58 分钟The things that we long for, love, real wisdom, deep insight, creative self expression, those are not things we can manufacture.
They are only things that we can receive.
They just arise when there is space sometimes.
So if you're interested in those things, meditation is a really good practice.
And something like the enneagram, which helps you let go of the things you don't like about yourself and the things you like about yourself to just see yourself.
Very helpful in creating that very fertile space of receptivity where everything we really want is already there.
Okay, so when you hear the word Enneagram, you likely have one of three replies.
Oh, yay.
Can't get enough of the enneagram.
That would be one.
Oh, please, another podcast about the enneagram.
That would be two.
Or, um, what's the enneagram?
Well, no matter where you fall on that spectrum, good news.
You are about to discover one of the most powerful personal insight tools ever created, and in a way you have never heard it explained before.
Not just as a tool for personal awakening and transformation, but also as a game changing lever to transform your personal and professional relationships, see things you never saw, understand people with a depth you never imagined possible, and affect change in the state of culture, society, the world, even this conversation with a member of my chosen family, legendary buddhist teacher, founder of the Open Heart Project, and New York Times best selling author Susan Piber.
It'll not only rock your understanding of the Enneagram.
If you had one before, it may well change your life.
And it's all about her groundbreaking synthesis of the Enneagram and Buddhism.
Or as Susan calls it, the Buddhist Enneagram, which also happens to be the title of her equally revelatory new book.
