Universal Human with Gary Zukav
Episode 57: Show Notes.
If this is the first time you are listening to this show, you're in for quite the treat because today’s guest is one of the most prolific spiritual teachers of our time. His name is Gary Zukav, and he is the author of The Seat of the Soul, The Dancing Wu Li Masters, and most recently, Universal Human.
We usually devote the first part of this show to the backstories of our guests but today we will be deviating slightly from that format. This is because Gary is such a masterful spiritual teacher that I decided to use the space of the full interview to hear him speak more about what it means to be a universal human, and where he sees us going as a human race, which is in the direction of becoming what he calls multi-sensory humans.
For Gary, all humans can undergo multi-sensory experiences, but not everyone is aware of them when they happen. It is during these experiences that we perceive our connection to the greater universe and they point the way to a new consciousness.
We spend a large chunk of our conversation talking about the meaning of authentic power and how to live in such away so that we can access it. This process is grounded in the intention to live in love rather than fear and Gary speaks about the knock-on effects that an internal change like this will affect in our greater surroundings.
Tune in and learn what spiritual growth is all about with Gary today.
