Number 1: Being Yourself | The Wheel of Doubt
Do you put more value on your doubting mind than you do on the reality of what is always present?" In this episode, Gangaji speaks about "the wheel of doubt"—addressing the way the mind generates doubt from the "fear of being open, or being still, and not knowing." While doubt has a very legitimate purpose in our lives, when we are caught up in a pointed search for certainty it can become a life-long source of suffering. The invitation she offers is to recognize the activity of the mind and to recognize what is always here regardless of what thoughts are passing through our minds. Meet with Gangaji live for an online public meeting on Saturday, September 5 at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time—Sunday, September 6 at 10:00 a.m. AEST in Australia.

Number 2: Being Yourself | You Cannot Think Your Way Home
"Who I am doesn't need to be thought. It's here. It's already free of thought." In You Cannot Think Your Way Home, Gangaji invites us to stop following the next thought and fall into the living silence that is the truth of who we are. When our search for home through thoughts, experiences, and attainments truly comes to an end, we discover that we never left home—we are home itself. This episode closes with an invitation to listeners around the globe to step outside the usual rules of a podcast and simply sit together in silence.

Number 3: Being Yourself | Special Presentation of Finding Home: From Disillusionment to Awakening
"I was in that place of 'I give up.' I don't know. And that's a very open place, actually." On this month's episode of Being Yourself: Self-Inquiry with Gangaji, we are honored to share Episode 4 of Finding Home, the six-part audio documentary series that traces Gangaji's spiritual journey. In the fourth episode, From Disillusionment to Awakening, Gangaji reflects on the disappointments, failures, and unexpected turns that led her to India and her life-changing meeting with Papaji. What appeared to be the end of a path became the doorway to a profound awakening. This intimate conversation is both a personal story and a listening journey—an invitation to discover that beneath uncertainty, disappointment, and disillusionment lies the possibility of discovering—home is here.

Number 4: Being Yourself | What If Outrage and Despair Are A Doorway?
"I encourage you to let your heart be broken. Waking up to yourself has nothing to do with forgetting the suffering of others as if it never existed." How do we reconcile the recognition of truth and peace with the suffering, cruelty, and devastating loss we see around us or even in our own lives? How do we face real heartbreak given this paradox can't be reconciled in our minds? Rather than turning away from outrage or despair, Gangaji invites a direct meeting with them—and points to the possibility that even outrage and despair can become a doorway to truth. If this exploration speaks to you, you are welcome to continue at gangaji.org, where you'll find resources to support your spiritual inquiry and you can learn more about Gangaji and self-inquiry: • An introductory self-inquiry course • Other episodes of Being Yourself • Monthly Community Video Screenings • Opportunities to meet with Gangaji live online and in person Learn more at Gangaji.org

Number 5: Being Yourself | Return to Who You Already Are
"Thought is a beautiful power that arises in Awareness. If that power is worshipped or if it is hated, then it grows into a tyranny. You are Awareness, not the thought of Awareness, but the reality of Awareness." When we identify with the thoughts and feelings arising in our mind and body, we overlook our true face—awareness itself. Habitually following thoughts with more thoughts is the root of unnecessary suffering. In this monologue, Gangaji shares how it is possible to effortlessly discover that who you are in reality, is free and unthought. Learn more about Gangaji, her schedule, and programs at gangaji.org
