Mirror Talks
Welcome to the Mirror Talks Podcast with Bentinho Massaro where we deconstruct some of humanity's most disconnecting and limiting assumptions and offer an alternative: a free state of consciousness—unbiased, naturally wise, and genuinely loving. We will shed a more enlightened perspective on everyday experiences to help anyone willing realize their true potential and inspire a contemporary spiritual life lived in service to all. Say goodbye to the man-made paradigms of distorted ideas. Let’s become pure, free, and actually intelligent once again.

He starts with the teaching: “Know yourself, accept yourself, become the Creator,” which he uses to contextualize the three techniques. We recommend watching episode #03—Become Emotionally Intelligent—as a prerequisite to this epi...

“Service to Others vs. Service to Self” is the first part of a two-episode series based on being of service to others (STO).

In “The Mechanics of Healing,” Bentinho explains in depth how disease, trauma, and ailments of all kinds are purposeful forms of guidance—not random inconveniences—and how the mechanism of healing is the same essential process regardless of what is being healed. He also discusses the 3-Day Process, a model relevant to all transformation, and deconstructs the overused term “spiritual bypassing.”

In The Art of Respecting Free Will we take a close look at respect, what it actually is, and how often humans objectify each other under the guise of honor, loyalty and respect. In this episode Bentinho deconstructs the common assumptions we make within families—something he calls "culturally reenforced opinions," which have nothing to do with respect.

In "Why True Spirituality is Science," Bentinho reveals why genuine spirituality—not spiritual concepts or dogma or lifestyle, but genuine self knowledge—is the evolution of science. This oversight is a blindspot for most scientists not only because it could invalidate certain scientific conclusions, but also because examining this oversight requires radical humility on the part of scientists. In Bentinho’s words, “The true...

In "Become Emotionally Intelligent," we set aside everything we think we know about emotional intelligence and consider a different paradigm:
that emotions are a guidance mechanism designed to expedite our Self-Realization and help us evaluate the validity of our thoughts and beliefs. This episode lays an important foundation for future episodes and for the optimization of your path.
