Hello, friends. This is against everyone with Connor Abeeb. This is part two of a short two-part series

offering a spiritual look at how to live now. It's important that you listen to the first part of this

series to get the full picture, but it's also okay to just start here. I know there was a lot of

information in the last one, and there will be in this one too.

But to get the most out of them, listening to them in order and even back to back would be great. Let me just review quickly here what I talked about on that episode. I talked about

how we see the world in terms of our fantasies, which include our anxieties and fears,

and how these fantasies become our projects, whether we realize it or not. To come to a wakefulness

about all of this, it's important to work on yourself and the world at the same time, to be

conscious to a way of working that gives itself to yourself, your own development,

your spiritual development, but also on a lesser level, self-development, and that also gives

itself to the world, that helps the world and others. And to do that without having a radical

split between them, where we lose one when we work on the other.

Then I led us through a backwards viewing exercise or the Rukhshah meditation, and I'll talk

more today about how that's part of doing this multi-layered work. Then we looked at wisdom and destiny in terms of our own lives, mostly using one of the iterations of the spiritual teacher Peter Dunov's pentagram, and how wisdom and destiny are connected.

Then bringing that to the world level, I looked at the world wisdom, the world destiny, even the world karma, in deference to Lachis, one of the three fates.

Lachis is the lady of the lots, the one who measures the thread between the other two fates,

Clotho who unspools the thread and atropos who cuts the thread between the other two fates, Cloto who unspools the thread, and Atropos who cuts the thread.

Finally, we did an exercise created by spiritual artists and former guest of this show, Marco Pogachchnik,

as a way of understanding world changes and what we are facing. Today we'll be looking at what

happens when the wisdom, the destiny of the world meets your personal destiny, and how to navigate

that, how to move with that so that you're working on yourself and also working on the world

at the same time.
