    Awareness Explorers episode 218: Scott Flynn, Guest Explorer In this episode we talk to Scott Flynn, about how non-dual teaching helps people let go of their false sense of individual identity by recognizing that the ego is just a collection of thoughts that can be dissolved through self-inquiry and resting in one's true nature. • Includes a guided meditation helping us to turn our attention to the experience of "I Am" and to see that "I Am" is what you've been searching for your entire life. "I Am" is who you are, and who you are is unconditional love and acceptance.
