“Know thyself” is one of those ancient spiritual bits of wisdom that most of us have heard. And no one else can give you the answer to that question of who are you. That is something each of us has to do for ourselves — to close our eyes, turn inward, and spend a significant amount of time understanding who we are, ever-changing in this ever-changing moment. What is the…

From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, I had an interesting week. Imagine you’re out of the country for a few months. You rented a parking space at a storage facility to park your car. Then one day you get a call from the storage company that they are under new management and they can’t find your car. They tell you the name of a towing…
Send me a message Feeling like everything is falling apart? It might not be a crisis — it might be your soul waking up. In this podcast, I explore why a midlife crisis is often the first step toward a profound spiritual awakening. We’ll discuss the signs of this transition, how to navigate the existential dread, and how to find lasting peace through meditation and self-discovery. If you’re questioning your…
It’s important to understand that we are all people, and there is no “them versus me.” Bad people think they’re good people, and good people can think they’re bad people. It depends on what day you see someone. People are both. We’re human beings, and there is no me versus them. That separation is part of the creation of conflict, an illusion of duality that makes us feel superior and…
From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, What did you do this morning? Before your real day began? When it was just you, your choices, your time? Was it enriching? Life fulfilling? Energizing? Healthy? Productive? Peaceful? I have not always been great at mornings. I would start the day scrolling negative things on my phone, like the news or social media. Or check emails and see…

From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, Often in life, our desire for happiness makes us even more unhappy. When I first went off on my spiritual adventures around the world, I was traveling alone. After a few months of being on my own, seeing a group of friends talking and laughing would make me jealous and sad. Being alone didn’t make me sad. Wanting happiness…
Human beings are remarkably good at thinking. We are so good at it that we do it whether we want to or not. We do it practically 24/7. At least every second of our waking life is practically 100% consumed by thinking. Unless we’re doing some activity that forces us into the present moment, we are pretty much always lost in thought. Those activities that take us out of our…
From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, Life is action. We live in a dimension of action. Every atom in this physical universe vibrates trillions of times per second. Taking action, working hard, making choices, repairing relationships and physical structures, and taking care of ourselves and others, are required of us constantly. The more we resist action, the more we suffer. Why resist a natural part…
