Episode #5. Life lessons

The School for Mystics

We never really know what is going to change our lives, it could be anything at any given moment. Oftentimes a very challenging and difficult situation becomes the catalyst for a change of trajectory in our life, and only later, looking back, can we understand its importance and be grateful for it. Have you ever experienced such grace in a situation that seemed negative at first sight? In this fifth podcast we will share with you two such stories, ones that enclose the bitter-then-sweet taste of remarkable lessons brought to us by teachers and life, that began looking difficult but ended up being gems in and for our journey. You will learn: How Marina found herself in a Thai monastery in the middle of nowhere, In which ways the mysterious word the Buddhist nun kept repeating to her, -“Iddappacayata”, which means interconnectedness of life- has changed her life completely. What Misha found in an $18 Byron Katie’s book that has shown him the real world, And why a long-term MBA-training for $ 250,000 cannot compete with Byron’s lessons. Marina and Misha will share with you what they’ve discovered -and keep discovering- thank to those crucial moments. You will also learn how to distort your understanding of life in order not to distort reality. Interesting? The answers are waiting for you in this episode.
