So before, again, we begin to listen to our discussion, I wanted to just let you know that I've really been enjoying this theme of the Mythic Apotheca in Season 1 of The Wild Temple podcast. When I first began this podcast, I really knew nothing about podcasting, I really just wanted a safe place, even a sacred space to find my voice and to support others in doing the same, largely through myth and story. So what I've discovered in this journey that's now been a few years is that using my voice is part of my dharma.
09:20
So my direction for the podcast now is slightly shifting, where I'm still going to focus on the myths and our stories, but I'm ready for revolution. Starting next episode in Season 2, the Dharmic Revolution is to inspire and ignite your journey to self-mastery, living in alignment with nature, and to help you step into your soul purpose. I'm going to do that by sharing Sacred Technologies through a methodology called Tantric Alchemy or Twilight alchemy of the sages.
I'll be bringing in experts from the fields of psychology, teachers, leaders, and entrepreneurs to guide this spirit-led advocacy and wellness for health and wellness for our planet. So it's not just my voice you'll hear but it will be others as well.
So before we before we come to this wonderful conversation with Chanti, I want to say one last thing, I am also launching a new apprenticeship, a deep dive into these four pillars of the dharmic revolution. It's called the wild sage apprenticeship a dharmic revolution if you book a call before my birthday September 4, you will get reduced rate you will get preference into what days you work with me.

Well, I just want to, I want to say three things before I go there. First off, the mold is not broken. In the world of academia. It's not broken, it's not a broken mold. It is, you know, my movement in that direction. It feels more like a, like a path to move deeper, even in a place that says you're not welcome here. Because it's not welcoming. It's a not not a welcoming place.
31:40
But it went a little bit further, like, why are you on this planet? Why are you on this earth? And why are you on this side of, you know, the waters. And that's really what it you know, it opened up this tending of that wound, I'm going to, I've been calling it a wound forever. And that's what we were, we were doing together the last time of, of creating a place or a temple, that those parts of us do not have to be forgotten, pushed to the side.
42:12
I just I just wonder also, I feel like some, some people can do that alchemy on their own. And then I wonder where is the place where that evil that shame that, you know, where does it? Where does it live? You know, so when I think about the work, you know, the work of the composts even, it's like, is there a place for all of that to actually live. And I think that, you know, when you're talking about your ancestors coming with that, and like depositing it here. It was a maybe it was a kind of like non thinking deposit because it was just too heavy. And so if these things that we call and I just want to like name, like we call things evil from one point of view, you know, we call things survival from one point of view, when I see my grandmother, we were talking earlier, my now my living grandmother, she's 91 and has a fractured pelvis into parts and a fractured spine and whose blood is cancerous. And she will tell you, she's fine.

What I see is really helpful in where does this stuff go? Where's its where? Where can we place it? The stories are important. So I think a lot of how I learned and I awaken to truth, whether it's like the truth of history, the truth of what really happened in our pasts in our cultural pasts. And the ability to be able to step into more authentic truth without having to fit into any mold is really aligned with this the story, you know, what narratives have we inherited? That might have been adulterated or just shaped differently to serve another that we're taking on as our own power? Are we perpetuating that narrative in a way that might not be honoring ourselves? In all of the parts of ourselves in our future, and when I was sitting with my grandma on her final, in her final weeks of dying, I would say, the most powerful experiences that I had with her and to drive for hours to sit with her and she was so bitter. Nobody in the family really liked her.

the the places that are soiled, that's a good have different kinds of soil are the places that we I mean that that can be a place where we can go and deposit but I feel like we're so terrified of even uttering I I don't I don't believe we need to share our stories with another human. I do feel like they some, some part of us needs a place where those things and live outside of our bodies. And, you know, you can ask, you can simply ask, Hey, Aspen on the mountain would you like to hear this horrible story that I have to say? It's so it's weighing so heavy on my soul, there's a story I'm thinking about now, it's a longer story.
1:05:53
I, you know, part of our humaneness involves, like, rupture. And like you just said, tearing apart of a bird, you know, like we're not, we forget that we're also a human is we are animals, to some degree, where we are, we just are, and that like, dismissing of that part of ourselves that's like, gets angry, or disgusted, or like, wants to, like, hit things really hard. It's like, oh, no, we shouldn't do that we shouldn't, that has no place in this culture. And that's after wounding itself, I'm just going to say that.
1:06:37
And then there's that difference between primal nature and sub human tendencies. But what I feel I want to take away from you personally, is this giving the space so just making space more for, you know, what, what could appear to be a more negative feeling trait tendency, or thought or motion, as equally as the potential of what can be not to dissuade one or the other, but in that giving space, it feels to me that then the friction can occur on its own, and right fire, like can't be created without some kind of friction. So whether that friction is that of destruction, right, or if it's that friction that awakens us, we still need that friction. So I'm going to take away that I want to create more space for the friction to occur. And, and allow that transformation to happen.
