Once again, we find ourselves in the midst of the laboratory of the desert and watching the Fathers' struggle with the passions, in particular the passion of fornication or lust. The beauty in this, of course, is that we are placed in the privileged position of seeing their struggle from the inside; dealing with both the passion and also learning how to engage in the ascetic life in a measured fashion. It is made clear that we are to struggle with our whole being and to be fully engaged in the battle. On a physical level, this means restraining our appetites. We hear that the monks understood that they must not give themselves over to satiation in regard to bodily appetites. They must humble the mind and body in order that they might cling more to God in their prayer and trust in his grace. This meant, of course, the experience of privation; but it also opened them up to the richness of the interior life and the depth of prayer. Therefore, it was not just an act of endurance but also an expression of hope in God and his promises. More importantly we might say it is an expression of love. We are willing to make great sacrifices for the things that we hold to be precious. When we love God and the things of God, when we love virtue and prayer, we will do all in our power to attain it and maintain it. With hypothesis 26, we begin to see the fruit of their long experience in the ascetic life. They could see that they often emphasized the wrong thing in the spiritual battle or became unmeasured in their disciplines to the point of losing sight of God. One can become so fixated on overcoming a particular passion or fighting with the thoughts of the demons, that they fall into pride by failing to emphasize the one thing alone that can overcome the demons, as well as draw the natural into the supernatural; that is, the grace of God. To say that Christianity is an ascetical religion is not to say that the discipline of such a life and the exercise of our faith is an end in itself. The end of our striving is love and and theosis – intimacy, union, with the triune God. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:08:09 Bob Cihak, AZ: P. 184, # 12 00:13:00 Bob Cihak, AZ: P. 184, # 12 00:21:05 Adam Paige: “A clear rule for self-control handed down by the Fathers is this: stop eating while still hungry and do not continue until you are satisfied.” - St John Cassian, On the Eight Vices 00:21:43 paul g.: Reacted to "“A clear rule for se…" with ✔️ 00:21:47 Bob Cihak, AZ: Thanks, Adam. 00:21:50 paul g.: Reacted to "P. 184, # 12" with ✔️ 00:21:52 Phil: Modern medicine also says humans need 12 serving of carbs a day and half as much dairy.

I am thrilled to announce that our new book, the Kindness Daily Reader: Season One, is now available on Amazon. (See Link Below)  Secondly, we are embarking on a new chapter with Season Three of the One Kind Moment podcast. In Season One, we primarily focused on broad topics of kindness and compassion, while in Season Two, we explored areas such as self-compassion, self-help, and self-care. Now, in Season Three, we're shifting our focus to a specific area of self-care that we call Practical Spirituality for Everyone. We'll be delving into topics like spirituality in nature, spiritual intelligence, everyday mindfulness, the science of consciousness, the mystery of life, the science of awe, and managing uncertainty. We're excited to take this new direction and are grateful for your continued support and interest in the One Kind Moment podcast. EXPLORE OUR NEW BOOK!

What is spirituality?  18 months ago I'd never really heard the term, it hadn't crossed my radar, and if it had, I would have assumed it was something to do with religion or yoga or just for the uber ‘woo woo' crowd. But' I've been cracked open like a nut and sold down the river, and it's ended up being one of the most rewarding journeys I've ever been on, and continues to be on.  So what is spirituality? What does it mean? Why should you care?  I'll be honest, I'm still figuring it all out, but I've experienced enough now to share the early part of my journey, and how it has transformed my state of being, my experience of life, and what I now see.  Links to the books I recommend in the podcast:  Awareness by Anthony De Mello: https://amzn.to/3Y6CXbc  The Untethered Soul by Michael Singer: https://amzn.to/3XU8U54  The Surrender Experiment by Michael Singer: https://amzn.to/4esYjoW  The Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman: https://amzn.to/3zKaluO  Mans search for Meaning by Viktor Frankle: https://amzn.to/4gJi2lP Download the Awesome Human Blueprint:  https://www.bencoomber.com/The-Awesome-Human-Blueprint-by-Ben-Coomber  Use the code AH15 as awesomesupplements.com for 15% off Follow me: Instagram: @bencoomber X: @bencoomber Facebook: Ben Coomber LinkedIn: Ben Coomber  Subscribe on YouTube: The Awesome Human

The conversation begins with a humorous dialogue about the culture of giving directions in Ireland. Christine then reflects on recent conversations she's had about feeling lost and the art of finding oneself, sharing insights she's had from Blindboy, Anthony De Mello and Jim Fortin. She explores language, the etymology of "lost," the Dutch concept of "Niksen," and how the pandemic challenged people's sense of direction, encouraging a re-evaluation of the meanings we assign to words and concepts. Advocating for enjoying “days of no direction,” Christine teaches us to how to get comfortable with being lost in new cities, whilst celebrating the unexpected joys of spontaneity and intuition. Pay It Forward:Christine aims to make her online public speaking and pronunciation lessons available to the masses, so everyone has a fair chance to access training that has for years only been available to the "elite and upper classes."

What does it mean about us when we are irritatedWhat does it mean to pull the plank from our eye before the spec of dust from our neighbour's eye? Are we called to not judge? This season, I'm exploring the book "Called to Community," edited and compiled by Charles E. Moore. Throughout this year-long study, I will work through what it means to live intentionally with others. The book covers a wide range of topics, authors, and ideas, that exemplify the diversity of Christian communities.

Happiness Solved with Sandee Sgarlata. In this episode, Sandee interviews Don Joseph Goewey. Don Joseph Goewey is the executive director of the Center for Spiritual Exchange, which is the official archive for all the works of Anthony De Mello.

He has worked with some of the most stressful situations on earth—with people facing terminal illness, parents struggling with the loss of a child, prisoners serving life sentences, and refugees of the genocidal war in Bosnia struggling with extreme post-traumatic stress.

We live in a hurried age, that's obvious. And yet we still fail to grasp how imperative slowing down and living in unhurriedness is for everything that matters in life. In this episode, we explore why and how slowing down matters so much and what it opens up for us. And we explore six practices that you can engage to live in unhurriedness, even if your calendar remains full and busy. Because there's great hope: you can be quite busy and yet become and remain absolutely unhurried in all things.

On today's episode, Anthony de Mello implores you to understand what the drug of approval is doing to you and your ability to love.Source: WAKE UP! - Anthony de MelloHosted by Sean CroxtonFollow me on Instagram

On the 15th episode of the What is a Good Life? podcast I am joined by Benjamin Western, who is the Founder at The Shining Light Project, a trustee at Hope & Aid Direct, and Head of Sustainability at LRQA.This episode is different from the others, as this is more a conversation than an interview, and we are focussing on the teachings of Anthony De Mello.Anthony De Mello was an Indian Jesuit priest and psychotherapist. A spiritual teacher and author of several spiritual books, two of which, Awareness and The Way to Love, have had a huge impact on both mine and Benjamin's lives.In this episode we explore and reflect on the core teachings of De Mello, essentially that our attachments in life are making us suffer. We explore where we as humans are most attached, to possessions, caring what people think of us, achievement, habits, our beliefs, and our proclivity to chase thrills and excitement rather than what brings us real happiness.I loved discussing these themes with Benjamin, who is a wise and thoughtful soul, and it will give you plenty to contemplate in terms of your present attachments in life.Subscribe for weekly episodes, every Tuesday, and check out my YouTube channel (link below) for daily clips and weekly reflections.Running Order: 01:34 Podcast begins02:09 Discovering the work of Anthony De Mello07:07 Attachments are the source of our misery10:04 Our happiness is contingent on so many things12:19 Do you realise what you are attached to?15:14 The hardest thing to accept in his teachings20:24 Exploring an attachment to life25:22 Unhealthy attachments that are normalised28:34 Awareness of attachments 31:34 Letting go doesn't mean renunciation33:46 Do you accept yourself or others as they are?37:54 Being who you were meant to be41:04 What lens do you view the world through?44:34 Be wary of the labels you apply to others46:18 World feelings v Soul feelings52:14 Joy in difficult circumstances55:34 Explore your attachments playfully58:49 Humour in the human predicament1:02:04 What is a good life for Benjamin?For further content and information check out the following: - For the podcast's YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@whatisagoodlife/videos- My newsletter: https://www.whatisagood.life/- My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mccartney-14b0161b4/- Benjamin's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjaminwestern/

In this very personal next several episodes in this series on the LDS theology of eternal marriage and its implications, Val and Nathan talk about their own marriage and how both individually and as a couple they have experienced plenty of soul-struggle in an effort to find the path that celebrates both relational intimacy (in all of its forms) as well as deep commitment to one's own and the others' personal growth. Val and Nathan walk through a timeline that follows their early more orthodox beliefs and practices in marriage and family, its impact, the accompanying suffering (different, but significant for each of them) and their eventual (and ongoing) change of paradigm. This paradigm shift has changed everything...from the way they self define, spend their time, and see themselves interacting in the world--as actors and creators of their own precious lives. _____________________________________Books referenced in this episode: Living An Examined Life by James Hollis and The Way to Love by Anthony DeMello. —————————————————————-Contact Valerie at info@valeriehamaker.com to get on a waitlist for one of her space limited processing/support groups mentioned in this episode. ————————————————————NEW Faith Expansion Support and Processing group forming April 2023. _____________________________________ To financially support the Latter Day Struggles podcast, donate via Venmo @valerie-hamaker (last 4 digits 3447 if applicable) and THANK YOU for so many enquiring on how to support our work! _____________________________________

Religion is something I don't touch on all too much here in my monologues and conversations. I do spend quality time thinking and talking about it, though. One perspective on it that I really appreciate is Anthony De Mello's in his book Awareness. I speak about one specific point he makes here in this episode and why it resonates with me. I hope you resonate and find some value in it, too. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/matt-best/support

Today's podcast is a short reflection on a portion of a book I really appreciate titled Awareness by Anthony De Mello. It's so easy to be carried away by our thoughts and emotions, which can lead us to acting impulsively and trying to fix things that we don't understand. In this episode, I bring De Mello's perspective on this problem to light, which I find to be a useful frame. I hope you do as well. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/matt-best/support

Dave Schmelzer loves life hacks, but has found that they often have a shorter shelf life than he'd hoped. Contemplatives have a surprising answer for why that might be. Life hacks, they tell us, come from a world view saturated in original sin: your problems come from your fundamental laziness that has to be overcome. But maybe we don't need to overcome anything. Maybe we already have a deep happiness that we can access as we quiet down a bit.

Today's podcast begins with a quote from one of my favorite books - Awareness by Anthony De Mello. It's such a fun and eye opening read, which is why I wanted to discuss a paragraph from it today in this episode. I hope that you enjoy it and find the message to be valuable.

They say if you don't do the business, the business will do you. But how do you actually ‘do' the business side? We uncover more than a few tactics today.  It's always exciting to step from one passion to another episode by episode. Today I got to sit down with an expert and scratch my business itch. Gabby Braddock is the owner of No Plan B Consulting, the Next Generation Network, and cofounder of The Vault Music Studio, in Boonton, NJ. She emits an aura of positivity and realism that is undeniable, and I was taken away by her articulation and self-awareness. I was so curious about this, that I had to ask her where it came from.

Researchers have found that happiness is what people want most. But researchers have also found that happiness is eluding most of us.  It's hard to locate a completely happy person. Turns out it's only four percent of the population.  The irony is we have it already. We were born happy. Happiness is our birthright. It's built right into our spiritual DNA. Our brain has evolved neurocircuits to generate it. It's there for the taking.

This week's conversation with Ali Jafarian shares the importance of connecting with your children on an emotional level.  We discuss how he found fulfillment in fatherhood after his son was born. We dive deeper into how to he encourages his kids in finding the passions that bring them joy and how to recognize what to drop. He challenges dads to take on the "nurture" role once in awhile within their family and shares practical tips on how to do it. The strong emotional foundation we build for our young children now will impact generations to come. This is a great listen for dads wanting to deeper their connection with their kiddos. Ali Jafarian is pursing a life of adventure with his wife, Gabrielle, and two kids, Everest and Sepia. He loves to travel and experience new cultures. He prioritizes his health and credits being in nature to one of his greatest teachers. He reads, writes, listens and records to fuel his creativity.

Fixing myself has been something I was conditioned at such a young age to always look for the problems in things.  I grew up and was raised to be a perfectionist.  It has its perks but definitely comes with a lot of negatives.   Many years later, I realized I didn't have to fix anything about myself.  I had to see that I was perfect for who I was and in the part of my journey of where I am at.   With my guest, Don, we discussed these concepts of why we truly don't have to fix ourselves and learned more about what we can do to accept who we are, and learned methods of how to live a more fulfilled life.   Who is Don Joseph Goewey? Don Joseph Goewey is the Executive Director of the Center for Spiritual Exchange, the official archive for the works of Anthony De Mello. Don is the editor of a new book entitled Stop Fixing Yourself / Awake Up, All is Well, based on Anthony DeMello's practical spirituality (released by Beyond Words/Simon & Schuster in April, 2021).    Don is also the author of the Amazon bestseller, The End of Stress/Four Steps to Rewire Your  Brain. He spent six years directing a think tank that integrated breakthroughs in neuroscience into a psycho- spiritual model for rewiring the brain to extinguish stress reactions and amplify the higher brain function that enables a human being to flourish. The model has been successfully applied in high pressure work environments like Cisco and Wells Fargo helping people elevate their experience of work and of life in profound and measurable ways.   Previously, Don managed the department of psychiatry at Stanford University Medical School and headed an institute that pioneered a psycho-spiritual approach to overcoming catastrophic life events, which in 2005 was awarded the Excellence in Medicine citation by the American Medical Association.   How to Connect with Don?

SURPRISE! Happy Friday! The distracting and intimidating messages from today's news and world events have left many of us feeling overwhelmed, uncertain and isolated. We all need mini resets once in a while– something to uplift an inspire us to keep going, try a new idea or take a helpful shift in perspective. I am so happy to announce the return of “Fast Fridays,” a tradition I practiced in the early days of Awakening Aphrodite to share brief moments of inspiration with you. My daily practice of reading something spiritually uplifting each day originally inspired this idea– but as the show got rolling and life became busy, I decided to focus solely on the main content. Now brought back to you by popular demand, these mini-episodes will layer on top of the usual Tuesday full-episode-drops on the last Friday of each month. They will focus on a reading, an inspirational poem, author or saying that I find personally impactful. I humbly invite you to accept this small offering of “soul nutrition” for your moments, days, weeks and month ahead! Fast Fridays were brought back by listeners like YOU– so please keep that wonderful feedback coming! You can leave a review (on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!), share & tag me on Instagram and let's do this together! Today's mini episode features a passage from the Song Of The Bird by Anthony De Mello, a spiritual teacher and psychotherapist who authored many beautiful stories. This excerpt imparts the idea that you are who you surround yourself with. Are you living your story, or someone else's? Are you aware of the heights to which you can soar? Are you holding anything back because of an outer influence? Are there parts of you that are not being expressed? Many long to wake up to the greatness that is their inner authentic self but hold back, waiting for someone outside of themselves to validate it. Today's idea is this: all that truly matters is if YOU recognize and nurture your inner light. Never give up on yourself!

Anthony De Mello encourages us to do cultivate awareness every day, throughout the day. If you remember to do his simple process throughout the day, you will get it. You will become more and more aware and as a result more and more free. Before you believed what society's  programming told you, that once every worldly thing falls into place, I'll find happiness and peace.” Through awarness you'll discover that finding the natural state of happiness and peace within you is how everything falls into place.”  You find that truth through awareness .

The De Mello Spirituality Center executive director discusses the essential theories of Anthony De Mello, beginning the notion that we're overwhelmed by stress and fear and thus asleep the innate joy and happiness  https://demellocenter.com

How much of our challenges, problems and behaviors come from our societal programming?

A radio interview with Don Goewey, the De Mello Center's executive director, on Anthony De Mello's spirituality.  It begins with the fact that only 4% of the population are completely happy. Happiness eludes most of us.  The irony is we were born happy but have lost touch with it. We were born free but have become trapped in limited thinking. We were born with an open heart that stress and fear so easily close. We were born gifted beings of immeasurable worth but often feel not good enough. There is a divinity of joy within us and surrounding us, there to make life meaningful and beautiful and rich, but we've become blocked from seeing it. It's as if we are all hypnotized to see what is not there, and not see what is there. The good news, we can wake up here and now through a simple process of awareness.

In this episode of the Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers podcast, Dr. Steve Thayer and Dr. Reid Robison explore the concept of psychological and spiritual awakening. Is awakening the same as enlightenment or self-actualization? Does it happen gradually or all at once? How does one know if and when you're enlightened?

Hey listeners, have you been working on “fixing” yourself? Well, here's some good news: you can stop doing that right now—and today's episode with Don Goewey will show you why.  Don currently works as the director of the Center for Spiritual Exchange, the official archive for the works of Anthony De Mello (regarded as one of the great spiritual minds of the 20th century) and has committed his life to helping people understand and quiet stress and anxiety, navigate life's challenges more creatively, and live happier, more fulfilled lives. He also recently edited the new book, Stop Fixing Yourself / Awake Up, All is Well, based on Anthony DeMello's practical spirituality, and wrote the Amazon bestseller, The End of Stress/Four Steps to Rewire Your Brain. Don offers many memorable and potentially life changing insights throughout this episode, starting with him telling the riveting story of how his life fell apart in every way and what led to his spiritual awakening after. At the core of Don's mission is his unique psycho-spiritual model for rewiring the brain to extinguish stress reactions and amplify the higher brain function that enables human beings to flourish—a method that will also help you overcome feelings of fear, anxiety, anger, depression, and that feeling of emptiness that can unfortunately characterize modern life. In fact, Don's method has been successfully applied in high pressure work environments like Cisco and Wells Fargo to help people elevate their experience of work and of life in profound and measurable ways. We also talk about the four steps that make up Don's method, how your perception creates your reality, and what to do when negative emotions arise.   TIMESTAMPS: This show is about how to rewire your brain. [01:29] There is a childlike part inside you that has been covered up. [03:31] Don came to his work in pscyho-spirituality after experiencing an extreme period of stress. [07:04] He learned to feel the stress and embrace it rather than have it take over. [09:19] The mind body connection is very important. The quality of your life experiences depends on how well your mind functions. [16:19] Don's situation was desperate and it brought about a big change in his life. He discovered that the things that he thought were working against him, weren't working against him at all. [22:25] Your happiness in on the inside. Don't look outside for it. [25:57] How do you deprogram yourself? The answer is awareness. [28:52] Look at the way you've been put together, all the societal programming that has made demands on you. [34:55] We have a knee jerk reaction to the trifles in our daily life. We are constantly at the mercy of things and people. [40:42] What you are unaware of controls you. Get in touch with your negative feelings.     [42:59] Work towards being non-judgmental. The feeling you are having is programmed into you. [51:21] Humans have the capacity to hold horror and harm along with love and forgiveness at the same time. [56:47] The misperception of threat generates most of the stress reactions that we experience. [01:01:16] Be in touch with your feelings.  Don't push them away. [01:07:18] Remind yourself that this upset will pass. 80% of us are shame based.
