Nate Smith is a multidimensional being. In this dimension, he's a young practicing hindu whose guru is the hugging saint, known to many as Amma. He’s a Sanskrit scholar that maintains an ayurvedic clinic here in Albuquerque, and currently studies the pakhawaj drum under Phil Hollenbeck, a student of Ravi Shankar.
Today I talked to Nate about what it means to have an ecstatic heart, spiritism as a form of creativity, and spirituality as an uphill trek into the darkness.
