Episode 142: A Cognitive Glitch

from The Wonder Land · host Amanda Jones

Today’s episode explores a quiet but destabilizing realization: the “I” cannot be found. It has never been directly experienced, yet it is assumed to stand behind all experience.We examine how this inherited linguistic structure and emotional habit comes to feel essential to seeing, hearing, and feeling—and what becomes obvious when that belief is cut at the root. This conversation points to what is already the case, and the clarity that remains without reference to a central “self.”This Conversation Is for You If • You’re curious about the felt sense of “I” • Self-inquiry keeps circling but not landing • Language feels like it’s doing more than describing • You’re open to clarity without a reference point⸻Become a Patron & Join Our Deep DivesGet early access to course discounts, behind-the-scenes reflections, and exclusive content when you join us on Patreon.👉 https://www.patreon.com/TheWonderLandPodcastLet’s ConnectHave thoughts or questions?
