Surfing Is A Way Of Life, Part 2

JONZ IS BACK! It's been a year since the last episode, time for the next round of new episodes, let's do it! What is true wealth? Should we get rid of big and little anxieties that knock on the door? Surfing in Alaska is cold, frigid, painful, but an amazing way to surf life better. How do you know if an opportunity in your life is 'good' or 'bad'? How to make decisions. You don't know as much as you think you do!

Finally we talk about why the podcast is called, 'The Invisible World of Jeremy Jonz', thanks Picasso.  Join me for flashbacks when I use to surf in LA and how it helps me surf in my invisible world today.

Show notes:

Great quote mentioned half way through, full quote here: 

“The teachings tell us that obstacles occur at the outer level and at the inner level. In this context, the outer level is the sense that something or somebody has harmed us, interfering with the harmony and peace we thought was ours. Some rascal has ruined it all. This particular sense of obstacle occurs in relationships and in many other situations; we feel disappointed, harmed, confused, and attacked in a variety of ways. People have felt this way from the beginning of time. As for the inner level of obstacle, perhaps nothing ever really attacks us except our own confusion. Perhaps there is no solid obstacle except our own need to protect ourselves from being touched. Maybe the only enemy is that we don’t like the way reality is now and therefore wish it would go away fast. But what we find as practitioners is that nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know. If we run a hundred miles an hour to the other end of the continent in order to get away from the obstacle, we find the very same problem waiting for us when we arrive. It just keeps returning with new names, forms, and manifestations until we learn whatever it has to teach us about where we are separating ourselves from reality, how we are pulling back instead of opening up, closing down instead of allowing ourselves to experience fully whatever we encounter, without hesitating or retreating into ourselves.”
