Enes Trumić grew up in Bosnia afraid of the dark, shy, and experiencing panic attacks no one had a name for. That suffering became the doorway. In this conversation he walks me through a spontaneous café moment where he watched his own life play like a movie, a year as a Hare Krishna monk chanting eight hours a day, and the morning it erupted into what he calls a "mental death": infinite, expandin...

What happens when the very teachings meant to free you become the cage? In this episode of the Minds Eye Morning Show, we examine the premise of non-duality — what it got right, where it went sideways, and why the spiritual search itself can become the problem it's promising to solve. We explore: - Why non-duality frameworks can create more mental fragmentation than peace - The difference between...

Do you actually like the things you like, or are you just chasing a projection of how you think you'll feel? This week, we dig into one of the most destabilizing questions you can ask yourself: what do you really want? In this episode we talk about: Why strong resistance is often the clearest signal about where your ego lives. The "second arrow" — how we take one moment of pain and manufacture a s...

In this conversation, Adam and Reed explore two of the most penetrating voices in non-dual philosophy — Nisargadatta Maharaj and J. Krishnamurti — and what they point to about the nature of freedom, conditioning, and the self that believes it is choosing. We unpack Nisargadatta's radical claim that he is neither th...

during a live stream a viewer asked us: What is the Ultimate Goal of Meditation? and we proceeded to ramble off a response like every other teacher we've ever listened to. We did not explore the question, in the moment, for ourselves. So we took another look at it & this is the result. Have a most excellent day! www.

A simple, practical introduction to self-inquiry. Learn how to explore ego, awareness, and the sense of self through direct experience and everyday life. Self-inquiry is the practice of turning attention inward and asking questions like: Who am I? or, WHAT am I? What is it that’s aware of this moment? What is this “me” that feels like it’s deciding, choosing, and controlling life? When you look fo...
