Daniel Paulus 16 Episodes Jul 13, 2026

A podcast hosted by Daniel Paulus that explores two spiritual and psychological traditions side by side: Jungian depth psychology and the Vedic tradition in which he has practised for over twenty years. Rather than treating them as rivals, he presents them as different languages describing the same inner world. Each episode follows a single question, drawing on primary sources and reading them with a sceptical eye. The tone avoids both materialist and spiritual clichés, aiming at an honest, questioning register.
