Behind the Layers of Self

What do you find when you peel back the layers of who you think you are? Adyashanti invites us beyond the abstract world created by the mind’s definitions of self and the world. Through a brief talk and dialogues, he points to the essential nothingness of our true nature that is simultaneously the totality of existence.
