Holy Indifference
•
Jeff Lehn
Today's episode is about "holy indifference," a posture for living articulated by Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556) in his book, "The Spiritual Exercises."
For Ignatius, "holy indifference" does not mean not caring. But it's about not being attached - to money, to status, to health - to maintain a stance of being engaged without being enmeshed, connected without being consumed. It's about knowing where we end and another person begins. About discerning what is ours to do and then surrendering the rest.
