Only through viewing all as a gift do we have the possibility of depending on our Higher Power rather than our limited abilities.
What happens when we rely too much on our own skills? The 'Tao of Our Understanding' podcast tackles this question through the story of Chuang Tzu and the monkey. In this episode, guest host Craig M. dives into the tale requested by listener Devin P., bringing to light the importance of humility in the journey of recovery.
The monkey's downfall, due to his overconfidence in his abilities, serves as a poignant reminder that true strength lies in recognizing our limitations and embracing a higher power. This episode isn't just about ancient wisdom; it’s about applying these lessons to modern struggles with addiction. By viewing everything we have as a gift to be shared, we open ourselves up to deeper connections and a more fulfilling, sober life.
Tune in for an enlightening discussion that blends Taoist philosophy with practical recovery advice, making it a must-listen for anyone on the path to sobriety.
