Description

The aim of the series is to look at the work of prophets, poets, mystics, and philosophers throughout the ages whose teachings have focused on our divine, or spiritual, reality. The latter is given short shrift in a materialistic age, but humanity has a deep spiritual heritage. Episodes are designed to reveal insights that you can apply to your daily lives. No new episodes will be posted after 2021, but all recordings can be accessed at www.thesoulsalons.com (Music is used with permission by Randy Armstrong, The Conference of the Birds CD) .
