A Shaman and a Monk Walk Into a Bar ... Or Is It You?

The author, a shaman named Jon Rasmussen, discusses the similarities between the lives of monks and shamans, both of whom dedicate themselves to serving the greater good. He describes his own journey, which involved a period of living as a monk and then a period of more conventional pursuits. Rasmussen concludes that while he has experienced both joy and pain in life, his choices to serve the greater good have brought him greater happiness. He also explains that people who choose a path of pure service often have unique characteristics and experiences that may be misunderstood by those who follow more conventional lifestyles.Support the showMore information and videos about Jon's work can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@JonRasmussen and https://thesoulalgorithm.com/sessions .
