• Exploring the ‘disappointment’ of enlightenment and the persistence of human suffering
• Cultivating deep intimacy with every part of life and all lived experiences
• Practicing emotional grounding and staying present with all feelings
• Linking quantum mechanics and consciousness with emotional and spiritual expansion
• Understanding the difference between traditional and tantric devotion
• Recognizing emotions as gateways to non-dual awareness and higher consciousness
• Using devotional practices to open and stabilize the heart in the face of suffering
• Living consciously to prepare for a more peaceful and intentional death
• Reflecting on political chaos as a possible catalyst for awakening in America
• Embracing the idea that everything unfolds within wholeness and divine perfection

“We expect enlightenment to be everything’s going to be fine, no pain in the body, no pain in the mind, no, there’s still gonna be pain, we just have a very different relationship with it. We have to let go of the notion that we’re going to fix everything. It’s not about becoming happy, it’s about becoming real, it’s about becoming intimate with all of our experience.” – RamDev
