" the only suffering is un investigated beliefs", but he gives no way really that is systematic for people to go in and deal with the shadow side or all the thoughts......I needI want I shouldhe shouldn't etche helped someone with "atma vichara" who am I, and encouraged someone to ask themselves what is my deepest fears etc. this I felt was going in the right direction and helpful.its still nice to hear this kind of satsang.. good to have understanding as wellthis wont make sense to you unless you are really caught in the suffering like someone of the questioners last night.. I really could relate and thansk God I have katie, the sedona method and shadow work. just doing "who am I " or lsitening to advatia talks are good entertainment but for going deep into mental patterns to release them. I think a lot more needs to be done. he seemed to say the say thing but doesnt give much direction.
