Readings for Week 5
1. Nothing Personal? Check out the Nothing Personal: Seeing Beyond The Illusion Of A Separate Self, on Amazon, and the titles of the related links.
This book is called “Nothing Personal: Seeing Beyond The Illusion Of A Separate Self.”
That is almost correct. ‘Nothing Personal’ at Level 1 Personal (that of Separate Self) transcends Separate Self to True Self — and then the Personal comes back online as Unique Self.
That distinction was lost in classic enlightenment teaching, as we discussed in Week 1 of the
course. It is a critical distinction to regain if the Democratization of Enlightenment is to mean
anything…and it must!
