Spiritual Grit Holy Cow! You’re a butterfly! Now what? with Mahan Rishi Singh Khalsa | Best of Vinyasa in Verse Podcast Episode 48
In this special “Best of” series of Vinyasa in Verse, I’m highlighting some episodes that recap a crazy year full of shifts and growth. In this one, I talk with one of my mentors who has 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 shared about our spiritual journey being a subtly formless, yet solid experience in which we can grow and evolve. // We are born with an incredible facet within our being - to have a sense of curiosity, exploration, a constant experience of experimentation, a constant sense of discovery, and imagination. // There's nothing wrong with having a beautiful material quality in one's life. But when one’s energy is consumed by that, and one's attention and sense of self worth is built on material well being or material aspects, we get really sidetracked. Awareness and consciousness are the foundation for making healthy choices. // There's still a lot to be grateful for - not to focus on what we don't have, but to focus on what we do have. // Take a listen to savor the goodness he offers to help us birth a new vision for ourselves and our lives. // Find Mahan Rishi here: Khalsa Healing Arts, Yardley, PA https://khalsahealing.com // Thinking of starting a meditation practice for the new year?
