Embracing the Ordinary: Gangaji on Finding True Happiness

It's restful, because you aren't striving, you aren't trying to get the next hit or the next proof, the next success. So it's what I meant when I said: I'm ordinary.
Why do we all feel the need to stand out? In episode #49 of the Gangaji Podcasts, Gangaji and Hillary Larson tackle this age-old question. They dive into the human urge to be special and how it can morph into an unhealthy obsession. Through a lively and engaging discussion, they reveal how this drive can lead to addiction and dissatisfaction. But what if being ordinary is the key to true happiness?
Gangaji sheds light on the beauty of embracing our ordinariness, suggesting that peace comes when we stop striving for constant validation. She also touches on inquiring into our anger and discovering genuine happiness. As she puts it, 'It's restful, because you aren't striving, you aren't trying to get the next hit or the next proof, the next success.' Tune in to this thought-provoking episode to explore how accepting your ordinary self can lead to an extraordinary life.
