Jealousy, Selfishness and Polyamory
Manage episode 296689865 series 2879506
Our first Ask Thom Anything episode was such a hit that we’re making it a regular feature.
In this episode, Thom talks about how to respond to the jealousy of others when we’re following our own evolutionary path, including a delightful background story to how Guru Dev stubbornly followed his own evolutionary path at a very young age.
He also discusses the self-love trend and how to recognize the distinction between self-ish-ness and Self-ness.
Polyamory and monogamy are also addressed, with Thom taking the opportunity to outline the role of a ‘love alliance’ and shared mission in intimate relationships.
