Aaravindha Himadra is a spiritual teacher and the founder of Sambodha, an international nonprofit organization dedicated to the awakening of human consciousness. With Sounds True, he has published the English-language edition of Immortal Self: A Journey to the Himalayan Valley of the Amartya Masters. In this episode of Insights at the Edge, Tami Simon speaks with Aaravindha about the events described in Immortal Self—after a grueling expedition into the interior of the Himalayan Mountains, Aaravindha found himself in the secluded valley home of a deeply secretive spiritual lineage. Aaravindha describes his tutelage under the valley’s long-lived Amartya monks and why he has become the spokesperson for this ancient wisdom tradition. Concluding this fascinating conversation, Tami and Aaravindha discuss the expansion of consciousness and what it means to “listen from the floor of creation.” (73 minutes)

Darnell Lamont Walker: Listen to a Death Doula: This I...

— March 3, 2026

“This is sometimes what love looks like. People want to love you—let people love you.”

It’s a phrase death doula Darnell Lamont Walker has spoken countless times at bedsides, to those who feel ashamed of being seen in their vulnerability, those who don’t want to be a burden, those who have spent a lifetime giving but struggle to receive. What he’s discovered is that the end of life has a way of revealing what love actually is—and it often looks nothing like we expected.

An Emmy-nominated children’s television writer, documentary filmmaker, and death doula, Darnell has accompanied people through life’s final transition since he was a teenager. In this deeply moving conversation, he shares the profound lessons about love and connection he’s gathered from decades of this sacred work.

Join Tami and Darnell as they explore:

Why letting ourselves be loved—especially when we feel most vulnerable—is one of life’s hardest and most important lessons
“Grief is the sequel to love”—reframing loss as a testament to how deeply we’ve connected
The stories people most need to tell before they die, and how sharing them becomes an act of love
How spirits and ancestors return for the dying—and what this reveals about love’s continuity
The surprising joy that emerges from death work
What it means to “die empty” and leave nothing unloved or unexpressed

Whether you’ve supported someone through dying or are simply longing to love and be loved more fully, Darnell offers wisdom that will stay with you long after the conversation ends.

This conversation offers genuine transmission—not just concepts about awakening, but the palpable presence of realized teachers exploring the growing edge of spiritual understanding together. Originally aired on Sounds True One.

Paul Selig: A Journey to the Upper Room: An Attunement...

Paul Selig — February 10, 2026

How do we move beyond fear and separation to experience our true divine nature—especially in times of collective upheaval and uncertainty?

This week, Tami Simon welcomes Paul Selig, a channeler, author, and teacher who has brought through 13 extraordinary books from non-physical guides he describes as teaching from “the upper room.” Born an atheist and trained at Yale, Paul experienced a spontaneous kundalini awakening in 1987 that left him clairvoyant and fundamentally changed his understanding of reality. Since then, he has served as what he calls a “spoken stenographer” for teachings on consciousness, awakening, and our capacity to align with the divine.

Join Tami and Paul to explore:

Paul’s dramatic awakening experience and emergence as a channel
What it feels like to receive and transmit channeled wisdom
The “upper room”—a vibrational state beyond fear and separation
How to recognize when we’re acting from fear versus divine knowing
The clearing process that accompanies spiritual awakening
Why this particular time calls for radical transformation of old structures
The powerful attunement: “I am in God, I am of God, I am with God”
How to maintain trust and openness when part of us still holds back
Practical ways to realign with source amidst chaos and uncertainty

If you’re navigating this time of collective change and seeking a deeper connection to your divine nature, this conversation offers both inspiration and practical guidance for claiming the upper room—that aspect of consciousness where we already dwell in union with all that is.

Ky Dickens: The Telepathy Tapes and What Lies Beyond

Ky Dickens — February 3, 2026

What happens when a rational, skeptical filmmaker encounters evidence that consciousness might work in ways science hasn’t yet explained?

This week, Tami Simon welcomes Ky Dickens—an award-winning documentary filmmaker whose podcast The Telepathy Tapes became the #1 podcast in the world in 2025. Ky’s work explores telepathic communication within the non-speaking community, raising profound questions about consciousness, human potential, and how we can better support individuals with autism and apraxia.

Join Tami and Ky as they discuss:

How a lightning bolt creative moment led to The Telepathy Tapes and what it means to trust the creative muse
The scientific evidence for telepathic communication in non-speaking individuals with autism
“Mindsight”—the remarkable ability of young children to see through blindfolds, and why this capacity appears strongest before age twelve
The interstitium, a recently discovered system in the body that may explain ancient knowledge about energy meridians
Why consciousness as fundamental, rather than materialism, better explains emerging research in telepathy, energy healing, and remote viewing
The dignity and rights of non-speaking individuals and why Communication Regulation Partners (CRPs) should be standard in schools
How this work has transformed Ky’s understanding of death, the non-physical world, and why we’re here

If you’ve been curious about The Telepathy Tapes or wonder what lies at the frontiers of consciousness research, this conversation offers a grounded, scientifically minded exploration of phenomena that challenge our understanding of human potential and invite us into a more marvelous world.

Listen now to discover what becomes possible when we approach the unknown with curiosity rather than dismissal. And to see where Ky and her team are heading with Season 2 of The Telepathy Tapes…and beyond.
