Too many of us are stuck on the treadmill of consumer spirituality, clinging to the illusion that we are in charge of our own spiritual growth and development. But the path of true transformation, according to Enneagram teacher Hunter Mobley, isn't in doing more, but in doing less—in letting go of control and adopting a contemplative posture that will naturally lead us to our true self.



Most of us focus our Enneagram work on trying to overcome the passion of our Enneagram number. Sometimes referred to as the "sin," this is the expression of our personality that habitually gets us into trouble and blocks us from growth. The lesser-known virtues, on the other hand, describe the God-image in us and are the best articulations of our true selves. The Enneagram mystery—hiding in plain sight—is that how we have come to know ourselves (reflected by our passion) is the opposite of who we truly are (which is reflected by our virtue). We don't have to struggle against our passion; we can simply let go and embrace the virtue that has always been at our center.



Letting Go, Finding You will show how a contemplative spiritual path, informed by the Enneagram, will allow you to finally stop striving after false promises and start surrendering to the truest version of yourself.
