Eternity Doesn’t Take Sides

In this broadcast, Mukti focuses on shifting our experiences from the angst of dualistic thought to a sense of ever-okayness that accompanies the knowledge of one’s essential nature as the Eternal. Mukti points to the energetics of “down and in” vs. “up and out” and explores the resulting sense of perspective and shift of identity that accompany the former. Responding to emailed questions, Mukti also speaks about triggering, porosity, and the pitfalls inherent in the narrative of “ego death,” offering supportive queries, narrative shifts, and tweaks to approaching meditation.

Topics Include:

• Equanimity in the Face of Difficulty
• Letting Go vs. Adding To
• Finding Awareness When Triggered
• Anchoring in the Hara

Quotes:

“When we put our dualistic concepts out in front of us, we reside at a different vantage point.”

“When we rest—not only back, but down and in—there’s a way that we come upon a very curious thing. We come upon a posture of trust.”

“You start to have an appetite for truth—'I’d rather see things truly; I’d rather see things as they are; I’d rather be able to become conscious of them so I can choose different behaviors going forward, so I can get on with going about changing and behaving in new ways.’”

“There are many things that we know when we’re simply at rest.”
