In this #satsang, Nataraj delves into the subtle ways the #ego tricks us into thinking we're preparing to surrender when, in reality, we're just holding on tighter. He shares personal stories about those moments when the Divine knocks, but we're too caught up in our daily tasks to answer. It's a candid look at how we often tell the universe, "Not now, I'm busy," and the importance of recognizing these patterns.​ Nataraj emphasizes the power of #stillness and the space between thoughts as the gateway to true #awakening. He reminds us that meditation isn't about self-improvement but about unlearning and dismantling the illusions the mind creates. By simply being present, without the constant need to do or fix, we open ourselves to genuine transformation.​ This talk is an invitation to meet our attachments and the ego's deceptive strategies with honesty and courage. Nataraj encourages us to drop all pretenses and fully embrace the present moment. It's a heartfelt reminder that the essence of spiritual awakening lies in the simplicity of being, beyond the mind's complexities.
