When we think of Freedom our minds normally think of some blissful state. But to be truly Free, our Freedom must include a wisdom and a fearlessness. But not the type of fearlessness that we see in the movies. The freedom that I am speaking about comes from wisdom, fearlessness and knowing who we are directly.
If we are going to gain any sense of timeless eternal freedom, we have to be willing to transcend our stories. By stories, I am referring to all the stories we have in our minds about life. All of our conditioning, all of our thoughts about what should and shouldn’t be.
Can we experience nondual freedom, clarity, spaciousness while living in the world? Can we live in a loving and compassionate way with life? In this video, Craig discusses, the freedom that comes through embracing all of life.
The power of therapy and spiritual practice is to give us choices. When we are stuck in our minds, we only see in black or white, right or wrong. My job as a teacher and therapist is to help clients or students open to new ways of being.
