Delusion of Lack and Freedom of Becoming Nobody
By: - Apr 07th, 2026We often treat awakening as a destination—a distant mountain peak we must climb through sheer effort, “magic” mantras, or intellectual gymnastics.

In my work with students, I see this delusion manifest in two primary ways: the Abyss and the Shield.

In the Daoist cosmogony, we move from the Wuji (the Empty Void) to the Taiji (the Supreme Ultimate/Yin and Yang).
