Letting go is at the heart of the world’s spiritual traditions. Not being attached to outcomes, surrendering desires, accepting the present, opening to a higher power, relinquishing the ego, practicing forgiveness — all entail letting go.
On today's show, Peter Russell offers a new angle on this age-old advice. Letting go is not something you “do,” he tells us. It begins by letting in and letting be. He applies this approach to letting go of uncomfortable emotions, distressing thoughts, material attachments, judgments, and grievances. In these, and many other instances, we are being called to let go of our beliefs, expectations, and interpretations. These things exist only in the mind; letting go becomes a change of mind.
