Recap from our October 3 satsang:

  • Only special parents can care for special children, because they are aligned with the needs of those children.
  • We need to reframe our experiences so that we are Seekers first, then parents.
  • To grow out of pursuing success and into pursuing Joy (Shreya), we need to take the path of most resistance. Convert these 20 values into virtues.
  • Only if we practice being Joyous, we can share this Joy with all those that we care for.
  • When we accept our own unique personalities and those of others, then we will not waver from this pursuit/practice of Joy (even if we are attacked).

How to practice Adambhitva (Integrity)? 

  1. Identify the ideal we want to be governed by: Idealize who we can be, one ideal at a time.
  2. Harmonize our thoughts, words, actions: Not harmonizing makes us hypocrites, so reflect on how we can harmonize towards this ideal.
