It's my birthday tomorrow! And I'm thinking about how thin the lines between birth and death and life are (and how the human tradition of birthday celebration is actually strange) Journal entry: 12/07/2022 - We Living/Growing/Dying Beings blogpost: We Living/Growing/Dying Beings Love youuu3 Hosted on Acast.

"What if I give Jesus the wheel and we end up crashing?" In this episode, I share the more chaotic side of the conversation around surrender. Don't be fooled into thinking it's all sunshine and daisies and you'll never suffer again. Instead, realise that the suffering of surrender might hurt less (and even be more magical) than the hurt of attachment/aversion. Pick your flavour...

"To open myself up to God is to invite the big orgasmic, electric current, wanting to happen in and through me" On Jesus and St Teresa of Avila.

Humans (unconsciously) desire pain, suffering, hatred and crime. The desire become extremely dangerous when it is unconscious. And why is it unconscious? Because we pretend to be "civil/holy/clean" humans and end up discarding our "dirt"... to our own detriment.

"God is with me when I'm doom-scrolling on Instagram while taking a dump." God is with me always. In this episode, we explore the idea of dirt as a cultural phenomenon that establishes order, power relations and cultural dynamic. In every culture, dirt is loathed, rejected and condemned. But what if dirt is natural, or it makes us who we are? What if Dirtiness is Next to Godliness? Instagram: @learnerhuman Blog: learnerhuman.com To show your support/donate: Buy Me A Coffee Love:...

Everything I said in episode 1 is true. And the opposite is also... true. Let's play a bit of devil's advocate and find ways to hold polar opposites as true in our hearts. Putting self-responsibility and self-compassion in one basket, creating a magical and revolutionary paradox.

Long time no see, my friends! I am back from a much needed hiatus and we’re kicking off Season 2 with a huge caveat for whenever things get... political. Let’s be honest, it’s quite difficult to observe the human condition and to be Right Where We Are without noticing that everything (and I mean e👏🏾ve👏🏾ry👏🏾thing👏🏾) is intrinsically connected to the realm of the socio-political.  In this episode, we explore a new way of thinking/talking about politics that is not divisive and does not result...

We did it Joe! We've come to the end of season 1 of RWYA... Or maybe we didn't do it Joe. Maybe it's too imperfect to let it come to an end. Are we really going to end the season off on episode 6? With only 3 "full" episodes, and another 3 episodes that basically say the same thing? YES! Yes we are. This episode is about allowing our creations to be imperfect, incomplete, messy and... human. We explore the importance of showing up imperfectly, in the fullness of our human expression. In...

It’s been 2 months since I last released an episode (wasn’t my intention) but I come baaaackkk!  This episode is a combination of a comeback, a reintroduction & a vow renewal. Lets redefine what this podcast is and most importantly, what it is not. I want to make it clear what I desire for this podcast, what you can expect and we can let things flow from there. This is also a kind of “disclaimer” because I’m finally ready and willing to be my most unhinged self.  * * * * * * * * ... ...

I’m a liar! A big liar. I lie all the time, I lie about everything, I lie to everyone, & most importantly, I lie to myself. This episode is an exploration of truth, dishonesty, shame & the shadow. We talk about the philosophy, ethics and psychology of lying. We uncover why lying might not be such a terrible thing after all. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

“SHAME ON YOU!” It seems the whole world is constantly screaming these words at us. “You are unworthy, invalid, inferior.” This episode takes place at the gym, and I speak about shame and my theories on its origins in human history. I then add my take on it as an unhealthy and unnatural emotion, and definitely not an effective one. This one’s long and filled with some academic references. I’ve added a bibliography below. I’ve also created a Guide on my Instagram (@khanyis.isibhakabhaka)....

This episode takes place in my bedroom, in my childhood home. We dive into the concept of taking up space and some of my philosophical takes on this phenomenon. I then share a bit of my own story on my decision to take up space by allowing my ideas and desires come to life, including the idea of this podcast.
