Stone By Stone: The Pathway To Enlightenment W/ Panache Desai #290

When Oprah Winfrey, Jack Canfield, and Deepak Chopra all agree on something, you know it’s probably worth at least checking out — and I was absolutely blown away by my time with Panache Desai, author of "You Are Enough: Revealing the Soul to Discover Your Power, Potential, and Possibility." There are few conversations I’ve had in my life that were more uplifting or inspiring than this one. Panache is truly a spiritual teacher for the modern age, able to communicate spiritual truths and ancient concepts in a way that feels simple and approachable.  "You Are Enough," for example, shares a revelatory energetic process that moves you beyond what holds you back, opening a gateway to passion, purpose, and possibility. It isn’t just a theory. You can put the ideas that Panache shares in this podcast and in the book into action right away, transforming the way you experience life. But, above all else, we both hope you leave this episode with one takeaway — that YOU ARE ENOUGH!   07:45 — Being grateful There are small gifts that came during the pandemic, especially if you get to spend more time with family The health struggles that Panache’s youngest child went through during the first 18 months of her life We need to suffer in order to be humble Advice for anyone struggling with the trap of fear in this time of magnificent change and social upheaval   14:15 — Growing up & finding the spiritual path Panache grew up Indian in London  Spirituality was a big part of his life from a young age Realizing he was born with true spiritual gifts and insights How his saving grace came through music Getting burnt out, taking a break, and then returning to spirituality with renewed vigor The uplifting energy of being around Kundalini when you’re young   26:40 — Reconciling the brand with spiritual service Panache’s awakening The difference between having a career and having a calling How to maintain humility as one grows in fame, notoriety, and success How to be empathetic and serve others without taking on their burdens   36:05 — “The Fallen Guru” phenomenon The first time Luke prayed to a particular entity The subsequent scandal around that guru Not mistaking yourself as the source when you are a spiritual teacher How Panache has had to contend with the spiritual ego and the feeling of specialness Every role we identify with is a limitation that we eventually have to transcend   43:35 — How ayahuasca served as a catalyst for Panache Rythmia came into his life after the hardest 18 months he’d ever gone through A masterclass in shaktipat Welcome To The Jungle: My Ayahuasca Journey At Rythmia Part One Welcome To The Jungle: My Ayahuasca Journey At Rythmia Part Two...
