It says: spoiler alert, you don't understand yet, but the solution is altruism and god, neither of those things. So my base level, my base level, is selfish and self-centered, you know.
Imagine flipping through the pages of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous with a couple of seasoned guides. In this episode of 'That's NOT in the book!', Agent X and Brother Ignatia take you on a journey through page 72, focusing on the chapter 'Into Action'. They dive into the often-overlooked spiritual principles that form the backbone of AA's approach to recovery.
But it's not all about lofty ideals; they get real about the dangers of selfishness and self-centeredness, and why altruism is a cornerstone of staying sober. Ever wondered why just going to meetings isn't enough? Agent X shares his own 'aha' moments, like realizing that simply attending meetings and not drinking wasn't cutting it.
He talks about the vital role of finding the right sponsor, someone who can guide you beyond just lip service and help you truly engage with the recovery process. Through their candid reflections and personal stories, Agent X and Brother Ignatia offer a treasure trove of insights. They emphasize the transformative power of spirituality and the importance of diving deep into the Big Book, rather than skimming the surface.
This episode is a goldmine for anyone on their sobriety journey, whether you're new to AA or a long-time member. Tune in for a conversation that's as enlightening as it is down-to-earth.
