Navigating the Human Predicament with Duncan Trussell

"The game is not to push away the world, the game is not to get caught in it—the game is to, as Christ said, ‘Be in the world, but not of the world,’ to be simultaneously empty and full, to be somebody and nobody. It’s all these paradoxes you have to embrace. There’s nothing to do, so get on with it.” – Ram Dass Duncan Trussell joins the Ram Dass fellowship live stream to offer insight and wisdom about the paradoxes of being human on a spiritual path. All of us seem to be born into the experience of separateness - complex ideas about who and what we are. The conditioning that comes along with that sense of "somebodiness" is what we are each contending with virtually all of the time. It’s our curriculum, and everybody’s enrolled. The least we can do is acknowledge or remind ourselves that this is part of the predicament of being human. This "being human" and embracing our humanity might very well be one of the paradoxes of life that leads us back to our ever-present soul and sense of oneness with the whole. With authenticity and humor, Duncan explores the paradoxes of living in the world today on many channels simultaneously - body, personality, ego, soul.
