Joe Simek - "Debating Divine Goddess and Heavenly Father"

Joe Simek, co-owner of Dragonfly Yoga, returns to talk with J about his inquiries into religion and the nature of non-duality. They discuss aspects of Quakerism and community-led worship, questions of good and evil, value systems, understanding the divine, the point of nonduality, personal relationship with God, everything as a blessing, drawing lines, devotion to the goddess, suffering and orienting to love, desire for life, darkness, what "thy will" means, keeping yoga spiritual, and friendships that challenge us to learn and grow.
