Rahul N Singh returns to The Bearded Mystic Podcast after 3–4 months to reflect on spirituality, especially seva (selfless service), humility, and remaining an observer rather than the doer amid praise and criticism. He discusses measuring humility by seeing others as the highest, God, or Guru, and notes how family feedback can reveal ego. He shares that increased reading has deepened his sense of “not knowing,” while non-dual, Formless Awareness feels undeniable and effortless when not forcing outcomes. Referencing his Guru’s teaching on self-introspection (artan), he describes witnessing thoughts, emotions, roles, and challenges without identifying with them, cultivating detachment and peace. He outlines stages of disidentification from body, mind, and even soul/jeev imprints, warning that ego can co-opt ideas like “I am God.” He invites listener reflections and plans more episodes now that his son is in school.
