Mindrolling Ep 482

Written By Sharon Salzberg

Moving out of constriction and into connection with reality, Sharon reunites with Raghu Markus to talk about her new book, Real Life on the Mindrolling Podcast.

“When we are out of harmony with the truth, we are not realistic. Everything is distorted, we reach for happiness in all the wrong places, we let other people define us instead of finding out who we truly are.” – Sharon Salzberg

In this episode we hear Sharon Salzberg and Raghu Markus explore:

  • How to 'get real' and see the truth 

  • Constriction versus connection

  • Being bound by habitual patterns

  • One-pointedness 

  • Dealing with greed, hatred, delusion

  • How to avoid spiritual bypassing 

  • Toxic optimism

  • A reinterpretation of Dharma
