A deeper dive into the nitty gritty of spiritual awakening. This is the second interview in our series Awakening, Explained with my guest Dr. Angelo DiLullo. Angelo is a practicing anesthesiologist and author of the book "Awake: It's Your Turn." In this episode we discuss the nature of unbound consciousness, the role of inquiry and curiosity in awakening, how "just stop" can be a powerful gateway, the nature of beliefs as a hindrance to awakening, the importance of humility and authenticity on the path, the origins of the sense of "self" in childhood, the nature of non-dual reality/radical intimacy/love, the question “What Is This?” as inquiry, insane comedic interlude featuring constipation/Sesame Street jokes, what are thoughts, how does thought relate to suffering and the creation of a false "self" and much more.  Get Angelo's book and download his free meditation app here.
