Expanding Into the Soul: Choosing the Vertical Path
from The Soul Horizon
Welcome to season 4 of The Soul Horizon podcast! We're kicking this season off with an episode that lays the foundation for many if not all of the episodes to come this season. We're exploring the concept of spiritual choice and free will. Specifically, the idea of choosing between what's known as the vertical path and the horizontal path. Simply put, walking the vertical path is a soul-led or heart-guided process, whereas walking the horizontal path is a personality or ego-led process. In the words of Zukav (The Seat of the Soul p. 227):When you depend entirely upon the ability of your personality to determine what is best for you, you may stand in the way of a richness that is waiting for you.And this is exactly why committing to the vertical path is so profoundly empowering, enlivening, and expansive.
