You Are Not The Doer | Freedom From The Illusion Of Control

In this Dharma talk, we explore one of the ego’s most persistent illusions — the belief that I am the personal doer. From washing dishes to chasing purpose, the mind claims each action as “mine,” creating tension, anxiety, and the endless need to get something out of life.

Through Buddhist wisdom and everyday examples, we look at how life is simply activity — movement, unfolding, happening — and how peace is found when we no longer see ourselves as the separate “doer.”

I love and appreciate how you find numerous ways different ways to talk about there is no separate self.. This is such a good talk. I appreciate you so much as a teacher. ✨ I especially got a lot out of the last 20 minutes. I’ve had an interesting week with cold like symptoms, however, my intuitive healer, a dear friend says I have no virus or bacteria in my body. What we realized was, I was literally making myself sick to create a boundary with someone. being with that, and listening/feeling all the sensations in my body has been one of the most transformational and healing times in my life since my husband died. my body is always trying to reveal to me what it needs to heal ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹
