100. Why isn’t everyone returning to ancient ritual? with Isis Indriya

For our 100th episode, we’re bringing you a rare and deeply sacred conversation with ceremonialist, teacher, and ritual artist Isis Indriya — recorded live with the participants of our Egypt pilgrimage container. This wasn’t just an interview; it was a transmission. A remembering. A reorientation back to the technologies, rituals, and embodied wisdom that humans have used for millennia to become living temples.

Isis is one of the most devoted students and teachers of Kemet, divination, and ancient ritual arts that I’ve ever known. Her command of lineage — and her humility within it — is breathtaking. In this conversation, she guides us into what it truly means to be in devotion, to walk as a sacred vessel, and to build an inner architecture strong enough to hold the frequencies we’re calling in.

If you feel the pull toward Egypt, toward ancient remembrance, or toward rebuilding your own inner temple… this episode will speak directly to that place inside you.

In this episode, we explore:

· Why devotion is a technology, not a performance · How to build the inner architecture required for mystical work · The difference between ego-based spirituality and lineage-based service · Why ritual, prayer, and offering were central to ancient Egyptian life · How to listen for your assignment — and how to prepare your body for it · How to become a vessel strong enough to carry the frequency you’re seeking
