“In hard times, inner changes must precede changes to outer circumstances,” says Michael Meade on a recent interview on KBOO public radio in Portland, OR. Drawing from themes and ideas in his new book “Awakening the Soul”, Meade tells an old story from Egypt of a scribe who struggled to find meaning in a troubled world. The struggle to find the ground of being and awaken from the sleep of the daily world was there in ancient times, just as it can so commonly be found today. Finding the currents of the ancient tale throughout our history, Meade suggests that the greatest challenge has always been the risk of becoming ourselves in a world that is trying to turn us into everyone else. |
