In this podcast, we explore two fundamental ways of seeing the world. We start with duality—the common experience of a world made of separate things like 'me' and 'you,' mind and body. Then, we delve into non-duality, or Advaita, the idea from various philosophical and spiritual traditions that this separation is an illusion and that everything is fundamentally one. We'll touch upon ideas from Western thinkers like Plato and Descartes, Eastern traditions such as Advaita Vedanta, Taoism, and Buddhism, and discuss how these concepts relate to meditation practices and our understanding of consciousness.
