    The Cosmic Seed

    Today on Sense of Soul we have Lalania Simone, she is a multi-faceted author, artist, and mystic devoted to a path of liberation and awakening. Her early questioning of religious dogma launched her lifelong spiritual journey. She has lived in and experienced both the grit and soul of cities such as San Diego, Denver, and Brooklyn. The fusion of Lalania's esoteric knowledge and her experience in urban society creates a unique Urban Soul Warrior perspective. She understands the power of frequency and is dedicated to raising the vibration of the planet. Lalania is the creatrix of Tarot of the Cosmic Seed, the Oracle of Awakening and the upcoming Wise Earth Medicine Tarot. She also creates sacred crystal talismans to amplify particular energies. She is the author of Urban Soul Warrior: Self Mastery in the Midst of the Metropolis, a book written with the intention to make spiritual concepts accessible. Lalania is one of the co-owners of Alchemy Ritual Goods- a metaphysical store in Denver, which offers Ancestral Medicine Clinic, a sliding scale clinic offering multiple modalities dedicated to healing and spiritual liberation. In an effort to decolonize the tarot, remove outdated ideas of hierarchy, and shift ingrained gender norms, Lalania, founder of Alchemy Ritual Goods, has created a lush and vibrant deck with unique imagery and symbolism and an array of people and cultures. Having renamed the royalty cards—including the Hierophant, Emperor, Empress, and the court cards—Lalania has expanded their interpretation into energy signatures rather than personality types. The result is a deeply diverse spiritual tool, a bridge to the mysterious and the esoteric, as well as a guide to the everyday. Using the Rider-Waite-Smith tradition as a foundation, this deck offers a twist: there is a twenty-third card added to the Major Arcana—The Cosmic Seed, a representative of us all as infinite, cosmic spirits, enmeshed in sacred flesh for a time on this Earth. https://cosmicseedstudio.com www.senseofsoulpodcast.com

He had chosen a university where he received  a full scholarship for running. And, he had an injury that prevented him from running. He suffered greatly. And that suffering took its toll.  In 2014 Ben began showing signs of late-onset schizophrenia. It was a frightening and confusing time where he had frequent catatonic episodes and bursts of anger. The suicide attempts began soon after and in 2015 Ben's schizophrenia took its toll when Ben ended his earthly life, and Ben and Jamie's relationship transitioned to a non-physical one.  Jamie turned to hwe spiritual practices and began a written conversation with Ben. Their first year of correspondence is published in Jamie and Ben's book "Our Forever Ben, one mon's letters to her son-in-spirit and his poetic replies." Jamie's writing was a great source of comfort to her.  Jamie's other source of comfort through her grieving process was her growing practice of EFT tapping.  Because EFT helped her so much, she decided to become skilled and certified by choosing the best mentors in the field, Alina Frank and Craig Weiner. She earned her certification in EFT in 2019 through EFT International.   Jamie's been a mentor and a teacher her entire life. In 2021 Jamie earned her certificate in Grief and Death Studies from the Center for Life Transitions in Fort Collins, Colorado, honing her skills as a grief companion.  Jamie's sessions have immediate impact.

    Finding the I AM Within

    Today returning on Sense of Soul we have Padma Aon Prakasha he is an evolutionary catalyst and wisdom author bringing together ancient wisdom and modern science. Padma’s books, music and multimedia are drawn from the traditions he has been initiated into. His books include: The Power of Shakti, Womb Wisdom, Sacred Relationships (Inner Traditions), The Christ Blueprint, The Nine Eyes of Light: Ascension Keys from Egypt (NAB/Random House), Dimensions of Love, Shiva's Hologram: The Maheshwara Sutra and The Science of Sound (O Books). Since 1997 he has presented, lectured and taught in 20 countries worldwide.  After being initiated into the Brahmin lineage at age 4, he read the Bhagavad Gita followed by the Bible at age 7 and a whole host of spiritual teachings by age 11. When he was 21 he had an experience of the AUM and God Consciousness that changed his life forever, followed by a direct and unexpected meeting with Christ Yeshua. Shortly after this, Padma was initiated in India through a Near Death Experience in Badrinath by Master Babaji, and into the Saivite Lineage in Kedarnath. Further Initiations into Saivite Tantra and the RK Veda through the Arunachala Sampradaya and Ganesha followed. Padma was also Initiated into Tibetan Tantras through female teachers Prem Prabhuta and Margot Anand, and is an Initiate in the Order of Melchizedek. Padma’s most powerful ‘formal’ Initiations came through Sri Om, an Awakened teacher in London from the Lineage of Buddha Maitreya, associated with the enlightened wisdom of many traditions. After this, Padma sat in Samadhi, the highest form of bliss meditation, for two months, 16 hours a day. Samadhi activates the pineal gland and many dormant gifts within us, which Padma then demonstrated through his numerous books, workshops and transmissions over the ensuing years. https://padmaaon.com Visit www.senseofsoulpodcast.com
