Our whole system inherently wants to go towards integrity and wholeness. Our whole system wants to be healed. And our whole system knows how to do it. Our DNA knows how. And in some senses, we have to get out of the way of our whole body-mind, returning to equilibrium, dropping the trauma body, the body of our defenses and reactions, and allowing the chi body to flow and heal us.
Judith Ragir, a seasoned Zen teacher with over four decades of recovery experience, brings a unique perspective to the intersection of Buddhism and the 12 Steps. In this episode, she focuses on Step 7, which involves humbly asking for the removal of our shortcomings. But it's not just about the act of asking—it's about the profound journey of surrender and letting go of control.
Judith dives into her personal experiences, sharing how these two paths have intertwined in her life to foster deep spiritual healing. She discusses the concept of grace, the divine abodes, and the power of prayer, all while highlighting the transformation that comes from aligning with the universal flow of life. This episode serves as a gentle reminder that true healing is often beyond our individual control and guided by a force greater than ourselves.
Whether you're new to Buddhism or a long-time practitioner, Judith's insights offer valuable lessons on humility, surrender, and the mysterious process of spiritual growth.
