Ep 15: Holy cow! You're a Butterfly! Now What? w/Mahan Rishi Singh Khalsa

In this episode, I get to talk with one of my mentors who made a big impact on me and helped shape my spiritual journey: Mahan Rishi Singh Khalsa! He’s one of the first people to call me by my spiritual name, Surya Gian, which, when I hear it, makes me feel like my true essence, my Sat Nam. Here, he shares his wisdom and light on how to navigate the new world that is emerging from this pandemic. He invites us to let go of our attachments (to the past, to material things) and to call on our inner child to draw out wonder, imagination, and exploration so that we might create a new future. How do we do this? He offers the analogy of the butterfly, who previously was a master of walking as a caterpillar, and now must figure out how to be a master of flying, of air. Take a listen to savor the goodness he offers to help us birth a new vision for ourselves and our lives. And! He closes the episode with “Keeping Quiet”, a poem written one of my faaaavorite poets of all time, Pablo Neruda!
