In this podcast episode, Amoda Maa is in conversation with Kavi (host, husband, and co-founder of Amoda Maa Foundation) about how embracing uncertainty and the dissolution of the ego can be profound gifts on the journey to inner freedom.
By accepting life's inherent impermanence, a transformative resilience emerges, where feelings and experiences are no longer held as personal identities but as natural waves within open awareness.
This journey invites a life lived in silent awareness and surrender, where each moment becomes an opportunity to meet reality without resistance or the need for certainty.
This is the short piece Kavi read at the beginning of the podcast.
FREEDOM BEGINS WHEN THE CRACKS APPEAR.
‘Freedom begins when the cracks in our inner world appear.
When it dawns on us that every belief, opinion, hope, expectation and need is built on shifting sands.
When the psychological structures that uphold a self-identity based on inherited beliefs are seen as a cover-up of our innermost truth.
When the knot of ego starts to untangle itself, because holding it together is exhausting and futile.
When our inner world starts falling apart — often triggered or amplified by the outer world seeming to fall apart — we can finally meet life from the unknown. In meeting life from the unknown, the mind can gently bounce back from its grip on reality and fall into its true home as being-ness.
It’s a willingness to meet reality without an argument, without resistance, without grasping for certainty.
It’s the willingness to fall — moment to moment — into silent awareness.’
