Spiritual practice, like everything else in life, is evolving. What does this mean? By ‘Spiritual Practice’ I mean any activity that expands your sense of identity, for example meditation, contemplative philosophy, prayer, yoga, martial arts, psychedelics, transpersonal psychotherapy, fasting, visualisation, lucid dreaming, conscious parenting, forgiveness and much more. By ‘Evolving’ I mean that everything develops and adapts over time. Most of the spiritual traditions that have spawned these transformational practices emerged hundreds and often thousands of years ago in the pre-modern era. Modernity (rationality and science) and post-modernity (cultural diversity and the information age) are hugely influential historical periods that have happened since then, and I believe that contemporary spiritual practice needs to integrate the insights of these two worldviews as well as the premodern in order to keep being relevant and adaptive in a changing world.

The Daemon and Cheating the Ferryman with Anthony Peake
In this conversation with Anthony Peake we discuss the bold hypothesis he calls ‘Cheating the Ferryman’: when we die we fully relive our lives again and again (a bit like the film Groundhog Day) Anthony proposes that we are composed of two entities, the Daemon who has lived our life over and over and remembers it all, who provides hints to the Eidolon who is renewed every new life. We talk about Deja vus and it’s relation to this hypothesis, temporal lobe epilepsy, schizophrenia, cannabis induced psychosis, near death experiences, DMT, Ketamine and synchronicity. Anthony has now written eight books, co-authored a ninth and co-edited a tenth. All of them develop his Cheating the Ferryman hypothesis into ever-wider areas of application.

Near Enemies of theTruth: Christopher Hareesh Wallis
In this conversation I talk to Christopher Hareesh Wallis about his book ‘Near Enemies of the Truth: Avoid the Pitfalls of the Spiritual Life and Become Radically Free’
Have you ever been told, “You create your own reality”? Have you been encouraged to “be your best self” or “follow your bliss”? Nowadays these slogans are everywhere, but what if they’re doing more harm than good? After over thirty years as a scholar-practitioner of meditation and Tantric philosophy, acclaimed author Hareesh explores the most widespread distortions of spiritual teachings present in our world today. Rooted in the Asian wisdom traditions, his book uncovers why these oft-heard platitudes are “near enemies” to the truth, often detour us off the spiritual path, and can even cause unnecessary suffering.

Anna Grear: How to live well with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Anna Grear has been living with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) since 1989 which has seen her confined to her bed and house for extended periods of time where she was forced to go deep into her psyche. In this interview Anna describes the profound spiritual experiences associated with her condition, and the many practical skills she has learned in how to cope with CFS. We also discuss how fatigue is a metaphor and symptom of late stage capitalism.
Anna coaches people with CFS and also those wishing to deeply explore their sense of identity: for more information please visit https://www.hypnocatalyst.com (https://www.hypnocatalyst.com)
Anna also has a podcast called ‘the fatigue files’: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-fatigue-files/id1664552299
