Acharya Shunya on How the Dharma Protects Us
Or so the conversation begins with Acharya Shunya. I count myself on the list of lucky mortals to have befriended this living guru. Our conversations are simultaneously easy and profound. I must say its a trippy experience. We’ve only spoken 3 times ever. This was the third.
For those new to Acharya Shunya she is the spiritual director at vedikaglobal.org. She has created a true gurukulam in Berkeley, CA. Our conversation takes place hot off the heels of her meeting with India’s Prime Minster with a progressive group conversation about the future of Ayurveda for India with the top happening people from all over the world. How cool is that?
In this conversation with Acharya Shunya
I rap with Acharya Shunya about tapping into the Protection of Your Dharma.
What you’ll get out of tuning in
- Why you may be confused by not knowing the 3 types of dharma all have.
- Svadharma, sādhāraṇa dharma, Vishishta dharma
- How to tap into energy efficiency for miracles in your life to occur
- What is emerging in the field of Collective Leadership.
On Ego + Making Money
On the Naked Truth segment Grace Edison, both a colleague and thriver asks me about the role of ego in making money.
