About this listen
What does it mean live “in sync with the sacred”? For Tom Stella, it means living an authentic life. It means “stepping to the cadence of the sacred”, which usually requires courage: the courage to be different, to stand out, to be considered odd, and perhaps even a threat by those who find their identity, comfort, and security in the status quo.
The good news is that we can do this within our daily lives. Unlike Thoreau, who felt he had to retreat to Walden Pond “to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach”, we don’t have to retreat to the woods.
According to Stella, authenticity is first and foremost a matter of being attuned and responsive to the sacred within - to an instinct, an intuition, a sixth sense, a deep, voiceless voice that can be "heard" even in a crowd.
This inner guide may, at times, call us to live apart from others, but it surely summons us to follow a road less travelled; that is, to turn away from the conventional wisdom of society, those ways of thinking, believing, and behaving that go unquestioned - busy is good, more is better, success equals wealth.
