Deborah Eden Tull, lovingly known as Eden, joins Refractive with the message of embracing the shadow self. She encourages linsteners to see our inner darkness as sacred and perfect, a necessary part of the whole of creation rather than as a defect. Eden shares her journey of awakening, including 7 years as a Zen Buddhist monk and decades of leaning towards unconditional love, healing, and self-acceptance. Her book, Luminous Darkness, distinguishes between the evil, coloquially synonymous with “darkness,” and a broader concept of luminous or regenerative darkness. She discusses a range of impactful topics such as fierce compassion, moving beyond duality, the healing and sacred nature of darkness (physically and metaphysically), and the path to endarkenment, what Eden calls the path to unconditional love of self and of all.
