The Wonder Land

Episode 11: What is the Rush?


Listen Later

Opening Quote: “No one imagines that a symphony is supposed to improve as it goes along, or that the whole object of playing is to reach the finale. The point of music is discovered in every moment of playing and listening to it. It is the same, I feel, with the greater part of our lives, and if we are unduly absorbed in improving them we may forget altogether to live them.”  ― Alan Watts


*Exploring the urgent seeking energy for things to be different, for a better, next moment or experience

*Questioning the need for that energy and also the need for it to go away

*Exploring how time and the self are the same thought-concept

*The realization that life is more like a symphony and not a finale- yet through conditioning we are taught that the finale must be arrived at as fast as possible.


Closing Quote: "Nature never rushes, yet everything gets done."


The Wonder Land is a deep dive into questioning what has been learned and believed about reality, suffering, and awakening. Join coaches Alex Linares and Amanda Jones as they drop down the rabbit hole with weekly explorations and realizations.
