[NEW EPISODE] Love and Compassion - The New Reality

Sabina will talk about her journey, her philosophy and the place spirituality has in her life by describing the paradigm shift we are in the middle of, relating it to Thomas Kuhn'a ideas about the structure of scientific revolutions, and highlighting the role science plays in our world in revealing the nature of reality.

Sabina will talk about the underlying unity of cosmos - that every atom is connected to every other atom, and how we (humanity) are beginning to feel this and act accordingly - hence the Love and Compassion.
This relates to what Benjamin Creme has said about the age of Aquarius - that it is an age characterized by synthesis and group work. It is the era of the group - we are witnessing the rise of global activism, people using their skills and passion in service of the greater good.
This will be an informative and fascinating discussion!

Show Notes

Segment 1

Linda Marsanico opens this episode by introducing The A Train to Sedona memoir and her free “Cheat Sheet for High Vibration Living,” highlighting walking meditation as a way to ground in presence and receive the earth’s nourishment. She then welcomes her guest, Sabina Qureshi, a multilingual musician and lifelong student of the Ageless Wisdom Teachings, who has explored both European classical and North Indian music while living across several countries. Sabina shares how her early curiosity and later personal crises led her to seek deeper understanding of the soul, viewing spirituality as the universal foundation of existence, where each of us is a divine being evolving in awareness toward unity with source.

Segment 2

In this segment, Sabina Qureshi reflects on the power of prayer, describing it as an intentional act that honors free will and opens a channel for divine help and healing to flow. She explains today’s global chaos as the energetic shift from Pisces to Aquarius, where individuality is giving way to collective synthesis, and highlights grassroots movements and humanitarian networks as signs of hope in this transition. Sabina also introduces the Ageless Wisdom Teachings—an ancient body of knowledge that underlies all religions, bridges science and spirituality, and emphasizes love, compassion, and the golden rule as guiding principles for conscious evolution.

Segment 3

In this segment, Sabina Qureshi explains that the Masters of Wisdom are advanced souls who have evolved beyond the cycle of reincarnation, transforming their bodies into light and embodying higher consciousness while still guiding humanity. Among them is Maitreya, described as the planetary embodiment of love and the Christ energy, who supports our shift from the Age of Pisces into the Age of Aquarius by encouraging justice, resource-sharing, and the realization of our divine essence. She emphasizes that these teachings call for practical action—reshaping social, political, and economic structures so compassion and unity are lived realities—while also affirming that spirituality is not about blind belief but direct experience of the interconnectedness science itself now reveals.

Segment 4

In this closing segment, Sabina Qureshi shares that one of the most transformative ways to serve the world is through transmission meditation, a group practice that channels high-frequency spiritual energies to aid humanity’s evolution while also deepening personal growth. She describes the soul as a divine spark whose purpose is service, expressing itself through acts of love, community, and activism—bridging spirituality with practical efforts to create change. Sabina highlights her upcoming project on the connection between spirituality and activism, provides resources through Share International, and warmly invites listeners to connect with her directly for continued exploration.


Transcript

00:00:51.370 --> 00:00:58.200 Linda Marsanico: Hello, everyone! Welcome to the A Train to Sedona broadcast. I'm Linda Marcanico.

00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:02.909 Linda Marsanico: The aid train to Sedona is also the name of a memoir I wrote.

00:01:03.050 --> 00:01:12.479 Linda Marsanico: About my journey to love and compassion. I share my failures, my successes, in the hope that my journey will inspire yours.

00:01:13.450 --> 00:01:19.270 Linda Marsanico: You can buy a signed copy of The Aid Train to Sedona, on my website.

00:01:19.420 --> 00:01:29.620 Linda Marsanico: at LindamarSanico.com, or an unsigned copy from Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Walmart, and regular bookstores.

00:01:31.230 --> 00:01:42.640 Linda Marsanico: I have a free gift for you. I call it the Cheat Sheet for High Vibration Living. 7 exercises designed to keep your energy bright and in the moment.

00:01:42.740 --> 00:01:54.930 Linda Marsanico: The one I'm highlighting today is the walking meditation. It's a Thich Nhat Hanh design, where if you're in a rural area, you take your shoes off, and you let the earth

00:01:55.780 --> 00:02:09.269 Linda Marsanico: nourish and… nourish you tremendously. There's so much power in the earth. Or, if you're in an urban area, walk, look at your surroundings, but come back to the center, your present moment.

00:02:09.410 --> 00:02:16.099 Linda Marsanico: You can download a copy, on my website at lindamarSanigo.com.

00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:32.409 Linda Marsanico: I have two disclaimers. One is that this broadcast does not establish a professional relationship, and two, that the opinions expressed here do not necessarily represent Talk Radio New York City.

00:02:33.060 --> 00:02:37.579 Linda Marsanico: Today, my guest is Sabina Qureshi.

00:02:38.640 --> 00:02:55.979 Linda Marsanico: Sabina Qureshi has a Bachelor of Science degree in genetics from the University of Alberta, and comes from a multicultural academic home that was always filled with classical music, both European and North Indian.

00:02:56.260 --> 00:03:10.860 Linda Marsanico: Having a lifelong love of music and art, she studied European classical piano, violin, viola, as well as North Indian raga music, sitar, tablas, tempura, and voice.

00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:23.539 Linda Marsanico: Sabina has lived in Switzerland, Norway, and Spain, as well as Pakistan, and is multilingual. She speaks French, Spanish, Norwegian, and understands some Urdu.

00:03:24.010 --> 00:03:32.030 Linda Marsanico: She has held many labor jobs and worked as an English and French teacher and translator in Spain and Norway.

00:03:32.660 --> 00:03:44.299 Linda Marsanico: A long-time student of the Ageless Wisdom Teachings, Sabina co-created and co-hosted a series of webinars aired on YouTube about

00:03:44.540 --> 00:03:49.390 Linda Marsanico: The ageless wisdom entitled, What in the World is Happening?

00:03:49.700 --> 00:04:01.870 Linda Marsanico: From 2021 to 2024. She is interested in helping people understand and navigate the chaotic period our planet is going through now.

00:04:02.870 --> 00:04:06.489 Linda Marsanico: Sabina, welcome to the A train to Sedona.

00:04:06.810 --> 00:04:09.199 Sabina Qureshi: Thank you, Linda, it's a pleasure to be here.

00:04:09.880 --> 00:04:17.789 Linda Marsanico: What an impressive resume. The languages you speak, and the places you've lived, and the musical instruments that you play, extraordinary.

00:04:17.990 --> 00:04:33.829 Sabina Qureshi: Oh, thank you. But the one thing I don't have is professional credentials. But I was never an academic type, even though I grew up in an academic home. So, yeah, and you have to follow what works for you. And it may not be what people think.

00:04:33.830 --> 00:04:42.720 Sabina Qureshi: You should do, or what is being expected of you, but you just have to trust that your sense of things makes sense.

00:04:43.500 --> 00:04:47.229 Linda Marsanico: The wisdom is within, really, and it's really up to us to decide.

00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:48.340 Sabina Qureshi: That's right.

00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:59.020 Linda Marsanico: As we ask questions of ourselves. So my first question is, what are the influences in your past that lead you to where you are today?

00:04:59.670 --> 00:05:24.659 Sabina Qureshi: I would say the underlying thing is curiosity. Even as a child, and I think all of us have experienced this type of thing, if we have an environment that allows us space for this kind of thing. I know that there are childhoods which are full of trauma and don't allow space, but if you have space for this, children are naturally curious about everything.

00:05:24.660 --> 00:05:32.009 Sabina Qureshi: about the universe, about the world around them. And I was very curious, like many, many children, about

00:05:32.010 --> 00:05:56.749 Sabina Qureshi: the vastness of the universe. I remember as a child trying to understand infinity, which, of course, I couldn't, but these were the questions that I thought about. I did also wonder why people behaved the way they did, but as a child, that wasn't really something I dwelt on, because I couldn't fathom it anyway. It was only later, when I went through a series of personal crises.

00:05:56.750 --> 00:06:06.590 Sabina Qureshi: that I began to have more, I would say, existential questions. Questions about who are we?

00:06:06.670 --> 00:06:24.369 Sabina Qureshi: what are we doing here? What is the nature of our lives at a personal level? And that is where, really, my whole search began, to understand myself, not just as my personality, but my fundamental being.

00:06:25.280 --> 00:06:27.500 Sabina Qureshi: So really, it was crisis, I'd say.

00:06:30.410 --> 00:06:32.069 Sabina Qureshi: Oh, Linda, you're muted.

00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:41.060 Linda Marsanico: Am I…

00:06:41.060 --> 00:06:41.440 Sabina Qureshi: Yes.

00:06:41.440 --> 00:06:42.470 Linda Marsanico: Heard now?

00:06:42.660 --> 00:06:43.709 Sabina Qureshi: Yes, you were.

00:06:43.710 --> 00:06:46.859 Linda Marsanico: Thank you. How helpful were your parents?

00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:56.420 Linda Marsanico: In your… as influences in your quest, in your curiosity, in your wonderment of who are we, and…

00:06:56.630 --> 00:06:58.560 Linda Marsanico: The nature of the universe.

00:06:59.690 --> 00:07:13.110 Sabina Qureshi: Well, I would say they played a very interesting role. Both of them, were academics, and were… really, they lived that life, the life of an intellectual, of an academic, and

00:07:13.370 --> 00:07:17.310 Sabina Qureshi: I think for them, the question of who am I,

00:07:17.400 --> 00:07:31.780 Sabina Qureshi: was answered in a different way, through the lens of their intellectual focus for each of them. My father was a political scientist, my mother was an ethnomusicologist. So, in each of their cases, they were answering it.

00:07:31.780 --> 00:07:37.479 Sabina Qureshi: differently from each other, but there was an overlap, because they were both interested in Southeast Asia.

00:07:37.480 --> 00:08:02.389 Sabina Qureshi: my quest was much more personal, and I was drawn to yoga and meditation, and that was something they were not, focused on. I mean, it wasn't an area of interest for them. So, in a way, there was no real interaction around this particular quest. There were just different spheres of influence. Now, one of the ways in which I feel that I did benefit

00:08:02.390 --> 00:08:10.440 Sabina Qureshi: from their interests was that when I was a child growing up, they had lots of music parties, Indian music parties, at home.

00:08:10.610 --> 00:08:31.130 Sabina Qureshi: So, I grew up hearing Indian music, classical Indian music, and I think music, by its very nature, is rooted in our connection to the cosmos and to ourselves as spiritual beings. I think this is true for all music of all types across the globe. And so.

00:08:31.230 --> 00:08:51.689 Sabina Qureshi: it will, you know, the vibration of music will bring you into that connection within yourself. And so, I was lucky to have that happening in my home as a child, also Western classical music. So, in that way, that helped me, that nourished me a lot. I would say that was a very nourishing environment to be growing up in.

00:08:52.140 --> 00:08:58.569 Linda Marsanico: Yes, it's very creative, and I think of music. There's somebody on Twitter who

00:08:59.070 --> 00:09:04.860 Linda Marsanico: just reveres music, and I think that it's the universal language and the music of the soul.

00:09:05.180 --> 00:09:08.349 Linda Marsanico: And we communicate, like that.

00:09:09.550 --> 00:09:13.290 Linda Marsanico: What would you say the role of spirituality is in your life?

00:09:14.370 --> 00:09:28.979 Sabina Qureshi: Well, I would say it plays a fundamental role, but I personally believe it's fundamental to all of us, because I think everything is spiritual. We've perhaps ended up in the West, in the western part of the world.

00:09:29.210 --> 00:09:48.899 Sabina Qureshi: sort of having been taught that spirituality is only the realm of religion, or of institutionalized spirituality. But I believe that everyone and everything is spiritual. That is to say that the universe we see around us, all the physical objects, our physical bodies.

00:09:48.900 --> 00:09:49.340 Linda Marsanico: Yes.

00:09:49.340 --> 00:09:51.390 Sabina Qureshi: All of this, these are all…

00:09:51.390 --> 00:10:16.379 Sabina Qureshi: expressions of an underlying reality which is not visible, which is spiritual, which is energy. And we do know now that, you know, energy equals matter times the speed of light, right? Squared. So we've learned that from Einstein, and so these kinds of ideas that everything is energy, it doesn't sound so outlandish

00:10:16.380 --> 00:10:24.630 Sabina Qureshi: anymore. It's much more acceptable, or accepted. And so, I would say spirituality is the underlying

00:10:24.670 --> 00:10:37.859 Sabina Qureshi: kind of basis for me in my life, but I do think that that is true for all of us, whether we're consciously aware of it or not. I think that each one of us is in a process of

00:10:37.860 --> 00:11:00.070 Sabina Qureshi: evolution of our consciousness, that this is a fundamental part of simply existing as a human being. I think all of us are souls in incarnation. Our physical body is simply the way that our soul is able to function on the physical plane, because the soul isn't physical, it's not dense physical matter.

00:11:00.070 --> 00:11:07.179 Sabina Qureshi: So it needs a physical body. But given that we each are a soul in incarnation,

00:11:07.180 --> 00:11:31.569 Sabina Qureshi: as a soul, we are going through a process of growth and learning, because the soul is learning what it is to live on the physical plane. The physical plane is not something that is part of the soul's domain. So the soul is learning, and we, what we think of as ourselves, our human personality, the part of us that we think of as, that's me, well, that is the part of us that we're aware of.

00:11:31.570 --> 00:11:36.589 Sabina Qureshi: But there's much more to us that we're not aware of, and as we go through life.

00:11:36.590 --> 00:12:01.590 Sabina Qureshi: we open up more and more of those areas that we haven't been aware of. So our awareness of ourself keeps growing, our understanding of ourself keeps growing, and as that happens, we also begin to understand more and more clearly other people and life itself. So it's a very vast kind of project that we're in, but it's innate to who we are.

00:12:01.590 --> 00:12:06.899 Sabina Qureshi: So, you don't have to be thinking about it for it to be happening. It's part of who you are.

00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:14.410 Linda Marsanico: Do you have any… Belief of a personal, spiritual aspect of yourself?

00:12:14.620 --> 00:12:18.680 Linda Marsanico: Or is it all you as part of this large project?

00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:23.499 Sabina Qureshi: When you say personal, I'm not too sure what you mean.

00:12:23.770 --> 00:12:26.650 Linda Marsanico: You in relation to Creator.

00:12:27.510 --> 00:12:32.309 Sabina Qureshi: Do you mean the idea of God, something like that, or spiritual teachers?

00:12:32.310 --> 00:12:33.040 Linda Marsanico: Yeah.

00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:34.320 Sabina Qureshi: Yes, absolutely.

00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:41.410 Linda Marsanico: I'm speaking more to, source and the highest realm that we can imagine.

00:12:41.410 --> 00:12:42.290 Sabina Qureshi: Okay.

00:12:42.290 --> 00:13:07.249 Sabina Qureshi: Yes, absolutely, because I think there is a source for all of this. It's not random, and I believe every time I look at a plant, I'm again struck by the beauty and the intelligence that has created all of this, and I think we can't help but see that when we look around ourselves at the natural world. So I do believe that there is a div… I would use the word divine, but I think

00:13:07.250 --> 00:13:29.800 Sabina Qureshi: the word divine can also be confusing, because for many of us, it has connotations of something otherworldly, something not part of this world, or something that's in a religion that's kind of boxed away in that category over there, that it only happens when you go inside a temple, or a mosque, or a church. So I would say simply, there's a…

00:13:29.800 --> 00:13:43.739 Sabina Qureshi: an intelligence, an underlying intelligence, and it's not just intelligence, but it's goodness. And I think this is vastly underrated. I think the goodness… it sounds like a very sort of simple word, but.

00:13:43.740 --> 00:13:45.740 Linda Marsanico: I love the word.

00:13:46.100 --> 00:13:48.629 Linda Marsanico: I love the word goodness.

00:13:48.630 --> 00:14:01.550 Sabina Qureshi: Yeah, so I do think there's this intelligence, the creator, the source of everything is the same intelligence and goodness that is in us, or that we are, fundamentally.

00:14:01.940 --> 00:14:10.359 Sabina Qureshi: And if you look at all the spiritual teachings and all the religious teachings, they all tell us that we are that same,

00:14:10.360 --> 00:14:33.070 Sabina Qureshi: I'm going to use the word divine again, that we are that same divine being. That intelligence, that goodness, is fundamental to who we are. It is who we are. It's simply that we perceive ourselves as being other or separate from it, but that, in fact, we are that, and we are on a path of return, if you want to call it that. That is, we are growing in awareness.

00:14:33.070 --> 00:14:39.889 Sabina Qureshi: to come to understand that we are that, we are not separate from that. Although the appearance is that we're separate from it.

00:14:41.280 --> 00:14:44.090 Linda Marsanico: We're getting ready for a commercial break.

00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:50.440 Linda Marsanico: And when we come back, I have a question about whether you pray and meditate.

00:14:50.930 --> 00:14:58.390 Linda Marsanico: I do know that you meditate, but I don't have a sense of whether you pray. So, listeners, come back and let's find out.

00:14:58.490 --> 00:15:02.680 Linda Marsanico: Whether, sabina.

00:15:03.110 --> 00:15:06.180 Linda Marsanico: Praise as well… as well as meditates.

00:15:06.820 --> 00:15:07.910 Linda Marsanico: Join us!

00:17:21.450 --> 00:17:30.220 Linda Marsanico: Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the A Train to Sedona. I'm Linda Maras-Sanico, with my guest, Sabina Qureshi.

00:17:30.470 --> 00:17:31.660 Linda Marsanico: Sabina.

00:17:32.060 --> 00:17:35.850 Linda Marsanico: Do you pray as well as… I know you meditate, but do you pray?

00:17:36.090 --> 00:17:49.399 Sabina Qureshi: I do pray, yes. I think I probably don't pray as often as I could, because I think prayer is very, very powerful. The action of asking for

00:17:49.400 --> 00:18:02.220 Sabina Qureshi: for help, or for healing, for others, for oneself. I think it's a very powerful thing to do. We are all familiar with the phrase from the New Testament, ask.

00:18:02.230 --> 00:18:12.429 Sabina Qureshi: And it shall be given. Knock and the door shall be opened. And I think what this tells us is that on a very fundamental level.

00:18:12.430 --> 00:18:36.440 Sabina Qureshi: it is our choosing to ask for something that has an impact on the fabric of the universe, that creates an opening in which something can come to us. And I understand this as a function of our free will being something that the divine consciousness or the intelligence that created everything.

00:18:36.520 --> 00:18:53.459 Sabina Qureshi: must respect, or does respect, that the respect of free will is basic or fundamental to how everything works. And that's why we have to ask so that it can be given to us. Otherwise, it would be an imposition, even if it's what we want.

00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:55.649 Linda Marsanico: I'm all for prayer.

00:18:57.350 --> 00:19:00.770 Linda Marsanico: Why are things so chaotic in the world now?

00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:16.780 Sabina Qureshi: Well, my understanding is that this is because we're going through a change of age. You've heard, perhaps, of the age of Aquarius, the age of Pisces. Our solar system is moving through

00:19:16.780 --> 00:19:27.749 Sabina Qureshi: kind of a range of motion, and it's making a giant cycle, through the heavens that takes 25,000 years to complete. And…

00:19:27.750 --> 00:19:31.419 Sabina Qureshi: During that entire period, it…

00:19:31.420 --> 00:19:54.070 Sabina Qureshi: is aligned more or less energetically with each of the 12 constellations for a period of a little over 2,000 years each time. And so, right now, we're in the moment when we are leaving the energetic relationship with Pisces and entering the energetic relationship with Aquarius. Now, Pisces and Aquarius are constellations.

00:19:54.070 --> 00:20:04.469 Sabina Qureshi: And each constellation, each star, emits energy. We're familiar with this, our very own sun emits energy that we depend on for life.

00:20:04.860 --> 00:20:28.509 Sabina Qureshi: Now, usually we don't think of the light or the energy that's coming from a star as being spiritual in any way. That is, we just look at it as purely a physical energy. You know, life depends on that light. Plants won't grow without light, that type of thing. However, the teachings that I have come into contact with the Ageless Wisdom teachings, what they tell us is that

00:20:28.560 --> 00:20:45.260 Sabina Qureshi: Everything is conscious, and consciousness is everywhere, so that, in fact, just as my physical body is the body of manifestation, if you want to call it that, for a spiritual being, my soul.

00:20:45.260 --> 00:20:55.429 Sabina Qureshi: In the same way, our planet, our Earth, is the physical body, or the body of manifestation, of a great being, a great being like

00:20:55.520 --> 00:21:11.300 Sabina Qureshi: my soul, like your soul, but just more evolved, like an older brother, vaster, with more intelligence. Because if you think of the Earth and all life on it, that is a lot to manage, if that was your body.

00:21:11.320 --> 00:21:28.319 Sabina Qureshi: And then the same, according to this teaching, is true of the sun, of all the planets in our solar system. They are all beings, and the entire solar system at a higher level is also the body of manifestation of a great being. So each constellation

00:21:28.320 --> 00:21:52.340 Sabina Qureshi: is also the body of manifestation of a great being, and each star within that constellation, likewise. And each of these stars is emitting spiritual energies of very, very high frequencies, which have an impact on us, and they stimulate us, and they stimulate our lives to proceed and to grow in certain directions.

00:21:52.340 --> 00:22:16.470 Sabina Qureshi: So according to this teaching, during the age of Pisces, the energies that we were receiving from the constellation of Pisces, they were stimulating our individuality. Prior to the age of Pisces, we lived more or less in a kind of herd mentality. There were few people who had real individuality developed. They tended to be those who were kind of

00:22:16.500 --> 00:22:27.559 Sabina Qureshi: bossing everybody else around. But over the last 2,000 years, our individuality became much more developed, to the point where now, really, most

00:22:27.560 --> 00:22:49.179 Sabina Qureshi: if not all of us, have a very highly developed individuality, and we can see this also in the type of institutions we created over the last 2,000 years. Generally, we have institutions in which there's a leader, and then the rest, and so this kind of is an indication of a focus on individuality. In the Aquarian

00:22:49.180 --> 00:23:12.990 Sabina Qureshi: age, the age that we're entering now, and the energies that we're now receiving from Aquarius, what is stimulated is synthesis. That means the bringing together of disparate or different, distinct elements to create something new. And so, one way to look at it is that the age of Aquarius is the age of group work, of people coming together and working together

00:23:12.990 --> 00:23:31.930 Sabina Qureshi: for a greater good, for a goal that they share in common. And I think we're seeing this around the world now. We're seeing large numbers of people coming together in all areas to advocate for things they feel are important, activist groups, political groups, all types of groups.

00:23:33.510 --> 00:23:43.579 Sabina Qureshi: And it's… I just want to go back to your original question about the chaos. So the chaos is because when you are changing from one type of energy to another.

00:23:43.600 --> 00:23:57.210 Sabina Qureshi: there is the collapse of what was the dominant energy, and the entrance of something new that's just beginning, and so that causes the chaos. It's kind of like mixing oil and water.

00:23:57.890 --> 00:23:58.480 Sabina Qureshi: Yeah.

00:23:59.080 --> 00:24:06.450 Linda Marsanico: It's going to take a while. But you were mentioning also that there are positive events that give us hope.

00:24:07.060 --> 00:24:09.239 Sabina Qureshi: Absolutely, yes. Now, we can.

00:24:09.240 --> 00:24:12.919 Linda Marsanico: They taught them, but perhaps you can say some more about that.

00:24:13.390 --> 00:24:31.990 Sabina Qureshi: Absolutely, there are many positive events that can give us hope, but they generally aren't being reported in the mainstream media, and I understand the media's job is to get our attention, and of course, the best way to do that is to tell us something awful, you know?

00:24:32.850 --> 00:24:45.180 Sabina Qureshi: But the good news that we perhaps aren't seeing in the mainstream media, though there are groups, you know, media groups that are focusing on that as well, it's just they're not mainstream, what we're seeing are

00:24:45.250 --> 00:25:09.259 Sabina Qureshi: large networks of people working to improve their lives and the lives of others. Some very, very simple examples are community gardens in large cities. This is something that has been growing in the last decades, and perhaps it's not reported on, but if you are interested and you read up about this, you'll see people in their own neighborhoods working together with

00:25:09.260 --> 00:25:33.509 Sabina Qureshi: their municipal authorities to find places where they can grow vegetables in their neighborhoods, community gardens, and these foods can then be shared free with people who don't have access to enough fresh fruit or vegetable normally, because it's expensive. We also have lots of people working together, again, in groups and networks.

00:25:33.510 --> 00:25:47.779 Sabina Qureshi: to bring about justice, equality for those who are in conditions, for example, of modern-day slavery. I just read a report about these enormous

00:25:47.780 --> 00:26:07.170 Sabina Qureshi: I guess you would call them call centers, but they're not call centers in the way we usually think of them. They're call centers where people are held in virtual slavery, in Myanmar along the border with Thailand and Cambodia, to enact all kinds of scams on the internet and through

00:26:07.170 --> 00:26:24.380 Sabina Qureshi: cold calling. Now, those people are virtually slaves, they're stuck there, they can't leave. But there are organizations, there are networks of people who work to free those people who are held there. All of this kind of action that's going on, if we look at, for example.

00:26:24.580 --> 00:26:37.459 Sabina Qureshi: groups that we're very familiar with, Oxfam, Doctors Without Borders, Reporters Without Borders, there are all kinds of groups working to protect and help

00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:51.269 Sabina Qureshi: not just human beings, but the natural environment. So there are an enormous number of groups like this doing amazing things all across the world, but you have to look, you have to search for this news to find it.

00:26:51.270 --> 00:26:53.590 Linda Marsanico: There's a lot of grassroot work.

00:26:53.750 --> 00:26:54.360 Sabina Qureshi: Exactly.

00:26:54.360 --> 00:26:56.969 Linda Marsanico: It's starting from the bottom, coming up.

00:26:57.190 --> 00:26:58.850 Sabina Qureshi: That's right, exactly.

00:26:58.850 --> 00:27:00.389 Linda Marsanico: It's important to note.

00:27:00.730 --> 00:27:01.480 Sabina Qureshi: Yes.

00:27:04.370 --> 00:27:07.129 Linda Marsanico: who is… well, I want to ask you about

00:27:07.320 --> 00:27:19.390 Linda Marsanico: the ageless wisdom Teachings. We have a few minutes. Would you start to talk about that, and we'll get back to it when we come back from break? What are the ageless wisdom Teachings?

00:27:19.940 --> 00:27:34.579 Sabina Qureshi: It's a body of teachings which has been known for a very long time in the East, but was introduced to the West a few centuries ago by Helena Blavatsky, a Russian

00:27:34.690 --> 00:27:53.719 Sabina Qureshi: writer and mystic. She wrote a number of books. The Secret Doctrine, is the most famous of them. Then there were other writers as well after her, Helena Roerich and Alice Bailey, and more recently, Benjamin Krem. Now, what it is, is a teaching that

00:27:53.720 --> 00:27:58.220 Sabina Qureshi: underlies all of the major religions. It's a teaching that

00:27:58.490 --> 00:28:20.509 Sabina Qureshi: those of us who subscribe to it feel gives us the basis for all of the major religions. It's very… you can sum it all up if you wanted to, as the golden rule. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. But it's very vast in terms of explaining our lives here, the evolution of our consciousness.

00:28:20.510 --> 00:28:31.649 Sabina Qureshi: how we are related to life on the rest of the cosmos, sort of thing. So it's an enormous body of teaching, but I found it very…

00:28:31.650 --> 00:28:33.660 Sabina Qureshi: Valuable, very,

00:28:33.780 --> 00:28:46.439 Sabina Qureshi: I guess I would say exciting, because in my case, it seemed to marry both the scientific approach and the religious approach. It seemed to bridge that gap, bring these things together. And so.

00:28:46.440 --> 00:29:09.920 Sabina Qureshi: that, in the very beginning, got my attention. The other thing that got my attention was that it provided a way of bringing together the different religious traditions in the world. I grew up in a home, my father was from a Muslim background, my mother from a Christian background, so I was familiar with different religions, but this was the first time I'd heard somebody talk about these different religions in a way that said.

00:29:09.920 --> 00:29:15.049 Sabina Qureshi: they all… Are saying the same thing, and they all come from the same source.

00:29:16.340 --> 00:29:21.610 Linda Marsanico: Yes, and with love and compassion, We can change things.

00:29:21.990 --> 00:29:22.610 Sabina Qureshi: Yes.

00:29:22.610 --> 00:29:32.530 Linda Marsanico: Love and compassion. Did I tell you that when I was putting together my website, I knew it was going to be spiritual, but I didn't know from what perspective?

00:29:32.530 --> 00:29:43.239 Linda Marsanico: For 6 months, I went back and forth until I finally said, it has to be about love and compassion, because it takes a lot of work to get there, and…

00:29:43.240 --> 00:29:50.909 Linda Marsanico: even if you don't believe in a creator, if you're loving and compassionate, you're spiritual whether you know it or not.

00:29:50.910 --> 00:29:51.430 Sabina Qureshi: That's right.

00:29:51.430 --> 00:29:54.719 Linda Marsanico: That's hugely, it's hugely important.

00:29:55.340 --> 00:29:57.630 Linda Marsanico: So we are going to take a break.

00:29:57.840 --> 00:30:00.300 Linda Marsanico: And we're going to talk about Maitreya.

00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:02.379 Linda Marsanico: and the Masters of Wisdom.

00:30:02.840 --> 00:30:07.060 Linda Marsanico: So… Listeners, join us after the break.

00:30:07.430 --> 00:30:13.150 Linda Marsanico: And come and, hear about, these… These… Ideas.

00:31:58.370 --> 00:32:12.330 Linda Marsanico: Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the A Train to Sedona broadcast. I'm Linda Marcanico with my guest, Sabina Qureshi. Sabina, tell us about Maitreya and the Masters of Wisdom.

00:32:13.010 --> 00:32:17.639 Sabina Qureshi: Well, according to the Ageless Wisdom teachings, we are not alone.

00:32:17.640 --> 00:32:40.279 Sabina Qureshi: as we go through our process of evolution of consciousness, and gain more understanding and more insight, gradually our physical bodies, the very atoms of our physical bodies, are changed into light. And this is a process that keeps going through successive lifetimes. So, reincarnation is one of the main teachings of the Ageless Wisdom.

00:32:40.280 --> 00:32:53.139 Sabina Qureshi: teachings. And what we learn in that teaching is that reincarnation used to be part of the Christian teaching as well, until it was removed by Emperor Justinius.

00:32:53.360 --> 00:33:09.710 Sabina Qureshi: mostly in order to increase his control over people, through fear, because if you think this is your only life, then it's easier to manipulate you, basically. But the teaching of reincarnation

00:33:10.020 --> 00:33:28.100 Sabina Qureshi: is very… I think it's… it's very logical, it makes a lot of sense, because if you look at who and what a human being is, if you look at our immense capacity to create, and our curiosity, one lifetime really doesn't seem to be enough time.

00:33:28.100 --> 00:33:31.690 Linda Marsanico: I totally agree. Preaching to the choir here.

00:33:31.690 --> 00:33:32.350 Sabina Qureshi: Right.

00:33:33.940 --> 00:33:48.189 Sabina Qureshi: So, in this idea of reincarnation, in every lifetime, we continue to grow. As we reach the end of one lifetime, whatever we've gained in knowledge, insight, and understanding is

00:33:48.230 --> 00:33:54.789 Sabina Qureshi: is kept, so that in the next lifetime, we start from the same point. We don't lose any of that. And…

00:33:54.860 --> 00:34:00.010 Sabina Qureshi: At the end of the process, our body will be completely

00:34:00.010 --> 00:34:18.370 Sabina Qureshi: transformed into light, and we will no longer have any need of physical sustenance. That is, we will be able to get our nourishment directly from the sun, not through plant life or animal life. And so, once you reach that stage, you have complete mastery over all of your

00:34:18.550 --> 00:34:43.530 Sabina Qureshi: bodies, all of yourself, and then you are called a Master of Wisdom. So the masters of Wisdom are simply people like ourselves who are a little farther ahead on this path of the evolution of consciousness. And once you reach that stage, you also don't need to come back and be born again in a physical body, because you've finished, sort of, the learning that there is to be

00:34:43.530 --> 00:34:46.459 Sabina Qureshi: had here on planet Earth.

00:34:46.460 --> 00:34:52.379 Linda Marsanico: I mean, some people say that that is a status called Ascended, an Ascended Master.

00:34:52.750 --> 00:34:57.299 Sabina Qureshi: Yes, I would say that that would be a good way to describe it, yes.

00:34:57.300 --> 00:34:58.040 Linda Marsanico: Yes.

00:34:58.290 --> 00:35:10.619 Linda Marsanico: to be taken out of the repetition of being born again and dying again, being born again and dying again. You are light, and you are… you've arrived.

00:35:10.620 --> 00:35:11.310 Sabina Qureshi: That's right.

00:35:11.310 --> 00:35:13.670 Linda Marsanico: work, by the way.

00:35:13.670 --> 00:35:25.569 Sabina Qureshi: Well, it's an infinite process, so they continue evolving, or we, that is, once we're at that point, we continue evolving. It never ends. But they can… a master of wisdom can…

00:35:25.890 --> 00:35:41.729 Sabina Qureshi: choose to continue this evolution on other planets, in other solar systems, but some of them choose to stay here, and part of what they do by staying here is that they

00:35:41.730 --> 00:36:06.650 Sabina Qureshi: oversee our evolution. They help us from behind the scenes. Because they respect our free will, they can never infringe that free will. So, for example, they can't just suddenly appear to us as a master of wisdom, unless that's something that we're ready for, or we've asked for, or energetically, it's possible. Generally, it won't happen, simply because our vibration is so different from theirs.

00:36:06.650 --> 00:36:31.579 Sabina Qureshi: However, they do appear to us sometimes as regular people. So, since they have mastery over time and space, and the physical plane, they can change their appearance at will, and they can appear and disappear. I mean, it sounds very science fiction, however, matter and energy are the same thing, right?

00:36:31.700 --> 00:36:35.279 Linda Marsanico: People have been writing about this for a long time. I've heard…

00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:35.670 Sabina Qureshi: That's right.

00:36:35.670 --> 00:36:36.680 Linda Marsanico: Or… yeah.

00:36:36.680 --> 00:36:53.329 Sabina Qureshi: Exactly. So Maitrea is one of the Masters of Wisdom. He's in a way, the leader of that group. He's also a Master of Wisdom, but he's even more evolved than the main group of the Masters of Wisdom are, and his role is that he…

00:36:53.780 --> 00:36:55.440 Sabina Qureshi: embodies love.

00:36:55.440 --> 00:37:18.109 Sabina Qureshi: On a planetary level. And what that means is that the energy of love, he embodies it. That is, all of his being is that energy of love. So, what he is to us is… he is the Christ. That is to say, because Christ… what is the Christ? The Christ is the incarnation of love.

00:37:18.110 --> 00:37:25.530 Sabina Qureshi: And so, the teaching of the Ageless Wisdom teaching says that this, this being Maitrea.

00:37:25.810 --> 00:37:37.610 Sabina Qureshi: has been helping us for a very long time. He's one of our most elder brothers, if you want to think of it that way. He was one of the very first to become a Master of Wisdom, and

00:37:37.610 --> 00:37:51.900 Sabina Qureshi: He is here to help us in this transition from the age of Pisces to the age of Aquarius, and to help each of us in our personal quest to understand ourselves, to become more fully who we are.

00:37:51.900 --> 00:38:08.089 Sabina Qureshi: And he also talks a lot about the conditions in which we live. And he talks a lot about hunger and poverty, and the idea of sharing the world's resources in order to

00:38:08.120 --> 00:38:23.929 Sabina Qureshi: have a provision for everybody of their basic needs being met, this is fundamental to the Masters of Wisdom. Why? Because there's no need for people to suffer in a world of plenty. The only reason that happens is because of

00:38:23.980 --> 00:38:26.209 Sabina Qureshi: A problem of distribution.

00:38:26.210 --> 00:38:26.670 Linda Marsanico: Oof.

00:38:26.670 --> 00:38:51.509 Sabina Qureshi: resources being held back, being controlled for the purposes of profit. And so, there's a major shift underway right now in which more and more people are understanding that this is what's happening, and that it doesn't need to be so, and that it shouldn't be so, in fact, that there's a moral imperative to change this. And in one of my Treya's messages, he says, the time has come to begin the process of change.

00:38:51.510 --> 00:39:05.320 Sabina Qureshi: to transform the life of men in such a way that the God in man shines forth. This, my friends, is not difficult of accomplishment, for within you all sits such a divine being.

00:39:05.910 --> 00:39:11.739 Sabina Qureshi: My task will be to evoke from you that shining light, and take you to its source.

00:39:11.890 --> 00:39:12.520 Linda Marsanico: Hmm.

00:39:13.660 --> 00:39:38.180 Sabina Qureshi: And so the structures in which we live right now do not permit the shining forth of that divine being within us. If you're stuck in a job that takes all your energy, exhausts you, by the end of the day, then you're rushing home, you are trying to manage your home life, your family life, you don't have time, you don't have any energy left over. You're being squeezed.

00:39:38.180 --> 00:39:40.920 Sabina Qureshi: You know? So… and this is…

00:39:40.940 --> 00:39:51.639 Sabina Qureshi: even worse, in many parts of the world, not North America, for example. We're actually living in the relatively privileged part of the world. So, these are the things that

00:39:51.640 --> 00:40:01.019 Sabina Qureshi: he is concerned with is that there has to be a fundamental shift in how the world is organized, politically and economically. And

00:40:01.020 --> 00:40:17.200 Sabina Qureshi: Perhaps this sounds unusual, that a spiritual teacher would talk about these things, but to me, it makes a lot of sense, because what is the use of an understanding of ourselves as spiritual beings, as love and compassion, if we don't put that into practice?

00:40:17.700 --> 00:40:30.780 Sabina Qureshi: That is one of the main changes between the Age of Pisces and the Age of Aquarius. In the Age of Pisces, there was a lot of idealism and a lot of devotion to ideals, but in the Age of Aquarius, this is going to become

00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:35.960 Sabina Qureshi: practical reality on the ground. And…

00:40:36.060 --> 00:40:59.070 Sabina Qureshi: Benjamin Krem talks about the seventh ray. There are seven rays which are the names for different types of energies that make up everything in the universe, including us, including our bodies. And he says that the seventh ray is becoming more potent in our lives daily, while the sixth ray of idealism is receding. It is being drawn back and out.

00:40:59.070 --> 00:41:00.620 Linda Marsanico: That's the seventh way, just a reminder.

00:41:00.620 --> 00:41:12.869 Sabina Qureshi: It is the… the seventh ray is the ray of ceremonial order, and it has the effect of drawing together people, and it synthesizes, so that's very much in tune with the age of Aquarius.

00:41:12.870 --> 00:41:14.109 Linda Marsanico: What color is it?

00:41:14.620 --> 00:41:15.330 Linda Marsanico: Do you know?

00:41:15.330 --> 00:41:25.009 Sabina Qureshi: I'm not sure about colors, no, I'm sorry, I don't know that. But the seventh ray is the most practical of all the rays. It works on the dense physical field.

00:41:25.010 --> 00:41:25.410 Linda Marsanico: Really?

00:41:25.410 --> 00:41:40.030 Sabina Qureshi: translating a spiritual ideal to matter. And so that's why you can see people putting these ideas, these beautiful ideas of brotherhood, of justice, people are working to put those into practice to make them real on the ground.

00:41:40.770 --> 00:41:43.789 Sabina Qureshi: And, yeah. Linda, you're muted again.

00:41:47.960 --> 00:41:49.669 Sabina Qureshi: You're still muted.

00:41:50.820 --> 00:41:51.699 Sabina Qureshi: There, now you're…

00:41:51.700 --> 00:41:53.720 Linda Marsanico: Okay,

00:41:57.690 --> 00:42:03.350 Linda Marsanico: Does sharing mean… so how are we going to be facilitating this?

00:42:03.490 --> 00:42:04.760 Linda Marsanico: Sabine.

00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:06.049 Sabina Qureshi: Well, you… yeah.

00:42:06.050 --> 00:42:06.870 Linda Marsanico: Yo.

00:42:07.220 --> 00:42:18.199 Sabina Qureshi: Well, the idea is not that I have to give up my personal savings. The idea is that at a structural level, internationally, that

00:42:18.230 --> 00:42:31.289 Sabina Qureshi: All of the countries in the world would create an inventory of what they have, what they have in excess of their needs, and what they're not able to, what they don't have to meet their needs.

00:42:31.810 --> 00:42:51.080 Sabina Qureshi: And then all of this will be put together, that is, all the different things, the needs and the inventory, and then it'll be redistributed, so that where there's an excess, that can be used to fill the needs of a country that can't fill its needs. And apparently there are plans already

00:42:51.350 --> 00:42:58.509 Sabina Qureshi: in existence, in the United Nations for exactly this kind of restructuring. Yeah.

00:42:59.120 --> 00:43:18.389 Sabina Qureshi: But it would require countries to no longer see each other as adversaries, to not look upon each other as enemies, but to understand that we all have common cause. We're all trying to live on this planet, and we have to do it together, because the competition that we're engaged in right now

00:43:18.490 --> 00:43:40.639 Sabina Qureshi: whether it's economic, or political or military, it's very destructive. It's destructive to all life. And so, there's a fundamental shift in understanding. It is taking place, again, from the ground up. We, the people, understand this very clearly. The question is, are the politicians listening? But…

00:43:40.640 --> 00:43:55.540 Sabina Qureshi: all great change has always taken place from the ground up. That is all… when I say great change, I mean change for the better. You know, the 8-hour working day, social security, the weekend. These were things people fought for.

00:43:55.590 --> 00:43:58.750 Sabina Qureshi: And it was from the ground up, it was grassroots.

00:44:00.200 --> 00:44:01.779 Linda Marsanico: Yes,

00:44:04.280 --> 00:44:14.280 Linda Marsanico: What about people who don't believe in God? Now, I'm going to start this question with you, because we have to go on break. What about people who don't believe in God?

00:44:14.920 --> 00:44:30.850 Sabina Qureshi: I think that's… you know, there's room for everybody. God is just a name that is given to this vast intelligence that created everything. We don't have to believe in it. I think it's more important to experience

00:44:30.950 --> 00:44:37.190 Sabina Qureshi: I think… blind belief is not useful. I think it's… this is an age in which

00:44:37.190 --> 00:44:59.920 Sabina Qureshi: our minds are coming to the fore. Our ability to investigate, to understand, and really, if you look at science, the sciences have revealed to us the nature of the universe and the world, and in fact, now, science is revealing more about the nature of reality than religion has done in the last 2,000 years.

00:44:59.920 --> 00:45:10.210 Sabina Qureshi: And what is science revealing? Well, it's revealing the underlying unity of everything in cosmos. We're learning about ecosystems, how everything is related, so…

00:45:10.240 --> 00:45:18.760 Sabina Qureshi: all of that is really the area in which our minds are turning now, and it's not really about belief, I think, anymore.

00:45:19.250 --> 00:45:30.370 Linda Marsanico: Very interesting. You may have noticed the music of our station, about the cosmos, that every atom is connected to every atom. It's very appropriate for our conversation.

00:45:30.370 --> 00:45:32.760 Sabina Qureshi: Perfect, audience!

00:45:33.290 --> 00:45:37.260 Linda Marsanico: We do need to take a break, and when we come back.

00:45:39.740 --> 00:45:45.680 Linda Marsanico: I'm going to ask you some… questions about… The soul, and…

00:45:46.210 --> 00:45:51.310 Linda Marsanico: some of what you're doing, in your work. So, listeners, come on back.

00:45:51.710 --> 00:45:53.610 Linda Marsanico: Join us after the break.

00:47:58.830 --> 00:48:11.439 Linda Marsanico: Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the A Train to Sedona broadcast. I'm Linda Marasanico, with my guest, Sabina Qureshi. Sabina, I have a question to ask you before I get to the soul.

00:48:11.440 --> 00:48:12.250 Sabina Qureshi: Okay.

00:48:12.480 --> 00:48:16.310 Linda Marsanico: What can we do if we want to help transform the world?

00:48:16.820 --> 00:48:38.400 Sabina Qureshi: Well, I think the most powerful thing you can do is transmission meditation. It's a group meditation in which we receive these very, very high-frequency spiritual energies that are coming to the planet from other star systems, and these energies are… go… come into us.

00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:50.649 Sabina Qureshi: through our chakras, and then flow out of us again. And in the process, their frequency is lowered as they pass through our physical bodies, which naturally are functioning on a lower vibration than

00:48:50.650 --> 00:49:03.760 Sabina Qureshi: the energies themselves. And this meditation is a meditation of service, because these energies are very much needed by humanity, by all of us, in order to help us

00:49:03.760 --> 00:49:10.070 Sabina Qureshi: through this transition, and to help us grow. And what the Masters of Wisdom do is they help

00:49:10.070 --> 00:49:35.059 Sabina Qureshi: direct these energies, not just through us and through our chakras, but once the energies come out of us, then the masters send them wherever they see that these energies are needed. And once these energies have been lowered in frequency, they can be absorbed by people everywhere, so they are useful then. And so it's a very important work that you do when you do transmission meditation. You assist the masters of wisdom in this work that they

00:49:35.060 --> 00:49:38.749 Sabina Qureshi: Of, of, directing these energies.

00:49:38.750 --> 00:50:01.950 Sabina Qureshi: And I… so I think it's extremely important, very valuable. In addition, it also helps you, the individual practitioner, in your personal growth. So… and it's very easy to do. You sit on a chair with other people in a room, or now… nowadays we do… do we connect also via Zoom, since the pandemic, and you focus on your Ajana center, the chakra.

00:50:01.950 --> 00:50:11.489 Sabina Qureshi: on your forehead, between your eyebrows, and the meditation begins with an invocation called the Great Invocation, which people may be familiar with.

00:50:11.490 --> 00:50:21.880 Sabina Qureshi: It begins by saying, from the point of light within the mind of God, let light stream forth into the minds of men. Let light descend on earth.

00:50:21.880 --> 00:50:45.359 Sabina Qureshi: And the next stanzas talk about the love within the heart of God, the will of God, and at the end, it says, let light and love and power restore the plan on earth. What that refers to is, apparently there is a plan for us, that is, the earth and all life on it, and the plan is simply that we would continue to evolve and grow.

00:50:45.360 --> 00:50:51.659 Sabina Qureshi: And become conscious of ourselves as spiritual beings, and learn to work together,

00:50:51.730 --> 00:51:16.240 Sabina Qureshi: to continue our deepening understanding of ourselves. The fact that nowadays we work in jobs to produce the objects that we need for our lives, for example, in factories, or manipulating, you know, money, moving it around, this is not what we're actually meant to be doing. This can all be done behind machines, as

00:51:16.240 --> 00:51:31.610 Sabina Qureshi: as we're now seeing more and more, we are meant to be free to explore our inner nature, to explore our creativity, to create. That's really the vision for humanity down the road. And we're seeing it beginning.

00:51:32.250 --> 00:51:35.279 Linda Marsanico: And is there a link you have on the website?

00:51:35.510 --> 00:51:38.090 Sabina Qureshi: Yes. Now, should I write it somewhere, or…

00:51:38.090 --> 00:51:40.150 Linda Marsanico: Did you give it to us.

00:51:40.150 --> 00:51:44.059 Sabina Qureshi: Yes, I did. I put it in the chat earlier. Okay.

00:51:44.060 --> 00:51:47.370 Linda Marsanico: Maybe you want to say it right now.

00:51:47.370 --> 00:52:01.700 Sabina Qureshi: Sure, so there is, Share International is the name of the network of volunteers who do this meditation, and so you can go to, share-international.org.

00:52:01.950 --> 00:52:10.199 Sabina Qureshi: That's, the main Share International site. There's also an American site, share-international.us.

00:52:10.540 --> 00:52:23.069 Sabina Qureshi: And I personally also really like the New Zealand site, because there's a lot there in terms of resources, and that's share-international-nz.info.

00:52:25.950 --> 00:52:45.029 Sabina Qureshi: And you will find on the share-international.org site, as well as the share-international.us site, you will find links to connect you with people who are doing transmission meditation so that you can join a group in your area, or you can join a group via Zoom.

00:52:45.460 --> 00:53:00.809 Sabina Qureshi: You can, of course, also create your own group. You simply need 3 people. The minimum number is 3, because this meditation is based on the science of triangles. So, if you have 3 people, you have a group, and you can do this meditation.

00:53:00.810 --> 00:53:02.090 Linda Marsanico: All right.

00:53:02.940 --> 00:53:05.690 Linda Marsanico: Now, we have about 5 minutes.

00:53:07.240 --> 00:53:10.939 Linda Marsanico: What do you mean by the soul, the word soul?

00:53:11.680 --> 00:53:15.170 Sabina Qureshi: Well, the soul, according to the ageless wisdom.

00:53:15.170 --> 00:53:35.410 Sabina Qureshi: is actually a reflection on a lower plane of an even higher vibration or frequency being, which is given the name Monad. And the monad is actually a spark of the divine. Like, you know, if you had a fire, a spark can fly out of that fire, and it can

00:53:35.410 --> 00:53:37.680 Sabina Qureshi: Set fire to another…

00:53:37.680 --> 00:53:48.639 Sabina Qureshi: piece of wood somewhere else that's not actually physically in the fire. So, the idea is that each of us is a spark of the divine. That is, we are

00:53:48.720 --> 00:53:54.310 Sabina Qureshi: bits of God, or bits of that divine, emanating fire.

00:53:55.090 --> 00:53:58.650 Linda Marsanico: They think of us as pieces of the fabric of God.

00:53:58.810 --> 00:54:01.779 Linda Marsanico: aspects of the fabric of God.

00:54:02.160 --> 00:54:02.820 Sabina Qureshi: Yes.

00:54:03.180 --> 00:54:09.000 Linda Marsanico: And I think of, guys as being in every electron in our body.

00:54:09.730 --> 00:54:12.579 Linda Marsanico: Very well. A lot of presents.

00:54:12.580 --> 00:54:15.519 Sabina Qureshi: That's right, we are… we are made of God, that's.

00:54:15.520 --> 00:54:16.680 Linda Marsanico: Yes, yes.

00:54:17.650 --> 00:54:19.270 Linda Marsanico: So tell me…

00:54:23.010 --> 00:54:25.139 Linda Marsanico: What's your next project?

00:54:26.050 --> 00:54:44.550 Sabina Qureshi: Well, my next project is organizing a kind of a Zoom event in which we talk about the connection between spirituality and activism, because the idea that activism is very connected to spirituality seems.

00:54:44.550 --> 00:54:46.700 Linda Marsanico: important to us.

00:54:46.700 --> 00:54:56.639 Sabina Qureshi: Because when you do something to try to improve the world, what is driving you is your soul. Because the soul has only one

00:54:56.640 --> 00:55:18.699 Sabina Qureshi: purpose, and that is to serve, to be of service. So, everything you do to be of service, whether it's helping your mom, or helping friends, or fundraising to help people somewhere else, or organizing in a group to do a community garden, that's all driven by your soul. That's the energy of your soul expressing itself through you. And so.

00:55:18.700 --> 00:55:23.760 Sabina Qureshi: That's something we want to explore, is how activism and spirituality are connected.

00:55:25.460 --> 00:55:30.540 Linda Marsanico: So that's a very interesting project. And how can people find you?

00:55:31.240 --> 00:55:32.070 Sabina Qureshi: Well…

00:55:32.070 --> 00:55:54.699 Sabina Qureshi: go to the links that we already… that I already said, and there will be information, especially on the US site, about, for example, this upcoming spirituality and activism event. That will be posted there, so you can find it there. And if anybody wants to connect with me personally, I can… I can just give you my email address, that's probably.

00:55:54.700 --> 00:55:56.070 Linda Marsanico: Can I ask you that, yes?

00:55:56.070 --> 00:56:12.379 Sabina Qureshi: So it's my name, Sabina, S-A-B-I-N-A, and then the letter Q, like for the queen, no spaces, no dots, at gmail.com. So it's SabinaQ at gmail.com, and please, please drop me a line, I'd love to hear from you.

00:56:13.450 --> 00:56:15.629 Linda Marsanico: The email address is simple enough.

00:56:16.100 --> 00:56:23.220 Linda Marsanico: I want to say that following this broadcast, there is a new show called Beneath the Calm.

00:56:23.380 --> 00:56:33.939 Linda Marsanico: The host is Jacinta Yang, and she is celebrating men, not excluding women, but allowing men to learn to express themselves.

00:56:34.160 --> 00:56:36.870 Linda Marsanico: So you… it follows at 1 o'clock.

00:56:37.800 --> 00:56:45.830 Linda Marsanico: Sabina, I want to thank you for being on the show today. It was informative. I've learned so much.

00:56:46.060 --> 00:56:54.310 Linda Marsanico: And I'm, I'm again impressed with all of your musical and language, influences.

00:56:54.310 --> 00:56:59.450 Sabina Qureshi: Oh, thank you. Thank you, Linda. It was a real pleasure to be here. Thanks so much for having me.

00:57:00.390 --> 00:57:03.320 Linda Marsanico: So we'll say… Goodbye for now.

00:57:03.800 --> 00:57:05.129 Sabina Qureshi: Goodbye for now.
