In this episode, Jenny and her guest Ellen Emmet explore the interplay between the vertical, here-and-now dimension of the spiritual path, and our human experience in space and time.
They discuss:
- The role of exploration of the body in the spiritual path
- Whether freedom, truth and authenticity are prerequisites for happiness
- Body-mind conditioning as universal patterns of the mental realm, analogous to the patterns of the physical realm that are the subject of science
- Dealing with trauma
- When shadow-work is needed
- How to protect ourselves from developing ‘spiritual ego’
- The importance of spiritual friendships
The podcast ends with Ellen describing how difficult circumstances in her life have resulted in a surrender to not-knowing and an understanding that surrender is not-knowing.
