In this episode I talk to Charlie, who went through Liberation Unleashed process some years ago.  In our conversation with Charlie we explore his perspective on ego and it’s roles.  Charlie shares about his experience with addiction and how awakening has impacted his everyday life. 

Just a little side not about term “Gating”, that he uses. At Liberation unleashed and in my books I use a concept of the Gateless Gate. We refer to The initial recognition of the absence of a separate self as crossing the Gateless gate. Word Gating is used as a term for the initial awakening.

In this episode I talk to Luchana Uzunova. You may know her from numerous interviews she had with seekers and explorers for Nothing FM, Liberation Unleashed and on her own platforms. Luchana is a guide on Liberation unleashed and in this conversation we reflect on what awakening is not based on the list that was made by LU guides to help seekers to uncover expectations of awakening. 

To get the most out of this dialogue press pause and reflect by yourself before listening to our responses and reactions. You may want to have a pen and paper ready to write down what you think and feel for deeper interactive experience and more focused self-inquiry.

The story of Luchana' s life ended while having a guided conversation in the Liberation Unleashed forum. And that was it – the most simple and magnificent discovery ever – there never was a Luchana to begin with. Just life, as always, doing its thing. She is guiding  with joy, love and softness, but she is also a little bit firm when it is needed. 
Luchana guides mainly by video which due to feedback seems to be more direct and immediate.

You can reach out to Luchana through her website

In the fifth part of the series of self-inquiry questions Sarah shares her latest insights in her process. We talk about awakening and how it is presented versus how it feels in reality. We discover her heart’s longing for freedom and fear as an obstacle to it. We dive into the heart and investigate further what is going on there. We look deeply at what is arising and how to meet the emotions. Sarah spends some time with fear and sadness, allowing and honouring these emotions. We talk about how language creates a postcard like view of objects and how it does not describe the free flow process of life. We follow the path to freedom and explore what is going on in the heart.

In the fourth part of the series of self-inquiry questions, we explore a shift in perception. What we see depends on where we are looking from. When point of view shifts, nothing changes in the view, but everything looks different.

In the third part of the series of self-inquiry questions, we explore what it means to stop looking outside and turn to what is already here now. Noticing silence of being and movement that arises in being, just like sounds arise in silence. 

Sarah is exploring her experience of the present moment and you are invited to explore with her too. As you listen to the thought-provoking questions and pointers, press pause and engage in your own inner inquiry.

In the second part of the self-inquiry questions series, we explore thoughts, their origin, how they arise, where the thoughts and images are perceived and if there is control over that. 

During our conversation, Sarah has gained a deeper understanding of how thoughts arise independently, often triggering emotions and physical responses within her. She has come to realize that she does not actively choose her thoughts; they simply emerge on their own accord. 

Sarah has also observed how her body reacts to certain painful memories or recurring thoughts, highlighting the connection between her mind and physical sensations. However, she has recognized that these thoughts and emotions are beyond her control. They arise spontaneously, without her ability to determine their content or timing. 

Additionally, Sarah has noticed that her thoughts can manifest as mental images or visualizations, appearing on a metaphorical "mind screen" in her surrounding space. These thoughts and images seem to arise and dissipate autonomously, independent of her direct influence or manipulation.

As you listen to the thought-provoking questions and pointers, press pause and engage in your own inner inquiry. Once you know your answer continue listening.
