We're joined by special guest Wade Chumney, Associate Professor of Business Ethics & Law at California State University, Northridge, and author of 'Conscious Business Ethics: The Practical Guide to Wisdom'.

We delve into the wisdom traditions that have shaped human understanding of ethics and how these principles can be applied to AI development. Wade's expertise in business ethics and his work on conscious business practices bring a unique perspective to this discussion.

What role does human consciousness play in this technological revolution?

In this enlightening episode of Musings From The Mount, Michael Lindfield and Joseph Carenza dive deep into the concept of "The Great Reset" from a spiritual perspective. They explore how this reset relates to the Tibetan's vision of a new world order and the emergence of the Aquarian Age. The Great Reset is about getting back on track with our original spiritual purpose, likening it to recalibrating a GPS when we've gone off course.

The discussion touches on the ideas of purpose, plan, and project in the context of planetary evolution. We describe how these concepts relate to different energy centers or "chakras" of the Earth, with Shambhala representing the head center, the realm of souls as the heart center, and humanity as the throat center, emphasizing that we are all part of this greater plan, and our task is to bring love, light, and spiritual power to Earth.

A key takeaway from the conversation is the importance of three spiritual practices: self-forgetfulness, harmlessness, and right speech. Michael elaborates on how these simple yet profound practices can lead to significant spiritual growth. The power of speech, in particular, is highlighted as a creative force, with every word we utter being an act of creation.

As we navigate these times of great change, Michael and Joseph remind us that love is the ultimate binding force in the universe. They encourage listeners to align themselves with their soul's purpose and to play their part in the planetary plan. This episode offers valuable insights for anyone seeking to understand and participate in the spiritual evolution of our world.

Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the veil of our current reality? In their latest thought-provoking episode of Musings From the Mount, Michael Lindfield and Joseph Carenza dive deep into the mysteries surrounding the upcoming "conclave" in 2025 - a gathering of highly evolved spiritual teachers who convene 25 years into the beginning of each century to assess humanity's progress.

Drawing from the Agni Yoga teachings and Alice Bailey's writings, they explore how the last conclave in the 1920s planted seeds of awareness about atomic energy, the influence of color and sound, and more - foreshadowing major scientific breakthroughs of the 20th century. The question now is: what new realms of knowledge and possibility might the 2025 conclave unveil?

Michael and Joseph grapple with this profound query through the lens of the "Syrian law of freedom" - the notion that we must have inward realizations rather than be instructed from above. They posit that humanity's ethical maturity and openness to unity and love may be key criteria the conclave uses to determine our readiness for further evolution of consciousness.

Don't miss this fascinating exploration shining light on our collective role in the unfoldment of divine creative expression. Subscribe now to be a part of the conversation probing the deepest mysteries of our existence on this planet.

Welcome back to Season Three of the podcast!

The Agents of Circulation: The Path to a Beloved Community and a Golden Age

In the latest insightful episode of "Musings From The Mount", hosts Joseph Carenza and Michael Lindfield explore profound spiritual truths and guidance for humanity at this critical juncture. They discuss how we are going through an "unveiling" and "apocalypse" - a revelation where the veils and facades are being ripped away from institutions, ideas and personalities as the world heads towards a momentous decision point in 2025.

The conversation delves into the role the "Masters of Wisdom" or advanced spiritual teachers play in helping guide humanity's evolution and readiness for the next stage. Joseph and Michael share insights from the Ageless Wisdom teachings about overcoming the "nine-headed Hydra" of our impulses and negativities through the power of love and compassion. They explore how empathy, loving-kindness, and regarding ourselves as part of the "one life" of the planet can birth the "presence of a greater love" within us - which is key to passing the initiatory tests humanity now faces.

Blending perspectives from various traditions, the hosts discuss how 2025 may bring the opportunity for a new "golden age" and birth of a "beloved community" of harmony and mutual care - or a descent into a "callous culture" akin to spiritual Mad Max Universe. But there is hope if we can adopt the mentors' guidance, embody the law of love in our daily actions, and become true "agents of circulation" for the spirit of peace and oneness. Don't miss this profound dialogue on the choice before humanity.
