He Got Pulled Out of his Body and Became God

I had Gareth Duignam on the show, and this conversation went places I didn’t expect... in all the best ways. It flowed, and that to me is my favorite kind of convo!

He works with what he describes as the Mother Force / Kundalini energy, and he hosts free live meditations every week that I’ve personally sat in on. They’re powerful, simple, and you can do it from home. I genuinely recommend checking them out.

In this episode, we talk openly about out-of-body experiences, awakening, Kundalini, fear, consciousness, past lives, and what it actually means to be a human wiht all this AI nonsense going on.

Topics covered:

Gareth’s first out-of-body experiences and how they completely changed his understanding of life
My own OBE journey and what happens when the “jet engine” kicks in
What awakening really is (and what it isn’t)
Kundalini explained in a grounded, nervous-system-based waS
Why forcing spiritual experiences can be dangerous
Fear, disembodied beings, and why fear is the real doorway
Past lives, parallel lives, and the question: what do you actually do with this information?
The human experience as the point—not the escape
AI, consciousness, and whether technology dulls or accelerates awakening
Why meditation doesn’t feel like anything at first—and why that changes

If this episode made you feel anything.... curious, unsettled, seen, I’d love to hear from you in the comments. And as always, if you have someone you think I should talk to next, that’s how most of these conversations start.

Thanks for being here. Truly.
