US. This broad-spectrum background gives him a perspective that is extremely rare and insightful.
This is probably one of the things I appreciate most about Bob’s work. He reflected in his recently released book, Grain by Grain:

Ep# 14 Swami Prakashananda – Biographer of Baba Muktananda, and his oldest living direct disciple.

Saison 2 · Épisode 14

samedi 1 février 2020 • Durée 02:10:55

Our guest today is Swami Prakashananda, the world-renowned biographer of Baba Muktananda and his oldest living direct disciple. Swamiji’s remarkable life has taken him to India over twenty times, spending a total of over 14 years living in India over the last fifty years.

If you have been following our Wisdom Talks podcast and listening to the previous episodes you know how often our guests mention the intersection of their lives with Baba Muktananda and how the contact with him has influenced their lives and more often than not, very dramatically.

In today’s conversation, three of Baba’s direct disciples share a behind the scenes conversation about what it was like living and serving Baba and his global mission and the thousands of followers and devotees he touched.

This is a conversation about the often-subtle teachings of one of the greatest yogis of the 20th century. We share the candid stories and insights those of us who had the privilege to work with him closely and interact with him personally experienced.

He was often called the Guru’s Guru. He was a Siddha, a master who had completely merged with Pure Consciousness, the field that underpins all 3D reality. He lived and worked with us from that vantage point, for the benefit of all who came in contact with him or approached him with a yearning for Truth.

From the Biography, by Swami Prakashananda:

Baba Muktananda was one of the most respected and revered spiritual masters of the 20th century. He not only spoke on spirituality but was an Ecstatic Yogi who had the rare ability to give a person a direct experience of the inner Self. This process is known as Shaktipat, whereby the divine power or energy — known as Shakti or Kundalini — is transmitted directly into a seeker by the Guru.

Baba Muktananda – A Biography is the story of the greatest Shaktipat Guru of modern times. You can purchase this rare book directly from Swami Prakashananda at www.sarasvatiproductions.com.

Ep# 13 Kanu Kogod - Transformational Leadership Trainer and Organizational Consultant.

Saison 2 · Épisode 13

samedi 25 janvier 2020 • Durée 02:07:49

Our guest today is Dr. Kanu Kogod, the Founder and President of Bridges in Organizations, a coaching and leadership organization that works in the business, health care, government, and non-profit sectors. She is a trained anthropologist, master certified coach, and renowned organizational development consultant.

She co-designed and facilitated Leadership Alchemy, an award-winning transformational, leadership development program which received great acclaim through its work at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center where the program was active for almost a decade.

Kanu’s mission is to develop dynamic skills for leaders using a holistic approach. It focuses on language, body, and emotions enabling her clients to design conversations, build leadership presence, and raise their emotional intelligence.

In our wide-ranging conversation, we cover the complete spectrum of the human experience beginning with her early childhood in the suburbs of Detroit, the impact that her father being a holocaust survivor had on her compassionate and sensitive world view.

She shares in great detail the development of her holistic leadership training and the magnificent work she and her organization have done working with some of the staidest and most entrenched patriarchal government cultures like NASA for almost a decade.

Be sure and stay with us to the end when she candidly shares the genesis of her transformative work and the spiritual unfoldment that still informs it today.

Ep# 12 Master Charles Cannon – American Mystic, Author, and Early High-Tech Meditation Pioneer.

Saison 2 · Épisode 12

samedi 18 janvier 2020 • Durée 02:00:39

Our conversation today is with the late Master Charles, American mystic, meditation teacher and Guru, mentor, and spiritual guide to thousands. An incredibly talented and creative individual, author of six books and countless audio and music recordings. He is an acknowledged pioneer in the evolution of human consciousness and a personal friend who I’ve known and worked with for over 45 years.

His colorful life began as a child model and actor at the age of 9, followed by twelve years beginning in 1970, of fully devoted service to his Guru, Baba Muktananda, traveling the world with him. In 1977 he was initiated into the ancient order of Sannyasa where he was given the name Swami Vivekananda Saraswati. After Muktananda’s death in 1982, he carved out on his own to finish the work Muktananda asked him to do; bring the ancient meditation traditions of India to the West and deliver them in a modern and accessible way. What followed was 35+ years of community and technology development, teaching his self-styled American brand of mysticism based on ancient Tantric traditions and the Guru-Disciple relationship to the Western world.

In our conversation, we cover the full spectrum of his life. His special relationship with Muktananda as his personal secretary, his life-long relationship with the Divine Feminine, Shaktipat initiation, Kundalini integration, the Guru-Disciple relationship, his infatuation with technology and the development of the Synchronicity High Tech Meditation process.

Master Charles passed from our physical presence on January 24, 2019. Today I offer what I believe is one of the last interviews he did before his death, to his courageous Spirit, and the friendship, love, and respect that he shared with me and so many others unwaveringly until his last breath. I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Ep# 11 John Tilton – World Renowned Porcelain Art Potter and Veteran Meditator.

Saison 2 · Épisode 11

samedi 11 janvier 2020 • Durée 01:17:43

Our guest today is John Tilton, a world-renowned porcelain potter and veteran meditator who brings four decades of focused inner work in a dynamic spiritual community to his art form. And the results are truly breathtaking. You can see the remarkable results of his dedicated awareness coupled with his passionate and skillful talent at his website, tiltonpottery.com.

Our discussion today is very practice-oriented, a rare peek at the ongoing dialogue between a devoted seeker of Truth and the subtle energies that influence that pursuit. We discuss the nuances of his ongoing ‘conversation’ with the subtle Energy one becomes aware of as they continue to refine their perception through deep spiritual inquiry. These are the often-subtle promptings, feelings, and directives that all mystics of all traditions have spoken and written about, though we all experience them.

But our conversation is practical and very real. John discusses the 200+ real-world variables that he deals with on a daily basis as he engages his art form with his beautiful creations. He discusses the perseverance needed to test these variables in what has resulted in more than 30,000 glaze tests, all formulations he personally developed.

John is an early adopter of the Eastern yogic lifestyle which he has been living very intentionally for more than four decades. The creativity and perseverance he brings to his craft, largely informed by his daily meditation and contemplative lifestyle. He says,

“I make the pots I love to make. I continue to be inspired and informed by historical pottery, by a fascination with the micro- and macro-universes, and by my lifelong effort to quiet the mind through meditation.” John Tilton

We hope you enjoy this conversation with a truly talented artist and a very deeply spiritual person.

Ep# 10 – 2019 Revisited and Looking Forward to 2020 – A Conversation between Marc Ketchel and Larry Holmes

Saison 2 · Épisode 10

samedi 4 janvier 2020 • Durée 01:48:12

In this conversation, Larry and I have a far-ranging discussion on topics dear to our hearts. We discuss the science and practice of yoga, the power of the mind to be our greatest asset or our most devastating liability. The core teaching of our Guru, Baba Muktananda, “To see the Self everywhere, in everyone.” We discuss the application of Quantum Mechanics, the ubiquitous nature of Kundalini and the interconnectedness of all life. Larry shares his teachings on ‘PurposefulLleadership. And finally, we share the power of selfless service and the beautiful work that Peter Singer is doing, serving the less fortunate. This is a very rich conversation, intended to start the new year with empowering contemplation.

There are a few points in the discussion which require further clarity or corrections. Later in the conversation, we discuss the three wealthiest people in the world and specifically the work that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is doing around the world. We wish to clarify that this is in no way an endorsement of the three wealthiest people in the world, their companies, business practices, or approaches to the issues they are addressing in their respective fields. Our discussion is however intended to honor and respect the fact that they, specifically the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, are actively trying to find solutions and address the challenges we all face as human beings. While their solutions or implementation may not be perfect or even optimal, they are proactively doing the best they know-how.

I (Marc Ketchel) also stated in our conversation that Jeff Bezos was a “wisdom holder”. I meant that in the narrowest sense. Here again, I was simply acknowledging his achievement and perseverance spanning decades in becoming the wealthiest person in the world while completely disrupting the online retail space (for better or worse) and his commitment to continued innovation in multiple sectors. Again, this is in no way an endorsement of his personal lifestyle, business ethics, or any other aspect of his activities.

Second, a correction, I (Marc Ketchel) stated in the conversation that Regenerative Agriculture was number 5 in the list of one hundred ways we are addressing the existential threat of climate change. I misspoke and this is incorrect. In fact, Regenerative Agriculture is number 11 in the list of ways to constructively and sustainably address the biggest threat to our existence on the planet, climate change. However, number 3 is reducing our food waste, which is a huge problem and something each one of us can contribute to in some meaningful way. At the present time, it is estimated that between 40 – 50% of all food produced globally is wasted. This is an alarmingly large number by any standards.

Ep # 9 Marc Ketchel – Wisdom Talks Podcast Cohost, Meditation Teacher, Veteran Organic Food and Plant Based Business Owner, Serial Entrepreneur and World Traveler.

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

vendredi 27 décembre 2019 • Durée 01:52:56

Our guest today is my “Wisdom Talks” co-host Marc Ketchel, and I’m your host Larry Holmes. Today’s episode is a conversation with my cohost Marc Ketchel, meditation teacher, veteran organic food and natural products business owner, world traveler, and serial entrepreneur. A passionate, action-oriented, get things done kind of guy and a long-time personal friend. In fact, we’ve known each other for over 45 years, living and working together on a global project beginning in the early ’70s and ’80s. We were both Vedic monks at the time and worked together teaching and managing with a large international organization founded by our Guru, Baba Muktananda.

He often refers to his ‘9 lives’ a bit tongue in cheek. But we will only cover a couple of those lives today. In this interview, we have a far-ranging conversation in which Marc discusses topics like his almost 50-year passion for the daily practice of meditation and the impact Ram Dass’ book Be Here Now had on his life, growing up in a Special Operations military town, being saved by an Army Ranger while recovering from a football injury in a military hospital, his personal and abiding relationship with his Guru, Swami Muktananda and their almost ten-year relationship as he traveled with him around the world.

He shares intimate and emotional details of his experiments with psychedelics and his life-changing relationship with the magic mushroom, psilocybin. I was also able to tease out a few nuggets from his extensive business background with insights he had working with spiritual teacher, author and iconic technology entrepreneur, Michael Singer over a ten-year period.

This interview is a small but dramatic peek at what is in store for our listeners who will listen to the Wisdom Talks podcast in the weeks and months ahead. I’m sure you will enjoy my energized guest.
