Rewiring Your Mind: Roger B. on Spiritual Solutions and Artificial Intelligence

I cant fix a problem with the same mind that created it! Self cannot help self! I have a false self, created by the conditioning of my culture, that says the problem is I need more! more____,more_____,more______ but this false self doesn't let me see the false promises of the world.
Imagine trying to solve a problem with the same mindset that created it. In this episode of 'The Gathering', Roger B. dives deep into the concept of the 'false self'—a version of ourselves shaped by societal conditioning, always chasing 'more'. He argues that this false self blinds us to the empty promises of the world, driven by fear and a sense of lack.
Roger brings over 43 years of recovery experience to the table, sharing wisdom from sources as varied as the 12 Steps, ancient texts, and modern science. His central message? You can't fix a problem with the same mind that created it. Instead, Roger advocates for embracing a higher power to guide us through life's challenges. This episode tackles heavy topics like alcoholism, addiction, fear, shame, and guilt.
Roger's insights into these issues are both profound and accessible, making them relevant not just for those in recovery but for anyone looking to lead a more fulfilling life. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing our 'false self' and letting go of it to make room for spiritual growth. One standout moment is when Roger says, 'Unless it's in you, do you get what I'm saying? No, no, that's a projection of my fear and my shame.
So I'm not my thinking; I'm that which is watching the thinking'. This thought-provoking perspective invites listeners to reconsider how they view their own thoughts and emotions. Whether you're battling addiction or simply seeking spiritual enrichment, this episode offers valuable insights into how spirituality can help you navigate life's obstacles. Roger's blend of personal anecdotes and universal truths provides a refreshing take on overcoming challenges through spiritual means.
