Power without love is reckless and abusiveand love without power is sentimental and mimic.
We can sort of embrace the mystery there and they're not knowing actually what we're seeing this made experience of life is the right one because too often.
Because too often people who would see a more loving world tend towards Spiritual bypassing and latch on to convenient ideas about how oneness or love or just expressing love and it's going to make things better and it's quite clearly not enough to do that.
People see that kind of talk and consider a reason to dismiss all discussion of love or any you know encouragement to be more loving and what they do.
You know, speaking from Deep love, but also a deep understanding of suffering, too.
Attention, empathy, compassion, love we can’t really only talk them into being there are practices that we can do you know there are daily forms of connection.
Jamie asks himself, what lies between power and love?
For him, it’s not about assigning oneself to a pool of power or love.
It´s about a kind of superposition, like in quantum physics; we are both simultaneously and neither at all.
We explore how love can be taken seriously without discrediting itself and what role power plays in this; we talk about game denial, game acceptance and game change.
As well as about idiot compassion, the practice of creating circles of suffering and harm.
Ultimately, it’s all about loving power and powerful love.
And now, enjoy listening
