I love it when you drop these brutally honest titles 😅 And, I love this concept! I first learned about it when I had to go through DBT. In DBT they call it "Radical Acceptance" There's also a poem I love... I hope it's OK to post here The Undressing by Rumi Learn the alchemy true human beings know the moment you accept what troubles you have been given, the door opens. Welcome difficulty, as a familiar comrade. Joke with torment, sent by the Friend. Sorrows are old rags of clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. This is the undressing, and the naked body underneath is the sweetness that comes after grief.

There is a Brazilian book called "36 Days." It is an account by the author who survived for 36 days alone in the Amazon rainforest after his plane crashed in an uninhabited region, with the nearest civilization 400 km away. For those unfamiliar with the forest, Brazilians affectionately call it the "Green Hell." It is so dense that it is nearly impossible to walk without cutting a path, extremely humid, and incredibly hot, with a flora and fauna that are very dangerous. Throughout the book, he constantly complains about the rain. It prevented him from sleeping and made walking very difficult. Among countless problems such as hunger, thirst, lack of shelter, and the danger of being killed by wild animals, what he complained about the most was the unbearable rain. After 36 days, having lost more than 40% of his body weight and facing numerous challenges, he finally finds a camp of castanheiros, families who go deep into the forest to make a living by harvesting Brazil nuts. After a few hours and having contacted his relatives, he talks to the mother of this family of castanheiros. She tells him, "You are very lucky." He responds, "Lucky? Why?" She explains, "We weren't supposed to be here. We moved to this area because the place we were at a few days ago flooded due to all the rain, and we had to relocate to continue our harvesting." The summary of the story is that the thing he hated the most during those 36 days, and would have given anything to stop, was what ultimately saved his life. Be grateful for everything, even the problems, because they might be the ones to transform your life and help you grow.

I experienced a magical response to detachment/surrender in the Paris airport. I was in a massive barely moving customs line between flights with 1.5 hours until boarding cutoff and realized after the first hour of stressful waiting and not even half way through the line, I would be missing my flight. I said, “Oh well! Maybe I’ll be meeting my future husband in the airport food court.” Then a staff came and opened the ropes directly in front of me and directed me to the business class agent with no line!!! It was so distinct and cool (I made my flight - universe said “no husband for you, bish”)

This video argues that our constant struggle to attain desires and avoid unwanted things is mostly self-inflicted and can be stopped immediately by changing our perspective. Drawing on insights from Meister Eckhart and Seneca, it suggests that suffering stems from our attachment to external things. By accepting and even embracing what happens to us as part of a greater will-whether you call it God, the universe, or life-we can stop fighting and start living fully in the present. This approach aligns with teachings from various religious and philosophical traditions, emphasizing that true strength lies in surrender and adaptability.

I watched some of your videos this morning before I went to the dentist as I knew I has 3 fillings ahead of me . I needed some wise words to calm me down and funnily enough I surrendered my imense fear as soon as I sat in the dentist chair. I realised there was no point being scared as it was beyond my control so I trusted that man who spent years studying people's mouths and I felt great !! I totally relaxed and surrendered to the situation so it's ironic that I identified with your talk about surrendering in this video. Sometimes it's all you can do. .Thank you 🙂🌷

Beautifully explained! Basically, ' Amor Fati'...the love of one's fate, accepting and embracing everything that happens in one's life, including suffering and loss as good or at the very least necessary. I found this teaching after losing my 22 year old son 4 years ago. In Many ways it saved my life. Since that time I have experienced even more "loss" and find it doesn't always get easier to do. You would think any suffering compared to my sons passing would be significantly easier to apply this teaching to my life, but that isn't always the case. Attachments come in all forms and even seemingly mundane ones have deep roots in our identity and ego. Im finding in my own life, this is a PRACTICE... and surrendering sometimes takes time and alot of self love. ❤

Listening to you talk reminded me of this verse "But perhaps you hate a thing, and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing, and it is bad for you. And Allah knows, while you know not." (Quran 2:216) Sometimes, we may resist or dislike certain situations, responsibilities, or decisions because they are challenging or uncomfortable. However, these experiences may lead to personal growth, spiritual development, or protection from greater harm. For instance, someone might dislike a particular job or responsibility, but that very role might provide the stability, experience, or opportunities needed for future success. Conversely, we might be attracted to things or people that seem desirable or enjoyable but ultimately lead to negative consequences. This could be in the form of unhealthy relationships, materialistic pursuits, or habits that seem pleasurable but are detrimental to our well-being or spiritual state. It reminds us to have faith in the greater plan and to seek guidance and patience, knowing that our understanding of what is truly good or bad for us is limited.

Perhaps that's where discernment plays a part? Certainly applicable to moments of acute distress where one's ability to effect change could be hampered or even distorted into fueling an unfavored reality. Helps avoid the feedback loop of limiting beliefs that can result from trying to fight against circumstance and thus give you more time to discern and shape your reality as you see fit.

I am so glad to have found this channel. Such profound ways of thinking. Anything external is a struggle. When we can accept that the only change is within can we progress towards nirvana. The pure essence of our true nature is but a coin flip away (to examine the other side of a coin when we have only seen one side of it), and yet we have yet to pick up that coin to see what may lie on the other side. We live perfectly content with the struggles, even enjoying the struggles. But what if we asked what other existence is there that I have yet to tap into? The struggles are absolutely necessary and act as a catalyst to begin living a life of purpose.

This is the truth, in a nutshell. I’ve never liked the idea of giving up, not fighting, but I can see if I don’t surrender, then I have to fight indefinitely, and like you say, miss every moment. Maybe that’s the resist not evil that Jesus speaks of. That is so hard to understand, but I think you and the other philosophers have cleared it up for me. And, SO excited about the livestream. Congratulations on your subscribers! Thank you so much for these videos.😊

All of suffering is contained in the thought, “I don’t like what’s happening.” When we embrace what is, misery lets go of us.

Not quite. If I don't like something, but I can easily change it, it doesn't cause me much suffering. Meanwhile, things I don't like but can't change cause great suffering. So suffering actually comes from being unable to cause a desired change.

Chinese and East Asian philosophers described the concept as "wu wei" - true happiness comes from accepting life as it is. The farmer's horse runs away. "Oh that's bad!" exclaim the neighbours, but the farmer says "No, it is neither good nor bad." After a time his horse finds its way back and brings along many wild horses which the farmer can keep. "Oh that's good!" "No, neither good nor bad." Trying to ride one of the wild horses, the farmer's son falls and breaks his leg. "Oh that's bad!" "No, neither good nor bad." A war happens and there is conscription, but the son is injured so he is not drafted and is safe from the war. Which seems good? But the lesson is - things that seemed bad were good, and things that seemed good were bad. So better to accept life without ascribing 'good' or 'bad' to what happens.

I'm glad I found your channel. Recently I learned about a book called Letting go by dr. David Hawkins and I'm learning to accept my pain instead of running away from it. It's really transformational, albeit very hard, but definitely worth it.Your video helped me understand surrender and letting go better, thank you. Hope you find success in your work.

Rant: People keep telling me I have to shift my mindset to deal with my depression better and I have been trying hard to keep thinking positively, but over the past weeks, I have gotten worse and I don't even know why. My routine hasn't changed and is actually what has gotten me through the winter and I was feeling quite happy. Not so much now. I know when surrendering has helped me already. DB (Deutsche Bahn - German train company) is always delayed and at one point I was thinking to myself, why I keep checking the time and feeling tense, because I cannot do anything to get the train moving. It has helped a lot to calm down and relax in those moments, knowing, there is nothing to be angry about. Thank you for your videos.

I struggle with it myself but begin to see all obstacles as a lesson and a way to grow. Patience is the hardest to learn now but gradually all things fade away in it. When you smile at death it smiles back at you.
