  • Summary

  • This podcast explores the distinction between two aspects of self: the essential self, characterized by unconditioned awareness present from birth, and the personal (ego) self, a constructed identity shaped by experiences and societal conditioning. The ego self narrows our expansive consciousness into patterns and beliefs, obscuring our natural state of openness and wonder.

    Despite this conditioning, moments of connection to the essential self can arise, such as during experiences of flow, presence, or deep connection with nature, art, or others. These moments reveal our innate wholeness but are often fleeting and overlooked, as the ego quickly reasserts itself. Understanding and stabilizing these glimpses into the true self can lead to a more fulfilling and centered life. Join me in discussing and practing the "gap."
