The Nature Of The Ground - Part One

In this episode of Mystican Identity, Phoenix delves into the concept of the Divine Ground, the ultimate source of all being, as explored through various spiritual traditions. Drawing from Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, and the profound insights of female mystics like Julian of Norwich, St. Teresa of Ávila, and Hildegard of Bingen, we discuss how the divine Ground is both transcendent and immanent—beyond form yet present within all things. We explore mystical experiences that point to the unity of the divine Ground, from Meister Eckhart’s visions of oneness with God to Ramana Maharshi’s realization of the Self as Brahman, and even the Tao as the way of life.

This episode also highlights the personal and accessible nature of the divine Ground, offering practical insights for connecting with it in daily life through mindfulness, meditation, and reflection. Whether through quiet moments of stillness or the love we share with others, we can all experience the divine Ground in our own way.
