Don’t Get Even–Get Odd with Steve Bhaerman (aka Swami Beyondananda)

Program Description

Buckle up and put your karma in gear, but beware of too much fasting or you may get stopped by the Higher State Patrol. When Swami Beyondananda was younger, he was struck by enlightening, and it opened his clown chakra. Since then he has been unable to stop the flow of puns and irreverent wisdom poking fun at overly serious seekers of enlightenment. For those on the path of self-help, he teaches the importance of Nothing. He says, “No matter what your problem is, Nothing will solve it instantly.” and gives Nothing Trainings “They send me the check, I don’t show up, and then they have free time. This works very well.” He offers sage advice about fasting “No—it’s already too fast. I suggest slowing.” stock-market advice on whether or not to buy futures “Buy presents. It’s more fun,” and too much more to miss this playful interview. (hosted by Michael Toms)
