#107 Spiritual Curiosity & Religion Resistance
The Joyful DVM Podcast: Empowering Veterinary Professionals02/04/23 • 35 min
Are you spiritually curious but hesitant when it comes to traditional religion?
Or maybe you're very grounded in your traditional religious practices, but wondering about the stuff that never gets covered...
I can totally relate.
It's a strange situation to navigate.
So many rules.
Such high stakes.
Overwhelming. Scary.
It's the perfect reminder of how our physical, human minds prefer the familiar, to the unknown.
It's also the most important reason why we must gather information anyway.
There comes a point in our lives that we are drawn to a greater understanding of our own existence.
Have you felt it?
For most it happens once we've achieved those initial goals we've set... usually early adulthood when we've settled into a job and are a few years into our lives "in the real world".
It starts as discontent (is this all there is?).
It continues as curiosity.
And that's the point that, for many of us, it turns to fear.
(We are conditioned to be afraid of what we don't understand.)
When we give into the fear, and stagnate in our lives, the discontent doesn't fade away... it compounds.
For many of us, we turn this awareness of unhappiness on ourselves.
(I must be broken... why can't I just be happy with what I have?)
The reason... you aren't meant to sit still!
You'll never reach the "end" of your development as a human or satisfy your curiosity about life...
There is always more to learn.
The tricky part, in my experience, is finding a safe place to do it.
Well, my friend, I have you covered there! Check out this episode to learn all about my new mini-course: Spiritual Seeker 101.
