    Ep. 127 - The Wisdom of Anger: Seeing the Beloved in Everyone (Even When Stuck for Hours on Customer Support)

    Through the selfless practices of Tantra and Guru Yoga, RamDev outlines how to have a conscious relationship with anger rather than allowing it to consume us.  Today’s podcast is also brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/beherenow and get on your way to being your best self. This time on Healing at the Edge, RamDev gives a talk on: Having a neutral view of anger (not good v. bad) and consciously allowing ourselves to feel it Recognizing anger as a valid response to the state of the worldSeeing all beings and experiences—even those that trigger anger—as expressions of the DivineNoticing that we are often not angry for the reasons we think we areLessening one’s self-absorption as a key point of the spiritual path Cultivating gratitude and appreciation for everyone we encounterExploring Guru Yoga: merging with the guru’s wisdom and presenceRealizing our inherent wholeness and receiving blessings from the guruBecoming nobody so that there is no one to become lost in angerTransmuting outer devotion to tantric, inner devotionFeeling anger and sadness without becoming consumed by itRemembering that the same shakti fueling anger can also power creativity“Anger is not good or bad. Anger is often a reasonable response to what is going on in the world. Yet, it is a difficult emotion because it’s so hot, and it’s often very sudden. In Buddhism, fear and anger are thought to be the same emotion.” – RamDev  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Ep. 126 – Staying Awake When Feeling Neutral

    As a path to eternal vigilance and ultimately, cessation of suffering, Ramdev encourages us to tune into the present moment during times of mundanity and neutrality.  Today’s podcast is also brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/beherenow and get on your way to being your best self.  In this episode, RamDev offers a balanced perspective on: Practicing awareness during neutral, mundane, or transitional momentsThe four Buddhist foundations of mindfulness (body, mind, feelings, dharma)The three Buddhist characteristics of existence (impermanence, suffering no self)Working skillfully with neutral states so that we are prepared for both joy and adversityEmbracing eternal vigilance as a tool for inner transformationObserving the process of thinking instead of getting caught in thought contentAsking the powerful question: “How alive do I want to be?”Practicing loving-kindness (metta) and checking in with our inner states and levels of connectednessShifting our mental habits to move from unconsciousness toward greater conscious awareness“What I notice, if I am not paying attention to neutral states, that almost always there is this eternal monologue going on and it’s a way of the ego saying ‘I’m here’. One of the most direct practices I have found for not getting lost in that inner monologue during so many of these neutral moments is learning the practice of watching the mind—Not what you're thinking about, but being aware of thinking itself.” – RamDev See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Instead of gradually wearing away our resistance to the emotion or a little more quickly wearing it away because we're adding compassion, we can instantaneously transmute it because our heart is so open. There's a sense of even worship or communion, that even this emotion is an expression of the divine." – RamDev See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

One of my main jobs as a guide is to tell people to sit still and be with that demon for a little while. Lean into it. Compassion can only arise after there is direct contact with the quality of suffering. You can't short-circuit that fundamental step. You can't heal something until you can meet it directly, nakedly, intimately."– RamDev See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It is already within us waiting to be recognized.” – RamDev See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
