Rev. Michael Beckwith | Living Awake: Meditation, Prayer and Purpose
In a time when distraction, division, and despair seem to dominate the collective atmosphere, what does it mean to live awake—and stay awake?This week, I had the distinct honor of sitting down with Reverend Michael B. Beckwith, founder and CEO of the Agape International Spiritual Center and one of the most respected voices in global spiritual leadership.Reverend Beckwith and I explored the science of spiritual transformation—how meditation, affirmative prayer, and light visioning aren’t just tools for personal growth, but essential practices for cultivating a just, compassionate, and awakened world. From addressing the United Nations General Assembly to honoring Nelson Mandela with the Gandhi King Award, Michael’s life is a living testament to the power of inner alignment manifesting outer impact.If you're craving a deeper sense of freedom, grounded purpose, and a spiritual path that translates into social action, this conversation is your invitation.We Also Discuss:● The foundational practice of Agape.● How to recalibrate your nervous system through affirmative prayer.● Why solitude doesn’t have to mean loneliness.● The epidemic of meaninglessness—and how to move through it with purpose.● The intersection of liberation theology and radical compassion.We Also Discuss:[00:00:00] Welcome to The Radical Responsibility Podcast.[00:08:04] The foundational practice in Agape International Spiritual Center.[00:10:34] What happens when you give yourself permission to become still?[00:13:24] The daily practice of waking up to who we are.[00:21:10] Building subtle bodies that can hold energy.[00:22:34] Affirmative prayer and the life visioning process.[00:25:39] Recalibrating your nervous system – immediate effect of affirmative prayer.[00:28:32] When being alone no longer equates with loneliness.[00:32:09] The epidemic of meaninglessness today and what to do about it.[00:42:50] Liberation theology and the meaning and practice of true compassion.Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastofferDownload your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: https://www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcastOrder “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: https://www.radicalresponsibilitybook.com/Join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunityFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartmindinstituteFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/heartmindinstituteProduced by Evolved Podcasting: https://www.evolvedpodcasting.com
