#9: Dualism and the Separation of Heaven, Mind, Body and Nature
Description
In our latest episode, we'll explore how our modern worldview has fractured our understanding of reality, dividing us from nature, each other, and ourselves.
For most of human history, people lived with an intimate connection to the natural world, understanding that we are part of a living, breathing ecosystem. But over time, empires rose, and the European Enlightenment introduced a new way of thinking.
Nature became an object to be studied and exploited, and humans were reduced to isolated, rational beings. How does that affect how we look at ourselves, each other and Mother Earth?
Join me as we unravel how dualism has shaped our disconnection and explore how we can heal and reconnect with the deeper unity of life ⚖️ 🌎
