About this episode

The episode explores the concept of seeking in spirituality and the challenges of understanding what one is truly looking for.

Seeking ends when you find what you are looking for. The difficulty in spirituality is that we don't know what we're looking for. Of course, we think we do and we give it names like enlightenment or spiritual awakening, but we don't know and can't know until we stumble upon in a moment of non-striving. The challenge is that this person who wants to wake up is what we wake up from, which is as difficult as your own tongue trying to lick itself.
