As I started my usual process of querying the quantum creativity teat for nourishment, I was impregnated with a particular inspiration, one that I hope to Impregnate you with is well. More specifically, it occurred to me that if you’re reading/listening to this, regardless of your beliefs, predilections or biases, we all share a core fascination – The desire to gain clarity. The desire to sharpen our internally-facing trinocular so that we can get a peek at our truer selves and proceed toward them. In this extended monologue, I’ll attempt to turn you on to what I think are the best methods for doing just that.

Musings include –

• Why the path of the mystic is still just as relevant as ever
• How to marry mysticism with modernity to shape yourself mindfully and feel more existentially satisfied
• The importance of self-analysis using various tools
• Why goals are magical
• The necessity of blasting through the untamed thicket of your subconscious via inward-facing practices
