Show Notes

Buddha’s profound statement, “You are not who you think you are,” invites us to re-examine our deeply ingrained beliefs about our identity. Many of us carry a fixed sense of self, convinced that this is our unchanging essence. However, in a compelling teaching delivered during the New Year, Kadam Morten encourages us to delve deeper into this notion of self. He guides us to question the very nature of our identity and illuminates how our perceptions shape and continuously redefine who we are. By embracing this understanding, we can experience a profound sense of liberation, freeing ourselves from the constraints of a static self-image.
