Kensho vs. Satori: How You're Guided Towards Spiritual Awakening | Vishen Lakhiani #shorts

One of the biggest ideas I learned from Beckwith is this concept called Kensho vs Satori. Kensho, says Michael Beckwith, is growth through pain. Satori, says Michael Beckwith, is growth through insight. So if you accept the mental model that you are a soul having a human experience and that to make it fun, the soul forgets that it is truly a soul and puts you in this playground called Planet Earth, then every now and then, the soul might need to autocorrect you. And it's going to autocorrect you in one of two ways. Kensho is autocorrection. True pain. You're not listening. You're stubborn. So the soul is like, okay, I'm going to smack you at the back of your head till you wake up. That is growth. True pain. But there's also growth through insight. And insight is when you are listening. Insight is when you go through introspection. Insight is when you meditate. Insight is when you learn to listen to your heart or intuition. And insight is what you call a satori moment. It's growth through awakening.
