The Leap of Faith: How Trust Transforms Your Spiritual Path

33 min • 25 juni 2024

“When we are on a path of spiritual awakening, we are going to be required at some point to take a leap of faith. The spiritual path is a path of learning to trust in something that we cannot see, that our mind cannot know, that we cannot control. From one point of view, trust and faith are the entire path.”
—Craig Hamilton


In “The Leap of Faith: How Trust Transforms Your Spiritual Path,” Craig explores the concept of trust and the leap of faith often associated with spiritual awakening. The journey of spiritual transformation is closely tied to our ability to trust in a mystery that our minds can never fully grasp. But for many modern seekers, the idea of spiritual faith is laden with skepticism and doubt.

In this episode, Craig examines the fundamental questions: Who or what exactly are we being asked to have faith in? In an unpredictable cosmos, what can we truly trust? He explores what living a life of deep faith and trust looks like in practice and addresses why fear and resistance are natural responses. He also addresses how these emotions play a role in our spiritual journey.

Additionally, Craig shares an approach to meditation practice that can help cultivate the kind of trust and faith that supports a spiritually awakened life in action.

This episode includes a contemplation exercise, which can also be done as a journal exercise, so you may want to have a piece of paper and a pen ready before you tune in.
