Neil Meekin - The Pool of Life Podcast Special Episode - Lar Dooley - Indigenous Irish Wisdom

Dear friends and followers, it's with deep gratitude and reverence that there is an opportunity to bring to you  this powerful podcast interview with the incredible Lar Dooley R.I.P. who transitioned a couple of weeks ago in the early hours of Monday 8th September at the lunar eclipse.   Lar was to me, like he was many to so many others around the world, a friend, and also an elder, a Brother, a wisdom keeper, a guide, a Father, a partner, a Husband.   He had a huge influence on me on my own journey to my Ancestors and my indigenous Irish spirituality, and on Summer Solstice weekend 2025, while on a pilgrimage, I stayed with Lar for a couple of days at his place in Loughcrew in County Meath, and interviewed him for the Pool of Life podcast.   This is a powerful interview, and particularly raw and vulnerable in parts. It shows the threads of how childhood experiences can shape our life, and the power of initiation, ritual, and how the land shapes us. I also love Lars shared connection to Aotearoa New Zealand and how that manifested later in his life.   Blessings to you Lar, now an Ancestor to us all, may your legacy spread far and wide. It was truly an honour to know you.
