Why can’t I be at Peace and Productive at the same time?

Mar27, 2024 Excerpt from free Wednesday Satsangs (www.acceptingl... ).
Hi and welcome to my channel.
After a lifetime of immense suffering and nearly three decades of all kinds of physical, psychological and spiritual work, something came to an end. All the countless openings, shifts and tastes of wellbeing, emptiness and presence would not compare. There was an indescribable change, a tectonic shift that was exquisitely profound but simultaneously subtle, the recognition of which was immediate and instantaneous, out of time and simultaneously took months and years to begin to articulate…

yes i feel i’ve sort of but up this resistance tone to doing things now because i feel i have to hold onto the simple easy clear moments, the breath etc. it’s like the peace i’ve felt at times is soooo fulfilling, that i don’t want to do chore like things. it’s become a habit to resist i think. but yea……. the silence can’t ever go away. the last couple days have been better. more spontaneous. thanks for your videos.

[@katehiggins9940]

that was really clear though when you said “the Gold in the future moment is not real “! I mean, I’ve acknowledged that many many many times, but for some reason the way you said it really landed. Seeing the desire, for a better future moment, which is a thought., seeing that thought as a thought. Empty.

Maybe it is just that in "meditation" trauma in your body is released, accept the feelings you have and you change

If you’re not, then you’re doing it wrong. Inner peace comes from joy at work. If you don’t find joy in work, find other work.

Having joyful work could be helpful for some, and a lucky thing for many, but the joy, wellbeing and peace that I'm speaking of does not come from activity nor work.

Weird, i find it easy to be at peace and be productive at the same time. the more tricky part is being at peace when all the discomfort comes up and you're doing nothing.

That's great! For some people it's harder to go right, for others to go left.... we usually need to move until it's easier to move than to stop moving. Ride the energy that moves when you 'do nothing'... don't worry about being at peace, dive into all the discomfort with curiosity, what lies there might not be what it appears to be.

This is fantastic.

... as a German Biologist - this is Genetic - no way to “teach or learn” that ever we are “pro Ductive” each moment of our Life always preparing for future events which require enormous Energy and Resources to deal with - to be lazy right now is saving Energy for the Future when I am thrown into a sudden event - most of the time we are in the wrong place with the wrong things vampyring all our resources to sort this out may be a life long process

Thank you for your comment! I'd invite you to trust that something else is possible, something that science is just starting to validate. If you're interested in a scientific perspective on this, check out the video "The Default Mode Network & End of Suffering" by Gary Weber
