SIN030 - Ending of Self EP - Snippets

@haryshanthi - Ending of Self EP Label - @sinchicollective Pre-order link - https://haryshanthi.bandcamp.com/album/ending-of-self Catalogue No: 030 Release Date: 17-04-2026 Inspired by the book "The Ending of Time" by J.Krishnamurti & David Bohm, this compositions delves into the illusion of the constructed self, the “me” shaped by thought and psychological time. Through the movement of sound, J. Krishnamurti asks: Man has taken a wrong turn? Why has he created the “I”? Is the illusion of the self, the “I,” the root cause of chaos and fragmentation, and can we transcend this to perceive the truth of oneness? A multidisciplinary approach is not ornament. Sound alone cannot reveal wholeness. Uma Sharma's hand-painted vision observes without the image; Gaëtane August's poem is total attention and in that attention, silence speaks; 8-Bit Culprit's remix dissolves the centre and reimagines. Together, they invite the listener to see that "the observer is the observed" — that "the observer is the cause of division, because the observer is the past, the conditioned entity." When this is seen, not as an idea but as an actual fact, the seeing itself brings freedom. ____breaking orbit. is this echo or are we cause? ask your ego. who is I, anyway, that flickering mask in the great play? disguised as silence slipping through selves raging like thunder bumping thumping bruising the source feeding into fractures until all of I is gone. ____flatlined or fully aligned? warped into a wormhole without spacetime who breathes this? it is not I. I is problem I is conflict I am you. I is survival I is pulse I am source. I is division the observer, the observed I is illusion, its intricate dissolution. if there is no ego, there is no survival if there is no ego, there is no conflict if there is no ego, there is just this.
