Joseph Selbie

On this episode, Laura Chandler talks with Joseph Selbie, author of Break Through the Limits of the Brain. In this fascinating conversation, they explore the intersection of the Divine and Neuroscience.

A dedicated Kriya yoga meditator for nearly fifty years, Joseph has taught yoga, meditation, and universal experiential spirituality throughout the US and Europe. He is a founding member of Ananda, a spiritual community and movement inspired by the teachings of the spiritual master, Yogananda, and was a founder and the CEO of Tristream, an early pioneer in experience design for the web.

On today's episode, Laura Chandler is joined by writer, empath, and one of the foremost spiritual channels of our time, Paul Selig. Paul has just released his latest channeled book, Beyond the Known: Realization, which is the 6th in a series described as a "program for personal and planetary evolution as humankind awakens to its own divine nature." In this episode, Paul explains his relationship to the guides, the process of channeling, and shares insights from the guides about the new book. Paul received his Master's Degree from Yale and served on the faculty of NYU for over 25 years. A spiritual experience in 1987 left him clairvoyant. Deepak Chopra describes his work as, "authentic, straightforward truth straight from the source field." His breakthrough works of channeled literature – including I Am the Word, The Book of Mastery, and The Book of Truth – have quickly become the most important and celebrated expression of channeling since A Course in Miracles rose to prominence in the 1970s.
