It’s Not What It Seems: How the Mind Creates Fear from Memory | Satsang with Nataraj

“One moment terror and the next moment relief and then joy… but really what happened? Nothing.”
-Nataraj

This moment captured in Satsang with Nataraj on 07/21/2025 in Asheville, NC.

In this powerful #SatsangWithNataraj, we explore how the mind’s memory can trap us in cycles of fear, trauma, and distorted perception. Using vivid stories of walking through the woods and near-encounters with danger, Nataraj reveals the subtle ways our past imprints on our present experience—sometimes causing suffering where none exists. This teaching offers deep insight into #fear and the illusion of control, showing how our distorted lens clouds awareness and keeps us caught in the stories of the mind.

Discover how the mind creates visceral responses from memory alone, how #Perception shapes our reality, and the compassionate truth that this isn’t our fault—it’s the nature of the system we live in. This #SpiritualReflection invites you to step back from conditioned reactions and awaken to what is actually present moment-to-moment.

Learning to see through the “distorted lens of perception,” moving beyond old trauma patterns, and cultivating freedom with #Mindfulness, #SelfInquiry, and #Presence. This satsang is a profound exploration of suffering’s roots and the path toward liberation.

Main themes:

The interplay of memory and perception in creating suffering

The nature of trauma and PTSD from a spiritual perspective

The gap between experience and reaction

Cultivating compassion for the self amidst conditioned fear

Awakening beyond the stories the mind tells us
