In our conversation with Todd Allen, we explore Ho'oponopono, the Hawaiian practice of forgiveness and reconciliation, alongside the deeper meanings of Agape and Kuleana. Todd explains how Ho'oponopono’s mantra—"I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you"—facilitates emotional healing and spiritual clarity. We also discuss Agape, the highest form of unconditional love, and its role in fostering deep connection and compassion. Additionally, we examine Kuleana, the Hawaiian concept of responsibility and sacred duty, highlighting how personal accountability plays a vital role in healing, harmony, and living in alignment with one's purpose.

Luminous Emptiness

Welcome back to Seekers and Finders Podcast, where we explore the mysteries of consciousness, the nature of spirituality, and the many paths that lead to enlightenment. Today, we’re honored to have a truly special guest—author, speaker, and transformational coach, Irene Kendig. Her work dives deep into the nature of consciousness, and the boundless potential for awakening that exists within each of us.
In this episode, we’ll be exploring the concept of Luminous Emptiness—a phrase that might sound paradoxical at first, but one that holds profound meaning in the spiritual journey. What does it mean to dissolve into the vast, radiant space of being? How does understanding the nature of emptiness free us from fear, suffering, and limitation? And what insights can we gain from those who have crossed the threshold of life and death?
Irene brings a wealth of wisdom to this conversation, offering perspectives that challenge conventional thinking and invite us into a deeper, more expansive understanding of existence. So, if you’re ready to explore the nature of consciousness and the liberating power of spiritual awareness, stay tuned—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

Maryanna Hemming once sought enlightenment with restless curiosity, absorbing the guru’s teaching like an aspiring flame. Through years of discipline, doubt, and revelation, she learned that true wisdom unfolds in stillness as much as in seeking. Now, with quiet confidence and deep presence, she embodies the practice, no longer searching—only being.

Harry Rob Bruner’s spiritual journey is a significant aspect of his life and creative work. In his solo show, Nephew of the Universe, Bruner delves into his experiences growing up within a renowned spiritual organization that his family helped establish. His aunt played a pivotal role in bringing the guru Sri Chinmoy to America, leading to the formation of a worldwide spiritual movement. Bruner’s performance offers a heartfelt and, at times, whimsical narrative of his twenty years in this Queens, New York-based meditation group. He candidly shares the challenges he faced, including the struggle with celibacy”a condition of discipleship”and his internal conflict between spiritual commitments and personal desires, such as his ambition to become a rock star. The show combines music, visuals, and storytelling to provide insight into his unique upbringing and the complexities of balancing spiritual life with personal aspirations.

Alice Ethna Herron's doctoral thesis, "Godless Mystics: Atheists and Their Mystical Experiences – Towards a Grounded Theory," explores the occurrence of mystical experiences among atheists. By employing grounded theory methodology, Herron examines how individuals without religious beliefs interpret and integrate these profound experiences into their secular worldviews. Her research contributes to a deeper understanding of spirituality outside traditional religious frameworks.

“Music, how and why it can pull you out of a normal day to day consciousness into something more profound and timeless.”

Phil recently moved from Seattle, a town where he'd lived since 1990 (which was the dawn of Seattle-born grunge!), and a town he swore he'd never leave, to the much smaller Port Townsend on the Olympic Peninsula, about 2 1/2 hours away. Turns out Port Townsend's music scene, while smaller and slightly less prestigious than Seattle's, is vibrant and active and much more accessible. Currently he's playing cello with the local orchestra, and also playing fusion with local musicians. As well as his ongoing work on guitar supporting a young singer in Mexico City. He is also a self-proclaimed cello-sticker mogul.
He can be heard on The Mahavishnu Orchestra’s albums Apocalypse and Visions of the Emerald Beyond
