Episode notes

Enna returns for a second interview on her second book, “Broody Blue: A Handbook of Ruthless Gentleness for the Natural Human Mystic”. The title alone gives reason to pause and soften where the hard edges of the stress we’re under can be. She writes on the back cover,

“When humanity is at a crossroads, do you yearn for the whole human in you? Perhaps you have already explored many paths, old or new. Or none of them.

You are invited here to the most discreet of ways — one hardly known at all in the western world. A simple way of non-practices, the way of our true nature. It is already inside you, breathing the spirit that breathes you. It has been waiting for you to heed your own call.”

I’m very much looking forward to this conversation with her, a sister spirit, in the spirit of the most subtle layers of sacred purpose.

Enna’s Bio:

A Human Being, fiercely and tenderly in love with Lady Earth, I am devoted to our human co-evolving bond with her, and endlessly exploring what it means to be human.

As an anthropologist, I lean into traditional cultures and grassroots wisdom. After ten years in an esoteric caste-denying Indian subculture, I left my academic PhD behind to go barefoot as an aspiring peasant in the spirit of regenerative farming. Perhaps this is ‘deep’ anthropology, experiential rather than theoretical, and in apprenticeship to Nature, the greatest teacher whose language our subtle bodies can understand better than our restless minds.

Both west and east have made me a polyglot who takes words seriously, and delights in silence that nourishes my contemplative spirit.

The west gave me an education, but I credit my un-learning to the east.

I live at the edge of a village in Southeast Asia, among tropical trees and paddy fields, and a large free-ranging menagerie.
