Episode notes
Beyond Binary Thinking
- Dualistic thinking narrows perception by forcing binary labels and judgments that block subtlety and nuance.
- Mystical or third-way awareness transcends and includes both construction and deconstruction to reveal deeper truth.
Let Reality Be Without Analysis
- Let reality approach you without immediate analysis to experience moments as they are rather than through judgment.
- Practice moving beyond aversion and attraction to avoid attachments that create suffering.
Rational Mind Hits A Ceiling
- The rational mind fails at the biggest human questions like love, death, and suffering.
- Nondual awareness or contemplative mind can hold these limits and open to deeper meaning.
