Episode notes
Step Back To See The Bigger Picture
- Life expands far beyond your immediate desires and fears; step back to regain perspective.
- Michael A. Singer says spiritual awakening begins by realizing you are a tiny part of an immense universe.
You Can't Replay The Same Moment
- You habitually re-run past positive and negative experiences and try to force the outer world to match them.
- Singer highlights that clinging to replayed experiences causes ongoing struggle because moments cannot repeat exactly.
Feelings Pass Through, Don't Become You
- Feelings are natural and transient; enlightened beings feel anger but don't get stuck in it.
- Singer points out the high state is allowing emotion to pass through like riding on water.
