このコンテンツについて

The Mystical Positivist, with hosts Stuart Goodnick and Dr. Robert Schmidt, is dedicated to the application of reason in the pursuit of spiritual practice and development. It consists of commentary, book reviews, interviews, and discussion in and around the local and larger spiritual community. The thesis of the show is that rationality is in no way the antithesis of deep mystical experience, in fact, we assert that it is a necessary ally.© 2025 Tayu Meditation Order, Inc. スピリチュアリティ

    This week on The Mystical Positivist, we feature a talk given by hosts Stuart Goodnick and Robert Schmidt at Many Rivers Books & Tea on July 10, 2025. The talk title is The Practice of Patriotism, and the description is as follows: The present moment is fraught with political tension and polarization. Many of us are left wondering what it means to be an American. Spiritual practitioners ask, "what am I called to do in this moment?" Some traditions assert that activism and protest are valid ways to be engaged practitioners. Yet such assertions put the focus on what to do rather than on how to do it. In this talk, Tayu Meditation teachers, Robert Schmidt and Stuart Goodnick, will explore the path to becoming a true American and how the practice of patriotism is less about what actions we take and more about the place within ourselves whence these actions arise. This talk was inspired by an article Stuart Goodnick wrote in 2001 after the Twin Towers fell in New York City. Before commencing with the talk itself, there is the reading of that original article.

    Rob Schmidt and Stuart Goodnick are spiritual teachers with Tayu Meditation Center, co-hosts of The Mystical Positivist podcast, and co-founders of Many Rivers Books & Tea. Tayu Meditation Center, based in Sebastopol, CA, was founded in 1976 by Robert Daniel Ennis. Grounded in the Fourth Way tradition of G.I. Gurdjieff, Tayu practice emphasises conversation be it within ourselves, with others, and between spiritual traditions.

    This week on the show we feature a pre-recorded conversation with Kenan Azam, host of the Potential Paradigms Show. In this discussion, we explore Kenan’s spiritual journey from a secular upbringing in the Pakistani part of Kashmir, to the worlds of academia in Canada and the US, and then through deep engagements with the traditions of Advaita Vedanta, Kashmiri Shaivism, and Sufism. His path reflects the ancient hermetic maxim, 'As above so below' — with its profound implications for one's journey through life, as well as for the various technologies of travel, both inner and outer!

    Kenan Azam is a contemplative explorer who transitioned from technology to the study of consciousness and ancient wisdom. He hosts the Potential Paradigms Show, creating thoughtful dialogues on emerging consciousness. Through StarGate Labs, he explores how cross-cultural wisdom traditions reveal us as living doorways of cosmic exploration.

    This week on the show we feature a pre-recorded conversation with Neil Douglas-Klotz about his latest book, The Aramaic Jesus Book of Days – 40 Days of Contemplation and Revelation, published this year by Hampton Roads. This latest volume offers new translations from Jesus’ native language in the form of a meditation a day, an oracle, or a guide for a 40-day retreat. Through expansions of Aramaic’s multiple meanings as well as guided contemplations, The Aramaic Jesus Book of Days provides a guide to transformation through the way of the prophet. It shows how the deepest teachings of Jesus address contemporary challenges, such as our relationships with nature and each other, as well as the purpose of life itself.

    In short chapters, the book takes up life themes you’re facing and offers meditations to address them. Each chapter is introduced with a short saying and keyword of Jesus, heard with “Aramaic ears,” and then proceeds to show how this applies to a life issue today. This book offers a unique perspective on Jesus’s teachings that can help you to connect with them on a deeper level and live a more authentic, fulfilling, and compassionate life.

    Neil Douglas-Klotz is an internationally known scholar in the fields connecting religious studies (comparative Semitic hermeneutics) and psychology as well as a poet and musician. He is the author of Revelations of the Aramaic Jesus, Prayers of the Cosmos, and The Hidden Gospel and coauthor of The Tent of Abraham with Sister Joan Chittister and Rabbi Arthur Waskow. He is the past chair of the Mysticism Group of the American Academy of Religion.
