Mark Flashen and I met in the Amazon rainforest this year. He is a strategy and management consultant & coach based in NY and initiator of ‘The Schole’ – an inquiry into the nature of being.
In today’s conversation it’s all about:
Nature of Self-Inquiry:
Self-inquiry is an exploration into the unknown, emphasizing the importance of approaching it without preconceived ideas or expectations. This approach allows for a deeper exploration of questions that arise, fostering a journey of discovery rather than seeking definitive answers.
The Self and Language:
We examine the interconnection between the ‘self’ and language. It posits that our perception and understanding of the self are heavily influenced, if not constructed, by the language we use. This suggests that self-identity is dynamic and shaped by linguistic frameworks, rather than being a static entity.
Perception, Reality, and Existence:
We explore the relationship between perception, reality, and language, suggesting that our understanding of reality and self may be more a product of linguistic constructs than an objective truth. This leads to broader contemplation on existence, the illusion of separation, and the interconnectedness of all things.
