71. Swan Dao on Community Living, Sexuality, Consciousness and Personal Growth (part two)
Description
We are delighted to welcome Swan Dao back for the second of his two-part episode on the Mangu.tv podcast series.
Giancarlo and Swan pick up from where they left off in part one. They have a heartfelt conversation covering communal living, personal growth, creativity, sexuality, BDSM and spirituality. Swan shares his insights on communal living and the value of sustained effort and open communication for growth. They speak about the healing potential of tantra and BDSM, and Swan offers his perspective on the value of power dynamics involved with BDSM, which is often stigmatised. He speaks about his disenchantment with the hetronormativity in the sacred sexuality world, and the value of expressing desires and boundaries in an intimate setting, as well as deconstructing societal norms, and the empowerment of social liberation.
Giancarlo and Swan speak about inspirations and passions. Swan shares his love for medicinal, edible plants and polyphonic singing. He speaks about upcoming retreats, including a singing tour in Georgia. Swan highlights the importance of experiential approaches to understanding consciousness and spirituality, focusing on experiences and practices. Finally, Giancarlo and Swan discuss collective growth as opposed to personal growth and the value of recognising the interconnectedness of all beings.
