- How can we keep a healthy mind in times of crisis? In this interview, Eli and Gangaji point out to the fact that surrendering to the naked reality - and to the pain that we can sometimes feel while witnessing the Human condition - can actually be our salvation.
In this episode, I allow you to witness and listen to the questions I ask along my way, and the answers I admit to being true. I share a vulnerable moment of my life in which I get up on stage in the role of the student, and speak to Eli and Gangaji, standing as the teachers.
| ABOUT THE SPEAKERS |
Eli Jaxon-Bear and Gangaji are spiritual teachers and founders of the Leela Foundation. Eli Jaxon-Bear has been trained in many spiritual traditions, from a Zen monastery in Japan to a Sufi circle in Marrakesh, he also ran a clinical hypnosis and neurolinguistics certification program at the Esalen Institute in California in the 80s. His search ended when he was drawn to India in 1990 where he met his final teacher, known as Papaji, a direct disciple of the renowned Indian Sage Ramana Maharshi. Eventually, he was sent back into the world by Papaji to share his unique psychological insights into the nature of egoic suffering in support of self-realization.
Gangaji, her partner, traveled to India to meet Papaji in 1990. In her autobiography “Just Like You” she wrote, "The extraordinary event in this life was that I met Papaji. Until then I looked everywhere for the transcendental or the extraordinary, but after meeting Papaji I began to find the extraordinary in every moment." Papaji gave her the name Gangaji, and asked her to share what she had directly realized with others.
I felt the heartbreak. Thank you so very much for sharing this! I had not considered how the spiritually conditioned belief, “it’s all perfect” was a barrier. Thank you, thank you, thank you

This was really helpful. Thank you for sharing.💕
I've found in my own personal experience that there's a lot of inner resistance to the heartbreak, and that resistance won't fall away overnight. Not for me, at least, maybe it's different for others.
Thanks for sharing. Love this :)
Merci

Than you for this great video. They both give such an essential answer in a short amount of time. Can anyone give the link to the full recording?
Agreed. Years later I still enjoy watching this conversation. Unfortunately the full recording is not available.
No matter how large or open I become, there are immutable, pragmatic COSTS for dealing with the 99.9% of the world that don't GAF about this wonderful conversation. All of you in this conversation seem privileged.. No penniless aesthetic is on YT...
Spinoza the ethics….
There is no world... Tiny mad idea
I dont know why...but they dont sit right.....
