The Free Radical Podcast #44 | Art, Creativity & the Anatomy of Wonder — Lila Vrindavana 4/16/25

Описание: In this episode of the Free Radical Podcast, Swami Padmanabha welcomes Lila Vrindavan Dasi—a visual artist, teacher, mentor, and yogini—whose life bridges the worlds of art and spirituality. Lila Vrindavan's journey began in Russian classical ballet and later transitioned into the visual arts, culminating in a BFA from Carnegie Mellon University. Her deep engagement with mysticism, yoga, Ayurveda, and bhakti has informed both her creative and spiritual practices.

Lila Vrindavan is the founder of Luminous Arts, a sanctuary where artistic expression and sacred exploration come together through community and education. She leads global artist pilgrimages and facilitates an online Creative Liberation Residency to help artists deepen their practice and manifest their visions.

The conversation explores rich themes like the role of play and improvisation in life, the essence of wonder, and the idea of seeing both life and spirituality as artistic projects. Listeners are invited to a heartfelt, nourishing dialogue that celebrates creativity as a sacred path.
