*Episode Description*

🌀 Folks, this is your quintessential deep, raw, and emotional experiencer episode, split into two parts. We do not shy away from the shadow here, and boy did Kevin explore the depths of his journey through abuse, trauma, resilience, and transmutation. In part 1 of this interview, this autistic nuclear engineer—who recently taught a course at the renowned Esalen Institute alongside Rice University’s Jeffrey J. Kripal, PhD—touches on his self-developed Platonic Surrealism framework, calling in UFOs, childhood encounters with Egyptian god-like shadow beings, religion, mysticism, Robert Monroe’s concept of “loosh” energy, symbiotic sentient bio-plasma, and who and what we truly are! In Kevin’s own words:

“I knew that I was transcendent awareness from beyond space and time. I knew it always. So, no matter how hard the world was, I was still me. I always knew it. So, nothing could destroy me!” 🌀
