Vairagya - Spontaneous Non-attachment

Detachment is frequently sold as a necessary step for spiritual progress. We’re taught that attachment is often the root of our suffering, so it stands to reason therefore, that detachment will bring about the opposite of suffering.But as Thom explains in this podcast episode, it’s an understandable yet inaccurate conclusion that actually causes more suffering.Thom brings clarity to the subject, using the Vedic concept of vairagya, a state of being that allows us to fully enjoy the fruits of life, without the bondage of attachment.Episode Highlights[00:45] Maharishi Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras[02:56] Siddhis - Developing Extraordinary Human Capabilities[05:36] A Spontaneous State of Non-attachment[09:48] A Witnessing Phenomenon[12:55] A Consequence of the Practice of Vedic Meditation[16:23] An Indication of Cosmic Consciousness[19:08] The Freedom of Spontaneous Non-attachmentUseful [email protected] https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
