Episode notes
Use The Pause Button To Do The Work
- Do press the pause button each time an instruction or line appeals to you and stay paused until you have fully reflected and followed it.
- Anthony de Mello warns pauses may last one minute to several hours or days depending on your need for assimilation.
Depth Beats Quantity For Transformation
- Focus on depth over quantity: transformation comes from assimilating a few exercises deeply, not many superficially.
- Anthony de Mello emphasizes that silence and personal discovery, not the tape content, produce real change.
Make Silence The Source Of Discovery
- Do prioritize personal silence and reflection after listening, because the tapes only trigger discovery; your periods of silence produce the transformation.
- Anthony de Mello instructs that the tape is a prompt but the real work happens in your silence.
