How can service & spirituality help us overcome depression?
Depression, in the psychological world, is – no kidding – the piece of poop at the center of the universe. Which speaks of two things: Feeling like poop. And, being the center of the universe. It’s a place where we’re alone at the center of this vast universe – separate from others, ourselves and from God – and, a place where we’re unhappy and unsure and unloved by ourselves and, we think, by others. It’s not a nice place to be, to be sure!
In this evocative video, Sadhviji eloquently explains the devastating effects of depression, and how the sense of connection to ourselves, others and to God that spirituality and service provides is the most-effective cure for depression – as well as the best and most beautiful way to live our lives.
