Episode notes

Given the evil still in this world, this emotionally charged episode is with one of the most powerful warriors in the fight for the soul of humanity—Fr. Seán ÓLaoire, who was kicked out of the Catholic Church, because the God he KNOWS is not the God of the scripture. In his book "Setting God Free," he put the God of the Bible on trial for crimes against humanity. The verdict? The wrathful, jealous deity worshipped by fundamentalists is merely a projection of the human shadow onto the divine. And when we set God free from our projections, God sets us free from our illusions.

With 80 years of accumulated wisdom this Irish priest, psychologist, and mystic has spent decades exploring the boundaries between religion and direct spiritual experience. He's recorded his dreams since 1979, contracted malaria in Kenya which helped expand new para-psychological faculties of understanding. One of his core teachings is that evil is not just a violation of human law, but "a cosmic conspiracy using human intermediaries to separate souls from Source.”

In this conversation, we explore the four expressions of compassion (including when confrontation becomes the most loving response), the cosmic significance of what's happening in Iran, and why mystics are the keepers of the flame while dogma tries to extinguish it. Sean shares his vision of 64,442 beings of light stationed around Earth at this critical moment in our evolution, and reads his breathtaking "Eucharistic Prayer of the Cosmos," a channeled piece that honors God as dancer, artist, sculptor, musician, mathematician, physicist, and awakener.

If you’ve made it this far, just put on the show, you’re in for a wild and beautiful ride.
