The Siddique Space

A round up of my three current reading piles, some of which might be an inspiration for your next read. The three piles (lovely word ha) fall into books I’ve been sent for work, my own reading, and strange things that have found their way to me that don’t fit into the the other two.

Come with me for one of our walks and talks to explore a question I’ve been asked about protecting our energies if we are starting to live a life of awareness or sacredness. We also look at leaning into a slow-living lifestyle and how that works when we live in the ordinary world. If you have any questions you would like me to explore in future videos and podcasts, please share in the comments bel...

We've decided to take the unprecedented step of sharing the audio of this month's Open Space Satsang on Substack and all Podcast channels for anyone seeking answers at this time. The Satsang is completely unedited, as we are discussing the current events unfolding in the UK at this time. We thought some of you might find it helpful and also that you might like to experience the depth of discussion...

In this edition of The Siddique Space Podcast, we explore living your ordinary life from the true light that is within you and also what gets in our way. This talk was given in in front of live audience and while it centres around the story of my own experience of actually dying and coming back from a terrible illness, as well as the path of awakening I undertook in the lead-up to this axial event...

Welcome to The Siddique Space Podcast We have heard throughout time the call that we should ‘Know Thyself’, and what you might notice is that when this is said, we are rarely told how we might make this journey. All my life has been dedicated, it seems, to understanding the how of things and to living this life from its authentic heart. My work as a teacher simply shares my findings along the way...

In today’s podcast, we look at this question that is trying to hide itself right now but is so obvious and in plain sight. This video comes with a strong warning that it does as questions that many would rather we don’t ask right now. But if our meditation, spiritual journey, and relationship with life are to have meaning, we must ask the questions we feel we shouldn’t. We cannot pretend there is...

This talk was given on 15th September 2022 at Alexandra Palace. In it, you are invited to embrace a journey of profound self-awareness. Here, we challenge the superficial pursuit of information, instead allowing ourselves to be guided towards a deeper understanding of our existence. This talk highlights awareness as the bedrock for genuine love and authenticity, urging us to transcend reactivity a...

I heard a story today that I would like to share with you. During the Vietnam War, an older man by the name of A.J. Muste, who was a lifelong pacifist, stood in front of the White House in North America night after night. Every night for years, he would turn up, holding a lighted candle in a one-person protest. One rainy night, a reporter asked him, "Mr. Muste, do you really think you are going to...

The word “love” rings out like a temple bell within all religions and sacred traditions. Yet the reality of love is rarely brought into our daily sacred practice in a real and meaningful way. It often remains an ideal, while duality and fear continue to be our modus operandi in the world at large. This talk given for The Theosophical of America draws on material from my book Signposts of The Spiri...
