- Spirituality
If you’ve ever wanted to live a more beautiful, peaceful life, then do we have the Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness show for you.
Today I’ll be talking with Stephen Mitchell, a brilliant author and interpreter of books including Tao Te Ching, Gilgamesh, The Iliad, The Odyssey, Beowulf, the co-author of three beautiful books with his wife Byron Katie, and the author of one of the most beautiful reads I’ve ever had the privilege of coming across, “Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness”
And that’s just what I want to talk with him about today, about a profound tale to open your heart and ease your life.
Key Points Discussed:
How to bring more forgiveness into our lives (03:08) Has forgiveness always come easy to you? (03:23) The inner wisdom that would pull Joseph to do things and that was there for his highest good (10:34) The central moment: When Joseph choose not to blame his brothers for throwing him into the pit (12:10) The freeing realization that can lift condemnation from ourselves and the rest of the world (17:29) What does “May your will be done” mean? (20:57) Using God’s name as a synonym for reality and getting out of the human image of God (24:31) Accepting what is and seeing every situation as the best that could possibly be happening (31:42) How everything that appeared to be the worst thing for Joseph actually served him (37:57) The many years of intensive Zen practice and practice of “The Work” that changed Stephen’s life? (47:36) The meaning of “The Great Hymn to the Sun” (58:53) How important is it to forgive everyone in our lives? (01:02:58) Additional Resources:
