Tony Samara - 'A Modern Shaman's Journey' - Interview by Iain McNay

[@mashort07]

The fact that Tony went down this path despite being raised in a wealthy family gives me all the more respect for him.

[@clintstryder1131]

That mic is top notch! It picks up the molecules in the air!

[@TheSmack2007]

“My parents were very busy. I admired my Grandparents. “ Another way of saying my parents were neglectful, and treated me as a side thought. 😢 Love his voice though.

[@gullwingstorm857]

Judgy much.

[@SCHughesMSP]

Let's not speculate too much, my dear. He does have a tasteful way with words though, that bit is true :)

[@zeddeka]

@@gullwingstorm857 more of an observation than a judgement. Clearly something has gone wrong somewhere, otherwise he wouldn't be so into this - what psychologists call "spiritual bypassing"

[@flamcity]

Your grandparents were retired

“....I think the miracle of following your heart, changes everything... even the physical structure”

[@MargaridaMarmelo]

Thank you Tony and Iain. Love and Gratitude! Margarida/Radha.

[@laurenthompson8866]

I wonder what his parents did for work in Egypt. Were they Archeologists, missionary workers, diplomats etc? It's interesting he was intuitive at a very young age which is rare. Kudos to you Tony for finding your vocation to help others!

[@flamcity]

They were diplomats

[@FamilyFunForever2013]

Wow! Thank you Tony for helping us to discover the truth the lives inside our hearts. Your story is very interesting and an inspiration for us all.

[@somethingnorhing4920]

Excellent asmr.

[@Somespatanwarrior]

Ok this was useless to me up until 45:00. If you wanted to listen to anything that had to do with shamanism go to 45:00, however if you want to hear about this guys life story and about zen budhism then just watch the whole thing. But again to save your time go to 45:00 for listen to him actually talk about shamanism.

[@RachelEMacD]

I'm only at 39 min and I think it's fascinating, and wonderful already :) Hmm, so here's an interesting realization. He's just very honest about his truth, which is very different from most people, and it touches all sorts of people and is going out like ripples in a pond. and does not seem to be doing anything to try to make money, just giving, and then what he needs is there for him. We can do that too. No waiting till the money's there, just following our truth. I get it now :D

[@yohei72]

"does not seem to be doing anything to try to make money" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[@LandsLife]

I could tell by the thumbnail his voice was going to be soft as silk, seems I was right.

[@catmoon2009]

yes I saw his thumbnail and something .....soft as silk well said

Cult leader

[@spiritualanarchist8162]

whatever one may think about 'tony's message'. I can see he had 'professional guidance 'So how to present himself. , How to use ones voice ., Neutral body language , etc,etc.' I do not know what that means, But it makes me somewhat skeptic...

[@eKh79]

Spiritfull Anarchist He does not appear to be authentic.

[@Emdooey]

Bottom line he’s just a guy with a privileged upbringing and an inflated sense of worth. Meh.

[@halwarner3326]

Jealousy is a wasted emotion

[@eKh79]

@Gil Monteverde LOL! Hahahahaha ... all those pretty bitches!

[@flamcity]

His grandparents were retired….his parents were working

[@eKh79]

The bid about politics ... he did hold back tere quite a bit. And he is very well (media) coached. Fair enough ... he needs to make a living, too.

[@angelaleemcintyre5202]

who was the author and what was the name of the book written about Tony? Ian showed it at the beginning but didn't say the title and I've googled the name I thought I heard him say: Naomi Cheryl?? but no luck. Thank you!

This guy is the most empathic person, most kids his age would not have seeked answers in such a profound way. Hes a prophet

[@zeddeka]

He's a cult leader

[@sophianaqvi3697]

There is no prophet but MOHAMMED PEACE BE UPON HIM

There is no Lord but Jesus Christ

[@zeddeka]

This is an absolutely classic example of what psychologists call "spiritual bypassing". Retreating into spirituality and religion rather than face the real underlying issues.

[@yohei72]

Thank you for alerting me to this term. It encapsulates so much that bugs me about people of this type. There’s a meditation guru extremely popular on KZbin named John Butler who exemplifies it like no one else I’ve encountered.

[@patrat23]

​@@yohei72yeah but him endlessly rambling about stillness still relaxes me

Tony made the decision to be celibate for life at age 18? That's definitely total.

[@zeddeka]

Classic example of what psychologists call "spiritual bypassing". Hiding behind spirituality and religion rather than address the real underlying pain.

[@TMan10103]

@@zeddeka spiritual bypassing and spirituality are two completely different things. Spirituality is about addressing trauma and then alchemizing it into wisdom. Also to the original commenter. I’ve had experiences where I’ve met beings out of body who I never knew and then I researched them and found out that the names were accurate and children are usually the most perceptive. In deep states of meditation you can also see visuals with your mind. Clearer than the physical reality. Much clearer. Might sound strange but the phenomenon is everywhere. I know this because I’ve experienced this. I am not schizophrenic.

[@yohei72]

@@TMan10103 Hilarious. When you have to end a supposedly true story with “I am not schizophrenic,” that should tell you a lot.

Oh and try to disprove Dolores Cannon, the lady who hypnotized thousands of people and they all said the same thing, oh and search “what real kundalini awakening is like” try to disprove that. You can’t. Look up dan winter who proves the physics of consciousness. You can’t disprove him either. Oh and research heart math and everything they discovered. Try to disprove Ram Dass and all the stories that people have with his guru who could literally read minds.
