The Western Baul Podcast Series features talks by practitioners of the Western Baul path. Topics are intended to offer something of educational, inspirational, and practical value to anyone drawn to the spiritual path. For Western Bauls, practice is not a matter of philosophy but is expressed in everyday affairs, service to others, and music and song. There is the recognition that all spiritual traditions have examples of those who have realized that there is no separate self to substantiate—though one will always exist in form—and that “There is only God” or oneness with creation. Western Bauls, as named by Lee Lozowick (1943-2010), an American spiritual Master who taught in the U.S., Europe, and India and who was known for his radical dharma, humor, and integrity, are kin to the Bauls of Bengal, India, with whom he shared an essential resonance and friendship. Lee’s spiritual lineage includes Yogi Ramsuratkumar and Swami Papa Ramdas. Contact us: westernbaul.org/contact

Working with confirmation bias, the tendency to look for validation of our worldview, involves examining assumptions we make about ourselves and reality and the inclination to seek, interpret, and remember information which confirms our particular perspective. But the spiritual traditions point to an underlying Organic Innocence or openness to life and the possibilities that lie beyond our own biases. We can learn to be vigilant and courageous and to step outside the limits we have created to have a deeper experience of the world. Bandhu Dunham is author of Creative Life and an internationally recognized glass artist and teacher.
