Hello everyone. Welcome to the work. Welcome to Self-Inquiry. My guest today is Darren,

and what a delight. I don't know anyone sitting in on this that didn't fall in love with Darren and I certainly want the same for you.

So he's an artist and the gallery that he loves, has had the choice of choosing him or his friend.

And they chose his friend and he's really going through it

and self-inquiry I'm telling you it is magic that turned out to be a great gift not being chosen

and so what do you think let me know let me

know let's sit together and find out welcome to the work

hello dears hello hello hello I'm so happy to see you of you are new to the work today in this community,

together we identify the thoughts that cause all the suffering in our world,

everything from just mild irritation to full-blown.

Yeah, to identify what we're thinking and believing when we're experiencing

those emotional moments and what we say and what we do

and the guilt we feel on the other side of it

and we feel so justified in what we said and did. Oh my, you know, just

those of you knew to the work, you know, there is, you know, the cause of suffering. We can

identify it, move it from our head, with the thoughts from our head to paper on that Judge and Neighbor worksheet and then question it.

Open our minds and question what we were thinking and believing in that situation.

And, you know, I could, it's a kind of clarity that takes place and life becomes a kind of, you know, from hell to a gift or to a gift. You know, life is a gift. And this work is about all of us together, questioning anything

that would cost us from that awareness and to see who we are without the thought.

And that doesn't mean going into denial or stopping the thought. And that doesn't mean going into denial

or stopping the thought.

This is about understanding the ego.
