FAR OUT: Adventures in Returning Home

FAR OUT #79 ~ Via negativa: the road to the good life

Episode Summary

On this episode we talk about the ancient art of the negative way, and how removing things has been a major part of the life we live today. We explore why this approach which has been commonly used in wisdom traditions to approach God, is also an effective and practical way for approaching your ideal life---whatever that is. It might seem strange to suggest that such a negative approach might lead to major positive change. It's certainly not what our mainstream culture would have us believe. In the second half of the show, Alasdair and Julie-Roxane share some of the big and small things they've given up over the last ten years. You might be surprised!
