Third Eye on the Prize
Welcome to Third Eye on the Prize
A portal for presence in a world addicted to appearances.
Short honest talks on the perplexing, splendid mess of being a human right now.
Increasing numbers of us are having awakening experiences, getting glimpses into the truth that spiritual masters have been telling us about for centuries: that we’re not really separate from one another or the rest of Creation; the separateness is an illusion.
This is not easy to digest but it’s a central paradox of life: we have one reality in this body that exists in time and is dissolving and another one beyond it, beyond body, personality, and personal story.
How do we navigate this duality in a practical way? By walking what’s called the Middle Path or the Middle Way, a central idea in the Buddhist tradition. But we don’t have to be Buddhists to apply this wisdom in daily life. We do, however, have to practice, as best we can, being present, not getting lost in memories from the past or thoughts about the future, not getting stuck grasping at things or pushing them away.
I’m Debra Sansone, poet, artist, and teacher, and host of Third Eye on the Prize.
I'd be honored to have you join me on this exploration.

Third Eye on the Prize
Discomfort is Our Teacher
The lessons we resist are often the ones we need the most.
We spend so much of life trying to avoid discomfort — yet it’s often the very thing that teaches us the most. In this episode, I share stories and reflections on how unease, resistance, and struggle can open unexpected doors into presence and growth.
In This Episode
- Why discomfort is not the enemy but an unexpected guide
- How struggle can sharpen awareness and bring us back to presence
- The paradox of growth: why ease rarely transforms us the way challenge does
TRUTH IS BEYOND BELIEF
