Nonduality is interconnected. When you step out of duality, you don’t end up floating around in some sort of nebulous field of nothingness, overwhelmed by goodness and happiness.

Nondualy is Dynamic
Nonduality is dynamic. One of the consequences of the heavy conditionings that we’re all subjected to our whole lives is that it dampens our spirit; it holds us down because then we’re so much more easily controlled. Awakening out of that reveals a dynamic being who is fully involved in life with each other. This …
Nonduality is Responsible
Nonduality is responsible. We don’t want to think about things like that, do we? We want nonduality to give us freedom from all bounds, right? But what is your actual normal, authentic self like?

We Need Aunties
We need aunties if we want to be real human beings. You’re like, “What? Isn’t this supposed to be about nonduality?” Well yeah, aunties, all the women that make life happen for each of us are life itself. This is part of the fullness of being a human being. One of the reasons why we …
Embracing the Nondual State
Embracing the nondual state should make you laugh because when we look at ourselves honestly, we’re funny human beings. We do crazy things, right? We can come up with concepts to divide ourselves from life. The more we argue about self, the sillier and crazier we are. Nonduality says, “Not two; you are not two.” …
