Descripción

What do we do when the load we carry becomes too heavy to make sense of? We all face moments in life characterized by deep suffering that feels impossible to navigate or overcome, and oftentimes it feels like it consumes us entirely and changes us against our own will. In this episode, I share a small fragment of my own journey, and how presence and prayer have transformative and healing properties. Listen to how you can perceive things differently, in order to elevate into the highest version of self.

Chess, Not Checkers: Why Logic Must Supersede Emotion in World Politics and Elsewhere

The removal of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has the world talking about a new world order, and as a result you can notice a level of certainty and confidence that things will improve internally in the country. The only problem is that change cannot be built on a foundation filled with cracks and fueled by hatred. Today, we see a dangerous pattern repeating itself. There is a celebration of foreign interference on one's own soil, out of a desperate desire for new beginnings. It is the same emotional fire that fueled the 1979 replacement of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, with Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini - a maneuver that proved that any action birthed from hate can only produce a harvest of further suffering. A former monarchy was exchanged with a rule under Islam, by the hands of its own citizens. I argue the importance of choosing logic over the impulse of revenge, for a short lived victory in disguise. I also use Chess as a metaphor, to prove this point. If you lose your logical neutrality to the fire of emotion, you have already checkmated yourself on behalf of your opponent. If you aren't thinking 10-20+ moves ahead, you aren't playing the game - you are being played. The same is true for world politics. Listen to lessons stemming from Henry Kissinger and Diplomacy, The Cuban Missile Crisis and why a truly free Iran requires a paradigm shift - from an emotionally unrestrained stalemate, to a calm and calculated check-mate.
