Singer suggests that we draw power from staying in the timeless state of the observer and separating ourselves from the monkey mind, asking us how long such a voice would be allowed access to our energy if they were a roommate, considering how persistently obnoxious & reality-blinding it can be. A striking early metaphor is the human dichotomic inner presence: The experiencer of things, full of drama, with a never-ending dialogue, who spins whatever narratives necessary to establish & maintain a comfortable place to process & control reality, trying to protect us by creating a relationship with the world, who sometimes says things we like or feel aligned with but often says things that upset us or leave us feeling drained, and The observer, who is capable of stepping back to make measured assessments
My most recent read, An Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself (2007) is an engaging read that focuses on what it means to free yourself from limitations, exploring people’s relationship with their thoughts and the spiritual source of their energy.
