059 - Essence to Essence–How Awakening Impacts Marriage: Mukti, Part 1

When I first imagined launching our podcast, there was one particular couple I would fantasize about interviewing almost daily. And that was Mukti and Adyashanti. For those of you who don’t know these two, Mukti and Adya are both very well known spiritual teachers, and they also happen to be married–which as you can imagine, makes them like catnip to me. I eventually got the courage to ask them onto the show. Adya said no, and Mukti said yes! I usually only record couples, but I couldn’t pass up interviewing one half of my fantasy couple. So I took the train down to see her, and this interview is the result.  We covered all my favorite topics in this interview: fear, love, marriage, the idea of completeness, conflict, and even the myth of enlightenment. You’ll have to wait until Thursday to hear Mukti’s thoughts on love and intimacy. But trust me, it’s worth the wait. If you would like to learn more about Mukti or her teachings, you can find her at http://www.adyashanti.org/index.php?file=mukti_teachings In other news, we’re launching a radio show based on the podcast, and we’re looking for questions from listeners about relationships.
