In this episode, we explore why sponsorship is essential early in sobriety but cannot remain a permanent authority. Through a symbolic dream teaching and references to AA, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Buddha, we look at the shift from borrowed recovery to inner recovery.

Topics include:

• ​ The moment external support must give way to inner guidance.
• ​ The difference between borrowed recovery and inner recovery.
• ​ How fear creates dependence on personalities.
• ​ Why AA teaches reliance on a Power found “deep down within”.
• ​ How to recognize when it’s time to trust your own inner compass.

This episode invites you to return to the guidance of the innermost self — the true source of sober direction.

Step ten turns the attention inward and reveals what is actually operating beneath our thoughts, emotions, and actions. This reflection explores the death of the ego, the practice of daily inventory, and the importance of aligning outer behavior with inner honesty. The focus is on sincere self-observation, responsibility, and the inner work that restores clarity and integrity.

This entry is offered for those walking the path of sobriety who seek deeper understanding beyond appearances and want to see the roots of their suffering through a disciplined and esoteric lens.

In this episode, we explore a practical way to practice Steps One, Two, and Three of Alcoholics Anonymous, not as ideas or slogans, but as lived experience.

Through a scene that arose in meditation, the episode reflects on honesty, hope, and surrender, and the daily choice between self-will and reliance on a Higher Power.

Big Book passages from pages 60 through 62 are read and reflected upon, showing how quitting self-direction and inviting a Director changes how life is lived, moment by moment.

This is a short, contemplative episode meant to leave space for reflection.
