Episode Overview
- Gangaji delineates the crucial difference between psychotherapy and self-inquiry, emphasising the purpose of discovering the truth of who you are
- Hope for transformation is examined, and the freeing realisation when hope is relinquished is highlighted
- Gangaji's profound words offer an invitation to stop fixing oneself and recognise the inherent completeness within
- The episode provides a fresh perspective on self-realization and the unchanging essence of being
You give up hope that you will be saved, that you'll get it, and in that giving up hope before you slide into the hopelessness and the narrative that goes with that, poor me and never and I can't, there is this spaciousness.
What if the path to self-discovery isn’t about fixing yourself, but about realizing you were never broken? In this episode, Gangaji shares a compelling monologue from her recent retreat at Fallen Leaf Lake. She draws a clear line between psychotherapy and self-inquiry, challenging the common belief that transformation comes from external changes. Instead, she invites listeners to uncover the ever-present truth within themselves, a truth that remains constant through life’s highs and lows.
Gangaji's reflections encourage a shift from seeking change to recognizing inherent completeness, offering a liberating perspective on self-realization. Perfect for anyone grappling with the pressures of self-improvement, this episode is a gentle reminder that true freedom comes from within.
