Unlocking Spirituality - Expanding Consciousness Through Community #spiritualgrowth #podcast

yeah for me like in the spirituality thing all I can kind of say is like I think it's a composite of like multiple ways that you try to understand yourself understand the world around you and then develop yourself forward and I guess the vision that I have for this is that we're bringing in all these different tools for people that are ones of our own experience so I try to be as personal as possible with these things so for me it probably started with like I had my own like stuff growing up but it was like physics was was Consciousness expanding for me like was Consciousness expanding for me did some acid that was Consciousness expanding for me yeah yeah yeah right got oh the Zen shit's cool that expanded my Consciousness you know that got a little bit more into a tradition that had more Theory and trajectory to it of how to develop a person right but the psychology I like too was the one that was very transformative right it had to do with like really finding out who you are and then kind of like one of the words we love authenticity yeah so that happened and then it was sort of this thing of like going to the the the the accomplishments of human beings who are trying to explore those same questions yes what's the nature of the universe what's the nature of a person is there a soul what's the nature of that Soul or Spirit you know how can you develop it if it exists you know yeah you know it was sort of those kinds of things and that's sort of I guess what I think of spirituality is being and then realizing you're not the only people who have done this that's what I was just going to say before you have like asked these same questions and we could all be part of this dialogue yep and then we can get to share it with new people and I think that's that's the that's the that's the thing right there man is like when you find yourself having questions that other people have asked previous to you and you can look at the results of their question of their you know questioning and answering it can help you with your own questioning that's really the benefit of being in in a in a in a in a s in a community right in because that's contemporary and probably people in your community are asking similar questions but then that's also the benefit in being in a in in a tradition I'm not saying which tradition I'm saying a tradition because others have asked the same if not similar questions before you and you can look at the results of what their research has shown and then use that to further your own inquiry
