Think Like a Monk - Jay Shetty (The Impure Mirror of the Mind) (Episode #49, 16 Sept. 2021)

In this episode, we cover ceto darpana marjanam, the impure mirror of the mind.   Do you really know you are, or are you living out someone else's version of you?   This a topic that seems so obvious on its face.  Of course, we know who we are, but so many live in a haze of emotional, financial and time clutter.  Here we channel, Marcus Aurelius and Marie Kondo to help us assess what is truly essential in our lives and what does not matter.    I discuss some of my experiences at the peak of my own emotional clutter, and my own story about seeing myself more clearly.  I also offer some suggestions about auditing your own time and finding the stillness to see yourself more clearly, the true you.   Shetty's book is just so awesome.  Buy and read it.  More importantly, apply it.  If you don't have time to read it, I will be covering some essential concepts in the coming days from Shetty's book, "Think Like a Monk".  Whoa, I LOVE THIS BOOK!!
