<p>In this conversation, David Ghiyam shares the spiritual framework that has guided his life for over 25 years—one rooted in the idea that reality operates according to universal spiritual laws, just as it does physical ones. Drawing from Kabbalistic wisdom and lived experience, David explains how the soul’s purpose is not comfort, but transformation, and how life’s challenges are designed to reconnect us with a deeper source of fulfillment.</p><p><br /></p><p>We explore the concept of the “light of the Creator,” the idea of spiritual baggage carried across lifetimes, and why pain, relationships, and adversity act as mirrors for inner growth. David reflects on periods of profound darkness in his own life—financial collapse, loss, doubt—and how a shift from victimhood to responsibility opened the door to unexpected clarity, healing, and abundance.</p><p><br /></p><p>MUDWTR - Up to 43% off sitewide (and a free frother!)</p><p>https://www.mudwtr.com/knowthyself</p><p>[Code: KNOWTHYSELF]</p><p><br /></p><p>André's Book Recs: https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com/book-list</p><p><br /></p><p>___________</p><p>00:00 Intro - David Ghiyam</p><p>04:57 The light of the Creator</p><p>08:25 External teaching vs internal understanding</p><p>12:36 Kabbalah in the life of David</p><p>18:39 What is the source of consciousness?</p><p>26:50 The trap of “needing” energy</p><p>31:00 Ad: Mudwtr</p><p>32:21 Does everything happen for a reason?</p><p>39:43 The magnetic quality of being whole</p><p>52:51 The role of business in our spiritual paths</p><p>59:55 Protecting the seed</p><p>1:09:08 How to practice trust in your intuition</p><p>1:18:18 One spiritual law people violate daily</p><p>1:29:26 Closing thoughts</p><p>___________</p><p><br /></p><p>Episode Resources: </p><p>https://www.instagram.com/davidghiyam</p><p>https://www.davidghiyam.com/</p><p><br /></p><p>https://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/</p><p>https://www.youtube.com/@knowthyselfpodcast</p><p>https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com</p>
