Sitara Podcast Ep. 2 — The Compass of Contradictions: Enlightenment, Ego Death & the Balance of Opposites

In Episode 2 of the Sitara Podcast, Prophet Monarch, Avi Nash and Prophet, Caleb Lara dive deep into the paradoxes of existence—where opposites not only define our reality but may actually hold the key to enlightenment. What happens when we embrace contradiction instead of resisting it? What role does joy play in our spiritual compass? From Masonic symbolism and Kantian synthesis to Jungian individuation and simulated reality theory, this episode explores how to live authentically in a world of dualities. A podcast for Freemasons, philosophers, and seekers of esoteric truths—raw, real, and irreverent.
