Listen "17. The Rise and Fall of Civilizations | What It Teaches Us About Our Own Spiritual Journey"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I’m sharing my recent deep dive into the fascinating history of great civilizations and how their rise and fall parallels what we’re experiencing in today’s world.
I’ve been captivated by how empires throughout history have crumbled after becoming too focused on wealth and decadence. As heavy as this topic might seem, there’s something valuable in reflecting on it, especially when we think about our own spiritual journey and how much we’re tied to the material world.
I talk about my own “rabbit hole” of learning and how it’s made me question society’s obsession with material success. Despite having more technology and wealth than ever before, many of us still feel disconnected and unfulfilled. My takeaway from all this? We need to reconnect with our spiritual side and remember that our energy and spirit are eternal. True fulfillment comes from that deeper connection, not from the things we accumulate in this life.
Key Takeaways:
Civilizations tend to fall when they become too focused on wealth and lose sight of their deeper purpose.
We’re facing similar issues today—plenty of material success but a growing sense of discontent.
The importance of reconnecting with our spiritual essence for lasting peace and fulfillment.
True success isn’t about material wealth, but about living in alignment with a higher purpose and being of service to others.
I end the episode with a reflection on Matthew 6:19-21, encouraging us to focus on what really matters and “store up treasures in heaven.”
