In which I continue to speak about yang derangement syndrome from the POV of Daoist nondual animism and decolonial critical pedagogy.This is likely a 3- or 4-part series released in May, June & July/August 2025.You can see video and supportive materials on my substack, free and premium tiers and on my patreon.

This is the audio version of the monthly talk i give to premium subscribers on my substack thenightgarden.substack.com.In this episode, I talk about the Daoist (nondual animism) historical ideas & protocols about the month of May, which begins the summer season in the northern hemisphere. I add to this a critical pedagogy lens (ala Paolo Freire) to unpack what I call the "yang derangement syndrome" epidemic in the western, colonial, post-modern worldview and culture.If you want to go deeper, I have the substack, a patreon where I teach classes, and private sessions.

This is an excerpt from November 2024's Night Gardeners monthly lecture on Daoism and nondual animism that I host for premium subscribers of my Substack The Night Garden. thenightgarden.substack.com

This is the 30-ish minute introductory from October 2024's class that i hosted on substack for premium members of thenightgarden.substack.com. In it I speak about the BIG WHYS of practice, even if we are doing something very basic and even if when we practice, we "feel bad". This is how I approach decolonizing the modern human mind and perception.

dare carrasquillo interviewed by nico Oppression & Addiction w Dare Carrasquillo. Today’s chat involves many subjects from the concept of the self from a TCM Perspective, history of shamanic traditions, creativity and its polarity, possession, to how oppression is linked to addiction within societies. We discussed Gabor Mate’s book “In the Realm of the Hungry Ghost,” and critiqued the way addiction is treated in the modern medical system. Drink tea and be well!
