'When / how do we know it's enough?' Listener question

1) Looking at the world scale problems I often see greed as the main driver which causes the problems. Some days ago after reading your book Sane I got an insight that greed is only a symptom of our phantom self which is perceived separate, lacking, not enough etc. The end of this madness will come only by realisation- lifting awareness of who we truly are, a space where life arises and that the self which is being defended, secured is only a mirage in the desert. 2) I have a question for your podcast :) Looking at self improvement field in my eyes look as tool to get in this endless search to be better, to get better, to feel better. But more as I look at it I see this phenomena produces more problems than solutions. It takes us to this neverending journey where goal or peak of the mountain is even not seen and defined. So I wonder when/how do we know when is enough?

'Are gender identity and sexual orientation before conditioning' Listener question

I was wondering about gender identity and sexual orientation. I guess this is a big part of the identity. We were talking a lot about identity being a learned thing, or a program. But it really doesn't seem to me that gender identity or sexual orientation is a learned program, but much more like an inner knowing. Is there a step before the identity? Like being born a certain way, and only the step of describing what is already inside makes it part of the identity?(Sorry I think my English isn't good enough to phrase this last sentence, I'm not sure if I'm making sense..)

'How can I take a break without letting the ego, the fears, the wanting to hide at home take over?' Listener question

Thank  you so much for your guidance through the last two months. I'm so glad to have had all those wonderful, scary and liberating experiences.And I'm sorry for not replying sooner.. I think this might have something to do with the question I've been hoping to ask..After this stressful time it felt like I needed a break. Looking back at this break I'm quite sure that my ego felt like it needed a break from being constantly under threat. From what I understood so far, this might be a good moment to move into more discomfort, because the ego is playing its tricks.. But how can I actually just take a break without letting the ego, the fears, the wanting to hide at home take over?Something in this question seems fishy but I can't see what it is.. 😂

'I want to heal and I don't know how' Listener question

You speak often of doing the thing that scares us to show us where the 'self' is showing up.  What if I have been doing the thing for over a decade and it's led to horrific anxiety (panic attacks GAD insomnia) It's been a decade now.  I worked for two decades without any problems and then as soon as financial insecurity showed up I had one panic attack and boom, my life forever changed.  I feel like I'm in the deep end and there's not the opportunity to go in slow.  The program still seems to think this is the way I have to earn a living as everything I look into comes to a dead end.  I also know that I worked so many years without this issue, so why not again? I know that my brain has changed and this system is looping around on the same neural pathways that have now been created.  Does it take time for the systems' auto pilot of body reactions to change.  I feel like my nervous system is so revved up all the time that it's stuck in my body and this is now my life, which I want to heal, and don't know how.

'Why is self criticism an ego trip?' Listener question

The self here is still grappling with the stark notion of ruthless self criticism  as an ego trip. I see the necessity to take responsibility for that and at the same time it leads to more self criticism. Who is taking responsibility for what?

Listener question: it's just my thinking

Do you think "3p" has shortcomings?Sometimes it looks to me that the aspect of  inquiring is shut down by saying "it's just your thinking". In the end yes indeed ("direct path")but sometimes to have a better understanding of the body mind system, and where i picked up some believes (religion, work environment etcetera)  the mind is more willing to let it fall away. And ofcourse it is my personal experience. Your teaching is bit more forgiving. That is what i found refreshing in your courses.

Listener question: why do I put my head in the sand about money?

‘Why when I  know something needs my attention (in my case money management) do I push my head further into the sand.  It makes absolutely no sense, the ongoing discomfort as a consequence of this must be worse than actually talking the action?? You have touched on this in the Voice course (remaining in a comfort zone etc) but somehow money ‘seems’ to hold so much more fear?? Why does this happen around money?? Thank you’

Listener question: but I am choosing...

Can we talk about choices/being the choice maker some more! :)There are times when I see it clearly (most of the time, I believe)and there are times when I get confused. For ex. there are many times when I can see my train of negative/painful thoughts and I can see that if I get on it, the ride won’t be fun. So there are moments when I feel “I” am choosing not to get on it by distracting myself by whatever comes to mind in that moment OR when you encourage us to do an exercise, go do the thing, it seems to me that there is “me” choosing whether I want to do it or not based on the information from you. There are times when it feels I am choosing to see something differently, a situation or person etc. Even the recent realisation I talked about where I blamed someone for doing something and then examined myself only to see I was capable of the same. So it looks as though I was looking at myself and I came to those conclusions.  I don’t feel it’s got anything to do with conditioning or any script in the background but purely acting in a moment, one way or another based on the information in that moment. I don’t know if it makes sense so I’d love to hear you talk about that. Where’s my confusion coming from or what am I not seeing? Thank you! ❤️
