Welcome to a place where we'rethinking together and thinking
deeper about who we are and whatwe do in this world. Welcome to
the Billosophy podcast.
Hello, and welcome to Billosophy101. Many of you have been
wondering, Where is Billosophy101, been on quite a hiatus as
(00:29):
the world around changed and theWorld Within me changed. And I
want you to know, I'm stillhere. So this is the preview of
what is to come season three ofBillosophy 101. In season three,
I will be dedicating everything,everything possible to the
(00:54):
healing practices, healing isnecessary. And the journey I
have been on for the last coupleof years has been amazing. Now
that is to say that I wasn'till, and I wasn't broken, yet I
(01:14):
found healing to be necessary.
And that's what I will get intoduring this season's podcasts.
So let me back up a little bit,you may hear some strange noises
for this recording. And that isbecause I am recording outside
in the forest. And there iswind, there are birds singing,
(01:35):
there are other noiseshappening, sounds and songs that
are the voice of the forest. Andbeing within the forest and
being in the forest being amongthe forest. And being with
family is a part of my healingprocess. I will begin with an
episode on death. And I willshare with you a death process
(02:05):
that I went through. As youknow, in the previous episodes
of the Billosophy 101 podcast,it was hosted by me and I
introduced myself as WilliamForchion. During this season, I
will be introducing myself asDjeli. And what I will share
(02:28):
with you is the process of, ofloving William and letting
William go. So that Djeli couldemerge. It may sound strange,
maybe some of you are with me.
Maybe some of you havequestions. And hopefully, those
(02:50):
questions will be answered.
Hopefully there'll be insightgiven. And hopefully, there'll
be some curiosity evoked thatwill encourage you to tune in
and not check out. I will alsosay that, for me, this process
has been absolutely amazing, andterrifying, and painful. And
(03:14):
joyous all at once. Andsometimes each one of those
individually at their highestpoints and peaks and densities
and dimensions. Within thisseason's podcast, as I explore
healing, and modalities ofhealing, which will be from art,
(03:37):
to plant medicine, to I don'teven know all the ones that will
emerge. And hopefully, you thelistener will take part in the
creation of this season. Withyour input with your suggestions
with your curiosity, we can goon this journey together in the
(03:59):
Billosophy 101 podcast and theways that you can engage in that
are through email atBillosophy101 at gmail.com. You
can also become a subscriber onPatreon. Patreon subscribers
start at $2 per month. And thispodcast is completely funded,
(04:25):
created produced by me. So yourpatronage helps in making this
possible. It helps because thereare costs that do incur in the
creation of a podcast. There'spodcast hosting fees, there are
music clearance rights. Thereare artists fees who are on the
(04:48):
show as guests also as atranscription fees, research
fees that, that all are actuallyreal and tangible. And the end
result hopefully, is the podcastthat draws you in, and keeps you
(05:08):
in and brings you back and asksyou to return and invites you in
to becoming a family member,part of the Billosophy 101
family. And I do mean that, aswith the change in or the
recognition in who I am, asDjeli, I also recognize,
recognize how I've had to showup in the world, or how I've
(05:32):
believed I've had to show up inthe world, presenting as a cis
gendered brown skin, heteromale. And embracing that there
is so much more to me. Andtherefore letting that show
(05:55):
through what I do, and who I am,and how I radiate in the world.
And part of that radiance isthis resonance. And I do hope
that this resonance resonateswith you. And if it does, please
share it, pass it along. Becausethere will be something new,
(06:18):
just as I recognize this healingpath. I recognize what death and
dying actually is. And pleaseaccept that that death that I
accepted to become, and to allowDjeli to emerge happens
regularly, each and every night.
(06:42):
I go to sleep, and I put me inthe grave. Yeah, there's a deep
sigh there, I put me in thatgrave for that day is done and
that life is done. And I wake upa new each and every morning.
And I manifest within that day,that which I need to bring to
(07:05):
this world, all of thisinformation that will come out.
And all the connections that Imake through this podcast, with
you, with the guests that are onthe show are all necessary, all
necessary for this path. Andhopefully, as you join in,
you'll see our paths align for amoment. And you'll recognize the
(07:27):
necessity on your path. And Ialso want to thank some of the
folks that were encouragingalong this way, they may not
have known that they were doingit explicitly. I am very
thankful for the psychedelicleadership podcast. Laura Dawn
(07:48):
has done is doing an amazingthing with that podcast, Joshua
Schrei's, the Emerald podcasthas also been such a living part
of my life in its resonance. Andthe third one that's really,
that I run to return to over andover again, is the science and
non duality podcast, you mayfind it as SAND as a nd and each
(08:15):
of those has had a reallyprofound resonance in my journey
in my living, and in my death,and I won't harp on that
anymore, much more the deathpart, because there are some of
you who have differentrelationships with death, as I
did for many, many years. And,and, and part of that is
(08:37):
honoring where I am in my stageof life. And that is that I am
an apprentice elder. I am movinginto my elder hood. And an
important part of recognizingthat is that there are very few
stages left before becoming anancestor. And some people don't
(09:00):
even make it to the elder stagebefore they become ancestor. And
so this is a recognition of, ofnecessity for sending this
resonance into the universe. Andfor connecting. One thing that I
have recognized is that we areeach other's medicine. And if I
(09:26):
am not to share my resonancewith you, I am not sharing my
medicine with you. And also inturn when you connect with me,
whether it's via email, whetherit's through comments, whether
it's through Patreonsubscription, that is how we
share medicine, each other'smedicine, each other's
(09:46):
resonance, each other's powerand purpose and passion. And so,
in the past, when I've signedoff, I've signed off, move
forward with purpose and passionAnd I believe that I will hold
true to this with signing off inthe future and I will also add,
(10:07):
we are each other's medicine.
And what I can hope for you andfor myself is that we be as
potent medicine as we can be, Iwant to make it clear that this
is an interactive process. So,the coming episodes can be
(10:33):
suggested and led by thelisteners because that is a part
of the healing process for somethe healing is being heard. For
some the healing is speaking forsome the healing and it comes in
many different ways. Yet theprocess of healing is necessary.
(10:56):
And if you are to accept thatyou can interchange healing for
living. When you say I amliving, you're saying I'm
healing and the healing processis an ongoing thing and when you
say I am healing, then yourecognize I am becoming for as
(11:18):
soon as we solidify into what weare. What more is there? I
encourage you, I asked shouldyou be called to check out
season three of the Billosophy101 podcast so that we can
(11:39):
engage in the becoming processtogether. Thank you and I look
forward to connecting with youfurther. This is the Billosophy
101 podcast and I am Djeli. Moveforward with passion and
purpose. And remember, we areeach other's medicine
