The Possibility in Ruthless Compassion
from The Possibility in the Universe Hosted by Rivky Gross and Chani Frankel
In this episode, Chani and Rivky unpack the concept of "ruthless compassion", a term Rivky coined to describe the practice of holding an unwavering vision of someone's essence even when they desperately want you to believe their limiting stories about themselves, as well as to describe the embodied experience of having unwavering compassion. Through personal experience and identity work, the hosts demonstrate how we create from whatever indentity we identify with, and how most people are creating from their feelings, their awareness, or their wounds rather than from essence itself. Rivky introduces a practice for returning to presence and creating from essence, guiding listeners through the steps of recognizing awareness, feeling without judgment, stewarding energy, and ultimately landing in "I am that I am." This episode is an invitation to recognize that you are not your awareness, not your feelings, not your creations, not even who you believe yourself to be. You are simply an aspect of the divine, and having ruthless compassion for yourself helps you go back to that over and over again.
