In this episode we explore the next parable of the master "Unfruitful Fig Tree". Building upon the previous episode; "Faithful and Wise Servants" attempt to understand the dualistic nature of the subconscious in order to differentiate between truth and fallacy. Specifically, we focus on the inevitable contradictions that emerge from the depths of the subconscious and investigate why it is that true seekers struggle with accepting this phenomena. In addition, we look at concrete examples in our everyday lives where the lessons of this parable apply. Ultimately, however, we seek to answer the question of how the truth we hold in the depths of the subconscious eventually moves us toward action.
