313 - What happened to the soul in modern life?

In this episode of The Fifth Dimension, Evan McDermod explores The Return of the Soul — a deep, mythic examination of why so many people feel disconnected, restless, and spiritually depleted in a world that is more advanced, productive, and optimized than ever before.

Something essential has been forgotten.
Not lost — forgotten.

This episode traces the journey of the soul through resistance, exile, vision, death, and reintegration, offering a language for the quiet ache many carry but cannot name. Rather than escaping the world, this conversation is about remembering how to live fully within it.

🔥 Themes Explored

-Defending inner truth in a culture that pressures conformity
-Remembering wholeness in a fragmented world
-Embodying creativity, vitality, and inner authority
-Navigating uncertainty, intuition, and the inner night
-Spiritual exile in a materially abundant society
-The difference between survival and belonging
-Visioning a life beyond inherited timelines
-Devotion through small, consistent acts
-Trusting the unknown and beginning again
-Necessary endings and the death of false identities
-Unmasking illusion and reclaiming inner truth

It is an invitation to:
