| 02 Jan 2025 | Heal through Panchakarma with Dr. Ramkumar Kutty | 01:03:05 | |
One of the most important aspects of walking the spiritual path - which is really just a path of freedom through inner refinement - is finding a good teacher. A good teacher enables us to stay connected to our intention by reminding us, again and again, should we forget that intention…whilst getting lost in the wild jungle of the untrained monkey mind. We are all together in this grand classroom, for our soul to play out the karmas that it needs to play out, to learn what it needs to learn on its way home, to the place beyond form, and beyond time.
