In Physics of the Soul, Goswami helps listeners understand the perplexities of the quantum physics model of reality and the perennial beliefs of spiritual and religious traditions.

In this extraordinary best seller, James Hillman presents a brilliant vision of our selves, and an exciting approach to the mystery at the center of every life that asks, “What is it, in my heart, that I must do, be, and have? And why?” Drawing on the biographies of figures such as Ella Fitzgerald and Mohandas K. Gandhi, Hillman argues that character is fate, that there is more to each individual than can be explained by genetics and environment. The result is a reasoned and powerful road map to understanding our true nature and discovering an eye-opening array of choices.

Kahlil Gibran wrote prolifically and passionately in Arabic as well as English. First published in 1965 with nine works of poetry translated by Joseph Sheban, Mirrors of the Soul includes writings by Gibran that are as poignant today as when first written, such as “The New Frontier” and “The Sea.” These poems illuminate the dual nature of Gibran, who lived in the shadows both of New York skyscrapers and the cedars of his childhood Lebanon.

We, Western minds, have forgotten who we are, despite having never once stopped being who we are. We've lost touch with the impersonal, Daimonic forces that give us direction and the sacrificial nature of our existence. No longer do we realize that our lives aren't, have never been, and will never be about ourselves. Consequently, we've lost our ability to sense the immanent context that couches our lives in meaning and purpose. Our alienation from our own inborn nature and role has led to a tragic schism: a divorce between essence and narrative, being and action.

Oscar Wilde's essay about the benefits of socialism, how it would change the face of society, and bring peace by erasing the concept of private property. In his unique manner, he sticks his finger into the very pain points of the English society of his time, which might remind some of issues we find in society today as well. Leaving no doubt of how much he despised being rich; almost as much as he despised being poor.

Some feel like you shouldn't be hearing this at all. Industry-adjacent. Socially fluent. Emotionally detached in the best way. If you're looking for outrage, this isn't ...

I’m fascinated by people’s connection to the divine and how they came to their spirituality. Growing up in Rural Indiana, I felt very much the outcast. I couldn’t quite find my place to “fit in” religiously. I found things in each new religion I studied that I liked and incorporated into my life, but I couldn’t find the one that fit just right. I now realize I was never meant to fit into a single religion but to build my beliefs as I go. It has now become a passion to help others find their beliefs, however that looks like for them. I hope to break down the barriers we have put ...
