Awake - Living Non-Dualism in a Dualistic World

Why Seeking Is Necessary Even After Waking Up


Listen Later

You've had a glimpse of your True Nature (my story in Episode 1) - now what? Does the seeking stop? For me, it's been 98 days of a fascinating paradox: knowing more than ever while feeling like I know nothing at all. This episode tackles the question: Is seeking necessary even after awakening? Why does that human curiosity persist, that desire to understand the depths of non-duality? I explore my own journey of wanting to learn more, the potential pitfall of creating a convenient "Mr. Potatohead" non-dual philosophy, and the liberating power of approaching understanding through experimentation rather than belief. Join me as I challenge the common advice to stop seeking and embrace the unique adventure of our unfolding consciousness. And a special thank you to Gwen for inspiring this continued exploration!

Key elements incorporated into these descriptions:

  • Reference to Episode 1 for context.
  • Highlighting the paradox of knowing and not knowing after awakening.
