Are you ready to challenge the very foundations of what you believe reality to be?

Reality is not what you think is (or perceive it to be). In this episode, we break down the illusory nature of the world around us and the concept of non-duality to get a clear picture of what true reality is.

Drawing from Eastern philosophy and the latest in science, we unravel the layers of reality as we know it. We discuss:

- The concept of Maya and the illusion of the world as perceived by our senses

- How our brain constructs our experience of colors, sounds and the entire world around us

- The role of perception in shaping our decisions and behaviors

- The philosophical and practical implications of non-dualism in daily life
