GoOD Friends w/ Rainn Wilson - The Notorious G.O.D. and The Internal Condition of Communion

In this episode of GoOD Friends, spiritual revolutionary Rainn Wilson sits down with Nikki to share about finding The Sacred in the day-to-day-- defining 'sacred' not as a place or thing, but as a condition-- an internal one of communion, and of holding Divine Light. He shares about everything from his Baha'i faith, to what God means to him, to how he prays, to Sacred root canals, Holy pilgrimages, and his spiritual practice during his time playing Dwight Schrute on 'The Office'. Finally, he guides us into the Unknowable Essence with a powerful meditation. Get 'Soul Boom: Why We Need a Spiritual Revolution ' by Rainn Wilson (Nikki's favorite read/listen of the year) Get 'Hidden Words' by Baha'u'llah Get 'Help, Thanks, Wow: The Three Essential Prayers ' by Anne Lamott Powerful Quotes to Ponder- "I bear witness, O my God, that Thou hast created me to know Thee and to worship Thee. I testify, at this moment, to my powerlessness and to Thy might, to my poverty and to Thy wealth. There is none other God but Thee, the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting." -Bahá’u’lláh (an Arabic title meaning The Glory of God) "Know thou that the Kingdom is the real world, and this nether place is only its shadow stretching out. A shadow hath no life of its own; its existence is only a fantasy, and nothing more; it is but images reflected in water, and seeming as pictures to the eye." – Abdu’l-Baha via Soul Boom by Rainn Wilson “ "The temple bell stops But the sound keeps coming out of the flowers” -Matsuo Bashō (via Soul Boom by Rainn Wilson) “The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is at the root of all true science. That deeply emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power which is revealed in the incomprehensible Universe is my idea of God.”- Albert Einstein via Soul Boom by Rainn Wilson “He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.” -Albert Einstein via Soul Boom by Rainn Wilson
