When one is searching for Truth, there is a fundamental misunderstanding that something is missing or lacking. It is only when this searching, this seeker, is completely exhausted that one can see that the seeking itself was the only thing standing in the way of freedom, awakening, Truth. This backwards step is seeing the seeker or the "me" for what it is: an illusory obstacle obscuring the freedom that is fundamentally what one is. In this episode, Bird and Henry share personal experiences and anecdotes of coming to this understanding, and the ways they've each searched until the seeker threw up its hands in defeat. We're not here to wake you up, to enlighten you, or to heal you. Our invitation is to come and see for yourself what's True. Welcome back to the void!
