Michael Singer Podcast

When we’re open, we feel joy, love, and inspiration; when closed, we feel heavy, sad, and lifeless. Most people try to fix these varying states by outwardly seeking what makes them feel good and avoiding what makes them feel bad. But spirituality asks, why we are not always okay inside? 

The reason is that consciousness, the true self, becomes distracted by the objects of its awareness—thoughts, emotions, and external events—and identifies with them. This false identification forms the sense of “I” with all its likes and dislikes, causing the outer world to determine the state of the inner one. As we relax and release these stored preferences, our inner energy flows freely, restoring our natural state of joy, love, and union with the divine.

E134: Why You Feel Open or Closed—The Real Meaning of Spiritual Growth

There are two viable spiritual paths: one is reaching upwardly to touch your higher self, and the other is working inwardly to release the blockages that keep you bound to your lower self. The latter encourages radical self-honesty, acceptance of reality, and daily inner work to stop resisting life and start letting go of stored blockages that create suffering. Through this surrender-based path, the natural upward flow of energy is restored, leading to lasting well-being, freedom from disturbance and, ultimately, full spiritual liberation.

E133: Freedom Through Surrender — The Real Work of the Spiritual Path

Spirituality is not about blind faith but about our deep understanding of the truth: suffering arises because we resist or cling to specific experiences and then struggle to avoid them or make them happen again. Our personal preferences are shaped by past events that could have unfolded differently, and liberation comes from recognizing this and ceasing to cling to past impressions. As we release these inner blockages, Shakti flows freely, revealing our true nature as divine consciousness, untouched by circumstance.

E132: Beyond Faith — The Logic of Letting Go

At its core, right understanding means focusing on the difference between consciousness and the objects of consciousness—the one and the many. If we falsely identify with an object, we must deal with the inner energy generated by that identification. Resisting that energy causes stored impressions that shape our preferences, desires, and suffering. Permitting the energy to pass through allows us to accept reality as it unfolds and honor the pain, joy, and mystery of life as a vehicle for growth and liberation. This is the essence of self-realization and the path to enlightenment.

E131: Right Understanding — The Journey Back to the Self

Consciousness is the most important aspect of existence, without which nothing has meaning. We suffer because we contract our awareness onto one small, self-centered point of creation—our own thoughts, emotions, and preferences—rather than letting consciousness remain open and expansive. Daily life becomes a spiritual path by using our relationships, experiences, and internal reactions as opportunities to stop focusing on our egos and begin allowing consciousness to remain open, free, and in harmony with all that is.

E130: Ceasing to Contract Consciousness

The spiritual journey begins not with lofty mystical pursuits but with the practical, inner decision to handle reality as it unfolds. Most of our suffering stems from our inability to deal with inner energies that arise due to past events we have stored for years. By learning to stay present, let go, and work with these energies, we purify ourselves and allow shakti to flow freely, eventually reaching a state of inner liberation and wholeness.

E129: Using Daily Moments for Spiritual Growth

Life’s purpose is to evolve by using every experience to remove the limitations created by your personal fears, desires, and judgments that obscure your inherent radiance. Evolution begins by accepting life’s challenges, instead of resisting them, and growing into a greater being because of them. Life is like a Divine Sculptor chipping away the dross of your personal self in order to reveal the magnificence of your true Self.

E128: Chiseled by Life — The Purpose of Every Moment

Our lives are governed by the programming from our past experiences that create preferences, defenses, and closures which block the natural upward flow of shakti. Spiritual work is learning to not close—releasing stored disturbances, relaxing in the face of triggers, and practicing openness in ordinary situations until we experience unconditional well-being. Sustained openness liberates your inner energy, leading to overwhelming love, joy, and, ultimately, spiritual union.

E127: Unconditional Well-Being — The Practice of Non-Closing

The mind’s natural state is pure, quiet, and expansive, but it appears restless because of unresolved experiences that were not allowed to pass through. These stored impressions generate the personal mind, a constant stream of likes, dislikes, fears, and desires that you mistake as “you”. Liberation comes through the daily practice of handling life’s experiences and living from the witness rather than from these stored impressions.

E126: Work at the Root—Why the Mind Is Restless

Life is extraordinarily simple: we are conscious beings living on a tiny planet spinning through vast empty space for a very short period of time. We did not create our bodies nor the rest of nature that surrounds us, yet we try to own and manipulate them, believing our happiness depends on controlling life. But true happiness comes from learning to handle reality, then working with it to create something beautiful. This involves practicing openness, letting go of past blockages, and refusing to build a self-concept out of personal likes and dislikes. By doing so, we rediscover our natural shakti flow and evolve into beings who can live with love and freedom instead of suffering.

E125: The Simplicity of True Spirituality—Learning to Handle Life

Life is a spiritual journey where every experience serves as an opportunity for growth and evolution. The core of human suffering stems from attachment to the ego and resistance to the natural flow of life. By recognizing that we are not our egos but are instead the divine consciousness that is aware of the ego, we can transcend suffering and embrace inner peace. The ultimate purpose of life is spiritual liberation, achieved by letting go of resistance, aligning with reality, and embracing love and compassion in all circumstances.
