Summary

Spirituality is inner evolution—adaptability to reality instead of struggling with the outside world because you can’t handle it. Begin by relaxing and releasing inner resistance the moment it comes up, rather than storing life’s events as past negative impressions. This will gradually harmonize your inner energy flow with the unfolding of life. Willful action, when needed, will come from a state of inner clarity, and over time, this elevated state will become a permanent state of being rather than a passing experience.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Michael Singer podcast presented by Sounds True in partnership with Shanti Publications.
0:22.5	For more information about Michael Singer's work, access to all prior episodes, and information
0:28.7	about upcoming releases, we invite you to join us at Michael Singer Podcast.com. Jayagridath, Jaymasters.
1:01.0	One question that is very prominent in the questions people ask,
1:06.0	and I like it because it just shows a real depth of sincerity,
1:09.0	is if I'm sincere and I understand this whole
1:12.8	thing with these blockages and that they're ruining my life, and I want them out, and I know
1:19.5	it's going to be difficult, but I don't want to go the rest of my life with all this stuff in
1:23.8	here. That's an awake and spiritual beings. Not someone who says, I want to see the
1:27.7	light, I want to touch God. And so it's all said and done, you'll merge. But it ain't said
1:33.5	done. And if that's what you're doing, instead of working on getting it said and done, I don't
1:38.7	say you're wasting your time, but you're having some spiritual experiences. And after all these years, I've been 55 years,
1:48.0	spiritual experiences, yeah, they're nice,
1:50.0	you know what you do with spiritual experiences?
1:52.0	Look at me, you tell other people about them.
1:55.0	Because they cease to do anything for you
1:57.0	is something you had at some point.
2:00.0	And so it's not the spiritual experience, that's the
2:02.6	understanding of why you don't live there. An experience is something that comes and goes. Did you
2:09.7	know that? A state of being doesn't change. You have a state of being. It's called ego. Your state of being is me. I, me, and mine. But I like, what I don't like, what I want, what I don't want, but I'm sending boundaries, because this isn't fair. I shouldn't have to handle this. And what I want with my life and what kind of job do I want that will give me a passion, what kind of relationship do I want that will make me happy? I mean mine, I mean mine, I mean mine. We're so lost in it that we don't understand.
2:37.8	I keep telling
2:38.4	it. It's like a fish doesn't know they're in water because that is the environment they live in.
