Two Paths Up the Mountain: Meditation & Self-Inquiry – Ben Smith & Simon Mundie
About this episode
Many Practices, One Presence.
Ben Smith started meditating aged six. I came to spiritual inquiry later. In this conversation, we explore the different paths we've taken — his through years of dedicated meditation, mine through self-inquiry and emotional integration.
We talk about powerful experiences, awakening, the real purpose of spiritual practice, and how it all boils down to living with love, presence and humility. Two different routes up the same mountain.
