In this expansive conversation, Jules sits down with Ra Netjer, spiritual awakening mentor, ordained Buddhist monk, and healer, to explore what it truly means to remember who you are. Ra Netjer shares the story of his spiritual name, gifted during a desert ceremony on the summer solstice, and the flood of past-life memories in the Egyptian mystery schools that followed. He takes us through a childhood steeped in healing and clairvoyance in South India, a vow made to the Divine Mother at age five, and a journey through multiple wisdom traditions in search of the one truth at the heart of them all.
He also reveals how writing code became one of his most rigorous spiritual practices, how his monastic ordination on Mount Shasta transformed him invisibly from the inside out, and why the ego’s greatest weapon against awakening is self-sabotage. Along the way he shares his foundational Big Nose Llama practice, his three-pillar Integrated Awakening framework, and the power of forgiveness, gratitude, and community on the path to genuine transformation.
Ra Netjer is a spiritual awakening mentor and ordained Buddhist monk dedicated to guiding others through the discovery of who they truly are beyond ego and conditioning. Born into a family of healers in South India, he grew up where energy and the invisible dimensions of reality were entirely ordinary, developing clairvoyant and healing abilities from a young age. Over the decades that followed he studied with two enlightened teachers across multiple traditions, including Advaita Vedanta, Kriya Yoga, Sufism, and Buddhist mysticism, and was ordained as a monk in a ceremony on Mount Shasta.
He is the creator of the Integrated Awakening process, a mentorship framework designed to bring awareness, understanding, and embodied transformation to those navigating the spiritual awakening journey. His teachings, free Spiritual Awakening Masterclass, and Integrated Awakening app can all be found at awakenwithra.com.
