OQ 106 - Expanding the Self to Include Others: A Meditative Inquiry

In this episode, Elizabeth guides us through a process of inquiry and meditation grounded in the path of the bodhisattva. These teachings provide us with a clear and practical directive for cultivating a healthy relationship with others. We often look at the “ego” as a hindrance to spiritual liberation, but here, the instructions not only suggest that we don’t have to get rid of the ego, but rather make it as big as possible, in order to include others, and make them the recipients of the love and care, we usually only reserve for ourselves.
