Matt Murphy here. I've been on a long break from making podcast content, largely due to taking on a management role at a job for a big company. But, that's been on a steady maintenance roll for a while now, so I thought I'd come back to making this content for any listeners I still have. Good to be back.

Should yoga philosophy teachers be perfect yogic saints? Should they be flawless (or act like it, anyway)? Or should they own their flaws? And is the Yogic philosophy the only lens and spiritual toolbox they are allowed?
-
What biographical details can help one reconnect with powerful creativity? What parts of daily life, what investment in disciplined activities, and what essential relationships or prospects allow us to reconnect with a previously powerful supply of creativity and production?
-
Shame is a bad and toxic emotion to be avoided... right? Or is there something else to shame, which we evolved for a reason? Can we realign a sense of shame as a useful tool that helps our aim, or is it all just so much psychological waste to be discarded?
-
Social Media has contributed (among other things) a new widespread use of terms to describe others as "toxic", but what does this ultimately mean for personal responsibility and expansion of one's own capabilities and consciousness?
-
In spiritual circles, we often encounter expressions that put material things and spiritual essences at odds... but is it really that simple? Above and beyond the fact that material currency and objects help us survive so that we can have a spiritual experience in the first place?
-
Have you ever experienced major life-changes, which made you re-arrange (or temporarily pause) some of the largest experiential puzzle pieces of yourself? How does one manage the transition, or consciously redesign the formula when starting it all again?

Yoga is supposed to be something one takes off the mat, and I try my best do Karma Yoga at my IT job. It requires more empathy than is generally credited to those in my field, but that differentiation is a powerful and redeeming way of consciously working and serving for most of my waking hours during the work week. How does one practice dharma-focused action on the job?

Part 3 of 3: I’m making use of my podcast for my current class of Yoga Teacher Trainees (I teach yogic philosophy, history, etc) to help prepare them for the written exam at the end of the course. However, I think this stuff is interesting to others as well, if they are at all into yoga or Eastern philosophy and the like.

This is another re-wrapping of some of my course material about the Bhagavad Gita, which I usually teach to Yoga Teacher Training students. This episode combines two context-related topics: authorship of the Gita, as well as its historical contexts and the greater Mahabharata story context from which the Gita is an exploded chapter.

I'm continuing my series on Bhagavad Gita reading guide materials, both for my current students and the generally interested audience out there. This one focuses on clarifying some of the terms used to describe divinity and divine beings mentioned in the Gita, which are notoriously difficult for new readers to disentangle... especially given translation quirks.
