Episode 118: Recovering the Primordial – Part I

June 7, 2015

Today’s talk is from a weekend retreat Reggie co-led with his spiritual brother, the Dagara shaman, Malidoma Somé. Here, Reggie draws upon his training as a religious historian to discuss the alienating movement away from earth based spirituality in the development of the so-called high religions of agricultural civilizations.

This talk was given in 2008 at a weekend retreat in Boulder called African and Tibetan Approaches to Working with the Elements.
