I received the following email which I will respond to in the podcast:
Hi Michael I had a discussion with my brother about ancient teqnologies and oh boy we had such different perspectives, he had some good points tough like if the ancients had better tech, why didn’t we find cellphones cars planes if they had those things and if they didn’t obviously this is the best age. And about politics he said immigrants are needed that’s why the west let them in for economic growth. He made some good points. What is your view on this i would love to know Best regards
multiple tech pathways. our path is not the only one. projecting our path on all history
is too narrow a viewpoint. there are 5 elements. current tech relies only on fire element. enlightened tech relies on all elements. what enlightened society is like is beyond comprehension of our age
the earth will bear Her riches
Siddhis, other planets, weather, flying cities

The sounder, the process of sounding, and the sound…Brahman Consciousness. The Guru known and unknown. When is a saint ever “a saint in his own home”?
Football stadium from the distance sounds like A…A…A… but closer up it is the quantum sounds of individuals. Like that, the syllables of the Veda are components of the One Sound A…A…A…
relativity is bondage lest it is fully integrated with A…A…A…freedom
The Guru is the gateway to freedom. The Guru is the Guru’s teachings. No separation. Beyond personality or better said, the personality is fully part of That. Yet if the perceiver is not fully integrated within themselves it is not fully seen.
full potential in the sprout A…A…A…: Mt Soma: well begun is half done. Guests are feeling it!
Pasya…See… So simple

Discernabiity is based upon level of consciousness
Ask 3 different Vedic scholars to translate the same verse of Veda and you can get 3 very different translations. Yet they delight in one and others translation… No contradictions
What good are verses of the Veda to those whose minds have not expanded to infinity?
How to see. Pasya…See… a vedic “scholar” calling the Veda “drinking songs’ is an extreme example of the point

The depth structures the surface. It is not the other way around.

Deeper value of non-attachment is not an attitude, belief, behavioral mode, or theory. it is a state of consciousness.
In fact, that is why deep knowledge is so elusive. It is only understood on the level of one’s own consciousness. Knowledge is structured in consciousness.

Enlightenment happens in a moment. comes on gradually but all of a sudden. Then the adjustment process goes on for years… eternally really.
equanimity
