PART 1 Transcending Suffering (Day 1 – 5)
Your path begins at the doorway to unconditional joy: which, as unlikely as it may seem, is through an authentic understanding of the nature of suffering. You’ll join Sadhguru on an exploration of what really causes suffering, why you experience suffering, and how you can transcend it – without depending on anything or anyone but yourself.
Highlights include:
- The true source of all suffering: most people never truly understand where their suffering comes from – and knowing it is the first step to never facing it again.
- How change in your life can cause unnecessary suffering: change is inevitable, but suffering isn’t when you embrace this new way of facing any change – from minor readjustments to seismic shifts.
- How your intellect traps you in suffering: the human intellect is a beautiful gift – but the vast majority of people mismanage theirs in a way that courts deep suffering. Discover how to break free of this trap.
