SUMMARY:WHY MEN NEED TO BE INITIATED - AS MEN | The Free Radical Podcast # EP 78 — Deva Madhava 9/16/26
DESCRIPTION:In this upcoming episode of the Free Radical Podcast\, we sit down once again with dear friend and brother\, mentor\, author\, and Vaishnava creative Deva Madhava Das for a profound conversation on initiation\, masculinity\, and the spiritual journey toward wholeness. \nDrawing from years of experience building intentional spiritual community through the Harmony Collective in Michigan\, Deva Madhava explores the importance of rites of passage for modern men\, the role of elders and brotherhood\, and why initiation is not a single event but an ongoing process of transformation. Together\, we discuss the wounds and challenges many men carry\, the wisdom traditional cultures preserved around initiation\, and how authentic community helps shape integrated\, spiritually grounded human beings. \nThis conversation also touches on the unique spiritual strengths women bring into communal and devotional life\, the necessity of bearing witness to one another’s struggles\, and the sacred responsibility of growing into maturity with honesty\, humility\, and support. \nA rich and deeply human dialogue on tribe\, belonging\, spiritual formation\, and what it truly means to become whole. \non Youtube!

SUMMARY:FROM EGO TO INFINITY: STATES\, STAGES AND THE HUMAN JOURNEY | The Free Radical Podcast # EP 79 — Ken Wilber 10/07/26
DESCRIPTION:In this episode of the Free Radical Podcast\, we sit down with renowned thinker Ken Wilber for a far-reaching and nuanced exchange on consciousness\, spirituality\, and human development. \nWilber\, creator of Integral Theory\, is known for his ambitious attempt to synthesize the insights of the world’s major spiritual\, philosophical\, and scientific traditions into a unified framework. With over 25 books translated into around 30 languages\, his work has made a lasting impact across fields including psychology\, education\, leadership\, medicine\, and organizational development. Often described as the “Einstein of consciousness studies\,” he is widely regarded as one of the most influential contemporary voices in the study of human evolution and awareness. \nHis most recent book\, Finding Radical Wholeness (2024)\, which he calls the most significant work of his career\, continues to expand his vision of integral living and development. \nIn this conversation\, we explore the many layers of Wilber’s thinking—and much more. It’s a warm\, thoughtful\, and deeply reflective exchange that invites listeners into a broader understanding of what it means to be human. \non Youtube! Swami Padmanabha – YouTube \n

SUMMARY:THE RELATIONAL ARCHITECTURE OF BHAKTI | The Free Radical Podcast # EP 80 — Mukunda Dasa 10/21/26
DESCRIPTION:On this episode of The Free Radical Podcast\, we sit down with Vaishnava scholar\, author\, and teacher Mukunda Prabhu for a wide-ranging and deeply reflective conversation. \nBorn in Cleveland\, Ohio and shaped by an early introduction to yoga and meditation through his uncle\, Mukunda Prabhu’s life has taken him through music\, military service\, academic study\, and extensive spiritual practice. His journey has included opening temples in West and Central Africa and ultimately settling in Alachua\, Florida\, where he continues to teach\, write\, and travel widely to share the principles of bhakti yoga. \nOur conversation explores themes from his recent work on Sambandha\, Abhidheya\, and Prayojana\, unpacking the meaning and lived significance of these foundational concepts. We discuss their philosophical structure\, their internal distinctions\, and how they remain practically relevant in contemporary spiritual life. \nThis is a thoughtful\, exploratory dialogue that moves between biography\, philosophy\, and practice—offering listeners both context and depth. \non Youtube!

SUMMARY:THE PLACE WHERE ALL MYSTICS MEET | The Free Radical Podcast # EP 81 — James Finley 11/04/26
DESCRIPTION:As part of the latest episode of the Free Radical Podcast\, we welcome acclaimed author\, psychologist\, teacher\, and contemplative elder James Finley for a tender exploration of spiritual awakening\, healing\, and the mystery of the human soul. \nA former student of Thomas Merton\, faculty member at Center for Action and Contemplation\, host of the podcast Turning to the Mystics\, and author of The Healing Path and Merton’s Palace of Nowhere\, James Finley joins us for a profound conversation on divine love\, the courage of inner transformation\, and the hidden wisdom found within suffering. Together\, we explore themes of fear and shame\, unconditional acceptance\, fragility\, purpose\, and the paradox of the wound becoming the womb of awakening. \nDrawing from Christian mysticism\, contemplative psychology\, and sacred traditions across cultures\, this episode traces the common thread running through humanity’s deepest spiritual teachings — one truth expressing itself through many symbols\, stories\, and paths. \nThis is not simply a conversation. It is an invitation to sit at the table\, reflect deeply\, and remember what is most essential. \non Youtube! Swami Padmanabha – YouTube \n

SUMMARY:DOES VEDANTA KNOW HOW TO GRIEVE | The Free Radical Podcast # EP 82 — Jaya Jagannatha 11/18/26
DESCRIPTION:In this episode of the Free Radical Podcast\, we sit down with friend\, mentor\, and artist Jaya Jagannatha Prabhu for a deeply reflective and wide-ranging conversation on grief\, emotion\, and healing. \nDescribed by himself\, with characteristic humility\, simply as “Padmanabha Swami’s friend\,” Jaya Jagannatha brings a presence that resists easy definition—one shaped by generosity\, insight\, and lived experience. In this dialogue\, we explore grief not only as personal sorrow\, but as a transformative force that reshapes praise\, presence\, community\, and the way we relate to one another. \nTogether\, we ask: what does it mean to grieve well? How do we create safe spaces to witness and hold emotional truth? And what are the consequences—individually and collectively—of grief left unprocessed? \nFrom intimate emotional landscapes to the broader healing of communities\, this conversation opens into questions of how we listen\, how we feel\, and how we remain present with what is difficult. \nWe invite you to join us at the table. \nListen\, reflect\, and share if the conversation resonates. \non Youtube!
