As of the last few weeks I’m deeply inspired bij Sadhguru (Jaggi Vasudev), a wise Indian that consults the UN and (tech) companies as spiritual counsel. He has a lot of content on YouTube.
What intrigues me and sticks with me now for the last days is the ‘experience from within’. I already knew that we’re experiencing life with our brain (our inside). But having heard some speeches of Sadhguru on this topic, it gains new depths.
We experience everything from within. And this means we can fully steer our experience. It means that if there’s an enemy that’s always the enemy within (unless it’s physical, but it rarely is).
It means that shame, guilt, frustration, stress and anxiety are as real as they are constructive: they are not.
We have the endless opportunity to live a joyful and grateful life where the goal is the path.
Even when we have to overcome things that we’ve been taught to be ashamed of. Even when we fail. Even when we lose every day.
Because when we perceive anything as winning, we can enjoy everything.
