How To Always See The Good In Others | The New Millennium Episode | Spiritual Awakening and Mindful Living | Ep.16

Sri Chinmoy predicted that the new millennium will see the birth of a new age of spirituality and consciousness, replacing our outdated materialist paradigms. In this episode we dive deep into Sri Chinmoy's philosophy for the new millennium, which emphasizes on only seeing the good in others. The ultimate aim being spiritual oneness and tangible inner growth.

Spirit Matters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ is a show that helps you integrate a spiritual awakening experience into your daily life. We take you beyond the confusion, frustration and spiritual loneliness to a grounded practice centred in heart-based wisdom.

As is our wont, we also explore other topics and look at the origins of life and consciousness, the arguments for Intelligent Design and the role of the unseen Creator in the creation. Then we tie this back to the birth of the new millennium and what this means for our current development and spiritual evolution.

In this episode:

* we examine why pessimistic stories (like the Y2K bug and the 2012 doomsday scenario) spread so easily yet can be safely ignored

* we explore the three modes of Intelligent Design

* we offer spiritual tips on how not to judge others, but to feel one with humanity

We invite you to boldly step into the new millennium with a mindset of oneness, service, and conscious optimism—one small act of light at a time.
