What is non-duality?

Suffering is a misunderstanding
Suffering arises from a misunderstanding of one’s true nature. Magdi suggests that suffering is rooted in the illusory belief in a separate, personal self, or ‘me’. This ‘me’ is often identified with the body, mind, personal history, and various roles (e.g., father, mother, son, daughter). This identification leads to feelings of limitation, lack, and separation.

Ai: How real is our experience?
Magdi emphasizes the fundamental unity of all existence in consciousness. The path to liberation lies in recognizing our true nature as formless awareness, releasing identification with the personal self, and embracing the impersonal unfolding of reality. This understanding provides a framework for navigating the challenges of life with greater peace, love, and acceptance.
