Chris “Bash” Bashinelli joins Raghu to discuss his inspirational documentary series and how it has impacted his inner journey.

Bash gave up an acting career to exchange with the world and fulfill a higher calling. His documentaries give a personal perspective of what life is like in other cultures, highlighting the similarities we share with them despite all the differences. Bash empowers each of us to become GLOBAL CITIZENS, productive members of our family, and ultimately- the world!

Aspiring Global Citizen (Opening) – Bash talks about his professional and personal journey. He recounts how his father’s terminal cancer and death opened Bash up to a higher purpose. Bash poured his efforts into what became the documentary series Bridge the Gap, which aims to bridge the gap between cultures and share stories.

“I started this (Bridge the Gap) when I was twenty years old. For the past decade, it has been a process of coming into my authentic self.”

– Chris Bashinelli

While making Bridge the Gap, Bash began public speaking. Bash quickly went from speaking to small rooms to huge United Nations Conferences and high dollar Corporate gigs. This quick rise to fame, however, fed his ego and revealed much that Bash has been working on in his journey.

“I was coming from a place of taking action. He was coming from a place of BEING the person that is a good person, and then it ripples out into the world.”

– Chris Bashinelli

“Courage is a VERY important thing.”

– Neem Karoli Baba

Raghu shares a story about the importance of courage. It takes incredible courage to be nakedly honest about ourselves, but essential to moving along the path.

“I used to think I was here to change the world. Now I know the world is here to change me.”

– Chris Bashinelli

Cultivating the ability to be present and in the moment has been critical in Bash’s personal journey. He and Raghu discuss a powerful moment in Mongolia, where Bash was so present in conversation that highlights how important this presence with another person is.
