Enlightenment as Objective Observation

In this podcast episode, the host discusses the concept of enlightenment as the ability to objectively observe both the world and oneself. Drawing from the book 'Awareness' by Anthony D'Amello, the host explains that true enlightenment comes when we can see reality without the distortion of our emotions. By separating the 'I' as the observer and the 'me' as the labels we put on ourselves, we can avoid getting caught up in the unhappiness that comes with identifying too strongly with these labels. This practice allows us to look at the world and ourselves objectively, leading to a greater sense of peace and clarity.
