Knowing who you are is dropping the false face. Once you actually know who you are, you don’t need to pretend any longer. Like I was talking about in the last video, it’s simply the lack of confusion. When we don’t know who we are, then we have to pretend. This is because knowing who …

The purpose of my writings
The purpose of my YouTube channel and writings is that I really do think that human beings can wake up… and hopefully I can joke everybody into it.
Nonduality can seem like a really difficult, serious, subject. Hopefully I’m bringing a little bit of fun into the game.
End of Words
So thanks to a commenter on one of my videos, I heard a new definition of Advaita Vedanta that I hadn’t heard before: ‘end of words.’ And this is perfect. Advaita is the word we use to define nonduality. It’s translated as ‘not two’ or ‘not dual’ (not two things, Advaita). What it means is …

Spiritual teachings are important
Spiritual teachings are important because we need to come to a place where we can all live with each other, and with all of reality, easier.

Hopefully this is opening up the reality of who …

Die Before You Die
Die before you die is a Sufi teaching about life. It’s about how to live a life that is ripe and full, free of the oppressive false self. It’s a spiritual practice of awakening the aspect of your being that can never die because it has no separation.
In this short book we will examine different sides of this idea: “Die before you die.” What does it mean? How do we live in this state where we have died before we physically die? We will discover that we are talking about a state of freedom.
