Description
Shane gives an account of his spiritual journey and experiences along the Amrita Mandala path from initial awakening in 2017 to first stage of Buddhahood / perfect realisation of emptiness over one and a half years ago in September 2021 (this episode recorded Thursday 23rd March 2023).
Shane also shares his insights about the samsaric self and its mechanism, how it works and how to work with it in practice rather than against it. And traps that might occur on the path, which we need to be aware of. In the end, there are accounts of what happens after emptiness realization, how one begins the purification of the physical cells and what experiences and insights that might entail.
