Depression as a Call to Spiritual Awakening? – Jeff Foster
Thank you Lisa, for recommending this video.
ChatGPT: …depression should not be viewed as a mental illness or sickness, but rather as an invitation to rediscover our boundless nature as awareness or consciousness. Jeff emphasize that who we are is not defined by our thoughts, sensations, or emotions, but rather by the vast ocean of consciousness in which they arise and dissolve. Depression is seen as a loss of interest in being the limited story we have constructed for ourselves, and an opportunity to rest in our authentic selves. He encourages listeners to let go of pretending to be someone they are not and instead embrace their true nature.
