Finding Peace Beyond Fear and Desire | The Michael Singer Podcast

What creates the inner disturbances that cause us to struggle?

At the root, teaches Michael Singer, lie the polarities of desire and fear: the psyche’s need to hold on to what it likes and push away what it doesn’t. In this episode, Michael reveals how inner freedom arises not from struggling with these forces but by allowing their natural flow of coming and going to pass right through us.

About Michael A. Singer:

Michael A. Singer is the author of #1 New York Times bestseller The Untethered Soul and New York Times bestsellers The Surrender Experiment and Living Untethered, all of which are published worldwide. He had a deep inner awakening in 1971 while working on his doctorate in economics and went into seclusion to focus on yoga and meditation. In 1975, he founded Temple of the Universe, a now long-established yoga and meditation center where people of any religion or set of beliefs can come together to experience inner peace. He is also the creator of a leading-edge software package that transformed the medical practice management industry, and founding CEO of a billion dollar public company whose achievements are archived in the Smithsonian Institution.

Lo amo! Increíble como explica! Todos los días escucho algo de él para volver a mi centro de consciencia! Sus enseñanzas me inspiraron tanto que estoy narrando su libro en español de forma gratuita! Al mundo le hace mucho bien lo que enseña

[SantaCruzHappy]

The adds never end here . They are disturbances to the force, and they go on and on and on

[marilynkorver]

JUST relax and release. So easily said……

[NayaleeTalks]

Powerful insights. If the message resonates, find a practice to deepen the awareness in your lived experience. ♥️🌹

Missing the point, he isnt saying there are no instances, such as child abuse when you cant or shouldn't interviene if you're compelled, and truely believe it is needed; he is saying, "you Dont hold on to it" if you go home and continue to be disturbed...you didn't let go. He addresses these kinds of questions in other talks, or his book as well. You take care of you...doesn’t mean you Dont intervene, it means you let go of you're decision afterwards and move on to your next experience.

A five-minute talk stretched to 40 minutes. Stuff happens AND we react unskillfully. It's all energy and just energy. A skillful reaction is to give the ripples space and let go. Release and relax into the awareness of being aware.

But what about the big energy waves? When my loved one left his body, & knew I was messing with that wave but I could not not touch it. Or is it then about stopping the disturbance as soon as you're able to?

Check out Allen c cohen too
Both very enlightening

[NaturesRemedy]

Seems to be out of balance a little when you see a child being abused I think it's important to step in and do something about it not don't touch it so you can keep peace

Please shorten or remove the woman's intro

So I’m mirroring my own thoughts : I create them and then react / respond to them . But I’m the creator of it all .🥹
