The Fire Within: Living by Inner Flame versus Living by Script in Writings, Films, and the Self
Do you want to live by inner flame or by social script?
Join me for a six‑week course hosted by Morbid Anatomy exploring the tension between lives shaped by social scripts and lives guided by an inner flame. Together, we’ll look at those who follow the rules, those who quietly burn from within while remaining part of the world, and those who burn without apology.
Many of you feel an unnamed longing to release your inner flame — the part that remains even without a witness, the still burning beneath all masks — from the weight of expectations that once promised belonging. Tired of having to feel, act, and think a certain way to be accepted, you sense something stirring beneath that fatigue: deeper, steadier, more alive. This course invites you to make space for that depth and coherence to take root.
Through lectures and discussions of films, fiction, and spiritual and philosophical writings, we’ll explore ideas spanning sacred geometry and desire, AI and the scripted human, repression and release, and the difference between an embodied flame and its aesthetic imitation.
This course grows out of my own metamorphosis, and encounters with the luminous void and sacred geometries that forever changed how I perceive consciousness. What I share does not come from theory alone but from lived transformation that continues to unfold as embodied insight.
Starting June 18, 2026.
