Episode 36: What you resist persists, Scott's eating "way too much garbage," and Jacob's preternaturally large head

Episode 36: What you resist persists, Scott's eating "way too much garbage," and Jacob's preternaturally large head

In this conversation, Jacob and Scott talk about what do to with feelings of hopelessness, and how to know, not that it’s always possible, whether you’re rooted in deep acceptance or deep denial (They can look the same.). They discuss the “come-down” from transformative experiences and how tricky it can be to integrate a powerful event into your day-to-day reality, and how much self-grace is necessary while doing so. The friends responded to a listener’s question about worthiness, lack, and feeling less than, focusing on the distinctive voices of the heart, mind, and soul.

A question to consider: How would your life look and feel different if you were to accept that every single thing about you is a natural reflection of the human experience?

****

Many spiritual people are involved in a radical denial of what is happening.

They want to transcend it, get rid of it, get out of it, get away from it. There’s nothing wrong with that feeling, but the approach doesn’t work because it’s escapism in spiritual clothing. It’s wearing spiritual clothing and spiritual concepts, but it is really no different than a drunk in the gutter who doesn’t want to feel the pain anymore. When you abide and accept everything completely, you automatically go beyond.
