In all my years podcasting and working with the great masters of our time, I have never seen anything like this. Paul Selig is channeling information from who he calls “The Guides” and Rebbe Gafni is transmitting the deep lineage of Solomon and Kabbalist wisdom. What do they agree about? Where are the points of distinction and separation? In this shocking convergence, we see how the old Word of the Biblical texts meets the new Word freshly informed from extra-dimensional star beings. This is a conversation not to be missed!

How many relationships do you know that are truly inspiring? For many people my relationship with my wife Vylana is one of those unions. But it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. In this radically vulnerable podcast we disclose for the first time the details of our own crisis of separation, and how we came back stronger than ever with the help of Rebbe Marc Gafni and his blueprints for the future of relationships. How do you overcome jealousy? How do you resolve conflict? Why are so many people choosing between deadness or dishonesty? What is ‘donkey smuggling’ and how does this prevent intimacy in communication? For anyone interested in diving deeper on relationships with Vylana and I, check out our Romantically Fit masterclass offered through Fit For Service.

This week we explore the depths of Kabbalah, unique self, and Eros with renowned philosopher Marc Gafni. He begins by defining the foundational concepts of Kabbalah, setting the stage for an exploration of the interplay between masculine and feminine energies that shape our reality. He introduces the profound symbol of the Tree of Life and its relevance to personal mastery. As he describes each piece of the 11 stories in the Tree of Life, the discussion unfolds to encompass the realms of imagination, understanding, and the balance between love and boundaries, highlighting the beauty of contradictions and the coexistence of joy amidst life's challenges. He then describes the concept of unique self, an understanding of self that transcends the misconceptions of both Western and Eastern traditions. He describes how you can use this knowledge to unlock your true purpose in the world. As the episode progresses, we delve into how Eros can serve as a portal to deepening intimacy, and ultimately heal our disconnected world. Whether you’re well-versed in Kabbalah or just starting your spiritual exploration, this episode offers valuable insights to inspire you to embrace your unique self and deepen your relationships.

Gafni is playing a pivotal role in evolving a new dharma or meta-theory of meaning overflowing with heart — a new set of distinctions that is helping to re-shape key pivoting points in global consciousness and culture. Gafni’s doctorate is from Oxford University with a masters degree from Bar Ilan University. He holds an orthodox rabbinic certification from the Chief Rabbinate in Israel and non-denominational rabbinic ordination. He is the author of forty books, of which only the first twelve have been published, including the award-winning Your Unique Self: The Radical Path to Personal Enlightenment.

When it was recommended that I do a podcast with Rabbi Dr. Marc Gafni, I knew nothing about him. I dove straight into his body of work and my life will never be the same. This is perhaps the most paradigm shifting podcast I have ever recorded. It tells the tale of the greatest love story of all–the story of the cosmo-erotic universe Herself. In this paradigm shifting masterclass, we learn how a force he calls Eros is the fundamental substrate of creation all the way down to the first principles of subatomic matter. Gafni’s wisdom stretches back deep into the secrets of the Temple of Solomon and the mystic Kabbalist tradition. Our conversation touches a wide range of topics, including the nature of the Goddess, the democratization of enlightenment, and rewriting our sexual narratives. I would be remiss if I did not mention that following the recording of this podcast, I became aware of allegations against him that have populated the internet. In subsequent intimate conversations with him, and after checking out the sources that refute the claims here (including polygraphs and independent investigations) I can say that for what it is worth, I trust him. There is a cognitive bias that leads us to believe that in a situation like this ‘the truth is somewhere in the middle’. And while this is sometimes the case, sometimes it is not the case. What I can say with certainty is that his wisdom is timeless and important for the healing of our world, and that no person should be punished forever, especially without a trial. We intend to discuss his personal story on a follow up podcast toward the end of the year. This note aside, this conversation is in every sense of the word, MIND BLOWING. For more from Gafni, check out his masterpiece of a book A Return To Eros | https://amzn.to/3icuDRo Addendum: There is a cognitive bias that leads us to believe that in a situation like this ‘the truth is somewhere in the middle’, or ‘where there is smoke, there is fire’. And while this is sometimes the case, sometimes it is not. What I can say with certainty is that his wisdom is timeless and important for the healing of our world. No person should be “canceled” forever, especially without a fair forum to deploy evidence to refute claims that may be false or distorted. How we gather information and judge is the essence of our society. In light of this, we intend to discuss his personal story and associated meta-theory on a follow up podcast toward the end of the year. Until then, if you don’t wish to dive into the evidence yourself to make an informed judgment, perhaps afford yourself the gift of leaving an open question mark about the man, and receiving just his words without bias.

What is the wisdom of the Temple of Solomon that has been hidden for over 3000 years? The Hebrew Wisdom sage, leading world philosopher, my teacher, Dr. Marc Gafni, has been on a quest to decipher these texts like the Da Vinci Code, and the evolution of the secrets revealed may be exactly what is necessary to deliver us from the existential threats we face today.   For more on the wisdom from the Solomon lineage, and a deeper understanding of the cosmo-erotic universe, check out the book: ⁠A Return to Eros by Marc Gafni and Kristina Kincaid.  ⁠ #solomon #ancientwisdom #eros Time Stamps: 00:00- Intro 2:00- The Lineage Of The Temple Of Solomon 17:00- Totalitarianism, Invisible Controllers, AI, Dystopia 41:12- Downloading The Temple Of Solomon 1:05:33- Understanding Eros More Deeply 1:17:50- Desire, Will, & The Name Of God 1:33:53- The Feminine Desire & Pleasure 1:40:55- Paganism, Eros And Ethics 1:53:34- What Actions Can We Take?

On Saturday March 25, I discovered that my dad had died. As the intimate universe would have it, the tender and powerful @marcgafni (a Rabbi turned cosmo-erotic humanist mystic) was with me when my father was discovered. After four days of us sitting “shiva house” in mourning and celebration of the passing of my dad, I am utterly in awe. These days have been some of the most magical, miraculous, painful, and beautiful days of my life. This podcast may be the most important and vulnerable thing I have ever offered. It’s what Michael Phillips Marcus would have wanted. Marc and I have been combining all of our human tenderness with elements of our respective mastery to co-create an evolutionary week of mourning, celebration, and ceremony. While many aspects of the Hebrew shiva tradition have been maintained, the practice has been evolved and adapted for this unique situation to include shamanic medicine ceremonies and the psychotech of the Shabbat table. Ultimately the purpose of this is to evoke the blessing of the father, and to assist him in his journey into wholeness in the life beyond life. And then to open source this process to the community and the world. This live stream conversation with the Fit For Service community is both intensely personal and universal, raw, and refined. It is the highest blessing to my father, that his passing is bringing the deepest revealing connections with everyone who knew and loved him, and that hopefully these stories and the wisdom they contain will touch some of you.
