Understanding the Axial Aspect of Perception

The axial aspect refers to the central part of experience that one perceives to be their ground of being, yet is often challenging to fully grasp. This aspect can evolve from a sense of self to a witness or even nothingness, remaining solid and elusive. The term aims to help individuals explore and relate to different facets of their experience, independent of specific content.
