Episode 28: Awakening is NOT a feeling

43:46
In this latest episode, Jared points to the common “mistake” of chasing a particular feeling of happiness, or freedom or love, and missing the truth that is always here. Feelings come and go, but who we are is the space within which these feelings arise and return to. If you chase the feeling, you miss the truth of who you are. Join us for this important topic and find out how identity lurks in making meaning out of how we feel. Music by Chad Crouch; Great Blue Herron.
