Was listening to reflecting on some of the most common assumptions he noticed people hold during workshops. I put those into a checklist and thought it might be useful to share it here. 1. I'm over here; you're over there.
2. Emotions are caused by external circumstances.
3. I AM my emotions. If you're threatening my emotions, you're threatening ME.
4. Considering the world from a psychological perspective. When I view some behaviour, it is based in psychology (caused by trauma, past, need for a healing process, etc.)
5. We are all one. I am consciousness, and I am everything.
6. Scientific assumptions. DNA as God.
7. (about spiritual paths) All roads lead to the same place.
I catch myself holding some of these assumptions, so it was helpful to hear Brendan and his co-host articulate them so I could see them more clearly.
