Listen "I Am ... Rupert Spira on the Illusionary Sense of Self"
Episode Synopsis
In his first interview of the series, Jonny travels to Oxford and the home of writer and spiritual teacher, Rupert Spira. Having discovered and resonated with Rupert’s work and teachings a while ago, Jonny is keen to discuss his perception of human potential and transformation. Throughout this enlightening conversation, Rupert draws on a lifetime of investigating the nature of the mind and reality through philosophy as well as his teachings in the ‘direct path’ and non-duality to give insightful and eloquent examples. Together Jonny and Rupert cover a lot of ground, from the fact that so much of our lives are seemingly spent in the quest of happiness, what it means to truly be in the zone as a sportsman, the close correlation between physical body and emotional state and what Rupert calls the Illusory sense of self.To find out more about why Rupert Spira resonated with Jonny when he was exploring this topic, please check out the previous episode “What Am I… Doing Here?”Rupert has a great blog, runs courses, events, or if you want to learn about any of his many great books, then head over to: https://rupertspira.com/Rupert Twitter: @RupertSpiraRupert'sYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxXWjjtATq3OM545gMh9PUgOr listen to him on his podcast "Rupert Spira Podcast" Twitter: @JonnyWilkinsonInstagram: @jonnywilkinsonofficial Resources for todays episode:Non-Duality: https://rupertspira.com/
