Meditation and the Illusion of Self

Who are you really? Throughout our lives we are conditioned into a sense of self that is constituted, ultimately, by thought and memory. Here I try to entertain the idea that our “true self” transcends this. That is, rather than being just a “homo sapien” with a certain age, gender or nationality - you are also something that transcends the finite categorisation of our thought structures. Thought, whilst useful, limits and reduces the complexity of who we truly are. In other words, you are the Mystery first and foremost, and it is through meditative inquiry that one can explore this mysterious and inexhaustible depth to the Self. #nonduality #meditation #mindfulness #philosophy #psychedelic #advaitavedanta #mind
