Eros is the drive of life, love, creativity, and sexuality, self-satisfaction, and species preservation. Thanatos, from the Greek word for "death" is the drive of aggression, sadism, destruction, violence, and death.”
- Sigmund Freud
It’s with great pleasure we sit down to speak with Ty Landrum to talk about his passion for Philosophy and the interplay of Eros and Thanatos. What creates the desire to thrive?

We examine the existential pointlessness of enduring our own suffering… And how to end it? A question that’s plagued humanity since the dawn of time, birthing the disciplines of Yoga and Buddhism.
You see, like all animals are caught in the chewing maw of the lioness’s embrace, eventually, we too will ultimately relax and sink into the void— Yet, we have the unique ability to anticipate this event and give up decades before we ever step into the jungle.
Ty was incredibly generous with us on this subject and we are grateful to him for sharing.
He speaks about how Ashtanga Yoga, quite literally, saved his life.
His PhD was an emotional response to this transformation. An elevation to a higher purpose. You can feel it still in his devotion to the practice.
Sri K. Pattabhi Jois would often quote Patanjali Yoga Sutra verse 12 in the first chapter, “practice yoga every day, with enthusiasm, for a long, long, long time.”
When you hear these stories of how yoga has saved, transformed, created a whole new way of being and seeing the world, you can’t help but feel the pull of the practice… rolling out your yoga mat for one more day, one more time.
A Poem. A Bio. A Life.
“Ty Landrum.
learned yoga from pain and heartache, loss and confusion, old books, lost tapes, full moons, long bouts of silence, cold winds, simplicity, forgiveness, surrender, and the caring words of a few good friends.
He draws inspiration from children, saffron, sage, carob, almonds, chocolate, wise women, gnarled old men, olive trees, deep rivers, steep mountains, quaking aspen, honeybees, love songs, sunrises, laughter and deep breath.”
