Spiritual Freedom and Living Well
Imagine it is a starry night, a bit brisk, and you’ve gone for a solo stroll in the darkness. Up ahead, you see a group of people, a mix of ages, different sexes and races, gathered around a real blazer of a campfire–sparks are shooting off of it and rising to the heavens.
You approach, but stand at a distance. Maybe it is out of respect. Maybe out of caution–you don’t know who these freaks are. Maybe it is simply out of desire to continue on your own.
You hear people speak. Some talk about their own stories– their triumphs, their confusion, their pain and their wonder. Some speak the great questions of existence. Some about just living a little better.
You take a seat, because their stories are your stories. Maybe you’ll stay for a bit–not even you know.
One gent seems to be the organizer, the speaker. He speaks the lessons of history. He answers some questions. He asks more.
“How can I be free?”
“How can I feel good?”
“How can my life be better?”
You take a seat because their stories feel like your stories.
Welcome to this podcast. I’m Taoist Master Mikel Steenrod, a lineage holder of the 1,500-year-old 4 Ascendant Sphere Purity Adept School of the Tao. For decades, I’ve been having conversations like these—about ancient wisdom, modern challenges, and practical steps toward a better life. Now, I’m inviting you to join this ongoing dialogue in a way that’s accessible, meaningful, and real.
Take a seat at the fire. Let’s explore together.
