In this episode, Michael explores the intersection of personal experience and spiritual practice. He discusses the Bhagavad Gita, focusing on Chapter 10, where Arjuna faces an inner conflict as he sees his own kin on the opposing side of the battlefield. This moment serves as a powerful metaphor for the paradoxes we encounter in life, grappling between the idealist and the shadow. Recorded March 10, 2006.
