Ask The Direct Identity Question
- Ask yourself, "What is my experience of identity?" and intentionally turn attention inward without relying on concepts.
- If thoughts arise, notice them and redirect attention back to the direct felt sense of identity.
Beyond Conceptual Identity
- The question bypasses philosophical thinking and points you beyond conceptuality to what is immediate.
- This reveals a primary sense of self that thought cannot capture or name.
