Thank you for joining me on this journey!
I could hear these teachings again and again and again, couldn't you? I truly savor these timeless and profound principles in my life and in my work.
Here is lord Ardhanarishvara ~ the lord that is half divine masculine, half divine feminine, the complete merging of Agni and Soma together as one. Agni and soma, as always, go hand in hand. The knowledge you have gained so far about Agni and Soma can inform your understanding of food and digestion, and the information about food and digestion, I hope, will deepen your understanding of the underlying principles of Agni & Soma. |
