This episode features a wide-open, informative, and fun-filled conversation with my new friend, Mokshani, who is the ambassador of our local Ram Dass satsang. Listen along as Mokshani opens up about how her spiritual path has made the most profound impact on her mental health, the miracles that ensued on her recent trip to India, her career as an occupational therapist, and her observations about the ways she’s seen Western medicine begin to integrate more ancient Eastern wisdoms into its practices. We also discuss the most fun and fascinating aspects of living here in the South, and our shared lifelong appreciation for classic rock and boy bands.
For context, when we discuss Maharaj-ji, we are referring to Neem Karoli Baba who was Ram Dass’s very beloved guru and was also believed to be the reincarnation of the Hindu monkey god, Lord Hanuman. There are many stories recounting Maharaj-ji’s playful spirit and I think he may have mischievously been messing with me as I set up the audio for this interview, so my apologies for the sound quality and that my voice sounds a bit distorted— though, fortunately, Mokshani does not. I know you’ll thoroughly enjoy her magnetic energy and her way of being as she shares her take on life. Also, we decided to record outside because it was such a pretty day so you’ll get to enjoy lots of ambient noises from the surrounding birds, planes, helicopters, and wind. I appreciate your grace as I continue to learn on the job!
On a more serious note, I happen to be publishing this episode just one day after a horrific event took place, where over 100 people lost their lives in a stampede that occurred at a satsang event in Hathras, India. Our hearts go out to our brothers and sisters in India who are suffering as a result of this incident, as well as to all beings who are suffering around the world right now.
