Hot & Happy - that's me! 🤣 Husband has been trying to get me in a van for some time but I like a rear view and need back seats. Today we went on an epic road trip to look at a van he found that he was convinced would suit well...and it does! A crew cab in the back and with the addition of a little camera on the back and a clip on display for it you can even pretend you've got a rear view mirror! The crunch came when I went to put my ZDoggMD coffee flask in a cup holder and it didn't fit...for a second the deal was off...turns out there's a larger cup holder on the dash - HAPPY

We discuss the challenges of spiritual ego, which I've grappled with myself, and discuss the role of psychedelics in opening new pathways of understanding. And we touch on the importance of embracing the unknown as the true entry point to the nature of reality.
Topics covered include:
The Threads of Awakening model and its impact
Trust and surrender in the spiritual journey
Navigating spiritual ego and its pitfalls
Psychedelics as tools
Embracing the unknown and the ...

Here's a beautiful direct non-dual pointer from Kogen, taken from our longer interview. Enjoy!
So I know Risa does cool paint by numbers. This is my jam. Diamond painting. I need to frame a few still.
Finished pulling the stinging nettles listening to Z and Kogen while making little discoveries in the veg patch.
- Potato flowers are as perfect as any orchid
- Even flies are beautifully perfect when they aren't sniffing round shit
- A Nettle could be the embodiment of a Zen Master, endlessly hitting this foolish student seeking perfection
- The Nettle that is stinging you is sometimes the one you are holding. Drop it.
Nice day for it though 🌞
